Gordon Pierce made a motion to approve the ordinance, and Tom Steinberg seconded. R
vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously 4-0.
The fourth order of business was Ordinance No. 15, Series of 1988, second reading,
providing new requirements for the use of loud speakers or sound amplifying
equipment. Mayor Rose read the title in full. Larry Eskwith explained the changes
made since first reading. There were no comments by Council or the public. A
motion to approve the ordinance was made by Eric Affeldt and seconded, by Gordon
Pierce. 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. Mayor Rose read the full title. Ken Hughey explained the reasons
behind the ordinance. .Tom Steinberg had questions regarding guests at the lodges in
the area. Larry Eskwith stated he would work on additional language for second
reading. It was also noted there should be a correction in the wording of the
title. A motion to approve the ordinance was made by Eric Affeldt and seconded by
Tom Steinberg. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously 4-0. At this
time, Eric Affeldt stated Gordon Pierce. had mentioned at the Work Session the
amount of letters from people complimenting the Police Officers. Eric commended the
Police Department on such good interaction with the public. Gordon Pierce and Mayor
Rose agreed the Officers were doing a great job.
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. He commented Buck had done some research and found other
municipalities had similar penalties as the proposed ordinance. There was no
discussion by Council or the public. Gordon Pierce made a motion to approve the
ordinance, and Tom Steinberg seconded. A vote was taken and the motion passed
unanimously 4-0.
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.

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.
There was no Town Manager's Report.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:50 p.m.

Tom Steinberg and seconded by Gordon Pierce. A vote was taken and the motion passed

regarding incorporating sales tax in the price of food sales. The full title was

Thank you for your letter concerning sales tax on long term rentals.
Copies of your letter have been shared with all the Town Council
members. If you wish to meet with the Council to discuss this

afternoon work session or an evening meeting. Thank you for your

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.

Dear Mayct~• and Council Members:
1628 Taric~lewood Dr.
Vu.rna, IL 61375
~7une 24, 1988
TYae continui.nq series of articles and letters to tY7.e editor in the Vail
Trail regarding summer marketing indicates the intensity of debate
concerning tY<.at topic. 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,
