Is Tov committed to improve the existing bus line?
Triumph’s intent is to begin initial discussions.Is the Town willing to participate financially or in-
kind,and specifically,is the Town interested in getting 100% deed restricted housing or just 70%
deed restrictions required by the Housing zonedistrict.
Key points discussed:
Waiving property tax, the County can waive per state statute. Historically,the Authority has
th
received 1/10of1% ownershipinterest with no management of the property, similar to
Lions Ridge Apt and Middle Creek, which qualifies for the waiver.
ERWSD has program to finance impact fees over 10 years on public projects. Currently a
statute. This is being used for 6 West Apartments.
The Authority referenced the Town’s new housing policy statements: “Funding is Policy”,
Leverage Financial Strength”, “Housing is Infrastructure” and “Breaking Down Barriers”.
Have fees been waived for other projectssuch asSolar Vail?Yes per Ruther, some fees
were restructured. Granting of reduced or fee waiver was based on proof atraffic impact
was needed, the fee was negotiated. Ruther suggested there may be ways to close a
financial gap without writing a check.
Town can create amore incentive to find balance with less parking.
Construction use tax is dedicated to capital improvements. Would the Town be willing to use
those fees to buildabus turn around vs.Triumph paying for and building it?
Transportation is the key. Is there data showing there is a greaterneed for additional bus
service?
Wilkins stated theVLHA should be willingto look at all avenues coming to theAuthoritywhether
financial or otherwise.
McDougall thoughtthis is a perfect example to put the housing policies to the test.
Meza wantsto enhance quality of deed restrictions being built meaning consider transportation, on
site amenities, etc. It all goes to quality of life.
Ruther will share the Authority’s commentswith Michael O’Connor with Triumph.

data. She will update the data to include all hazard categories, year built and site the source.
