Executive Summary
(u2Eto0l
me Town of Vail Community Development Department and the Public Works Department, with the aid of
vaious outside consuftants, have completed the review of the proposal for the redevelopment of the Vail
Plaza Hotel. Upon completion of your review, the Town staff is recommending apprcval of the proposed
project. The staffs recommendation for approval canies with it 22 conditions. The details of the staff s
recommendation and the recommended conditions can be found in Section lll of this memorandum.
ln evaluating the Woposal, the Town staff relied upon the regulations, policies and guidelines outlined in
the various land-planning related documents adopted by the Town of Vail. Throughout the course of the
development review process staff remained primarily focused on the technicalaspects of the proposal.
The matters of design and policy were left up to the Town's Boards. A detailed nanative of the slaffs
findings based upon the established review criteria is outlined in Seclion VII of this memorandum.
A complete breakdown and technical analysis of the proposal has been prepared. ln the Vail Plaza Hotel
Zonina Analvsis (revised 2f28/00) and the Vail Plaza Hotel Proposal Comoaison (revised 2/28/0O), staff
provides analysis and comparison of the various development slandards prescribed by the Zoning
Regulations and compares the figures of the 2000 proposal to those of the 1999 approval and the 1998
proposal which had been rejected by Town Council nearly one year ago. Also included in the analysis
documents are a Vail Plaza Hotel View Analysis, Vail Plaza Hotel Sun/Shade Analysis and a Vail Plaza
Hotel Parking Analysis (revised 2/28/00). The purpose of these documents is to provide a comparison of
existing conditions relative to proposed conditions should the hotel be constructed. Accompanying this
information is a/so a revised Vail Plaza Hotel Traffic The original report had been
prepared for the 1998 proposa/. Since its original formulation, the repoft has been revised and
supplemented in response to changing conditions and requests of staff and others. The basic findings of
the report conclude that while the redeveloped hotel will have impacts of cunent traffic pdterns, the
projecled impacts can be successfu//y mitigated. Complete copies of these sri reporfs and other relevant
information have been provided as exhibits and are found in the back of this memorandum.
Lastly, a brief overuiew of the development history of the Vail Viilage lnn Special Development District
has been prepared. This overview is intended to provide a basic understanding of the proposed changes
that have occuned within the Distict since its original adoption in 1976. The development history of the
Vail Village lnn is outlined in Section lV of this memorandum.

February 28,2000
A requesi for a final review and recommendation of a major amendment, to allow
for the proposed redevelopment of the Vail Village Inn, Phase lV, within Special
Developmenl District No. 6, and a conditional use permit, to allow for the
operation of a fractional fee club in the Public Accommodation Zone District,
locaied at 100 East Meadow Drive/Lots M, N, & O, Block 5-D, Vail Village First
Filing.
Applicant:
Planner:
Waldir Prado, Daymer Corporation
George Ruther
I. INTRODUGTION
The applicant, Waldir Prado, d.b.a. Daymer Corporation, represented by Jay Peterson, is
proposing to redevelop the Vail Village lnn, located at 100 East Meadow Drive. The applicant
has submitted two applications to the Town of Vail Community Development Department for
review and consideration:
Maj o r Amen d m ent Req u est
1) A request for a major amendment to Special Development District #6, Vail Village Inn.
The major amendment application proposes changes to the existing approved
development plan and is intended to facilitate the redevelopment of the existing Vail
Village Inn, Phase lV Condominiums and allow for lhe construction of the Vail Plaza
Hotel. The cunent proposal amends Phase lV of the Vail Village lnn Plaza only. No
amendments are proposed to Phases l-lll or V of the Vail Village Inn.
Conditional Use Permit Reguest
2) A request for a conditional use permit, pursuant to Chapter 16 of the Town of Vail Zoning
Regulations, to allow for lhe operation of a fractional fee club within the proposed Vail
Plaza Hotel. The fraclional fee club will be comprised of 50 fractional fee club units
operated and managed by the owner of lhe Vail Plaza Hotel.
The applicant has identified what he believes to be public benefits which will be realized by the
Town as a result of the Vail Plaza Hotel redevelopment. The public benefits associated with the
hotel proposal are:
. An increase in the annual occupancy rate through the redevelopment of an older, existing
hotel.o The creation of approximately 10,500 square feet of new conference and meeting room
facilities.r The implementation of the recommended Town of Vail Streetscape Master Plan
improvemenls along Vail Road, the South Frontage Road and a portion of East Meadow
Drive.. The re-investment and redevelopment of resort property in the Town of Vail.r The implementation of the development goals, objectives and policies adopted by the Town
for the Vail Village Inn property.
r A significant increase in the Town's supply of short-term, overnight accommodation to serve
our guests and visitors.e The conslruction of a world-class "anchoF hotel providing a high-level of guest services and
amenities.r A potentially sizeable annual contribution to the Town's declining sales tax revenue.
II. DESGRIPTION OF THE REQUESTS
M aj o r Am e nd menf Reguest
The applicant, Daymer Corporation, represented by Jay Peterson, has submitted two
development review applications to the Town of Vail Community Development. The first
application is a request for a final review and recommendation of a proposed a major
amendment, pursuant to Chapter 9 of ihe Town of Vail Zoning Regulation, to Special
Development District No. 6, Vail Village Inn. The second request is for a conditional use permit
to allow for the operation of a fraciional fee club. The purpose of the major amendment is to
amend the approved developmenl plan to allow for the construction of the Vail Plaza Hotel in
Phase lV of the District.
The applicant is proposing significant improvements to Phase lV of the Vail Village Inn Special
Development District. The existing hotel and restaurant are proposed to be demolished to allow
for the new construction of the Vail Plaza Hotel. The hotel is intended to be a mixed-use
development including residential, commercial and recreational uses. The applicant is proposing
to construcl 99 new accommodation unils (hotel rooms) ranging in size from approximalely 350
sq. ft. to 370 sq. ft. per unit, 50 part-time fractional fee club units, 18 employee housing units (38
beds) and 1 free-market condominium. The fractional fee club units are considered part-time,
since during the summer months the hotel will retain ownership of the units to rent as short-term
accommodation units, and then during the winter months (approximately 24 weeks) the units will
be sold as fraclional fee club units. The Vail Plaza Hotel also includes two restaurants, 4,047
square feet of accessory retail located within the hotel and along the plaza, a 15,338 square foot
conference facility, a 24,799 square foot full-service spa and health club facility and
approximately 249 new underground parking spaces.
The approximale total gross square footage of the new hotel is 379,857 square feet. The
following is an approximate square footage breakdown of the various uses within the hotel:
* 62,816 sq. ft. - fractional fee club units+ 5,499 sq. ft. - condominium .

35,818 sq. fl. - accommodalion units

24,817 sq. ft. - spa/health club
221,O7O sq. ft. - common area (mechanical, maid closets, stairs/hallways, parking, office,
lobby, etc.)
379,857 sq. ft. gross building square footage
Conditional Use Permit ReguEsf
The second application submitted for review is for a conditional use permit to allow for the
operation of a fractional fee club in the Public Accommodation zone district. The granting of a
conditional use permit by the Town of Vail would allow the applicant io operate 50 fractional fee
club units within the Vail Plaza Hotel. The applicant is proposing that the club units be sold on
an interval basis. The club units would be sold for 24 weeks during the winter months with the
remaining 28 weeks owned by the hotel for use as short{erm accommodations units. lt is
believed by the applicant that this sales structure will maximize the occupancy of the units and
optimize the availability of the units for marketing the conference facility of the hotel during the
summer months and shoulder seasons. To further improve occupancy potential of the fractional
fee club, the 50 club units have been designed to include up to two "lock-off'spaces per unit.
This design creates a total of 108 "keys" and 216 "pillows" for the fractional fee club component
of the hotel (1 key = 1 room).
A complete set of reduced plans has been attached for reference (Exhibit AA).
III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department is recommending approval of the applicant's request
for a major amendment to Special Development District #6 and a conditional use permit, to allow
for redevelopmenl of Phase lV of the Vail Village Inn. Staff's recommendation for approval is
based upon the review of the criteria outlined in Sections V & Vl of ihis memorandum. The staff
believes that the proposal is in general compliance with the nine design criteria and the criteria
for a conditional use permit, as identified in this memorandum.
In reviewing the proposal, staff identified a number of pros and cons that we believe are
associated with the hotel proposal. The list includes, but is not limited to, the following:
PROS
a
O
o
a
The presence of economic redevelopment in Vail.
An increase to the Town's supply of hotel beds and an increased level of quality.
The implementation of the Town's development goals, objectives, and policies.
The creation of new, deed restricted employee housing to offset the housing impacts
associated with the hotel.
The elimination of an unsightly surface parking lot.
The completion of the final phase of the Vail Village Inn Special Development District.
The construction of new conference and meeting room facilities within the Town.
a
I
a
. The construction of public improvements funded with private dollars.o The potential increases in sales tax revenue.o An increased amount of public open space.r An improved and updated loading/delivery facility which is relocated from Vail Road.. The provision of 18 on-site employee housing units.
CONS
. lncreased vehicular traffic on Vail Road.r Deviations from the underlying zoning development standards are required.o The bulk and mass of lhe new hotel is significantly greater than the sizes of buildings
presently on the development site.. There are increased impacts of shading on public areas.o The conference and meeting room facilities are potentially under-sized.. Additional views of Vail Mountain from public areas will be negatively impacted.. Only a portion of the dilapidated plaza paver surface is being replaced and improved.. Increased loading/delivery truck traffic on Town streets.r There is only a marginal net increase of true accommodation units over what exisis today.o An eighteen to twenty-four month construction process (noise, construction traffic, etc).
Should the Planning & Environmental Commission choose to recommend approval of the
requested major amendment to the Vail Town Council, staff would recommend that the
Commission make the following finding:
"That the proposed major amendment to Special Development Distict #6, Vail Village
lnn, complies with the nine design citeia outlined in Section 12-94-8 of the Town of Vail
Municipal Code. The applicant, as required, has demonstrcted to the satisfaction of the
Commission that any adverce effects of the requested deviations from the development
standads of the underlying zoning arc outweighed by the public benefits provided or has
demonstnted that one or morc of the development standatds is not applicable, or that a
prcctical solution consistent with the public intercst has been achieved. Fufther, the
Commission finds that the requested conditional use permit to allow for the opention of a
tuactional fee club complies with the applicable criteria and is consr.sfent with the
development goals and objectives of the Town. Lastly, public notice of this public hearing
has been sent to adjacent property ownerc and published in a local newspaper of rccord
in accordance with Section 12-3-OC of the Town Code."

IV. BACKGROUND
The development review process for the Vail Plaza Hotel has been a lengthy, labor intensive
process that has included numerous meetings with the various Town boards, Town staff, and
interested members of lhe community. The review process began over two years ago when the
applicant submitted ihe original redevelopment proposal application to the Community
Development. Following a nine month review process including a final review and
recommendation of approval from the Planning & Environmental Commission and the Design
Review Board, the Vail Town Council informed the applicant that a favorable vote could not be
made on the application and directed the applicant to revise the proposal. The primary concems
of the Council were building height, compliance with the Town's planning documents, off-site
traffic impacts, loading and delivery capabilities and vehicular sile access. In response to the
Council's concems the proposal has been revised and resubmitted to the Community
Development Department.
The revised proposal has been reviewed and evaluated by the Planning & Environmental
Commission, the Design Review Board and the Town staff. The Commission has held five
meetings while the Board has held five conceptual reviews of the revised plans. Additionally, the
applicant held an open house lo present the plans to interested members of the community. All
the submitted plans, models and related materials have been available for review at the Office of
Community Development and on various web sites.
The following is a summary of the existing phases and development with the Vail Village Inn
Special Developmenl District:
Phase | - This phase consists of the buildings located at the southeast comer of the
District. Phase I includes one residential dwelling unit approximately 3,927 square feet in
size and nine commercial/retail spaces.
Phase ll - This phase consists of three resideniial dwelling units totaling approximately
3,492 square feet in size and three commercial/retail spaces. Phase ll is generally
located in the center of the District.
Phase lll - This Phase consists of twenty-nine residential dwelling units totaling
approximately 44,830 square feet in size and six commercial/retail spaces. Phase lll is
localed at the northeast comer of the District.
Phase lV - This is the original and oldest Phase in the District. This Phase consists of
one residential dwelling unit approximately 5,000 square feet in size and seventy-two
accommodation units comprising approximately 16,585 square feet of floor area. Phase
lV is generally located in the northwest comer of the District.
Phase V - This Phase consists of eleven residential dwelling units and three
accommodation units totaling approximately 9,972 square feet of floor area and four
commercial/retail spaces. Phase V is located in the southwest comer of the District at
the intersection of Vail Road and East Meadow Drive.
A map illustrating the location of the various Phases has been attached for reference (Exhibit A).
The following is a brief summary of the amendments to Special Development District No. 6 since
the original adoption:
o In 1976, the Vail Town Council passed Ordinance No. 7, Series 1976, establishing Special
Development Districts No. 6, Vail Village Inn, to ensure the unified and coordinated
development of a critical site to the Town of Vail, as a whole, and in a manner suitable for the
area in which it is situated.
o In 1985, the Vail Town Council passed Ordinance No. 1, Series 1985, providing certain
amendments to the approved development plan for Special Development District No. 6. The
amendments included a requirement for a minimum of 175 accommodation unils and 72,4OO
square feet of GRFA devoted entirely to accommodation units in Phase lV.
o In 1987, the Vail Town Council passed Ordinance No.14, Series 1987, which amended and
modified Section I relating to the allowed density of the development plan for Special
Development District No. 6. This amendment broke Phase lV into two distinct phases; Phase
lV and Phase V. This amendment established the maximum allowable GRFA for the eniire
Districi at approximately 120,000 square feet. Further, the amendment reduced the minimum
accommodation unit requirement to 148 units and 67,367 square feet of GRFA.
o In 1989, the Vail Town Council passed Ordinance No. 24, Series of 1989, amending the
density controls of the District. This amendment increased the allowable GRFA to 124,527
square feet and allowed Unit #30 to be created in a commercial space. The amendment
maintained the previous approval requiring a minimum 148 accommodation units and 67,367
square feet of GRFA devoted to units in Phases lV and V.
o In 1991 , the Vail Town Council passed Ordinance No. 9, Series 1991 , providing for certain
amendments to the approved development plan for Special Development District No. 6,
which relates specifically to Phase lV.
o In 1992, the Vail Town Council passed Ordinance No. 2, Series 1992, allowing for
modifications and amendments to various sections of Special Development District No. 6
which related directly to Phase lV, and which made certain changes to the approved
development plan for Special Development District No. 6 as they relate to Phase lV.
When originally considering deviations from the underlying zoning in 1976, the Town Council
found that such deviations were acceptable, as the community was lo realize a substantial
increase in the hotel bed base. An increase in short-term accommodations has been a long-
standing objective of our resort community.
V. "PUBLIC ACCOMMODATION ZONE DISTRIGT"
According to the Official Town of Vail Zoning Map, the applicant's property is zoned Public
Accommodation. Pursuant to the Town of Vail Municipal Code, the Public Accommodation Zone
district is intended,
" to provide sites for lodges and residential accommodations for visitors, together
with such public and semi-public facilities and limited professional offices, medical
facilities, private recreation, and related visitor oriented uses as may appropriately
be located in the same district. The Public Accommodation District is intended to
ensure adequate light, air, open space, and other amenities commensurate with
lodge uses, and to maintain the desirable resort qualities of the District by
establishing appropriate site development standards. Additional nonresidential uses
are permitted as conditional uses which enhance the nature of Vail as a winter and
summer recreation and vacation community, and where permitted are intended to
function compatibly with the high density lodging character of the District."
The Public Accommodation Zone District is intended to provide sites for lodging units with
densities not to exceed 25 dwelling units per acre. The Public Accommodation Zone District,
prior to January 21, 1997, did not permit interval ownership. On January 21, 1997, the Town
Council adopted regulations allowing interval ownership subject to the issuance of a conditional
use permit. Previously, interval ownership was only allowed as a conditional use in the High
Density Multi-family Zone District.
On October 5, 1999, the Vail Town Council approved Ordinance No. 23, Series of 1999,
amending the development standards prescribed in the Public Accommodation Zone District.
The amendments included an increase in allowable GRFA up to 150%, an increase in site
coverage, the elimination of AU's and FFU's in the calculation of density, revised setback
requirements, and other various aspects in the development of properties zoned Public
Accommodation. The allowable building height, landscape area and limitation on commercial
square footage remained unchanged.
VI. ZONING ANALYSIS
The development standards for a Special Development District shall be proposed by the
applicant. Development standards including lot area, site dimensions, setbacks, height, density
control, site coverage, landscaping and parking and loading shall be determined by the Town
Council as part of the approved development plan, with consideration of the recommendations of
the Planning and Environmental Commission. Before the Town Council approves development
standards that deviate from the underlying zone district, it shall be determined that such
deviations provide benefits to the Town that outweigh the effects of such deviations. This
determination is to be made based upon the evaluation of the proposed Special Development
District's compliance with the Review Criteria outlined in the following section of this
memorandum.
The Community Development Department staff has prepared a zoning analysis for the proposed
Vail Plaza Hotel. The Vail Plaza Hotel Zoning Analysis compares the development standards
outlined by the underlying zoning of Public Accommodation (revised 10/99), to the existing
development, the applicant's proposed 1998 major amendmenl (which was not approved), the
approved 1999 major amendment and the 2000 revised proposal. lt is important to note that the
comparison is based on the entire area of the Special Development District.
A copy of the Vail Plaza Hotel Zoninq Analvsis has been attached for reference (Exhibit B).
For comparative purposes, the Community Development Department has also compleied an
analysis comparing the 1998 proposal and the 1999 approval to the 2000 proposal. The purpose
of the analysis is to provide a direct comparison of the 1998 proposal and the 1999 approval to
the applicant's revised 2000 proposal.
A copy of the Vail Plaza Hotel Proposal Comparison has been attached for reference (Exhibit C).
VII. THE SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT MAJOR AMENDMENT PROCESS
Chapter 12-9 of the Town Code provides for the amendment of existing Special Developmenl
Districts in the Town of Vail. According to Section 12-9A-1, the purpose of a Special
Development District is,
"To encourage flexibility and creativity in the development of land, in order
to promote its most appropriate use; to improve the design character and
quality of the new development within the Town; to facilitate the adequate
and economical provision of streets and utilities; to pr€serve the natural and
scenic features of open space areas; and to fufther the overall goals of the
community as stated in the Vail Comprehensive Plan. An approved
development plan for a Special Development Distric't, in conjunction with the
properties underlying zone district, shall establish the requirements for
guiding development and uses of property included in the Special
Development District.'
According to Section 12-94-2, a major amendment to a Special Development District is defined
as,
"Any proposal to change uses; increase gross residential floor area; change the
number of dwelling or accommodation units; modify, enlarge or expand any
approved special development district (other than "minor amendments" as defined
in this Section), except as provided under Sections 12-154, "lnterior Convelsions",
or 12-15$, "Gross Residential Floor Area (250 Ordinance)" of this Title."
The Town Code provides a framework for the amendment of a Special Development District.
According to the Town Code, prior to site preparation, building construction, or other
improvemenls to land within a Special Developmenl District, there shall be an approved
development plan for the Special Development District. The approved development plan
establishes requirements regulating development, uses and activity within the Special
Development District.
Upon final review of a proposed major amendment of an existing Special Development Distrist, a
report from the Planning and Environmental Commission stating its findings and
recommendations and a staff report shall be forwarded to the Town Council, in accordance with
the provisions listed in Seclion 12-16-6 of the Town Code. The Town Council's consideration of
the Special Development District shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Town Code
and approved by two readings of an ordinance.
An approved development plan is the principal document in guiding the development, uses, and
activities of the Special Development District. The development plan shall contain all relevant
10
material and information necessary to establish the parameters with which the Special
Development District shall adhere. The development plan may consist of, but not be limited to:
the approved site plan; floor plans, building sections, and elevations: vicinity plan; parking plan;
preliminary open space/landscape plan; densities; and permitted, conditional, and accessory
uses.
The determination of permitted, condilional and accessory uses shall be made by the Planning
and Environmental Commission and Town Council as part of the formal review of the proposed
development plan. Unless further restricted through the review of the proposed Special
Development District, permitted, conditional and accessory uses shall be limited to those
permitted, conditional and accessory uses in the property's underlying zone district.
The Town Code provides nine design criteria, which shall be used as the principal criteria in
evaluating the merits of the proposed major amendment lo a Special Development District. lt
shall be the burden of the applicant to demonstrate that submittal material and the proposed
development plan comply with each of the following standards, or demonstrate that one or more
of them is not applicable, or that a practical solution consistent with the public interest has been
achieved. The applicant has submitted a report outlining a review of the criteria (Exhibit D). The
nine SDD review criteria are listed below:
NOTE: Staffs analysis is based in part on an analysis by Jeff Winston, an independent design
consultant.
A. Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment, neighborhood
and adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building height,
buffer zones, identity, character, visual integrity and orientation.
Staff believes the applicant has designed a structure which relates well to the site and the
surrounding neighborhood. The mass of the Vail Plaza Hotel is significantly greater than
that of the existing buildings on the site. However, staff believes the increased mass is
appropriate for the site and takes into consideration the massing of the buildings on the
adjoining properties and in the immediate vicinity. The applicant has modified the
building mass by redesigning various roof elements, articulating the building fagade along
the South Frontage Road, reconfiguring the tower elements and by lowering the roof eave
lines. The lowered roof eave lines match more closely to lhe eave lines of the adjoining
buildings to the east, west and south, thus insuring a smooth transition of building mass
between properties. To further address building mass the tallest portions of the building
have been located near the center of the development site. This design reconfiguration
reduces the perceived height of the hotel in the immediate area.
The applicant has revised the building footprint in response to the Town Council's request
to maintain the twenty-foot setback along Vail Road. The revised footprint does not
maintain the full twenty-foot setback as requesied. The proposed plan shows that the
building encroaches a maximum of four feet into the Vail Road setback. The
encroachment is on the southwest comer of the building. The total square footage of
building area in the setback is approximately 56 square while the total amount of GRFA in
the setback is roughly 36 square feet. Staff believes that the intent of the Town Council's
direction has been met since there is now adequate space for the required landscape
and sidewalk improvements.
The Vail Plaza Hotel exterior building materials are a mixture of stone, stucco and wood.
The roof material is proposed to be a terra cotta colored concrete tile with copper
flashing. The applicant has proposed to incorporate inigated flower boxes and copper
chimney caps into the design of the hotel to serve as attractive accent elements. A
grayish-brown granite stone will be used around the base of the building. The use of non-
11
reflective glazed windows all around the building reduces the potential of unwanted glare.
The applicant has proposed that the exterior stucco color be an off-white or cream color
to blend in with the exteriors of the buildings on the adjoining properties. Staff believes
that the combination of building materials proposed has been well incorporated into the
design of the Vail Plaza Hotel. The Town of Vail Design Review Board will have the
opportunity to review the building exterior prior to final approval of the hotel.
The height of the Vail Plaza Hotel exceeds the allowable building height of the Public
Accommodation zone district by approximately 29 feet. The building height standards of
the underlying zone district indicate that the maximum height for buildings with sloping
roofs shall be 48 feet. The applicant is requesting that the maximum building height for
the Vail Plaza Hotel be approximately 77 feet. This figure does not include the proposed
architectural feature or landmark element atop the elevator tower. The height of the
elevator tower is approximately 99 feet. The building height is based on an interpolated
topography of the Vail Village Inn property, and not the original topography of the site
(pre-development). Original topography of the site is not available, as the site was
originally developed prior to zoning (and before the requirement that a topographic survey
be submitted prior to development). Slaff believes, based upon the topography in the
vicinity of the development site, that the interpolated topography is a reasonable and
appropriate method to determine building height.
According to the Vail Village Master Plan Conceptual Building Height Plan and the
Building Height Profile Plan (Exhibit E), the development site of Phase lV of the Vail
Village Inn is in an area with conceptual building heights of 3-4 stories, with a building
story being approximately nine feet, excluding the roof. The applicant is proposing to
construct a five-story hotel, excluding roof. The Building Height Plan element of the Vail
Village Master Plan, stales in part,
"Generally speaking, it is the goal of this plan to maintain the concentration
of low-scale buildings in the core area while positioning larger buildings
along the northern periphery (along the Frontage Road), as depicted in the
Building Height Profile Plan. The Building Height Plan also strives, in some
areas, to preserve major views from public rights-of-way.
The building heights expressed on the lllustrative Plan are intended to
provide general guidelines. Additional study should be made during specific
review processes relative to a building's height impact on the streetscape
and the relationship to surrounding structures."
In response to the general guidelines provided in the Vail Village Master Plan relative to
building height, staff has requested that the applicant prepare a view analysis from eight
different locations from the public rights-of-way. This Vail Plaza Hotel View Analvsis
provides a "before & afte/' depiction of the proposed building (Exhibit F). The view
analysis and on-site inspections have indicated that the view from public rights-of-way will
not be negatively impacted. In addition, a Vail Plaza Hotel Sun/Shade Analvsis was
prepared to illustrate the building's height impact on the surrounding streetscape (Exhibit
G). The sun/shade analysis compares the height impact of the existing structures to the
height impact of the proposed structures. The result of the comparison shows that
substantially more of the streetscape along the South Frontage Road east of the
roundabout will be shaded. The increase in shading results from the increase in building
height, the increased encroachment into the front setback and the additional building
mass proposed. To offset the impacts of the increase in shading during the winter
months, the applicant has proposed to improve the pedestrian streetscape along the
South Frontage Road by installing heated sidewalks and drive aisles and has redesigned
I2
B.
the roof form of the hotel to minimize the shading impact on adjacent properties. To help
mitigate the building's mass, the applicant has proposed to construct exterior decks and
balconies, along with providing horizontal stepping of the building, along the South
Frontage Road.
To respect the relationship of the hotel to sunounding structures on adjoining properties,
and at the request of the Planning & Environmental Commission, the applicant has
removed 2to2% stories from the original proposed (1998) building, increased the
vertical stepping of the building and increased the width of the Vail Road setback.
Because of the increased vertical stepping of the building and the minimum twenty-foot
setback above grade, staff believes that the proposed hotel is respectful of existing
development and uses on adjacent properties. The net effect of these changes results in
the maximum height of the building being located in the center portions of the site away
from the adjoining property lines and slructures.
Staff believes that the applicant has designed a building which relates well to the site and
the surrounding neighborhood. Further, staff believes that the proposed building
complies with the general guidelines and basic intent of the Conceptual Building Height
Plan and the Building Height Profile contained in the Vail Village Master Plan.
Much has been said regarding the potential "loss" of the "established view conidoi'from
the intersection of the South Frontage Road and Vail Road, as a result of lhe construction
of the Vail Plaza Hotel. No adopted view conidor exists in this area. Staff and the
Town's Urban Design Consultant believe that the true loss of the view and the real
negative impacts occurred when the Vail Gateway Plaza was constructed. Through the
construction of the five-story tall Vail Gateway Plaza, the view from the intersection was
substantially lost. While the existence of the view conidor was recognized during the
development review process of the Gateway Plaza Building and attempts were made to
respect the view, the efforts fell short of protecting the view. This, coupled with the fact
that the intersection configuration and traffic flow pattems of the South Frontage Road
have changed since the original adoption of the master plan, is justification for additional
encroachments upon the view. Furthermore, staff and Jeff Winston believe additional
development and building height behind the Vail Gateway Plaza will have minimal
impacts on the remaining view. While the Vail Village Master Plan discusses the
importance of maintaining views from public rights-of-way, it did not establish a view
corridor in the vicinity of the proposed development site, nor did intend to protect views
from private property. The Town of Vail has five established view conidors and is
proposing five additional view corridors in Lionshead, to be protected by ordinance.
These protected view corridors are generally located in Vail Village and Lionshead.
Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and workable
relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
The Vail Plaza Hotel is located within the mixed-use development area of the Vail Village
Inn Special Development District. The uses, activities and densities for the Vail Plaza
Hotel development site are prescribed by the underlying zoning for Special Development
District No. 6. According to the Official Town of Vail Zoning Map, the underlying zoning
for Special Development District No. 6 is Public Accommodation. The Public
Accommodation Zone District encourages the development of lodges (accommodation
units) and accessory eating and drinking establishments at a density of twenty-five
dwelling units per acre. The sunounding uses and zoning designation include Public
Accommodation to the south and west (Sonnenalp Holiday Haus & Chateau at Vail),
Commercial Service Center to the east (Crossroads) and Commercial Core I/SDD #21
(Gateway) to the north. The same development standards that apply to the Vail Plaza
13
Hotel development site apply to the Sonnenalp, Holiday Haus and Chateau at Vail
properties. The Commercial Service Center zoning applicable to the Crossroads property
is intended primarily for commercial development togeiher with a limited amount of
multiple-fami[ and lodging types of residential use. The Commercial Core I underlying
zoning of the Gateway Special Development District is intended to provide sites for a
mixture of commercial and residential development.
The Vail Plaza Hotel is proposed to be a mixed-use type of development. The mixture of
uses includes commercial, lodging, recreational and residential. Staff believes the
proposed mixture of uses and its proximity to both Vail Village and Lionshead is
consistent with the intended purpose of the underlying zoning of Public Accommodation
and in keeping with the intent of Vail Land Use Plan. Further, staff believes that the
proposed uses within the Vail Plaza Hotel will compliment those existing uses and
activities on surrounding and adjacent properties. The proposed density of the hotel and
the presence of the conference facilities will improve and enhance the viability and
success of the existing restaurant and retail businesses in the immediate area.
Additionally, through the redesign of the redevelopment proposal, staff believes that the
applicant has improved the integration of the hotel with the adjacent properties.
Examples of improved integration include a pedestrian connection and sidewalk adjacent
to the Gateway Building, an intemal service conidor providing loading/delivery access
from the centralized loading and delivery facility to the entire District, lowering of roof
eaves lo relate to the existing conditions of the neighboring properties, and more
appropriately sized pedestrian walkways lhroughout the plaza areas to ensure congestion
free flow.
Emplovee Housino Requirements
As indicated in a number of the goals and objectives of the Town's Master Plans,
providing affordable housing for employees is a critical issue which should be addressed
through the planning process for Special Development District proposals. In reviewing
the proposal for employee housing needs, staff relied on the Town of Vail Employee
Housing Report. This report has been used by the staff in the past to evaluate employee
housing needs. The guidelines conlained within the report were used most recently in
the review of lhe Austria Haus and Maniott development proposals.
The Employee Housing Report was prepared for the Town by the consulting firm Rosall,
Remmen and Cares. The report provides the recommended ranges of employee housing
units needed based on the type of use and the amount of floor area dedicated to each
use. Utilizing the guidelines prescribed in the Employee Housing Report, the staff
analyzed the incremental increase of employees (square footage per use), that results
from the redevelopment. A copy of the Suqqested Emplovment Cateqories and Ranses
for Vail Expressed as Emplovees per 1000 Square Feet has been attached for reference.
The figures identified in the Housing Report are based on surveys of commercial-use
employment needs of the Town of Vail and other mountain resort communities. For
comparison purposes, Telluride, Aspen and Whistler B.C. all have "employment
generation" ordinances requiring developers to provide affordable housing for a
percentage of the "neuy'' employees resulting from commercial development. "NeW'
employees are defined as the incremental increase in employment needs resulting from
commercial redevelopment. Each of the communities assesses a different percentage of
affordable housing a developer must provide for the "neu/'employees. For example,
Telfuride requires developers to provide housing lor 40o/o (0.40) of the "neW' employees,
Aspen requires that 6O% (0.60) of the "nev/' employees are provided housing and
Whistler requires that 100% (1.00) of the "neu/' employees be provided housing by the
14
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
developer. In comparison, Vail has conservatively determined that developers shall
provide housing tor 15% (0.15) or 30% (0.30) of the "nev/' employees resulting from
commercial development. When a project is proposed to exseed the density allowed by
the underlying zone district, the 3070 (0.30) figure is used in the calculation. lf a project is
proposed at, or below, the density allowed by the underlying zone district, the 15% (0.15)
figure is used. The Vail Plaza Hotel special development district major amendment
proposal does not exceed the density permitted by the underlying zone district. However,
the 30% figure was used.
The applicant is proposing to provide employee housing for a percentage of the "neu/'
employees resulting from the hotel construction. Based upon an analysis completed by
the applicant and provided to the Community Development Department, the new hotel is
expected to generate 125 "neu/'employees. The "neu/'employees are in addition to the
74 employees already working full-time or part-time at the Vail Village lnn. The applicant
is proposing to provide deed-restricted employee housing for 307o (32) of the "neu/'
employees. Due to the unavailability of privale vacrnt land resources within the Town
limits, the applicant anticipates lhat all or a portion of the deed-restricted housing will be
provided in an out-of-town or down-valley location. In order to maximize the benefit of the
housing to the Town of Vail, the applicant has suggested that the housing will be
available only to Vail Plaza Hotel employees. lt is further anticipated that some form of
transportation will be provided to the employees from lhe out-of-town or down-valley
location to the hotel. The Planning & Environmental Commission has briefly discussed
the employee housing alternatives with the applicant and expressed thal, based upon the
information provided to date, the proposal seems reasonable and appropriate. A copy of
the "Vail Villaqe Inn Staffinq Roste/' has been attached for reference (Exhibit H).

Staff Recommended Ranqe Calculations:
The staff believes that the Vail Plaza redevelopment will create a need for 125 additional
employees. Of the 125 additional employees, at least 38 employees (30%) will need to be
provided deed-restricted housing by the developers of the Vail Plaza Holel. The staff
recommended range is based on:
1. the type of retail and commercial use proposed in the commercial space
within the Vail Plaza Hotel:

the level of services and amenities proposed by the developers for the guests of
the Vail Plaza Hotel; and

Depending upon the size of the employee housing unit provided, it is possible to
have up to two employees per bedroom. For example, a two-bedroom unit in the
size range of 450 - 900 square feet, is possible of accommodating three to four
employees. These figures are consistent with the requirements for the Type lll
employee housing units outlined in the Municipal Code.
Overall, staff believes that the density and uses proposed by the applicant for the Vail
Plaza Hotel do not conflict with the compatibility, efficiency or workability of the
surrounding uses and activities on adjacent properties. In fact, staff feels that the
proposed Vail Plaza Hotel redevelopment will substantially enhance the existing uses
and activities in the community.
C. Compliance with parking and loading rcquirements as outlined in Chapter 12-10 ol
the Vail Town Code.
The Vail Plaza Hotel proposal has been reviewed for compliance with the parking and
foading requirements prescribed in Chapter 12-10 of the Vail Town Code. Pursuant to
the prescribed regulations, 378 parking spaces are required for all of Special
Development District No. 6. The applicant is proposing to provide a total of 368 parking
spaces. The difference between what is required by Code and what the applicant is
proposing is 10 parking spaces. To account forthe difference, the applicant is requesting
a deviation from the prescribed parking requirement pursuant io the provisions of Chapter
12-9.
A copy of the Vail Plaza Hotel Parkino Analvsis prepared by staff and the applicant has
been attached for reference (Exhibit l).
The Vail Plaza Hotel has proposed a centralized loading facility for the hotel and
sunounding uses within the special development district. Pursuant to the prescribed
loading regulations, five loading berths are required to be provided. To insure compliance
L'7
D.
with the applicable regulation the applicant is proposing to provide five loading berths
within an enclosed facility. Vehicular access to the facility is taken from the South
Frontage Road. The design ofthe access creates fonryard-in and fonryard-out traffic flow
and provides adequate maneuvering and turning space within the lot lines of the
development site. The flow of traffic on the South Frontage Road will not be impeded by
the maneuvering of delivery vehicles. Furthermore, pursuant to the prescribed
regulations, the loading facility will not be located in the required setback, nor will it block
access to the parking spaces within the Phase lll Condominium Building. Lastly, the five
loading berths more than adequately meet the size requirements (12' x24'x 14') outlined
in the regulations.
Upon review of the proposed parking and loading/delivery plan for the Vail Plaza Hotel,
the staff finds that the proposal meets the intent of the Town's parking requirements and
exceeds the loading and delivery requirements. Staff recognizes this as a benefit. We
believe that given the proposed and existing uses within the district, the proximity of the
developmenl site to the Vail Transportation Cenler, the immediate availability of public
lransportation and recent trends in destination resort travel, the 368 proposed parking
spaces will adequately provide for the needs of District. Additionally, in a recent parking
study undertaken by the Town of Vail, the consultant working with the Town
recommended a significant reduction in the required number of parking spaces for
fractional fee club units. The reduction has been recommended as the use of the club
unit is more similar to the use of an accommodation unit. The maximum parking space
requirement for an accommodation units is one space, regardless of size.
Staff has been informed of a potential parking space violation within the District. The
apparent violation stems from a real estate transaction that transfened a Phase V
condominium unit separate from the required parking spaces, thus creating a situation
where a residential property does not have the required number of parking spaces. Staff
believes this issue could be addressed and resolved if an appropriate number of parking
spaces were provided in the newly created parking structure.
Conformity with the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan, Town
policies and Urban Design Plan.
Vail Land Use Plan
The Vail Land Use Plan map and the goal statements are intended to serve as the
primary focus for the review of development proposals, along with Town ordinances and
regulations. Any project should be reviewed with the context of the intent of the overall
Plan Document. The Land Use Plan is intended to provide a general framework to guide
decision making but is not intended to be regulatory in nature.
The goals contained in the Vail Land Use Plan are to be used as the Town's policy
guidelines during the review process for a major amendment to an existing special
development districi. According to the Vail Land Use Plan, the proposed hotel
redevelopment site is located within the Vail Village Area.
According to the prescribed key goals of the Vail Land Use Plan for the Vail Village Area,
in part,
Commercial growth should be concentnted primaily in existing commercial aneas fo
accommodate both local and visitor needs. and
18
New hotels should continue to be located primarily in the Village and Uonshead areas,
and
lncreased density forcommercial, residential and lodging uses in the Corc arcas would
be acceptable so long as the existing chancter of each arca is being prcseved.
Staff has reviewed the Vail Land UsE Plan and believes the following policies are relevant
to the review of this proposal:
1. GeneralGrowth/Development
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment, mainlaining a
balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to serve
both the visitor and the permanent resident.
1.2 The quality of the environment including air, water, and other natural
resources should be protected as the Town grows.
1.3 The quality of development should be maintained and upgrade whenever
possible.
1.4 The original theme of the old Village Core should be canied into new
development in the Village Core through continued implementation of the
Urban Design Guide Plan.
1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (infill).
3. Commercial
3.1 The hotel bed base should be preserved and used more efficiently.
3.2 The Village and Lionshead are the best location for hotels to serve the
future needs of the destination skier.
3.3 Hotels are important to the continued success of the Town of Vail,
therefore conversion to condominiums should be discouraged.
3.4 Commercial growth should be concentrated in exisiing commercial areas
to accommodate both local and visitor needs.
4. Villaoe Gorc/Lionshead
4.1 Future commercial development should continue to occur primarily in
existing commercial areas. Future commercial development in the Core
areas needs to be carefully controlled to facilitate access and delivery.
4.2 Increased density in the Core areas is acceptable so long as the existing
character of each area is preserved through the implementation of the
Urban Design Guide Plan and the Vail Village Master Plan.
IJ
5.Residential
5.1 Quality timeshare units should be accommodated to help keep occupancy
rates up.
5.2 Affordable employee housing should be made available through private
efforts, assisted by limited incentives, provided by the Town of Vail, with
appropriate restrictions.
The Vail Land Use Plan projects a need for additional lodging units in the Town of Vail.
While the statistical information used to project need is most likely ouidated, staff
believes there continues to be a need for additional lodging units in the Town of Vail. The
Plan projected a need for a total of 395 additional lodging units by the year 2000. The
Staff believes the proposed major amendment of Special Development District No. 6
meets the intent, goals, and policies of the Vail Land Use Plan as outlined above.
Vail Villaqe Master Plan
According to the Vail Village Master Plan, the Plan is intended to serve as a guide to the
staff, review boards and the Town Council in analyzing future proposals for development
in Vail Village and in legislating effective ordinances to deal with the such development.
The most significant elements of the Master Plan are the goals, objectives, policies and
action steps. They are the working tools of the Master Plan. They establish the broad
framework and vision, but also layout the specific policies and action steps that will be
used to implement the Plan.
As noted on page 35 of the Master Plan,
"ft is important to note that the likelihood of project approval will be greatest for
those proposals that can fully comply wlth the Vail Village Mastar PIan."
Staff believes this statement re-emphasizes that the Master Plan is a general document
providing advisory guidelines to aid the Town in analyzing development proposals and
that 100% compliance is noi required in order for a project to be approved.
The staff has ideniified the following goals, objectives and policies as being relevant to
this proposal:

Vail Villaqe Master Plan Buildino Heioht Plan
Generally speaking, it is the goal of the Building Height Plan to mainlain the concentration
of low-scale buildings in the Core area, while positioning larger buildings along the
northem periphery. According to the Conceptual Building Height Plan contained within
the Vail Village Master Plan, the Vail Plaza Hotel is located within an area proposed to
have building heights with a maximum range of three to four stories. A building story is
defined as 9' of height, not including the roof. The applicant is proposing five stories,
excluding the roof, with a 10' 6" floor to floor height.
Vail Villaoe Master Plan Action Plan
The Action Plan graphically expresses a summary of possible development which would
be consistent with the elements of the Vail Village Master Plan. lt is not an all-inclusive
list, nor is it intended to restrict proposals that are not identified on the Action Plan. lt is
intended to provide suggestions and to act as a guide for implementing the Master Plan.
The Vail Plaza Hotel is located in sub-area #1 of the Action Plan. Sub-area #1 is the
mixed use activity center for Vail Village. lt is distinguished from the Mllage core by
the larger scale buildings. The arca is further distinguished by the mixture of
residential/lodging and commercial activity. According to the Plan, a significant
incrcase in the Village's overnight bed base will occur within the area.
According to the Action Plan, the Vail Plaza Hotel property is located within the mixed-use
sub-area concepi area#1-1. This concept area is:
an area intended for the completion of the final phase of the Vail Village Inn as
established by the development plan Special Development District #6.
Commercial development at ground level to frame the interior plaza with
greenspace. The mass of buildings shall "step-up" from the existing pedestrian
scale along East Meadow Drive to 4-5 stories along the South Frontage Road.
The design of the development must be sensitive to maintaining a view to Vail
Mountain from the 4-way stop (aka roundabout).
Vail Villaoe Desiqn Considerations
The Town of Vail adopted the Vail Village Design Considerations in 1980. The Design
Considerations were revised in 1993. The Design Considerations are considered an
23
integral part of the Vail Village Urban Design Plan. The Design Considerations are
intended lo:
guide growth and change in ways that will enhance and preserve the essential
qualities of the Village; and
serve as design guidelines instead of rigid rules of development; and
help influence the form and design of buildings.
The Vail Village Design Considerations are divided into two categories (urban design
considerations and architectural/landscape considerations):
1. URBAN DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
These considerations relate to general, large-scale land use planning issues, as well as form
considerations which affect more than one property or even whole areas. These considerations
are primarily the purview of the Planning and Environmental Commission.
A. PEDESTRIANIZATION
A major objective for Vail Village is to encourage pedestrian circulation through an
interconnected network of safe, pleasant pedestrian ways. Many of the improvements
recognized in the Urban Design Guide Plans, and accompanying Design Considerations,
are to reinforce and expand the quality of pedestrian walkways throughout the Village.
Since vehicular traffic cannot be removed from certain streets (bus roules, delivery
access), a totally car-free pedestrian system is not achievable ihroughout the entire
Village. Therefore, several levels of pedestrianization have been identified. The level of
pedestrianization most appropriate for the proposed Vail Plaza Hotel redevelopment is
separated use and joint vehicle/pedestrian use of the roadway.
. Sfarf Response.'
The applicant has met with the Town staff to discuss pedestian improvements. The staff
has concluded that the improvements recommended for the South Frontage Road, Vail
Road and East Meadow Dive in the 1991 Town of Vail Strcetscape Master Plan should
be implemented. This includes constructing a heated brick paver sidewalk with
landscape planters along Vail Road; a heated decontive paver sidewalk from the westem
prcperty line of Phase IV to the eastem property line of Phase lll with the rcmainder of
the sidewalk continuing to Village Center Road unheated; landscaping in the median and
along the South Frontage Road adjacent fo Phases lll & lV; a new sidewalk in the Town
ight-of-way at the nofthwest comer of the Gateway Building property; and strcetscape
improvements on public property along East Meadow Dive from the westem comer of
the Base Mountain Sports rctail space to the intercection of at Vail Road. The final
mateials used in the construction of the imprcvements shall be rcviewed and apprcved
by the Design Review Board.
B. VEHICLE PENETMTION
To minimize congestion to the extent possible, all non-resident traffic should be routed
along the Frontage Road to Vail Village/Lionshead Parking Structures.
24
In conjunction with pedestrianization objectives, major emphasis is focused upon
reducing auto penetration into the center of the Village. Vail Road and Vail Valley Drive
will continue to serve as major routes for service and resident access to the Village.
Road constrictions, traffic circles, signage, and other measures are indicated in the Guide
Plans to visually and physically discourage all but essential vehicle penetration upon the
Frontage Road. Altemative access points and private parking relocation, where feasible,
should be considered to further reduce traffic conflicts in the Village.
. SfaffResponse.'
The redevelopment of the Vail Plaza Hotel will increase vehicular tnffic in the Main Vail
Roundabout and on Vail Road. Accoding to the "Conclusion and Recommendations"
contained in the Traffic lmpact Analysis -Vail Plaza Hotel Redevelopment, preparcd by
Felsbery, Holt & Ullevig:
. The total prcjected fnps consrsf of subtracting the existing 1042 tips from the
proposed 3082 site genented trips.
. Two rcadway improvements will be necessary at the main access onto the
Frcntage Road. The first includes modification to the center median to
provide a stonge arca for vehicles tuming left out of the site. This will allow
for a two-step left tum with less delay. The second is an exclusive ight tum
lane into the site for eastbound tnffic. This exclusive right tum lane will
temove turning tnffic from the through tnffic lanes thercby imprcving safety
charccteistics.
c The roundabout will not be adversely affected by the proposed site tnffic.
The site traffic will consist of apprcximately one percent of the total tnffic in
the roundabout in the year 2015.
c The auxiliary lane east of the site for right tuming vehicles needs to be
extended wesf fo the second access. Ihr's lane will be used for delivery trucks
backing into the sife. Ihrs lane and the delivery driveway in which it will serue
should be designed to allow backing activity without impacting the eastbound
through tnffic. Physical sepantion should be considercd between the
through lane and the auxiliary lane where backing would be taking place.
A complete copy of the report has been aftached for rcference (Exhibit J).
Staff agrees with the traffic enginee/s assessment of the potential traffic impacts. There
will be an increase in traffic on Vail Road. There will not be an increase in traffic on the
pedestrian portion of East Meadow Drive. The applicant will be required to implement the
mitigation measures recommended by the Traffic Engineer should the major amendment
be approved. Slaff feels the applicant has addressed traffic issues to the extenl possible.
C. STREETSCAPE FMMEWORK
To improve the quality of the walking experience and give continuity to the pedestrian
ways, as a continuous system, two general types of improvements adjacent to the
walkways are considered:
25
Open space and landscaping, berms, grass, flowers and tree planting as a
soft, colorful framework linkage along pedestrian routes; and plazas and
park greenspaces as open nodes and focal points along those routes.
Infill commercial storefronts, expansion of existing buildings, or new infill
development to create new commercial activity generators to give
streetlife and visual interest, as attraclions at key locations along
pedestrian routes.
It is not intended to enclose all Village streets with buildings as in the core areas. Nor is it
desirable to leave pedestrian streets in the open in a somewhat undefined condition
evident in many other areas of Vail. Rather, it is desired to have a variety of open and
enclosed spaces, both built and landscaped, which create a strong framework for
pedestrian walks, as well as visual interest and activity.
r SfaffResponse:
The Vail Plaza Hotel redevelopment improves the streetscape frcmework through the
creation of the new hotel and the resulting enhanced visual interest along Vail Road.
Through the construction of both the intemal and extemal wall<ways, staff believes the
proposed rcdevelopment creates the citical commercial connection between Vail
Gateway Plaza and East Meadow Drive and provides new strcet life wherc very little
cunently exists.
D. STREET ENCLOSURE
While building facade heights should not be uniform from building to building, they should
provide a "comfortable" enclosure for the street.
Pedestrian streets are outdoor rooms, whose walls are formed by the buildings. The
shape and feel of these "rooms" are created by the variety of heights and massing (3-
dimensional variations), which give much of the visual interest and pedestrian scale
unigue to Vail. Very general rules about the perception of exterior spaces have been
developed by designers, based on the characteristics of human vision. They suggest
that:
"an external enclosure is most comfortable when its walls are approximately 1/2
as high as the width of the space enclosed; if the ratio falls to 1/4 or less, the
space seems unenclosed; and if the height is greater than the width it comes to
resemble a canyon".
In aciual application, facades are seldom uniform in height on both sides of the street, nor
is this desired. Thus, some latitude is appropriate in the application of this 1/2 to 1 ratio.
Using the average facade height on both sides will generally still be a guide to the
comfortableness of the enclosure being created.
In some instances, lhe "canyon" effect is acceptable and even desirable. For example,
as a short connecting linkage between larger spaces, to give variety to the walking
experience. For sun/shade reasons it is often advantageous to orient any longer
segments in a north/south direction. Long canyon streets in an easUwest direction should
generally be discouraged.
When exceptions to the general height criteria occur, special consideration should be
given to create a well-defined ground floor pedestrian emphasis to overcome the
1.
2.
26
"canyon" effect.
Canopies, awnings, arcades and building extensions can all create a pedestrian focus
and divert attention from the upper building heights and "canyon" effect.
. gfa,T8esp@
Vail Road and the sidewalks on either side, adjacent to the Vail Plaza Hotel, aveftrges
apprcximately 70 feet in width. The Vail Plaza Hotel (eaveline) along Vail Road is
approximately 44 feet in height. Given that the Nine Vail Road Condominiums are not
constructed panllel with Vail Road and the prcposed landscaping at the ground level of
the prcposed building, staff believes the Vail Plaza Hotel crcates a "comfortable"
enclosure of the street and does not crcate an undesinble "canyon" effect. However,
staff does believe therc is an oppoftunity to reduce the apparcnt height of the eaveline
along Vail Road. Staff would suggest that the applicant be requircd to continue to study
and then ptesent sevetal sfreefscape altematives for the strcetscape at the front
entrcnce of the hotel to the Design Review Board for review and ftnal apprcval. Special
aftention should be given to crcate a design that is not only functional and meets the
technical design requircments, but is a/so aesfhetically pleasing and attnctive in naturc.
E. STREET EDGE
Buildings in the Village core should form a strong but inegular edge to the street.
Unlike many American towns, lhere are no standard setback requirements for buildings in
Vail Village. Consistent with the desire for intimate pedestrian scale, placement of
portions of a building at or near the property line is allowed and encouraged to give strong
definition to the pedestrian streets.
This is not to imply continuous building frontage along the property line. A strong street
edge is importanl for continuity, but perfectly aligned facades over too long a distance
tend to be monotonous. With only a few exceptions in the Village, slightly irregular
facade lines, building jogs, and landscaped areas, give the life to the street and visual
interest for pedestrian travel.
Where buildings jog to create activity pockets, other elements can be used to conlinue
the street edge: low planter walls, tree planting, raised sidewalks, texture changes in
ground surface, arcades, raised decks.
Plazas, patios, and green areas are important focal points for gathering, resting, orienting
and should be distributed throughout the Village with due consideration to spacing, sun
access, opportunities for views and pedestrian activity.
. SfaffResponse.'
The Vail Plaza Hotelhas sfrcef frontage along Vail Road and the South Frontage Road.
The rcmainder of the building has building fronts intemal to the development. The edge
of the building has been designed at the street level to be varied and iregular through the
use of recessed enties, arched arcades and horizontaltuertical sfeps rn the building foot
pint. Staff believes that at the strcet level the design of the building conforms with the
intent of the street edge design considention.
F. BUILDING HEIGHT
2"7
Vail Village is perceived as a mix of two and three story facades, although lhere are also
four and five story buildings. The mix of building heights gives variety to the street, which
is desirable. The height criteria are intended to encourage height in massing variety and
to discourage uniform building heights along the street.
. Sfarf Resporse.'
As drscussed prcviously, the Vail Plaza Hotel exceeds fhe allowable building height
prescibed for the Public Accommodation Zone Distict. However, sfaff does not feel that
the proposed height of the Vail Plaza Hotel is excesslye, given the location of the building
at the nofthem periphery of the Village core and the height of the buildings on the
adjoining prcperlies (Gateway, Nine Vail Road Condominiums, and the Phase lll and V
Buildings).
The applicant has submifted a scale model of the Vail Plaza Hotel in its Village context
and this model will be available for use by the Planning & Environmental Commission,
Design Review Board and the Town Council during the final review prccess.
G. VIEWS AND FOCAL POINTS
Vail's mountain/valley setting is a fundamental part of its identity. Views of the
mountains, ski slopes, creeks and other natural features are reminders to our visitors of
the mountain environment and, by repeated visibility, are orientation reference points.
Certain building features also provide important orientation references and visual focal
points. The most significant view corridors in the Village have been adopted as part of
Chapter 12-22 ot the Town of Vail Municipal Code. The view corridors adopted should
not be considered exhausted. When evaluating a development proposal, priority should
be given to an analysis of the impacted project on public views. Views that should be
preserved originate from either major pedestrian areas or public spaces, and include
views of the ski mountain, the Gore Range, the Clock Tower, the Rucksack Tower and
other important man-made and natural elements that contribute to the sense of place
associated wiih Vail. These views, which have been adopted by ordinance, were chosen
due to their significance, not only from an aesthetic standpoint, but also as orientation
reference points for pedestrians. Development in Vail Village shall not encroach into any
adopted view corridor, unless approved under Chapter 12-22. Adopled corridors are
listed in Chapter 12-22 of tne Town of Vail Municipal Code. Whether affecting adopied
view corridors or not, the impact of proposed development on views from public ways and
public spaces must be identified and considered where appropriate.
. SfaffResponse;
Although not dircctly impacting one of the five adopted view conidors, as /lsfed in Chapter
12-22 of the Town of Vail Municipal Code, the height of the building will have impacts on
the view from vaious locations nearthe roundabout. Public views of Vail Mountain will
be partially impacted from fhese arcas. Again, a view analysis has been completed
depicting "before and aftef'conditions. Overall, given the building's location, the rccent
changes to the intercection rcsulting from the construction of the roundabout and the
development pattem on adjacent properties, staff feels that the Vail Plaza Hotel complies
with the intent of the Vail Village Urban Design Considerations.
H. SERVICE AND DELIVERY
28
Any building expansion should preserve the functions of existing service alleys. The few
service alleys that exist in the Village are extremely important to minimizing vehicle
congestion on pedestrian ways. The use of, and vehicular access to, those alleys should
not be eliminated except where functional alternatives are not provided.
ln all new and remodeled construction, delivery which avoids or reduces impacts on
pedestrian ways should be explored; and adopted whenever practical, for immediate or
future use. Rear access, basement and below ground delivery conidors reduce
congestion. Weather protection increases delivery efficiency substantially.
Below grade delivery corridors are found in a few buildings in Vail Village (SitzmarUGore
Creek Plaza, Village Center, Vail Village Inn). Consideration should be given to extending
these conidors, where feasible, and the creation of new ones. As buildings are
constructed or remodeled, the opportunity may exist to develop segments of a future
system.
. SlaffResponsei
Through the course of sfaff's review of the Vail Plaza Hotel redevelopment prcposal,
sevenl loading and delivery options werc explored.
The applicant had oiginally proposed to provide far fewer berths than what the cunent
design proposes. However, the applicant has amended the plans to provide a total of five
befths on the property. These five befths will be able to be utilized by the entirc Vail
Village lnn Plaza and arc connected yla a sen'es of elevatorc and below gnde seruice
areas. The seruice arcas arc located away frcm areas of major pedestrian activity. The
main sevice area is adjacent to the South Frontege Road in an enclosed facility. The
centnlized approach to this facility is unprecedented in Vail. Staff would rccommend that
the applicant continue to explorc oppoftunities to imprcve the truck tnffic and passenger
car tnffic inErtace in fhe access way within the enclosed facility.
I. SUN / SHADE
Due to Vail's alpine climate, sun is an important comfort factor, especially in winter, fall
and spring. Shade areas have ambient temperatures substantially below those of
adjacent direct sunlight areas. On all but the warmest of summer days, shade can easi!
lower temperatures below comfortable levels, and thereby, negatively impact use of those
areas.
All new or expanded buildings should not substantially increase the spring and fall
shadow line (March 21 - September 23) on adjacent properties or the public right-of-way.
In all building construction, shade shall be considered in massing and overall height
consideration. Notwithstanding, sun/shade considerations are not intended to restrict
building height allowances, but rather to influence the massing of buildings. Limited
height exceptions may be granted to meet this criieria.
r SfaffResponse:
29
Although the proposed height of the building will diminish the amount of sun light rcaching
the ground in certain areas, and likewise increase shading along the South Frontage
Road (north side of the projecQ, the provision of heated public wall<ways effectively
mitigates this considention, thus providing ice-free and snow-frce sidewalks. Ovenll,
staff believes the proposal complies with the above-descibed considentions.
2. ARCHITECTURE'LANDSCAPE CONSIDERATIONS
ROOFS
Where visible, roofs are oflen one of lhe most dominant architectural elements in any built
environment. In the Village, roof form, color and texture are visibly dominant, and generally
consistent, which tends to unify the building diversity to a great degree.
The cunent expression, and objective, for roofs in lhe Village is to form a consistently unifying
backdrop for the architecture and pedestrian streetscape, and to avoid roofs which tend to stand
out individually or distract visually from the overall character.
Roof Forms
Roofs within the Village are typically gable in form and of moderate-to-low pitch. Shed roofs are
frequently used for small additions to larger buildings. Free-standing shed roofs, butterfly roofs
and flat roofs, can be found in the Village, but they are generally considered to be out of
character and inappropriate. Hip roofs likewise, are rare and generally inconsistent with the
character of the Core Area. Towers are exceptions, in both form and pitch, to the general
criteria, but do have an established local vernacular-style which should be respected.
r SfaffResponse
The roof form of the Vail Plaza Hotel is a mixturc of gables, banel vaults and clipped hips. While
a hip roof is genenlly considered inconslsfent with the chancter of the Village, the applicant
believes this roof form and the incorpontion of dormerc helps to rcduce fhe rnass of the building
and blends well with the roof forms of the surrounding buildings
Pitch
Roof slopes in the Village typically range from 3112lo 6/12, with slightly steeper pitches in limited
appf ications. Again, for visual consistency this general 3112-6112 range should be preserved.
r Sfaff Response
The pitch of the prcposed Vail Plaza Hotel roof is 7/12 and is genenlly in compliance with this
guideline.
Overhangs
Generous roof overhangs are also an established architectural feature in the Village - a
traditional expression of shelter in alpine environments. Roof overhangs typically range from 3 to
6 feet on all edges. Specific design consideration should be given to protection of pedestrian
30
ways adjacent to buildings. Snow slides and runoff hazards can be reduced by roof orientation,
gutters, arcades, etc.
Overhang details are treated with varying degrees of omamentation. Structural elements such
as roof beams are expressed beneath the overhangs, simply or decoratively carved. The roof
fascia is thick and wide, giving a substantial edge to the roof.
r SfaffResponse
The overhangs on the Vail Plaza Hotel vary, depending on location, and arc generally four feet in
depth. The overhangs arc suppofted by timber bracing which adds chancter and visual interest
to the ovenll appearcnce of the building. Staff believes that the proposal complies with the
above-desc i bed crite ri a.
Compositions
The intricate roofscape of the Village as a whole is the result of many individual simple roof
configurations. For any single building a varied, but simple composition of roof planes is
preferred to either a single or a complex arrangement of many roofs. As individual roofs become
more complex, the roof attracts visual attention away from the streetscape and the total
roofscape tends toward "busyness" rather than a backdrop composition.
r Sfaff Response
The roof form on the Vail Plaza Hotel would be considercd a simple composition of rcof planes.
Staff believes the roof composition prcposed by the applicant is consr'sfenf with the intent of this
architectu rcl considerction.
Stepped Roofs
As buildings are stepped to reflect existing grade changes, resulting roof steps should be made
where the height change will be visually significant. Variations which are too subtle appear to be
more stylistic than functional, and out of character with the more straight-fonarard roof design
typical in the Village.
r SfaffResponse
The Vail Plaza Hotel site is rclatively flat (by Vail's standads). While the building does not need
to step to follow the topognphy, vertical and horizontal steps and dormers have been
incorporcted into the roof design. The vertical and hoizontal steps and dormers provide a
reduction in the overall mass of fhe building and adds to the architectunl and visual intercst of
the building. Staff believes that the stepped roofs of the Vail Plaza Hotel comply with the intent
of the above-described citeia.
Materials
Wood shakes, wood shingles, and built-up tar and gravel are almost exclusively used as roof
materials in the Village. For visual consistency, any other materials should have the appearance
of the above.
r Sfar? Response
J1
Most recently, wood shakes and wood shlngles arc being discounged for use as a roofing
mateial due to fire safety concems. At the recommendation of the Town of Vail Fire
Department, the staff has been encourcging develope,rs fo use gnvel, asphalt, tile, metal and
other morc firc-resistant roofing materials on new buildings.
The applicant is proposing to use a blend of greenish concrete tiles on the roof of the hotel. The
tiles will be similar in appearance fo fhose used on the rccent redevelopment of the Austia
Haus. The staff believes fhrs r's an appropriate rcof mateial to use on this project.
Construction
Common roof problems and design considerations in this climate include:
- snowslides onto pedestrian walks - roof dams and water infiltration
- gutters freezing - heavy snow loads
Careful attention to these functional details is recommended, as well as familiarity with the local
building code, proven construction details, and Town ordinances.
For built-up roofs, pitches ot 4112 or steeper do not hold gravel well. For shingle roofs, pitches of
4112 or shallower often result in ice dams and backflow leakage under the shingles.
Cold-roof construction is strongly prefened, unless warm-roof benefits for a specific application
can be demonstrated. Cold-roofs are double-roofs which insulate and prevent snow melt from
intemal building heat. By retaining snow on the roof, many of the problems listed can be
reduced. Periodic snow removal will be required and should be anticipated in the design.
Roof gutters tend to ice-in completely and become ineffective in the Vail climate, especially in
shaded north-side locations. Heating the interior circumference with heat-tape elements or olher
devices is generally necessary to assure adequate run-off control in colder months.
r Star7Response:
The applicant is proposing a cold-roof construction atop the Vail Plaza Hotel. Through the review
of a building permit, staff will ensurc the roof construction complies with the standards prcscibed
the Vail's climatic conditions.
FACADES
Materials
Stucco, brick, wood (and glass) are the primary building materials found in the Village. While not
wishing lo restrict design freedom, existing conditions show that within this small range of
materials much variation and individuality are possible while preserving a basic harmony. Too
many diverse materials weaken the continuity and repetition which unifies the streetscape.
Of the above materials, slucco is the most consistently used material. Most of the buildings in
the Village exhibit some stucco, and there are virtually no areas where stucco is entirely absent.
It is intended to preserve the dominance of stucco by its use in portions, at least, of all new
facades, and by assuring that other materials are not used to the exclusion of stucco in any sub-
area within the Village.
JZ
r Sfar7Response
The exterior mateials proposed by the applicant are a combination of stone, stucco and wood.
No one mateial is ptoposed to dominate the exteior of the hotel. Staff believes the applicant
has complied with this pafticular architectunl considention. The final apprcval of the exteior
materials and their application will be addressed by the Design Review Board at a latter date.
Color
There is greater latitude in the use of color in the Village, but still a discernible consistency within
a general range of colors.
For wood surfaces, trim or siding, darker color tones are prefened - browns, grays, blue-grays,
dark olive, slate-greens, etc. Stucco colors are generally light - white, beige, pale-gold, or other
light pastels. Other light colors could be appropriate, as considered on a case-by-case basis.
Bright colors (red, orange, blues, maroon, etc.) should be avoided for major wall planes, but can
be used effectively (with restraint) for decorative trim, wall graphics, and other accenl elements.
Generally, to avoid both "busy-ness", and weak visual interest, the variety of major wall colors
should not exceed four. nor be less than two.
A color/material change between the ground floor and upper floors is a common and effective
reinforcement of the pedestrian scale of the street.
o Sfarf Response
The applicant has proposed an exteior building color that is compatible with the color of the
existing buildings in the vicinity of the hotel. Staff would like to point out that the applicant is
required to obtain Design Review Boad approval prior to construction and that any concems of
the Commission on this topic will be brought to the aftention of the Board.
Transparencv
Pedestrian scale is created in many ways, but a major factor is the openness, attractiveness, and
generally public character of the ground floor facade of adjacent buildings. Transparent store
fronts are "people attracters", opaque or solid walls are more private, and imply "do not
approach."
On pedestrian-oriented streets such as in the Village, ground floor commercial facades are
proportionately more transparent than upper floors. Upper floors are typically more residential,
private and thus less open.
As a measure oftransparency, the most characteristic and successful ground floorfacades
range from 55% to 7Oo/o of the total length of the commercial facade. Upper floors are often lhe
converse, 3oo/o-45o/o transparenl.
Examples of transparency (lineal feet of glass to lineal feet of facade) on ground level.

r SfaffResponse
Tnnsparency of the Vail Plaza Hotel is really only an issue a/ong the rctail space frcnting on the
plaza arca. A measurc of transparency of the Vail Plaza Hotel (easUsouth courtyard elevations)
indicates that 58oA of the ground floor facade is tnnsparcnt. Staff believes that the ground level
is tnnsparcnt enough to provide the street appearcnce encounged by the design
considerations.
Windows
In addition to the general degree of transparency, window details are an important source of
pedestrian scale-giving elements. The size and shape of windows are often a response to the
function of the adjacent street. For close-up, casual, pedestrian viewing windows are typically
sized to human dimensions and characteristics of human vision. (Large glass-wall store-fronts
suggest uninterrupted viewing, as from a moving car. The sense of intimate pedestrian scale is
diminished). Ground floor display windows are typically raised slightly 18 inches V and do not
extend much over 8 feet above the walkway level. Ground floors, which are noticeably above or
below grade, are exceptions.
The articulation of the window itself is still another element in giving pedestrian scale (human-
related dimensions). Glass areas are usually subdivided to express individual window elements -
and are further subdivided by mullions into small panes - which is responsible for much of the
old-world charm of the Village. Similarly, windows are most often clustered in banks, juxtaposed
with plain wall surfaces to give a pleasing rhythm. Horizontal repetilion of single window
elements, especially over long distances, should be avoided.
Large single pane windows occur in the Village, and provide some contrast, as long as they are
generally consistent in form with other windows. Long continuous glass is out of character. Bay,
bow and box windows are common window details, which further variety and massing to facades
- and are encouraged.
Reflective glass, plastic panes, and aluminum or other metal frames are not consistent in the
Village and should be avoided. Metal-clad or plastic-clad wood frames, having the appearance
of painted wood have been used successfully and are acceptable.
. SfaffResponse
The Vail Plaza Hotel prcposal is in compliance with the above-descibed design considention.
Staff believes the use of dormerc with windows, bay windows and windows with mullions adds to
the architectunl charm and visual integrity of the hotel. Staff recommends that the use
of mullions in the windows at the grcund level become a condition of final Design Review
apprcval.
Doors
Like windows, doors are important to character and scale-giving architectural elements. They
should also be somewhat transparent (on retail commercial facades) and consistent in detailing
with windows and other facade elements.
34
Doors with glass contribute to overall facade transparenry. Due to the visibility of people and
merchandise inside, windowed doors are somewhal more effective in drawing people inside to
retail commercial facades. Although great variations exisl, 25-30% V transparency is felt to be a
minimum transparency objective. Private residences, lodges, restaurants, and other non-retail
establishments have different visibility and character needs, and doors should be designed
accordingly. Sidelight windows are also a means of introducing door-transparency as a
complement or substitute for door windows.
Articulated doors have the decorative quality desired for Vail. Flush doors, light aluminum
frames, plastic applique elements all are considered inappropriate. As an expression of entry,
and sheltered welcome, protected entry-ways are encouraged. Doorways may be recessed,
extended, or covered.
r SfaffResponse
Staff believes the applicant's proposal complies with the above-descibed citeia.
Trim
Prominent wood trim is also a unifoing feature in the Village. Particularly at ground floor levels,
doors and windows have strong, contrasting framing elements, which tie the various elements
together in one composition. Windows and doors are treated as strong visual features. Glass-
wall detailing for either is typically avoided.
. Sfarf Response;
Staff believes the applicant's proposal complies with the above-descibed citeia.
DECKS AND PATIOS
Dining decks and patios, when properly designed and sited, bring people to the streets,
opportunities to look and be looked at, and generally contribute to the liveliness of a busy street
making a richer pedestrian experience than if those slreets were empty.
A review of successful decks/patios in Vail reveals several common characteristics:
- direct sunlight from 11:00 - 3:00 increases use by many days/year and protects from
wind.
- elevated to give views into the pedestrian walk (and not the reverse).
- physical separation from pedestrian walk.
- overhang gives pedestrian scale/shelter.
Decks and patios should be sited and designed with due consideration to:
- sun
- wind
- views
- pedestrian activity
r Sfarf Response;
The majoity of the decks and patios on the Vail Plaza Hotel arc located on the south side of the
building, facing Vail Mountain and the plaza. Wth the exception of the two outdoor dining decks
on the plaza, fhese decks and patios are for the use of the guesfs of fhe hotel and not the
35
O
genenl public. Staff believes that the proposal complies with this design considention.
BALCONIES
Balconies occur on almost all buildings in the Village which have at least a second level facade
wall. As strong repetitive features they:
- give scale to buildings.
- give life to the street (when used).
- add variety to building forms.
- provide shelter to pathways below.
r Sfarf Response
Again, the majoity of the balconies on the Vail Plaza Hotel are located on the south side of the
building facing Vail Mountain and away from the l-70 tnffic noise. Staff belieyes that the
proposal complies with this design considention.
Color
Balconies contrast in color (dark) with the building, typically matching the trim colors.
. Sfat7 Response
Like the exteior color of the building, the Design Review Boad will be rcviewing this aspect of
the proposal.
Size
Balconies extend far enough from the building to cast a prominent shadow pattern. Balconies in
Vail are functional as will as decorative. As such, they should be of useable size and located to
encourage use. Balconies less than six feet deep are seldom used, nor are those always in
shade. not oriented to views or street life.
r SfaffResponse
Staff believes this criteia has been met.
Mass
Balconies are commonly massive, yet semi-transparent, disiinctive from the building, yet allowing
the building to be somewhat visible behind. Solid balconies are found occasionally, and tend to
be too dominant obscuring the building architecture. Light balconies lack the visual impact which
ties the Village together.
. Sfa,TResponse
The balconies on the Vail Plaza Hotel are proposed to be semi-tnnsparent in appeannce.
O Materials
Wood balconies are by far the most common. Vertical structural members are the most
dominant visually, often decoratively sculpted. Decorative wrought iron balconies are also
consistent visually where the vertical members are close enough to create semi-transparency.
36
O
Pipe rails, and plastic, canvas or glass panels should be avoided.
o StaffResponse
The mateial to be used in the construction of the balconies on the hotel is wood, with vertical
structunl members. A detail of the niling will be rcviewed by the DRB.
ACCENT ELEMENTS
The life, and festive quality of the Village is given by judicious use of accent elements which give
color, movement and contrast to the Village.
Colorful accent elements consistent with existing character are encouraged, such as:
Awnings and canopies - canvas, bright color or stripes of two colors.
Flags, banners - hanging from buildings, poles, and even across streets for special
occ€lsrons.
Umbrellas - over tables on outdoor patios.
Annual color flowers - in beds or in planters.
Accent lighting- buildings, plazas, windows, trees (even Christmas lights all winter).
Painled wall graphics - coats of arms, symbols, accent compositions, etc.
Fountains - sculptural, with both winter and summer character.
r SfaffResponse:
O Accent lighting on the building, annual flowel in containerc and in the planting beds, potted trees
deconted with Chistmas /lgffs and inigated flower boxes arc proposed to provide colorful
accent elements on the Vail Plaza Hotel. Staff would suggest that the applicant prcvide an
additional accent symbol (clock, crcst, etc.) on the main elevator tower. The tower is visible from
a distance as illustnted in the view analysis and would serye as an important focal point to
guesfs and visitors-
LANDSCAPE ELEMENTS
Landscape considerations include, but go beyond, the placement of appropriate plant materials.
- plant materials
- Paving
- retaining walls
- street fumiture (benches, kiosks, trash, etc.)
- lighting
- signage
Plant Materials
Opportunities for planting are not exlensive in the Village, which places a premium on the plant
selection and design of ihe sites that do exist. Framework planting of trees and shrubs should
include both deciduous and evergreen species foryear round continuity and interest.
Native plants are somewhat limited in variety, but are clearly best able to withstand the harsh
winter climate, and to tie the Village visually with iis mountain setting.

r SfaffResponse
A conceptual landscape plan has been submifted by the applicant. The plan has been
developed with some ass/sfance of Town sfaff since a majoity of the landscape improvements
arc prcposed on Town prcperty. The prcposed landscape design takes into considention
factors such as the location of the plantings (sun/shade), maintenance, climate, etc. Staff would
suggest that the final landscape plan be rcviewed by the Design Review Board along with the
fi na I strcetsca pe i m prove me nts.
Pavino
The freeze/thaw cycle at this altitude virtually eliminates common site-cast concrete as a paving
surface (concrete spall). High-strength concrete may work in selected conditions. Asphalt, brick
(on concrete or on sand), and concrete block appearto be best suited to the area.
In general, paving treatments should be coordinated with that of the adjacent public right-of-way.
The Town uses the following materials for all new construction:
- asphalt: general use pedestrian streets
- brick on concrete: fealure areas (plazas, intersections, fountains, etc.)
. Sfar7Response
The paving mateial used in the public areas around the Vail Plaza Hotel has yet to be
determined and finalized. Again, the staff would suggest that the final paving trcatment be
determined with the asslsfance of the tusign Review Board.
Retaininq Walls
Retaining walls, to raise planting areas, often protects the landscape from pedestrians and
snowplows, and should provide seating opportunities:
Two types of material are already well established in the Village and should be utilized for
continuity:
- splitface moss rock veneer - Village Core pedestrian streets (typical).
- rounded cobble hidden mortar - in open space areas if above type not already
established nearby.
r SfaffResponse
Landscape retaining walls are proposed on the north, west and soufh sides of the building. The
retaining walls arc needed to provide prcpergnding and dninage around the building. The
surtace material of the new landscape retaining will match the stone on the exterior of the
building.
38
Liqhtino
Light standards should be coordinated with those used by the Town in the public right-of-way.
. Sfat7 Response
As part of the strcetscape improvements along Vail Road, East Meadow Dive and the South
Frontage Road, the applicant will be installing new Village light fixturcs. The number and
locations of the new lights was determined through consultation with Town staff.
Siqnaqe
Refer to Town of Vail Signage Ordinance
r SfaffResponse:
Given the staging of the application, signage has not yet been considercd by the staff or the
applicant. The staff has rcquested that the applicant prepare a comprehensive sign prognm for
the Vail Plaza Hotel for review at a futurc date. The comprehensive sign prognm will be
rcviewed by the DRB.
SERVICE
Trash handling is extremely sensitive in a pedestrian environment. Trash collection is primarily
made in off-peak hours. ll is the building owners responsibility to assure that existing trash
storage problems are corrected and future ones avoided.
Trash, especially from food service establishments, must be carefully considered; including the
following:
- quantities generated
- pick-up frequency/access
- container sizes
- enclosure location/design
- visual odor impacts
Garbage collection boxes or dumpslers must be readily accessible for collection at all times yet
fully screened from public view - pedestrians, as well as upper level windows in the vicinity.
Materials
Exlerior materials for garbage enclosures should be consistent with that of adjacent buildings.
Gonstruction
Durability of the structure and operability of doors in all weather are prime concems. Metal
frames and posts behind the preferred exterior materials should be considered to withstand the
inevitable abuse these structures suffer.

F.
access/b/e frcm inside the building. Access to the dumpster and bins will not impede the
operation of the loading/delivery functions. The driveway and inteior building height is designed
to accommodate tnsh trucks. Staff believes the applicant's ptoposal complies with the above-
descibed citeia.
ldentification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that affect the
property on which the special development district is proposed.
According to the Official Town of Vail Hazard maps the Vail Plaza Hotel development site
is not located in any geologically sensitive areas or the 1O0-year floodplain.
Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to
produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural features,
vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.
The site plan, building design and location and open space provisions of the proposal
have been reviewed at length by the staff, the Town of Vail Design Review Board and
Jeff Winston, of Winston & Associates, the Town's Urban Design Consultant. This
review is the culmination of numerous meetings between the staff and applicant's design
team, five conceptual reviews by the Design Review Board and three meetings with Mr.
Winston. The staffs review has focused primarily on the technical aspects of the
proposal (vehicular access, driveway grades, required distances between slructures,
sidewalk widths, building orientation, development standards, etc.) while the Board and
Mr. Winston focused on reviewing the proposal for compliance with the design guidelines
and other applicable elements of the Town's planning documents.
Upon review of the proposal, the Town of Vail Design Review has voted 3-0 to forward a
preliminary recommendation of approval, with conditions, to the Vail Town Council. In
reviewing the proposal the Board was most concerned with the aesthetic qualities of the
hotel and less concerned with the development's responsiveness and sensitivity to
natural features and vegetation. The lack of concern with the latter criteria is to due to
the absence of any existing natural features or vegetation on the development. A
condition of the Board's approval was a request for a detailed landscape plan to insure
adequate provisions are made for vegetation on the development site. The plans shall be
reviewed and approved by the Board as part of their final review process. A copy of the
Board's preliminary recommendation to the Town Council has been attached for
reference (Exhibit K).
Similar to the Design Review Board, Jeff Winston, the Town's Urban Design Consultant,
has also recommended approval of the hotel proposal. As stated previously, the
consultant's review focused primarily upon compliance with the design guidelines and the
urban design considerations outlined in the Vail Village Master Plan. The findings of the
consultant are thal with the exception of opportunities to lower the eave lines of the hotel,
the proposal generally complies with the master plan.
The staff reviewed the technical aspects of the proposal for compliance with the
prescribed regulations. Upon review of the proposal, staff finds that the applicant will
need lo be provided relief for the proposed deviations from the building height, setback
and multi-use parking credit formula if this proposal is to be approved. As discussed
previously, staff believes that the request for additional building height is reasonable and
appropriate given the existing circumstances and the ability to provide employee housing
units on-site. We also believe that relief should be provided from the parking
requirements of the regulations. Staff feels that relief is justified given size of the hotel,
the mixture of uses within the hotel and within the District as a whole. and recent trends
40
in resort travel. Staff is no longer concemed with regard to the proposed Vail Road
setback. We believe that some encroachment of building improvements into the front
selback is appropriate given the context of the built environment of the area, the hotel
design along the street fagade, and the provision of open plaza space on the interior of
the development. While the applicant speaks of average setbacks, staff is more focused
on the minimum distances the face of the hotel and the back of the curb along Vail Road.
The minimum distance proposed is now 22 feet from the multi-story face of the hotel to
the back of the curb. Within this area the applicant can provide an eight-foot wide paver
sidewalk, landscaping, with room for snow slorage. Staff would recommend that the
applicant not be required to increase the proposed Vail Road setback.
G. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing on and
off-site traffic circulation.
The on-site/off-site vehicular and pedestrian circulation system design has been
discussed in great detail. Much of the discussion with the Board and Commission
ceniered on providing adequate pedestrian and vehicular access to, from and within the
development site. In response to the concerns, the applicant has redesigned many areas
of the plan. The pedestrian areas include the pedestrian connection through the hotel to
the Gateway Building, the alleyray spaces between the hotel and Phases lll & V, the
plaza area south of the hotel, and the pedestrian link from the hotel entrances to the new
bus stop on East Meadow Drive. The vehicular areas included providing adequate
turning and maneuvering area at the porte cochere, the entrance only and exit only
driveway locations on Vail Road and the entering and exiting design of the loading/
delivery facility.
Pursuant to the submittal requirements for the major amendment request, the applicant
was required to submit a Traffic Report. A Traffic Report has been prepared by the traffic
consulting firm of Felsburg, Holt & Ullevig. The purpose of the report is to evaluate the
impacts of the hotel development and the proposed traffic pattern circulation on the
Town's street system. This report has been used by staff to analyze traffic impacts of this
project. In summary the transportation engineers find that the proposed vehicular
circulation system is reasonable and appropriate. lt is believed that through minor
mitigation measures such as signage and an enter only/exit only design the traffic
impacts and safety concems of the Town can be resolved.
A copy of the Traffic Report and a memorandum from Greg Hall to George Ruther, dated
December 9, 1999 have been attached for reference (Exhibit L).
Overall, staff believes that with several minor changes and revisions to the plans, the
proposal meets the criteria of providing adequate on-site and off-site vehicular and
pedestrian circulalion systems.
H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and functions.
Staff believes that the landscape improvements proposed will be beneficial to the quality
of the landscaping in both the public and private spaces in the vicinity of the hotel.
Through the implementation of the Town of Vail Streetscape Master Plan, a portion of
East Meadow Drive will be enhanced aesthetically. The improvemenls will include new
heated brick paver walkways, the completion of the bus stop, updated streetscape
lighting, and wider pedestrian walkways and stairs.
The landscape elements of the proposal have been reviewed on a conceptual basis by
4I
the Town of Vail Design Review Board. Upon review of the proposal the Board has
voiced a favorable response to the applicant. A final landscape plan shall be reviewed
and approved by the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a building permit. The
design of the plaza area south of the hotel is consistent the previous direction and intent
of the overall development of the District. The creation of ihe plaza, with the associaied
pool area, landscaping, outdoor caf6, pedestrian walkways and retail store fronts
complies with the guidelines of the Open Space Plan, an element of the Vail Village
Master Plan. Pursuant to the Open Space Plan, the area south of the hotel and interior to
the development is intended to be a public plaza with greenspace opportunities. Staff
believes that based upon the sun/shade analysis prepared by the applicant, the plaza
area will receive adequale amounts of sun light throughout the year. The access to sun
light will insure a pleasant, useable plaza area in the Town.
The proposed pool and hot tub deck area is intended to address the recreational needs of
the District. The use of these recreational amenities will be made available to the owners
of property within the District. The new pool will replace the existing pool on the Phase lV
development site and will insure consistency with the general direction of the Open space
Plan.
Overall, staff believes that the proposal complies with this criteria.
Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the special development
district.
The need for the phasing of the hotel redevelopment is not anticipated at this time. A
construction staging plan will be required at the time of building permit issuance. The
plan will be reviewed to maximize the workable and functional relationship between the
redevelopment of the hotel and the existing uses, structures and traffic systems in the
vicinity of the development site. The goal of the plan will be maximize the efficiency of
the construction process and to minimize the negative impacts inherent to major
construction projects.
VIII. CRITERIA AND FINDINGS FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
Upon review of Section 18.60, the Community Development Department recommends approval
of the request for a conditional use permit to allow for the operation of a 50 unit fractional fee
club within the Vail Plaza Hotel based upon the following factors:
A. Consideration of Factors:
Before acting on a conditional use permit application, the Planning and Environmental
Commission (PEC) shall consider the factors with respect to the proposed use:
1. Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of the
Town.
In January of 1997, the Vail Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 22,
Series of 1996. In part, this ordinance amended the Public
Accommodation Zone District allowing fractional fee clubs as a conditional
use and set forth criteria for the Commission to consider when evaluating
such a request. Since that time the Austria Haus Club redevelopment
project has been completed and the Gore Creek Club has been approved
by the Town. The Austria Haus contains 28 fractional fee club units and
1Z
2.
3.
the Gore Creek Club has been approved to construct 66 units.
The applicant is requesting the issuance of a conditional use permit to
allow for the operation of a fractional fee club within the Vail Plaza Hotel.
The proposed club would be comprised of 50 two and three bedroom club
units. These units would range in size from 920 square lo 2,282 square
feet. The average club unit size is approximately 1,335 square feet in
size. Each of the units has been designed in such a manner as to provide
multiple "keys" to for lock-off units. The total number of "keys" in the club
is 108. According to the applicant, the ownership of the club units will be
divided into a maximum of 1112'n intervals for lhe 24 winter weeks during
the ski season, while the remaining 28 shoulder season and summer
weeks would be owned by the hotel. This ownership program allows for
the most attractive weeks of the year to be sold as club units with the
proceeds helping to finance the redevelopment project. The remaining
interest in lhe clubs is then used by the hotel to support the conference
facility during the summer months. According to the applicant this
program will create the best possible occupancy of the hotel and maximize
the viability of the conference facility.
Through the adoption of Ordinance No. 22, Series of 1996, the Town
further recognized the need for lodging alternatives for our guests and
visitors. In passing the ordinance the Town Council found that quality
fractional fee clubs are an appropriate means of increasing occupancy
rates, maintaining and enhancing short-term rental availability and
diversiffing the resort lodging market product within the Town of Vail.
Equally as important, the Council believed that fractional fee clubs were
simply another of many forms of public accommodations. lt has been a
long held belief that in order for the Town to remain competitive and on the
leading edge of resort development, that alternative lodging opportunities
must be created and creative financing vehicles for hotel redevelopment
must be implemented.
Staff believes that the conditional use permit for a fractional fee club within
the Vail Plaza Hotel will be beneficial to the Town and will have a positive
impact on the development objectives of the Community.
The effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population,
transportation facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation
faoilities, and other public facilities needs.
Staff believes that this review criteria has been satisfied as previously
discussed in Section lV of this memorandum.
Effect upon traffic with particular refenence to congestion, automotive
and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control,
access, maneuverability, and removal of snow from the street and
parking areas.
Staff believes that this review criteria has been satisfied as previously
discussed in Section lV of this memorandum.
Effect upon the character of the arca in which the proposed use is to
be located, including the scale and bulk of the proposed use in
4.
5.
relation to surrounding uses.
Staff believes that this review criteria has been satisfied as previously
discussed in Section lV of this memorandum.
Prior to the approval of a conditional use permit for a time-share
estate, fractional fee, fractional fee club, or time-share license
proposal, the following shall be considered:
a. lf the proposal for a fractional fee club is a redevelopment of
an existing facility, the fractional fee club shall maintain an
equivalency of accommodation units as presently existing.
Equivalency shall be maintained either by an equal number of
units or by square footage. lf the proposal is a new
development, it shall provide at least as much accommodation
unit GRFA as fractional fee club unit GRFA.
The Vail Plaza Hotel proposal is a redevelopment of an existing hotel. The
proposed hotel shall be required to maintain an equivalency of the
presently existing number of accommodation units. The applicant is
proposing to meet the equivalency requirement by replacing an equal
number of accommodation units. According to information on file in the
Community Development Department 78 accommodation units exist in
Phase lV of the Vail Village Inn. The applicant is proposing to replace the
existing units with 99 new hotel rooms totaling approximately 35,818
square feet.
b. Lock-off units and lock-off unit square footage shall not be
included in the calculation when determining the equivalency
of existing accommodation units or equivalency of existing
squane footage.
Even though lock-offs cannot be counted towards meeting the equivalency
requirement, nor are they needed in this case, the applicant has
maintained 62 lock-off units in the Vail Plaza Hotel. The staff and
applicant feel that lhese units will be rented as short-term
accommodations when not in use by the club members, and lhus enhance
the overall hotel bed base in Town.
c. The ability of the proposed project to create and maintain a
high level of occupancy.
The fractional fee club component of the Vail Plaza Hotel proposal is
intended to provide additional hotel and "hotel-type" accommodation units
in the Town of Vail. The applicant is proposing to incorporate 50 member-
owned club units (fractional fee club units with 62 lock-off units), with 99
new accommodation (hotel) rooms. Although not included in the
equivalency requirement, the fractional fee club units have been designed
to accommodate lock-off unils. Staff believes that lock-off units provide an
additional community benefil of added "pillows". lf a fractional fee club
unit owner purchases an interest in a multiple bedroom unit, and does not
desire to utilize all the bedrooms, they can then have the opportunity of
returning the unused bedrooms (lock-off units) to a rental program.
44
Staff feels that by providing lock-off units, and managing the availability of
the lock-off units in a rental program when not in use, a fractional fee club
project can significantly increase the availability of accommodation units in
the Town of Vail.
Through our research on the fractional fee issue back in 1996, staff then
identified some potential positive impacts of fraclional fee units in the
Town of Vail:
A) Activity during the "shoulder seasons" tends to increase due to an
increase in year-round occupancy;
B) The attraction of revenue-generating tourists,
C) The efficient utilization of resources- This is the\uarm beds" concept;
D) More pride of ownership and community buy-in with fractional fee club
units than with accommodation units;
E) Increased levels of occupancy; and
F) Increased resorl exposure due to the extensive number of interval
owners.
d. Employee housing may be required as part of any new or
redevelopment fractional fee club project requesting density
over that allowed by zoning. The number of employee housing
units will be consistent with employee impacts that are
expected as a result ofthe project.
The staff included the fractional fee club units into the calculation of the
employee generation resulting from the proposed major amendment of the
Special Development District. Based strictly on lhe number of club units,
the development will generate a need tor 125 "nera/'employees. When the
multiplier of 0.30 is faclored in, the fractional fee club generates 38 of the
"nera/' employees, which the developer must provide deed-restricted
housing for.
e. The applicant shall submit to the Town a list of all owners of
existing units within the project or building; in wriften
statements from 100% of the owners of existing units
indicating their approval, without condition, of the proposed
fractional fee club. No wriften approval shall be valid if it is
signed by the owner more than 60 days prior to the date of
filing the application for a conditional use.
The applicant, Waldir Prado, d.b.a. Daymer Corporation, and legally
represented by Jay Peterson, is the sole owner of the property. No other
written approval is required.

Re: Vail Plaza Hotel
George:
This is a written description of off-site impacts and their proposed mitigation as requested by your letter
dated l0/13/99.
C.
Pedestrian Impacts -Vail Road. We will be proviriing sffeetscape improvements in a".ordan"e
rvith the streetscape master plan for the eastem side of Vail Road Iiom the comer of East Meadow
Drive to the northern most properfy line of our site. These improvements include new "Village"
light fixtures and standards, curb and gutter, and a six-foot wide brick paver sidewalk to match the
color, pattem, and size of the existing sidewalk at East Meadow Drive. Additional landscape
improvements and final sidewalk configuration will be provided in accordance with design review
zoning regulations.
Pedestrian Impacts - East Nleadow Drive. The Vail Plaza Hotel is proposing to provide
streetscape improvements in accordance with the streetscape master plan for the northern side of
East IVleadow Drive from the comer of Vail Road to the westemmost of the Vail Village In:r PhaseIA stnrcture to mitigate pedestrian impacts in this area. The proposed improvements include
replacement of the existing cube fixtures with new "Village" light fixtures and standards and a six-
foot wide brick paver sidewalk to match the color, pattern, and size of the existing sidervalk at the
comer of East Meadow Drive and Vail Road. Additional landscape improvements and final
sidewalk contiguration wili be provided rn accordance with design revi€w zoning regulations.
Pedestrian Impacts - South Frontage Road. The Vail Plaza Hotel is proposing to provide
streetscape improvements in accordance with the master plan tbr the southem side of the South
Frontage Road liom the comer of Vail Road to the westemmost curb of the Vail Village Inn Pluse
V driveway to mitigate pedestrian impacts in this area. The proposed improvements include ne..v
"V:iilage" light fixtures and standards. curb and gutter. and a six-foot i,vide brick pavel sidewalk to
match the color. pattem, and size of the existing side,,valk at along tl-re South Frontase Road.
Additional landscape improvements and ilnal sidervaik contiguraiion will be provided in
accordance with design revierv and other appUcabie zoning regulatious as rvell as Colorado
Deparlment of Transportation.
Pedestrian Impacts - South Frontage Road. 'l'he Vail Plaza Hotel is proposiug to provide

Frontage Road from the easternmost curb of the Vail Village lnn Phase V ciriveway to the
\vesternmost comer of East lVleadow Drive ('Crossroads) to mitigate pedestrian irnpacts in this area.
The proposed improvements include white concrete standar<i curb and gutter. irnd a six-tbot rvide.
four-inch thick, reinforced. white concrete sidervalk. These improvements specifically exclude
utility relocation. engineered structures tbr retainrng earth or.r-,ipo* of the sidewaik, irandraiis,

guardrails. or walls meant to provide for the safety of pedcsbians on the sidewalk. and/or drainage
systems meant to control surface water runoff. It is assumed that the items specifically excluded
will be provided by another entity to be coordinated with the proposed sidewalk. Addittonally it is
assumed that all improvements along the South Frontage Road will be at the discretion of the
Colorado Department of Transportation.
E. Public Transportation Impacts - East lVleadow Drive. The Vaii Plaza Hotel is proposing to
provide public transportation infrastucture improvements in accordance with the steetscape
master plan for a new bus stop adjacent to the westernmost portion of the Vail Village Inn Phase
IA structure to mitigate impacts in this area. The prooosed improvements relocation of fixed bus
signage and t-xtures, and a bus stop similar in size, materials and character to the existing bus stop
located on the south side of the roadway. Additional landscape improvements and final
conliguration will be provided in accordance with desigr reyiew and other applicable zoning
regulations.
It is our understanding that the existing surface water runoff from the existing structures and the proposed
sEuctures on the site is would be in the same quantities and would drain to the same locations as currently
exist. Additionaily, we would assume no increase in surface water on our site would occur from the design
of proposed drainage structures on the South Frontage Road. Therefore would assume *rat no major
drainage infrastucture improvements would be necessary to accommodate the proposed structures.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concems.
Sincerely,

Re:Vail Plnza Hotel
George:
This a final written statement as requested by your letter dated 10113199 to address design criteria A
through I as outiined in section 18.40.080 of the town code. It is our understanding that these nine (9)
critena are to be used in evaluating the merits of the Vaii Plaza Hotel, the final phase of the Vail Viilage
Inn Speciai Development District-
A. Design Compatibility. We believe that the hotel is designed in such a way that is both compatible and
sensitive to the environment, neighborhood, and adjacent properties.
Setbacks are consistent with the underllng zoning in that they maintain an average of nrenty tbet
(20') from most adjacent properties to the primary building walls. Additionally, the structure marntains
setbacks consistent with adjacent properties along both the Frontage Road and Vail Road.
IVIass and bulk are sensitive to adjacent structures in that the hotel is designed to step up in height
and bulk from both the steet and adjacent smaller s|ructures in order to maintain a comfortable
pedestian scale while maintaining consistent heights with adjacent structures roof lines and ridges.
Additionally, we have purposefirlly hipped most of the roof forms at or along public sheets and plazas
to provide a consistent bulk plane at steet level. The stepping and broken ridge lines, along with
variations in materials and wall planes act to break down the overall mass and bulk of the project and
relate the hotel to the surrounding neighborhood.
The architectural design is meant to be both compatible with both thd Gateway buiiding and the
remainder of the special development district while providing some idendqv to the hotel as both a
recognizable and viable commercial structue within the conmunity.
B. Uses, Densit-v, and Activity. The Vail Plaza Hotel is the last phase of the Vail Village Inn Special
I)evelopment District and as such was always nteant to be the anchor or most densely developed
portion of the dist'ict. As a tlll serv'ice hotel. which includes conference. spa. rcstaurant, and
commercial activities, the hotel meant to act as a "rnagnet" that dlalvs people tluough the other
smaller, commercial based stntctures in the spe cial development district, (including the Gatervay
building). Additionally. the hotel is legally required to provide loading and delivery selices,
automobile access, and parking for the lemainder of the special developmerrt district.
C. Parking and Loading. We believe our parking and loading lacilities are in compliance with the
requirements of chapter I 8.52.
We are providing six (6), 12' x 25'r 14' underground loading benhs. The ma,rimum required is
five (5) L2' x25' berths in accordance with 18.52.150. We believe our parking facilities meet required
number of spaces requil'ed by zoning chapter 18.52.

t0/19t99
D. Conformity with Nlaster Plan. We believe our development substantially complies with the goals
expressed in the various plans contained within the adopted Vaii Village Master Plan.
The Land Use Plan indicates our site as Medium,/High Density Residential and as such
recommends a lodging onentation with a limited amount of accessory retail.
We are proposing to provide an increased amount of "urban open space" or public plaza and
buffering greenspace in the areas indicated as such tn The Open Space Plan.
We believe that our project compiies with the recommendations in The Parking and Circttlation
PIan. We are proposing an intemal connection to the Vail Gateway shared pedestrian/auto area as
indicated, an improved pedestrian connection to East Meadow Drive including new bus lacilities as
indicated, and a secondary extemal pedestrian connection to Vail Road between phase five and our
project. Additionally we would be providing sidewalk improvements from the new bus stop on East
Meadow Drive to the Gateway on Vail Road, and BikelPedestrian sidewalk improvements from the
Vail Gateway to the Vail Transportation Center on the Frontage Road.
We believe that our design substantially complies with Building Height Plan in that the plan
indicates buildings offive stories both to the east and west ofour site along the frontage road and north
and south of our site on Vail Road. Our design maintains this four to five story relationship with our
neighbors. We feel as though the tbree to four story designation is inconsistent with current conditions
and are not applicable as they reiat€ to our site. It is our understanding that these heights indicated in
the plan '"vere based on preserving views to Vaii Mountain from the four way stop at the Intersection of
Vail Road and the Frontage Road prior to development of the Vail Gateway and tire Roundabouts.
Because these views no longer exist with the development of the Vail Gateway as ackr:owledged in the
plan, and because stopping to view the mountain is actually discouraged by the movement of traffic in
the roundabout, we tbel that these standards may no longer apply.
Tlte Action P/an indicates our site as an area for potential residentiali lodging infill rn accordance
with previous town approvals wrth which our proposed project is consistent.
-["he Vail Village Sub-At'eas I-] of the Vail Yillage Master Pian indicates our site as the final
phase of SDD #6. In doing so, it identifies a series of goals, which we believe we comply with.
Itern 1.2 encourages "the upgrading and redevelopment ofresidential and commercial facilities."
Itern 2.3 "strongly encourages the development short term accommodation units" and recognizes that
r,vhen units are "developed above the existing densily levels, they should be managed in such a weiy
that allows for short term overnight rental". .
Iten 2.4 encourages the development of new commercial rnfiil compafible ',vith existing land uses.
Itent 2.6 encourages the development of affordable housing units and may be required as part of any
redevelopment project requesting a density over ievels allowed by existing zoning.
Iten 3.2 recognizes the rvill to "reduce vehicular kaffic in the viltage to the greatest extent possrble".
Itern 4.I encourages the tmprovement of exrsting open space to create new plazas with greenspace.
Iten 5.1 recognizes the need and desire to provide fc.r parkrng demands on site and u,ith underground
and visually coucealed parking.
Itent 6.1 reco-unizes the need io provide serv"ice and delivery facilities tbr existing and new
development.
E. Natural Hazards' We believe there are no nahrral hazards that may affect development of this site.
F. Site and Building Design, We believe rve have addressed this issue by compliance with the Vari
Viilase Master Plan.

t0t19i99
G. Pedestrian/Vehicular Circulation, We believe we have addressed this issue by compliance with the
Vail Village Master Plan. Additionally, raffic shrdies indicate that vehicular circulation patrems are
considered safe and have relatively little impact on e,risting vehicular circulation systems.
H. Functional and Aesthetic Lrndscaping. We believe we have addressed this issue by compliance
with the Vail Village Master Plan. Additionaiiy, we believe we have substantially improved on the
amount and quality ofpublicly accessible plazas, greenspaces, and pedestrian circulation systems.
I. Phasing Plan. The development will be conskucted in one phase with completion anticipated for late
fall of200l.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concems regarding the information presented.
Additionally, if you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Vail Plaza Hotel
Dear George:
The purpose of this memo is twofold, First, to set forth our employee housing proposal
and, second, to explain the fractional fee concept.
L Emnlovee Housine. Attached to this memorandum is our Vail Plaza Hotel
staffrng requirements set forth by departments. The chart I believe is self-explanatory. As you
catt r"J, rather that full-time versus part-time, we have used work hours per year whioh I bslieve
is a more accurate way to calculate staffing requirements. We have calculated our existing
staffrng requirements the same way, in order to arrive at a net increase in employees for the new
hotel. This net increase is 105 employees'
Our proposal is to provide housing for 30% of these employees. Ideally, from our
standpoint, we would like to provide all housing within the Town of Vail. However, because of
timited opportunities within the Town, we would request the option to provide the housing
outside the Town limits, if necessary. The numbers would be the same whether inside or outside
the Town.
2. Fractional Fee. The Vail Plaza Hotel will contain forty-seven dwelling units
which will be operated and managed by the owner of the Vail Plaza Hotel. The hotel would sell
a maximum of twenty-eight prime winter and/or summer weeks with the hotel managing and
operating those weeks for the owners. The remaining twenty-four weeks would remain with the
ownership of the hotel and would be managed and operated the same as the hotel. There would
be an obligation that the weeks remaining under the ownership of the hotel be available only as a
"short-term r€ntd," the same as any hotel room. The number of onnrers would be limited to a
minimum of six and a manimum of twelve, pursuant to zoning requirements.
Ifyou have any questions, please call.

INTRODUCTION
Land Use, Site and Study area Boundaries
Zehren and Associates, Inc. is proposing the Vail Plaza Hotel development to be located on the
southeast corner of Vail Road and the South Frontage Road in Vail. Colorado. This
development will be replacing three existing buildings with one building. The site location is
shown in trigure 1. The existing three buildings consist of a total of 41 .643 square feet. The
proposed oe",elopment will consist of a total of approximately 15O,OOO square feet of various
uses incli.rding accommodation units, a restaurant, a lounge, a spa, and retail space.
The proposed development will have one main access onto the South Frontage Road. The
main access will serve as the entrance to the four level parking garage. A second access east
of the main acces$, will be used for most deliveries. The site plan is shown in Figure 2, The
impacts of the project traffic at the site access points and the roundabout south of l-70 are
presented in this report.
The purpose of this repon is to address the projected traffic impacts associated with the Vail
Plaza Hotel development proposal, and to identify any roadway or traffic control improvements
required as a result of these impacts.
B. Existing Conditions
The existing conditions in the vicinity of the project site are illustrated in-Figure 3. Currently
there are two accesses to Vail Plaza Hotel site, The main access is on the South Frontage
Road and the second access is on Vail Road. The South Frontage Road runs east/west
through Vail with a posted speed limit of 25 MPH adjacent to the site. Vail Road runs
north/south from the roundabout intersection with the Frontage Road providing access to
several hotels. Vail Road is primarily used for local access south of Vail Plaza Hotel.
The roundabout is located approximately 1 15 feet west of the main entrance to Vail plaza
Hotel. Most of the site traffic currently uses the roundabout as does traffic oriented to/from
t-70.
Since Vail is a ski resort, winter traffic volumes have typically been higher than summer
volumes. Traffic counts were collected during the week of August 17, 1ggg, and these
counts were used to estimate winter numbers based on 1 990 data collected during the winter
and summer. The estimated existing winter traffic volumes for the study area are shown in
Figure 3 (the raw count data are shown in Appendix A). As indicated, the South Frontage
Road east of the roundabout carries approximately 300O vehicles during the winter pM peak
hour. The volumes at the two accesses were calculated by estimating rrip generation for the
existing buildings.

The total peak hour traffic volumes were used as the basis for subsequent LOS flevels of
service) computations, the results of which are summarized in Figure 3 (worksheets are shown
in Appendix C) as is the intersection lane geometrics. Level of service is a qualitative measure
which describes traffic operations. A letter designation ranging from A to F. is used as the
measure. A LOS A is indicative of excellent t;'affic operations with very little delay and no
congestion. while a Los F represents extreme delay and significant congestion.
As shown in Figure 4 the left turn onto the South Frontage Road from the main site access
currently operates at a LOS F during the PM peak hour. The left turn into the site from the
South Frontage Road currently operates at a LOS C during the PM peak hour. All other
movements operate at a LOS B or better during the PM peak hour.
The minor movements to/from the second access along Vail Road currently operate at a LOS
B or better during the PM peak hour. The roundabout currently operates at an overall LOS A.

PROJECTED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
Trip Generation and Design Hourly Volumes
Trip generation equations. as documented in Trip Generation, Institute of Transportation
Engineers (lTE). Sixth Edition, 1997 were used to estimate the vehicle-trips generated by the
existing and proposed development. lt was assumed that 50 percent of the traffic to/from the
restaurant, lounge, and specialty retail comes from outside while the other 5O percent is
internal (as such, the trip generation associated with these uses was reduced 50 percent).
Table 1 summarizes the trip generation results with existing conditions.
Table 1
Existing Trip Generation Estimates
As shown in Table 1, the site currently generates approximately 1050 trips per day. The AMand PM peak hour trip generation is estimated to be approximately 75 and 90 trips,
respectively.
Table 2 summarizes the trip generation results for the proposed development.
As shown, the proposed development is estimated to generate approximately 31OO trips perday' The AM and PM peak hour trip generation is estimated to be approximately 175 and 260trips respectively. App;oximately three times as many trips are projected for the proposed
development as compared to the existing uses on the site.

Proposed Trip Generation Estimates
B.Trip Distribution
The trip distribution estimates used in this analysis are shown in Figure 4. These percentages
are based upon the existing traffic data previously presented (Figure 3). As shown,
approximately 70 percent of the total site traffic is expected to be oriented to and from the
west through the roundabout. Site generated traffic was assigned to the adjacent roadway
network per these distribution patterns and are shown in Fiqure 5.
C. Year 2075 Projected Traffic Volumes
Background Traffic
Analysis of traff ic impacts f or a year 20 1 5 scenario requires projecting background traff ic
volumes. The projected background traffic was a result of exponentially increasing the
volumes by two percent per year. Year 2015 background traffic volumes and operational
conditions are shown in Fiqure 6.
I Otat I rarrtc
The total year 201 5 traffic volumes are shown in Figure 7. These volumes were determined
by first removing existing site traffic then adding the site generated traffic to the year 2015
background traffic volumes. As shown, the Frontage Road is projected to carry approximately
4600 vehicles during the PM peak hour in 20 1 5. Trips attributable to the proposed Vail plaza
Hotel would comprise approximately 6 percent of the total.

ilt.YEAR 2015 TRAFFIC OPERATIONS
A. Background Traffic
The peak hour traffic volumes shown in Figure 6 were used as the basis for subsequent leveis
of service computations, and the results are also summarized in Figure 6 (worksheets are
shown in Appendix C). The roundabout will operate at an overall LOS D. However, the only
movements that are lower than LOS B would be the south approach and right lane east
approach. These movements are projected to operate at LOS C and F respectively. The LOS
F from the east movement is a result of the high amount of volume turning to the north toward
l-70 and the Nonh Frontaoe Road.
B. Total Traffic
The total peak hour traffic volumes shown in Figure 7 were used as the basis for subsequent
levels of service cbmputations, and the results are also summarized in Figure 7 (worksheets
are shown in Appendix D). All movements on the roundabout will operate at the same LOS
as the background traffic showed previously with the exception of the south approach which
will operate at a LOS D. The left turning movement into the site (at the main entrance) will
operate at a LOS E and the left turning movement out of the site will operate at a LOS F.
Site generated traffic consists of approximately 1,2 percent of the total traffic entering the
roundabout. Of the right lane east approach the contribution from site generated traffic is
approximately 2 percent. No improvements were used on the roundabout for this analyses.
The main access onto the South Frontage Road included two roadway improvements in the
anarvses:
' Provide a "storage" area in the existing median for site outbound left turning vehicles
to safely pass eastbound traffic. A raised island already exists in the median from the
roundabout to the site access providing separation between eastbound and westboundtraffic. Minor modifications would need to be made to the island to provide for a
storage area. With this "safe harbor, " left turning vehicles could cross eastbound' traffic in one maneuver and wait in the storage area prior to merging into westbound' traffic. With the addition of the storage area the left turn movements out of the site
would still remain at a LOS F, however. the delay time for this movement is imoroved
significantly (more than 25%).
' Construct a right turn deceleration lane into the site for eastbound traffic. This lane is
needed to remove right turns f rom thru traff ic lanes. This is o{ imponance here
because vehicles coming out of the roundabout do not have sufficient reaction time in
the '1 1 5 foot distance to slow or stop for a right turning vehicle.
12
Limiting movements to right in/right out or three-quarter movement was considered for the
site's main access. This would require that vehicles exiting the site desiring to use the Vail
Road intersection with l-70 (which is most of the site traffic) make a U-turn somewhere along
the South Frontage Road. However. there is not a safe place for vehicles to make a U-turn
within a reasonable distance. Therefore, it is recommended to improve the main access so as
to accommodate full movement as safely as possible which includes a center "harbor" area
and a right turn deceleration lane.
The second access onto the site from the South Frontage Road will be used for deliveries. Due
to space limitations on site, trucks will need to back up onto the site from the Frontage Road.
This should be done from a separate lane along the south side of the road. The existing right
turn lane east of the site should be extended west to the site's deiivery access. The design
of the lane and driveway should accommodate backing trucks to allow no interference with
eastbound though traffic. Physical or barrier separation should be incorporated into the design.
13
lv.CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The following highlight the significant findings and recommendations as a result of this traffic
ana lysis:
' The total projected trips consist of subtracting the existing 1Q42 trips from the
proposed 3O82 site generated trips.
' Two roadway improvements will be necessary at the main access onto the Frontage
Road. The f irst includes modif ication to the center median to provide a storage area
for vehicles turning left out of the site. This will allow for a two-step left turn with less
delay. The second is an exclusive right turn lane into the site for eastbound traffic.
This exclusive right turn lane will remove turning traffic from the though traffic ianes
thereby improving safety characteristics.
' The roundabout will not be adversely affected by the proposed site traffic. The site
traffic will consist of approximately one percent of the total traffic in the roundabout
in year 2015.
' The auxiliary lane east of the site for right turning vehicles needs to be extended west
to the second access. This lane will be used for delivery trucks backing into the site.
This lane and the delivery driveway in which it will serve should be designed to allow
backing activity without impacting the eastbound through traffic. Physical separation
should be considered between the through lane and the auxiliary lane where backing
would be taking place.

Re: Vail Plaza Hotel
Mr. kng:
I had recently reviewed your report datcd Septemb a 27, 1999 with the town engineer. In reviewing tfie
report and the associated access points, the engineer would like us to address a few additional items.
Specifically, the town engineu would like us to address:
l. The possibility of raffic backing up to the roundabout Aom 0re south cntry on Vail Road without a
dcdicatcd left nrn lane.
2. The safety and/or risks associated with the hotel exit located eight fee! (eighteerr feet from the
ceaterline of the gateway drive), soutl of the Vail Gateway access on vail Road.3. The safety and/or risks associated with the hotel loading and delivery enry only access as indicated in
Option A and it's proximity to the rormdabout on the South Frontage Road. It is our intention that 55'
semi-trailers, and 45' passenger coaches use the drive (entry) lane for backing prior to departing
through the east exit. Our feeling is that passenger coaches only frequent the hotel during the ..off
season" or low raffic periods due to the fact that the hotel operates as a factional fee condominiumhalf the year imd does not have the remaining occupancy to be able to cater to large groups.
Additionally, othet than the initial equipment and fumishings move-in period, we foresee no semi-
trailer u'affic although it has becn determined that we need to provide for such vehicles. It is ogr
objective to have all other vehictes including 35' staight-body trucks and 50' articulated (beer
delivery) be able to hrn right out of the structure with minimal mimeuvers. It is the town enginier's
concem that vehicle atering the drive will rear-end vehicles using the drive lane for a backing
movement.
4. The safety and/or risks associated with the hotel loading and delivery exit only access ils indicated rn
Option A and it's proximity to the roundabout on the South Frontage Road- Specifically, the town
engineer would likc some conrment on the feasibility and safety of both autos and the larger scrvice
type vehicles tuming left on the fronage road. We have p,reliminarily indicated medians for protection
of the center nrming lane in this option.
Additionally, the town engmeer had asked us to explorc additional options for a combination inlout 90-
dcgree access. Enclosed is Option B explonng that option. Please just generally discuss any positive or
negative inpacts associated wrth this scheane including safety concems associated with its proximity to the
roundabout.

Memorandum
To: George Ruther, Senior Special Projects Planner
From: Greg Hall, Director of Public Worla and Transportation
Date: December 9, I 999
Subject: Vail Plaza Hotel - Review of the November 23, 1999 Plans
I have completed my review of the Vail Plaza Hotel and have the following comments and concems. Some
of thcse arc truly comments, which should be corrected as the project progresses through the development
process, and others are concems or conditions, which shall be takcn care ofat the appropriate times in the
process.
Reuuircd Plan Correcfions
o
D
The scale stated on the site illusffative plan is inconect, pleasc label correctly.
Sheet-Level Nlinus Two, ihe elevation of the ramp from above proceeding to the 6
lowest level is nor 145' as indicated.
Provide the slope (%) of the perking area in the lowest valet area and the location
chanse from 128' to 130'.o Please shorv ali access points and doorwavs to elevators and hallways. Specifically, access to the
elevators in the Level Minus Two, this may cause valet spaces to be eliminated. Access to the srnall
elevator lobby from the loading berth, and access from the loading benh to the freight elevators. The
exact location of the garage door into the Phase III pruking structue. Show the staging area in front of
the fieight elevator and how this may impact access to Phasc III and the safety of those using the
elevator. Show the location of the trash pickup.
o The eastside curb alignment of Vail Road is shown per the survey. However, there appears to be one
shot out of line, this causes ajog right at the hotel entry, which doesn't exist. The curb moves one foot
at this location.
D The widths of Vail Road, dre South Frontage Road and F;ist lvleadow Drive along with the exact
locations of the curbs of the roundabout and median islimds and opposite side of the street will need to
be shown accurately prior to first reading before the Town Council.
Issues for Discussion.
There has been sip-ificant discussion with regards to whethe r a left-tum lane is required on Vaii Road. The
hotei krcation as it is presently designed would not have to move if thc desire for a left+um is therc. A
pedestrian easement would be required to push the rvalk east to make room for the additional 12' lane.
Vinually all of the landscaping on thc cast side of the road would be lost. A space of 3' to 1 i' wide as you
go nonh would exist on the south building and the space would bc 8' to 15' along the norrh buiiding.
The need for a left+um lane was specifically reviervcd and evaluated by the tralfis consulting i-rm oi
Felsbur*e, Holt & r.Illevig. In the Traffic Report prepared by the consuiting eng.ineer. the engineer has'
stated that based upon traific projections, vehicies "backing up" into the roundabout faffic rvouid not
occur.
A review of the rotindabout design rvith regards to Vaii Road traffic determined that at current voiumes,
there is a florv of 321 vehiclcs in rhe A.\I oerk hounvith a capacifv to take 150 1 vehicles and a ml,xirnurn
o/o grade at the
where the grades
queue of I vehicle, in the PIvl peak flow was 464 vehicles rvith a capacity to take 1423 r,ehicles and a
maximum queue of 2 vehicles.
The roundabout design allows for a 50% increase in peak fiows with the AM having a peak hour flow of
481 vehicles with capacity of I 172 vehicles with a maximum queue of 2 vehiclcs. The PVI peak flow
would be 735 vchicles with a capacity of 1055 vehicles and a maximum queue of 7 vehicles. This queue
does nor impact the entry into this sitc.
The Vail Plaza Hotel Traffic Report rtates the cunent northbound raffic volume ofVail Road is 695
vehicles. The edded trips to Vail Road will be approximately 57 trips in and 40 trips out, during the peak
PM period. They also analyzed that the trips were tuming in against 900 vehicles verses the 735 uips. As
estimated in the futruc roundabout calculations.
The second issue is that the loading bay requirements for the site were to accommodate the n-rming t
maneuvers ofa 30' sing.le axle truck, a 45' over the road coach and a 50-foot semi tractor trailer on-site,
and to additionally to allow a 65' semi tractor trailer to maneuver without impeding the flow of traffic on
the South Frontage Road. Ttre applicant has provided an access and rnaneuverability plan, which illustrates
that the maneuvering of the vehicles takes place panially off-site, in rhe right-of-way. However, no
backing nrotions occur across aDy sidewallc and the traffic flow on the South Frontage Road is not
impeded. Extending the proposed South Frontage Road median through this access point could solve rhe
question of the lefl tum out for the frontage road access. It would be desirable to at least provide a left rurn
pocket east bound somewhcre in thc frontage road to allow U-tums of passenger cars at a point that is
determined appropriate. This is most likely at Village Center Chute. The landscape mcdian would necd to
be extendcd thc cntire lcngh to ensure this takes place where determined.
This entire access plan on the frontage road will require a Colorado Department ofTransportation revised
access permit. The uansportation cngineers at CDOT have the authority to decide how the access functions.
Required Imorovements and Conditions
o The required improvements for this development are a 6' heated paver walkway from the east property
line of the SDD to the Gateway Building. In addition nny revisions to the curb will require new curb
and gutter and modilications or additions to the storm sewer system. The extension of Village-style
street lights is also required. Any necessary modifications to utilities, landscaping, irrigation systcms
and required retaining wails shail be the responsibility of the developer. The rvalkway wiil be
delineated in pavers across the driveways behind thc cross pans.
tr Frontage Road landscape medians to include curb and guner, concrcte rrnil pgygl 3p1s1s, any masonry
rock walls, plant matcrial, bedding mix to TOV ryecifications, and irrigation system and water
connections and sleeves.
Lnprovements to Vail Road include a heated 8' paver walkway from the Gateway Building property to
East Meadow Drive. All additional improvements to allow for this to take place as similarly as stated
above for the lrontage road are also the responsibility of the developer.
In addition, adding curb, gufter and a 5'concrete walk liom the east property line of the SSD to and
around the curb retum of Village Center Chute on the South Frontage Road. Any modifications to tie
drainagc system to accomplish this work iue considered the requirement of the curb. Work such as
retaining walls and utility modifications are the responsibility of the Town of Vail.
Detirils of the improvements from Vail Road to the west edge of thc Phase I building (Base lvlountain
Sports) along rvith the improvements of the bus stop along East lv{eadow Drive are as follows a heared
paver walkrvay attached to the strcet and bus stop along with zrll modifications to drainage, utilii.ies,

properry improvements impacted.
The orange street lights existing along the entte length of East Meadow Drive shall be cbanged to thc
Village-sryie street li_eht fixrure. This installarion shall be completed by the devcloper.
A hnal grading and drainage plan be prepared and all drainage sysrems carrying runoff from public
right of rvays require drarnage easements. The t-nni grading plen will have all grades to the tenth of a
ibot.
q A final landscape plan showing sight distances, snow storage areas, and all existing vegetarion
impacted.
tr The entire building will require a guttering sysrem , heat tape and piping to the srorm sewer.a That snow shedding is addressed lbr the entire building.o The pedestrian walks along Vail Road and the otber pedestrian mews are established as public
pedestrial easements.
o Complete civil-engineered plans are reviewed and approved by the Towu Engineer prior to submitting
plans for the building permir.
3 All one-way cross over lanes shall be 18' in width apd all two-way cross over lanes shall be 24' in
width. This affects approximalely four compact and seven valet spaces.o The two-way drive aisle at the pone-cochere is only 20' in width between the columns. The valct
spaces drawn are only 16' in length. If full-size valet spaces are e$ablished as required, the drive lane
width is fi,rther reduced down to 17'. To resolve the conflict the parking spaces need to be removed.tr The slopes of the heated and enclosed drive aisle ramps are allowed to be a maximum grade of 16%.
An engineered-stamped design of the drive aisle is required prior to final DRB approval.o The three Phase V parking spaces south of the hotel are not practical. To enter the frrst to requires the
driver to use the hotel porte-cochere as a roundabout. The one angled parking space, when drawn to
the proper dimensions (9'x I 9') reduces the &ive aisle to the structure by I '. This conflict could be
resolved by moving the parking ryace closer to the Phase V building. However, the proposed 4 foot
wide walk in this mew is then reduced to three feet in width wheu adjusted. The reduced width is roo
narrow next to the building. The parking space design must be revised.B The curb retums into and out of the site will need to be revised to allow proper turning and
maneuvering.
D The south return onto the site shali have a lS'radius.o The north rcturn out of the sitc shali have an 8'radius.o The South Frontage Road exit shall be widened to accommodate the 65'semi tractor trailer. This
requires an adjustrnent to both sides of the drive aisle and to the landscape isliurdo The brick paver sidervalk along Vail Road shall be 8' in widrh.

MR. staufer: I an fauiliar with that

Basically Leo Idas doing the Gateway building' I was
concerned. He first sald he was only going to build
condoniniuns there- I vas concerned -- but not sell

your knor^rledge, then, Mr. Palmer carrled through on this
agreenent when he sold the units and the onners were
aware that your vier,r at sone point in tine could be

MR. Staufer: I an not -- I don,t knov if
they were made aware of it but I assumed that Mr. Palner
nost probably said, yeah, VaiI Village fnn has sone
developnent rights here, but what they are, I don,t know,
but they were in file here at the Town since L976.
MR. SCHOFIELD: Thank you.

Re: VaiL Plaza Hotel Prooosal-
Dear Sirs and Madams :
It has recently come to my attention that three of the members of the towncouncilrs votes srith respect to the above project should not. be counted forthe following reasons.
TOWN CHARTER SECTTON 3.7
Section 3.7 of the Town Charter specifically prohibits council members from
having any direct or indirect financiat inLerest in any contract wj.th the
EOVtn.
Greg Moffet's company Tiga Advertising Inc. enLered into A contract with the
town of Vail on May 19, 1995. The conLract was renewed on March 15, 1999 and
runs until May 30, 2004. On Nov. 1, 1999 the contract was assigned to TigaVai1, LLC.
Accordj-ng to a report based on Colorado State records, Tiga Advertisi.ng has
I of3 3/7/00 8: l5 AM
Vai rPlaza Hotel
;f
Greg Moffet as president and Christine Moffet as vice president. A copy ofthat informatlon j-s attached. Tiga Vail, LLC shor^rs Timothy Moffet as adirector. A copy is attached. I have been told that Timothy Moffet is GregMoffet's brolher.
Unless valid consideraLion was paid to creg Moffet for his or his companieslnlerest in the contract with the Town of Vai1, the transfer is a sham
designed to get around the town charter prohibition. Further the purported
assignment was not signed by Tiqa Vail, LLC and therefor has not come into
af fa..f lA ...tn\r ^f fha l ot-t-a'.c :nnrnrrih^ r r^^ ir^- ^s ^- -^^i-..9 L'rE _LLrecL (J! arr o.Dbrg nenL 1Sattached. However the actual assignment was never prepared or signedaccording to the town records provided to me.) That leaves Tiga AdvertisingInc as the contracting party with the town of Vail.
Even if the assignment was valid, Greg MoffeL is benefiting, at leastindirectly, since he is still running the advertising company. A copy of TigaAdvertising's web site is attached which shows greg@busad.com as the emailaddress. An email sent to that address was answered by creg Moffet. A copy ofthe email is attached. Further the web site advertises the availability ofadvertising on the town of Vail buses. If Greg Moffet was not involved in thecontract with the town of VaiL, why would he be offering advertising for the
cown.
TOWN CHARTER SECTION 4.11
Section 4.11 of the town chart,er prohibit.s a member of the council fromvoting on matters in which 1. He has a substantial personal or financiallnterest, 2. Has other than the corunon public interest, or 3. On any question
concerning his own conduct.
Greg Moffett: He directly or indirectly has a contract with the town of VaiI
under which he makes money from riders on the town buses. The more riders,the more money. Therefore he has a direct interest in packing Vail with as
many tourists as possible which would be accomplished by approvinq the VaiIPlaza Hotel in vioLation of the masLer plan. More rooms, more guests, morebus riders, more money for Greg Moffet. or hi.s related entit.ies. Further VailResorts 1s a cl-ient of creg Moffet's and they have reportedly expressed an
'i nf crpql- i n hrrrri n.r l.h6 nr^nar|. vyrvI,Lr uj.
Rod Slifer: He has a direct financial sLake in the decj.sion by reason of thefact that he was the broker on the sale of unit 3 in the Vail cateway. Thatsale had a penal-ty cl.ause in it, if the master pfan was violated. As such RodSlj-fer or his related entities will have to refund money on the commission
earned on the sa1e. Further Rod Slifer's firm is in some tl4)e of partnership
or relationship to vail- Associates and/or Vail Resorts. Vaj.l Resorts hasreportedly expressed an interesL in buying Lhe properry. LasLIy Rod Slifer'sfirm represents unj.t 4 in the Vail cateway which is listed for sale. Theviolatj-on of the master plan will have a direct effect on the value of unit 4
Mayor Kurz: Reportedly works for Vail Resorts or a related entity. VaiLResorts has reportedly expressed an j.nteresL in buying the property.
Besides the substantial financial interest that two of the council members
above have in violating the master plan t.o approve the Vail plaza Hotel , allthree have an inLerest other than the common public interest, by reason oftheir rel ationship t.o Vaif Resorts,
Based on the foregoing iL is respecLfully requesLed thaL Lhe vote be
recounted wilhout. the votes of Greg Moffet, Rod Slifer, or Mayor Kurz being
cons i dered .

Dear Sirs and Madams
f was informed that the Vail P1aza Hotel Proposal was taken off of tonights
agenda and reset to some time in Apri1.
I am here now and could attend tonights meeting. this has happened to me
before- When I am in town, the meetings get postponed.
Under the circumst.ances of being an adjacent land owner, I would like toattend the meeting. Therefore, I would appreciate you contacting me to set upa convenient date, when I could attend so as to provide me wit.h due process
in a situation where violat.ion of t,he master plan will cause my wife andmyself mil-Iions of dollars in loss of value to our condo. This effects othersin the adjacent buildings also.
Please put a copy of this email into the fiLe for this project.
