approval of the conditional use permit based upon the following factors:
Consideration of Factors:
Relationship and impact of the use on development objectjves of the Town.
The Town of Vail Council has supported the expansion of snow mak'ing facil ities
on Vail Mountain. Use of effluent for snowmaking is considered a positive action.

wjll be very insignifjcant to the area, espec'ial1y if the structure can be designed
and colored to blend into the hillside.

An environmental impact assessment has been completed by Vail Associates and permits
have been received by the Colorado Department of Health and the Army Corps of ingineers.
F IND INGS :
The Department of Connnunity Development recommenas that the conditional use permit
be approved based on the following findings:
That the proposed location of the use js in accord with the purposes of this
ordinance and the purposes of the district in which the site is located.
That the proposed locatjon of the use and the conditions under which it would
be operated or maintained would not be detrimenta'l to the public health, safety,
or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
That the proposed use would comply with each of the app'licable provisions ofthis ordinance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS :
The Department of Conrmunity Development recomrends approva'l of the requested conditional
use permit for the snowmaking water co1 lection system. So long as the visual impacts
of the structure are mjnimal , the project wjll be a benefit to the community.
The Design Review Board should be made aware of the Town Council's (as jrroperty
owners) concerns of ensuring that the structure blends into the hillside and is
an unobtrusive as possible.

Re: Proposed Gore Creek Col-l-ection System
Gentl-emen:
Vail Assoclates, Inc. requests a Condltional Use Pernit for the constructionof a water intake and pumphouse ln and adjaeent.to Gore Creek, innnediately
bel-ow the effl-uent discharge polnt of the Sanirary Dlstrict plant.
This project was conditlonal.J"y approved at the P.E.C. neeting ofJuly 27, J-98J-. Several, considerations have prompted us !o reapplyfor approval. PrimarlJ.y, we have noved the location of the structurefron the confluence of Gore and Red Sandstone Creeks to the south bankof Gore Creek imedlately east of the T5S R81-W range Llne. This line ls
the eastern boundary of Tract K of the Glen Lyon Subdivislon. tle are
noving the structure this short distance because:
1) We nove out of Tract K and avold the complexlties surrounding
the acquieitlon of permanent easement frorr Mansfleld, Ltd.
2) We move closer to our el-ectric power aource and lessen the
contfugent capltal {nvestment for that power
3) The rsater flows of Red Sandstone Creek during our snowmaking
months are negllgible . relatlve to our pumping needs and to thedilution and coollng of the Gore Creek/tertiary effluent mLxture

Mr. Peter Jauar

We are also reapplyl-ng because we have to redesign the structure. Due
to the dlfficult construction problems posed by the l-ocation \re propose
a partial-l-y subterranean atructure. The structure wil-l- be vislbLe for
only a short dlstance aJ-ong the bike path, and will not affect the wldth
negatlvely.
The attached set of plans fulJ-y iLlustrate the deslgn. In effect, though,
all we will be doing ls brlnging the pumphouse above grade, setting it
lnto the hillside and lengthening the inlet pipe to accomodate the change.
Other factors:
A. Noise
Due to the nature of the structure, the anbient nolse during operationwill be mlninal-. It will be lnaudlble from any concelvable resldence
or place of busj.ness and, if fact, wlJ"J- not be detectable unLess one
were to stand right outside the buil-ding. Slnce most punping w1Ll be
done during the w-inter nonths wheo the bike path ie closed, our operation
will- not be heard by anyone except perhaps during late October or early
November.
B, Visibility
The vislbLe portion of the struct.ure wlll conforrn wlth any requirements
posed by the Design Review Board relating to palnt colors, r{ood sheathing,
and other visual- factors.
C. Revegetation and Streaubank Restoratioa
All existing grades wlLL be restored to the greatest posslble exteflt
and seeded with mixturea proven successful on Vail Mountain. The rlp-
rap and boul-der character of the streambaak will be restored after
construction aod any ex;rosed soils wlLl be seeded.

path wilL be thlckeoing the roadbase layer, the asphalt layer (to 4")
and adequately protectlng the nanholes of the sewer line. The as-built
survey of the serter Lioe ahons a nlolmum lnvert of 9 feet throughout the
entire length of that stretch ot EffiJipe. Wtth that amouot of cover,
the sewer l"ine wiLL not.be Jeopardlzed by moveuent of construction
equipment. Vall Associates wlLL assume responsiblLity for the repair of
any damage caused by access of maLotenance vehicles after the path is
paved.
E. Mlnimum Streanflows
HoJ.ue, Roberts, and Owen, our corporate corm6e1, has given us assurance
that the fLolr rates of Gore Creek wiLl .be maintained at proper levels
during hours of operation and that ne are withiD our.Lega1 domain when
withdrawiag water from the creek. We are in the initial stages of
instltuting an augm.entatior plan to asaure proper streamflolrs if we
are called out by Shoshone or a si.mllar senlor right.
Other Background Infornatlon:
A. Property Orunershlp
Ihe pumphouse slte is olrned by the Upper Eagle Valley Water and Sanltation
District. It ls part of a parcel of land dedlcated to the District by
the Town of VaiL in 1982. This parceJ- roas part of a J-arger parcel
dedicated to the Town of VaiL in l-978 by Vall Associates. We are in the
process of obtaining an eaaement for the coostruction fron the Distrlct.

Dear Chris:
Further to our telephone conversation and your
memorandum dated August 5, 1983, we are proceedingwith alterations to the Gore Creek pumphouse
accordingly.
Because of the additional 5 feet set-back from theproperty line, the main retaini_ng wall must beresj-zed for additional earth load conditions; thiswill also apply to the new retaining wall to theeast of the building as well as the protruding frontwing walls.
I .expect that the time element in making these
changes would be 8 working days betweep engineering
and drafting and the stamped drawings can be sentto you August 22nd..

This is located in the Upper EagIe Valley Sanitation District (U.E.V.S.D.) Easement.
The section begins at the Gore Creek I'later Collection Vault and is buried in asoutherly direction to a transformer box to be cribbed into the hillside, south ofthe future bikepath. Thenceunderground easterly, 270 feet to the intersection ofthe easements of U.E.V.S.D. and H.C.E.A. on the north side of the bikepath. Placea pole at thjs intersection to carry the powerline overhead up the mouhtainside.
Overhead Section
From that pole, in the overhead H.C.E.A.direction, 220 feet, up the mountainsidetion 8,200 feet connecting to the primary
grounding of this stretch of line js not

Dear Peter:
The purpose of this Letter is to explain the impact ofthe Vail Associates snowmaking diversions on Gore Creek
streamflows below the Gore Creek CoLlection System lntake.
IVe have analyzed. the impacts of the proposecL d.iversionsduring normal or maximun purnping modes of operation. Theonly month ln which maximum pumplng operations could bringthe streamflow close to the current recommended minimum of7.O c.f.s. wouLd be February. However, sinse February wouldbe at the tail end of our snowmaking season, it is likelythat we would be only "patching" and thus, we would actuallyneed less than the amount required during normal pumping
modes of operations.
I hope that the attached information satisfies the
concerns raised regarding this issue. Please 1et me know if
any additional information from Vail Associates j-s required.
Sincerely,
VAIL ASSOCIATES, INC.

RE: VA Water Diversion for Snow Making
We had the Council appeal the PEC's approva'l basically to give us t'ime to lookat the concerns raised by the Forest Service which we received after the PEC
meeting. .Jerry Dah'l has been reviewing the issues, but as of yet (10:00-am-Thors)
has not given us his report.
Joe Hartman has met with VA and has called me regarding his concerns. He believes(as we did originally) that there are no major pioblemi with this phase I ofthe proposal whjch is taking .|.78 cubic feet per second out of the creek. He
does, however, believe that there may be some problems wjth future phases.
It is important to stress that the PEC on'ly approved Phase I, and we should
impose the following conditions:
1. Meters with 7-day graphs should be installed on all 3lines (Mi1l Creek,
Lionshead' and Gore Creek) in thc snownakinq buildinq io monitor flor.rs;
2. The approval should be for a l-year e+-+-year period at the end of which
time we could review impacts;
fil The Council should tell them that they should know that before any future" phases are approved, we wil'l require a hydrologic study to be completedto determine what minimum stream flow on Gore Creek shou'l d be.

Gentlemen:
It has come Lo my attention that the additlon of the snow-making equipment- and the building necessary for housing such
equipment in LlonsHead is being challenged by some persons.
Please note that the lrJestwind owners and iLs management fully
support Vail Associates in their at.t.empt to make the skiingin LionsHead desir-able at all times.
I r:nderstand that the _equlpment used will create less noisepollution than the present portable machines used and theuse of the machines will be only temporary during the startof the ski season and the end of the- season. The building
housi-ng the snow rnaking machhe is to be designed to fit i.naesthetically with all surroundlng buildings. AE any ratethis will fit bet.ter than the racine shack-located in thatarea in the past.
In conclusion, it seems that the nr,ajority will benefit from thisamenity and would encourage consideration to the acceptanceof the Vail Associates addition.

As an independant business man with aninterest in the LionsHead area, I wlsh to
express my concern over the proposed Vail
Association pumping bui'lding to be located
on the South side of Gore Creek.
It is extremely important from an econ-
omic standpoint that we assist the Vail Assoc-iates efforts to improve the quality of ski'ing
and to assure a full season of excellent skiing
on the LionsHead lower slopes. This has an
important impact on both the LionsHead andVillage business.
Certainly all of us must support Vai'l
Associates efforts to improve the qualityof skiing in such an important way.
As an individual businessman and with theinterests of the community as a whole in mind,I urge the town council to approve the Vail
Associates plans as presented so that tre can
be assured the best quality product and longest

MEMORANDUM
August 10f 1973
TO: TOWN COUNCIL
FROM: PLANNING COMMISSION
RE: VAIL ASSOCIATES PUMP HOUSE
In a meeting Thursday, August 9th, the Planning Commission revieweda revised plan from Vail Associates for the Pump House to be l-ocated
down at LionsHead. Based on that plan and with a few observations
noted below, the Conunission reconmends to the Council that a Condi-tional Use Permit be issued for the building.
Following are a list of points discussed with vail Associates which
should be made a part of the Permit:
1. A wooden gate and fence should be placed across the drive to
screen the compressors located just outside the west portion
of the building.
2. The deadline for absolute completion of the buiLding, including
all landscaping was set at July L5, 1974. In connection with
this, the Commission recommends that the Town be provided with
a detailed landscape plan for the project as soon as possibl-e.
3. The requirement of a Performanqe Bond for landscaping was waived
in view of the contractual agreementE which Vail Associates will
enter into with various neighboring homeowners, represented by
Douglas Mclaughlin, which stipulates that if Vail Associates does
not complete a satisfactory landscaping pl-an, the homeowners may
come in and redo it -- with the cost to be borne by Vail Associates.
4. If suitable to the site, the building may be rotated slightly on a
clockwise basis -- it was the feeling that this would actually
enhance the hidden aspects of the west elevation.
5. vail Associates indicated that the west wal-l of the building rnay
be extended to the west at some future time to slightly enlarge
the building. The Commission recommends that if this takes place,
the then west wall be faced with stone.
6. The Commission recommends that the outside air tank also be screened.
This would be acconplished by point #1 for the irunediate futurei
however, if the building is extended and the wooden gate taken down,
then the air tank would require some additional screening.
a
7. There is a bit of a problem concerning the entrance road tothe building and the bike path which appears to run through it.
The Commission recormnends that the entrance road be put to theside of the bike path and be gravelled as shown on the plan --this will eliminate any confusion about the bike path beingactually part of the driveway.
