Because the issues of the Chamber of Commerce organization and the final responsibility for special events and information booths have not yet been decided, the Council feels it is premature to authorize a subleasing arrangement. It is my understanding the VRA will continue to provide these services under the contract with. the Town. on a month to month basis until some final decision is reached. Please .let me know if this judgment is in error, If this assumption is correct, we would appreciate you providing us with an estimate of anticipated expenses on a monthly basis in order that we can advance funds to the URA based on that estimate each month. This arrangement alters the payment schedule of the contract, but is appropriate in light of the new and changed circumstances of the VRA. If your Board agrees with this payment arrangement, please sign the original copy of this letter and return to me as verification of the change. Sincer y, v Rondall V.

The Council asks that the Town of Vail amount be reduced proportionately as the total amount of the engineering fees are less than the $20,000 estimate.

Box 223 Vail, Colorado 81658 RE: Learning Tree Building Permit Dear Ted: Thank you for your letter of appreciation to the Town Council and your request for a waiver of building permit fees for the Learning Tree addition. The policy of the Town Council over the past few years has been to not grant waivers of building permit fees for non-profit organizations, although a number of requests have been received. Your request was presented to the Council yesterday and they reaffirmed the policy of not granting waivers of the type you have requested. The primary reason for this policy is the Town experiences direct costs for building inspection services and those costs are offset by the permit fees. The Town Council is pleased to participate in your project through extension of the lease and through a cash contribution, but feels the waiver of permit fees cannot be granted. We wish you the best as you undertake this expansion effort. Sincerely,,' r ~~ ~~l , ~ ~C~- ~~~ Rondall U.

Box 223 Vail, Colorado 81658 March 24, 1988 Mr. Ron Phillips, Town Manager The Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, Colorado 81657 RE: The Learning Tree Dear Ron: On behalf of Moe Mulrooney and The Learning Tree let me take this opportunity to thank you and the Town Council for your gene- rous donation to our building fund. This certainly helps us tremen- dously towards our goal and the reality of a new addition to our existing building. Presently we are in the process of applying for a building permit, so we might begin our project as soon as possible. At this time we would like to ask that you consider waiving the permit fees as this would further help reduce the total amount of money we need to finance this project. We understand that it is not town policy to normally approve such a request, but we feel we have a few special considerations. One, the most obvious is that we are a nonprofit learning center. Secondly, and more appropriate here, when our lease is terminated with the town for the land the building is on, we have agreed that the town will have ownership of the building we are remodeling; thusly making our addition in the long run a town project, benefitting not only the community but also the Town of Vail. Ron, we would greatly appreciate any and all considerations you and the Town of Vail might extend to us regarding this matter.

The article (copy enclosed) says your ordinance will not, however, apply to restaurants. I prefer a non-smoking area, and when deciding how to spend my tourist dollars I rarely revisit a place that lacks a nan--smoking area. I often had to contend with smoke, even during the main course of an expensive meal in one of your restaurants. I suggest that if you wish my return business you should extend your separate-areas ordinance to restaurants.

Rose Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Dear f•~ayor ROS2: :`~~~`i~ ~~1AR Z ~ 1~ This letter is to propose that the Town of Vail purchase for Open Space Recreational Use Lots 1-26, Block 2, Lions Ridge Filing 3, as shown on the attached. Slifer & Company has recently been appointed as the listing agent for the property by Commercial Federal Savings & Loan. They are offering the property for $725,000. We believe that this property provides many opportune uses for Vai_1 residents and guests. Possibilities include: 1) athletic fields - soft ball, soccer, rugby - encircled by natural vegetation and a criterium mountain bike course (one already is on the property as the result of criterium races on the property last summer) 2) a chip and putt, 3 par 9 hole golf course, driving range and teaching center. 3) an excellent site for an equestrian/ranch center such as Spraddle Creek Ranch f or horseback riding tours - access to the Buffheur Creek drainage and adjacent trails - nearby 4) maintain the property as Open Space (natural habitat) with a walking/running trail and possibly a par course - picr.ic tables and even camping pads would be appropriate for this environment The 12+ acres .offer, we believe, one of the last large par- cels in the Town of Vail with several use potentials. Option #4 above would be very inexpensive to provide and offers immediate benefits to residents and guests. To date, one offer has been received on the property. Although it was rejected by Commercial Federal as too low, the property is a good value at the $725,000 price - a value that will attract investors. 230 Bridge Street, Vail, CO 131657 (303) 476-2421 FAX 476-2658 Page 2 of 2 We, therefore, encourage the Town of Vail to seriously consider acquiring the 12 acres.

In essence, I think that a 30,000 sq.ft. building at the entrance to Vail will disturb the small town quality with which we have welcomed visitors to Vail. The last few years have seen the appearance of numerous massive (relative to the village character that has been nurtured here) structures introduced to the town. Let us retain the village quality of Vail, and not "Beaver Creek" our town with building which hardly relate to the human scale.

Please note that these figures are unaudited and thus subject to change.. GENERAL FUND In 1987, the Town of Vail experienced another successful financial year. The effects of conservative budgeting showed themselves through higher than budgeted revenues and lower than budgeted expenditures. The Town's General Fund .showed a fund balance gain of about $457,000 in .1987. General Fund revenues were almost $65,000 over budget despite the transfer of $300,000 to the Capital Projects Fund. The majority of this revenue gain came from Construction Fees ($190,523) and charges for services ($79,164). General Fund expenditures were almost $392,000 under budget in 1987. Over half of these savings occurred in Insurance ($125,718) and Utilities ($87,004). Both of these line items were budgeted with the expectation of minor increases from 1986 levels, but both actually experienced real decreases. Other significant savings occurred in motor fuel, salaries, and Council contingency, Please see page 6 for a listing of the major 1987 savings. Given the fact that the General Fund has finished with substantial expenditure savings for the past two years ($392,000 in 1987, $384,115 in 1986), the question of whether these performances are repeatable comes immediately to mind. Are we budgeting too conservatively on Town expenditures? The answer in this case is "We11...Yes and no". As noted above, the majority of savings occurred in insurance, utilities, motor fuel, and salaries. The only one of these categories which is truly controllable by Town staff is salaries. 1987 actual salary and wage expenditures were 99.12 percent of budget - certainly an acceptable degree of budgetary control. Memorandum - Ron Phillips April 6, 1988 Page 2 The other major categories of savings occurred in the volatile and often unpredictable markets. of insurance, oil, natural gas and electricity. When the ups and downs of these markets are combined with the vrhims of Mother Nature and her great weather machine, it is not difficult to understand how significant deviations from budget occur. Could we budget a bit more realistically in these areas? The answer is, of course, yes - and the staff will endeavor to do so in future years. But please remember, it is not a question of if, but rather when the insurance and fuel markets will show dramatic price increases again. CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND The Capital Projects Fund showed a fund balance increase of $166,811 in 1987. However, this increase is offset by the need for $266,100 in additional expenditures in order to complete several projects. (Please see page 5 for a complete list of needed rollforward funding.) The net decrease in fund balance, including completion of projects approved in 1987, is approximately $100,000. REAL ESTATE TRANSFER TAX The Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund income was slightly over budget in 1987. While a number of RETT projects approved in 1987 were not completed, (see page 5), the projects appear to be on budget. Overall, this fund is performing as planned and additional large expenditures should be avoided unless 1988 revenues exceed budget. CONCLUSION In conclusion, 1987 was a very successful fiscal year for the Town of Vail. If the 1988 budget is met, the Town's General Fund will be approximately $200,000 higher than the minimum recommended balance of $1.6 million. Given the current status of the 1988 budget, we feel comfortable in stating that this $200,000 is currently available for any purpose deemed proper by the Town Council. The Town was also able to begin work on many capital projects in 1987 which were unbudgeted at the beginning of the year. These projects include a new interchange for I-70 and numerous park improvements. The Town of Uail also reduced its total principal debt load by $1,812,225 in 1987.

We have scheduled a public meeting for citizen input on Wednesday, April 13th, and our target date for presentation of the final plan is the evening Council meeting of May 3rd. The Community Development Department requests any comments or suggested revisions to the draft master plan be directed to the Community Development Department by Tuesday, April 12th. If you have any suggestions concerning the draft Trails Plan, please feel free to contact me to discuss the plan. One change that has been made to the plan that is not shown in the draft is the inclusion of an alternate route in the Village stream walk. The alternate route would bring the stream walk on the south side of Gore Creek from Willow Bridge Road to the covered bridge along Gore Creek promenade. This allows an alternative to the north side of the stream along the creek bank which may be cost prohibitive (depending upon preliminary design and cost estimates for this section). We feel both alternatives should be examined. ~~~'~ APR - 8 1988 April 3, 1988 To: The Vail Town Council Re: Proposed Cemetary site- Donovan Park Dear Members of the Council, This letter is a response to your letter of public notice to attend a meeting regarding the community Cemetary in Donovan Park. I have been very opposed to that site as a community Cemetary since it was first suggested five years ago and have made my feelings known to the Council by letters and by attending meetings when I was a full time resident. I would once more like to go on record as being very opposed to the Donovan Park site for the following reasons: 1. It was originally purchased as a green belt area for the use of all the residents of Vail. Public input asked for recreational facilities for the community maintaining an open park feeling.'A Cemetary doesn't fit in with that concept. 2. At best a Cemetary in_that site will interr a small number of people. Who will maintain the site when it is filled and where will other people who wish to be buried in the Vail Valley be placed? Will this be truly a "Public facility"? 3. The property values of the surrounding community could be adversly affected by the proximaty of a Cemetary. Would the golf course residents welcome it in their back yard? 4. A Cemetary in public view just doesn't fit in with. the concept of the valley which is one of vim, vigor and vitality. Surly a more secluded site would be appropriate. 5. There is an existing Cemetary for Eagle county within a 5 mile distance. in Minturn. Perhaps if those who wish to be interred in the Vail proximity would concentrate their efforts to making that facility a beautiful place, they would be doing the entire area a service. I would appreciate your taking my comments and observations into consideration before you make your final decision regarding the Donovan Park site. Yours truly, Rosemary Heller is 30 ~ • ~°~.,~:~ ~,,~- ~~~-~-, ~~ 3 spa 3 ~
