Dear Mr. Foss,
This
letter is to inform you that your request for a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 12-7H-4, Permitted and Conditional Uses, Second Floor and Above, Vail Town Code, to allow
for a business office (real estate office) located at 714 West Lionshead Circle (Vail Marriott Mountain Resort and Spa)/Lot 1, West Day Subdivision, was approved by Vail Planning and
Environmental Commission (PEC) on November 26, 2007 (Vote 5-0-1, Viele recused) with the following conditions:
This conditional use permit, for a temporary business office (real estate
office), shall lapse and become void 3 years from the date of approval or at the time of the Temporary Certificate of Occupancy issuance for the Ritz-Carlton; currently under construction
at 728 West Lionshead Circle, whichever occurs first. Within 30 days from the ceasing date, the applicant shall complete the restoration, of the two accommodation units (rooms 605 &
607), to their original form.
The applicant shall obtain a separate sign permit, from the Community Development Department, for any and all proposed signs associated with the proposed
business office (real estate office).
The applicant shall submit the employee generation and mitigation fee, in the amount of $89,184.14, prior to issuance of a building permit.
The
Vail Town Council, at the December 4, 2007 hearing, appealed or ‘called up’ the conditional use permit request. The appeal was heard by Vail Town Council on January 8, 2008 and the
PEC approval was upheld (Vote 3-2-1, Newbury and Foley opposed, Gordon recused) with the following additional conditions:
The applicant shall submit a fee to compensate the Town for
sales tax revenue lost, by the conversion of 2 accommodation units to a real estate office, in the amount of $3,300.00 a year. Based on the PEC condition to allow the temporary real
estate office for a maximum of 3 years, the total fee for 3 years, in the amount of $9, 900.00, shall be paid prior to issuance of a building permit.
To maintain privacy to guests staying
in neighboring rooms, the applicant shall submit a plan for a screening between rooms 603 and 605 at Vail Marriott Mountain Resort and Spa, prior to issuance of a building permit. The
installation of the screening shall be complete prior to final inspections for Certificate of Occupancy.
Please continue to work with Staff to comply with the conditions of approval.
