WORK SESSION
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1987
2:00 p.m.
EXPANDED AGENDA
2:00 1. D-iscussion of Proposed Joint Letter Concerning Homestake II
Larry Eskwith
Action Requested of Council: Approve/modify letter to the
editor which has been drafted by UEUW&S legal counsel.
Background Rationale: Dave Mott, Bill James, Norm Wood, Jim
Lamont, Peter Patten, Larry Eskwith and Ron Phillips met
last Monday to discuss the best strategy for getting a
political message to the County Commissioners without
jeopardizing the legal process. We agreed that a letter to
the editor approved and signed by as many municipal and
district boards as possible in the County would be effective
in getting the message to the commissioners without
infringing on the established legal process where no
additional information may be officially submitted to the
Commissioners. The proposed letter as drafted by Calkins,
Kramer, Grimshaw & Harring is enclosed for Council's review.
If Ccuncil approves the letter, it will be submitted to all
newspapers in Eagle County, Colorado Springs and Denver.
Staff Recommendation: Approve the letter.
2:20 2. Discussion of Vail Marketing Program with the Marketing
Beth Slifer Committee
Action Requested of Council: Discuss the proposed marketing
program with the newly appointed committee. They met last
Tuesday afternoon and have some initial recommendations to
discuss with the Council. Beth Slifer was appointed as
spokesperson for the Committee.
3:30 3. Discussion of Prioritization of Goals
Action Requested of Council: Review individual Council
member goals as discussed two weeks ago and work on
prioritizing them.
Background Rationale: The goals as listed by Council
members in the last meeting have been typed and also grouped
for further study. The Council will work on prioritizing
those and coming to some consensus on the most important
issues.

Draft December 22, 1987
To The Editor:
The Homestake II project, proposed by the Cities of Aurora
and Colorado Springs, has been the subject of much debate and
controversy during the past year - and for good reason. If built,
Homestake II would have profound detrimental impacts upon the
future economic and environmental health of Eagle county.
As local governmental officials, representing the Towns of
Avon, Vail , , and ,
and the and water districts, we have
joined an overwhelming majority of County residents in asking the
Eagle County Commissioners to deny the Homestake II permit
application.because many of the adverse impacts of the project
cannot be effectively mitigated. We take this opportunity to
explain why this permit must be denied.
During the twelve days of hearings held earlier this year,
evidence presented to the Commissioners and the County Planning
Commission demonstrated that Homestake II cannot meet established
standards for protection of the environment and cannot comply with
the Eagle County Master Plan. The end result of construction of
the project would be significant degradation of the natural
amenities that enhance the quality of life for all Eagle County
residents, and provide the basis for our recreational economy.
First, diversions of water to the east slope by Homestake
II will cause concentrations of toxic heavy metals to exceed water
quality standards set by the Colorado Department of Health. We
already have a serious water quality problem on the Eagle River
due to heavy metals pollution from the abandoned Eagle Mine.
Homestake II, by removing clean waters from high in our watershed
(the Holy Cross Wilderness Area), would result in higher
concentrations of pollutants including lead, cadmium, copper,
zinc, iron and manganese.
The recent fish kill in the Eagle River, probably due to
high concentrations of pollutants during low flow periods,
demonstrates the critical nature of this problem. While Homestake
II would not have been diverting when this particular fish kill
occurred, it could have caused the problem to occur earlier in the
season and thus to extend for a longer period of time.
Second, expert testimony presented during the hearing
established the fact that Homestake II will result in an absolute
loss of wetlands within the Holy Cross Wilderness area. the
Cities argue that the project will only cause "changes" in the
wetlands involving a possible 1150 percent increase in woody
vegetation." However, such changes will irrevocably alter the
character of the wilderness area.
Only last month, the US Army Corps of Engineers found that
the wetlands monitoring and mitigation plan proposed by the Cities
is not sufficient to meet their goals for protection of the
wetlands. The Corps proposed a list of additional monitoring and
mitigation measures which have not been accepted by the Cities.
Third, the combined effects of Homestake II would degrade
many of the natural amenities that have enabled Eagle County to
develop a healthy and stable economy based upon summer and winter
tourism and recreation. The basis for the economic health of
Eagle County is irrevocably linked to our spectacular natural
environment. Who will come to Eagle County to fish after reading
about more frequent and extended fish kills in the Eagle River?
Who will visit the Holy Cross Wilderness during construction of
tunnels and diversions dams and after stream flows have been
reduced by 80 to 90 percent? What will happen to the spectacular
waterfalls on Cross and Fall Creeks during the spring snowmelt?
Will more rafters go to the Colorado River and Arkansas River
instead of coming to the Eagle River? Will the Cities continue to
oppose our efforts to find water supplies for winter snowmaking
which is vital if our ski areas are to remain competitive?
While these questions are difficult to answer precisely, it
is clear that the end result for Eagle County is a diminishment in
the attractiveness of our environment which will adversely affect
our ability to compete in the tourism and recreational industry.
Fourth, Homestake II clearly violates the Eagle County
Master Plan. The County Master Plan states that "Eagle County
should oppose water diversions that adversely affect its people
and environment." In addition, the Master Plan outlines the
following specific goals, the attainment of which will be much
more difficult for Eagle County citizens if Homestake II is
approved:
1. The encouragement and strengthening of the recreation
and tourism industries.
2. Protection of the economy of the county and the
lifestyles of its inhabitants.
3. Protection, maintenance and enhancement of fish and
wildlife habitat, natural water systems, unique
landforms, and scenic qualities.
4. Maintenance and enhancement of water quality and
quantity, and protection from degradation by out-of-
basin water diversions.
Furthermore, the County Commissioners must not overlook the
fact that Homestake II, is only one more phase of a much larger
plan for transmountain water diversion to the Colorado Front
Range. While Homestake II would take an astonishing 84 percent of
the remaining Eagle River water available for development in the
dry year, the Cities are planning further expansion of the
Homestake Collection System in the future (the Eagle-Arkansas
Project). In addition, Denver plans to develop other diversion
projects such as the proposed Eagle-Piney and Eagle-Colorado
projects, which will further reduce the water resources in Eagle
County.
Eagle County and other west slope counties can no longer
afford to take a piecemeal approach to transmountain water
diversions which, in the aggregate, will have a devastating impact
on the economy and the environment. The Vail Valley Consolidated
Water District has proposed a plan, the Green Mountain Exchange,
which would allow front range cities to development additional
west slope water more cost effectively and with less damage to the
environment. While Denver has expressed an interest in pursuing
this proposal, the Cities of Aurora and Colorado Springs have
refused to work cooperatively with the west slope in any way.
We strongly believe that the evidence supports denial of
the Homestake II permit application. We appreciate the careful
consideration which the County Planning Commission and the Board
of County Commissioners have given to the issues involved in
reviewing the Homestake II permit application. However, we hope
that our concerns, as outlined above will be fully addressed, and
we urge the citizens of Eagle County to continue expressing their
views on this matter which is of such critical importance to the
future of Eagle County.

MEMORANDUM
T0: Mayor Rose
Town Council Members
FROM: Charlie Wick
DATE: December 23, 1987
RE: Amendments to the Business License Ordinance.
There will be brief language brought forth to amend the business license
ordiinance on January 4, 1988. The following areas will be defined and
clarified.
* Seasonal Business
* Sq uare Footage
* Seats
* Rentable Units
One other business type has come to our attention which may merit the same
Council consideration as was g`iven to athletic clubs. This business type
is theatres. If the theatres are left as is, it means they pay the full
square footage price. Two other options which may have merit are: (1) to
include theatres with the $1,000 maximum granted to athletic clubs or (2)
to charge on a per seat basis (perhaps $2.50 to $3.00 per seat). I am
not planning to include any changes for theatres in the January 4, 1988
amendment unless the Council wishes to make a change in this area.
Larry and I are exploring methods to assess businesses operating outside
of Vail. We hope to have at least the preliminary research completed by
the January 4, 1988 Council Work Session.
