TO: TON PHILLIPS
FROM: PAT DODSON
I
DATE: OCTOBER 19, 1987 =
SUBJECT: HOVERCRAFT
I attended the demonstration of the Hovercraft (rode and drove).
After viewing the demonstration, I feel from the recreation
standpoint at Ford Park that the Hovercraft would certainly not do
any damage to the park. Noise factor is about 80 decibels and I
would recommend they use the east end of Ford Park between the
tennis courts and the west field on the grass area.
Other areas that need to be considered if you allow Ford Park
to be used are:
l. Proper insurance coverage
2. Vehicle access to Ford Park through the parking lot
3. Town ordinances concerning sound should be investigated
4. Should be for a trial period - six months at the most
This should probably be brought up at our directors meeting. The
time of use should be no earlier than 10 AM and no later than 3:30
PM. I believe this time schedule will cause the least amount of
impact or controversy.
The only other concern I have is if we are setting a precedent by
allowing Hovercraft to use our facility and if we may get other
people or groups that would also like to use Ford Park in a
similar fashion.

MEMORANDUM 'KC'O OCT 15 1987
October 13, 1987 To: Council members,town manager
From: Flo Steinberg
Subject: Nature Center Policies and Procedures
As it it weren't bad enough that Council hadn't studied the P&P,
when I left the Council chambers I was presented with a"revised"
version of the P&P. So now I have to change page numbers of my
topics. Not knowing which version you will be studying I will
give both new and old page numbers.
POLICIES and PROCEDURES
new? not dated. New Version dated.
Goals
pl 3. "Preserve...and improve...trail system"
How? Will growth be removed? Digging?
Objectives
p2 3F "Install a lighting system on.main trail"
Objection. Too much destruction during installation. Flood
lights could be directed onto path for the few occasions
they're needed. It is also important that the lights on Vail
Valley Drive are functioning. Half of the time they're not.
p2 3G "See Ford Master Plan for future trail plans."
~
p3 4C "Expand school outreach programs"
Who is financing these programs? Schools? Town?
p3 5E "Install new water pipes...freeze"
Have the pipes been bursting from freezing water every year?
p3 5H "Continue to contract...Paragon Guides"
Has the contract been put out for bids yearly?
~ C
NATURE CENTER PERSONNEL
Seasonal
p5 or p7 (new version) "...golf pass"
Limiting seasonal employees to a golf pass restricts
applicants to those who play golf. You are shutting out
qualified applicants who aren't interested in golf. Council
should offer alternatives.
' JOB DESCRIPTIONS
NC Director
p5 or p7 (new version) "in addition to coordinating
tournaments..for Rec. Dept"
Barb Masoner is a full-time employee but works only part
time as Director of NC. Yes? Makes more sense - and less
conflict - to have Director work full time at NC. If
necessary, eliminate job of Assistant Director.
Assistant Director
p5 or p7 (new version) asst. going full time)
If you need an assistant director full time, how can you
hire one without full-time benefits?
Has the Council ever set up GUIDELINES for the Nature Center? I
think not. If it had, there probably would not be "accidental"
destruction.
Some of the recommendations in P&P will destroy the natural
terrain. If the Council agrees to the recommendations, despite
the risks, then it is no longer a nature center. Council should
set up a public policy - either we keep it natural or we don't.

Vail, CO 81658
Dear Flo:
I would like to thank you for attending last week's council
work session. Though the council did not have a chance to review
the Policies and Procedures manual prior to the meeting, your
strong interest in the Vail Nature Center was reflected in your
attendance and comments.
The adoption o`f the manual and a resolution stating the
- council's philosophy of the Vail Nature Center will be addressed
at the next council work session. That session is October 27 and
the issue is scheduled for 2:45 pm at the council chambers. The '
issues brought up on your memo of October 15 will be addressed at
. that meeting.
Your interest in the Nature Center is appreciated by the .
Nature Center staff. The facility is under going changes for the
best because of your concerns. Thanks for your time.
Cordially,
Barbara Masoner

MEMORANDUM
TO: Council
Ron Phi
Pat Dodson
FROM: Barbara Masoner
DATE: October 20, 1987 -
SUBJECT: Response to Flo Steinberg's memorandum of October 13
Listed below are responses to the concerns expressed by Flo
Steinberg in her October 13, 1987 memorandum to the Town Council.
1. Goal #3 states: "Preserve the Nature Center grounds and
improve the trail system." The objectives on page 2 specify
how the goals will be achieved. Objectives 3A-3E address
maintaining and preserving the trails. One of Flo's main
concerns, revegetation of areas damaged due to Living History
Day, is addressed in objective 3A. 2. Objective 3F refers to installing lights along the main trail
(main access to Nature Center). More and more visitors are
taking advantage of this facility. Evening programs continue to increase in attendance figures. This could become a
safety concern as people leaving evening activities have
difficult discerning where the trail is. Lights would reduce
the possibilities of accidents occurring. The contractor
awarded this job would be given restriction to minimize
disrupting the area beside the trail. This project was
initially proposed in 1979. This improvement has not been
funded in the 1988 budget.
3. Objective 3G refers to the Ford Park Master Plan for future
trail plans. See attachments.
4. Objective 5E addressed piping water to the Vail Nature
Center. At this time, the Center has no water pipes.
Drinking water is brought down by a private contractor. The
garden is watered directly from Gore Creek v-ia a water pump.
Once again, this project is not slated for 1988 as it is not
in the budget. The center has requested water pipes in its
initial budget presentations since 1979.
5. Objective 5H refers to the contract the Vail Nature Center
had with Paragon Guides for their 1986-87 winter season.
Paragon was contracted out (Public Notice given in October)
to assist with the Starter House operations. -The-cantract
indicated that if Paragon met all the requirements of the
contract for the 86-87 season, they would be considered first
for this winter season. Paragon has declined this proposal
for this year. The Vail Nature Center is in the process of
bidding the program out for the upcoming season.

Design Concepts ~
!
Upon selection of-an approved schematic plan for both Park sites, a s
eries of Design Concept studies were prepared in order to caref6lly evaluate the _
detailed relat°ionships between activity areas. + I
The design concepts were prepared in a rough sketch plan format over a i:
• topographic base sheet. This allowed the Consultant to evlauate many '
different alternatives to the Plan, keeping the relationships and ideas
which worked well together and were within the accepted schematic framework i;
and discarding those which did not meet the criteria. ; Y
~
The design concepts were prepared as a base Concept Alternative Plan which
indicated an acceptable design of the Park site. These plans included ,
graphic sections of different activity areas within the Park, which he'ped
explain how these areas might appear, their relationships to other activi- '
ties, and how they fit upon the site. In addition to the base plan were
several Subarea Plans which presented alternative relationships, locations '
and configurations of some of the major activity areas.~
The major differences of each concept plan are described below:
. FORD PARK
Concept Alternative Base Plan
This plan most closely follows the approved schematic relationships of the
Pro9ram elements. It contains a large plaza connecting pool and amphithe- ~
?
ater, and indicates the amphitheater architect's service access solution on I~
the far west side of the facility. The alpine garden is split into two ~
segments, one adjacent to the Vail Nature Centre and the other adjacent to '
the amphitheater. The skating pond is located next to the amphitheater ~
plaza space. The proposed pedestrian bridge was placed east of the Nature
Centre and included a more circuitous trail connection. The bike path
bypasses the south portion of the Park site and travels along the top of
the slope toYrard the frontage road.
- _ - 20
t
~ . _ - .
~ Subarea Plan 'A'
Differs from'the base plan in that the skating pond was relocated to the
~ west of the open meadow adjacent to the Recreation Department storage
building. Amphitheater service area has`-b-een moved to the main entrance of
~ the facility instead of along the steep embankment. A larger outdoor plaza
. space exists between pool and amphitheater complex. Pool building concept
includes a glassed gallery at the drop-off area.
~ . Subarea Plan 'B'
The pool complex changes to include a proposed covered mezzanine deck over
the pool tank and a southeasterly solar orientation. The outdoor spaces
~ join together the pool complex and amphitheater and form one large recrea-
• tion complex. A larger parking area was also realized by making this com-
~ bination. While this alternative had merit in regard 'to reduced visual
impact of the facility, common outdoor use spaces, and possible shared con-
struction methods, the organizers of the amphitheater project felt that
~ conflicts between the two different users could not be overcome.
~ . ~
Subarea Plan 'C'
A more urban looking design 'sans' pool complex. This design became the
basis of a fall back position should the pool complex fail to become a
reality. Emphasis was placed on developing the pedestrian space between
~ the skating pond and the amphitheater entrance. This alternative has many
positive features, but the urban design elements were felt to be out of
i~ place in the mountain environment of the Park.
..r~
DONOYAN PARK .
Cancept Alternative Base Plan
~ As per the Ford Park plan, this plan follows the approved 'schematic rela-
tionships of the program elements. Parking is adjacent to the access road
and is screened from view. The large open turf play area has been placed -
in the more level and open portion of the site and_ adjacent to the play
= areas. The play areas sit on a terraced portion of the site and below a

Plan Feature .s
Numerous features of the Master Plans reflect an awareness of each site's
natural resources~and a desire to preserve and enhance as much of the natu-
ral habitat as possible. Native plantings and buffer areas have been
retained around the edges of newly designed recreational facilities and
•pond developments, and existing plant material clearing was minimized.
These actions reflect the intent to create parks that respect and enhance -
the natural quality of the land, while at the same time providing for the
recreational needs of the resident community..
Certain park areas are particularly exciting and attractive by virtue of a
unique interplay between the design and the existing physiographic condi-
tions. The design attempts to identify these special feature areas and
establish them as focal or destination points. They are distributed
throughout each park site and are easily reached from access points by
vehicle, pedestrian walks, bicycle paths, or nature trails. Each area
offers a different type of recreational experience. ~
FORD PARK 1. Pool Complex/Entry Area The Pool Complex and shuttle bus drop-off becomes the front door to the " Park and serves as the collecting area for Park visitors arriving by bus or
car. The distinctive architecture terraced into the slope will be an
important focal element for visitor orientation witnin the Park. The Pool
Complex will be one of the major recreational centers within the Town of
Vail,
2. Access Plaza
The Access Plaza is the primary pedestrian link from the parking area to
the amphitheater, alpine garden and lower bench-_faGili.ties.- The paved and
ramped spaces cascade down the slope along the backside of the pool com-
plex, affording beautiful views of the Park and Gore Creek. -

DATE: October 6, 1987
SUBJECT: Summary of recreation projects
l. Ford Park
The overlot grading for the lower bench of Ford Park will
be completed this fall. A bid process was completed and
B& B Electric was selected to be the contractor for the
project. Work is scheduled to be finished by the
beginning of November. Next spring and summer of 1988,
the following improvements will be made to the lower
bench:
1. The asphalt recreational path and service road
2. The entire picnic area on the southwest side of the
recreational path including landscaping. 3. Utilities for current and future phases including
electrical stub-outs, park lighting, sanitary, water
and irrigation main line sleeving and wiring will be
completed.
4. Completion of informal play field to include a
walkway along the amphitheatre, sod and irrigation.
5. Complete play area facility to include play areas in
equipment locations, hard core surface, restrooms,
drinking fountains, picnic table and grill locations,
landscape and irrigation.
6. Pedestrian walk up to ball fields terminating at the
east field.
2. Bighorn Park
This fall restrooms will be added to the park.
Landscaping improvements are being made to the area around
the pond. Additional play equipment will be added in the
spring of 1988.
3. Sandstone Park
Rest rooms will be added this fall. Additional play
equipment and landscaping is also proposed for the spring
of 1988.
~
' 4. Buffehr Creek Park
This park will be completed by mid-November and includes
grading, irrigation, seeding, picnic areas and landscape
improvements. Four parking spaces are also located on the
southwest corner of the park.
5. Aquatic Facility
The Swimming Pool Task Force and consultant completed the
feasibility study for the Vail Aquatic Center in the
spring of 1987. A final Swimming Pool Task Force
presentation was made to the Town Council on July 7, 1987.
The proposal contains four key elements:
. Amusement pool which includes several pools on
multilevels with a variety of slides, water falls,
fountains, sprays, bubblers and other entertainment
features. This pool will be designed to be an
attraction to guests as well as locals.
. Indoor multi-use pool, a 25 meter by 25 yards pool
designed for multi-purpose uses including diving,
instruction, lap swimming, kayak instruction, scuba
instruction, physical therapy and water games.
. Outdoor recreational pool, an outdoor 50 meter by 25
yards pool suitable for instruction, fitness and
recreation uses, training, and competition during
mild weather.
Total Town construction costs for the project are $6.5
Million.
If operated under present market conditions, and with
competitive entrance fees, annual aquatic attendance
levels are expected to exceed 175,000 visitor days plus
use by school children. Total revenues would exceed $1.05
Million annually, while operating costs are expected to
reach $865,000. Net revenues, after a reasonable start-up
period and marketing effort are projected to exceed
$210,000 per year.
The facility is proposed to be located on the east portion
of Ford Park. The pool facility requires approximately 2
acres. Parking for the aquatic facility as well as for
other uses at Ford Park would take up an additional acre.

Dear Mayor Paul Johnston, Ron Phillips,
and Members of the Council: I am writing to formally advise you of our plans to add eleven
channels to our basic programming, effective January 1, 1988. The six
channels currently offered as our Tier service will become part of our
basic service and we will be adding five new channels. Below is our
channel lineup as it will appear in 1988.
2 - KWGN : Denver TV2
3- CBN : Cable Broadcast Network
4- KCNC : Denver 4- NBC
5 - WTBS : Atlanta Superstation
6- KRMA : Denver 6- PBS
7- KMGH : Denver 7- CBS
8 - WGN : Chicago Superstation
9- KUSA : Denver 9- ABC
10 - ESPN : 24 hour sports channel
11 - CNN : Cable News Network
12 - The Vail Show & Cable Value Network
13 - Local Information with K-LITE music background
14 - USA Network
15 - MTV music televison
16 - Nickelodeon (daytime) & A.R.T.S. (evenings)
17 - Financial News Network (daytime weekdays) & American Movie
Classics (evenings & weekends) *
18 - CNN Headline News : 24 hour news headlines *
19 - Discovery Channel : Science and Nature features *
20 - Lifetime

24 - MOVIE CLUB - REQUEST CHANNEL
25 - HOME BOX OFFICE
26 - CINEMAX
27 - THE DISNEY CHANNEL
28 - SHOWTIME
29 - C-Span .
The channels with the single asterick were the most frequently
requested basic channel additions from our June mail survey. Capitalized
channels 24 through 28 are optional premium services.
C
We have also repositioned, where possible, the more popular channels
below 13 in order to provide the lodging community with the best
selection. This is an important consideration because a majority of our
lodging customers do not have cable ready televisions capable of receiving
channels above 13.
We are also switching from microwave to satellite reception of the
Denver stations. This will result in clearer and more reliable pictures.
It will also enable us to transmit any Denver stereo broadcasts to our
customers that own stereo televisions.
We believe that these changes will make cable television service in
the Vail Valley compare favorably with the service provided in other
destination resorts as well as many metropolitan areas. In order to cover
the increased programminq and caoital costs of these additions we will be
adjusting our basic monthly rate to $19.95 as of the first of the year.
This change will actually reduce the per channel cost from our current
rate of $1.33 to less than $0.87 next year. It will also result in a rate
decrease of $0.95 per month for the 450 Vail subscribers that currently
have our Tier service, while at the same time giving them five more
channels. In fact, because we are not increasing our premium rates,
approximately 25% of our Vail customers will see either no change or a
decrease in their monthly bill.
We will be informing our customers of these changes in a special
mailing next month that will include a new channel chart. We will also be
issuing press releases and advertising in the local media.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely, 7ineLarson

Dear Ron:
Now that our new expansion is complete, I thought it appropriate to recognize
the outstanding support we received from your code authorities. These individuals
spent countless hours reviewing plans, as well as day-to-day construction
activities, to enable us to produce a building of the highest quality.
In particular, the efforts of Gary Murrain, Joe Norris, Ernst Glatzle, and
Mike McGee were invaluable not only in identifying potential problems, but
in developing sound, practical solutions that met both the letter and spirit
of the many codes to which a hospital is subject. In some cases, we incorporated
some of their ideas which, while not mandatory, resulted in a measurably safer
facility.
Al1 four of these individuals are true professionals, with obvious dedication and
enthusiasm for their jobs. We feel that they left their imprints on a facility
which we expect to serve the health care needs of both the permanent and visitor
communities for many years to come.
Sincerely,
`(~41
