At this time, there was a question from the public concerning previous requirements, to which Larry explained how things would change. The person then questioned if street entertainers could advertise and receive tips on private property, to which Larry commented the ordinance did not deal with street entertainers, only amplified sound. He requested the person to call him to discuss the issue later. A vote was then taken and the motion passed unanimously 4-O. The next item was Ordinance No. 12, Series of 1988, first reading, amending the Design Review Guidelines pertaining to primary/secondary and duplex dlevelopment. The full title was read by Mayor Rose. Tom Braun noted he would not discuss all background information, but would rather bring the Council up-to-dates on chain of events since the May 3 meeting. He stated both the Planning and Environmental Commission and the Design Review Board substantially approved the ordlinance with no problems, explained what the ordinance would do and then answered questions from Council. Tom Steinberg made a motion to approve the ordinance, which was seconded by Gordon Pierce. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously 4-0. The next order of business was Ordinance No. 16, Series of 1988, first reading, prohibiting liquor and beer in closed containers over July 4th weekend and New Year's Eve.

The seventh item was Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1988, first reading, regarding increased fines and jail sentences on criminal ordinance violations. The full title was read by Mayor Rose. Larry Eskwith stated the ordinance was suggested by Buck Allen. He explained the reasoning was the more serious offenses deserved more serious penalties.

The next item on the agenda was an appointment to the Local Liquor Licensing Authority Board. Mayor Rose stated there was one opening on the Board. He noted Council had interviewed Lynn Fritzlen and Tim Savage at the Work Session; Kevin Cassidy was also an applicant but had not interviewed that afternoon. A vote was taken by Council, and Lynn Fritzlen was chosen as the new Board member. The ninth order of business was a sign variance request by Vantage Point. Betsy Rosolack gave background information on the request. She stated staff agreed the Vantage Point Condominiums had an identity problem, and the proposed signage with respect to size was in harmony, but the height variance was not warranted. Staff supported the variance request for total signage allowed, but not the requested sign height variance. Dave Edwards, President of the Vantage Point Condominium Association, noted a typographical error in staff's memo to Council - the requested height variance was to 38 feet, not 48 feet. He stated the Design Review Board had approved 32 feet, and staff recommended 25 feet. He felt it was acceptable and compared their request to what the neighboring buildings and their signage. He felt the request was consistent with what they had and was not an unreasonable request. Gordon Pierce stated he felt there was inconsistency all the way down from the Doubletree Hotel, and he had no problem with the 38 feet request because it was in proportion with the building. He asked the applicant if they could correct the pipes coming out of the roof because they looked terrible. Gail Wahrlich-Lowenthal arrived. Dave Edwards agreed with Gordon concerning the pipes, and said he would try to convince the Board to take care of the problem. Mayor Rose suggested lowering the sign from 38 feet to 32 feet off the ground, at about the second panel of the elevator shaft. After some discussion by Council, Dave Edwards stated that centering the sign within the second panel of the elevator house would be acceptable instead of deciding on specific feet above ground. Gail Wahrlich-Lowenthal agreed with this decision. Peter Patten stated this would be alright, but Council should specify in the motion why they agreed to locate the sign above the 25 foot limit. Eric Affeldt made a motion to grant the variance not at the requested 38 feet, but the sign be centered in the second panel from the roof of the utility shed, with the condition that the exterior utility stacks be better disguised so as not to be an eyesore. He felt raising the sign above the 25 foot sign code limit was acceptable because the sign did not reflect on buildings facing the interior of town, but rather the exterior facing I-70. Gordon Pierce seconded the motion and commented on inconsistencies in the sign code. Eric then included in the motion comments on the Findings as shown in staff's memo to the Design Review Board dated May 18, 1988 as follows: A) He agreed with staff that there was a physical hardship; B) there were special circumstances not created by the applicant; C) the variance would be in general harmony with the area; and D} the variance did depart from the 25 foot limit, but there had been special circumstance variances. granted before. Gail Wahrlich-Lowenthal felt the 25 feet was too low on this building and the sign looked better higher up. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously 5-0. -2- Under Citizen Participation, Reggie Sanchez, representing the Washington Charity Dinner, asked the Council to participate in Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" program by making a donation to a Bowlathon in Denver July 17th. Mayor Rose and Eric Affeldt thanked him and appreciated the offer, but stated this was a little out of the ordinary of what the Council usually supports. Mayor Rose stated they donated to many local programs. Al Weiss stated he read a letter in the paper from Tom Steinberg regarding a need for an Environmental Commission. He noted the Charter does provide for one and the combining of the Planning Commission and Environmental Commission was in violation of the Town Charter; the Council should look into it. Mayor Rose responded to Al's concerns and informed him they were planning to look into it later this summer. Larry Eskwith responded to questions of legality by Al.

Copies of your letter have been shared with all the Town Council members. If you wish to meet with the Council to discuss this further, we will be happy to arrange that for you either at an afternoon work session or an evening meeting. Thank you for your comments and concern. Sincere , ~~ Rondall U. Phillips/ Town Manager RVP/bsc cc: Vail Town Council TO: Ron Phillips FROM: Tom Braun DATE: June 29, 1988 RE: Amendments to the Fees Charged for Parking Assessments in Commercial Cores I & II I would like to update you on our schedule regarding amendments to the Parking Codes as they pertain to the Council's request to increase parking fees to $10,000. Because this amendment is part of the Zoning Code, review and recommendation is first required from the Planning and Environmental Commission. We have posted notification for this item and is currently scheduled for the Commission's review on July ll. This will allow for first reading by the Council on July 19. There are a number of other areas in this section of the Code that are in need of change. As such, we will be proposing these amendments in conjunction with the request to increase the fees charged for parking. While we are aware of the Council's desire to act on this amendment as quickly as possible, adding additional amendments to this action should not cause any delays to this schedule. If, however, other issues arise that create difficulties with these additional amendments, we can separate the requests to expedite action on the fee increase. I thought you would appreciate it some idea of our schedule, and may want to inform the Council of when they can expect to see this amendment for formal action.

I tea have had a letter published. iri March and I have corresponded. with Va.:L Associates about the need for summer product development PRIOR to marketing or promotion. My purparse here is to summarize that correspondence and to suggest a course of action that addresses the dilemma of the summer economy. To summarize my correspondence tYius far, I would make the fallowing points: 1. Development of a :salable product or group of products must preceed marketing or pramotior~. 2. Rrixigirig ,peot?.r~ t:o Vail without: purpose or reason will nat achieve a.ny long term success. 3. A good meal and a T-shirt does not make a quality vacation r:xx~orienre. 4. TkrerP is a v,~cuum of leader,>hip in tyre area of ,umr~cer product .development. 5. No single per•sorr, businessperson, or political/civic leader has the time or resources to spend 100 0 of tYae time developing ~3rodi.~ct and a mar~~eting strategy far 60 U of tyre year . E;. What. is needed is a centrally funded full time Special Events Director/Coordinator with a budget to address both product development and marketing. V.A. has dor:e a fine job of winger product development. It invests heavily ire capital improvements, manpower, organization, and activity structure. V.A. enjoys a healthy return for. this "commitment. " Who stands to gaS_n the most from summer deveioprnent? Where is the commitment from those who will reap the rewards': It falls t:o the community and r_ity leader. ship toi ill the void. A r.•e sor. t association, with the charter and Lunding base, could fulfill this function. The VRA seF~ms to have a different mission. It therefore ber.omes a community task operating in its owri best interests to develop the products the traveling public wants to buy. Regardless of the controlling agency, a full time administrator whose sole purpose is to develop plans and activities covering the entire spectrum of programs and special events is needed. This recreation professional would be sensitive to both the needs and aspirations of the traveling .public as well as the value of Vail's unique style and ambience. make a hard look at t:he corr.errt summer calendar. What i.s there that would entire a family from Peoria to pack up the station wagon and drive twa days to Vail? It- it:' s gust a change irr k:he weathor, that's what Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan are for; not to mention the Cubs, Cards, museums, theater, and hundreds of lakes for fishing, swimming and bc~atirrg. The main ~xaint is that a good meal and a T-shirt is riot the stuff of which vacation memories are made! A gondola rich. only emphasizes what a great place Vail is wizen there is snow for skiing. Each summer month in the Vail Valley sY~au.ld be special; a festival onto itself . There should be a thc~~rne and a "fabrz:c" of related activities and programs that carry the Vail identity. Some possible themes include musical, theatrical, educational, athletic, rornant_ic, artistic etc... In addition, Vail should, by virt.uc~ of its ambienr..e ~~r-d architecture, have the nations biggest and longest Oktoberfe5t with related events from the end of SE~x~tember through Qc:tober.•, The a~~proach i5 to develop programs and activities, thematically based, reflecting the duality the Style of Vail. The strategy for implernerstation is to identify r_ach month of the summer season as being unique. Sf~~z~ar~ateness avid uniqueness would encourage multiple trips for uniquely different; r>xper:ierrces. For Vail, one suc;~ scerra.r•io could be: JUNE FILM FEaTIVAL ~.st Runs anc~. Sneak Previews (Adopt Cannes as <<r Sister. City) JUDY THEATRICAL Touring Companies Professional Performances, Workshops, and Seminars AUGUST MUSICAL Weekly Sub-themes (R&B, Jazz, Rock, Classical, Country, Dixie etc.) Per. forrnarlces, Work:-;hops and Seminars SEPTEMBER Ai~I'ISTIC Loral/Regi.onal Art Expos, Crafts Fair, Displays, Ex~~os, Workshops OCTOBER QKTOY3ERF~;ST Thematic music, food, dance, theater Introduction of New Ski Equipment, Fashion, and Programs, Ski Films etc This monthly event structure could be further embellished with major sports & athletics events acrd special concerts or live performances by touring professionals. Z'he use of Dabscan l~r'ena rauld be substantially increased with these events as well as .Hockey and fiance skating events. These events could be structured as both revenue generating along with street oriented activities supporcinq the major activities. The result is a "fabric" of :free and revenue pr.aclucing experiences witYz a central theme on a monthly basis. The pictures that emerges is ghat of ,~ European village involved in activities and programs within that character. Potential guests will be ab1.e to clearly differentiate between Vail and otrier summer destination resorts in terms of the pragrarns offer. od. These plans embr'ar_e activities already associated with the Vail Valley. f5ack cauritry expF~r'i.erices of various kinds, jeep tours, fishing, raft trips, and bicycling broaden the activity base. With a thematic focus, the:~c activities will flourish with irrcr'eased visitation. What is :irn.portarlt to r.erognize is that these activities a.re Not Unique to Vail.. '1'hc~~y, in factr can be found almost anywhere in mountain resort Gauntry. The strategy I prapaae would ftacus on th~~.L, which is urrigi_rely Vail in Quality and Style. Summer, which really is about 600 of the economy irr terms of calendar days, could become more equal in revenue production compared to the winter sea5an. Wh~~.t is needed now is the vision and LYle leadership to make it hap~7en. SiX1ceY'ely, ~~~~~ Gene C. Merdian Jr'. 309-463-2340 evenings
