Campbell asked the Board to respond to a Vail InDEED question. Can an existing EHU receive Vail InDEED funds if they place a price cap on the unit? All members present said no as no
new unit / beds are generated. Staff provided the Board an update on the 12-23-2 Employee Generation and Mitigation Rates code amendment. PEC approved the amendment 4-3 with Rediker, Perez and Gillette opposed suggesting there were too few survey results and therefore accurate data
comparisons could not be made. Council approved the changes 6-1 on first reading. Updating the mitigation rate brings code current having not been updated since 2008. The Board wants to provide a position statement with regard to Comprehensive Open Lands Plan and housing opportunities. Staff informed the Board a recommendation needed to be
received no later than October 4, 2017 so to add to the PEC agenda packet for October 9, 2017. A review and discussion of the 1999 Employee Housing Guidelines, Lottery Process ensued. The Town has had the same resale lottery process since 1999 and it’s time to
update. Suggestions were made to modify the lottery process as follows:
• Add solar device to capital improvements calculation
• Amend applicants to include telecommuters
• Applicants may own real estate in Eagle County at time of submittal. Property must be sold or deed restricted prior to closing on the lottery resale unit.
• Remove annual lottery drawing instead allowing individual lotteries as units
become available. The Board perceives the resale lottery being run similar to the Chamonix Vail Townhomes. That is if you financially qualify, currently own property in Eagle County and work an average of 30 hours per week you may apply as a unit becomes available.
While telecommuters work in Eagle County allowing those individuals to apply for housing works against the local business housing needs according to Wilkins. Murphy stated the goal is to provide workforce housing.
A motion was made to approve the above suggested improvements to the Housing Guidelines. Motion: Morales Second: Wilkins Vote 3-0 The Board was provided an update on Solar Vail redevelopment. Ruther stated a
development agreement is in process and a deed restriction preference for Vail employees first after Sonnenalp employees. The Town’s expectation is all entitlements are in place no later than January 8, 2018. Next approval steps are Town Council executive session, resolution approval at Council evening meeting and development agreement available to public.
Molly Morales motioned the Board enter an executive session according to C.R.S. §24-6-402(4)(a)(b)(e) - to discuss the purchase, acquisition, lease, transfer, or sale of

applications. Motion: Morales Second: Wilkins Vote: 3-0 Morales motioned to conclude the executive session and reopen the regular meeting. Motion: Morales Second Wilkin Vote: 3-0
