REF: Letter of Agreeurent for Planning Services
on the K-C ?roperty, Tor.m of Vail
Dear Pat:
As per our on-site discussion at the K-C property,
February 27, I'm fo:cvarding this letter as a fo:mof agreement for those services we discussed.
To briefLy reiterate that discussion, I have outlinedthe key iteurs and services you are requesting frmLDG. We will perforr these services in a rel-ativelyshort time frame and for a uaximum fee of $1,500.00.The final product wilL be a sketch plan of the pro-perty, indicating the following items:
1. The property line of the park, the approximatse
acreage and distinguishing features, such as:the pond, Gore Creek, existing vegetation, exist-ing roads and inrmediately adjacent off-site uses.
2. Contour lines approximating the thew gradingtt
which is currently being constructed by theTown. Also, a very rough grading plan indicat-ing what additional- earthwork may need to takeplace to compl-iuent the work being performed
by others. Ihis grading pl-an wi1-l be based onin-the-fiel-d observations and is not intendedto be an accurate representation of the existingconditions. Its prime purpose will be to graphic-ally characterize the ground slopes, benching for
open fields, benns for buffering views and
generall-y portray the land as it needs to be tofacil-itate the proposed park uses.
Mr. Pat Dodson
Town of VallVai1, Colorado 8L657 -2-
3. fhe proposed park uses, in quick sketch form,illustrating autmobile parking, open playfields, pond restoration, walks/trails, play
ground area, natural areas left undisturbed,foot bridges and landscaping.
As stated earl-ier, the final product will be anillustrative sketch plan that will be used by the
Park/Recreation Depattment to graphically comunicateto the Town the potential- recreation value of theproperty. I,Ie also understand that at a later tine(earLy strmmer) a more comprehensive study of thispark will be funded by the Parks Dept. At that time
an accurate site topo map of the existing condj-tionswill be developed. Ttris, along with the otherrelated studies and design, will provide the Townwith a detailed pl-an and cost estimate for the pro-
posed park inprovements.
We are currently developing a base map frmr the topodata you supplied to us l-ast Friday. Once the site
has been substantialLy graded by the contractors that
you are dealing with, we will make a site trip to
conduct our in-the-fiel-d obsenzations. ltris will be
the forxrdation on which we shall base our t'rough
gradingt'plan. From that point, vte can very quickly
prepare the sketch plan and return it to you.
If you agree \'rith the contents of this letter and the
fee maximum, please return one copy of the letter to
our office. lle are proceeding with the work, so
pl-ease notify me imediately if you have any questions.

Mr. John Dobson, l.layor
and
Vall Town CouncllVall, Colorado 81657
Gentl emen:
I am the owner of the 6.463 acre portlon of the Klng Arthur's Court
land at Vall whlch ls under consfderation by the town as deslrable
land to be purchased and converted lnto a park area.
I have walted patlently for over a year now for the Town to cometo a declslon ln thls matter and flew out to Val] ln November to
meet wlth the Councll and dlscuss the matter wlth you.
I understand progress ls belng made and that there ls a strongllkllhood the Town wlll seek voter approval for the flnancfalprovlslons needed to mrke a number of land acqu{sltlons, Jncludlng
thfs one.
I have kept thls property off the market ln an effort to glve
Vall a clear path to acqulrlng it and uslng it for the publlc
good...but am naturally concerned at the wlsdom of doilnq thlsfor what can seem llke an endless strfng of months.
I rrould appreclate some lnd{catlon of the seriousness of your

KACAVALANCHESTUDY
INTRODUCTION
This study of the avalanche path Iocated in the Bighorn area of
the Gore Valley was authorized by Mr. Donald Thomas, one of the owners
of property sited in the valley floor below the avalanche path. This
particu'l ar avalanche path has generated a considerable amount of furor
within the county and the town of Vail over the past two to three
years. The various publ'ic discussions concerning the XAC avalanche
path will not be reviewed herejn, as most are a matter of record.
This study js based upon the physical facts of the s'lide path,
the mountain meteorology producing the snowpack conditions found in
and adjacent to the Gore Creek Va11ey and an avalanche analysis
including definition of modes of the ava'lanche and dynamic consider-
ations. The runout area is defined by a red zone (relatively [jg6 ppe6-
ab'le occurrence with high i;iject pressures) and a blue zone (r"elatively
remote occumence probabi'lity and lower probable impact pressures).
These zones are general 1y in accordance with the Swiss Avalanche
Zoning Planl, although modified somewhat to fit the Gore Valley.
Locati on
The KAC avalanche path is located on the south valley wa'll near
the Bighorn area in the eastern end of the Gore Valley. The Town of
Vail has recently annexed the valley sect'ion including the Bighorn
' area and the runout zone is within the Vail Town limits- The location
of the KAC avalanche is shown on the general location map, Figure I.
I
I
o
Terrai n
The general temain of the Gore Creek Valley is high'ly condqcive
to major climax type avalanches, especial'ly along the south val 1ey
wa11. The ridge line extending from Vail Pass, between Black Gore
and Main Gore Creek on the north and Turkey Creek, Two Elk Creek and
Mi]l Creek on the south, ranges in elevation from 10,800 feet (3300
meters) at VaiI Pass to 11,800 feet (3500 meters) at the point between
the headwaters of Two Elk and Mill Creeks. The valley floor at the
Bighorn area is approx'imately 8500 feet (2600 meters). The valley
shows the U-shaped characteristics of the glacier action during the
Pleistocene epoch and the upper portions of many of the major avalanche
paths have njvation or small "hanging" glacier hollows.
The terrain fonns steep slopes down into the valley with slopes
often exceeding 38 degrees (78 percent) and frequent cliff bands of the
more resistant rock members ('l imestone and sandstone) of the Minturn
Formation.
Geol og.v
The Gore Range is one of the major massive uplift sectjons of
Precambrian crystalline rock typical of the mountainous regions of
Colorado. The uplift fault block forming the main element of the
range 'is flanked by metamorphic ane'isses and by the sedimentary for-
mations extending westward.
The two major faults flanking the range are the Gore Fault which
bears roughly north-northwest and the Frontal Fault which trends
approximately paral 1el .
I
I
3"
t
l
I
I
gI
The Gore Fau'lt can be easily identjfjed in the field' as it is
h'ighly visjble traversing through the area east of the top of Vajl
Pass then northwestward cutting through the Main Gore Creek just upstream
of the confluence with B'lack Gore immediately upstream of the Bighorn
area. l,lestward of the fault, the sedimentary rocks of the Minturn and
Maroon Formations are very evident.
The Maroon Formation confoimably overlies the Minturn Formation.
The Maroon Formation consists of red mudstone or sha'le, siltstone and
fine-grained sandstone. The Minturn Formation can be identified by
the distinctive beds of coarse grained gray to reddish sandstones,
conglomeritic sandstone, sandl and silty shales as well as the pinkish
gray to gray ljmestone beds.
The c'liff bands that are evident a'long both sides of the f'lain
Gore Valley between Bighorn and the Vail Village ienter are the more
res'i stant sandstone and limestone members of the Minturn Formation.
The cliff and diagonally cut..arroyo within the lower end of the KAC
avalanche path are exposed portions of a limestone member of the
formation.
Vegg!ation
The MC avalanche path extends from the valley'floor, 8500 feet
elevation (2600 meters) to near timberl'ine at 11,!00 feet (3400 meters)
and traverses basical'ly three ecosystems. The va1 ley'floor
can be described as a meadow vegetal type system that up until the early
1960's was intermittently used for meadow hay production with some
irrigation and livstock grazing. The ditches are still evident in
the field.

Above the valley froor to an approximate erevation of 9000 feet
(2750 meters) extends a nixed stand of open aspen groves, smal] meadow
pockets (derived p.imarily from geologica] factors) and 'rodgepore pine
or Douglas Fir. There are a few scattered ponclerosa pine in t-his zone.
From 9000 foot upward, the primary vegetal types consist of relative'ry
dense forest of Engelmann Spruce, subalpine fir: and lodgepole pine.
The grassy or shrub-covered meadow area along the bottom of the
ephemeral KAC stream and on the northeast aspect sloping.into the
stream is the relat.ively frequent avalanche release zone.
The valley walls and adjacent mountains throughout the Gore valley
area are part of the l,lhite River National Forest and therefore are
under the jurisdiction of the u.s. Forest service. The current zoning
of the valley .floor within the privatery owned land is shown on Figure
Iv. This indicates the bulk of the valley floor irnmediately adjacent
to the runout area of the ava'lanche is currently zoned "Low Density
Multiple Fami1y". The Bighorn Subdivision, Fifth Addition, is
apparent'ly two-family residential as is Tract c and 0 of the Bighorn
Townhome Subdivision.

HISTORICAL AVALANCHE OCCURRENCES
General Gore Valley
The Gore Va'l 'l ey has seven major climax type ava'lanche paths a'long
the south valley walt that have been identified between the village area
and the confluence of B'lack Gore and l4ain Gore. These avalanche paths
have been named prinarily by Forest Service personnel and from west to
east are as follows:
Cl ubhouse
Frontage Road
Waterfa'll
King Arthur (KAC)
Vai I Meadows
Another large avalanche".path is'located east of the B'lack Gore -
Gore Creek confluence on B'lack Gore that has been designated as the
Siberja SIide. This ava'lanche path may impact the new Interstate I-70
al ignment.
In between these major avalanche paths are numerous small s'l ides
and wet spring type s'lide paths that wi1l require i'lose examination in
case of any potential development in or near the runout areas.
During a heavy wet spring snowfall of May 6-7,1973, many of the wet,
spring-type slides along the valley wa]l slid. Fortunately, these wet
spring type avalanches have minimal runout djstances and no existing
structures were jeopardized.

Discussions with old-time Gore Valley or Minturn residents, as
related by Jim Gregg, U.S.F.S. and l^lhit Borland, indjcate the'last major
climax avalanche cycle in the val1ey was during the 1940's, although some
comments wou'ld indicate major avalanches may have occurred in the early
1950's. Examination of snow course records vrould indicate 1943, 1947
and 1952 as being the most likely years for major avalanche occurrences.
Exact determination of these reported occurrences would require detailed
interviews with older local residents and examination of the meager
climatic data available for that period. While detailed newspaper
research and persona'l intervjews have produced good information on the
history of various major avalanche paths in the San Juans Silverton
dr€d2, it is doubtful that local newspapers in Eag'te County wou'l d have
included the same detail, since the Vail Pass Highway, U.S.6, is relatively
new (1930's) and few of the local ranchers "wintered" in the Gore Val 1ey.
K A C Avalanche
Detai'led examjnation of the tree grorvth in and adjacent to the KAC
slide path indicates major avlianche act'ivity within the past 30-35 years.
Other najor avalanches have occurred within the past 100 years.
The old burn area that is clearly visib]e, see Figure II, at the
head of Mill Creek has been a factor in avalanche activity in the 1930's
and 1940's. The forest fire apparently burned iust..to the upper edge
of the KAC gu1'ley drainage. The resultant open area with the prevailing
west wind up l.lfll Creek would aggravate snow deposition loadfng on the
steep upper slopes of the KAC avalanche path. The exact date of the
Mi] I Creek fire'is not known, but due to the rather common practice of
I
I
setting forest fires to obtain jobs fighting the same fire during the
t depression years, the early 1930's is a likely period. Whatever the
I
source, natural or man-caused, the burn area has definitely been a
factor in avalanche activity on the IGC avalanche. The burn area is
I slowly revegetating, slowly, mainly due to the elevation and is ho'lding
more snow at this time (personal observation, winters 1974, 1975).t

AVALANCHE ZONiNG
Ava'ranche zoning is a face' of mapping of natural hazard zones
such as geological hazards, froodprain mappfng and snow and.ice avalanches-
The swiss have progressed further in physical and legal definition of
ava'lanche zoning 1'4, bra various mountainous areas within the united
states have either passed or are contemprating avaranche zoning (vis,
Resolution of the San Juan County Regional planning Commission, adopted
November 5, 1925; Avalanche Zoning for the City and Borough of Juneau,
Alaska and Avalanche Zoning Ordinance for the City of Ketchum, Idaho).
An interesting aspect of the Ava'lanche Zoning Ordinance of the city of
Ketchum (sun valrey), Idaho is allowing owner-occupfed sfngle-famiry
homes within a so-cailed "Extreme Avaranche Hazard sub-Zone,' with the
stipulation that the owner may reside in the dwelling year_round, but
the dwelling may not be rented,.between November l and Apri.l 30.
The swiss avalanche zoning standards may be generalized by the
fo1 lowing three categories:
White Zone: Terrain.is free of avalanche hazard. It might beaffected b.y tl,q af r blast of duii avatinc'tres tnepressure of which does not exceed 100 iti;;;u*i-(rrg). per square meter (20.5 pounds per sqra"e'i6ot). . -,
Red Zone: Terrain which is exposed to frequent and powerfu'lava'l anches. This mbans avalanches"wiir,, '
'..3"0[!33'ff 350'oji,:,T:i':oHH ?il.;'iil",return period of 30 years'or less;
--.a pressure of more_than 3 tons per square meterand a return period of 90 yeari o"'i"rl.
The blue zone is a transition zone between white and
J"ed. This area is affected onty seiJom or slighilt-by avalanches. This means avalinches have:
;1..1 pl::sure of more than 3 tons per square metertover bUU- pounds per square foot) and a 'return periodof more than 90 years;
BIue Zone:
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
-- a pressure of I to 3 tons per square meter and areturn period of more than 30 yearsi
- a pressure of 0.1 to 1.0 tons per square meter (20to 200 pounds per square foot).
These zone definitions set forth the relative avalanche activity
. and probable impact loads, the zones do not set forth what deve'lopment
actfvities are allowed within these zones. Allowed or disallowed
. activities within the zones must be established by the local or
I
.regional public agencies. The fol'lowing excerpts from ',The Avalanche
Zoning Plan" by Hans Frutiger are pertinent:
"Now it will be possjb'le to determine bui'lding specifi-catjons for the different zones. These will prohibit'constructionin zones unfit. for.development. ' Defjnitions,'however, a"e neiesiary.For example: building reitrictions could not be applied to the -
construction of underground structures such as watdi'reservoirs,' or to temporary buildings used only in summer. It might also bipermissible to allow farm buildingi such as haylofts ind surrnerstables, which are protected by aialanche contiol structures.0n the othei hand, buildings c6nnected wjth big traffic orgathering of people such as hotels and schoo'ls-might be excludedfrom the blue zone.
The zone of trans'ition, especially if jt is broad, can bedivided into smaller seitions. This cin be done by diitinguishing
between more and less endangered areas. It would be lllogical to-require building reinforcements to have the same load capacityg! thq edge of the "red zone" as on the edge of the "white zone".Therefore, avalanche pressure bands with ranqes from 3.0 to 2.0tlnL,2.0 to 1.0 tlnE and 1.0 to A.0 Unz cai be provided.
Eventual'ly, a plan for evacuation must be drawn for the transitionzone. The right to effect evacuation must also be contained inthe regulations of the ava'lanche zoning p1an. In practice the
community authorities can only achieve an evacuation wjth thehelp of an Ayalanche l^larning Service. It hai to give thetechnical advices. Therefore, such a conrnunal servjce has tobe provided necessarily for every settlement having ,'blue zones".
As ga1 be seen, the transition zone (blue zone) occupies a specialpositfon.- A comment must be made now, which could have a1 ready
been mentioned in the chapter dealing with legal aspects. Beciuse

property rights should be protected as rnuch as possible, the
federal judjcial practice requires an unquestionable legal
foundation in order to effect general building restrictions or
building 'limitat'ions which must be evoked as a result of
avalanche danger. It is the transjtion zone that leads to
problems and which makes it idfficult to arrive at decisions
that satisfy public and private interests. It is inherent jn
the peculiarities of avalanches, especially the ones that
occur at greater time jntervals, that their extent and there-
fore their potential to do damage, can only be estimated.
Therefore, sma'l 1 errors can be introduced even by qua'l ified
plan researchers, since no one is in the position to state
obiectively what exactly wil'l happen. Such a possibility
should not be a reason to decide in case of doubt in favor
of the landowners since this could result in a decision whichis neg'lecting the appropriate safety requirement. l,le'should
be aware that a wrong decision can have catastrophic conse-
quences.tt
The definition of the Extreme Hazard or Red Zone, as.used in this
analysis, is basically the same as recommended by the Swiss and can
be stated as follows:t
I

Red Zone:
Blue Zone:
Temain which is exposed to frequent and pOwerful
ava'lanches. This means avalanches with:
1) a pressure of 200 to 600 pounds per square foot
(1 to 3 metric tons per square rneter) and a return
period of 50 years or less;
2) a pressure of more than 600 pounds per square
foot (3 metric tons per square meter) and a return
period of'100 years or Iess.
Terrain that is a transition between the red and white
zones. This area is affected relative'ly infrequently
(t00 years +) or slight'ly by avalanches' This means
ava'lanches have:l) a pressure of more than 600 pounds per square' fobt (3 metric tons per square meter) and a return
period of more than 100 years;
2) i pressure of 200 to 600- pounds'per square foot (1
to 3 metric tons per square meter) and a return
period of more than 30 years;
3) b pressure of 20 to 200-pounds per square foot (0.1
to'1.0 metric tons per square meter) and a return
period of less than 50 years.

The 30 year recumence interval used in the Swiss Avalanche
Zoning Plan is probably due to climatic cycles that have been established
in the Alps. The modifjcation to 30 year, 50 year and 100 year utilized
herein is to p'l ace the avalanche zon'i ng on a more comparable basis to
the existing U.S. Federal Flood Insurance Act which uses the 50 and
1.00 year recurence

slope for the majority of the area is 36 degrees (73 percent). The
bedrock in this area is exposed in many locations as narrow cliff

The upper release area js not as steep as the lower area and
possesses a deeper soil mantle and a sign'i ficant stand of timber.
Average slopes in this upper re'lease area range from 32 to 36
degrees (62 to 73 percent) although the upper end has local slopes
of 38 degrees (77 percent). The snow deposition from the Upper Mill
,.,',,Creek basin has been s'ignificant jn the past due to the burn area,
but with the re-vegetat'ion continuing, this factor is becoming less
of a problem for the upper release area.
: ' . Snow Depth vs. Recurrence Interval
: The west side of the Gore Range has a strong orographic uplift
condition that generates the relatjve abundance of snow that makes
the Vail ski area known internationally for good dependable powder
snow. Snow measurement courses for this area consjst of.the Department
of Agriculture Soi'l Conservation Service stations .at Shrine Pass
and Vail Pass plus the snow courses maintained by Vail Associates near
the Patrol Building at the top of the ski area and near Mid-Vail.
The S.C.S. Shrine Pass snow liiuru. measurements were initiated in
1942; the Vail Pass course in L952. The VaiI ski area measurements
were initiated jn 1963, although some mjsce'l laneous measurements were
conducted as early as 1950.
The S.C.S. Snow Depth Frequency Analysis published in 1.974
(data through 1971) indicates a one percent probability (100 year
recurrence interval) snow depth of 77 inches (1.95 meters) for the
Shrine Pass course and 86 inches (2.3 meters) for the Vail Pass
course for April 1.. The ten percent probability (10 year recurrence

interva'l) snow depth is 76 inches (1.7g meters) for the shrine
Pass course and 73 inches (1.95 meters) for the vail pass course.
In an analysis performed by whit Borland5 in 1972 on the clubhouse
Gulch Avalanche and using the nine years of record from the vail
Associates station, the 1.00 year recurence interval snow depth was ,' ,,--
;
. ind'icated to be. approximately 140 inches (3.0 meters). This record
is:extremely short for a reliab]e frequency analysis, and the course '
character such as wind deposition and aspect are not fully defined
at this time.
These snow depth frequency relationships cannot be used'directly : '
in avalanche analysis for a variety of reasons, but primarily due to
the fact that the maximun snow depth usually occurs in April which
is after the peak period of slab avalanche activity in the central
Rockies' which is norma'l 1y late December to mid Marchn and that the
avalanche activity is the result of cumulative factors within the
'snowpack, such as snow genesis, resulting largely from temperature
history of the snowpack.
As an example, the following is a list and date of occurrence.
of the avalanche accidents or incidences within colorado as listed
in "The Snowy Toments", both the January 1967 and the March 1.975
editions. These two editions cover the period 1.910 through 1.971.

The po-int of this discussion is to jndjcate the probable higher

(Z.O meters) and these depths have been taken as equivalent to the
average release area snow depth for the two recurrence intervals
used in the Red and Blue runout zone definitions'
Runout Zone AnqlYqis.
The detailed analysis of the avalanche dynamlcs and runou,t zone
definition involved: 1) assessment of the types of avalanches that can
occur at this location, j.e. loose snown slab, powder' h,et snow
avalanches or mixed type avalanches; 2) definition of the release
zone, slide path dynamiaa uni'runout distance and impact pressures
for the more critical types of avalanches. A detailed discussion of
snowpack genesis, avalanche types and dynamics will not be included
herein, as this information is discussed trt depth jn the various refer-
ence books.
The loose snow ava'lanche can occur on this avalanche path' but
would involve on'ly the top layers of the snowpack resulting from a
particular storm cyc'le and would be limited in areal extent and runout
djstance. In all probabi]ity, the loose snow avalanches wou.|d be

associated with the1ocal cliff bands in the steeper sections of the
release zone(s) and the cliff area near the bottom of the s)ide path-
The wet-spring type avalanches have occurred relatively frequent
on this slide path, but those or:iginating in the re1ease zone(s)
do not carry through the relatively flat section, Sections B-B and
..
C-C on Figure III, midway down the s'lide path. Debris from wet spring
avalanches in this section were observed by the author in the spring of
1973 and 1975. An extremely large wet snow avalanche could theoretica'l ly
carry through this section, but the bulk of the snow wou'ld lodge !n,the
ravine or arroyo cutting diagonally across the slide path below the
lower c'liff band.
The critica't type of avalanche for thjs major slide path in
determining runout distance and impact pressures in the valley floor
are the s'l ab avalanche and powder ava'l anche or a mixed slab-powder
avalanche. Typically in the Central Rockies, the powder avalanches
originate as soft slab avalanches and through slide path geometry or
velocity considerations evolVE rapidly into powder or nixed state
aval anches.
For the KAC avalanche path with the gu1'ly section near Section
A-A and the lower cl'iff band, the mixed state or the powder avalanche
wi'l'l be the condition of the snow mass as it enters the valley floor-
A ful'l-b1own powder avalanche as would be defined by the equations and
criteria of Voellmy would tend to be confined due to the restrictions
within the mid avalanche track and due to the approximately 30 degree
velocity vector change from the release zone into the slide path-

A = cross sectional area of flowing snow
S = runout distance, meters
The ana'lysis indicates the initial slope velocities within the
release zone are in the lower part of the range that could, under
proper conditionso evo'lve into a powder avalanche. An analysis of
flow regime indicates for flowing snow mass, the Froude Number is
greater than L and thusly "shooting flow" would exist. Calculations
were made for both a flow'ing mass and a mixed condition flowing and
powder ava'lanche. The field evidence was utilized to estab'lish the
cross sect'iona'l area at the various points and to establish the
. historic range of velocities at the cliff and rock nose area.
The traiectory for the snow mass coming off the clfff was ca'l -
culated for various potential ve'locities and it was found that all
velocities be'low approximately 42 meters per second (95 miles per
hour) wou'ld allow the rno* rus to impact uphi1l of the rock nose
(in the arroyo) and this area would have to fill before the remainder
of the s'l'iding mass would carry on through to the valley floor.
Sections across the c'l fff-rock nose area were measured in the
field and the volume of snow to fill this area fs qPproximate'ly 38'000
cubic meters. l^Jith an jnitial density of 0.20 gm7cm3, a deposited
density of 0.35 gr7cm3 and an average release area depth of 1.5
meters, this arroyo would absorb snow from eleven u.r", (4.4 hectares)
of the release area. This vo1 ume and the attendant turbulence and
energy loss for the remaining snorv crossing the arroyo are definite
factors in any evaluation of this avalanche path.

Consideration was given to the possibility of a powder avalanche
with velocities in excess of 42 meters per second at the cliff.
Velocities in excess of 42 meters per second under conditions of a
large powder avalanche on a relatively open s'lope is very possible as
velocities as high as 90-100 meters per second have been reported...
'
Due to the geometry of this slide path and the evidence from the trees
l'be'low the rock nose, it is the op'inion of the author that the probability :
I of a full-blown powder avalanche with velocities in excess of 42 meters
-..1, , per second is sufficiently remote as not to be a design case for this
particular avalanche path, given the adopted runout zone definitions.
The ca] culations for the runout distance and impact pres-sures
were made based upon equations of Voe'l 'lmy and Sa'lm and. the evidence

change of the s1-iding snow due to the geometry of the cliff, arroyo
and rock nose is evident from the debris on the rock nose. This was
considered in the runout zone definition.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
. The concrusions deriyed from this study are shown on Figure II,
. i.e. a High Hazard or Red Zone of avaranche runout that has a maximum
and an Intermediate Hazard or Blue .
,Zone width of 60 feet. The definition of the zones is given under
the chapter !,Avalanche Zoning,' of this report.
'.' A case might be made to define the limits of the runout zone
on the basis of conditions that wourd occur on a more infrequent, i.e.' considerably greater than 100 year recurrence interval, since the
potential for loss of life exists. A parallel could be drawn between
the conceptual design philosophy cu*enily utirized in the design of
dams and spillways in which the design floods are based upon probable
Maximum Precipitation (ptrtp) and pt4 Flood type events and definition
of ava]anche runout zones.
The swiss have considered"ihis problem in the evo'lution of their
avalanche zoning criteria and the conrnents of Gaudenz Bavier of chur
contained in chapter xv, page 157, of,,Ava] anche.protection in switzer-
land", Genera'l rechnical Report RM-9, March 1972, are pertinent.
"De Quervain has expressed himself rvith regard to theavalanche catastrophe of 1969 in Davos as ioilows rerativeto this prob'lem: 'If one wishes to eiclude ait possiUlerisk by. taking as a basis of zoning not only tfre'ieguiaravalanche activity but arso ail is6lateo r,iitoricii"events,then various well-known localitjes would have to-pia-eentire_regions under the ban.' And again he writls: ,Thus,
probably in the future there will remain a residual risk, -'
whether because. in- the. space_ of centuries one must acceptone enormous catastrophe or because more frequent.ly onemust reckon with less intense damage."'
The Swiss, while living with avalanche problems of far greater
magnitude than we experience, to date, in the United States, have
adopted a rationa'l , practical approach to the risks involved and
the zoning l imitations.
" Since two of the Bighorn Townhouse and some of the uncompleted
MC buildings 1ie partially in the Red Zone and partially in the Blue
Zone, some consideration by the Town of Vail'will be necessary to .
\establish a policy for these buildings and the potential inhabitants. \
- .Various alternatives are available which range from allowing continued :
construction and occupancy to restrictive zoning and not a:l lowing
habitation within the avalanche runout zones. Another possibility
is ava'l anche defense structures, either retarding structures in the
release zone or protective structures .jn the runout zone. .
Retarding structures in the release zone would be on National
Forest land and would require considerable cooperation and coordination
with the U.S. Forest Service.,..The cost of these structures would be
relatively high and environmental impact considerations will be
si gn i fi cant .
Defense structures in the runout zone would have to be massive
to afford protection to the buildings and would require careful design
to insure a reasonable degree of protection. It would be premature at
this time to define, fn detail, the structure that would be required,
but the construction costs for fu] 'l protection wou'l d be at least
$200,000.

If there were no bu'i ldings lvithjn either the red or blue zones,
the most propitious action would be to exclude any constructjon wjthin
either zone. The KAC deve'lopment, however, has several buildings under
construction; and the Bighorn Tovrnhomes have been completed and occupied
for several years. The buildings on the KAC development that lie within
, the red zone should not be comp'leted for habitation during the winter
months. Any building that is completed within the red or blue zone
shou'ld be assessed for potential damage to adjacent structures in case
'' :'' structed on the,::,1 f a maior avalanche. If additional build'ings are con
'' MC property, the new buildings should be sited out of both the red
and b'l ue zones.
The Bighorn Townhomes present a somewhat d'ifferent pt:oblem in that
these bujldings have been completed and occup'ied for severh'l "years. There
is definjtely a hazard invo'l ved for these buildings and any wjnter
inhabitants. Based upon "Encounter Probabilities for Ava'lanche Damage"
by Ed LaChapelle, Alta Avalanche Study Center, March 1966,.and considering
a fifty year'life for the building and a fifty year recurrence interval
for a major avalanche, the chances for ava'lanche damage to these buildings
is approximately six out of ten during the expected life period'

As we discussed by phone, the foundatjon under the building being s0ld
to Dave Elmore must be removed and the site returned io its natural
condition. The Tor,rn of Vail requests the cooperation of Silver State'
Colfax National Banknand Paul Sampson, who owns the remainder of the

Mr. Sampson has approached the Town of Vail regarding the Town's
possible purchase of his portion of the site. Perhaps Silver State and

this possibility.

Re: I(AC of Vail (Dijit Corporation)
Dear Ms. Toughill:
I am writing to confj-rm our conference on october 2l ,1975. It is my understanding that you were going to
furnish me with copies of the file on the I(AC of Vail
matter so that we could see what could be resolved.
In addition, I was going to obtain for you a copy of
the avalanche study prepared by Mr. Don Thomas' con-
sultants. I have written for the study and will forward
it to you in the irnmediate future. It would be
appreciated if your secretary could send me a copy
of the information you have in your file on the KAC
of Vail property. I also would like to receive a map
showing how the flood plain Limitation would affect
this property so that we could determine if there is
any land avail-able for use. In addition, would you
please furnish me with the name and address of the
planning department for the County of Eagle so that
I can find out the status of the county's position
on this matter.
We are anxious to see if sonething can be resolved
so that I(AC of Vail can at least salvage part of their
investment by developing a portion of the property or 'in any eventr get this matter finally resolved.

Re: KAC of Vail
Dear Diana:
In accordance with our phone conversation on Friday, April 4,
I am rrriting to request copies of the material in your files on the
above noted project. I am acting as local counsel for Hillix, Brewer
and Myers of Kansas City, which firm represents some of the limited
partners in the KAC venture. It would be of great help to us if you
could forward to me copies of everything in your files including that
which the Colorado Division of Housing forwarded to you.
In addition, because we anticipate litigation which might involve
some of the documents in your files we would appreciate your taking
special care to preserve any files you have concerning KAC.
Thanks for your help on the phone on Friday. I hope our requests
do not cause you any serious inconvenience.
Sincerely,9a*-

Dear Mr. Aldrich:
l'tre have a loan on the one condominiurn completed in the K.A.C.
of Vall proJect. Because none of the other units were ever
completed, our unit is exposed on the west slde to the el-ements.
ft ts our urgent request that you allow us to ueather proof
our unlt. We have already sustalned sone water danage due to
leakage. VIe propose that re be allowed to flnish roofing the
unlt as rell as enclose the west slde of the unlt rrith sone
sort of plastlc sheeting. There may be other minor pre-
ventative nalntenance necessary to weather proof the unit
that we are not aware of as of this noment.
these measures for the nost part are of course temporary
because of the clrcurnstancee but we believe they are necessalXr
to preserve our lnvestment until- the project' hopefully is re-
suned or untll sone deterrninatlon ls nade as to the furure
of the proJect.
I'.le feel confldent that you can recognize the hardshtp placed
uDon us and look forward to a fevorable decision fron you.
Thank you for your consideratlon ln thls natter.

Gentlemen:
In accordance with section 3.05.02 of the county subdivision
recrulations, the Town of Vail submits to the County-planning
Coinnission its review of the preliminary plat entitled' "K.A.c.of Vail." The following points were raised:
(1) Have the proper flood plains been defined on
Gore Creek?
(1) 50 yr. storm(21 100 yr. storm(3) Design flood plain
The proper location of the flood plain would have an effect up-
on the required 30t setback for construction.
(2) Will the existing ground cover remain intact
along the stream bank? We believe that no
burming should take pl3ce within the public
easement adjacent to Gore Creek.
(3) We have determined that the existing pond
functions as a settling pond to remove Po-tential sil-tation from excessi-ve snow and
rain runoff. To alter the present size of
the pond would be to increase the probabil-
ity of siltation in Gore Creek.
(4) Having reviewed the soil rePort' t.te are con-
cerned that the present aquifiing function
of subsoils will be disturbed, therefore,
creating an adverse affect upon the migra-
tion of ground water which supplies Gore Creek
Because of the interference with ground water
flows, it may have a polluting effect.
lnttn
o
eP(s)Reviewing the proposed drainag
the following comments:
lan, we have
(A) Provision should be made to trap run-
off fron paved areas to collect oi1,
. grease, trashr and sil-t.
(B) The drainage easements are now 10' in
width. The County Subdivision Requi-
sition requires a mininun of 20' 'in
width.
(C) That during and after construction, a
Iandscaping plan be submitted so as to
assure the minimal siltatios of Gore
Creek and erosion of the site. we reccm-
roend--that a performance bond be re-quired of the developer by che Countyto assure compliance with this stipula-
tion.
(6) Having reviewed the site plan the following com-
ments are made:
(A) The proposed parking along the County
road requires that vehicles back into
a heavy traffic area causing a clear' and distinct hazard.
(B) The configuration of on-site interior
parking does not separate pedestrian
and bike traffic, thus causing a danger
from near-blind backing into a traffic
right-of way. The density of the pro-ject will generate heavy vehicular traf-
iic that necessitates adequate pedestrian
and bike separation which has not been
defined on the'plan.
(C) The configuration of the parking creates
danger to cars traveling al-ong the pri-
vate drive. A provision should be made
to reduce traffic {Jd. \ <pztvu->
(D) Enough sPace has not been provided for
snow removal. Plowing onto public roads
is not allowed. This could have an effect
on the number of parking sPaces available
to the Project residents.
(E) In terms of fire control , insufficient
access to each building is interferredwith due to the configuration of the
parking adjacent to each structure.

In applying the Uniform Building Code, to the siteplan we find that the distance between structuresis inadequate. The UBC requires 10r where as sep-aration of some structures is much less. This
could have serious consequences for fire control.
In relating said project to the Surrounding region,
the'following points should be considered:
(A) We feel that the construction of thisproject is bn obvious departure fromthe past and present use of this land'
which may have an adverse effect uponproperty values in the area. We suggestthat property owners in the district
be contacted as to their views concern-ing the project.
(B) The property contiguous to the project
should be taken into account, regarding
proposed roads, easements, and general

(?D. (9) In considering the recent statement dy the VaiI <4c7:'-Er1e+u]t
. Associates that timits will be set on the numberL'rva^r(r3'ct€^.'-'.t> of skiers using the mountain, we feel that ac)t'r. alz-u;rT€ balanced density should be sought in the valleyRe<'-rzu.1roi-r which reflects the nountiin capacity. We feel
-Fn<-l L-'';i%.* that this project only aggravates the current
imbalance which is presently emerging in thevalley. The Town of VaiL regards the area in
which rrK.A.C. of Vail" is located as coming under
annexation within the next few years. It is thepolicy of the Town Government to reduce densitiesrather than increase them. It is for this reason
we would recommend that the area in East Vail besubject to, and compatible with the future plansof the Town of Vail. The very existence of this
subdivision will create pressure upon already
strained recreational facilities in the town for
which no, or limited financial benefits will be
realized.
In conclusion we recornmend that this preliminary plat not be
approved subject to further study and conformance vrith thepoint raised herein.

CONCLUS IONS
The proposed totvnhouses shoul'l be founded

'| ovrer dense sands and gravels or compacted
structura I f ill with des ign pressures ' pre -
caut ions , and deta i l s g iven as d iscussed '
SCOPE
This report covers a soil and foundation investigatlon for the K. A. C.
townlrouse project to be located on the Pond Parcel, east Vail, Eagle county,
Colorado. The report presents the rnost desirable and safe typc foundat ions,
allovrable soil pressures, water table conditions' and deslgn and construction
deta i I s.
S I.TE COND IT IONS
Atthetimeofourinvestigationthesitewasvacant.Thesiteis
located south and west of Gore Creek. A large pond, approximately l0 to
15 feet in depth, was located on the north end of the site. A small ditch
ran diagonally across the south end of the site carrylng water Into Gore
creek. Two test pits had been previously excava ted by the owner to examine
the subsoil conditions prior to our investigation'
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
ve understand it is proposed to construct 83 townhouses on this slte.
We expect the buildihgs wilI be of rnood frame construction without basemcnts '
Thc exact lOCatiOn of the townhouses was not known at the time of our investi-
gatlon. \,le understand that the pond wlll be fllled except for thc extreme
northwest end and construct lon wlll take place in thc fllled area'
t
SUBSOIL CONDITIONS
Subsoil condltlons at the site were erratic. In general, they consisted
of 2 to 6 feet of loose, silty sands and sandy clays overlying dense sand
and gravel, The consolidation characteristics of the upp". sands and clays
are presented ln Flg.4. Gradat ions of representative samples of all rnaterials
are presented In Figs. ! through 7. The relative density of the sand and
gravel stratum ls lndlcated by the standard penetration blow counts In
Flg. 2.
Free water is quite near the ground surface over the majorlty of the
slte. In general, the depth to ground water measured at the time the tcst
holes were drilled was on the order of 2 feet below the exlstlng ground
surface except for the south end of the site where the ground water hra s
at least l5 feet belorv the existlnq qround surface.o
FOUNDAT ION RECOM},IENDAT IONS
We bel ieve the nrost desirable and
tolnhouses is spread foot ings . The fo I
shou ld be observed :
founda t lon for the proposed
ign and construct ion details
safe t vpe
lowlnq des
(1) Spread foot lngs placed on the dense sands and gravcls beneath the
exlsting topsoll, sltty sands and sandv clays should be deslgned
for a max lmum soll pressure of 4,000 psf. This foot lng system may
bc used on the west and south areas of the site.
(2) In the areas where flll will be required, the footlngs may be placed
dlrectly on the flll. The area to be filled should have thc topsol I
strlpped and the exlsting upper soils compacted. The structural fill
should consist of a well graded sand and gravel placed at its oPtimum
-3-
fiioisture content and compacted to at least |002 standard Proctor
density or 75i:. relative density. Footings placed on the fill should
b'e rles igned for a nnx imum soil pressure of 3,000 psf . In qhe areas
where the subgrade soils are soft clays, at least 4 feet of fill must
be.placed beneath the footings. Guide specifications for the selection
and placement of compacted fill are presented In the Append lx.
(3) Under the above pressures, we estimate that total settl ement wlll
be on the order of l! inches and maximum differential settlement
across the townhouses will be on the order of 3/4 of an Inch.
(4) Loca I soft pockets of soil found within the loaded depths of the
footings should be removed and replaced rvith a compacted structura I
fill or the footinos extended to the lorver firm soils.
(5) Cont inuous foundat ion vra I I s shou ld be re in forced toD and bottom to
span an unsupported length of at least 'l O feet.
(6) Exterior footings should be provided rvith adequate soil cover above
their bearlng elevation for frost protection.
FLOOR SLABS
The on-site soi ls are suitable to support slab-on-qrade construct ion.
Any flll required beneath the f loor slabs should consist of clean, granular
soils placed at their opt imum moisture content and compacted to at least
903 standard Proctor density. Guide specifications for the selectlon and
placemcnt of fllI are included in Appendix A. Slabs should be separated
from all bearing members wlth a positive expansion joint and adequately
relnforced. A 4 inch layer of free draining gravel should be prov ided
beneath the floor slabs to distrlbute the floor loadlnqs.
o
-4-
SURFACE DRA INAGE.
The following drainage precautions should be observed during construc-
tion and maintained at all times after the torvnhouses have bcen completed:
(l) Excessive weIting or drying of the foundation excavat ion should be
avoided dur ing construct ion.
(2) Backfill around the townhouses should be moistened and compacted to at
least 85? standard Proctor density.
(3) The ground surface surrounCinq the exterior of the toh,nhouses should be
sloped to drain away from the townhouses in all directions.
(tt) Roof downspouts and dra ins should d ischarge wel I beyond the I imits
of all backfill.
M ISCELLANEOUS
This report is preliminary in nature. A minimum of test holeS were
drilled for this investigation. lt is important that. the excavat ions for
each of the townhouses be inspected by a soil engineer to determine that
the foundat ion conditions confornr to those assumed ln this report.

The materlal may be ponded or flooded to aid in the compact lon, lf speclf ically

Dear Mr, Bailey:
This letter is to certify that we are in the process of makinga complete soil and foundation investigation for the subject development.
At the present time, we are drilling test holes to determine thesubsoil conditions and obtain samples which will be returned to ourlaboratory for further testing. After completion of drill ing andlaboratory testing, we will prepare a complete report provlding founda-tion recommenda tions and other problems which may be encountered withsubsoil and foundation conditions. ly'e anticipate the completed reportwif l be finished about July 14,1972. We will submit the desired numberof copies as soon as the report is finished.
. Based on the prel iminary information we have at hand, it appearsthat very granular soils occur throuqhout the site. !{e also understand
some fill is to be placed on the sitt. At the present time we do notanticipate any unusual probl ems with the proposed construction.
lf we can provide additional information, please let us know.
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir:
Rrr suant to our conversation of Aprli l-zt L972t I have cond'ucted' an
engineering feasibility stud.y of yowt parcel in the Bighorn subdivision
5th Addition -- Vail, Colorado.
1rne ?.5 acre trac'c, lies aclJac-eat to and. southvcst of Core Creek, about
i/e *ffu from State llighvay 6 an4 approximately 5 miles east f,ron Vail,
(rUJ(J! Cl\LU.
Tne property lies severai hwld.:r ed. feet fronr the foot of the nearest
rnountain and. ln no appar ent d.anger of snov slid.es.
ftrere is very little elevatior., change exc ep'{; for an approximate 4 foot
bench rihich d lrnid.es the property into trvo relatively ftat areas. Thcre
is a pond approximately r?5-reet in d.laneter on the north side ad.joirrlng
Gore Creek.
The majority of the properiryappears to be cotnposcd'of river Sravel and
sand.. Due to the snor,r cover at 'i;his tirae, it is d.ifficult to predict
the rnaterlal bn the higher bench, but it is probabLy several feet of
overburd.en on top of river gravel and' sand'' these conditions should
tend. themselves vrell to any building projects on the property'
I:i buiS-d.ings are to be located. in the existing pond. arca or iir "Lirc area
along Gore creelc, soil boring shouLd, be done to facilitate foundation
d.esign.
In tlie event that sonc ear:bh fills are req'olred. for filJ-ing portiors of
the pond,, there are fiLl maierials available from an existing Sra.vcl pit
in Avonr'vhich is about B niles lrest of vall, or 13 miles vest of ihe site'
Tbere are lrater, selrer, and elcc'tricity services in the lmmed.iate rlcinity
of the parcel.

Mr. Robert A. Bailey
Di jit Homes lncorporated
2 Goddard Avenue
Box 229
SpiriL of St. Louis Airport
Chesterfield, Missouri 63017
Dear Mr. Bailey:
Ron has been in Court all week and has asked me to review rhe questions which you
set out in your letter to him of \Itay 17, 1972.
After a thorough review of the Interstate Land Sales Act and the regulations pertaining
thereto drawn by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, i! is my opinion
that ihe proposed condominium sales of Dijit Homes in Vail, Colorado will not need
lo be registered as required under the Act or the iiegulations thereto.
My opinion is based on a reading of the Act and Regulations. The lnterstate Land
sales Act was developed to curtail certain unscrupulous practices in the sale of
unimproved lots in a subdivision. The sale of condominium units by definition is
not a sale of an unimproved lot in a subdivision. A condominium unit as defined in
C. R. S., 1963 g llB-15*4 means an individual air space unit togetherwith the interest
in the common elements appurtenant to such unit. The same section defines general
comrron elements to mean the land on which a building or buildings are located; the
foundations, columns, girders, beams, etc. Although nowhere in the Act or Regulations
is the term Iot defined I feel that the sale of a condominium unit cannot in any common
usage form fall within the ordinary rxeaning of the word lot as used in the contexl of
the Statute. To date there has been no holdings either administratively or by the
Federal courts as towhether a condominium unit is a lot. Assuming though for
argument sake that the court would find a condominium unit to be a lot which would
require a registration form to be submittedrthe Act and the Regulation provides for
certain exemptions from the registration piovisions. Section 1702 g) of the Act and
Section l710.l0 (c) provides that the sale or lease of any unimproved land on which
there is a residential, commercial, or industrial building or to the sale or lease of
land under a contract obligating the seller to erect such a building thereon withln a
period of two years is exempl from the registration provisions of the Act. As you can
Page 2
now see even if the Courts would consider Lhe sale of the condominium unit to be a
sale of a lo! we would clearly fall under lhe exemptions since as I understand your
plans you are going to sell built condominiunr units.
In reference to your question about the Intraslate Exemptiotts, il is quiLe true thal lhe
revised Regulations of January 27,1972 irave deleted this lnirastate exemption.
[-lowever, I believe wlren I orilinally spoke lo you about the lnterstate Land Sales
Act I informed you that besides the Intraslate exemption we could also rely on the
statutory exemption cited above.
Enclosed please find a copy of the latest llousing and Urban Development Rules and
Reguiatioirs which you requested. lf you need additional copies of this Regulation
lhey can be obtained without cost by writing the Office of lnterstaLe Land Sales
ilegistration, Department of Housing and Urban Developntent, Washington, D. C.
204il.
I hope the above information has answered yourquestions. lfl can be ofany further
service or if any further explanation ofthe Act ancj Regulaiions is required by you
please feel free to contact me.
Very truly yours,

TECHNICAL DATA: These mirrors are designed for use in all areas
where mirrors are subject to breakage and theft. Mirror fealures a
seamless 14 gage type 304 stainless steel frame with exposed parts
polished to a No.4 satin finish. Back of frame is provided with special
welded anchor nuts and is furnished with 1/4"-20 bolts.
1101 & 1102 Stalnless Sleel Mlrrorr are the highest quality obtainable.
They are reinforced with 1/2" thick fiberboard backing. Mirror is type4fi)
stain less sleel polished to a mirror finish. Care should be taken in cleaning
the mirror, as abrasive cleaners will damage the finish.
1101-1 & 1102-1 Tempered Glasr Mlrrorc have 1/4 thick tempered glass
mirror, which is reinlorced with 1/4" thick fiberboard backing. lt is held to
backing with special waterproof tape, which seals the edges lrom
moistu re and insulates the m irror f rom shock. Tempered glass has fou r to
f ive times the strength of comparable plate glass. lt is extremely difficult to
break and if broken, the mirror will crumble into small harmless crystals.
Reflective qualities are equivalent to plate glass, although subjecl to
minor imperfections and slight distortion under some light conditions,
due to tempering. Surface is highly scratch-resistant and is easy to clean.
1101-2 & 1102-2 Plerlglas Mlrorg have 1/4" thick plexiglas mirror.
Construction is similar to tempered glass. Plexiglas is almost unbreakable,
having about fourteen times the strength of glass. The rellective qualities
are excellent; however, the surface is subject to scratching and care must
be used when cleaning. Powdered household cleansers should never be
used.

Dear Rob:
The Town of Vail has recently completed the acquisition ofall land desired around the KAC Reservoir with the intentionof building a neighborhood park in the area. In developingour plans for the park it is desired that we install anirri gation system to maintain the park site. It was
recommended to us by Mr. Jim Collins that rather thantap into the domestic water supply for irrigation, lveinstall a pi;.p'i ;,',; ti,::e:ci-';:ii-ir,;;.je; io iraw vlaterfrom it for irrigation purposes.
This intention was arrived at in consideration of othertradeoffs wh'i ch are an issue between the Town and the
water districts. We are not constructing a reservoir,
however, would not want to undertake any actions which
may not be appropriate.
If there is any reason to pursue this matter furtherplease feel free to contact me.
Sinc;e,rely yours,

water fountains in Vail. The Town would expect to payfor any necessary el ectrjcal work performed by contractors
such as New Electric as well as parts. I do not expect that
the Town would pay for the cost of routine servic'i ng performed
by Di strj ct empl oyees unl ess you woul d prefer such record
keeping and reimbursement. If this is the case, then we.
would also keep actual costs for manpower associated w'i th
snowp'l owing the Vail Sewer Plant and the Gore Creek Water

employee time for snowplowing not be billed. Regardless,
we will continue to snowolow both of these District facil ities

?. Vail Sewer Pl3,!t-Ill-!- jnd Permits' First, Jim, 1et me
comment on two st f June 4, 1981' First'
ut you know, it is fu11y apprbprjate that the EPA pay.for standard
p.ririt fees and other obt ilitibns wh'ich may be 'imposed by cities 'countjes or special di striits. I am confjdent that EPA not only
endorses such' obl i gati ons but routj nel y expects that projects j n
which they are involved should not be exempted'
Secondly, building permit fees are designed to cover the yelr-
round cost oi the stafiing and operation of our bu'i1d'i ng inspection
r.iponsibilit'ies. Desp'i te misunderstand jngs by the Vai'l Trajl ' the
towh Council has stateb its pol icy on numerous occasions, which is
jn conformance to most other municipal ities, that the costs of
luilOing'i nspection, plan checking, and related processing requi.re-
ments s6ould'be on a pay-as-you-go basis. In a year of extraord'inary
construction, it may be that the Town ends up with greater revenues
than expendiiures. - Equal'ly, as in years of low construction we
;;d rp subsid'zing this fuirction due to the necessity of majntaining
a permanent and piofessional staff, This year has been extraordinary
in'the amount of buildjng permits jssued, however, a majority of
ttr ese projebts are ones iirit require two to three years of
construction wh.il e all the fees are pa'i d in one single year. -As you know, as a home rule municipaiity there.are many equ'itable
una'*o.e comprehensive ways for the Town tO rai se revenue than
Uritajng perinits. To hav-e a general purpgse government rely on
one tim6 ?ees of any nature would be sorely unadvjsable and
iikely impracticabli. So much for philosophy, let me address
this specific matter.
Based upon the building valuatjon of $5,620,000. the total
appropriate ilermit fees would Ue $43,860. I should note that
this bxcludes our recreation amenities fee which our Town Council
ip..iiicatiy acted to exclude special djstricts due to their public
niir.". ThA Town Council has never taken such forma'l action on
iny of the other.fee components. Let me list all fees for you:

After our discussion and consideratjon of this matter, I believe
that a fajr assessment would exclude the building permit fee,
Design Review Board fee (although as a courtesy this project
shouid have been taken to them due to jts magnitude), and the
cleanup deposit. It is my understanding that y9!r staff has
already requested that these plans be checked which we have
initialed,'and that e'l ectrjcal plumbing and mechanical inspections
performed by the Town wi ll be required. Therefore, !h9 !lspectionf..t utsociited with those necessary services total $29,260 rather
than $43,860.
I hope that this clarifies this issue. should you have any need
for iurther clarification I would be happy to discuss this with
you di rectly rather than through newspaper assumpti ons '
This is to confirm your offer to Mr. Steve Patterson regarding the
wiving of a tap fee -For jrrigation purposes in this park in return
for a commitment to pump water from the creek and/or storage pond
at that site. I feel that the Town can and should seek to irrigate
this park site with creek and/or pond water' I would make such a
commi tment to be ful f i I I ed wi thi n the next t1ao years. I woul d
'l ike to reach such an agreement as long as we have the following
understandings:
A. There may be utilization of the existing tap (3/4'inch)
should the Town put in drjnking fountains and/or rest-
rooms i n the futilre ' Shoul d thi s occur we coul d and
woul d revert the exi sti ng s i ze tap from a 'l arger tap
with the understand'ing that no additiona'l fees would
be required for such uses '
Arthur C ourt llla ter
l,lr. Jim Coll ins

B. That we have a written l ong-term agreement and/or
. authorization by the approprjate water djstricts' aliowing the Town to use creek and,/or pond water
for irrigation purPoses.
I hope that these two cond'it'ions appear reasonable and satis-
iactbry. i appreciate your cooperative attitude on this matter
I hope that this letter sufficient'l y clarifjes these three
issues.
