CITIZEN PARTICIPATION 7:35 2. County Commissioner Candidate's Campaign Statements 7:55 3. Public Hearing - Use of Town-Owned Mountain Bell Site for Affordable Housing. Action Requested of Council: Council approval of concept of making portions of the Mountain Bell site available for development of affordable housing. Background Rationale: The Town of Vail has received a $6 million dollar private activity bond allocation for 1990 from the State. The Town received this allocation based upon a.development proposal submitted to the Town by Tom Campbell of Professional Development Corporation, Memphis, Tennessee. Under this proposal, Professional Development would construct 120 housing units. Of these 120 units, 20% or 24 units, must be set aside for individuals earning 80% or less of median income for Eagle County. Professional Development has identified the Mountain Bell site as one of three sites on which to construct a portion of the 120 units. The other two sites are privately owned. The range of units proposed to be constructed on the Mountain Bell site is 48 to 65. Staff Recommendation: Staff is supportive of long term leasing the Mountain Bell site for a period of 15 years to allow the construction of these affordable housing units. 8:20 p.m. 4.

Brandmeyer, Town Clerk -2- y M 11 TO: Town Council FROM: Department of Community Development/Tom Braun DATE: October 16, 1990 RE: Amendments to the Pay in Lieu Parking Program I. INTRODUCTION The parking section of the zoning code has allowed for certain areas of the Town to be designated exempt from on-site parking requirements since 19'13. It was not until 1982, in conjunction with the adoption of the Village and Lionshead Urban Design Guide Plans, that the present parking program was established. The purposes, of the. program ,are to minimize vehicular traffic in the pedestrian areas of the Village and Lionshead and allow property owners an alternative .for meeting parking demand that may be created by remodels or infill development in these areas. To achieve these goals, the program requires property owners to pay for parking demand created by new development in lieu of providing parking on-site. There are two main issues with the program that are addressed by these amendments: 1. Any property located in the CCI or CCII zone districts is required to participate in this program. However, there are many properties, particularly in Lionshead, that are located a considerable distance from the Mall 'and have vehicular access that does not affect the pedestrianized area of the Mall. Allowing these properties to pay in lieu of providing parking on-site is inconsistent with the goals of the program. 2. As written, any property in CCI and CCII can remove existing on-site parking and pay into the parking fund to compensate for the spaces. There are benefits to removing spaces from the Village core, however, there are many other properties where the removal of existing spaces will provide no public benefit. The entire pay in lieu parking program, as outlined in section 18.52.160, will be repelled and reenacted. The most significant change to this section is that the Village and Lionshead will be addressed separately. The amendment will also set forth the specific conditions in which the parking program may be used to satisfy parking requirements in these two areas. 1 II. SUMMARY OF CHANGES The following is a brief summary of the major changes proposed to the parking program. Paraaraph A. The introduction has been expanded and a purpose statement for the parking program has been added. An additional finding (compliance with' the fiown's Master Plan), to be made by the Council when exempting an area has also been added. The ..reference to loading areas has been deleted because this program is implemented for parking spaces only. Paraarach B. Paragraph B lists the two approved exempted areas, the Village and Lionshead, and specifies how the program can be used in these areas.' The only change to Vail Village is that the Lodge at Vail, Lodge Tower Condominiums, Mill Creek Court Building, Village Center and the Sonnenalp will not be able to utilize the program to remove existing spaces. In addition, if existing development on these parcels is demolished and subsequently rebuilt, new `parking. demand would be met by providing parking on- ste. These properties have. been singled out because they have vehicular access that does not directly impact the Village Core. These properties would still utilize the parking program for any parking demand created by additions, remodels, etc. It shou~.d be noted that the Sonnenalp was previously not eligible to participate in the Parking Program. There are many changes to how the program will be implemented in Lionshead. First, the area eligible for participation in the program has been reduced to properties with frontage on the Lionshead Mall. Second, the program can only be used for meeting parking demand created by new development or a change of use - the program cannot be used to compensate for removing existing spaces. Finally., if a property is demolished and rebuilt, the parking demand cannot be met through payment into the program. The reason for this last change is that if-a building is demolished, it is then feasible to construct additional off- street parking on-site. Paragraph C. This paragraph outlines details pertaining to the implementation of .the .program. A number of these changes simply consolidate and reorganize how information is presented. The payment schedule has been changed from the anniversary of the building permit to the .anniversary of the first payment, the property owners signature is now required on the promissory nose (if the applicant is not the owner), and a provision requiring a minimum payment of $1,000 per space has been deleted. 2 1 While fees assessed by the parking program have been discussed, the current fees of $3,000"per."'commercial" space and $5,000 per "residential" space are not changed by"this amendment. A Town Council work session to discuss the fee structure is scheduled for October 23. If they are to be made, changes to the parking ..fees will not be known until after this meeting. The staff would like to proceed with amendments to this section of the code as proposed, and initiate any changes to the fee structure at a later date. Implementing the. changes proposed by these amendments would not be affected by subsequent changes to the fee structure. Section 18.52.180 This section of the parking regulations states that any parking variance shall be required to contribute to the parking fund. This section essentially implies that "pay in lieu" can be done anywhere. in the Town through the variance process. This provision is in direct conflict with the purpose of the parking program. The section should be deleted. The Parking Program Overlay Maps referred to in the Ordinance will be presented Tuesday evening. Reduced copies of these maps will accompany the Ordinance and will be completed prior to second reading. 3 ORDINANCE NO. 36 Series of 1990 - AN ORDINANCE REPEALING AND REENACTING SECTION 18.52.160, PARKING EXEMPTIONS AND ,REPEALING SECTION 18.52.180, VARIANCES OF THE TOWN OF VAIL MUNICIPAL CODE AND SETTING FORTH THE DETAILS IN REGARD THERETO. WHEREAS, the parking exemption section is in place to minimize vehicular traffic in certain areas and provide property owners in certain areas an alternative for satisfying parking demand created by new development; and WHEREAS, amendments to the parking exemption section are necessary to ensure the utilization of the program is consistent with its purpose; and WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 18.66.140, the Planning and Environmental Commission held a public hearing on the proposed amendments to Section 18.52, Off-Street Parking and Loading, and has submitted its recommendation to the Town Council; and WHEREAS, The Town Council has held a public hearing as required by Chapter 18.66 of the Vail Municipal Code. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF VAIL, COLORADO, THAT: Section 1 Section 18.52.160 is hereby repealed and reenacted to read as follows: 18.52.160 PARKING EXEMPTIONS A. There are unique areas in certain parts of the Town that will benefit by prohibiting the construction of new off-street parking facilities and by the gradual elimination of existing off-street parking facilities. The Town Council may exempt certain areas from the off- street parking standards that require off-street parking to be located on site if alternative means will meet the off-street parking needs of the area. The purposes of exempting an area from off-street parking standards are to reduce vehicular traffic in pedestrianized areas and provide property owners in pedestrianized areas an alternative for satisfying parking demand created by new development. 1 Property owners or applicants in exempted areas shall satisfy parking requirements by paying a fee in lieu of providing off-street parking on site. In recognition of the unique characteristics of these areas, specific conditions and limitations on the use of the Parking _ Program may be imposed on an exempted area. The Town Council may initiate a hearing to declare an area exempt from off-street parking requirements on its own motion, or a petition to declare an area exempt may be filed by a property owner. Upon making of such motion, or filing of such petition, the Town Council shall consider the proposal in accordance with Sections 18.66.130-~60 of this code. Prior to exempting any area from the off-street parking requirements of this chapter, the town council shall determine the following: 1. That the exemption is in the interests of the area to be exempt and in the interests of the town at large; 2. That the exemption will not confer any special. privilege or benefit upon properties or improvements in the area to be exempted, which privilege or benefit is not conferred on similarly situated properties elsewhere in the Town; 3. That the exemption will not be detrimental to adjacent properties or improvements in the vicinity of the area to be exempt; 4. That suitable and adequate means will exist for the provision of public, community, group. or common parking facilities; and for financing, operating and maintaining such facilities; and that such parking facilities shall be fully adequate to meet the existing and projected needs generated by all uses in the area to be exempted; 5. That the exemption of any area shall be consistent with applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan. B. The Town Council finds that the Vail Village area and the Lionshead area meet the criteria in Section 18.52.160 (A), and are declared to be exempt areas with the following conditions and limitations: 1. Vail Village a. Owners of all property located in areas A and B, as indicated on the Vail Village Parking Program Overlay Map (attached as exhibit A 2 and incorporated into this ordinance by reference), shall be required to pay a fee in lieu of providing off-street parking to satisfy parking requirements created by additions, new development, or any change of _ use, as required by this chapter. b. In order to reduce vehicular traffic in the pedestrianized area of the Vail Village, property owners or applicants located in Area A of the Vail Village Parking Program Overlay Map, shall be entitled to pay a fee in lieu of providing on-site parking as required by this chapter upon the removal of existing ' off-street parking spaces. c. Property owners or applicants in Area B of the Vail Village Parking Program Overlay Map shall not be entitled to pay a fee in lieu of providing on-site parking as required by this chapter upon the removal of existing off- street parking spaces. In the event existing development on property located in Area B of the Vail Village Parking Program Overlay Map is demolished and subsequently redeveloped, the property owners shall meet the off-street parking requirements of this chapter for such redevelopment with off-street parking.on-site and shall not be entitled to pay a fee in lieu thereof. 2. Lionshead a. Owners of all property indicated on the Lionshead Parking Program Overlay Map (attached as exhibit B and incorporated into this ordinance by reference) shall be required to pay a fee in lieu of providing off-street parking to satisfy parking requirements of this chapter created by additions, new development or any change of use. b. Property owners or applicants located on the Lionshead parking Program Overlay Map shall not be entitled to pay a fee in lieu of providing on-site parking as required by this chapter, upon the removal of existing off- street parking spaces. c. In the event existing development on property located in the Lionshead Parking Program Overlay Map is demolished and subsequently 3 redeveloped, the property owners shall meet the off-street parking requirements of this chapter for such redevelop*_aent with off- street parking on-site and shall not be entitled to pay a fee in lieu thereof. C. Where property owners required or permitted by the provisions of this section to pay a fee in lieu of providing off-street parking, the fee shall be calculated and paid as follows: 1. The parking fee for uses listed in section 18.52.100, with the exception of dwelling units or accommodation units, shall be three thousand dollars per space. The fee for dwelling and accommodation units shall be five thousand dollars per space. The parking fee for uses not listed in Section 18.52.100 shall be established by the Town Council. When a fractional number of spaces results from the application of the parking requirement schedule (Section 18.52.100), the. parking fee shall be calculated using that fraction. This applies to the calculation of the parking fee and not for on-site requirements. 2. For additions or enlargements of any existing~~ building or change of use that would increase the total number of parking spaces required, an additional parking fee will be required only for such addition, enlargement or change of use and not for the entire building or use. No refunds will be paid by the Town to the applicant or owner. 3. The owner or applicant has the option of paying the total parking fee at the time of issuance of a building permit or paying over a five-year period. If payment is to be made over a five year period, the first payment shall be paid on or before the date the building permit is issued. Four annual payments will be due to the Town of Vail on the anniversary of the first payment. Interest of ten percent per annum shall be paid by the applicant on the unpaid balance. If the owner or applicant chooses to pay the fee over a five year period, he or she shall be required to sign a promissory note which describes the total fee due, the schedule of payments, and the interest due. In the event the applicant is 4 r: not the owner of the property, the owner of record shall also sign the promissory note. 4. If any parking funds have been paid in accordance with this section and if subsequent thereto a special or general improvement district is formed and assessments levied for the purpose of paying for parking improvements, the payor shall be ' credited against the assessment with the amount previously paid. 5. The parking fee established by the Town Council shall treat all similarly situated owners and applicants equally. If any payor~s funds are not used by the Town for one of the purposes specified in 18.52.16 B. 6., within five years from the date of payment, the unused portion of the funds shall be returned to the payor upon his or her application. In accounting for funds expended from the parking fund, the Finance Department shall use a first in/first out rule. 6. The parking fund established in this section shall receive and disburse funds for the purpose of conducting parking studies or evaluations, the construction of parking facilities, the maintenance of parking facilities, the payment. of bonds or other indebtedness for parking ~ , facilities, and administrative services relating to parking. Section 2 If any part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance; and the Town Council hereby declares it would have passed this Ordinance, and each part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase thereof, regardless of the fact that any one or more parts, sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid. Section 3 The Town Council hereby finds, determines and declares that this Ordinance is necessary and proper for the health, safety and welfare of the Town of Vail and inhabitants thereof. Section 4 The repeal or the repeal and reenactment of any provisions of the Vail Municipal Code as provided in this Ordinance shall not affect any right which has accrued, any duty imposed, any 5 e violation that occurred prior to the effective date hereof, any prosecution commenced,~nor any other action or proceeding as commenced u7der or by virtue of the provision repealed or repealed and reenacted.

Kent R. Rose, Mayor ATTEST: Pamela A. Brandmeyer, Town Clerk 6 tR j TO: Town Council FROM: Department of Community Development Tom Braun DATE: October 16, 1990 RE: Amendments to Gross Residential Floor Area I. INTRODIICTION: REASONS FOR AMENDMENTS The.bulk and mass of residential development has historically been controlled by building height and site coverage regulations. A limit on square footage, traditionally used to control density for non-residential development, has increasingly been used by communities as a third factor in controlling building bulk and mass. These zoning tools are used in Vail and each plays a role in ultimately defining the scale of residential development in the town. In.addition to the well documented problems of enforcement and administration, the ability of these regulations to effectively control bulk and mass has been questioned. Existing inadequacies in site coverage and gross residential floor area (i.e. loopholes), have become evident over the past few years. Generally, the problems with the Town's bulk and mass controls are: GRFA The existing "credit system" creates many administrative problems and the definition does not effectively limit the development of floor area. Site Coverage The organization of site coverage .regulations is confusing and the definition allows for development in excess of the regulation's intent. Building Heiaht While there are some isolated difficulties in measuring building height, these problems were. not considered a high priority and are not addressed as a 'part of this amendment process. It should be noted, however, that during the public meeting process a number of architects requested very slight increases in allowable building height for structures on steep slopes. Amendments to site coverage and GRFA are designed to .simplify administration, close loopholes and prevent development that is inconsistent with the intent of the regulations. In quantified terms, the following amendments propose little change to existing regulations. The maximum 1 allowable site coverage is still 20~ of the site area and GRFA essentially remains a .25 ratio of building to site - area (for single family, two family and primary/secondary lots). Amendments- center around definition changes that clarify how-site coverage and GRFA will be measured. Amendments to GRFA and site coverage were presented to the PEC at their October 8th meeting. Amendments to site coverage have been tabled for further discussion. However, the staff and Commission feel-amendments to GRFA are ready for consideration by-the Council. The accompanying . :ordinance outlines the proposed amendments to GRFA. These changes are. essentially what was discussed at the last Council/PEC worksession. One exception is that the amount of GRFA to be "built back into the ratio" has been increased from 4'25 to 475 square feet per unit. This increase was prompted. by discussion at the last Task Force meeting. This memo assesses the ramifications of these amendments and the rational for~what has been proposed. II. THE GRFA RATIO The proposed GRFA definition does two things, first, it simplifies. the method of calculating GRFA by eliminating all allowances and credits (with the exception of garages) and by including all floor area within the exterior walls of a structure in GRFA calculations. Secondly, the definition reduces the amount of square footage that can be built on a lot. The resulting reduction in GRFA is not an objective of this effort and therefore the following modifications to the GRFA ratio are proposed in order to compensate for the decrease in allowable GRFA. In terms of how GRFA is measured, the following changes will be made through this amendment (square footage indicated is on a per unit basis): Credits Credits for storage (200 sq. ft.), airlocks (25 sq. ft.) and mechanical (50 sq. ft.) space will be eliminated. Square footage for these credits (275 sq. ft. per unit), will be added to the GRFA ratio on a per unit basis but only if the unit is constructed. In the past, credits were given based on the allowable number of units per lot. For example, on a duplex lot, if only one unit was built, the owner could still utilize 400 sq. ft. of storage, even if the second unit was not constructed. Stairwells and Elevator Shafts, Under the existing definition, stairwells and elevator shafts are counted as GRFA at the lowest level only. The proposed 2 t ' definition will count stairwells and elevator shafts at each level. based on minimum building code requirements for stairs, 150 square feet will be added to-the GRFA ratio. "Covered Roofs or Decks" Covered or roofed spaces that are enclosed by no more than 3 walls and that are less than 25$ open will now count as GRFA (See GRFA definition, item No. 4). 'Habitable Snace" The term "habitable space" has been eliminated from the GRFA definition. This term allowed the construction of "void spaces" throughout units. Crawl Snace and Attics The proposed GRFA definition is ` designed to count everything within the enclosing walls of a structure as GRFA. The only areas not calculated as GRFA are attics and crawl spaces that satisfy floor to~ceiling height requirements (See GRFA definition items Nos 2 and 3). This is essentially unchanged from existing regulations. A 12 sq. ft. opening is allowed to access the crawl space, instead of the current nine sq. ft. Miscellaneous SAaces Interior spaces such as vents, flues, fireplaces, landings and bay windows now count as GRFA. 50 sq. ft. has been added to the GRFA ratio to compensate for this change. . Measurements Square footage is still measured from the interior face of exterior walls. However, the "interior face" has been clarified to prevent wall modifications designed to reduce square footage. Garage Allowance, This is the only "credit" remaining ~in the proposed system. No change is proposed to this section. A single family lot would have a maximum garage allowance of 600 sq. ft. A primary/secondary or duplex lot may have a garage allowance of up to 1200 sq. ft. even if only one unit is constructed as the allowance is based on allowable units. While the actual numbers will vary due to building design, it is estimated that under the proposed GRFA definition, if no compensatidn were made for square footage, approximately 950 square feet of floor area would be taken away from each duplex and P/S lot in the Town. This 950 sq. ft. number is based on the following existing credits, average stairwell area, and void areas: 3 r r Duplex, Primary/Secondary or~ Sinctle Family Hillside Residential Storage Credit 200 sq. ft. 400 sq. ft. Airlock Credit 25 sq. ft. 50 sq. ft. Mechanical Credit 50 sq. ft. 100 sq. ft. Overlapping Stairs 150 sq. ft. 300 sq. ft. Flues, Vents, Bay Windows 50 sq. ft. 100 sq. ft. Total 475 sq. ft. 950 sq. ft. In order to compensate for square footage which would be lost if the proposed amendments are adopted, it is necessary to modify the existing GRFA calculations by building 950 square feet back into the system for each duplex and p%s lot and 475 square feet for each single family lot. Caretaker units allowed in certain single family zone districts or hillside residential zone districts will also be allowed to utilize 475 sq. ft. Increasing the existing .25 GRFA ratio is the most direct way to add square footage to a lot. Allowable GRFA is based on lot size; the larger the lot, the more GRFA allowed. As a result, it. is difficult, if not impossible to modify the existing ratio so that all lots receive 950 square feet or 475 sq. ft. increasing the ratio will "award" more square footage to larger lots than smaller ones. While many alternatives have been studied for building this square footage back into the system, the most equitable way to compensate for the reduction in square footage under the new definition is to add 475 square feet per unit to the existing .2~~ ratio. Essentially this is what is now being done now under the existing credit system. Language for Amendments to they GRFA ratio: The recommended alternative will amend the density control section of the Two-Family, Primary/Secondary and Hillside Residential zone districts to read: 1. Density Control - Primary/Secondary and Two-Family Zone: Districts Not more than a total of two dwelling units shall be permitted on each site with only one dwelling unit permitted on lots less than fifteen thousand square feet. The following GRFA shall be permitted on each site: a. Twenty-five square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of the first fifteen thousand 4 t square feet of site area; plus b. Ten square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of site area over fifteen thousand square feet, not to exceed thirty thousand square feet of site area; plus c. Five square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of site area in excess of thirty thousand square feet. In addition to the above, four hundred seventy-five square feet of gross residential floor area (GRFA) shall be permitted for each constructed dwelling unit. 2. Density Control - Single Family Not more than one dwelling unit shall be permitted on each site. The following GRFA shall be permitted on each site: a. Twenty-five square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of the first twelve, thousand five hundred square feet of site area; plus b. Ten square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of site area over twelve thousand five hundred square feet. In addition to the above, four hundred seventy-five square ,feet of gross residential floor area (GRFA) shall be permitted for each constructed dwelling unit. 3. Density Control - Hillside Residential Not more than one dwelling unit plus one caretaker unit shall be permitted on each site. The following GRFA shall be permitted on each site: a. Twenty square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of the first twenty-one thousand seven hundred eighty square feet of site area, plus b. Five square feet of GRFA for each one hundred square feet of site area over twenty-one thousand seven hundred eighty square feet. 5 r In addition to the above, four hundred seventy-five square . feet of gross residential floor area (GRFA) shall be permitted for each constructed dwelling unit. III. IMPLICATIONS OF THESE AMENDMENTS Approval of these amendments raises the question of how they will. affect approved but.unbuilt projects and projects that are in the review process. Unless clarified by the Council, these _amendments will take effect five days after the publication of the ordinance following second reading approval. If approved on first and second reading, the amendments could take effect as early as November 14. ~Some~provision should be added to the ordinance clarifying how these changes will affect these types of projects that are "in process". There .are a variety of alternatives for when these amendments could take affect. The staff would like to see them implemented as soon as possible, while making some allowances for projects that are in process. This issue will be discussed at Tuesday's meeting and finalized in the ordinance for second reading. There is at least one example of an existing SDD (The Dauphinais .Subdivision, SDD No. 22) where GRFA on single family lots is established by ordinance. In this case, the project is affected by the GRFA definition change, but does not benefit from the new GRFA ratio (because the GRFA is set by ordinance). Amendments to this SDD will be initiated to modify the permitted GRFA or "grandfather" the use of existing credits. IV. RECOMMENDATION When evaluating these amendments, it is important to understand the purpose, and limitations of zoning regulations. A basic premise of zoning is that regulations apply uniformly to all projects and all parcels throughout the Town. While this assures consistent treatment, it does not account for unique site characteristics or unique design proposals. Development must "fit" into the parameters established by the zoning regulations. As a result, there is a limit to what zoning can do to control and define development that will occur in Vail. There will always be examples of development that "seems appropriate" or "acceptable", but does not fit zoning standards. Likewise, there will be development that meets zoning standards, but for other reasons may be considered "unacceptable". In the case of the former, .the variance process is in place to review proposals that deviate from zoning requirements. In the latter situation, Vail's design review guidelines provide a final measure of control over development. 6 Design review and the variance process provide both flexibility and control .in the development review process - a level of flexibility and control not found in zoning standards. Design review and the variance process are the mechanisms available to respond to unique or special circumstances. There will always be sites with unique characteristics (physical hardships), that will warrant relief from zoning standards. Likewise, design review provides an avenue for modifying an inappropriate design that otherwise satisfies zoning standards. While !'field testing" has been done during the development of these regulations, there is no way to definitively state what . impact these proposals will have on new development. There are unique circumstances. involved in every development, and no single zoning regulation can be expected to address every situation that may arise. Zoning controls provide a framework for guiding development. The design guidelines, and to a lesser degree the variance process, will ultimately determine the characteristics of new development. Amendments to the GRFA and site coverage definitions may not solve every "perceived" problem with development in Vail. Some may consider these changes a further encumbrance on development, while others may regard them as not going far enough to control development. In evaluating these amendment proposals, it is important to consider the underlying goals of this effort: 1. To clarify the intent of the regulations; and 2. To simplify the administration of the regulations; and 3. To close the loopholes inherent in existing regulations. The proposed amendments will accomplish these goals and objectives. These proposed amendments mark the first step towards the comprehensive revision of the Town of Vail Zoning Code. Many other amendments will be presented over the next year.' These amendments will be accomplished based on a work program as defined by the staff, PEC and Council. V. PEC ACTION ON THIS PROPOSAL The PEC recommended approval of this amendment proposal by 6-0 vote. While the vote was unanimous, not all elements of this proposal were supported by all members of the Commission. Nonetheless, the Commission felt this proposal would dramatically improve the GRFA system. Three commissioners, while in support 7 of the amendments, requested the following comments be related to the Council: Kathy Warren - felt the additional 100 square feet added into the GRFA ratio is unnecessary. Diana Donovan - felt the .amendments should move forward, but does not support adding 475 square feet to the development potential of a duplex lot if only one unit is built. Dalton Williams - felt that the credit for garages should be awarded on a per unit basis, i.e. a single family development on a duplex zoned lot should only get up to a 600 square foot credit. wp:pecgrfa 10/13/90 8 ' Policies on the Interpretation of Gross Residential Floor Area and Site Coverage The following policy statements shall be used by the Department of .Community Development for calculating gross residential floor area and site coverage. The purpose of these policies is to highlight significant changes in the calculation of GRFA and site coverage and clarify interpretive issues inherent in these new definitions. GRFA 1. Allowable garage area is awarded on a "per space basis", with a maximum of two spaces per allowable unit. Each garage space shall be designed with direct and unobstructed vehicular access. All floor area included in the garage credit shall be contiguous to a vehicular space. 2. Interior walls are included in GRFA calculations. For duplex and Primary/Secondary structures, common party walls shall be considered exterior walls. 3. Bay windows, fireplaces and mantels shall be included in GRFA calculations. 4. Vaulted spaces and areas "open to below" are not included in GRFA calculations. 5. At the discretion of the Director of Community Development . and. the Chief Building Official, crawl spaces created by a "stepped foundation" with a floor to ceiling height in excess of five feet may be excluded from GRFA calculations. Site Coverage 1. Bermed structures with portions of building elevations visible on any side, shall be included in site coverage calculations. totally underground structures that do not alter the natural topography of a site, shall not be included in site coverage calculations. 2. "Cut-outs" in roof overhangs shall be included in site coverage calculations. 3. A deck that is covered shall be counted as site coverage. The area for site coverage shall extend from the building face out to the railing. A four foot eave is allowed beyond the railing. If a roof eave extends beyond the point of the railing by more than four feet, the additional eave shall also count as site coverage.

The Town covenants that it shall at all times do and perform all acts and things permitted by law and which are necessary in order to assure that interest paid by the Town on the Note shall, for purposes of federal income taxation, not be includible in gross income under the Tax Code or any other valid provision of law. -8- WP194502-003/8 . (b) In particular, but without limitation, the Town further represents, warrants and covenants to comply with the following restrictions of the Tax Code, unless it receives an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel stating that such compliance is not necessary: (1) Gross proceeds of the Note shall not be used in a manner which will cause the Note to be considered "private activity bonds" within the meaning of the Tax Code. (2) The Note is not and shall not become directly or indirectly "federally guaranteed."

The Town further covenants that in the event it determines it is necessary to issue additional tax-exempt obligations (other than private activity bonds) in the calendar year 1990 or in calendar year 1991 which cause the aggregate amount of tax-exempt obligations to exceed $5,000,000 in either year, the Town will first receive an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that the issuance of such additional obligations will not cause the Note to be an "arbitrage bond" as such term is defined in the Tax Code. The Town recognizes that the issuance of additional tax-exempt obligations includes, but is not limited to, the issuance of tax-exempt notes, leases, loans and warrants. Section 14. F~irther Covenant.

No proceeds of the Note will be used (i) in a manner which would cause the Note to be a private activity bond, or (ii) to refund any other issue of government obligations. Accordingly, the Town hereby designates the Note as a "qualified tax-exempt obligation" pursuant to Section 265(b)(3)(B)(i) of the Tax Code. Section 17. Severability.

Brandmeyer, Town Clerk RESOLUTION #2~ Series of 1990 RESOLUTION # 23, SERIES OF 1990, A RESOLUTION OPPOSING CONGRESSIONAL MANDATE OF SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE COVERAGE WHEREAS, the Town of Vail considers reduction of the federal budget deficit of critical importance to the economic health of municipalities, states, and the nation as a whole; WHEREAS, the Town of Vail supports reduction of the federal budget deficit in an even-handed and balanced manner, through real reductions in spending and fair increases in select taxes; WHEREAS, the Town of Vail is gravely concerned with congressional inclination to transfer increasing proportions of the federal budget burden to state and local governments throughout the nation; WHEREAS, this transferred burden is most recently manifested in proposals to increase numerous taxes which would heavily impact municipal fiscal stability, including mandatory Social Security coverage for all state and local employees not covered by a public retirement plan and mandatory Medicare coverage for all employees; WHEREAS, such mandated coverage would amount to increased outlays by the Town of Vail, in particular, of $121,000 per year, without providing additional benefits or services to Vail's residents or guests; WHEREAS, such transference of federal expenditure burdens does not represent a real remedy for the nation's poor economic health, but simply exacerbates the already worsening financial situation of America's states and municipalities; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Town Council of the Town of Vail, Colorado, that: The Town of Vail strongly opposes reduction of the federal budget deficit through further transference of federal budget responsibility to the nation's states and municipalities, namely the mandating of Medicare coverage and Social Security coverage for all state and local employees not covered by a public retirement plan.

Frontage Road Vail, CO 81767 Dear Ron: I am enclosing financial statements for the Vail Alpine Garden for the fiscal year just ended on 9/30/90 and the operating budget for the coming year. These will update the previous financial statements submitted and complete the documents requested from your office to accompany our grant proposal to .the Town of Vail. The other requirements have been covered in the' proposal sent to your office earlier. When the Town of Vail granted funds to the Vail Alpine Garden two years ago, the money was budgeted from the Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund since it was to be used for the development of Ford Park. I hope that the Town staff will consider this as a possible source of funds again. If you have further questions about our proposal, please give me a call at 476-0103. Sincerely, Helen S.

I SP_P_ two problems with putting it nn the west side of the road: 1. It looks too steep once you make the turn alonq_ the parking structure 2. Twelve (12) parking places will be lost at the Vorlaufer Granted the latter is a personal concern, but the Town should recognize by taking the spaces away, owners and guest at the Vorlaufer_ will be taking twelve (12) spots away from the new parking structure. With the cost of $10 million, it doesn't seem to be the best use of tax dollars to funnel existinq_ parking places into the structure. A sidewalk already exists on the east side by All Seasons and to continue on this side will not eliminate any parking places and would appear to solve the side- walk issue, not to mention save money. May I hear from you regarding this? Thanks. Sincerely yours, \ Connie Knight cc: Town Council members Community Development staff Member Society of Professional Journalists U.S. Ski Writers Association MEMORANDUM T0: Town Council FROM: Larry Eskwith Ron Phillips DATE: October 16, 1990 SUBJECT: The Affordable Housing Proposal of Professional Development Corporation Town Councilmembers have apparently received a memorandum from Thomas H. Campbell of the Professional Development Corporation dated October 12, 1990 regarding his affordable housing proposal. It is the staff's opinion that Mr. Campbell is attempting to obtain decisions from the Town Council on issues which have not been fully analyzed by the staff or the Town Council, and which are premature for consideration for this evening's Town Council meeting. While there is indeed some urgency to making decisions relating to Mr. Campbell's proposal, some of the important issues which remain to be analyzed by the staff involve the following: 1. Is it more advantageous to the Town to sell or lease the Mountain Bell site to the Professional Development Corporation? 2. Does it make sense for the Town to purchase the two employee housing sites that are privately owned and then to lease those sites back to the Professional Development Corporation for development of employee housing? 3. What is the appropriate purchase price or rent for the Town to receive as consideration for the use of its property by the Professional Development Corporation? 4. State law gives the Town the right to set by ordinance income levels for the determination of who is qualified to lease the employee housing to be developed by the Professional Development Corporation. The Town needs to make a determination of what level of income is appropriate. 5. Bond counsel needs to prepare the necessary documents for a private placement of the bonds, the necessary ordinances for consideration by the Town of Vail, and related documents. The Town staff has sent the proposal of the Professional Development Corporation to individuals at Kirchner-Moore in Denver, who have a great deal of experience in doing financial analysis of these types of proposals. The Town has already met with Bob Irvin, bond counsel from Kouteck, Rock, and Campbell, to determine what steps need to be taken in order to ensure that the bonds are properly issued. It is Mr. Irvin's opinion that the type of deal the Professional Development Corporation is proposing is extremely difficult to put together and sell, and that it must be done very carefully. In addition, he is convinced that it is impossible to get the work done on the bonds prior to the end of 1990. He is presently in the process of drafting a calendar setting forth what he thinks is a realistic timetable for all steps necessary prior to the issuance of the bonds. j Memorandum - Town Council October 16, 1990 Page 2 Although it is important for the Town to act as expeditiously as possible in this matter, it is also important that the Town take whatever time is necessary to make informed decisions. The Division of Local Affairs (DOLA) has already indicated that it would be willing to take back the $6 million it has allocated for affordable housing in the Town of Vail for 1990 and reissue the $6 million, and perhaps more money, for affordable housing in 1991. _ Town staff strongly disagrees with the items that Mr. Campbell lists in paragraph 3 of his memorandum as needing to be done at this evening's meeting. Staff thinks that the key issue for discussion this evening is whether or not the Town Council wishes to proceed with employee housing on the Mountain Bell site and what it thinks the appropriate development density should be.

Mr. and Mrs. Schmetzko are the owners of two adjacent lots in West Vail, Colorado: Tract A, Vail Heights Filing No. 1 (also known as 2239 Chamonix Lane) and the unplatted, undeveloped 1 acre tract immediately to the north of Tract A. For each day from mid-May 1984 through the present the Town of Vail through its Public Works Department, directed by Stan Berryman, has occupied the Schmetzkos' property in West Vail and caused injury to it. Beginning in mid-May 1984, and continuing through the present,' the Town of Vail.has diverted water and debris flows onto the Schmetzkos' property, have used the property to store enormous amounts of earth and rubble and have constructed and maintained a drainage and debris flow channel across his property. The actions of the Town amount to a daily trespass, daily nuisance and daily conversion of the Schmetzkos' property rights, in addition to a de facto condemnation of Mr. and Mrs. Schmetzkos' entire real estate. Mr. and Mrs. Schmetzko request the sum of $400,000 as payment for the injuries caused them by the City. Had the City condemned the property in 1984 (or on any date subsequent to that date), the City would have been forced to pay the full market value of the property, in excess of $250,000. Mr. and Mrs. Schmetzko would have had the use of that money for the past 6 1/2 years and have lost interest they could have earned ej tt•' Town Council, Town of Vail City Attorney Town of Vail October 11, 1990 Page 2 from the condemnation proceeds. In addition, the Schmetzkos have incurred out-of-pocket expense, including attorneys' fees, and will likely continue to incur such expenses, including consulting fees and related expenses and travel expenses, until the matter is resolved. The Schmetzkos will agree to compro-- raise their claim against the Town as outlined in the enclosed letter to Stan Berryman, Director of Public Works, provided we receive word of the Town's willingness to resolve the matter ' along the lines outlined in the letter to Mr. Berryman within the next ten days.

ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO AOIII.4796 - FACSIMILE (303) 779'0740 303-7T-0200 October 11, 1990 Stan Berryman, Director Department of Public Works/Transportation Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Re: Erich Schmetzko ` Dear Stan: Since our meeting last month, I have had an oppor- tunity to investigate Mr. Schmetzko's situation further and have confirmed with him his desire to immediately restore his lot to the condition it was in prior to the 1984 mudslide (including the drainage patterns and debris flow risk existing at that time) and to obtain from the Town of Vail compensation for the Town's use of his property over the past six years. Mr. Schmetzko has continued to request that we resolve this matter with the Town of Vail without a lawsuit. Outlined below is Mr. Schmetzko's requests, which I ask that you present to the person or department with authority to resolve this dispute. I have provided a copy of this letter to the City Attorney and to the Town Council along with a copy of our notice pursuant to C.R.S. $ 24-10-109. I do not think anyone disputes that the Town's use of Mr. Schmetzko's land since mid-May 1984 has been a de facto condemnation. of his property along with a daily trespass, nuisance and conversion of his property. The condition of the property has deprived Mr. Schmetzko of his use and enjoyment of the property, has caused him severe embarrassment and humiliation and has prevented him from realizing the full market potential of his property. The other property owners in the region have benefitted from the storage of the debris and rubble on Mr. Schmetzko's lot, the diversion of water and debris flow hazards onto his lot, and the construction and presence of. the debris flow channel on his lot. It is apparent that none of these actions were taken to benefit Mr. Schmetzko's lot, or to mitigate any risk caused by his lot. Rather, the whole neighborhood pitched in to make Mr. Schmetzko's lot one big public works project at his expense. - ,n} _ 1 Stan Berryman, Director Department of Public Works/Transportation Town of Vail October 11, 1990 Page 2 Mr. Schmetzko will forego his "day in court" on this. matter if the Town will agree to treat him fairly in resolving. the dispute. Mr. Schmetzko will agree to release the Town of Vail from further liability related to these actions, in exchange for the following: 1. Immediate restoration and renovation of his property. This means that the Town of Vail will, at its sole expense, remove all the earth and rubble deposited on the Schmetzko lot in May 1984, remove all traces of the ditch cutting across his property and regrade the lot so that it is ' substantially flat and suitable for further development. The workmen used by the Town to do this work will be supervised by a civil engineer selected by Mr. Schmetzko and paid for by the Town. Mr. Schmetzko will also be present during the work to approve the work. All out-of-pocket expense incurred by Mr: Schmetzko must be paid by the Town of Vail. 2. Reimburse Mr. Schmetzko for the use of his lot. As payment in full for the injury to Mr. Schmetzko's lot and the accompanying loss of use, lost business opportunity and emotional injury, Mr. Schmetzko will accept a cash payment from the Town equal to the approximate fair rental value of the property, as calculated below-- 1984 (Property used 8 months) Total = $23,336 1985 Total = $35,000 1986 Total = $30,000 1987 Total = $27,500 1988 Total = $27,500 1989 Total = $27,500 1990 (Through October 31, 1990) Total = $22,917. The total rent owed is $193,757, before interest on the unpaid amount is included. For the purpose of this informal resolu- tion of the dispute, Mr. Schmetzko will accept a total cash payment of $253,761 as payment in full. Stan Berryman, Director Department of Public Works/Transportation Town of Vail October 11, 1990 Page 3 3. Payment of all expenses. Mr. Schmetzko has been forced to incur attorneys' fees and related costs and will undoubtedly incur additional travel, mileage, hotel expenses, attorneys' fees, consulting fees and potential expert witness fees. Mr. Schmetzko will require that he made whole for all out-of-pocket expenses he has incurred and will incur in seeing this process to the end. These expenses will probably approach $10,000 to $15,000. If you believe we can resolve this problem in the manner I have outlined above, please let me know as soon as ' possible. Mr. Schmetzko has instructed us to proceed as quickly as possible to perfecting his rights against the Town of Vail. We expect that the complaint for inverse condemnation will be filed in approximately 10 to 15 days from now, and the complaint for the torts involved will be filed shortly there- after.. It is in everyone's best interest to avoid these actions and expenses. Sincerely yours, PRYOR, CARNEY AND JOHNSON,.
