Town of Vail The above referenced legal action is still in the briefing stage. There has been no date set yet for a final hearing on the merits. This case should come to trial in approximately four to six months. LAE/bsc MEMO TO: Ron Phillips FROM: Peter Patt DATEo March 2, 1989 SUBJECTe Potential revisions to Commercial Core III Sign Code. During the recent Design Review Board applicant interviews a discussion regarding the perceived inadequacy of the Commercial Core III sign code with regard to allowable size of signs occurred. Although I agree with John Slevin that the problems have more to do with the lack of a comprehensive sign program (which we have encouraged the West Vail Mall to propose) and the design of the mall itself, you should be aware that the Commercial Core III sign code will be an element in the zoning/sign code revisions project scheduled to begin in the fall of 1989. This project has been approved in the community development department budget for a maximum of $25,000.00 for outside consulting fees. RP:PP 6VA~URA~ ENERGY RESOURCES COMPANY ®®®~~__®_av__e___® P.

This letter is an urgent public interest request for your individual positions on Two Forks. Before announcing your respective positions, suggest consideration of the following irrefutable facts: 1. Although Colorado generates most of the renewable water for southwestern states, it is the only state without some sort of statewide planning for evaluating the balanced use of its water resources. 2. Governor Romer had to make his reluctant yes/but decision on Two Forks without the benefit of any state water plan or input from Colorado's primary water planning agencies -- the bJater and Power Authority and the 6Vater Conservatio:. Board. 3. The 50 year Two Forks idea was conceived, and water rights acquired, long before national interest and laws to protect the environment. 4. The Corps of L;ngineers' environmental study only seriously considered the South Platte dam alternatives that could be constructed using the Denver bVater Department's (Db~D) old water rights on the South Platte and Upper Colorado tributaries that have already been substantially depleted for Metro Denver. 5. DbJD's excessive water rights have been systematically acquired over the years with public funds to maintain monopolistic leverage over Denver's water dependent suburbs. ~m~> a 6. The environmentally and economically superior Union Park, Green Mountain, and City -- farm Recycling alternatives were subjectively eliminated from the Corps' detailed environmental study because of "institutional constraint" (water rights) reasons furnished by D`JD. 7. DjJD manipulated the study process into overlooking the vast unallocated flood water: of the Gunnison River. Colorado is entitled to this water under the Colorado River Compact, but it is being lost to the grateful, more organized, down river states. 8. In addition to Two forks, D~JD has water rights and plans for several future water projects (i.e. Green Mountain, I,agle Piney, Straight Creek, East G;ore, bdilliams fork, and Muddy Creek). These projects will further deplete the same tiJest Slope headwaters that have already been severely dewatered by Metro Denver. 9. Institutional water right matters can be quickly resolved by consensus negotiations, when objective statewide analysis clearly confirms the alternatives that will optimize Colorado's beneficial use of its water resources. 10. The Gunnison's overlooked high altitude Union Park storage could economically enhance Colorado's irrigation and river environments on both slopes during multi-year droughts,, while saving the South Platte Canyon and satisfying Metro Denver's future needs. Colorado's water using public deserves to know your definitive stand on Two Forks before the imminent federal decisions are made on this nationally significant issue.

For the past several weeks, members of the Eagle Valley Humane Society and the local press have been unable to get any conclusive informa- tion regarding this subject. Dr. Steadman himself has been unresponsive to telephone calls and letters. I-~t, in fact, this research laboratory is being considered, there are sev- eral issues which the members of the community and Eagle County should address. This is not a question of opponent versus proponent in the use of animals for medical research. It is question of dealing with the liability and controversy of having such a facility here. Research laboratories that use live animals have recently come under close scrutiny with animal rights activists and the press and the controversy continues to rise. Hospitals and universities have had to resort to extreme security measures and, in some cases, have just discontinued the use of live animals in experimentation. This was the case with East Carolina University which in October of 1987 announced a complete moratorium on the use of animals in its science labs. The University of Washington and the University of Nevada, Reno, have also recently joined the ranks of institutions discontinuing dog research labs. ~' e i a There are other important questions for which we need answers. 1. Where is this laboratory to be located? And please note, it is naive to think it will be less controversial if located °°down Valley°°. It will still be in Eagle County. Dr. Steadman will be in Vail and this is why we will have a research laboratory. The issue is a moral one for both oppo- nents and proponents of the hospital expansion. 2. Where will the funding come from? Who will pay for the construction of the research lab and the operational costs? 3. What types of animals will be used and how will they be procured? In all likelihood, it will be dogs, as they are the most °°popular°° for orthopedic research. Does this, in turn, raise the issue of pet theft or the possibility of pro- curing animals from our own County animal shelter? Well, people say these animals were going to die anyway. We remind you there is a big difference between an injection that brings about a peaceful, humane death and subjecting an animal to weeks or months of tortuous experimentation and then killing him anyway. 4. And finally, if this research laboratory becomes a real- ity, who will be the board of accountability that Dr. Steadman and his staff answers to? Who will monitor the care i' a and treatment of these animals and the types of experiments being conducted? Most major hospitals and universities such as Mto Sinai in New York and Tufts in Boston have found it necessary to form boards which establish protocol with regard to animal experimentations That's right; scientists, doc- tors and the heads of departments have to be granted permission to conduct certain experimentso The animal num- bers, their care and the validity of the experiments are evaluated and monitoredo The people sitting on these boards are not just animal rights activistso They are often bio- chemists, physicians, veterinarians and other professionals who not only have a commitment to scientific research, but also to the humane treatment of living creaturese In closing, we ask the Vail Town Council to give this matter some careful and serious considerationo As mentioned, we have been unable to get any information from the people who have the answerse We urge the Council to research this issue and provide the community with answers before the Town of Vail finds itself in a hotbed of controversya Respectfully, Blondie Vucich Carol Fiske Jan McHugh Eagle Valley Humane Society THE GUIDE to Vail Valley Activities and Special Events The Week of March 10 through March 19, 1989 MARCH 10 -HATS OFF TO CHOCOLATE, ANNUAL CHOCOLATE LOVERS CHARITY CLASSIC to benefit Friday Echo Ranch from 6-8:OOPM at the Lodge at Vail, $10.
