I have adjusted the permit fees by removing the use-tax charges. New balance due is
$947,279.98 per Permits Plus.

All-
We have thoroughly reviewed the Town's records and I have determined that Strata is not
obligated to pay the Construction and Building Materials Use Tax. They are exempt from any use
tax payment by the terms of the Town's adopted resolutions and ordinances.
Without going into the specific details, my determination is based upon our review of the
following Town records:
• Permits Plus Permit Tracking Software
• PECOS-0028 and 0030 Development Application Files
• Resolution No. 6, Series of 2010
• Ordinance No. 37, Series of 2008
• Written Correspondence
• Email Correspondence
• Meeting Minutes, and
• Town of Vail Zoning Regulations
I am confident of my decision and I will gladly share my conclusions if you have an extra 30 minutes
to spare. Again, no payment of use tax is required.
Thanks,
