TOWN OF VAIL MEMORANDUM
To: Ron Phillips
Council Members
FROM: Steve Thompson
DATE: February 22, 1991
RE: Investment Report
Enclosed is the investment report with balances as of January 31,
1991.
In January we purchased ten savings and loan CD's totaling $990, 000
with an average yield and maturity date of 7.36% and December 2,
1991 respectively. When the CD's were purchased the average yield
on comparable treasuries was 6.50%.
Interest income for 1991 may be less than what we budgeted if
interest rates continue at the same rate or go lower for the
balance of the year.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Dear Council and PEC:
I attended your work session on the future of wood burning fire-
places on February 12, 1991. Unfortunately, I had to leave before
you finished and before I was able to make comments.
I feel that there are several issues that should be addressed
before you proceed with the banning of fireplaces.
Vail is the Number One ski resort in the U.S. It has that dis-
tinction for a variety of reasons, among which are the quality of
the ski experience and the village experience of wonderful shops,
restaurants and ambiance. Ambiance is a key to how a visitor or
new resident perceives Vail. Very often, it might be the picture
of a cozy wood fire after a wonderful day of skiing. We must
balance issues to retain the ambiance and beauty of Vail while pre-
serving the environment.
I am not convinced the studies show that Vail has a real pollution
problem. The number of (or lack of) stations checking air quality
is only one. The Town of Vail is ten miles long and conditions
must vary greatly from East Vail to West Vail and Intermountain.
Studies have been going on by the Town of Vail for several years.
Has the air quality deteriorated to the point that fireplaces need
to be banned? Before proceeding, you should have valid, explain-
able results. They say, "you don't build a church for Easter", and
I would say, "you don't ban fireplaces for 21 days of less than
perfect air quality".
I also feel that we've lost site of the cost issue. Pitkin Creek
was a complex built to help solve the housing problem. As I
recall, the buildings are heated with electricity and there is no
gas service to the project. The cost to these owners and tenants
would be substantial to bring in gas service and convert all of the
fireplaces. Again, we would be worsening the cost of housing, not
helping. Is the fireplace issue worth making affordable housing
not affordable?

It would be very expensive to convert the approved wood burning
fireplace in our personal residence. We are on the fourth floor
of a masonry building, with concrete prestressed T floors. The
gas meter and gas line are at the other end of the building. Inci-
dentally, we have a gas fireplace as well and use it often. We
have used our wood fireplace very little, but this does not mean
we would willingly give it up.
I feel that a well thought ost incentive program will encourage
people to convert to gas fireplaces. The cost savings of firewood
versus gas is enough incentive for most condominium hotels to con-
vert. It should not be necessary to pay someone to convert.
If you are going to pay people to convert to natural gas, you must
know the cost to the Town of Vail. Your financial resources are
limited and you must prioritize and justify such an expenditure.
You must also pay for it, not by raising taxes, but by cutting
expenses elsewhere in your budget. The idea o.f raising taxes would
not, I don't believe, be acceptable. I also would oppose the use
of the real estate transfer tax which was adopted and amended for
very specific expenditures.
I agree 100% with Diana Donovan's comments at your joint meeting
' regarding this issue. I feel very strongly that you should slow
down and reconsider elimination of fireplaces. It is a very
serious issue.
Yours y y truly,
,.rein E. Slifer

Dear Kristan:
This letter is in response to your letter regarding the status of the revocable easement agr°ement
for the proposed stone pillar and wood rail fence along Vail Valley Drive.
As you know, the completion of the proposed fence was not possible due to weather conditions.
The excavated holes were filled and the pre-existing cedar rail fence was replaced. In late
November, prior to the completion of this project, the tie-timber wall and footings were inspected
as part of our annual engineering audit (see attached letter).
The results of the annual engineering audit confirmed our earlier discussion that the tie-timber
wall has a problem of structural stability. Our Engineer has recommended that no additional
stress be placed on the wall. The Engineer notes that the concrete footings installed last May are
serving to retard the deterioration of the wall.
Regrettably, we must withdraw our fence improvement proposal. As a consequence, we also
withdraw our request for an easement agreement.
If I can be of further assistance in this matter, please let me kno~~v.
Sincerely,

Dear ~:r. Cabin:
Conroe Engineering Consultants, Inc. had conducted a structllral
observation of all ~'.ar.or Vail buildings ar.d the surrounding site
on ~o~-ember 17, 1990. In the course of our observation, we
observed the snood re*_~ining wall along Vail Valley Drive in front
of Building A.
The horizontal wall ties have deteriorated over the years and the
top of the wall has moved laterally. Replacement or repair will
be required in the near future. The new concrete piers, in-
stalled '?a~• of 1990, have slowed the movement of the wall ties
for the present time.
It is our opinion that the retaining wall in question cannot
carry any additional loads suc'c2 as a concrete side waih or store
fence pillars.
Very Truly Yours,

Dear Ms. Righter:
I am in receipt of your recent letters relating to the operation of
horse drawn carriages in Vail. I appreciate your concerns and
would like to update you as to what we are doing to address your
concerns - as well as our concerns.
Town staff members have met with principals of the two companies
operating carriage companies in Vail and have reached mutual
agreement on a number of issues as follows:
(1) the rate of travel shall at no time exceed a trot while
roadways are snow or ice covered;
(2) at no time shall the gait exceed a fast walk while turning,
approaching groups of pedestrians, going downhill, or when
conditions are such to warrant this approach,
(3) all carriages shall display "slow moving" placards on the rear
of the carriage,
(4) required lighting will be mounted and in operation on all
carriages,
(5) all traffic laws and posted restrictions must be obeyed,
(6) no travel is allowed on any bike path or other restricted
area,
(7) all bus stops are to be respected and no interference with bus
operations will occur.
ti~
In addition, both contracts are up for renewal on May 1, 1991, and
failure to comply with all regulations could lead to contract(s)
not being renewed.
Your continued comments are appreciated and will be followed up
with Animal Control Officer Bob Slagle.

Dear People:
Two weeks ago I wrote to you informing you
that a carriage using the North Fror~~age Road
daily without a slow-moving vehicle sign was
an accident waiting to happen. T he accident
did, indeed, happen, although in this instance
it appears that the orange sign woulcn't have
prevented it. Nevertheless, it is the law
that this carriage on a public road :must be
appropriately signed. In addition, carriage
lights operated on the return trip at night
may have prevented this incident. T'r~e owner's
negligence is putting these horses in great
danger daily, as well as causing a hazard for
drivers. I hope you will see that the owner
complies with the law as soon as possible,
and in addition, suggest he take extra steps
to make the carriage more visible.
S ' erely',

Dear Ron,
The Eagle Valley Environmental Alliance has agreed to sponsor a meeting to be held at 7
p.m. on Monday, Feb. 25, in the Minturn Town Hall. The people who have filed the class-
action lawsuit have asked us to listen to what their attorney, Chip Delap, and the consulting
hydrology firm, Aquasan, have to say about the progress toward cleanup of the Eagle River
and the mining tailings.
We have not invited Dames & Moore and the other parties to the meeting, although they
will not be excluded. We felt only that with just two hours or so, we could listen to only so
much. As such, we view the meeting as just an informational forum.
If you think this is something that the town council or town staffers would be interested in
attending, feel free to pass along the information.
Best regards,
~I
Allen Best
Chairman

P.S. There tends to be some confusion about where the Minturn Town Hall is located. It is
not in the same building as the gymnasium and the driver's license bureau. It is located
about ahalf-block to the north of where town offices are located, in the community
building.
