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? OFFICES IN VAIL AND BEAVER CREEK FE 8 15 1991 Page 2 Town Council 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 RES/j t cc: Vail Trail Vail Daily ~C'D FEB 2 2 1991 1~!~~0 ~?~.1~. 5A5 East'laiC~.'a(Ie~~7~ri`•e-- ~~aif.

Frontage Road, West Vail, CO 81657 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, MANOR VAIL CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION Jac.

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, Hannes P. Spaeh, P.E. HPS~ kf P.O.

(303) 479-2200 department of police - February 19, 1991 Sandy Righter 2358 South Fillmore Denver, Colorado 80210 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. Sincerely,- - - TOWN OF VAZL - C1111C 1.11 n. rI u~~ ~~j Chief of Police ' 2358 S .

X765392 Feb. 11, 1891 Vail Police Department Vail, Co . + 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', ~f ~ i Sandy ~l~ghter cc: Vail,City Council Eagle Valley Humane Society RECD FE8 2 0 1991 Feb. 16,1991 Ron Phillips Town manager Town of Vail 75 S. Frontage Rd. Vail, Colo. 81657 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 Eagle Valley Environmental Alliance Box 4455 Vail, Colo. 81658 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. F'' .
