Other TOWN OF VAIL FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT/PLANNING FIVE YEAR OPERATING AND CAPITAL BUDGET FORECAST AND STAFF FINANCIAL OPINION April 21, 1989 Prepared by the Budget Office Administrative Services Department PURPOSE The broad purpose of this forecast is to estimate the level of revenues and expenditures for the Town of Vail through 1994 and thereby highlight potential funding problems and opportunities. This forecast should therefore be viewed as a planning tool for analyzing the Town's current and future financial situation and not as an attempt to set the exact level of future budgets or budget policy. Due to the interaction of the myriad of variables addressed in this forecast, it becomes progressively less reliable beyond the current year. Therefore, the five year budget forecast will be updated annually. METHODOLOGY This document is divided into four sections: Section I: Section II: Section III: Section IV: Assumptions. Briefly outlines and justifies the major assumptions behind the forecast. Findings. Lists the significant findings of the forecast. Recommendations. Presents staff recommendations on fiscal policies and bonding capabilities. The actual spreadsheets used to make the forecast. 1 SECTION Io ASSUPgPTIONS A. REVENUE 1. Sales Tax. The Town's sales tax revenue has increased at an average annual rate of 8.0% during the past five years. An estimate of 5.5% annual growth in future sales tax revenues is assumed.

Property Tax° No increase in property tax revenues is assumed except for those increases due to new construction. 3. Ski Lift Tax° A 5% growth rate is assumed. This is based upon a 2% growth rate in skier numbers and 3% annual price increases or some other combination of these factors. 4. Parking rates are assumed to increase 2% per year with a 3% increase in parking rates in 1992. 5. Real Estate Transfer Tax revenues are assumed to average $1.2 million per year. This is consistent with the average tax receipts received since 1980. 6. It is assumed that the Town's current Urban Mass Transit Authority (UMTA) operating grant will be received every other year. 7. An economic climate of moderate growth and 5% inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has been assumed. 2 B. EXPENDITURES 1. Many expenditure estimates in this study are driven by detailed plans for areas such as fleet replacement, capital improvements, street repair and maintenance, building repair and maintenance and employee compensation. 2. Salaries and wages for current employees increased 3.8% in 1988 and 2.6% in 1989. An estimated 4% increase in this item is used for 1990 and 5% thereafter. As the Colorado economy begins to pull out of the very slow growth of recent years, we expect municipal salaries and wages to resume growing at a market rate similar to the CPI. 3. Health insurance premiums are expected to continue increasing at a rate substantially higher than the general inflation rate. A 10% growth rate has been used in this study. 4. New positions have been added at a rate of $40,000 in 1990 and $20,000 per year thereafter. This assumption is based upon the necessity of meeting increased service demands. 5. The fleet replacement schedule is budgeted at the level necessary to maintain the fleet in good condition. Funds sufficient to replace the bus and fire fleets have been included in the Capital Projects Fund budget. 6. It is assumed that the Town will need to add an additional bus in 1992 and 1994. 7. The payment to the Vail Metropolitan Recreation District for provision of recreation is assumed to remain steady at the current level. SECTION II o FIkUDI]~GS A. General Fund. As is currently planned, the General Fund will incur cumulative operating losses of approximately $400,000 from 1989 through 1992. These losses are planned in order to allow the street improvement plan to continue without a property tax increase. It would appear that growth in General Fund revenues has been sufficient in 1988 and early 1989 to cover all foreseen expenditures for current service levels. Any further growth in General Fund revenues above the modest levels assumed in this study should be available for other purposes such as increased service levels, additional capital projects, etc. B. Capital Projects Fund. Given the assumptions built into the forecast, sufficient resources will be available to fund all 1°Required" and "Essential" projects on the Five Year Capital Projects plan (see page 6). In addition, the following amounts become available for other items: 3 YEAR AMOUNT 1990 $279,000 1991 $708,000 1992 $1,016,000 1993 $546,000 1994 $513,702 C. Real Estate Transfer Tax. Future funding for additional open space projects is directly dependent upon the revenue level in this fund. Any RETT tax revenue above $1 million per year will become available for projects. If the assumption that annual revenues will average $1.2 million is accurate, the Town will be able to spend approximately $200,000 per year on RETT projects. D. Debt. Including notes, warrants, leases and bond payments, approximately 22.8% of the Town's budgeted 1989 expenditures are used to pay for debt service. Unless new debt is authorized by the Town Council, the absolute amount of debt payments will actually decrease in the near future as .current equipment leases are paid off. By 1994, existing debt is projected to amount to only 18.4% of total expenditures. According to credit rating agencies, such as Moody's or Standard and Poors, a local government's total debt service (both long and short term) should be less than 40% of the total budget. Vail's current level of 22.8% debt service places it well within this range. The Town staff is hopeful that Vail's decreasing relative level of debt service, our increasing fund balances, our recent history of growth, and our sound financial practices will soon lead to an increase in the Town's credit rating. As illustrated by the chart below, the Town's debt as a percent of expenditures has decreased substantially in the past several years. If no new debt payments are added, this trend will continue in future years. 4 T®~N OIL ETA ~I~ EXPENSE CATEGORIES History and Projections ,~ 9i 8l 7( 6C SC 4C 30 20 10 0 Ee Total Capital S endinge As can be seen from the graph above, capital spending as a percent of total spending has increased as debt service spending has decreasedo Operating expenses have remained relatively steady at about 58~ of total expenseso IVo dramatic changes in these trends are foreseeno SECTIOAT I%%o R~CO1~lEND~iT%O1VS 1a The growth in sales tax revenues which occurred in 1988 and early 1989 has created a very desirable economic situation for the Town of Vaile If the assumptions in this study are correct, the Town Council will be able to continue to freeze the Town°s property tax rates A property tax rate freeze through 1994 would translate into a real dollar decrease in property tax cost to the taxpayer of approximately 45~ from 1985-19940 As addressed in the previous Five Year Budget, a continued property tax freeze will have the effect of making the Town increasingly reliant upon elastic (ioee, subject to possible dramatic change) revenue sources such as sales taxese Such reliance upon elastic revenue sources increases the impacts on total revenues (both positive and negative) of changes in the local economye Due to the unpopularity of financial health, the Town property tax rate freezeo continue to grow at a rate position will become incre< yearse property taxes and our current staff recommends continuance of a However, unless sales taxes faster than inflation, this isingly less tenable in future 5 ' ~"'" ' ~~-r ~ ~o~ ~ atsb 1 987 1 988 1 989 1 990 1 991 1 992 1 993 1 994 YEARS TOWN OF VAIL 1989 - 1993 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ----REQUIRED PROJECTS ------------------------- 1989 ---------- 199(1 1991 1992 1993 CONDITIONS/COMMENTS 1.

The objectives of the Board are to cultivate and display the beauty of Rocky Mountain alpine and subalpine plants in a unique mountain setting that is also easily accessible to visitors, to demonstrate the variety of perennial plants and trees that will grow at higher elevations, and to provide a tourist attraction of economic benefit to Vail. With broad support from residents of Vail and Colorado, the Town of Vail, the Vail Valley Foundation, the Denver Botanic Gardens, and interested corporations and foundations, the Vaii Alpine Garden Board is fulfilling these objectives by building The Betty Ford Alpine Gardens and by providing a variety of educational programs for the community. The gardens, located in Gerald R. Ford Park, have been named The Betty Ford Alpine Gardens in recognition of the many contributions Mrs. Ford has made to the Vail community. The first phase of the gardens, an Alpine Display Garden, was built in the spring of 1987. The current project, a Mountain Perennial Garden, was started in the summer of 1988. A future Rock Alpine Garden and Visitors Center will complete the master plan for the gardens. The Vail Alpine Garden Board has also established an educational program for the community through workshops and wildflower tours and promotes community beautification through its summer and winter programs, °'Vaile Valley of Flowers°° and "Vaila Valley of Lights." The Board of the Vail Alpine Garden is requesting a grant from the Town of Vail of $25,000 from proceeds of the Real Estate Transfer Tax to be used for the construction and planting of the Mountain Perennial Garden. -1- A BRIEF HISTORY Originally organized as number of long-time Vail alpine garden for Vail. Vail Alpine Garden, Inc. for the alpine garden in Park. Friends of the Alpine Garden, a small residents supported the concept of an The group incorporated in June 1985 as when the Town Council included a site the master plan for Gerald R. Fvrd Board members solicited funds from Vail and Colorado residents, businesses, and foundations to build an Alpine Display Garden at the entrance to the Ford Amphitheater in the spring of 1987. The garden was named The Betty Ford Alpine Gardens in 1988 in honor of the former First Lady for her many contributions to the Vail Valley< The Vail Alpine Garden Board has raised over $175,000 in private and foundation support. It has built the Alpine Display Garden, initiated construction of the Mountain Perennial Garden, and developed a horticultural and beautification program for the community. The Vail Alpine Garden sponsors summer and winter competitions for community beautification, "Vaile Valley of Flowers" and 1°Vaile Valley of Lights." In cooperation with the Denver Botanic Gardens, the Vail Alpine Garden hosted a Vail weekend workshop for 40 people in 1987 and will organize a tour of Vail gardens for an estimated group of 100 national garden writers, lecturers, and educators in July of 1989. GOALS OF THE VAIL ALPINE GARDEN To collect, preserve, cultivate, and display herbaceous plants, trees, and shrubs, primarily native to the North American Rocky Mountains To accumulate data on the growth, habits, adaptibility, and needs of plants in the collection To provide an educational program that consists of a data base, a library, a slide collection, a quarterly bulletin, guided tours, seminars, and classes To introduce new plants into cultivation and encourage their use by demonstrating their habits and growth requirements To provide a habitat for rare and endangered plant species To encourage more gardens and plantings in the Vail Valley and to beautify Vail°s landscape in both summer and winter To provide a passive recreational activity which will be a tourist attraction for Vail and Colorado -2- THE MOUNTAIN PERENNIAL GARDEN OF THE BETTY FORD ALPINE GARDENS PRELIMINARY BUDGET Quantity Size Description Unit Cost 1988 1989 HERBACEOUS PLANT MATERIALSo 100 6-10 eye Peonies $6.00 $ 600 200 lg Daylilies 5.00 1,000 200 lg Tall Bearded Iris 6.00 1,200 100 Median Iris 2.00 200 200 Dwarf Iris 2.00 400 50 Japanese Iris 5.00 250 50 Spuria Iris 5.00 250 600 Primula species 2.50 1,500 200 2 1/41° Meconopsis 2.00 400 200 #1 Hostas 3.00 600 400 Ferns 2.00 800 200 #1 Heathers 292 1,000 2 1/41° Groundcovers .50 500 100 Water Plants 3.00 300 300 2 1/4°° Dry Wall Plants 2.50 750 3,000 #1 Perennials 2.00 446 6,000 500 #1 Woodland Plants 2.00 1,000 50 flats Violas 8.00 400 20 flats Icelandic Poppies 8.00 160 Bulb Allowance 1,500 SHRUBSo 300 #5 Deciduous Shrubs 7.00 2,100 100 #5 Evergreen Shrubs 10.00 240 100 #1 Broadleaf Evergreens 2.50 250 TREESe 45 2 1/2°° gal.

In the next 30 to 45 days, she will confirm times and exact locations, with the entertainment being evenly divided between Lionshead and the Village. We are in the process of deciding on permanent locations to achieve a "same time, same place" profile and to produce continuity for our guests and locals.

The Town may be entitled to regulate cable TV rates because of the absence of effective competition to cable services. - compelling a determination that no effective competition exists may be time-consuming and expensive if Heritage contests this point 2. Consider whether Heritage should be allowed to directly or indirectly assign the franchise without the prior consent of the Town. 3. A ten-year franchise may give the Town a better opportunity to ensure that the system is state-of-the-art. 4. Consider whether it would be appropriate to compel an upgrade of the system to a 450 MHZ system with the capacity of 69 channels by some mutually agreed upon future date; as an incentive, perhaps the term of the franchise could be extended from ten to fifteen years upon completion of the upgrade. 5. Consider whether customers should be entitled to a refund or abatement of cable service fees in the event of significant signal outage. 6. Should Heritage pay interest on converter deposits? 7. Should Heritage refund to a subscriber the costs incurred by the subscriber in contributing toward the cost of a line extension to the subscriber's residence at such time as the minimum density requirements of the franchise have been met? ., 8. Even though technical standards are preempted by the FCC, consider the possibility of negotiating a provision requiring compliance with stricter standards now or, at a minimum, at such time as such standards are no longer preempted by the FCC. -2- ~a~nake~s claim isy 4h®.4ssocis4®d Pv®ss WASHINGTON -Cable television executives faced a buzz saw Wednesday from congressional, broadcast and con- sumer critics who said cable companies are reaping billions of dollars in profits at public expense. Sen. Howard Metzenbaum, D-Ohio, led the attack at a congressional hearing, sa in cable rates have risen an average o ercen nation since Con ess fte vi u y regu ations on ca e operators in 1984. _ "The government reports that the price consumers pay for cable service in- creased at a greater rate than any other commodity or service in the entire United States," said Metzenbaum, chair- man of the Senate Judiciary subcom- mittee on antitrust, monopolies and business rights. Metzenbaum said what little authority the Federal Communications Commis- sion has to regulate cable is a joke, and h int duced two bills that would allow City ~C~"PT^^1°^fQ ~o regulate P rates, require that cable pro rah mmers maTce their rograms avai able to com- pe ing technologies suc as satellites and wire ess ca e, an pro i it a ca a com- pany From controlling more than 25 per- cent of the cable subscribers in the country. Edward Fritts, president of the Na- tional Association of Broadcasters, said the cable companies now dominate the local TV marketplace. "In 1984 when Congress passed the Cable Act, cable characterized itself as a struggling, infant industry," Fritts said. "That act, which in essence removed all regulatory oversight, has become the communications equivalent of anabolic steroids.

"The technicians only come out between B 8.rtt and 5 p.m, and you can't get a set time which means you have to take a day oS from work. Sometimes you have to take off two or three days before you get the problem fixed." - Programming Cable now has more channels and more original prog<'anuning than ever.

"Every time you want t0 settle down to see a movie, iCs the same one they've played over and over agaia" Callers frequently linked their un- happiness to the deregulation of the cable industry in 1984. - In 1980, when Able was still reg- ulated, basic rates were 57.85. - In 1987, as 98 percent of the USA's TV households subscribed. ba- sic cable bi1LS averaged S13.Z7. - In 1989, cable moved Into 55 percent of TV homers, and the month- ly basic bill will rise to Y16.52. Cable defenders say deregulation has actually led to cable improve~ menu. Decker Sandstrom of the :Na• clonal Cable Television Assodaiion says since deregulation, "The ntun- ber of cable networks has increased by 90 percen4 spending on new pro- a3mmirrg by cable systems has jumped from $300 billion to Y800 tlil- lion ayear." Across the board, major cable net• work executives are spending more than ever on their programs. - USA Network spent S62 million in 1987, Y86 million in 1988 and places to spend 5113 million this year. - Ted Turner's six•monthold ba- sic cable channel TNT estimates it will quintuple it's programMing bud- get to 850 million this year. TNT president Gerald Hogan says he doesn't want iD see repeats dominat- ing TNT as they do now. "Our go~'tl is to become a major player, a [oe-to- tce competitor will[ the ne[worlcs," says Hogaa Improving service is also an issue cable leaders are addressing. "What you are seeing is renewed attention by the operators [o cusurm- er service," says Sandstrom. "It's been a problem created largely in part by rapid growth since the early 19805. Customer demand simply out- stripped our systems." Among improvements: New tele- phone systems, extended hours, opening "cable" stores in shopping mays and customer service traitring programs. "The service is still a little behind the programrrting," admits Bob Clas- ses, president of Comcast Cable Communications, the nation's sev- enm-larger[ cable operator. "The product is getting better and the cus- tomer has to be assured if we sched- ule aninstallation we get there, if they call the office they can get ~~.. Clasen says tor. the last three years the percentage of his cable subscribers ordering disconnects has continued to decrease. "The cable industry must be regu- lated," says Joyce MacDonald of Westbury, N.Y., where her Cablevi- sion system has been in the midst of controversy over not airing some New York sports programming. "I'm paying S50 a month to watch TV and I don't have half the chan- nels tlratother people have for S20 or 525. It's a monopoly. If you are not going to have competition then you have to have tegWatldn." Telephone companies have been hoping to increase competition by entering the cable marketplace, but so tar haven't been avowed. Some callers think they shoWd be. "The cable industry has tended to take advantage of their monopolistic position and I woWd certainly hope the telephone company is allowed to provide some much-needed compe- hdon." says Jce Laposa, who works for the City of SL Louis (Mo.) Cable Division. "It wiv certaiNy. give the cable operators an incentive to im- prove customer service, operations and keep the raters more reason- able.,. Still, the cable industry says restor- ing regulation would be a mistalte. And few beveve it will happen. "I don't see any widespread inter- est in reregulation: 'says the NCTA's Sandstrom "DeregWation has only been in effect for two years and while there are some problems there are some great advantages. There's more channel capacity, there's dou- ble the investrnent in new progtsrtts and that's clearly benefited the con- sumer." Tom Malloy of Arlington, Va, agrees. "Put it this way, I like to eat a lot and I like to watch sports a tot But I would rather give up my ref~ig- erator than my able 1V." ~~B®~ ^^^®~ ^~ae^ ^~^^~~ ~ ^^^ ^~^ ^ ®~ ^ 9 a Econor been Si Especia that to exquisi Rentth Chrysle just 33~ With a advanc or 336.' 24hou ticipatii Or, rent of its tii Plymot with a at part restrict New Y 25Qa1 These taX, Of 1~Tutri~Systeni support Nat1On~ wel~~l~ 1~1J-SS MOnt~le THE PROBLEM: 68 million adult Americans are overweight"; 34 million of those are obese.** THE SOLUTION: According to the Council on Scientific Affairs of the American Medical Associa- tion, the solution has three simple elements: 1.

Pit®a yitAA~ BACKGIt®iJND All non-profit and many public organizations are governed by Boards of Directors. Trustees. or Commissioners. There is a vast array of organizations - -hospitals. school systems. city and county government, social agencies. "~: h•ade associations. advisory groups, and professional societies whose destiny is influenced by their Boards. ''3? Yet the job of the Board i the least studied, most under-designed rule in the organization. ~~ The job of the Board relates to governance. It is often the final arbiter of coals and practices and is intended to be a source of strategic leadership. Y'et Boards are seldom al+le to. exercise such leadership. Instead. for a variety of reasons. Boards are often required to remain essentially reactive. ]ronically, Boards are comprised of some of the busiest. most able people in the community. and served by dedicated staff, all of whom can be hampered by a governance model that ma_v not work well. W)EIAT Y®U CAN EXPECT Fit®iVi A VIDE~CONFERENCE This is a live. talkback videoconference that lets you and your counterparts around the country question the national presenter throughout the day. T'he teleconference includes specially prepared print materials and a format designed to maximize the exchange of information. Teleconferences are considerably more intensive than a ty_ pical traditional conference. Participants usually receive more information than they anticipated. For that reason. our teleconferences include local presenters or panels who provide an additional perspective on the subject and assist in distilling and highlighting the key information. `'VLI® SH®Li]LD ATTEND Members and staff of public, non-profit, and/or governmental boards. councils. commissions and associations will find this teleconference to be a provocative departure from conventional wisdom about how Boards work hest. Phis teleconference will take an approach that centers on a new governance model: the strategic. leadership Function of the Board and the effect that this approach can have on the Board agenda, policymaking. board-staff relationshps. committee work and otfiicer roles. For the competent Board member, oFticer, and staff who may often feel trapped in an ineffective process, this teleconference offers clear guidence for introducing fresh strategies and new levels of excellence to the Boardroom. 8L10-60E08 O> >aPlnoB g~~ xo8 sndwe~ uol~e~np3 6ulnulauo~ ~o uolslAl® ~aplno8 }e ope~olo~ }o ~(hs~aniu(1 0 TELECONFERENCE AGENDA: Ri-INVENTING THE BOARD Boards need to find a better way of conducting their business. Ittuch of what they spend their time doing is often inherited. The result is that the Board may be the most underdeveloped link in the governance enterprise. Through a new governance model that allows for a simple, powerful understanding of the Board's job and its difference from the job of the executive, it is possible to bring quality, vigor and discipline to the boardroom. This new governance model frees up staff time and allows the Board to focus on the vision and values that constitute strategic leadership. 'T'his is a Board ,job design centered on clarifying organizational "ends" rather than tangling with administrative means. It is governance that clearly separates the Board role from the staff role and gives fresh. more useful meaning to accountability and leadership. • F..lements of a new governance model • Guidelines for separating the Board's job from the Executive's job. • Principles with which to design and evaluate the chief executive job so that executive strength as well as Board control are preserved. • Ways iu which Boards can responsibly and safely withdraw from administrative matters. • Rules by which Boards can avoid being trapped by trivia and immediate pressures. • Models fo~° meeting formats in which dealing with strategic vision is the norm. • A succinct, efficient approach to wicomplicate the polic~° making process. TELECONFERENCE PRESENTER John Carver is a writer/consultant for non-profit and public boards and their chief executives. Por 20 years he has worked with boards throughout the United States and Canada. He has written numerous papers on the subject of boards. His model for governance is increasingly seen as a breakthrough in the opportunities for strategic leadership and responsible oversight by governing boards. Mr. Carver holds B.S.. M.Ed.. and Ph.D. degrees in economics. education and psychology. LOCATION/TI11IE/PARKING This videoconference and workshop will be presented from 1 1:3U a.m. - 2:30 p.m.. Saturday.

Falling as they generally do on people who don't elect the officials involved, and occasionally supported by the travel industry when they go toward tourism promotion bureaus, these levies have continued to rise even during the tax. revolts of the last decade. Yet individual and corporate travel budgets must take account of them. For easy comparison, we include the combined state and local sales and occupancy taxes for the top 50 U.S. cities in terms of hotel rooms. as compiled by Jeannine DeLoche of the Journal editorial-page staff from Hilton Hotels staff in the various locales.

We do not ask you to take this kind of action often, but we have serious concerns about this bill. 1. Section 25-8-104(2) will be used to prohibit the use of the antidegradation rule from barring a project. It will also prohibit the Water Quality Control Commission from considering mitigation requirements, such as periodic releases for flushing flows, as a part of a 401 certifiction. 2. Section 25-8-202 will create a jurisdictional nightmare ensuring that both groundwater regulations and non-point source regulations become difficult or impossible to implement. It will also make it much more difficult for local governments to use 1041 regulations to consider water quality impacts of water diversion projects. This bill has other serious deficiencies that are too numerous to mention here. In light of these concerns, we encourage you to veto S.B. 181. Sincerely, Kent R.

These projects need to be discussed and approved by the board and submitted to the Town Council for their approval. The definition of a CIP as per the TOV, is any major non recurring expenditures of $15,000 or more in total cost with the useful life of five years or more. We have followed, in most cases, this same definition. However, I did feel it necessary to bring the Board up to date on what was submitted back in June, 1988. The Town Council asked VMRD to submit all their CIP projects with cost estimates they wish the '1'OV to consider. They were not interested in receiving ongoing requests as they came up. It is extremely important all VMRD CIP costs for 1 year be submitted, so TOV has the opportunity to weigh all our projects. It is also important these costs be prioritized as followse -Required projects -Essential projects -Desirable projects -Acceptable projects Please find attached a copy of the followings 1.

DESIGN PHASE: ~ '- -Jim Morter/Josh Brenner, Architects $30,000 -Soil Test 3,000 I have contacted Intermountain :Engineering and am getting a quote from them. The soil test will be $550 per hole if we use our own back hoe. I have scheduled the work to be done on April 24, 1989 at 9x00 AM. The swimming pool will require 2 holes, tennis courts will require 1 hole. The estimated cost for the pool should be less than $1,500. -Site survey map I talked to several people including Dan Corcoran concerning the existing Ford Park aerial photo/topo map. The feeling is the map is ,fairly accurate, within 1° of vertical variation. The cost to enlarge to the required architects scale is approximately $25 and would have a 2' vertical variation. Jim Morter accepted the map with these variations. BOND - ELECTIONe -Bond Costs - Steve Jeffers from Kirkland Moore will be providing this. -Election Costs - Jeffers will provide this information Judges Ballots/election materials Legal Assistance Public relations -Schedule of payment I have asked Steve Jeffers to do several scenarios on payments based on a 4.5 million dollar construction project, 20 year bonds and assuming the TOV would participate in landscaping and parking costs. Jeffers will provide this information. -Costs TOV will be asked to accept Landscaping outside of buildin and fenced area Irrigation, plantings, lights for plantings, grading, trees, sod, etc. $190,000 - Landscaping inside fenced area, outside the building. Plantings, sod, irrigation, walks, planting, lighting, etc. $55,000. Parking The plan currently calls for 195 parking spaces, 50 currently exist, 145 would be built. Cost per space is $750 each or $108,750. TO: VMRD BOARD MEMBERS FROM: PAT DODSON DATE: APRIL 20, 1989 SUBJECT: VAIL GOLF SUB COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS The Golf sub committee met with the following in attendance: George Knox, Gail Molloy, Ken Wilson, Steve Satterstrom and Pat Dodson They discussed and made the following recommendations: Golf Course Restaurant Employees: -Satterstrom recommended VMRD issue two 6 day passes to the golf course restaurant. The passes would be assigned to two restaurant individuals. -1 cart would be available for use by the restaurant to transport supplies between CH and SH. -No free carts -All other .restaurant employees will be treated the same as the general public. TOV employee passes: -The committee members discussed briefly the recommendation of the board, at their April 12 meeting, and would like the board to consider not allowing TOV employees the ability to upgrade the 6 day pass. The reason being they would like to discourage heavy pass use on Saturday - want it available for guest playa VMRD has set a policies for their own employees that would accomplish that goal and would like the TOV to adopt the same philosophy. VMRD Golf Employee passesJpolicies: -No one will be eligible to play Golf on Saturdays. Golf course employees who work 30 hours or more will receive a 6 day golf pass and have cart privileges. Golf pros and asst g-ros will be eligible to play golf at any time as long as it is in the line of performing their duties - they must be working at the time. Range personnel are not entitled t:o golf and cart privileges This policy was recommended for both Satterstrom's and Ben's crews. If these employees wish to play tennis or ice skate they must pay $25 for a pass. If VMRD board agrees with the ai=orementioned policies you need to approve this. ~C~u APR ~ 4' ~ggg April 21', 1989 Board of County Commissioners Eagle County Courthouse 551 Broadway Eagle, Colorado 81631 RE: Proposed Eagle Valley TV Metropolitan District Gentlemen/Mesdames: We are writing in opposition to the proposed Eagle Valley TV Metropolitan District. We don't believe the issues of free TV signals and mosquito control are important enough to justify creating an addi- tional taxing authority in Eagle County.. The availability of cable TV and the option of a satellite dish for those who do not have that option allows individuals to make their own choice on receiving additional TV signals. There are enough necessary and important services that are supported by property taxes without adding to that tax burden to subsidize TV signals and mosquito control.

A good deal of time has been spent discussing the choice of an 800 phone number to be included in potential advertising and marketing brochures. To help guide this selection process we have developed the call-to- action criteria which is attached. It is not our intent to exclude the.VRA as the fulfillment center if they can satisfy the Valley marketing needs for a call-to-action. On April 10, the Marketing Board received responses from 44 agencies who have been asked to pro-rate professional guidance in developing the boards future marketing efforts. By the end of April, a single preliminary marketing plan will be ready to discuss in detail with yourselves, the Avon Council and other interested parties. We are looking forward to our meeting on May 3rd in Avon. Sincerely, - ~_ G ti ~ s Kent ers - VAII; SSOCIATES, INC.
