Vail Gateway Plaza parking
It is my understanding that commercial unit C-11, Vail Gateway Plaza was previously used as a professional office as
defined by Chapter 12-2, Definitions, Vail Town Code. lt is my understanding that commercial unit C-11, Vail Gateway
Plaza is proposed to be used as a professional office as defined by Chapter 12-2, Definitions, Vail Town Code. A change
of use from one professional office to a another professional office results is no change to the parking requirements for
Vail Gateway Plaza building.
lf there is a proposal to change the use of unit C-11, Vail Gateway Plaza to a land use that requires more parking spaces
than a professional office, there is surplus parking available at the Vail Gateway Plaza that could be utilized to
accommodate such a change:
On August 13, 2011 the Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) approved a conditional use permit (CUP) to allow
39 parking spaces in the 93 space Vail Gateway Plaza garage to become a for-lease parking club.
On Aprif 12,2OO4 the PEC approved amendments to the parking club CUP to allow the 39 for-lease parking spaces to be
converted to 13 for-sale spaces, and the remaining 26 parking spaces would be allocated to specific tenants within the
building, Theallocationofspecificparkingspacestoaspecifictenantwasattheapplicant'srequest,andnota
requirement of the Vail Town Code. Chapter 12-1Q Off Street Parking and Loading, Vail Town Code establishes the
minimum number of parking spaces for an entire building and does not require individual parking spaces to be allocated
tospecifictenants. In2004,theapplicantalsorequestedthat4existingparkingspacesbeconvertedtoski
lockers/storage.
The applicant submitted an analysis demonstrating that if the 13 space for-sale parking club and the 4 parking space
conversion to storage were approved, there would be a surplus of parking at the Vail Gateway Plaza building based upon
the existing and potentialcommercial uses (all office and all restaurant) in the building. The 2004 CUP amendment
allocated the individual parking spaces in the Vail Gateway Plaza garage on a commercial, residential, parking club, and
storage use basis. The 2004 CUP amendment allocated a total of 63 parking spaces to the commercial tenants in the Vail
Gateway Plaza building. 47 of the 53 parking spaces were allocated on an individual unit by unit basis, and 16 of the 53
spaces were allocated to "visitot" for the commercial tenants, The 2004 CUP amendment allocated 4 individual parking
spaces to commercial unit C-11. The required number of parking spaces for unit C-11 with a professional office use is
3.16 parking spaces (2.7 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. net floor area). The following is a summary of the 2004 allocations of
the Vail Gateway Plaza parking garage:

Town Staff believes that the following Town of Vail planning documents are relevant to the
review of this proposal:
TITLE 12: ZONING REGULATIONS
Chapter 12-16: Conditional Use Permits
12-1G1: Purpose; Limitations: ln order to provide the flexibility necessary to
achieve the objectives of this title, specified uses are permitted in certain dr.shbfs
subject to the granting of a conditional use permit. Because of their unusual or
special characfensfics, conditional uses require review so thatthey may be located
properly with respect fo the purposes of this title and with respect to their effects on
sunounding propefties. The review process prescibed in this chapteris intended to
assure compatibility and harmonious development between conditional uses and
surrounding propefties in the Town at la4ge. Uses lsfed as conditional uses in the
vaious districts may be pennifted subjectto such conditions and limitations as the
Town may prescnbe to r:nsure thatthe location and operation of the conditional uses
will be in accordance with the development objectives of the Town and will not be
detrimental to other uses or properties. Where conditions cannot be devised, to
achieve these objectives, applications for conditional use permits shall be denied.

VIII. CRITERIA AND FINDINGS
The review criteria and factors for consideration for a request of a conditional use permit
are established in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 12-16, Vail Town Code.
A. Consideration of Factors Reqarding the Conditional Use Permit:
I . Relationship and impact of the use on the development objectives of the' Town.
The applicant is proposing amendments to a private parking club which is
allowed as a conditional use in Special Development Distdct #21 . In addition to
the Vail Gateway Building, a parking club exists at Golden Peak and another
parking club is being proposed at the P3&J site.
The existing Vail Gateway pa*ing club consists of 39 parking spaces that are
surplus to the Vail Gateway Building's current uses (i.e. commercial, residential,
and office). Pursuant to Chapter 12-10, Off-Street Parking and Loading, Vail
Town Code, different land uses are required to provide parking at differing rates.
For example, within the Vail Gateway Building residential uses are required 1.4
spaces per dwelling unit, office uses are required 2.7 spaces per 1,000 square
feet of net floor area, retail uses are required 2.3 spaces per 1,000 square feet
of net floor area, and restaurant uses are required 1.0 space per 250 square
feet of seating area.
As stated, the existing 39 space parking club consists of parking surplus to the
current Vail Gateway Building uses. Should the use mix within the Vail Gateway
Building change, the parking requirements may also change. This may create
additional surplus parking within the building or it may create a shortage and
existing parking club spaces will need to be removed from the club and
dedicated to other uses. Should the parking club spaces be sold/transferred
separately, as proposed, it will be much more difficult to designate club parking
spaces to future uses within the building in comparison to the current leased
parking club ownership structure. To address this concern the applicant has
prepared a parking analysis to identify the "highest demand" parking
requirements for the building (i.e. entirely restaurant and/or office uses). Based
upon this analysis, the applicant is proposing to amend the parking club
conditional usepermittoallowatotal of l3parkingspaces. Thisrequesttolimit
the parking club to 13 spaces will ensure that the sale/transfer of the parking
club spaces will not create future parking shortages for other potential uses
within the building.
Staff believes this request conforms to the following applicable Vail Land Use
Plan objective:
2.8 Day skiers need for parking and access should be
accommodated through creative so/ufbns such as.'
a) lncreased busing from out of town.
b) Expanded points of access to the mountain by adding
additional base portals.
c) Continuing to provide temporary surface parking.
d) Addition of structured parking.
Additionally, Staff believes this request conforms to the following applicable Vail
Village Master Plan goal and objective:
Goal#5
lncrease and imprcve the capacity, efficiency, and aesthetics of the
transportation and circulation system throughout the Village.
5.1 Objective: Meet parking demands with public and private
parking facilities.
5.1.3 Policy: Seek locations for additional structured public
and private parking.
Additionally, Staff believes this request conforms to the following applicable Vail
Transportation Master Plan goal:
Retain the private parking supply as an important and needed
element.
By continuing to provide surplus parking, Staff believgs the proposed private
parking club amendments will continue the positive impacts of the existing
parking club on the above-mentioned criteria.
4.
The effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population,
transportation facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities,
and other public facilities needs.
Staff does not believe the proposed conditional use permit amendments will
have a significant negative impact on the above listed criteria, in comparison to
existing conditions. By continuing to provide surplus parking, Staff believes the
proposed private parking club amendments will continue the positive impacts of
the existing parking club on the above-mentioned criteria.
Effect upon traffic with particular reference to congestion, automotive
and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the street and parklng areas.
Staff does not believe the proposed conditional use permit amendments will
have a significant negative impact on the above listed criteria, in comparison to
existing conditions. By continuing to provide surplus parking, Staff believes the
proposed private parking club amendments will continue the positive impacts of
the existing parking club on the above-mentioned criteria.
Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be
located, including the scale and bulk of the proposed use, in relation to
surrounding uses.
Staff does not believe the proposed conditional use permit amendments will
have a significant negative impact on the above listed criteria, in comparison to
existing conditions.
The Planninq and Environmental Commission shall make the following findinqs
before granting a conditional use permit:
1. That the proposed location of the use is in accordance with the purposes of
the conditional use permit section of the zoning code and the purposes of
the Outdoor Recreation zone district.
2. That the proposed location of the use and the conditions under which it will
be operated or maintained will not be detrimentalto the public health, safety,
or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the
vicinity.3. That the proposed use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of
the conditional use permit section of the zoning code.
B.
tx.STAFF RECOMMENDATION

for a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 12-7E4, Conditional Uses, Vail Town
Code, for amendments to the existing private club (i.e. parking club) conditional use permit,

conditional use permit section of the zoning code.
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this request, staff
recommends the following condition of approval:

receiving Town of Vail approval forthe associated amendments to the Vail Gateway
Plaza Condominiums olat.

Mr. Bill Gibson
Town Of Vail

R3: Vail Gateway Plaza Condominiums
Proposed Condominium Map Amendment
Dear Bill:
HAND DELTVERED
This letter serves as the written statement required by our Condifional Use Permit and SDD
Minor Amendment applications. Vail Gateway Plaza Condominium Association Inc. and Vail
Gateway, LLC as the owners of condominium rmit C-15, are requesting an amendment to the Vail
Gateway Plaza Condominium Plat in order to accomplish three (3) objectives. The first is to
allow for the expansion of commercial units C-2 & C-3 by approximately 100 square feet each.
The second is to deqignate six (6) private storage closets for residential use. The third objective is
to subdivide +re1+15-$A of the parking spaces previously approved for a "parking club" into
separate condominium units, to allow for the indMdual sale of these spaces to the general public.
As the third objective is perhaps the most significant change to the condominium map, I have
included with this letter, an analysis of the parking requirements of the Town of Vail and how
they relate to the existing and potential future uses of the Vail Gateway Building. This analysis is
meant to demonshate that the proposed subdivision of parking spaces for individual sale will not
adversely affect the existing, or future uses of the building. The analysis compares the parking
requirements of the commercial portions of the building under the existing office use, to those of
a higher parking intensity use, such as a restaurant. The analysis appeais to show that the
building has adequate parking to accommodate even the highest intensity uses in the rmlikely
event that the entire commeroial portion of the building were to be converted to into a restaurant
or restaurants. Please keep in mind that the square footage of commercial units C-2 & C-3 on the
analysis reflects the proposed expansion area.
If you have any questions, or require clarification on any of these proposed changes, please
contact me at (970) 47 6-1464. Thank you.

BACKGROUND AND HISTORY OF THE GATEWAY
The Vail Gateway was originally the site of the Amoco station, previously zoned
Heavy Servicg 1HS). In 1988, an application was received to rezone the propeny
lrom HS to cc1 and approve a special Developmenl District to facilitale the
development of a mixed-use project which included retail, restaurant,
commercial, office, and residential uses. Special Development District No.21
(Vail Gateway) was approved by Ordinance No. 9 in 1988. The expressed
PlrPose ol adopting SDD #21 was to allow for the rezoning of the property from
HS to CC1. CCI zoning and SDD #2i were adopted to allow for a mix of uses
on the property and to allow the development to exceed building height, as
otherwise prescribed in the cc1 zone district. Public benefits realized through
the adoption of Ordinance No. 9 include, among other things, a pedestrian
walkway on the norlh and west sides of the property, and substantial landscape
improvements to the Vail Road and South Frontage Road intersection. The
following briefly outlines the Vail Gateway's development history:
January_3-l_9gg - An application is submitted to the Town of Vail Community
Development Department on behalf of Mr. Leo Palmer proposing tha
establishmenl of SDD #21 . The.eslablishment of the District would.reouire a
rezoning of the property from HS (gas station) to CC1
Februarv 22. 1988 - The Planning & Environmental Commission held a public
hearing lo discuss lhe SDD proposal and the rezoning. In lheir memorandum to
lhe Commission staff expressed a concern with the proposed bulk and mass of
the building and its effects on views to Vail Mountain.
The staff further expresses to the Commission that according to the initial work
done by Eldon Beck on building heights for the gas station, "The Eldon Beck
study does show that building heights for the development of this parcel of land
should reach one to two stories." The applicant was requesting a maximum
building height of 62 ieet.
March 9, 1988 - Jeif Winston, the Town's Urban Design Consultant, addresses
the Commission. In his presentation, Jeff offered a brief history on the
development of the view corridor for the Vail Village Inn area.
The following is the stall recommendalion on the request to establish SDD #21:
Staff generally suppotts the mixed use concept proposed in this
redevelopment plan and'the concept of the rezoning to CCI . Although it
may be considered spot zoning, we feel that the uses are compatible with
the adjacent Vail Village lnn Special development District and are
appropriate for this location within the community. However, we are not
supportive of the uses proposed without the left turn lane and elimination
of the surtace parking as well as adequate parking provisions. We feel
that the general concept of development proposed by the appticant is
appropriate and believe that there is an opportunity here to provide an
exciting and aesthetically pleasing entrance into Vail.
The Community Development Department staff had, howevbr, major concerns
with the project as proposed. Staff felt lhe issues of bulk and mass, height,
setbacks, view corridor encroachment and parking were all important issues lhat
must be addressed. The staff recommendation for this project was for the
Planning commission to table and allow lhe slalf and the applicant to work
together to try to resolve some of these issues. Staff believed that with adequate
resolution ol the aforementioned issues, staff could support this project.
However, as presented, staff believed there were major issues that needed to be
addressed and could not support this project as presented. Although many of
the uses of the Heavy service District would certainly not be acceptabte in inis
location, statf felt that lhe existing seruice station was appropriate to this location.
. Staff believed that SDD #21 as proposed, presented impacts thal were nor
acceptable. lf the applicant wished to move forward wilh this project as
proposed, staff recommendation was for denial.
The commissioners voted 3-4 against a recommendation of approval to the
Town Council. The dissenting votes were Hopkins, Schultz,'Donovan and
Osterfoss.
tv.
Aoril 5, 1988 - The Vail rown council approved ordinance No. 9, series of
1.988, An Ordinance Rezoning Lot N And A portion Of Lot O, Btock SD, Vaitvillage First Filing From Heavy seruice District To commercia! core I An
Establishing special Development District No.2l . In part, the ordinance allowed
a maximum height of 54 feet for the Vail Gateway plaza building and the further
encroachmenl of a building into the view of Vail Mountain from the four-wav
inlersection.
*ulv ?9. 1996_- An application is submitted to the Town of Vail Communny
Development Department, on behalf of Charles R. Lipcon, proposing a major
amendmenl to sDD #21. The purpose of the amendmenl is to enclose an
existing deck (460 sq. ft.) on the east side of the upper level ol condominium
Unit No.5.
altoust 26, 1996 - The Planning & Environmental commission held a public
hearing to evaluate the major amendment request.
The Building Height Plan shows the Gateway Building at 5 stories, and indicates
that it does not conform 1o the plan (story height at 9 feet). The elevalion of the
existing ridge was 54 feet above grade along the south elevation. The applicant
wished to extend this ridge line approximately 29 feet to the east. This raised the
height of .the building in the notch area. staff believed thal the additionalheight
was not detrimental given the mass, bulk and height ol the entire building.
Following discussion of the request, the Planning & Environmental commission
voted unanimously (7-0) 10 recommend approval oI the major amendment
request to the Vail Town Council.
october 1. 1996-The Vail rown council adopted ordinance No. 17, series of
1996, An Ordinance Providing For The Major Amendment Of Speciat
Development District No. Al , Vail Gateway; Amending An Approved
Development Plan For special Development District No. 21 ti Accordaice with
Qhapter 18.40 Of The Vail Municipar! Code. In adopting the ordinance, the
Gouncil found, in part, that it:
...Meets the Design Standards as sel forth in Section 1g.40 of the
Municipal Code... and that the major SDD amendment request is in
compliance with the goals and objectives of the Vail Comprehensive plan,
as well as the purpose section of the SDD Overlay Zone District.
ZONING ANALYSIS
Please refer to the attached analysis.
RE
The applicant is requesting a rezoning the Vaii Gateway, located at 12 Vail Road,
a portion of Lots O and N, Block 5D, Vail Village 1'r Filing, from Commercial Core
1 (cc1) to commercial service center (csc). The property, should the rezonrng
be approved, would then be zoned SDD #21 with an underlying zoning of CSC-.
V.
The criteria for a rezoning are described in Chapter 12-3-7 of the Town Code and
discussed in detail below:
A. ls the existing zoning suitable with the existing land use on the site
and adjacent land uses?
The Gateway is currently zoned SDD #21 , with an underlying zoning of
CCl . Ordinance No. 9, Series of 1988, approved the spetial
development dislrict, rezoning lhe property from Heavy Service (HS) lo
CC1 , and setting forth the development standards for the property. With
the underlying zoning of CC1, the uses of the property are limited by
horizontal zoning. The only deviation from the current underlying zoning
is from the height requirement.
The purpose of the CC1 zone districl is:
The Commercial Core 1 District is intended to provide sites and to
maintain the unique character of the Vail Village commercial area,, with its mixture of lodges and commercial establishments in a
predominantly pedestrian environment. The Commercial Core 1
District is intended to ensure adequate lighit, air, open space, and
other amenities appropriate to the permitted types of buildings and
uses. The District regulations in accordance with the Vail Village
Urban Design Guide Plan and Design Considerations prescribe
site development standards that are intended to ensure the
maintenance and preservation of the tightly clustered
arrangements of buildings fronting on pedestrianways and public
greenways, and to ensure continuation of the building scale and
architectural qualities that distinguish the Village.
The applicant has requested a rezoning of the underlying zoning from
CC1 to CSC. The deviations from the CSC zone district include: GRFA,
setbacks, landscape area, and building height. The purpose of the CSC
zone district is:
The Commercial Seruice Center District is intended to provide
sites for general shopping and commercial facilities seruing the
Town, together with limited multipleiamily dwelling and lodge
uses as may be appropriate without intertering with the basic
commercial functions of the District. The Commercial Service
Center District is intended to ensure adequate tight, air, open
space, and other amenities appropriate to permifted types of
buildings and uses, and to maintain a convenient shopping center
environment for permitted commercial uses.
There are two properties currently zoned CSC: Crossroads and the
Weststar Bank Building (SDD #23 with underlying zoning of CSC). CSC
differs from CCI primarily in that il does not vary the allowable and
conditional uses in a building by story. In addition, CSC has different
development standards than CC1.
B.
staff believes that the csc zone district is compatible with the existing
and proposed uses on the sile and with adjacent land uses. Adjacentpropefiies include the proposed Vail Plaza Hotel East (S'peciat
Development District with underlying zoning of public Accommodition),
the proposed Vail Plaza Hotel west (special Development District with
underlying zoning of Public Accommodation), and the Alpine Standard
Stalion (Heavy Service).
CSC allows for similar uses to the CC1 zone district, bul does not have
the same horizontal zoning requirements. The CSC zone dislrict has
been attached for reference. staff does not believe that the uses allowed
by CSC will have any detrimental effects on adjacent uses. However, lhe
development standards prescribed by the CSC zone district lend to be
more stringent that those of CC1. As a result, the deviations reouired
from the underlying zoning will be greater. The deviations are discussed
more fully in Section Vl of this memorandum
Stalf believes that due to its distance from the Village Core, CC1 is not
appropriate for this site. With the designation of "Mixed Use" in the Vail
Village Masler Plan, staff believes that CSC is more appropriate for the
Vail Gateway.
ls the amendment presenting a convenient workable relationship
wilh land uses consistent with municipal objectives?
Staff believes that the change irom CC1 to CSC presents a convenient
workable relationship consistent with municipal objectives. The change in
zoning allows for similar uses to what is allowed with CC1, but,allows
greater flexibility in the location of these uses. In addition, the allowable
density of the property is reduced from 13 units to 9 units, the allowable
GRFA is reduced from 80% to 40"/,, site coverage is reduced from 80% to
75olo, landscape area is increased from no requirement to 20"h, and the
required lot area is increased from 5,000 sq. ft. to 20,000 sq. ft. Staff
believes it is necessary to state that the change irom CC1 1o. CSC does
result in a struclure that does not conform to the develooment standards
as prescribed by CSG zoning. However, an amendment to the SDD
allows for devaitions from the development standards provided that thepublic benefits ol the proposal outweigh any adverse effects of the
proposed deviations. This process is described in Seclion Vl of this
memorandum.
Does the rezoning provide for the growth of an orderly viabte
community?
Because CSC does nol include horizontal zoning, but allows for many of
the same usss as CC'l , staff believes thal CSC riilt provide for the growth
of an orderly, viable community. The lack of tenants in the Vail Gateway
indicates that the uses allowed under CC1 are not viable in this location.
Staff believes that the uses proposed with CSC zoning will be more
viable. However, because the uses of the building have gone from retail
c_
D.
and restaurant uses to otfice uses, there will be a loss of polential sales
lax revenue. CSC does allow the flexibility for these uses to return.
ls the change consistent with the Land Use Plan?
The Vail Land Use Plan identifies the Vail Gateway as part of the Vail
Village Master Plan, which is discussed in delail below. Staff has
identified the following goals and objectives from lhe Vail Land Use Plan
which staff believes are applicable lo this proposal:
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment,
maintaining a balance betvveen residential,.commercial
and recreational uses to serve both the visitor and the
permanent resident.
1.3 The quality of development should be maintained and
u pg raded wh e neve r poss ib! e.
1.12 Vait should accommodate most of the additional growth in
existing developed areas (infill areas).
2.2 The ski area owner, the buslness community and the Town
leaders should work together closely to make existing
facilities and the Town function mare efficiently.
2.8 Day skiers need for parking and access should be
accommodated through creative solutions such as.'
lncreased busing lrom out of town.
Expanded points of access to the mountain by
adding additional base portals.
Continuing to provide temporAry surtace parking.
Addition of structured parking.
3.4 Commercial growth should be concentrated in existing
commercial areas to accommodate both local and visitor
needs.
3.5 Entertainment oriented busrness and cultural activities
should be encouraged in the core areas to create diversity.
More nighttime buslnesses, on-going events and
sanctioned "street happenings" should be encouraged.
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 lncreased density in the Core areas is acceptable so long
as the existing character of each area is preserved
thorough implementation of the Urban Design Guide PIan.

4.3 The ambiance of Vail Village is important to the identity af
Vail and should be preserved. (scale, alpine character,
small town feeling, mountains, natural setting, intimate
size, cosmopolitan feeling, environmental quality.)
4.4 The connection between the Vittage Core and Lionshead
should be enhanced through:
a) lnstattation of a new type of people mover.b) lmproving the pedestrian system with a creatively
designed connection, oriented toward a nature
walk, alpine garden, and/or sculpture plaza.c) New development should be controlled to limit
commercial uses.
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur
primaily in existing, platted areas and as appropriate in
new areas where high hazards do not exist.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made available
through private efforts, assisted by limited incentives,
provided by the Town of Vail with appropriate restrictions.
5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the marketplace
demands for a full range of housing types.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be preserved
and upgraded. Additional employee housing needs shouldbe accommodated at varied sites throughout the
community.
The Vail Village Master Plan identifies the property as "Mixed Use". The
Vail Village Master Plan defines "mixed use" as
This category includes the "historic" Village core and properties
near the pedestrianized slreels of the Village. Lodging, retail, and
a limited amount of office use are found in this category. With
nearly 270,000 sq. ft. of retail space and approximately 320
residential units, the mixed use character of these areas is a major
factor in the appeal of the Vail Village.
Specifically regarding the Gateway property, the Vail Village Master Plan,
in part, slates: "lf existing approval expires this site should be studied to
determine best use."
Staif has identified the following goals and objectives from the Vail Village
Master Plan which effect this proposal:
'1 I
Goal #1 - Encourage high quality redevelopment while preserving
the unique architectural scale of the Village in order to
sustain its sense of community and identity.
1.2.1 Objective: Encourage the upgrading and' redevelopment of residential and commercial
facilities.
Goal #2 - To foster a strong tourist industry and promote year-. around economic health and viab:ilty for the Village and for
the community as a whole.
2.1 Objective: Recognize the variety of land uses
found in the 10 sub-areas throughout the Village
and allow for development that is compatible with
these established land use oatterns.
2.4 Objeetive: Encourage the development of a
variety ol new commercial activity where
compatible with existing land uses.
2.5 Objective: Encourage the continued upgrading,

2.6 Objective: Encourage the development of
affordable housing units through the etforts of the
private sector.
.
Goal #5 - lncrease and improve the capacity, efficiency, and
aesfhefics of the transporlation and circulation system
throughout the Village.
5.1 Objective: Meet parking demands with pubtic
and private parking facilities.
5.1.3 Policy: Seek locations for additional
structured public and private parking.
Staff believes that the rezoning from CC1 to CSC is consistent with the
goals and objectlves of the Vail Land Use Plan and the Vail Village
Master Plan.
THE SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT MAJOR AMENDMENT PROCESS
The applicant is also requesting a major amendment to SDD #21 . The only
deviation from underlying zoning when the Gateway was originally approved with
cc1 as the underlying zone dislrict was from the height restriclions. The public
benefit identified lor the SDD was a pedestrian walkwav on the north and west
sides of the property. At lhe time, no employee housing units were required.
vt.
12
with the major amendment to the sDD, no exterior changes are proposed. The
addition of GRFA and the change in the underlying zoning trodr Ccr to csc
require a major amendment to the sDD. lt is imporlanl to note that with the
c-hange from cc1 to csc, the deviations from the underlying zone district ofcsc are greater than those from cc1. specifically, the deviatio;s are for GRFA;
setbacks, building height, and landscape area. According to section 12-gA-g of
the Zoning Regulations:
Development standards including lot area, site dimensioHs, sefbackg
height, density control, site coverage, landscaping and parking shatt be
determined by the Town Council as paft of the approved development
plan with consideration of the recommendations of the planning and
Environmental Commission. Before .the Town Counci! approves
development standards that deviate from the underlying zone district, it .
should be determined that such deviation provides benefits to the Town
that outweigh the adverse effects of such deviation. This determination is
to be made based on evaluation of the proposed special development
district's compliance with the design criteria outlined in Section l2-9A-g of
this Article.
chapter 12-9 of the Town of Vail Municipal code provides for the amendment of
exis-ting special Development Districts in the Town of Vail. .According to section
12-9A-1 , the purpose of a Special Development District is,
To encourage flexibitity and creativity in the development of land, in order
to promote lts mosf appropriate use; to improve the design character and
quality of the new development within the Town; to facititate'the adequate
and economical provision of streets and utilities; to preserue the natural
and scenic features of open space areas; and to further the overal! goals
of the community as stated in the Vail Comprehensive Plan. An approved
development plan for a Special Development District, 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 12-9A-2, a major amendment to a Special Development
District is defined as,
Any proposal to change uses; increaste gross residential floor area;
change the number of dwelling or arcommodation units; modify, enlarge
or expand any approved special development district (other than "minor
amendments" as defined in this Section), except as provided under
Secfions 12-15-4, "lnterior Conversions", or 12-15-5, "Gross Hesidentiat
Floor Area (250 Ordinance)" of this Title.
The Municipal code provides a framework for the amendmenl of an established
Special Development District. According to ihe Municipal Code, prior to site
preparation, building construction, or other improvements to land within a Special
Development District, there shall be an approved development plan for the
Special Development District. The approved development plan establishes
13
requirements regulating development, uses and activity wilhin the Special
Development District.
Upon final review of a proposed major amendment of an existing Special
Development District, a report from the Planning and Environmental Commission
stating its findings and recommendations and a staff report shall be forwarded to
theTown Council, in accordancewith the provisions listed in Section 12-16-6 ofthe Municipal Code. The Town Council's consideration of the Special
Development Districl shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Municipal
Code and approved by two readings of an ordinance.
An approved development plan is
development, uses and activities of
principal documenl in guiding the
Special Development District. The
development plan shall contain all relevant material and information necessary to
establish the parameters with which the Special Development District shall
adhere. The development plan may consist of, but nol be limited to, lhe
approved site plan, lloor plans, building sections and elevations, vicinity plan,
parking plan, preliminary open spaceilandscape plan, densities and permitted,
conditional and accessory uses.
The determination of permitted, conditional and accessory uses shall be made by
the Planning and Environmental Commission and Town Council as part o{ the
formal review of the proposed development plan. Unless further restricted
through lhe review of the proposed Special Development District, permitted,
conditional and accessory uses shall be limiled to those permitted, conditional
and accessory uses in the property's underlying zone district.
The Munigipal Code provides nine design criteria, which shall be used as the
principal criteria in evaluating the merits of the proposed major amendment to a
Special Development District. lt shall be the burden of the applicant to
clemonslrate 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 solulion consislent with the public interest has
been achieved. The staff has addressed each of the nine SDD review criteria
below:
A. Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment,
neighborhood and adjacent properties relative to architectural
design, scale, bulk, building height, bulfer zones, identity, character,
visual integrity and orientation.
No changes are proposed to the exterior of the building. Therefore, staff
does not believe that this criterion applies to this major amendment to the
SDD. However, there are some general maintenance concerns that staff
has identified and believe should be conditions of approval:
1. All of the signs for the businesses that are no longer located within
lhe building shall be removed.2. The sidewalk on the north side of the building shall be repaired3. The flood lights on.the northwest corner of the building shall be
removed.
the
the
14
B.
4. The stairwell on the easl side of the building shall be cleaned and
repaired.5. The lattice on the east side of the building shall be repaired.
Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and
workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
The proposal to redevelop the Vail Gateway include the conversion of
existing retail and restauranl space into office space, the addilion of two
dwelling units, and the addilion of a private parking club. The density
allowed by CSC zoning is 18 dwelling units per acre, or 9 dwelling units
allowed on this site. The applicant is proposing 9 dwelling units, which is
equal to 16.2 dwelling units per acre. Staff believes that these uses are
compalible with the surrounding uses, which include the Vail Plaza Hotel
East (proposed), the Vail Plaza Hotel West (proposed), and the Alpine
Standard. The Vail Plaza Hotel Easl is proposed at 12.7 dwelling units
per acre. The Vail Plaza Hotel West is proposed al 6.47 dwelling units
per acre. Currently, the HS zoning of the Alpine Standard does not allow
any residential uses on the sile. The conditional use permits required for
the dwelling units and private parking club are discussed in Section Vll of
this memorandum.
Emplovee Housinq 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,contained within the report
were used most recently in the review of the Vail Plaza Hotel West
development proposal.
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 amounl of floor area dedicated to each use.
The figures identified in the Housing Report are based on surveys of
commercial-use employment needs of the Town of Vail and other
mounlain resort communities. For comparison purposes, Telluride,
Aspen and Whistler B.C. all have "employment generation" ordinances
requiring developers to provide affordable housing for a percenlage of the
"new" 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 percenlage of affordable housing a developer must
provide for the "new" employees. For example, Telluride requires
developers to provide housing tor 401" (0.a0) of the "new" employees,
Aspen requires that 60% (0.60) of the "new" employees are provided
15
housing and Whistler requires that 100% (1.00) of the "new" employees
be provided housing by the developer. In comparison, Vail has
conservatively determined thal developers shall provide housing tor 15,/.
(0.15) or 30% (0.30) of the "new" employees resulting from commercial
development. When a project is proposed to exceed the density allowed
by the underlying zone district, the 30% (0.30) tigure is used in the
calculation. lf a projecl is proposed al, or below, the density allowed by
the underlying zone district, the 15% (0.15) figure is used. This special
development district major amendmenl proposal exceeds the density
(GRFA is considered a measure of density) permitted by the underlying
zone district, and therelore, the 30% figure shall be used. However, for
the existing development which did nol exceed density, the 15% figure is
used.
EMPLOYEE HOUSING GENEHATION ANALYSIS
. When SDD #21 was originally approved, no employee housing units were
required. The applicant is proposing no employee housing units in
conjunction with this major SDD amendment. Staff believes that there is
a defined town objective addressing the public need for employee
housing. Recent SDDs and SDD major amendments have required
EHUs, including, but not limited to:
SDD #35 - Austria Haus; 7 EHUs
SDD #31 - Golden Peak House: 2 EHUs
SDD#7- Marriott Mark: 6 EHUs
SDD#30-VAC: 5 EHUs
SDD #36 - Vail Ptaza Hotel West: 14 EHUs
The staff analysis below indicates the top, the middle and the bottom of
the ranges recommended by the Town of Vail Employee Hoqsing Repon,
as well as a stafi recommended figure which was used in delermining the
employee housing needs ol the Vail Galeway. Staff is providing the
Employee Housing Generation Analysis for the existing development and
the proposed changes:

Staff Recommended Ranoe Calculations:
The analysis above has been provided for comparison and discussion
purposes. Staff acknowledges that employee numbers determined as a
resull oJ the methodology may be inconsislent with numbers generated
for olher redevelopmenl proposals. However, in the absence of any other
codified or reasonably accepted methodology, or a proposal from the
applicant, this approach was used as a basis for discussions. Arguably,
staff agrees that other methods of determination could be used to
calculate employee housing needs. Most importantly, staff believes lhal
the Town of Vail has consislently required applications for redevelopmenl
within Special Development Dislricts to mitigate development impacts.
Slaff acknowledges that number of units required for final approval has
not always equaled the number delermined as a result of the employee
generation analysis.
Because of the change in uses, slaff believes that the proposal for the
Vail Gateway will reduce the number of employees generated by 16.87
employees (trom 84.44 to 67.67). To be consistent in the application oi
requiring employee housing to mitigate development impacls and to
address the identified public interest, staff recommends that the applicant
for the Vail Gateway proposal be required to provide employee housing.
Staff acknowledges that there will be an overall reduction in the potential
number of employees on the Vail Gateway site 1s a result of this
redevelopment proposal. However, staff recognizes that the original SDD
approval did not require, nor did the applicant provide, any employee
housing. Fundamentally, staff believes that this applicant should be
required lo address the impacts of development on this site. The exact
number of units or beds 1o be required should be discussed.
The Vail Gateway redevelopment application proposes to exceed the
allowable density (GRFA is a measure of density) on lhe site, and
therefore, the 30% multiplier was used in the determination of employee
generation. Under CC1 zoning, the Vail Gateway did not exceed density,
so the 15% mulliplier was used. The difference in the number of
employees requiring housing is 7.6. This is based on the use of the Vail
Gateway as professional offices thal generate the need for year-round
employees.
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
accommodatlng three to four employees. These figures are consistenl
wilh the requirements for the Type lll employee housing units outlined in
the Municipal Code.
The applicant is proposing no employee housing units in conjunction with
the proposal. Again, staff recommends that it is necessary for the
applicant to provide employee housing to be,consistent in our application
of requiring the mitigation of development impacts.
Overall, staff believes that the density and uses proposed by the applicant
for the Vail Gateway do not conflict with the compatibility, efficiency or
workability of the surrounding uses and/or activities.
C. Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in
Chapter 12-10 of the Town of Vail Municipal Code.
Parkino
The applicant exceeds the parking requirement as outlined in Chapter 12-
10 of the Town Code. According to Chapter 12-10, the applicant is
required to provide 47 parking spaces. According to the exisling plans on
file with the office of Community Development, there are g3 spaces in the
parking structure. On site, there are currently g2 spaces in the parking
structure. Of these, 42 are tandem spaces. Tandem spaces are allowed
for valet parking and for residential parking. The applicant is proposing
that the private parking ciub will utilize 39 parking spaces. The current
parking requirement for dwelling units at the Vail Gateway is 1.4 per unit.
However, the applicant is allocating 2 spaces per unit. Valet services will
be provided. Staff is recommending a condition for a parking plan that
clearly indicates which uses specific parking spaces will be reserved for.
According to the Town Code, the proposed uses require 47 parking
spaces. There are currently 92 spaces in the parking structure. The
applicant is proposing that a maximum of 39 of the spaces will be used
for the parking club, leaving a remainder of 6 spaces. This will allow for
any fulure expansions or changes in use that would require additional
parking to be accommodated on site.
Loadinq
The applicant is not currently proposing any changes to the loading
situation at the Vail Gateway. However, there is a condilion of approval
for SDD #6, Vail Village Inn, which states:
That the Developer coordinate efforts with the owners of the
Gateway Building to create a below ground access for loading and
delivery to the Gateway from the Vail Plaza Hotel to resolve
potential loading and delivery concerns at the Gateway. lf a
coordinated effort can be reached the Developer shall submit
revised plans to the Town of Vail Community Development
Depaftment for review and approval, prior to the issuance of a
building permit.
Slaff recommends that a similar condition be placed on the Vail Gareway
regarding a combined loading and delivery system for the Vail Gateway
D.
E.
F.
G.
H.
and the Vail Plaza Hotel. This will eliminate loading and delivery lraffic
from Vail Road, locating it instead on the Frontage Rd. and addresses the
concern of the Gateway residential owners that lhe current loading and
delivery facility for the Gateway has negative impacts on their enjoymentof the residential units. The implementation of the recommended
condition may cause a reduction in the number of parking spaces
available for the use of lhe private club.
Conformity with the applicabte elements ol the Vail Comprehensive
Plan, Town policies and Urban Design Plan.
A complete analysis of the Vail Land Use Plan and Vail Village Master
Plan are in Section V of this memoranbum. The applicant is proposing no
exterior changes as this time.
ldentification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that
affect the property on which the special development district is
proposed.
There are no natural ancl/or geologic hazards that effect the applicant's
property.
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

The applicanl is not proposing any exterior changes to the building.
Therefore, stafl believes that this criterion is not applicable to this
application.
A circutation sysiem designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off-site traffic circulation.
Staff believes that the existing circulation system is appropriate for the
change in use.
Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space

No exlerior changes are proposed. Staff feels that
landscaping and open space are satistactory.

20
vil.
The issuance of a conditional use permit is required to allow for the residential
dwelling units and the private parking club at the Vail Galeway. The applicant isproposing a lotal of 9 dwelling units on the site. The applicant is also proposing
that 39 of the parking spaces on site be utilized as part of a private paiking cluu.
In add.ition, 240 sq. ft. of the building is allocated to the use'of the parking club,providing guest services to the club members, including ski storage ano
restrooms. The review criteria for a request of this nalure are establisheo ny tneTown of Vail Municipal code. The proposal is subject to the issuance of a
conditional use permil in accordance with the provisions of ritle 12. chaoter 16.
For the Planning and Environmental commission's reference, the conditionar use
permit purpose stalement indicales that:
ln order to provide the tlexibility necessary to achieve the objectives of
this title, specified uses are permitted in certain districts subject to the
granting of a conditional use permit. Because of their unusual or specia!
characteristics, conditional uses require review so that they may be
located properly with respect to the purposes of this titte and with respecr
to their effects on surrounding properties. The review process prescribedin this chapter is intended to assure compatibitity and harmonrcus
development betuveen conditional uses and surrounding properties in the
Town at large. Uses listed as conditional uses in the various districts may
be permitted subject to such conditions and limitations as the Town may
prescribe to insure that the location and operation of the conditional uses
will be in accordance with the development objectives of the Town and
will not be detrimentd to other uses or propefties. Where conditions
cannot be devised, to achieve these objectives, applications for
conditional use permits shall be denied.
A. Consideration ol Factors:
. 1. Relationship and impact ol the use on development
objectives of the Town.
Multiplejamilv dwellinqs: The establishment of a Special
Development District does not allow a proposal to vary the uses of
the underlying zoning. Multiple-family dwellings are considered a
conditional use in the CSC zone districl. The applicant is
proposing 9 dwelling units on the property. Staff has identified the
following objectives from the Vail Land Use Plan which stalf
believes are applicable to the conditional use permit request for
the existing and proposed multiple-family dwellings:
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to
occur primarily in existing, platted areas and as
appropriate ih new areas where high hazards do
not exist.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made
available through private efforts, assisted by limited
21
incentives, provided by the Town of Vail with
appropriate restricti ons.
5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the
marketplace demands for a full range of housing
types.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be
preserued and upgraded. Additional employee
housing needs should be accommodated at varied
sites throughout the community.
Sta{f believes that the multiple-{amily dwellings meet the
objeclives of the Town of Vail. However, staff believes that it is
necessary to provide employee housing with this development.
Type lll Employee Housing Unils should be developed as part of
the new residential GRFA that is proposed.
Private club: The applicanl is proposing a privale parking club
which, if the text amendment to CSC is approved, is considered a
conditional use in the CSC zone district. A similar product can be
seen at Golden Peak. Staff has identlfied the following objective
from the Vail Land Use Plan which staff believes are applicable to
the condilional use permit request for the private parking club:
2.8 Day skiers need for parking and access should be
accommodated through creative solutions such as:
a) Increased busing from out of town.b) Expanded points of access to the mountain
by adding additional base portals.c) Continuing to provide temporary surface
Parking.d) Addition of structured parking.
In addition, staff has identified the following goals and objectives
lrom the Vail Village Masler Plan which are applicable to this
projecl:
Goal #5 - lncrease and improve the capacity, efficiency,
and aesthetics ol the transportation and circulation system
throughout the village.
5.1 Objective: Meet parking demands with public
and private parking facilities.
5.1.3 Policy: Seek locations for additiona!
structured public and private parking.
tt
2.
Slaff believes that the provision of additional private parking
through the parking club is a benefit to the Town of Vail by
eliminating some of the pressure on the public parking facilities.
In addition, the Vail Transportation Master Plan identifies the
following goal:
Retain the private parking supply as an important and
needed element.
Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population,
lransportation facilities, utilities, schools, parks and
recreation lacilities, and other public facilities and public
tacilities needs.
Multiple- lamilv dwellinqs: The addilional dwellings are created by
infilling an existing vaulted space within the Vail Gateway. Staff
does not believe that there will be any negative effects of the use
on light and air. The density proposed is within the allowable
density for the CSC zone district. CSC allows for g dwelling units
on this site. The applicant is proposing 9 dwelling units on site.
Sta{f does not believe that there wlll be any adverse effecls on the
above listed crileria.
Private club: The private parking club will a positive impact on the
above-mentioned criteria. . The provision of private parking
lessens the need for additional public parking facilities.
Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion,
automotive and pedestrian safety'and convenience, traffic
flow and control, access, maneuverability, and removal of
snow lrom the streets and parking areas.
Multiole-familv dwellinos: As stated above, the additional dwelling
unils will be created by the infill of an interior space. Staff does
not believe that the additional dwelling units or existing 7 dwelling
units will have any adverse effecls on the above listed criteria.
Private club: As stated above, staff believes that the private
parking club will be beneficial. lt uses an underutilized parking

Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed
use is to be located, including the scale and buik of the
proposed use in relation lo surrounding uses.
Multiple-familv dwellinos: Staff does not believe that the addition
of 2 dwelling units, nor the existing 7 dwelling units will have a
negative eifect on the character of the area. Adjacenl properties
include other mixed use developmenls (Vail Plaza Hotel Easl and
West). While there are no current plans to redevelop the Alpine

Standard, discussions with the owner have also indicated lhal a
redevelopment would include a mixed-use product which would
include residential dwelling units. Because there are no exterior
changes proposed, stafl does not believe that there will be anv
adverse effects on surrounding uses.
Private club: Staff does not believe that the private parking clubwill have any negative effects on the characler of the
neighborhood. The parking spaces currently exist on site.
B: FINDINGS
The Planning and Environmental Commission shall make the following
findings before granting a conditional use permit:
2. That lhe proposed location of the use is in accordance with the
purposes of the conditional use permit section of the zoning code
and the purposes of the district in which the site is located.
2. That the proposed localion of the use and the condilions under' which it would be operated or maintained would not be detrimental
to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to
properties or improvements in the vicinity.
3. That the proposed use would comply with each of the applicable
provisions of the conditional use permit section of the zoning
code.
VIII. REVIEW CRITERIA AND FINDINGS FOR ZONING CODE AMENDMENTS
In addition to the rezoning request, the applicant has requested an amendment
10 the Commercial Service Cenler zone district, allowing private clubs as a
conditional use in the zone district, Currently, the zoning code defines "private"
as "A use, area, property or facility which is not public.' The zoning code
currenlly allows private clubs as a conditional use iri the following zone districls:
Residenlial Cluster
Low Density Mulliple Family
Medium Density Multiple Family
Public Accommodation
Ski Base Recreation
In addition 1o amending the code lo allow for private clubs as a conditional use in
the CSC zone district, staff is also proposing a definition of a private club. This
will allow for grealer clarification in other siluations. The following amendments
are proposed:
1 2-7 E-4: CONDITIONAL USES:
Private Club
24
12-2-2: DEF|N|TIONS
Private Club: an association of persons and its premises who are
bonafide members paying dues, use of such prer.nises being
restricted to members and their guests.
The review criteria for a request of this nature are established by the Town of Vail
MunicipalCode.
A.Consideration of Factors:
1. That the proposed amendments are consistent with the
.development objectives oJ the Town of Vail as stated in the
Vail Land Use plan.
As a conditional use, the addition of a private club will be subject
to the following review criteria:
1. Relationship and impact of the use on development
objectives of the Town.
2. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of
population, transpoftation facilities, utilities, schools,
parks and recreation facilities, and other public facilities
and public lacilities needs.
3. Effect upon traffic, with parlicular reference to
congestion, automotive and pedestrian safety and
convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the streets
and parking areas.
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which thte
proposed use is lo be located, including the scale and
bulk of the proposed use in relation to surrounding
uses.
The addition of a definition of "private club" will clarify the use in all
situations. Slaff believes that this will improve the development
review process for both applicants and staff.
2, That the proposal is consistent and compatible with existing
and potential uses within Vail and generally in keeping with
the character of the Town of Vail.
Again, staff believes that as a conditional use, subject to the
above review criteria by the Planning and Environmental
Commission, private clubs can be reviewed for compatibility with
existing and polential uses within the Town in the CSC zone
dislrict.

Application Supplement
For Amendments to the
VAIL GATEWAY BUILDING
Town of Vail, Colorado
June 11, 2001
The Vail Gateway Buiiding was originally proposed in the late- 1 980's and during the review
ofthe project there was a great deal ofdebate regarding how this parcel ofland should be
developed. The parcel's location at the "gateway''to Vail Viliage made it a very strategic
parcel ofland, however it's physical separation from the Village's pedestrian corridors
presented a number of other challenges. Ultimately the project was approved as Special
Development District No. 21 with an underlying zoning of Commercial Core 1 (CCl) and in
the early 1990's the Gateway Building was opened with a mixture of retail shops,
restaurants and residential condominiums.
Over the past 11 years it has become apparent that the ."ruit *a restaurant aspects of the
project simply do not work. At the time of this application a1l restaurant and retail spaces
within the building are vacant. Reasons for the failure of businesses within the building
cannot be attributed to any one sollrce, however it seems very evident that the site's isolation
from the pedestrian areas along Meadow Drive and the Village core make it difficult to
attract pedestrians to the project. While only one block off of Meadow Drive, the Gateway
Building is apparently too far "offthe beaten path" to sustain retail and restaurant uses.
All commercial space within the building is owned by one entity (the six residential units are
owned by individual owners). In response to the failure of retail and restaurant uses, the
owner of the commercial space has spent the past year evaluating a variety of different
development programs in an attempt to revitalize what can only be described as a distuessed
property. Existing zoning of the property has proven to be a major constraint to assembling
a feasible re-development pro$am for the building.
The fundamental problem with the revitaiization of the building has proven to be the CCI
underlying zoning. As with arry SDD, the underlying zoning establishes permitted and
conditional uses for the proper:ty. The CCI district essentially allows for only retail and
restaurant uses on street level. While this zoning was deemed appropriate for the original
developers concept for the building, iristory has demonstrated that retail and restaurant uses
are not viable. Due to the limited range of uses pemritted on the street level, the CC1 zone
district presents a major constraint to the revitalization of this building.
Vail Gateway Building, Vail, Colorado
Braun Associates- Inc.
Page I
The proposed revitalization of the building is intended to provide viable commercial activity
in this rnixed-use area of the Town and would be accomplished prir4arily by simply
broadening tire range of commercial uses pennitted within the building. The major elements
of this revitalization proposai include the following:
. A change to underlying zoning in order to allow for office and other commercial uses on
the street level ofthe building,. The addition of two residential dwelling units on the third floor,o Establishment of a "parking club" within the building, and.. All proposed modifications will take place within the existing building, i.e. no
physical expansions ofthe building are proposed.
The zone change is intended to allow for office use on the street level ofthe building and
will also maintain the mixed-use character of the building. At the same time, this change
will allow for a use (office) that is not dependant upon pedestrian traffic. Employees,
visitors, and activity will be introduced to the site that at the same time will help support
other retail and commercial businesses in the surrounding area. The parking club concept
was developed in response to flre over abundance ofparking already existing on the property
(after accounting for the changes in potential uses, the property will have a surplus of39
parking spaces). The appiicant believes that this can be a successful use for the property by
providing guests and residents the opportunity for "close-in" parking and club amenities,
thus reducing demands placed on the town's parking structures. The proposed residential
units on the third floor represent a limited expansion of a land use that has proven to be a
viable use on the site. Total project density will be within the density levels originally
approved by SDD No. 21.
The proposed re-development package, taken as a whole, provides a win-win solution for
both the owner of the building and the community.
In order to allow for these changes, the followilg five applications have been submitted:
. Chaage to the underlying zoning from Commercial Core I (CCl) to Commercial
Service Center (CSC). This change will allow for office uses on the ground floor of
the building. The CSC district is a more appropriate zoning for the property based
on the Town's Land Use Plan and Vail Villaee Master Plan.
. Major amendment to SDD No. 2l. This amendment will allow for minor changes to
the development plan and to development standards and also acknowledge the
change to the underlying zone district.
. Zoning text amendment to the Commercial Service Center zone district. This
amendment will allow for "private clubs" as a conditional use.

Building Vail, Colorado
il. Rezoning from Copnmercial Core I to Commercial Service Center
The change in underlying zoning from Commercial Core I to Cornmercial Service Center is
proposed in order to allow for a wider range ofuses on the property, specifically the
introduction of office uses on street level. With the exception of the "horizontal-use
zoning" found in the CCl district, there are very few differences in pennitted and
conditional in the CCI and CSC districts. There are sorne slight differences in the
development standards (i.e. setbacks, building height, etc.) of these two districts. Hewever,
SDD No. 2l establishes development standards for this property and as such, any
differences between the development standards of CCl and CSS are academic.
The only other site in Vail cunently zoned CSC is the Crossroads Plaza. Crossroads is
proximate to the Vail Gateway property and also has a very sirnilar context to Vail Gateway.
Both sites are located along the Frontage Road and both are located on the periphery of Vail
Village. Both properties have been developed as mixed-use projects with office, retail and
residential uses.
When the Gateway Building was originally proposed the property was zoned Heavy
Service and was occupied by a gas station. Not long after the Gateway Buiiding was
approved, the Vail Village Master Plan (VVMP) was adopted. This Plan designated the
Gateway site as "mixed use". The Plan also defined a portion of flre Village as
Comnrercial Core I and tire Gateway Building was not included within this area. As
such, the current CCI zoning is in conflict with the land use designation of the VVMP.
The proposed change to CSC would be consistent with the VVMP's mixed-use
designation and bring th.e property into greater compliance with the Plan.
Tbe criteria which the Town uses to evaluate a rezoning request include:
Is the proposed zoning suitable with the existing land uses on the site and
adjacent land uses?
Response:
The uses listed in the CSC zone district are nearly tlte same as those containecl in
the CCl district. The location of uses within the building dffirs in that the CSC
zone allows office uses on any leyel of a building. In rcrnts of compatibility, the
CSC zone district is consistent and complementary of the uses located on-site ond
on neighboring properties. The proposed CSC zoning will continue to allow
mixed uses consistent with the Vail Village Master Plan and the Vail Land Use
Plan.
Is the amendment preventing a convenient workable relationship with land
uses consistent $'ith municipal objectives?

3) Does the zoning provide for the growth of an orderly, viable community?
Response:
The proposed CSC zone district will providefor orderly growth by allowingfor
uses that are consistent with Town goals. This zone change will also allow the
owner greater Jlexibility in the range of land uses tlnt will be permissible on the
property: In doittg so, this will provide for a more viable property and a more
viable community.
4) Is the change consistent with the Land Use Plan?
Response:
The proposal complies with the Land Use Plan and the Vait Village Master Plan and
specifi.cally the following policies :
Vail Land Use Plan:
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a coutrolled environment, maintaining a
balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to serve
both the visitor and the pennanent resident.
1.3 The quality of development should be maintained and upgraded whenever
possible.
l.l2 Vail should accornmodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (inlill areas).
2.2 The ski area owner, the business community and the Town leaders should
work together closely to make existing facilities and the Town function
more effectiveiy.
3.4 Comrnercial growth should be concentrated in existing commercial areas
to accommodate both local and visitor needs.
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue.to occur primarily in
existilg, platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high hazards
do not exist.

IIr.Maior Amendment to Special Development District No. 21
The Vail Gateway Building was developed in accordance with the provisions of Special
Development District No. 21. An amendment to SDD No. 21 is necessary to acknowledge
the change in underlying zoning and to allow for one change to the previously approved
development plan.
Physical changes to the building are lirnited to interior modifications only. No modifications
are proposed to the exterior of the building. As such, there are no changes to building
height, setbacks, site coverage, etc. Interior changes include theproposed change ofuses,
the addition of two new dwelling units and the addition of 4,723 square feet of GRIA. Of
these three changes, only the addition of GRFA requires an amendment to the existing SDD
(the potential change ofuses is addressed by the proposed chzurge in underlying zoning and
the addition of two dwelling units does not require an amendment because the existing SDD
allows for up to 12 dwelling uuits and there are only six units cunently ou the property).
SDD No. 21 currently allows for 13,000 square feet of GRFA. Proposed modi{ications to
the building would increase this number to 17,160, or an increase of 4,160 square feet. The
vast majority of this new GRFA is a result of converting existing conrmercial square footage
to GRFA. Of the new GRFA proposed, oniy 963 square feet of the 4,160 square feet is
actually new floor area. This new floor area is created by infilling the mezzanine space on
the third floor in the old Michael's Restaurant.
The proposed amendments to the development plan are in conformance with the Special
Development District review criteria, as applicable to this application, as described below:
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.
Response:
The bulk and scale ofthe project are already defined by the existing
building and tlterefore the proposed amendments do not have an impact on
bulk an.d nnss.
Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and
workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
Response:
This re-development plan provides for a mixture of office, retail,
restaurarxt, service, and residential uses on theproiterty. The building is
located in a "mixed use" area identified by the Vail Villase Master. The
B.

uses located otx adjacent properties; residential, lodging, retail, and
ffices, are compatible with the proposed development progranx.
C. Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in
Chapter 12-10 of the Town of Vail Municipal Code.
Response:
All existing on-site parking and loadingfacilities will remain unchanged.
Tlte proposed changes to uses within the building will, however,
significantly reduce the needfor parking and loading and delivety
facilities. Excess parking spaces are proposed to be utilized as a parking
club. Refer to the attached CUP applicationfor this club.
D. Conformity with the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive
Plan, Town policies and Urban Design PIan.
Response:
There are no cltanges proposed to the exterior ofthe building and as such
tltis criteria is not relevant.
E. Identification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that
affect the property on which the special development district is
proposed.
Response:
The proposed amendment has no impact on this criterion.
F'. 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 ofthe
community.
Response:
There are no changes proposed to the exterior ofthe building or the site
and as such lhis criteria is not relevant
G. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off-site traffic circulation.
Response:
There are no changes proposed to the exterior ofthe building or site and
as such this criteria is not relevant. It is anticipated however, that the
proposed changes to the building will result in significantly less vehicular
n'afJic to andfrom the site. This is prinzarily due to tlrc elimination of

residential units.
H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to
optimize and preserve natural features, recreation, views and
functions.

There are no changes proposed to the exterior ofthe building or the site
and as such this criteria is not relevant,
I. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable,
functional and efficient relationship throughout- the development of

IV.Text Amendment to Commercial Servige Center Allowing Private Clubs
A text amendment to the Commercial Service Center zone district is proposed to allow for
"private clubs" as a conditional use. Subject to approval of this text amendment, it is the
intention of the applicant to gain approval of a conditionai use permit for a private club at
the Gateway Building. This club would be established to utilize the excess parking spaces
within the Gateway Building. Refer to the attached cuP application for additional
information on this club.
'?rivate clubs" are currently listed as conditional uses in the following zone districts:
Residential Cluster,
Low Density Multiple-Family,
Medium Density Multiple-Fanily,
High Density Multiple-Family,
Public Accommodation, and
Ski Base Recreation.
Examples of private clubs in Vail include the Vail Athletic Club, the Cascade Club, the
Passport Club and the Vail Village Club (now closed). The Passport Club at Golden Peak is
a recent example where the Town approved a conditional use permit for a private parking
club that was defined as a'lrivate club".
Allowing for "private clubs" as a cond.itional use provides the Town with the abiiity to
review a specific proposal to ensure it is compatible with other uses on the site in the area
before permitting the use on the property. This allows the Town ample control over land
uses while at the same time allowing the landowner flexibility ia the management and use of
its property.
The proposed text amendment is consistent with permitted and conditional uses in the CSC
zone district and appropriate for those specifrc properties currently designated as CSC.

V.Conditional Use Permit - Private Parkins Club .
There are currently 89 parking spaces within the Gateway Building. This number of spaces
was provided in response to the uses originally proposed for the building. Original uses were
dominated by restaurant and retail uses that happen to have relatively high parking ratios.
With flre changes proposed by these re-development applications, the amount of required on-
site parking is sigrrificantly reduced. The following table summarizes uses contemplated for
the building and the resulting parking requirement:

(1) Itis assumed that all 13,600 square feet of commercial space is utilized as ofice. The proposed CSC
zoning will also allow for retail and restaurant uses withitx this space. Ifsuch uses occur, any increase in
required parking will reduce the number of spaces attailable for the parking club.
(2) Town cod.e requires J.4 spaces per dwelling unit, however acisting declarations desigtate 2 spaces per
untt-
(3) The Parking Club sq. ft. could be increased without increasing the need for parking on the site.
As proposed, 39 "excess" spaces will result on the property. The proposed parking club will
make these spaces availabie for use, thereby relieving some pressure on the Town's parking
structures. The parking club would have the following features:
I
I
Utilization of up to 39 parking spaces,
A small club facility that would provide a lounge area, restrooms, changing room,
storage, etc.
Valet service, which among other things will allow for very efficient use of
previously approved "tandem spaces"
Parking spaces may be sold, leased or made available on a daily fee basis.
A parking club is a relatively new use to the Town of Vail. There is a demand for parking
close to the Village Core and the ski portals that has adequate amenities for users (i.e., locker
rooms, dressing areas, ski storage, etc.). On this properfy, the parking spaces already exist in
an enclosed structure. Provisions existing within the Town's code could allow for these
excess spaces to be leased. This conditional use permit will essential allow the applicant the
right to provide guest services in conjunction with the parking. This is analogous to efforts
the Town has taken to provide "guest service" facilities such as ski storage and rest roorns at
the Village Structure.
"Conditional" uses are uses that are generally deemed compatible with other permitted and
conditional uses within a zone district, subject to compiiance with specific review criteria, If
Varl Gateway Building, Vail, Colorado
Braun Associates. Inc-
Page 14
the review criteria are met by tlie PEC, the use is deemed compatible and approved. The
following are lhe review criteria for a conditioiral use pennil:
A. Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of the Town.
Response:
The proposed private parking club is consistenr with Town objectit es to provide a high
level of service to guests and to maximize the use of private parking. This use is
expected to lessen demands on the Town's existing parking facilities.
B. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities, and other public
facilities and public facilities needs.
Respon se:
The proposed parking club will have no adt erse impacts on these factors. The parking
club is expected to lessen demands on the Town's parking facilities.
C. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the streets and parking area.
Response:
Tlte parking club will generate trffic to tlte site, however it is anticipated that atfull
utilization, each parking space will generate only one in-bound and one out-bound
trip each day. Even with parking club trffic, the overall mix of uses proposedfor
the property will result in a reduction of vehicle trips to the property. This is
primarily due to the reduction in the number of restaurants located in the building.
D. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk ofthe proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
Response:
The proposal does not change the bulk and mass ofthe existing building and therefore
ltas no impact on this criterion.

VI. Conditional Use Permit - Residential Uses
A conditional use pemit is necessary to allow for the existing and proposed residential uses
on the property. The residential uses have been in place on the property for the last I 1 years.
Two additional units are proposed for a total of eigirt dwelling units. Issues of compatibility
of residential uses with commercial activities have proven successful on this project and
throughout the Town of Vail. Additionaily, the Vail Village Master Plan recognizes this
area as "mixed use", appropriate for a mixture of retail, office and residential uses.
The following are the review criteria for a conditional use permit:
A. Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of the Town.
Response:
The proposed residential dwelling units are consistent with Town objectives and ntaster
plans. The Vail Village Master Plan designates this site as "mixed-use". The proposed
density ofdwelling units proposed is less than that originally approvedfor the site by
SDD #21 (I 2 units were originally approved, eigltt are proposed).
B. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities, and other public facilities
and putrlic facilities needs.
Response:
The proposed residential dwelling units will have little, if any, impact on these issues.
C. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the streets and parking area.
Response:
Two proposed dwelling units will have little to no affect on thesefactors. The overall
proposed mix of uses on the property will reduce the number of vehicle trips to the
proPerty. This is primarily due to the reduction in the number of restaurants located in
the building.
D. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk ofthe proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
Response:
The proposal does not change the bulk and mass of th.e existing building and tlterefore
does not have an impact on this criterion.

employees. The "new" employees are in addition to the 79 "full time equivalent" employees
already working at the Chateau at Vail. The applicant is proposing to provide deed-restricted
employee housing for 30% (28 beds) of the "new" employees. In order to maximize the benefit of
the housing to the Town of Vail, the applicant has suggested that the housing will be available

97 additional "neW' employees. Of the 97 additional employees, at least 28 employees (30%) will
need to be provided deed-restricted housing by the developers of the Vail Plaza Hotel West.
Please refer to Section lX of the staff memorandum for details regarding square footages and

The applicant is proposing to provide employee housing for a percentage of the "new" employees
resulting from the hotel construction. Based upon an analysis completed by the applicant and
provided to the Community Developmenl Department, the new hotel is expected to generate 105"ne#' einployees. The "new" employees are in addition to the 74 employees already working
full-time or part-time a1 the Vail Village Inn. The applicant is proposihg to provide deed-restricted
employee housing for 30% (32) of the "new" employees. Due to the unavailability of private
vacant land resources within the Town limits, the applicant anticipates that all or a portion of the
deed-restricted housing will be provided in an out-oftown 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 the out-of-town or down-valley
location to the hotel.

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

Department of Community Development
August 13,2001
A request for a final review of the proposed parking management plan for
the Vail Gateway, located al 12 Vail Road / portions of lots O and N,
Block 5D, Vail Village 1sI Filing.
Owner: Mountain Owners, L.P.
Applicant: Timberline Commercial Real Estate, represented by Braun
Associates, Inc.Planner: Allison Ochs
BACKGROUND OF THE REQUEST
The applicant, Mountain Owners, L.P., submitted an application to the
Department of Community Development for the Vail Gateway, located at 12 Vail
Road. The proposal consists of three major elements:
1. Allowing office uses and olher commercial uses on the first level of the
building,2. Adding two residential dwelling units and 4,345 sq. ft. of GRFA, and3. Allowing a private parking club within the building.
These three elements of the proposal require the following processes:
1. A rezoning of the underlying zoning of Comrnercial Core I to Commercial
Service Center.2. A major amendment to Special Development District No. 21 , to allow lor
the changes in development standards as prescribed by the special
development district.3. A text amendment to Commercial Service Center to allow lor a private
club as a conditional use.4. A conditional use permit for a private club. The private club proposed is a
private parking club, which would allow parking on the site to be available
for private use.5. A conditional use permit to allow for residential dwelling units in the
Commercial Service Center zone district. Multiple-family dwellings are a
conditional use in the Commercial Service Center zone district.
The Planning and Environmental Commission forward a recommendation of
approval for ilems 1, 2, and 3 above. The Planning and Environmental
Commission approved items number 4 and 5. The conditional use permit for the
private parking club carried the following conditions:
il.
1. Prior io first reading ol the amending ordinance, that the applicant provides a
parking plan which identifies the use and type of ownership of each individual
parking space. This inlormation will be kept on file with the Department of
Community Development. Each space must be signed on lhe site
accordingly.
2. Thal the approval of the conditional use permit for the private parking club is
subject to the approval of the text amendments by the Town council as
outlined in Section Vlll of the staff memorandum.
3. That no more than 39 of parking spaces shall be used as part of the private
club.
The applicant has provided a parking management as required by the first
condition. The proposed parking management plan has been ailached for
reference.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department recommends denial of the proposed
parking management plan, subject to the following linding:
1. That there are adequate solutions available to the applicant which would
allow the proposal to meet lhe requirements of Chapter 12-10 and Title
14 of the Town Code.
PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Vail Gateway proposal is to add 2 addifional dwelling units, convert existing
retail and commercial space to office space, and to add a private parking club.
The change of uses on the property changes the parking requirement. Staff has
provided lhe following parking analysis:
TotalRequired: 4Tspaces
Total Propsed: 93 spaces (42 tandem)
(51 non-tandem)
Office/Commercial: 34 spaces required
Residential:13 spaces required
The applicant is proposing the lollowing:
Office Commercial: 41 spaces (34 tandem)
1il.
Residential:
Parking Club:
13 spaces (8landem)
39 spaces
The applicant is providing an adequate number ol parking spaces to meet
Chapter 12-10 of the Town Code. However, the applicant is using tandem
spaces to meet lhe required number of parking spaces. Tandem parking is only
allowed when valel service is also provided. The applicant is not proposing valet
services. Should the Planning and Environmental Commission approve the
parking management plan, this would be included as one of the deviations of the
special development district major amendment.
The applicant is proposing lo utilize 39 parking spaces as part of the parking
club. These parking spaces are not tandem spaces. These parking spaces are
leased spaces and not assigned to a particular lease holder. Instead, the parking
club member has a right to 1 of 39 parking spaces.
Tandem Parking
According to Title 14, 'tandem parking is not permitted for commercial uses
unless approved as valet parking." The applicant believes that as the owner of
the office spaces, the building will manage the parking without the use of valet
parkinE.
Staff has identified alternatives that would allow the applicant to fully utilize the
existing slructure, meeting the parking requirement for the office and residential
uses, without tandem parking. However, it does reduce the lotal number of
parking spaces for the parking club if the applicant does not wish to use tandem
parking for the club. In addition, the applicant is able to meet the requirements of
the Town Code by providing valet services. A recent example of a requirement
for valet parking in conjunction with tandem parking spaces is the Austria Haus,
When the Vail Gateway was originally approved, tandem parking was allowed as
parl of the 93 spaces which were required. However, valet service was provided.
Staff does not believe that the current configuration as identified on the parking
management plan is acceptable. There are solutions thal would allow the
proposal to meet the Town Code.
Staff has numerous concerns regarding the proposed parking configuration.
Primarily, the intent of providing adequale parking is lo ensure that the needs of
the development have been met. The parking requiremenls of the Town Code
were recently amended as part of an overall parking study. Staff believes that
the applicant should be required and is able to provide parking which meets the
Town Code. In addition, staff believes that it is necessary to meet the
requirements of the Town Code so as not to displace the parking onto other
properties. Staff does not believe that tandem parking, withoul valet service, is
acceptable for the uses proposed.

BACKGROUND AND HISTORY OF THE GATEWAY
The Vail Gateway was originally the site of the Amoco Station, previously zoned
Heavy Service (HS). In 1988, an application was received to rezone the property
from HS to CC1 and approve a Special Development District to facilitate the
developmenl of a mixed-use project which included retail, restauranl,
commercial, office, and residential uses. Special Development District No.21
(Vail Gateway) was approved by Ordinance No. 9 in '1988. The expressed
purpose of adopting SDD #21 was to allow for the rezoning of the property from
HS to CC1. CC1 zoning and SDD lt21 were adopted to allow for a mix of uses
on the property and to allow the development to exceed building height, as
othenrvise prescribed in the CC1 zone district. Public benefits realized through
the adoption of Ordinance No. 9 include, among other things, a pedestrian
walkway on the north and west sides of the property, and substantial landscape
improvements to the Vail Road and South Frontage Road intersection. The
lollowing briefly outlines the Vail Gateway's development history:
and
the
ilt_
Januarv 3. 1988-An applicalion is submitted to lhe Town of Vail Community
Development Department on behalf of Mr. Leo Palmer proposing the
establishment of SDD #21 . The establishment of the Districl would reouire a
rezoning of the property from HS (gas station) to CC1.
Februarv 22. 1988 - The Planning & Environmenlal Commission held a public
hearing to discuss lhe SDD proposal and the rezoning. In their memorandum to
the Commission staff expressed a concern with the proposed bulk and mass of
the building and its effects on views to Vail Mountain.
The staff further expresses to the Commission that according to the initial work
done by Eldon Beck on building heights for the gas slation, "The Eldon Beck
study does show that building heights for the development of this parcel of land
should reach one to tvvo stories." The applicant was requesting a maximum
building height of 62 feet.
March 9, 1988 - Jeff Winston, the Town's Urban Design Consultant, addresses
the Commission. In his presentation, Jeff offered a brief history on the.
development of the view corridor for the Vail Village Inn area.
The following is the staff recommendation on the request to establish SDD #21 :
Staff generally supports the mixed use concept proposed in this
redevelopment plan and the concept ol the rezoning to CCI . Although it
may be considered spot zoning, we feel that the uses are compatible with
the adjacent Vail Village lnn Special development District and are
appropriate for this location within the community. However, we are not
supportive of the uses proposed without the left turn lane and elimination
of the surface parking as well as adequate parking provisions. We feel
that the general concept of development proposed by the applicant is
appropriate and believe that there is an opportunity here to provide an
exciting and aesthetically pleasing entrance into Vail.
The Community Development Department staff had, however, major concerns
with the project as proposed. Staff felt the issues of bulk and mass, height,
setbacks, view corridor encroachment and parking were all important issues that
must be addressed. The slaff recommendation for this project was for the
Planning Commission to table and allow the staff and the applicant to work
logether to try to resolve some of lhese issues. Staff believed that with adequate
resolution of the aforementioned issues, staff could support this project.
However, as presented, staff believed there were major issues that needed to be
addressed and could not support this project as presented. Although many of
the uses of the Heavy Service District would certainly not be acceptable in this
location, staff felt thal the existing service station was appropriate lo this location.
. Staff believed that SDD #21 as proposed, presented impacts that were not
acceptable. lf the applicant wished to move forward with this project as
proposed, staff recommendation was for denial.
The Commissioners voted 3-4 against a recommendation of approval to the
Town Council. The dissenting votes were Hopkins, Schultz, Donovan and
Oslerfoss.

Aoril 5. 1988 - The Vail Town Council approved Ordinance No. 9, Serles o/
1.988, An Ordinance Rezoning Lot N And A Portion Of Lot O, Block 5D, Vail
Village First Filing From Heavy Seruice District To Commercial Core t An
Establishing Special Development Distict No. 21. In part, the ordinance allowed
a maximum height of 54 feet for the Vail Gateway Plaza building and the further
encroachment of a building into the view of Vail Mountain from the four-way
intersection.
Julf 29, 1996 - An application is submilted to the Town of Vail Community
Development Department, on behall of Charles R. Lipcon, proposing a major
amendment to SDD #21. The purpose ol the amendmenl is lo enctose an
existing deck (460 sq. ft.) on the east side of the upper level of Condominium
Unil No. 5.
Auoust 26. 1996 - The Planning & Environmental Commission held a public
hearing to evaluate the major amendment request.
The Building Height Plan shows lhe Gateway Building at 5 stories, and indicates
that it does not conform to the plan (story height at 9 feet). The elevation of the
existing ridge was 54 feet above grade along the south elevation. The applicant
wished to extend this ridge line approximalely 28 feet to the east. This raised the
height of the building in the notch area. Staff believed that the additional height
was not detrimental given the mass, bulk and height of the entire building.
Following discussion of the request, the Planning & Environmental Commission
voted unanimously (7-0) lo recommend approval of the major amendmenl
request to the Vail Town Council.
October 1.1996-The VailTown Council adopted Ordinance No. 17, Series of
1996, An Ordinance Providing For The Major Amendment Ot Special
Development District No. 21, Vail Gateway; Amending An Approved
Development Plan For Special Development District No. 21 ln Accordance With
Chapter 18.40 Ot The Vail Municipal Code. In adopting the ordinance, the
Council found, in part, that it:
...Meets the Design Standards as set forth in Section 18.40 of the
Municipal Code... and that the major SDD amendment request is in
compliance with the goals and objectives of the Vail Comprehensive PIan,
as well as the purpose section of the SDD Overlay Zone District.
ZONING ANALYSIS
Please refer to the attached analysis.
REZONING REQUEST-CRITERIA iOR EVALUATION
The applicant is requesting a rezoning the Vail Gateway, located at 12 Vail Road,
a portion of Lots O and N, Block 5D, Vail Village 1't Filing, from Commercial Core
1 (CC1) to Commercial Service Center (CSC). The property, should the rezoning
be approved, would then be zoned SDD #21 with an underlying zoning of CSC.
V.
The criteria for a rezoning are described in Chapter 12-3-7 of the Town Code and
discussed in detail below:
A. ls the existing zoning suitable with the existing land use on the site
and adjacent land uses?
The Gateway is cunently zoned SDD #21, with an underlying zoning ofCC1. Ordinance No. 9, Series of 1988, approved the special
development district, rezoning the property from Heavy Service (HS) to
CC1, and setting forth the development standards for the property. With
the underlying zoning of GC1, the uses of the property are limited by
horizontal zoning. The only devialion from the current underlying zoning
is from the height requirement.
The purpose of the CCl zone district is:
The Commercial Core 1 District is intended to provide sites and to
maintain the unique character of the Vail Village commercial area,
with its mixture of lodges and commercial establishments in a
predominantly pedestrian environment. The Commercial Core 1
District is intended to ensure adequate light, air, open space, and
other amenities appropiate to the permitted types of buildings and
uses. Ihe District regulations in accordance with the Vail Village
Urban Design Guide Ptan and Design Considerations prescibe
site development standards that are intended to ensure the
maintenance and preservation af the tightly clustered
arrangements of buildings fronting on pedestrianways and public
greenways, and to ensure continuation of the building scale and
architectural qualities that distinguish the Village.
The applicant has requested a rezoning of the underlying zoning from
CC1 to CSC. The deviations from the CSC zone dislrict include: GRFA,
setbacks, landscape area, and building height. The purpose of the CSC
zone district is:
The Commercial Seruice Center District is intended to provide
sites for general shopping and commercial facilities seruing the
Town, Wether with limited multipleJamily dwelling and lodge
uses as may be appropriate without interfering with the basic
commercial functions of the District. The Commercial Service
Center District is intended to ensure adequate light, air, open
space, and other amenities appropiate to permitted types of
buildings and uses, and to maintain a convenient shopping center
environment for permifted commercial uses.
There are two properties currenlly zoned CSC; Crossroads and the
Weststar Bank Building (SDD #23 with underlying zoning of CSC). CSC
differs from CC1 primarily in that it does not vary the allowable and
conditional uses in a building by story. ln addition, CSC has different
development standards than CC'l .
Staff believes that the CSC zone districl is compatible with the existing
and proposed uses on the site and with adjacent land uses. Adjacenl
properties include the proposed Vail Plaza Hotel East (Special
Developmenl District with underlying zoning of Public Accommodation),
the proposed Vail Plaza Hotel West (Special Development District with
underlying zoning of Public Accommodation), and the Alpine Standard
Stalion (Heavy Service).
CSC allows for similar uses to lhe CC1 zone district, but does not have
the same horizontal zoning requirements. The CSC zone district has
been attached lor reference. Stalf does not believe that the uses allowed
by CSC will have any detrimental effecls on adjacent uses. However, the
development standards prescribed by the CSC zone district tend to be
more stringent that those of CC1 . As a result, the deviations required
from the underlying zoning will be greater. The deviations are discussed
more fully in Section Vl of this memorandum.
Staff believes that due to its distance from the Village Core, CC1 is not
appropriate for this site. With the designation of "Mixed Use" in the Vail
Village Master Plan, staff believes that CSC is more appropriate for the
VailGateway
B. ls the amendment presenting a convenient workable relationship
with land uses consistent with municipal objectives?
Slaff believes that the change from CC1 to CSC presents a convenient
workable relationship consistent with municipal objectives. The change in
zoning allows for similar uses lo what is allowed with CCl, but allows
greater flexibility in lhe location of these uses. In addition, the allowable
density of the property is reduced from 13 units to 9 units, the allowable
GRFA is reduced from 80% lo 40/", site coverage is reduced lrom 80% to
75%, landscape area is increased from no requiremenl lo 20./", and the
required lot area is increased from 5,000 sq. ft. to 20,000 sq. ft. Sta{f
believes it is necessary to state that the change lrom CC1 to. CSC does
result in a struclure that does nol conform to the development standards
as prescribed by CSC zoning. However, an amendment to the SDD
allows for devaitions from lhe development slandards provided that the
public benefits of the proposal outweigh any adverse effects of the
proposed deviations. This process is described in Section Vl of this
memorandum.
C. Does the rezoning provide for the growth of an orderly viable
community?
Because CSC does not include horizontal zoning, but allows for many of
the same uses as CC1, staff believes that CSC will provide for the growth
of an orderly, viable community. The lack of tenants in the Vail Gateway
indicates that the uses allowed under CC1 are nol viable in this location.
Staff believes that the uses proposed with CSC zoning will be more
viable. However, because the uses of the building have gone from retail
D.
and restaurant uses to office uses, there will be a loss of potential sales
tax revenue. CSC does allow the flexibility {or these uses to return.
ls the change consistent with the Land Use Plan?
The Vail Land Use Plan identifies the Vail Gateway as paft of the Vail
Village Masler Plan, which is discussed in detail below. Staff has
identified the following goals and objectives from the Vail Land Use Plan
which staff believes are applicable lo this proposal:
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment,
maintaining a balance between residential, commercial
and recreational uses to serve both the visitor and the
permanent resident.
1.3 The quality of development should be maintained and
u pg raded when ever poss i bl e.
1.12 Vait shoutd accommodate most of the additionat growth in
existing developed areas (infill areas).
2.2 The ski area owner, the business community and the Town
leaders should work together closely to make existing
facilities and the Town function more efficiently.
2.8 Day skiers need for parking and access should be
accommodated through creative solutions such as;
lncreased busing from out of town.
Expanded points of access to the mountain by
adding additional base portals.
Continuing to provide temporary surface parking.
Addition of structured parking.
3.4 Commercial growth should be concentrated in existing
commercial areas to accommodate both local and visitor
needs.
3.5 Entertainment oriented business and cultural activities
should be encouraged in the core areas to create diversity.
More nighttime buslnesses, on-going events and
sanctioned "street happenings" should be encouraged.
4.1 Future commercial development should continue to occur
primarily in gxisting commercial areas. Future commercial
development in the Core areas needs to be carefully
controlled to facilitate access and delivery.
4.2 lncreased density in the Core areas is acceptable so long
as the existing character of each area is preserved
thorough implementation of the Urban Design Guide Plan.
a,l

4.3 The ambiance of Vail Village is important to the identity of
Vail and should be preserued. (scale, alpine character,
small town feeling, mountains, natural setting, intimate
si ze, cos m opol itan fe e I i ng, e nvi ro n me ntal qu al ity. )
4.4 The connection between the Village Core and Lionshead
should be enhanced through:
a) lnstallation of a new type of. people mover.b) lmproving the pedestrian system with a creatively
designed connection, oriented toward a nature
walk, alpine garden, and/or sculpture plaza.c) New development should be controlled to limit
commercial uses.
5.1 Additionat residentiat growth should continue to occur
primarily in existing, platted areas and as appropriate in
new areas where high hazards do not exist.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made available
through private efforts, assisted by limited incentives,
provided by the Town of Vail with appropriate restrictions.
5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the marketplace
demands far a full range of housing types.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be preserved
and upgraded. Additional employee housing needs shouldbe accommodated at varied sites throughout the
community.
The Vail Village Master Plan identifies the property as "Mixed Use". The
Vail Village Master Plan defines "mixed use" as
This category includes the "historic" Village core and properties
near the pedestrianized streets of the Village. Lodging, retail, and
a limited amount of office use are found in this category. With
nearly 270,000 sq. ft. of retail space and approximately 320
residential units, the mixed use character of these areas is a maior
factor in the appeal of the Vail Village.
Specifically regarding the Gateway property, the Vail Village Master Plan,
in part, states: "lf existing approval expires this sile should be sludied to
determine best use."
Staff has identified the following goals and objectives from the Vail Village
Master Plan which effect this proposal:
tl
Goal #1 - Encourage high quality redevelopment while preserving
the unique architectural scale of the Village in order to
sustain ifs sense of community and identity.
1.2.1 Objective: Encourage the upgrading and
redevelopment of residential and commercial
facilities.
Goal #2 - To foster a strong tourist industry and promote year-
around economic health and viabilty for the Village and for
the community as a whole.
2.1 Objective: Recognize the variety ot land uses
found in the 10 sub-areas throughout the Village
and allow for development that is compatible with
these established land use pafterns.
2.4 Objective: Encourage the development of a
variety of new commercial activity where
compatible with existing land uses.
2.5 Objective: Encourage the continued upgrading,
renovation, and maintenance of existing lodging
and commercial facilities to better serue the needs
of our guests.
2.6 Objective: Encourage the development of
affordable housing units through the efforts of the
private sector.
Goal #5 - lncrease and improve the capacity, efficiency, and
aesthetics of the transpoftation and circulation system
throughout the Village.
5.1 Objective: Meet parking demands with public
and private parking facilities.
5.1.3 Policy: Seek locations for additional
structured public and private pa*ing.
Staff believes that the rezoning from CC1 to CSC is consistent with the
goals and objectives o{ the Vail Land Use Plan and the Vail Village
Master Plan.
THE SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT MAJOR AMENDMENT PROCESS
The applicanl is also requesting a major amendment to SDD #21 . The only
deviation from underlying zoning when the Gateway was originally approved with
CC1 as the underlying zone district was from the height restrictions. The public
benefit identified for the SDD was a pedestrian walkway on the north and west
sides of the property. At the time, no employee housing units were required.
vt.
12
With the major amendment to the SDD, no exlerior changes are proposed. The
addition of GRFA and lhe change in the underlying zoning from CC1 to CSC
require a major amendment to the SDD. lt is important to note that with the
change from CC1 to CSC, the deviations from the underlying zone district of
CSC are greater than those from CCl. Specifically, the deviations are lor GRFA;
setbacks, building height, and landscape area. According to Section 12-9A-9 of
the Zoning Regulations:
Development standards inctuding lot area, site dimensions, setbacks,
height, density control, site coverage, Iandscaping and parking shall be
determined by the Town Council as part of the approved devetopment
plan with consideration of the recommendations of the Ptanning and
Environmental Commission. Before the Town Council approves
development standards that deviate from the underlying zone district, it
should be determined that such deviation provides benefits to the Town
that outweigh the adverse effects of such deviation. This determination is
to be made based on evaluation of the proposed special development
districfs compliance with the design criteria outlined in Section 12-94-8 of
this Article.
Chapter 12-9 of the Town of Vail Municipal Code provides for the amendment of
existing Special Development Districts in the Town of Vail. According to Section
12-gA-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 preserve the natural
and scenic features of open space areas; and to further the overall goals
of the community as stated in the Vail Comprehensive Plan- An approved
development plan for a Special Development District, in cortjunction 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 12-9A-2, a major amendment lo a Special Development
District is defined as,
Any proposal to change uses; increase gross residentia! floor area;
change the number of dwelling or accommodation units; modify, enlarge
or expand any approved special development distict (other than "minor
amendments' as defined in this Section), except as provided under
Sections 12-15-4, 'lnterior Conversions", or 12-15-5, "Gross Residential
Floor Area (250 Ordinance)" ol this Title.
The Municipal Code provides a framework for the amendment of an established
Special Development District. According to the Municipal Code, prior to site
preparation, building construction, or other improvements to land within a Special
Development Districl, there shall be an approved development plan for the
Special Development District. The approved development plan establishes
13
requirements regulating development, uses and activity within the Special
Develooment District.
Upon final review of a proposed major amendment of an existing Special
Development District, 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 Section 12-16-6 of
the Municipal Code. The Town Council's consideration of the Special
Development District shall be in accordance wilh the provisions of the Municipal
Code and approved by two readings of an ordinance.
An approved development plan is
development, uses and activities of
principal document in guiding the
Special Development District. The
development plan shall contain all relevant 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 elevalions, vicinity plan,
parking plan, preliminary open space/landscape plan, densities and permitted,
conditional and accessory uses.
The determination of permitted, conditional 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 lo those permitted, conditional
and accessory uses in the property's underlying zone district.
The Municipal Code provides nine design criteria, which shall be used as the
principal criteria in evaluating the merits of the proposed major amendment to a
Special Development Districl. lt shall be the burden of the applicant to
demonstrate that submiltal 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 staff has addressed each of the nine SDD review criteria
below:
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.
No changes are proposed to the exterior of the building. Therefore, staff
does not believe that this criterion applies to lhis major amendmenl to the
SDD. However, there are some general maintenance concerns that staff
has identified and believe should be conditions of approval:
'l . All of the signs for the businesses that are no longer located within
the building shall be removed.2. The sidewalk on the north side of the building shall be repaired3. The llood lights on the northwest corner of the building shall be
removed.
the
the
14
B.
4. The stairwell on the east side of the building shall be cleaned and
repaired.5. The lattice on the east side of the buibing shall be repaired.
Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and
workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
The proposal to redevelop the Vail Gateway include lhe conversion of
existing retail and reslauranl space into office space, the addition of two
dwelling units, and the addition of a privale parking club. The density
allowed by CSC zoning is 18 dwelling units per acre, or g dwelling units
allowed on this site. The applicant is proposing 9 dwelling units, which is
equal to 16.2 dwelling units per acre. Stalf believes that these uses are
compatible with the surrounding uses, which include the Vail Plaza Hoter
East (proposed), the Vail Plaza Hotel West (proposed), and the Alpine
Standard. The Vail Plaza Hotel East is proposed at 12.7 dwelling units
per acre. The Vail Plaza Hotel West is proposed at 6.47 dwelling units
per acre. Currently, the HS zoning of the Alpine Standard does not allow
any residential uses on the site. The conditional use permits required for
the dwelling units and private parking club are discussed in Section Vll of
this memorandum.
Emplovee Housinq Requirements
As indicated in a number of the goals and objectives of the Town's Master
Plans, providing affordable housing lor employees is a critical issue which
should be addressed through the planning process for Specia.
Development District proposals. In reviewing lhe proposal for employee
housing needs, staff relied on lhe Town of Vail Employee Housing
Report. This report has been used by the staff in the past to evaluate
employee housing needs. The guidelines contained within the report
were used most recently in the review of the Vail Plaza Holel West
developmenl proposal.
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.
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
"new" 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 dilferent percentage of affordable housing a developer must
provide for the "new" employees. For example, Telluride requires
developers to provide housing tor 40"/" (0.a0) of lhe "new" employees,
Aspen requires that 60% (0.60) of the "new" employees are provided
't5
housing and Whistler requires that 100% (1.00) of lhe "new" employees
be provided housing by the developer. In comparison, Vail has
conservatively determined that developers shall provide housing for 15%
(0.15) or 30% (0.30) of the "neW'employees resulting from commercial
development. When a project is proposed to exceed the density allowed
by the underlying zone district, the 30% (0.30) figure is used in the
calculation. lf a project is proposed at, or below, the density allowed by
the underlying zone districl, the 15"/o (0.15) ligure is used. This special
development district major amendmenl proposal exceeds the density
(GRFA is considered a measure of density) permitted by the underlying
zone district, and therefore, the 30% figure shall be used. However, for
the existing development which did not exceed density, the 15% figure is
used.
EMPLOYEE HOUSING GENERATION ANALYSIS
When SDD #21 was originally approved, no employee housing units were
required. The applicanl is proposing no employee housing units in
conjunction with this major SDD amendment. Staff believes that there is
a defined town objective addressing the public need for employee
housing. Recent SDDs and SDD major amendments have required
EHUs, including, but not limited to:
SDD #35-Austria Haus: 7 EHUs
SDD #31 -Golden Peak House: 2 EHUs
SDD # 7- Maniott Mark: 6 EHUs
SDD #30 - VAC: 5 EHUs
SDD #36 - Vail Plaza Hotel West: 14 EHUs
The staff analysis below indicates the top, the middle and the bottom of
the ranges recommended by the Town ol Vail Employee Housing Report,
as well as a staff recommended figure which was used in determining the
employee housing needs of the Vail Gateway. Staff is providing the
Employee Housing Generation Analysis for the existing development and
the proposed changes:

Staff Recommended Ranoe Calculations:
The analysis above has been provided for comparison and discussion
purposes. Staff acknowledges that employee numbers determined as a
result of the methodology may be inconsistent with numbers generated
for olher redevelopment proposals. However, in the absence of any other
codified or reasonably accepted methodology, or a proposal from the
applicant, this approach was used as a basis for discussions. Arguably,
slaff agrees that other methods of determination could be used to
calculate employee housing needs. Most importantly, statf believes lhat
lhe Town of Vail has consistently required applications for redevelopment
within Special Developmenl Districts to mitigale development impacts.
Staff acknowledges that number of units required for final approval has
not always equaled the number determined as a result of the employee
generalion analysis.
Because of the change in uses, staff believes that the proposal for the
Vail Gateway will reduce the number of employees generated by 16.87
employees (from 84.441o 67.67). To be consistent in the application of
requiring employee housing to mitigate development impacts and to
address the identified public interesl, staff recommends thal the applicant
for the Vail Gateway proposal be required to provide employee housing.
Staff acknowledges that there will be an overall reduction in the potential
number of employees on the Vail Gateway site as a resull of this
redevelopment proposal. However, staff recognizes thal the original SDD
approval did nol require, nor did the applicant provide, any employee
housing. Fundamenlally, staff believes that this applicant should be
required lo address the impacls of developmenl on this site. The exact
number of units or beds to be required should be discussed.
The Vail Gateway redevelopment application proposes to exceed the
allowable density (GRFA is a measure of density) on the site, and
therefore, the 30% multiplier was used in the determination of employee
generation. Under CC1 zoning, the Vail Gateway did not exceed density,
so the 15% multiplier was used. The difference in the number of
employees requiring housing is 7.6. This is based on the use of the Vail
Gateway as professional offices that generate the need for year-round
employees.
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
accommodaling three to four employees. These figures are consistent
18
c.
with the requirements for the Type lll employee housing units outlined in
the MunicipalCode.
The applicant is proposing no employee housing units in conjunction with
the proposal. Again, staff recommends that il is necessary lor the
applicant to provide employee housing to be'consistenl in our application
of requiring the mitigation of development impacts.
Overall, staff believes that the density and uses proposed by the applicant
for the Vail Gateway do not conflict with lhe compatibility, efficiency or
workability of the sunounding uses and/or activities.
Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in
Chapter 12-10 ol the Town of Vait Municipat Code.
Parkinq
The applicant exceeds the paking requirement as outlined in Chapter 12-
10 of lhe Town Code. According to Chapter 12-10, the applicant is
required to provide 47 parking spaces. According to the existing plans on
file with the office of Community Developmenl, there are 93 spaces in the
parking structure. On site, there are currently 92 spaces in the parking
structure. Of these, 42 are tandem spaces. Tandem spaces are allowed
for valet parking and tor residential parking. The applicant is proposing
that the private parking club will utilize 39 parking spaces. The current
parking requirement for dwelling units al the Vail Gateway is 1.4 per unit.
However, the applicant is allocating 2 spaces per unit. Valet services will
be provided. Staff is recommending a condilion for a parking plan that
clearly indicates which uses specific parking spaces will be reserved for.
According to the Town Code, the proposed uses require 47 parking
spaces. There are currently 92 spaces in the parking structure. The
applicant is proposing that a maximum of 39 of the spaces will be used
lor the parking club, leaving a remainder of 6 spaces. This will allow for
any future expansions or changes in use that would require additional
parking to be accommodated on site.
Loadinq
The applicant is not currently proposing any changes to the loading
situation at the Vail Gateway. However, there is a condition of approval
for SDD #6, Vail Village Inn, which states:
That the Developer coordinate efforts with the owners of the
Gateway Building to ueate a below ground access for loading and
delivery to the Gateway from the Vail Plaza Hotel to resolve
potential loading and delivery concerns at the Gateway. lf a
coordinated effort can be reached the Develooer shall submit
revised plans to the Town of Vait Community Development
Department for review and approval, prior to the issuance of a
building permit,
Staff recommends that a similar condition be placed on the Vail Gateway
regarding a combined loading and delivery system for the Vail Gateway
19
D.
and the Vail Plaza Hotel. This will eliminate loading and delivery traffic
from Vail Road, locating it instead on lhe Frontage Rd. and addresses the
concern of the Gateway residential owners that the currenl loading and
delivery facility for the Gateway has negative impacts on their enjoyment
of the residential units. The implementation of the recommended
condition may cause a reduction in the number of parking spaces
available for lhe use of the private club.
Conlormity with the appticable elements of the Vail Comprehensive
Plan, Town policies and Urban Design Plan.
A complete analysis of the Vail Land Use Plan and Vail Village Master
Plan are in Section V of this memorandum. The applicant is proposing no
exterior changes as this time.
ldentification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that
affect the property on which the special development district is
proposed.
There are no natural and/or geologic hazards that effect the applicant's
property.
Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions
designed to produce a tunctional development responsive and
sensitive to natural features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality
of the community.
The applicant is not proposing any exterior changes to the building.
Therefore, staff believes that this criterion is not applicable to this
application.
A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off-site traffic circulation.
Staff believes that the existing circulation syslem is appropriate for the
change in use.
Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to
optimize and preserve natural features, recreation, views and
functions.
No exterior changes are proposed. Staff feels that the existing
landscaping and open space are satisfactory.
Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable,
lunctional and efficient relationship throughout the development of
the special development district.
This criterion is not applicable to this project.

vil.CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REVIEW CRITERIA
The issuance of a conditional use permil is required to allow for the residential
dwelling units and the private parking club at the Vail Gateway. The applicant is
proposing a tolal of 9 dwelling units on the site. The applicant is also proposing
that 39 of the parking spaces on site be utilized as part of a private parking club-.
In addition, 240 sq. ft. of the building is allocated to the use of the parking club,
providing guesl services to the club members, including ski storage and
reslrooms. The review criteria for d request of this nature are established by the
Town of Vail Municipal Code. The proposal is subject to the issuance of a
conditional use permit in accordance with the provisions of Title 12, Chapter 16.
For the Planning and Environmental Commission's relerence, the conditional use
permit purpose statement indicates that:
ln order to provide the flexibitity necessary to achieve the objectives of
this title, specified uses are permitted in ceftain districts subject to the
granting of a conditional use permit. Because of their unusual or special
characteristics, condition_al uses require review so that they may be
located properly with respect to the purposes of this title and with respect
to their effects on surrounding properties- The review process prescibed
in this chapter is intended to assure compatibility and harmonious
development between conditional uses and sunounding properties in the
Town at large. Uses listed as conditional uses ln the various districts may
be permitted subject to such conditions and limitations as the Town may
prescibe to insure that the location and operation of the conditional uses
will be in accordance with the development objectives of the Town and
will not be detrimental to other uses or properties. Where conditions
cannot be devised, to achieve these objectives, applications for
conditional use permits shall be denied.
A. Gonsideration of Factors:
1. Relationship and impact of the use on development
objectives of the Town.
Multiple-familv dwellinqs: The eslablishment of a Special
Development District does not allow a proposal to vary the uses of
the underlying zoning. Multiple{amily dwellings are considered a
conditional use in the CSC zone district. The applicant is
proposing 9 dwelling units on the property. Staff has identified lhe
following objectives from the Vail Land Use Plan which stalf
believes are applicable to the conditional use permit request for
the existing and proposed multiple{amily dwellings:
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to
occur primarily in existing, platted areas and as
appropriate in new areas where high hazards do
not exist.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made
available through private etforts, asslsled by limited
21
incentives, provided by the Town of Vail with
appropriate restrictions.
5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the
marketplace demands for a full range of housing
types.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be
preserued and upgraded. Additional employee
housing needs should be accommodated at varied
sites throughout the community.
Staff believes that the multiple-family dwellings meet the
objectives of the Town of Vail. However, stalf believes that it is
necessary to provide employee housing with this development,
Type lll Employee Housing Units should be developed as part of
the new residential GRFA lhat is proposed.
Private club: The applicant is proposing a private parking club
which, if the text amendment to CSC is approved, is considered a
conditional use in the CSC zone district. A similar product can be
seen at Golden Peak. Staff has identified the following objective
from the Vail Land Use Plan which stalf believes are applicable to
the conditional use permil request for the private parking club:
2.8 Day skiers need for parking and access should be
accommodated through creative solutions such as:
a) lncreased busing from out of town.b) Expanded points of access to the mountain
by adding additional base portals.
c) Continuing to provide temporary surface
parking.
d) Addition of structured parking.
In addition, staff has identified the following goals and objectives
from the Vail Village Master Plan which are applicable to this
project:
Goal #5 - lncrease and improve the capacity, efficiency,
and aesthetics of the transportation and circulation system
throughout the village.
5.1 Objective: Meet parking demands with public
and private parking facilities.
5.1.3 Policy: Seek locations for additional
structured public and private parking.
22
4.
Staff believes that the provision of additional private parking
through the parking club is a benefit to the Town of Vail by
eliminating some of the pressure on the public parking facilities.
In addition, the Vail Transportation Master Plan identifies the
following goal:
Retain the private parking supply as an important and
needed element.
Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of populatiqn,
transportation facilities, utilities, schools, parks and
recreation facilities, and other public facilities and public
facilities needs.
Multiole- familv dwellinqs: The additional dwellings are created by
infilling an existing vaulted space within the Vail Gateway. Staff
does not believe that there will be any negative effects of the use
on lighl and air. The density proposed is within the allowable
density for the CSC zone district. CSC allows for 9 dwelling units
on this sile. The applicant is proposinE 9 dwelling units on site.
Stafl does not believe that there will be any adverse effects on lhe
above listed criteria.
Private club: The private parking club will a positive impact on the
above-mentioned criteria. The provision of private parking
lessens the need for additional public parking facilities.
Etfect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion,
automotive and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic
flow and control, access, maneuverability, and removal ol
snow from the streets and parking areas.
Multiole-familv dwellinos: As stated above, the additional dwelling
units will be created by the inlill of an interior space. Statf does
not believe that the additional dwelling units or existing 7 dwelling
units will have any adverse effects on lhe above listed criteria.
Private club: As stated above, staff believes that the private
parking club will be benelicial. lt uses an underutilized parking
structure.
Effec! upon the character of the area in which the proposed
use is to be located, inctuding the scale and bulk 6t tne
proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
Multiple{amilv dwellinos: Staff does not believe that the addition
of 2 dwelling units, nor the existing 7 dwelling unils will have a
negative effect on the character of the area. Adjacent properties
include olher mixed use developments (Vail Plaza Hotel East and
West). While there are no current plans to redevelop the Alpine
23
Standard, discussions with the owner have also indicated that a
redevelopment would include a mixed-use product which would
include residential dwelling unils. Because there are no exlerior
changes proposed, staff does not believe that there will be any
adverse effects on surrounding uses.
Private club: Staff does not believe that lhe private parking club
will have any negative effects on the character of the
neighborhood. The parking spaces cunently exist on site.
B. FINDINGS
The Planning and Environmental Commission shall make the following
findings before granting a condilional use permit:
2. That the proposed location of the use is in accordance with the
purposes of the conditional use permit section of the zoning code
and the purposes of the district in which the site is localed.
2. That the proposed localion ol the use and the conditions under
which it would be operated or maintained would not be detrimental
to lhe public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to
properties or improvements in the vicinity.
3. That the proposed use would comply with each of the applicable
provisions of the conditional use permit section of the zoning
code.
VIII. REVIEW CRITERIA AND FINDINGS FOR ZONING CODE AMENDMENTS
In addition to the rezoning request, the appllcant has requested an amendment
to the Commercial Service Center zone dislrict, allowing private clubs as a
conditional use in the zone district. Currently, the zoning code defines "private"
as 'A use, area, property or facility which is not public," The zoning code
currently allows private clubs as a conditional use in the following zone districts:
Residential Cluster
Low Density Multiple Family
Medium Density Multiple Family
Public Accomniodaioh
Ski Base Recreation
ln addition 1o amending the code to allow for private clubs as a conditional use in
the CSC zone district, staff is alsb proposing a definition of a privale club. This
will allow for greater clarification in other situations. The following amendments
are proposed:
12-7E-4: CONDITIONAL USES:
Private Club
24
' 12-2-2: DEFINITIONS
Private Club: an association of persons and its premises who are
bonafide members paying dues, use of such premises being
restricted to members and their guests.
The review criteria for a request of this nature are established by the Town of Vail
MunicipalCode.
Consideration of Factors:
1. That the proposed amendments are consistent with the
.development objectives of the Town of Vail as stated in the
Vail Land Use Plan.
As a conditional use, the addition of a private club will be subject
to the following review crileria:
1. Belationship and impact of the use on development
objectives of the Town.
2. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of
population, transportation facilities, utilities, schools,
parks and recreation facilities, and other public facilities
and public facilities needs.
3. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to
congestion, automotive and pedestrian safety and
convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the sfreets
and parking areas.
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which the
proposed use is to be located, including the scale and
bulk of the proposed use in relation to surrounding
uses.
The addition of a definition of "private club" will clarify the use in all
situations. Staff believes that this will improve the development
review process for both applicants and staff.
2. That the proposal is consistent and compatible with existing
and potential uses within Vail and generally in keeping with
the character of the Town of Vail.
Again, staff believes that as a conditional use, subject to the
above review criteria by the Planning and Environmental
Commission, private clubs can be reviewed for compatibility with
existing and polential uses within the Town in the CSC zone
district.

II. EMPLOYEE HOUSING
At the Planning and Environmental Commission meeting, lhere was much
discussion regarding requirements for employee housing. While there are no
codified requirements for employee housing in a special development district, the
Planning and Environmental Commission and Town Council have required
employee housing on recent major amendments and new special development
districts. Statf provided an analysis with employee generation rates in the
memorandum that the Planning and Environmental Commission received.
However, the Planning and Environmental Commission felt that the requirement
to provide housing for 8 employees was too stringent. The Planning and
Environmental Commission did state that they believed emptoyee housing
was a necessary component of the major amendment to SDD #21 and
requested that Council further investigate an adequate number. During the
meeting, it was suggested that because one of the deviations from the underlying
zoning is from GRFA, that the employee generation rates should be focused on
that deviation. In effect, the applicant is requesting a deviation from the GRFA
requiremenls of approximately 7,500 sq. ft. This 7,500 sq. ft. of GRFA will be
within 2 new dwelling units:
Multi Family Units = 2 units @ (O.4lunil) = 0.8 employees
0.8 empfoyees * 0.30 multiplier = O.24employees
According to the above calculations, the Planning and Environmental
Commission recommended that the applicant be required to provide deed-
reslricted housing lor 1 employee.

Application Supplement
For Amendments to the
VAIL GATEWAY BUILDING
Town of Vail, Colorado
, June 11,2001
Introduction
The Vail Gateway Building was originally proposed in the late-l980's and dwing the review
ofthe project there was a great deal ofdebate regarding how this parcel ofland should be
developed. The parcel's location at the "gateway''to Vail Village made it a very strategic
parcel of land, however it's physical separation from the Village's pedeshian corridors
presented a number of other challenges. lJltimately the project was approved as Special
Development District No. 21 with an underlying zoning of Commercial Core 1 (CCl) and in
the early 1990's the Gateway Building was opened with a mixture of retail shops,
restaurants and residential condominiums.
Over the past I I years it has become apparent that the retail and restaurant aspects of the
project simply do not work. At the time of this application all restaurant and retail spaces
within the building are vacant. Reasons for the failure of businesses within the building
cannot be athibuted to any one sourc€, however it seems very evident that the site's isolation
from the pedestrian areas along Meadow Drive and the Village core make it difficult to
attract pedestrians to the project. While only one block off of Meadow Drive, the Gateway
Building is apparently too far "offthe beaten path" to sustain retail and restaurant uses.
All commercial space within the building is owned by one entity (the six residential units are
owned by individual owners). In response to the failure ofretail and restaurant uses, the
owner of the commercial space has spent the past year evaluating a variety of different
development programs in an attempt to revitalize what can only be described as a distressed
property. Existing zoning of the property has proven to be a major constraint to assembling
a feasible re-development program for the building.
The fundamental problem with the revitalization of the building has proven to be the CCl
underlying zoning. As with any SDD, the underlying zoning establishes permitted and
conditional uses for the property. The CCI district essentially allows for only retail and
restaurant uses on street level. While this zoning was deemed appropriate for the original
developers concept for the building, history has demonstrated that retail and restaurant uses
are not viable. Due to the limited range of uses permitted on the street level, the CCI zone
district presents a major conshaint to the revitalization of this building.
Vail Gateway Building, Vail, Colorado
Braun Associates. Inc.
Page I
The proposed revitalization of the building is intended to provide viable commercial activity
in this mixed-use area of the Town and would be accomplished primarily by simply
broadening the range of commercial uses permitted within the building. The major elements
of this revitalization proposal include the following:
r A change to underlying zoning in order to allow for office and other commercial uses on
the street level of the building,
o The addition of two residential dwelling units on the third floor,
. Establishment of a "parking club" within the building, and
r All proposed modifications will take place within the existing building, i.e. no
physical expansions of the building are proposed.
The zone change is intended to allow for office use on the street level ofthe building and
will also maintain the mixed-use character of the building. At the same time, this change
will allow for a use (office) that is not dependant upon pedeslrian traffic. Employees,
visitors, and activity will be introduced to the site that at the same time will help support
other retail and commercial businesses in the surrounding area. The parking club concept
was developed in response to the over abundance ofparking already existing on the property
(after accounting for the changes in potential uses, the property will have a surplus of39
parking spaces). The applicant believes that this can be a successful use for the property by
providing guests and residents the opportunity for "close-in" parking and club amenities,
thus reducing demands placed on the town's parking structures. The proposed residential
units on the third floor represent a limited expansion of a land use that has proven to be a
viable use on the site. Total project density will be within the density levels originally
approved by SDD No. 21.
The proposed re-development package, taken as a whole, provides a win-win solution for
both the owner of the building and the community.
In order to allow for these changes, the following five applications have been submitted;
r Change to the underlying zoning from Commercial Core 1 (CCl) to Commercial
Service Center (CSC). This change will allow for office uses on the ground floor of
the building. The CSC district is a more appropriate zoning for the property based
on the Town's Land Use Plan and Vail Villaee Master Plan.
o Major amendment to SDD No. 21. This amendment will allow for minor changes to
the development plan and to development standards and also acknowledge the
change to the underlying zone district.
o Zornng text amendment to ihe Commercial Service Center zone district. This
amendment will allow for "orivate clubs" as a conditional use.

II.Rezoning from Commercial Core 1 to Commercial Service Center
The change in underlying zoning from Commercial Core 1 to Commercial Service Center is
proposed in order to allow for a wider range ofuses on the property, specificaliy the
introduction of office uses on street level. With the exception of the "horizontal-use
zoning" found in the CCI district, there are very few differences in permitted and
conditional in the CCl and CSC districts. There are some slight differences in the
development standards (i.e. setbacks, building height, etc.) of these two disfficts. However,
SDD No. 21 establishes development standards for this property and as such, any
differences between the developrnent standards of CC1 and CSS are academic.
The only other site in Vail currently zoned CSC is the Crossroads Plaza. Crossroads is
proximate to the Vail Gateway property and also has a very similar context to Vail Gateway.
Both sites are located along the Frontage Road and both are located on the periphery of Vail
Village. Both properties have been developed as mixed-use projects with office, retail and
residential uses.
When the Gateway Building was originally proposed the property was zoned Heavy
Service:ind was occupied by a gas station. Not long after the Gateway Building was
approved, the Vail Village Master Plan (VVMP) was adopted. This Plan designated the
Gateway site as "mixed use". The Plan also defined a portion of the Village as
Commercial Core I and the Gateway Building was not included within this area. As
such, the current CC1 zoning is in conllict with the land use designation of the VVMP.
The proposed change to CSC would be consistent with the WMP's mixed-use
designation and bring the property into greater compliance with the Plan.
The criteria which the Town uses to evaluate a rezoning request include:
Is the proposed zoning suitable with the existing land uses on the site and
adjacent land uses?
Response:
The uses listed in the CSC zone district are nearly the sante as tltose contained in
the CCI district. The location of uses within the building dffirs in that the CSC
zone allows ffice uses on any level of a huilding. In terms of compatibility, the
CSC zone district is consistent and complementury of the uses located on-site and
on neighboring properties. The proposed CSC zoning will continue to allow
mixed uses consistent with the Vail Villase Master Plan and the Vail Land Use
Plan.
Is the amendment preventing a convenient workable relationship with land
uses consistent with municipal objectives?

Response:
The proposed CSC zone district will provide for mixed-use development
consistent with the Vail Yillage Mast* Plan. Byfurthering the goals of the
WMP, this proposal is consistent with municipal objectives.

3) Does the zoning provide for the growth of an orderly, viable community?
Response:
Ihe proposed CSC zone district will providefor orderly growth by allowingfor
uses that are consistent with Town goals. This zone change will also allow the
owner greater flexibilily in the range of land uses that will be permissible on the
property. In doing so, this will providefor a more viable property and a more
viable community.
4\ Is the change consistent with the Land Use Plan?
Responsel
Tlte proposal complies with the Land Use Plan and the Vail Village Master Plan and
specifically the following po licies :
Vail Land Use Plan:
1. 1 Vail should continue to $ow in a controlled environment, maintaining a
balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to serve
both the visitor and the permanent resident.
1 .3 The quality of development should be maintained and upgraded whenever
possible.
1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (infill areas).
2.2 The ski a.rea owner, the business community and the Town leaders should
work together closely to make existing facilities and the Town function
more effectively.
3.4 Commercial growth should be concentrated in existing commercial areas
to accommodate both local and visitor needs.
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in
existing, platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high hazards
do not exist.

ilI. Maior Amendment to Special Development District No. 2l
The Vail Gateway Building was developed in accordance with the provisions of Special
Development District No. 21. An amendment to SDD No. 21 is necessaryto acknowledge
the change in underlying zoning and to allow for one change to the previously approved
development plan.
Physical changes to the building are limited to interior modifications only. No modifications
are proposed to the exterior ofthe building. As such, there are no changes to building
height, setbacks, site coverage, etc. Iaterior changes include the proposed change ofuses,
the addition of two new dwelling units and the addition of 4,723 square feet of GRFA. Of
these three changes, only the addition of GRFA requires an amendment to the existing SDD
(the potential change ofuses is addressed by the proposed change in underlying zoning and
the addition of two dwelling units does not require an amendment because the existing SDD
allows for up to 12 dwelling units and there are only six units currently on the property).
SDD No. 21 currently allows for 13,000 square feet of GRFA. Proposed modifications to
the building would increase this number to 17,160, or an increase of 4,160 square feet. The
vast majority of this new GRFA is a result of converting existing commercial square footage
to GRFA. Of the new GRFA proposed, only 963 square feet of the 4,160 square feet is
actually new floor area. This new floor area is created by infilling the mezzanine space on
the third floor in the old Michael's Restaurant.
The proposed amendments to the development plan are in conformance with the Special
Development District review criteria, as applicable to this application, as described below:
A. Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environmen!
neighborhood and adjacent properties relative to architectural design,
scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones, identity, character, visual
integrity and orientation.
Response:
The bulk and scale ofthe project are already defined by the existing
building and therefore the proposed amendments do not haye an impact on
bulk and mass.
B. Uses, activitv and density which provide a compatible, efficient and
workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
Response:
This re-development plan provides for a mixture of ffice, retail,
restaurant, service, and residential uses on the property. The building is
located in a "mixed use" area idenffied by the Vail Village Master. The
Vail Gateway Building, Vail, Colorado

Page l0
uses located on adjacent properties; residential, lodging, retail, and
ffices, are compatible wirhlhe proposed development progranx.
C. Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in
Chapter l2-10 of the Town of Vail Municipal Code.
Response:
All existing on-site parking and loadingfacilities will rentain unchanged.
The proposed changes to uses within the building will, however,
significantly reduce the needfor parking and loading and delivery
facilities. Excess parking spaces are proposed to be utilized as a parking
club. Refer to the attached CUP application for this club.
D. Conformity with the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive
Plan, Town policies and Urban Design Plan.
Response:
There are no changes proposed to the exterior ofthe building and as such
this criteria is not relevant.
E. Identification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that
affect the property on which the special development district is
proposed.
Response:
The proposed amendment has no impact on this criterion.
F. 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 ofthe
commutrity.
Response:
There are no changes proposed to the exterior ofthe building or the site
and as such this criteia is not relevant
G. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off-site traffic circulation.
Response:
There are no changes proposed to the exterior of the building or site and
as such this criteria is not relevant. It is anticipated however, that the
proposed changes to the building will result in significantly less vehicular
trffic to andfrom the site. This is primarily due to the elimination of

fV. Text Amendment to Commercial Service Center Allowins Private Clubs
A text amendment to the Commercial Service Center zone district is proposed to allow for
"private clubs" as a conditional use. Subject to approval of this text amendment, it is the
intention of the applicant to gain approval of a conditional use permit for a private club at
the Gateway Building. This club would be established to utilize the excess parking spaces
within the Gateway Building. Refer to the attached CUP application for additional
information on this club.
"Private clubs" are currently listed as conditional uses in the following zone districts:
Residential Cluster,
Low Density Multiple-Family,
Medium Density Multiple-Family,
High Density Multiple-Family,
Public Accommodatioq and
Ski Base Recreation..
Examples of private clubs in Vail include the Vail Athletic Club, the Cascade Club, the
Passport Club and the Vail Village Club (now closed). The Passport Club at Golden Peak is
a recent example where the Town approyed a conditional use permit for a private parking
club that was defined as a "private club".
Allowing for "private clubs" as a conditional use provides the Town with the ability to
review a specihc proposal to ensure it is compatible with other uses on the site in the area
before permitting the use on the property. This allows the Town ample control over land
uses while at the same time allowing the landowner flexibility in t}re management and uss of
its property.
The proposed text amendment is consistent with permitted and conditional uses in the CSC
zone district and appropriate for those specific properties currently desigrrated as CSC.

v.Conditional Use Permit - Private Parkins Club
There are currently 89 parking spaces within the Gateway Building. This number of spaces
was provided in response to the uses onginally proposed for the building. Original uses were
dominated by restaurant and retail uses that happen to have relatively high parking ratios.
With the changes proposed by these re-development applications, the amount of required on-
site parking is significantly reduced. The following table summarizes uSes contemplated for
the building and the resulting parking requirement:
Sq. Ft.funits Ratio Parking Required
2.7 spaces/l,000 34
00
Z/wit (2) 16
50
(1) Itis assumed. that all 13,600 squarefeet of commercial space is utilized as ofice. The proposed CSC
zoning will ako allow for retail a d restauro,nt uses within this space. If such uses occur, any increase in
requit'ed parking will reduce the nwnber of spaces available.for the parking club.
(2) Town code requires ) .4 spaces per dwelling unit, however existing decl.arations designate 2 spaces per
untt.
(j) The Parking Club sq. ft. could be increased without increasing the need for parking on the site.
As proposed, 39 "excess" spaces will result on the property. The proposed parking club will
make these spaces available for use, thereby relieving some pressure on the Town's parking
structures. The parking club would have the following features:
Utilization of up to 39 parking spaces,
A small club facility that would provide a lounge area, restrooms, changing room,
storage, etc.
Valet service, which among other things will allow for very efficient use of
previously approved "tandem spaces"
Parking spaces may be sold, leased or made available on a daily fee basis.
A parking club is a relatively new use to the Town of Vail. There is a demand for parking
close to the Village Core and the ski portals that has adequate amenities for users (i.e., locker
rooms, dressing areas, ski storage, etc.). On this property, the parking spaces already exist in
an enclosed structure. Provisions existing within the Town's code could allow for these
excess spaces to be leased. This conditional use permit will essential allow the applicant the
right to provide guest services in conjunction with the parking. This is analogous to efforts
the Town has taken to provide "guest service" facilities such as ski storage and rest rooms at
the Village Structure.
"Conditional" uses are uses that are generally deemed compatible with other permitted and
conditional uses within a zone district, subj ect to compliance with specific review criteria. If

the review criteria are met by the PEC, the use is deemed compatible and approved. The
following are the review criteria for a conditional use permit:
A. Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of the Town.
Response:
The proposed private parking club is consistent with Town objectives to provide a high
level of service to guests and to maximize the use of private parking. This use is
expected to lessen demands on the Town's existing parkingfacilities.
B. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilitieso and other public
facilities and public facilities needs.
Response:
The proposed parking club will have no adverse impacts on these factors. The parking
club is expected to lessen demands on the Town's parking facilities.
C. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the streets and parking area,
Response:
The parking club will generate trffic to the site, however it is anticipated that at full
utilization, each parking space will generate only one in-bound and one out-bound
trip each day. Even with parking club trffic, the overall mix of uses proposedfor
the property will result in a reduction of vehicle trips to the property. This is
primarily due to the reduction in the number of restaurants located in the building.
D. Effect upon the character ofthe area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk ofthe proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
Response:
The proposal does not change the bulk and mass ofthe existing building and ther{ore
has no impact on this criterion.

vL Conditional Use Permit - Residential Uses
A conditional use permit is necessary to allow for the existing and proposed residential uses
on the property. The residential uses have been in place on the property for the last 11 years.
Two additional units are proposed for a total of eight dwelling unils. Issues of compatibility
of residential uses with commercial activities have proven successful on this project and
throughout the Town of Vail. Additionally, the Vail Village Master Plan recognizes this
area as "mixed use", appropriate for a mixture ofretail, office and residential uses.
The followine are the review criteria for a conditional use permit:
Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of the Town.
Response:
The proposed residential dwelling units are consistent with Town objectives and master
plans. The Vail Village Master Plan designates this .gite as "mixed-use". The proposed
density of dwelling uni.ts proposed is less than that originally approved for the site by
SDD #2I (12 units were originally approved, eight are proposed).
Effect ofthe use on light and air, distribution ofpopulation, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities, and other public facilities
and public facilities needs.
Response:
The proposed residential dwelling units will have little, if any, impact on these issues.
C. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and controlo access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the streets and parking area.
Response:
Two proposed dwelling units will have little to no affect on thesefactors. The overall
proposed mix of uses on the property will reduce the number of vehicle trips to the
property. Ihis is primarily due to the reduction in the number of restaurants located in
the building.
D. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk ofthe proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
Response:
The proposal does not change the bulk and mass ofthe existing building and therefore
does not have an impact on this criterion.
