Ross Perot The Perot Group 12377 Merit Drive, Suite 1600 Dallas, Texas 75251 Dear Mr. Perot: As you know, last January the Town of Vail purchased a 106 acre site in Edwards for the possible development of employee housing and recreation facilities. Since the county-wide election failed last spring, we have been exploring various ways in which we might be able to work with the private sector to develop this land appropriately. It is my opinion that an employee village could be developed on that site with a well designed layout of apartment units for affordable housing combined with necessary recreation facilities to serve the working people of this area. The parcel of land the Town owns is perfectly suited for this type of development as it is quite flat and has good accessibility to I-70. Last winter you shared with me the concept of gathering together a group of people to explore the development and funding of an organization to address the current employee housing challenge. I derived from our conversation that you share our concern regarding the critical matter of affordable employee housing and you would be willing to speak to various potential investors regarding the development of employee housing. We have formulated some conceptual plans, along the lines which you addressed last winter, and we have tabulated some costs associated with the development of the Edwards site. If possible, we would like to share our concepts with you and perhaps begin efforts toward helping Vail's housing and recreation needs. Mr. H. Ross Perot September 20, 1990 Page 2 If you are going to be in Vail soon, we would welcome the opportunity to get together with you. Otherwise, we would be happy to come to Dallas or meet you at some mutually acceptable location to discuss this matter further. I hope all is going well for you and your family. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sinc ly, Rondall V. Phillips Town Manager RUP/bsc cc: Vail Town Council ~ . - ~ ,y .

Fitz Sales Associate Gore Range Properties, Inc./ Better Homes and Gardens 511 LionsHead Mall Vail, Colorado 81657 Dear Anne: The Town Council asked that I answer your letter to them concerning money budgeted for Stevens Park in Intermountain. During the current year of 1990 there is $30,000 budgeted for design of Stevens Park. We hope~to be able to get started on the design aspects of that project later this fall. Through the Council's capital improvement program deliberations, there is an amount of $151,000 currently budgeted for 1991 for construction of the first phase of Stevens Park. This budget has not been finally adopted, but 1 am not aware of anything at the present time that would change the status of those funds being budgeted for Stevens Park for next year. As the design process begins later this fall, we hope you will be involved in commenting on what you would like to see in the park and encouraging your neighbors in Intermountain to be involved as well. Hopefully, this park will be another wonderful improvement for the Intermountain area in addition to the street improvement program which is occurring there this year. Sinc ely, Rondall U.

Rose, Mayor P.O. Box 2101 Vail, CO 81658 Dear Kent, Well it is that time of year again and while we gear up for another ski season it is also time for the Town of Vail to work towards a new budget for 1991. Several years ago the Town dedicated funds for the park in Intermountain and if memory serves me the amount was somewhere in the $30,000 range. At this point in time it is easy to assume that the original budget will not be adequate to provide the sort of improvements necessary to satisfy the needs of our neighborhood. So while the budget issues are fresh in your mind I would like to ask you to support an increase in the budget set aside for the park in Intermountain to ensure that it is consistent to the other fine parks through out the Town of Vail. Xour cooperation in this matter will be greatly appreciated!!!! Cord~ia~~1y, GO / RAN PRO ERTIES, INC.•/ BE TER HO ES D GARDENS Ann D.

Frontage Road West Vail, Colorado 81657 Dear Ron: Yesterday, the League's Municipal Finance and Government Issues Committee met (see enclosure). We raised to the Committee Vail's request on League involvement with a mandatory bottle deposit bill. This was sent to this Committee by the Policy Committee in May. The Committee by consensus decided not to pursue the issue. The feeling was. that voluntary efforts appear to be_working well. Also, there was concern expressed that this type of legislation would meet with heated opposition. The question was posed by several of the Committee members whether this was something on which the League wanted to spend political capital. If you have any questions, please call me. est regards, S uel amet ssoci a Dir for Enclosure SDM/bp WORK SESSION FOLLOW-UP 9/21/90 Page 1 of 2 TOPIC :QUESTIONS FOLLOW-UP SOtIITIANS 8/8/89 WEST INTERMOUNTAIN ANNEXATION LARRY: Proceeding w/legal requirements for Marijke Brofos wilt be circulating petitions.

September 14, 1990 Public Works Department Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Dear Public Works Department: Before I get caught up in winter activities, I wanted to thank you for a couple of things. Thank you for changing the direction of the boards on the bike path by the sewer plant (now I don't have to worry about catching my wheel in the cracks) and thank you for the new signing on the bike path. It's hard to tell for sure, since the numbers of people have declined, but I think it is already helping. There seems to be less of a tendency for pedestrians and bikers to meander all over the paths. There is a very sharp (almost 90 degree) curve between the Westin tennis courts and West Vail which could use a sign of its own. Heading west it has to be taker. much slower than any other curve on the bike path. I often see skid marks going right off the edge, so a lot of bikers must crash there. Thank you for the hourly bus service to Intermountain. My mother-in-law visits for a month every July, and she enjoyed her visit this year more than any other because the bus service enabled her to come and go as she wished while we were working. (She's 82 years old.) I'm afraid the ridership wasn't enough to convince you to do it again next summer, but people weren't counting on it being availa- ble and probably made other arrangements. If they knew it was available (as it is in the winter) maybe it would get more usage. Anyway, thanks. We really appreciate the excellent service your department provides all year round. l 20-A • fie Aspen Times September 13, 1990 _ - ~ ~ ~ ~ .b .~~councif, Tax talks dela ed y . v u nti I bud et heari n s -start ~ ~ ~ , g g.

WHEREAS, there appears to be a demand throughout portions of Eagle County for an increase in the availability of the transmission of television signals without the need for subscribing to cable or obtaining a satellite dish; and WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Eagle County, Colorado (the "County") desires to allow the voters of Eagle County to decide whether there should be an additional tax levy to allow the County to establish, operate and maintain a county television relay and translator system for the benefit of Eagle County residents and visitors (hereinafter referred to as the "Project"); and WHEREAS, the amount of ad•valorem taxes the County is currently authorized to levy in 1991, as limited by C.R.S. § 29-1-301 (the "Act"), will be insufficient to finance the additional costs required to establish and operate the Project without unsatisfactory curtailment of other necessary county services; and WHEREAS, the County is authorized to increase its levy of ad valorem taxes in an amount exceeding the limitation imposed by the Act, provided that the question of increasing said levy is first submitted to and approved by a majority of the registered qualified electors of Eagle County voting on such a question; and -1- . WHEREAS, the additional revenue attributable to the increased tax levy, if approved by the electors of Eagle County, would be levied only in the amounts deemed necessary by the County for the Project, with subsequent years' levies based on the actual revenues which are so required; and WHEREAS, the ad valorem tax to be levied in excess of the limitation for the television translator and relay facilities can not and will not be in an amount greater than the amount of revenues required to be raised for such purposes during any year as specified by the provisions of any contract entered into by the County or any schedule of payments established for the payment of any obligation incurred by the County in regard thereto. To the extent that contractual obligations or capital expenditures have been approved, but actual revenues required for such purposes are not known at the time the levy is set, the County is statutorily able to base its levy on the estimated revenues which are so required for one year only and in subsequent years the levy shall be based on the .actual revenues which are so required; and WHEREAS, the proposal for a property tax increase may be submitted at the General Election to be held on November 6, 1990; and WHEREAS, this election shall be conducted by the Eagle County Clerk and . Recorder in accordance with the "Colorado Election Code of 1980," articles 1 to 13 of title 1, C.R.S.; and WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners has determined that there should be submitted to said electors a question of increasing the levy of ad valorem taxes in an amount exceeding the limitation imposed by the Act for the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part, the cost of establishing and operating the Project. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF THE COUNTY OF EAGLE, STATE OF COLORADO: Section 1. Certification of Question to Clerk anti Recorder for Primary Election. The following question shah be presented at the General Election to be held on Tuesday, November 6, 1990, between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. The boundaries of voting precincts, the precincts and the polling places for this election shall be the same as the boundaries, precincts and polling places of voting precincts for the General Election, published separately, but incorporated herein by reference. Section 2. Form of Ballot Question. At the General Election there shall be submitted to a vote of the registered qualified electors of Eagle County the following question: -2- r. , ti t 1 Question "Shall the Board of County Commissioners of Eagle County be granted authority to levy ad valorem taxes on all taxable property in said County in an amount exceeding the limitation imposed by C.R.S. § 29-1-301 (or successor provisions), such additional tax levy to be made in the year 1990 for collection in 1991 in an amount not exceeding $439,000 and the revenue derived therefrom to be included in determining such limitation in subsequent years, such additional revenues to be used to determine the feasibility of and if feasible, establishing, operating, administering and maintaining television relay and translator facilities for the benefit of the County?" For Additional Against Additional Property Tax Levy Property Tax Levy Note: Due to limitations of topography, economics, technology and licensing requirements, areas within the county will not receive television signals from this system. This additional levy would result in an estimated increase of taxes of $11.25 per $100,000 of market value on residential property and $21.75 per $100,000 of market value on commercial, industrial, or vacant property and personal property. The estimates are based on an estimated total assessed valuation of $ Section 3. Use of Revenues The revenues generated from the ad valorem tax, if authorized and levied shall be used as follows: 1.) Initially, a study shall be conducted to determine the feasibility of the service plan. 2.) Upon determination that a plan is feasible, required facility sites, licenses and radio frequencies and a source for the required signals shall be established and acquired. 3.) Upon completion of the tasks in subparagraph 2 hereinabove and the accumulation of sufficient funds for capital expenditures, construction of the facilities may begin. 4.) Annual operation and maintenance shall be established upon completion of construction. -3- r~ Section 4. Publication: Cost of Election. The Clerk and Recorder shall publish the text of this Resolution proposing the assessment of an ad valorem tax in excess of the statutory limitation three (3) separate times, a week apart, in the official newspaper of Eagle County. The cost of the election shall be paid by the general fund of the County. Section 5. Canvassing of Votes. The votes cast at the General Election shall be canvassed, the returns thereof made, and the results thereof declared in the manner provided for elections of County officers by the Colorado election law. Section 6. Continuing Authority to Lew. If a majority of all the votes cast on the question herein prescribed to be submitted at the General Election shall be in favor of an additional tax levy for the purposes stated in .said question, it shall then be lawful for the Board of County Commissioners to authorize the proper officers of the County to proceed to make an increased levy in the year 1990 for the collection in 1991 in an amount not exceeding ~Y3~ poc n~i+ls; in accordance with the proposal so approved at the election. The authority to increase any or all of the levy authorized in the question, if conferred at the election by the registered qualified electors authorized to vote thereon, shall be deemed and considered a continuing authority to increase the levy so authorized at one time, or from time to time, and neither the partial exercise of the authority so conferred, nor any lapse of time, shall be considered as exhausting or limiting the full authority so conferred by the electors voting in favor of said question. Section 7. Confirmation of Prior Actions. All actions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Resolution, heretofore taken by the officers of the County, whether elected or appointed, directed toward holding the General Election are hereby ratified, approved and confirmed.

Box 3038 Vail, Colorado 81658 Dear Elaine: Just two years ago at this time the Vail Symposium was held at Eagle's Nest and many important issues pertaining to the future of Vail were discussed. Following that Symposium, I wrote a letter to Bob Knous, then President of the Vail Valley Foundation, encouraging the Foundation to seriously consider taking the Symposium under its educational wing and suggesting that the Symposium could be an important aspect of the Foundation's Vail 2000 proposal. In that role, the Vail Symposium could become an annual forum for community .education and input concerning the future of Vail. A copy of that letter is attached. As we are two days away from another Vail Symposium to be held at Eagle's Nest with a fine program outline for.. once again discussing the future of Vail, I want to encourage you to continue dialogue with the Vail Valley Foundation about the possibility of the Vail Symposium being a part of the Vail 2000 plan. It seems to be a natural fit and could enhance the role of both the Vail Valley Foundation and the Vail Symposium if your efforts were combined. Perhaps with this idea being broached once again on the eve of the 21st Vail Symposium, the issue could be an item for discussion at some point during Saturday's program. I congratulate you and the Symposium organization for planning a fine program once again and wish you the best as that program unfolds on Saturday. Sin r y, R ndall V.

Box 309 Vail, CO 81658 Dear Bob: Last weekend, the 19th Vail Symposium was held at Eagle's Nest, with the • help and participation of the Vail Valley Foundation: We greatly appreciate the Foundation's help and interest, and feel it was a successful event for all who attended. As we have discussed before, I cannot help but think how natural it would be for the Vail Valley Foundation to take primary responsibility for the Symposium in the future. As the Foundation seeks to become further involved in educational offerings for our Valley, a fitting undertaking might be this event of which 1990 marks its twentieth year. Perhaps the Foundation could utilize the Symposium as an aspect of its Vail 2000 proposal the Symposium becoming an annual forum for community education and input: I realize, in the wake of the World Championships' success, the Foundation is currently inundated with requests to take the lead on many worthwhile programs, which cannot all be accommodated with your current staff size. However, as there is already a strong Symposium Committee, much of the "leg-work" for the event would not fall squarely on the Foundation. The very competent Symposium Committee, headed by Elaine Kelton, would continue to deal with all of the planning and logistical needs. Their efforts, combined with the Foundation's fund-raising capabilities and expertise in hosting events of the highest caliber, could result in the Symposium's true blossoming. r . , • Mr. Bob Knous 9/14/89 Page 2 Bob, it is becoming difficult to find much enthusiasm or support from the Vail Town Council Members for the Town's involvement in the Symposium, other than financial. I am sure you would agree that the reduction or loss of this event, particularly with its successful 20-year history, would be a lost opportunity and resource for the Vail Valley.

Frontage Road Vail, CO. 81657 Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, Regional Literacy Hearings are bring held across the State of Colorado this fall. The purpose of these hearings is to gather information about the need for adult literacy education and for funding for such programs in Colorado. Currently, the State does not fund any adult basic education programs even though there are an estimated 400,000 functionally literate and illiterate people in the state. (Please see enclosed information on the costs of literacy.) For the purpose of these hearings multi-county regions have been identified. Our region is a seven county area including Eagle, Pitkin, Grand, Park, Chaffee, Lake, and Summit Counties. A panel of seven state legislators, one business person from our region, members of the Adult Literacy Commission, the State Board of Education, and the Colorado Department of Education will hear testimony supporting the need for funding for adult basic education programs in our region. Three to four testifiers have been selected from each county to present information and demonstrate the need for these programs. Hopefully, this testimony will broaden our own awareness as well as convince the legislators on the panel to support upcoming legislation for the funding of adult basic education. The Regional Literacy Hearing for our region will be held on October 2, 1990 from 12:00-4:00 PM at the Vail Center of Colorado Mountain College, Cascade Village, Vail.

T H E E CON O M I C B E N E F I T S O F RaY f. Kilmer Deputy Commissioner E L I M I NAT I N G I L L I T E R A C Y I N C O L O R A D O Colorado's Strategic Plan far Economic Development establishes the economic revitalization of the state as a major priority to be addressed by the Governor, the Legislature, departments and agencies of state government, and the private sector (3--NOTE: Numbers in parentheses refer to sources listed on the back of this fact sheet). A major obstacle to economic development in Colorado is that an estimated 400,000 adults are functionally illiterate. The estimated rate of illiteracy--8•°s--means that approximately 200,000 adult Coloradans are lacking low-level literacy skills. An additional 200, 000 are estimated to be unable to perform moderately complex tasks, such as totaling a bank deposit entry and calculating a checkbook balance (6). To assess the cost of illiteracy to Colorado's economic development, data on Boulder, Colorado Springs, Denver, Fort Collins, and Greeley were used to represent major metropolitan areas, and data on Alamosa, Lake, Mesa, Morgan, and Prowers counties were selected to represent the five rural development regions (5, 2). The data examined for this sample of urban and rural areas in Colorado indicate several potential consequences of eliminating illiteracy which would contribute significantll•_to the economic revitalization of the state. In rural Colorado, the elimination of illiteracy could * increase money income per capita by $500 per year (4), * raise 20,000 people above poverty level (4), * save $9.3 million in public welfare spending annually (4), * decrease the incidence of teenage pregnancy (4), and * eliminate a socioeconomic handicap to disproportionate numbers of older persons, parents of school age children, and residents of rural areas (4). '9 i'r' In urban Colorado, the elimination of illiteracy could * increase money income per capita by $2,000 per year (5), * make 90,000 people employable and raise 35,000 people above poverty level (5), * decrease public spending on welfare by 96.5 million and increase tax revenues by $54.8 million (5, 1), * decrease the rate of serious crimes by 10% (5), and * decrease the incidence of teenage pregnancy (5), and * eliminate a socioeconomic handicap to disproportionate numbers of older persons, parents of pre-schoolers and school age children, and Hispanic, Black, and Native American persons (5). As these figures illustrate, the elimination of illiteracy in Colorado can play a significant role in marketing a new business image for Colorado, improving incentives for expanding existing businesses and locating new ones in the state, and promoting rural economic development.
