Box 179 Eagle, Colorado 81631 Dear Paul, As requested, the Town of Vail has reviewed the Environmental Assessment: Avon to Vail 115 kV Transmission Line submitted by Holy Cross Electric Association, Inc. On May 18, 1992, Richard Brinkley, Bob Ballinger and Walt Dorman of Holy Cross Electric made a presentation to our Planning and Environmental Commission on the proposed line. Our commission members expressed the following concerns which we would like to refer to you. (1) It is important for Holy Cross to take whatever steps are necessary to minimize the disturbance of the natural vegetation. As many trees as possible should be saved and those areas which must be disturbed should be revegetated. (2) They expressed concern over the siting of the poles for the line which will cross Red Sandstone Road on the approach to Piney Lake. They would like to see every effort taken to utilize natural openings in the vegetation while minimizing visual impacts on the approach to Piney Lake. (3) They understand that one span and pole of the line which parallels the existing line will be visible as it enters the substation above Potato Patch from the ,valley. (4) They agree with the Holy Cross recommendation to use Core l0 steel for the poles which will rust naturally and blend with the landscape to reduce the visual impacts. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposal. If you have any further questions, please contact me at 479-2138. Sincerely, ~ S an Sc n an Environmental Health Officer xc: US Forest Service Vail Town Council Planning & Environmental Commission Ron Phillips, Town Manager ~ 1~5 5~~9•yd~ c9ff~.eu~ AVON TO VAIL - 115KV TRANSMISSION LIr?E 9.7 MILES CONSISTING MAINLY OF SINGLE POLE WITH S~;VERAL THREE POLE STRUCTURES This project may seem familia..~• to some or all of you due to the fact that we were plan:iing the same project in 1987. At that time, we received the USFS Special Use Permit and in 1988, the EA was co~~pleted. The project was put on hold in 1988 due to our power supplier having financial problems and other related matters. A. PURPOSE & NEED FOR PROJECT. The purpose of the project is to provide a loop feed for the Vail area. Presently, only one 115KV line services Vail from the Avon substation to the Vail substation. The present 115KV line has had two major outages which could have 'been considerably worse. In .1982, a six hour complete outage of the Vail substation occurred. In 1986, a sixteen hour complete outage occurred. These two outages were caused by trees falling into the transmission line causing a reclosure at the Avon substation to operate and lock out. The inaccessibility of the transmission line requires a great deal of time to walk the right-of-way. Neither trucks or an ATV will access the right-of-way. Had the trees broken a conductor or a pole, the earlier mentioned outages could have taken days to repair and the Vail area would have been without power for that period. We have accessibility - ~ i to helicopters in Colorado but none large enough to lift and carry the wood poles required to repair this line. It appears the nearest helicopter that is large enough to do the work is in Washington State. The new 115KV line can be accessed the entire length by either an ATV or snowmobile in a short period of time. The , line will be designed so that a helicopter in our area would be able to carry parts required to repair the line. With the loop feed, if we lose one line, a momentary interruption would be the only thing noticeable to Vail. In other words, a slight dip may occur. The new line would put the Vail - area in a very good position regarding transmission line failures. The Vail area, with regard to distribution ~°oltages, is in a very good position now. A distribution outage may occur but the breakers and loop feeds we have currently i~n the distribution area, make it possible to isolate the fault in a short period of time so that no one is out of power or only a feca might be out in the case of a transformer failure. B. COST & MAINTENANCE. Holy Cross Electric gives an extremely high priority to provide the best possible service to the Vail area. The new line will cost approximately 3.1 million plus another 1.5 million in substation work at Avon and Vail to accommodate the new line. The work will mean no increased revenue to Holy Cross Electric. It is strictly to provide the best service we can to the Vail Area. The existing line is flown twice~a year with a helicop- ter and walked several times a year. Any problems found during these inspections are taken care of immediately. The new line will be inspected in the same manner. In the past 18 years, the line has also had 10 momentary interruptions. The reclosure at the substation operated but the fault cleared and service was maintained. The line was walked after each of these occurrences to establish the cause of the momentary interruption. In most cases, trees had fallen into the line and then fallen free. Another danger with this occurrence is fire. Fires are caused by the burning and arching of the tree coming in contact with the 115,000 volt conductor. Luckily, conditions were such that the fire burned itself out before a raging forest fire occurred. C. LOCATION OF NEW LINE. As shown on the maps, the green line represents the location of the new line, separated from the now existing line. The location has been picked and approved by the Environmental Assessment, USFS, and Holy Cross Electric. The route was chosen because of it's easy accessibility, minimal tree removal requirements, natural screening by remote canyons, and distance from the existing line. The distance between the two lines will provide greater safety if a storm or natural disaster occurs in that if one is taken out, the other will probably remain intact. A great + ~ deal of time and effort has gone into the planning of this route which is hidden from the Vail Valley almost entirely. D. CONSTRliCTION. Our schedule is to receive approvals from towns, coun- ties, etc., by October, 1992. The bidding will be received by November, 1992. Right-of-way clearing and construction is to be done between May-October, 1993. The new line is to be energized by November, 1993. No new roads will be constructed for the project which is a USFS condition. Poles will be either steel or another approved material. They will be constructed in pieces so a smaller helicopter can be used to fly them to the sites and install them relatively easy. The conductor will be a non-reflective type. The insulators will be a rubber type so gunshots will not cause an immediate problem. In several of the large canyons, aerial marker spheres will be installed on the conductors, per the DOW require- ments. Work will be done mostly with helicopters. Manpower will enter the right-of-way by existing roads, ATV, or helicopter. Holes will be dug by small machines which will be flown in or dug by hand. The right-of-way width will be 100'. xc . .

COLORADO 81631 BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ~ ~ ° ~ FAX: (303) 3?8.1207 (.03) 323-8605 EAGLE COUNTY, COLORADO May 13, 1992 State Wildlife Commission Hand Delivered Dear Members of the Commission: The Division of Wildlife is again trying to change the fifty (50) foot set back on trapping within Vail. Our understanding was that regular status was given to the limitation at a meeting of the Commission last fall. The County Commissioners remain unanimous in the opinion that the fifty (50) foot set back is appropriate for the area. The unique circumstances of trapping in and around Vail warrant the restrictions. Any change in these rules is a step backwards. We strongly encourage the Commission to keep these restrictions in place in Vail.

TWO ELK EXPANSION AND .SNOWMAKING MEAD LIST OF $Slh MILLION IN TM~RnVEMEN't'S FOI2 VAIL'S 30TH ANNIVERSARY' VAIL, Colo.--Next season, skiers will see a triple chairlift in the Back Bowls, two surface lifts in China Bowl, a children's surface lift at Golden Peak and a 200-seat expansion at Two Elk Restaurant as Vail celebrates its thirtieth anniversary. A fleet of 26 new. snowcats and an extensive snowmaking system on Beaver Creek's Grouse Mountain round out the list of $S'h million in improvements. on Vail and Beaver Creek mountains. The Sun Up triple chairlift and three surface lifts--the West Wall lift, the Wapiti tow and the Golden Peak tow--will be added to Vail's lineup of 20 lifts, which include seven high- speed quads. Designed to utilize terrain in the Sun Up, Tea Cup and China Bowl areas, the Sun Up lift will transport skiers from Yonder in Sun Up Bowl to Jade Glade in China Bowl, accessing an additional 120 acres of skiing. From there, skiers may hop on the West Wall lift, a two-way surface lift allowing skiers to access Two Elk Restaurant or Tea C`~p .Bowl. The .second surface lift, the Wapiti tow, will bring skiers from Upper West Poppy Fields to Two Elk Restaurant. Wapiti (Wah-pa-tee) is the American Indian name for elk. A 200-seat expansion on the southeast facade at Two Elk Restaurant complements the refinements on Vail Mountain. Completed during the 1991 summer after atwo-year corstrsction process, the 500-seat restaurant was so successful during its inaugural winter that the additional 200 seats will be constructed this summer. "Seven years ago, Vail was in need of major improvements ranging from high-speed chairlifts and snowmaking to mountain restaurants and hospitality," said George Gillett, president of Vail Associates. "We've reached those goals and now our focus is on enhancing Vail and Beaver Creek with refinements that our guests have told us are essential. Over the next few years, our direction will be on a steady fine-tuning of all of our programs." Gillett also mentioned that Two Elk has heightened the need for refining food service operations. "Our guests have generated a sizable demand with Two Elk which illustrates our need~t~~~~.o,~e~,t~,ate on our other mountain restaurants in the future."

Another planned refinement is the addition of an extensive snowmaking system on Beaver Creek's Grouse Mountain. The snowmaking system will cover a large portion of Grouse's terrain and will be installed to supplement early season snowfall. The on-mountain capital projects at Vail and Beaver Creek Resort are contingent upon U.S. Forest Service approvals. "The momentum that the mountain and the community have experienced over the past several years wi11_ continue," Gillett .added. "We're not going to let up. In the next five years we're planning on devoting at least $40 million in capital to both mountains." When Gillett took over Vail Associates in 1985 the company embarked on a~mountain improvement plan that included nine high-speed quads, the addition of China Bowl and Grouse Mountain, the development of Two Elk Restaurant, and the $8'h million in refinements for this coming season.

Tony Cordova was very helpful in arranging this for us. You originally directed me to Rick Mueller, who handles the advertising for the buses. He did a wonderful job for us! It has taken extra production time on his part to enable us to use the pictures in the buses. He not only gave us a nonprofit rate for the summer but has included the Beaver Creek Buses as well. This project has been a good example of community cooperation in the Town, and we appreciate the part that the Transportation Department has played.

Over a year ago you sent us a check returning the deposit we had. made when the contract was signed. I have held that check without depositing it with the hope that, as the Colorado Ute situation was worked out, the Holy Cross Electric Association Board of Directors would once again consider selling this piece of land to the Town of Vail under the same terms and conditions we had agreed to before. Please discuss this issue with your Board and let me know if there is any interest in proceeding at this time. The Vail Town Council feels this land parcel is very important to . . the future of the T~ W government, and we would appreciate the opportunity to try to complete this transaction.

We appreciate your help in having this important work accomplished so early and ask you to pass on our thanks to the other members of your staff who had a part in this as well.

The airborne particulate data collected by the Paramount air monitors shown in the accompanying table are preliminary in nature. This means that the Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) values may be revised after auditing and validation by the air contractor and the State. The information 'is useful in assessing emissions during the winter shutdown period, as well as trends in potential human exposure. The monitoring frequency during the winter shutdown period continues on the one-in-six day program. Metals analysis is temporarily suspended until startup of construction activities in the spring. Both of these changes are allowed by the Remedial Action Plan and have been implemented in past winter shutdown periods. The concentrations for TSP were not above the air emissions permit levels during the March monitoring period. The notation ug/m3 stands for micrograms per cubic meter. A microgram equals one millionth (1/1,000,000) of a gram. Site activities in April were associated with collection and transfer of trine seepage and other contaminated water to the Consolidated Tailings Pile.

Lacy Chairman, Board of Directors Denver Regional Council of Governments Dear Chairman Lacy: On behalf of the members of the Metro Forum, I am delighted to forward our report. and recom- mendations to the Denver Regional Council of Governments Board of Directors. I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to you and to the Board of Directors for charging us with this difficult and challenging assignment. The charge to the Metro Forum was to take an independent look at the regional governance needs of the Denver metropolitan area, develop a proposal for the future governance of the region which will improve regional decision making and enhance metropolitan cooperation, and estab- lish aprocess to implement the proposal. Our report addresses these issues through a statement of "The Metro Forum's Vision of Regional Governance" and the "Recommendations". Our report presents our findings and concerns, a detailed proposal for strengthening regional institutions, and options for implementing the proposal. Our report calls for a major effort to build broad-based support for implementing the recom- mendations as the next step. Members of the Forum who felt our recommendations did not go far enough expressed concern that any new regional mechanism must consolidate planning and regional services. Further, in creating the agency, most members felt that it was critical to bring local and regional agencies together to identify the services to be provided and the appropriate method to establish the regional agency. Our report identifies those regional services that should be addressed. There was strong support among the members for using the current Regional Service Agency procedures to establish a new agency. Other members felt a legislative approach would be necessary. We all agreed that whatever steps are ultimately necessary will have to be undertaken in a broader public outreach program. We hope the_ Denver Regional Council of Governments will continue to participate and provide leadership for this effort. Again, we would like Co thank you for the opportunity to be involved in this important process.

In order to achieve the acts as a catalyst for regional problem mission envisioned by the Metro Forum, provision of selected solving, the center for information on services must be tied into the planning functions. regional issues, and the collective voice on issues affecting the future quality of life in the Denver region. The basic elements of the new agency are contained in the appendix to this report. The agency could be created by a new statute or under an amended version of the Regional Service Authority Statute. The umbrella agency will accomplish the following: ? It will fix authority for enforcing implementation of regional plans in one agency. • ? To the extent that existing regional agencies continue to provide regional services, they will do so within the boundaries of a comprehensive regional framework. ? Interjurisdictional conflict will be resolved at the re- gional level, when appropriate. • ~ ? Regionally significant developments and infrastructure • projects will be evaluated and approved within the regional planning framework. ? It will link our efforts to protect and enhance our environment with transportation and regional planning. 3 INTIZOI~UCTION In August 1990, the Board of Directors of the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) created the Metro Forum, a task force of 27 distinguished regional citizens, to develop recommendations to the CHARGE TO THE METRO FORUM Board about the future of DRCOG and its role in the Denver region. The Forum was charged with developing these recommendations in the by the context of an assessment of regional issues and trends and a deterrnina- DENVER REGIONAL COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS lion of the functions a regional agency should perform.

There is an alternative to the often haphazard and uncoordinated attention to regional issues Elsie A. Lacy, Chairman which results and to this region's history of "piecemeal" solutions, Denver Regional Council of Governments represented by the creation of single-purpose regional institutions without any mechanism for coordinating their activities. The Metro Forum's recommendations will build on the strengths and benefits of local government by creating a regional governance process that operates through greater collaboration, cooperation, interdepen- dence and accountability. To implement the recommendations of the Metro Forum, the base of support for regional governance will have to be broadened .and regional leadership will have to emerge. To accomplish this, a new initiative must be established to advocate the recommended . regional governance structure, expand public awareness, and create a broader vision. 5 ~ACK~S~~~N~ The Metro Forum was created by the DRCOG Board in the Fall of 1990 after conversations among Board members and other elected officials identified the need for stronger regional cooperation and questioned the • effectiveness of DRCOG, given its structural limitations, in meeting that need. The members of the Metro Forum were appointed by the DRCOG Chairman to represent local government, business, state government, labor and community interests. The Metro Forum met regularly from . November 1990 through December 1991. Mission Based on the charge given by the DRCOG Board,, and subsequent discussions of the Metro Forum members, the following goals for the Metro Forum were identified: ? Assess regional issues and trends. ? Analyze regional governance models implemented in other metropolitan areas. ? Examine DRCOG and develop recommendations about its future role in the region. ? Determine the functions a regional agency should perform. ? Establish a mission for a new regional agency. ? Craft a proposal for the future governance of the Denver metro area designed to improve regional decision-making and enhance regional cooperation. Accomplishments During their tenure, the Metro Forum members achieved the following results: ? Identified key issues and problems impacting the region . through an iterative process, making use of members' expertise and the available, current opinion surveys. ? Selected water supply, surface transportation, air and water quality, solid waste, health care, open space, and regional revenue sharing and tax equity for further discussion. ? Established criteria for use in the design of a regional gover- • nance approach. ? Evaluated six alternative governance models and selected the Consolidated Metro County and the Umbrella Regional Plan- ning and Service Agency approaches for more detailed review. • This included meeting jointly with the Metro Leadership Caucus to examine the nature and feasibility of the two approaches. ? Selected the Umbrella Regional Planning and Service Agency as • the regional governance structure most appropriate for the particular requirements of the six-county metropolitan region. ? Outlined the specific components of the new regional gover- . nance structure and developed a strategy for creating the Umbrella Regional Planning and Service Agency. _ 6 FINDINGS Existing Conditions Overview Statement of the Problem THE CHALLENGE OF BUILDING COMPETITIVE REGIONS The existing system of regional governance in the Denver metropolitan Source: Vision Denver Metro, National area is comprised of a variety of independent, single-purpose districts Civic League Concept Paper, and authorities providing services on a regional basis in the areas of November 1991. wastewater treatment, drainage and flood control, transportation, cultural facilities, air quality, sports, facilities and water.

This incremental approach is successful for some very practical reasons. First, it is easier to link constituency, media and public support to one problem/one solution and obtain agreement. Second, it is far easier to 7 ; compromise and achieve results. That is the nature of the political process. Finally, it is far easier to mobilize support behind an effort to resolve a single issue, as opposed to advocating a new mechanism to resolve many problems. y The fallacy of the incremental approach is that it neglects the interrelationships between issues.

Arapahoe Not surprisingly then, in spite of the political difficulties associated with Clear Creek establishing multi-purpose regional institutions, many civic leaders have Dangla5 continued to perceive multi-purpose solutions as the most effective way Jefferson to reduce the duplication, proliferation and fragmentation of local governments. Previous efforts to establish an efficient, effective and responsible regional governance structure have included a Governor's l; ; Optional Counties " task force which in 1966 recommended creation of an urban county; several legislative proposals during the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s to strengthen regional planning or reorganize local government, and two attempts (1973 and 1980) to adopt a regional service authority through voter approval. Despite their differences, the results of each effort indicated that, in the absence of amulti-purpose regional mechanism, decisions on issues with regional significance were being made by individual entities with little visibility, oversight or accountability, or were being neglected altogether. This situation is present in the Denver region today. We continue. to lack the governmental capacity to make regional decisions, collaborate on solving regional problems on a consistent basis, and implement plans for the infrastructure and services necessary to support the growth antici- pated for the region. By adopting the Metro Forum recommendation for a regional gover- nance structure, the Denver region can begin to build that institutional capacity. Bzzildi>zg on Local Coz:trol throz~gh Accountability and Collaboration I The Metro Forum recognizes that each of the communities within the region has its own unique identity and that many issues are better addressed locally or subregionally (on an interjurisdictional basis). Thus, the new regional governance structure must balance the commitment to. regional problem-solving with the fundamental principle of local control. 8 Although residents of the Denver region currently enjoy a generally high level and quality of services, access to those services and the costs of those services are not distributed equitably between communities. In addition, many communities lack the institutional and financial capacity to plan for and provide the same high level and quality of services for new growth and development. In the absence of effective regional institutions, local governments are left to "fend for themselves" as they seek ways to guarantee a high quality of life for their residents. In the absence of effective regional institutions, local governments often are left with few options other than to compete against each other for growth, infrastructure, and tax rev- . enue. Similarly, local governments often lack the capacity alone to adequately respond to mandates issued by the state and federal governments. Major decisions affecting the region are made by outside authorities who may not take into account local perspectives. In particular, federal mandates, such as the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, National Pollut- ant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) regulations, and Subtitle D for Solid Waste, among others, cannot be adequately implemented without collaboration among local governments and regional functional agencies. In many cases, the financial resources necessary to deliver a Given service or develop needed infrastructure are beyond the capability of any individual community. In such cases, a mechanism is needed to marshal such resources on a regional basis and to equitably distribute the costs and benefits of developing those resources. Preserving the Denver Region's Unique Qualities The unique resources of the Denver region, the qualities that make it one of the more desirable places in the country in which to live,. are to a significant degree associated with the natural beauty of our physical environment and viability of our communities. By their very nature, growth and development will increase the pressures on our environ- mental resources and our ability to provide local and regional services. . At the same time, state and federal agencies are strengthening environ- mental standards and regulations, while local government financial capacity is becoming more and more limited. The Denver region needs to adopt an institutional framework in which to accomplish the delicate balancing of growth and development oppor- tunities while concurrently addressing such issues as air quality, solid waste management, water quality, toxic waste reduction and wetlands preservation. Our regional governance system should be designed to integrate the regulatory elements of the environmental protection system with the policies and financing decisions required to meet our infrastructure needs and growth requirements. 4 In attempting to establish this balance, there are trade-offs in making regional decisions. The longer establishing accountability for this responsibility is delayed, the more risk is involved. The risk lies in the Denver area repeating the mistakes of other regions, where growth has made solving environmental problems seem insurmountable. Without accountability, there is a risk of creating a government process that only adds to the costs of business and services and reduces productivity. The risk of losing the amenities that make Denver unique increases because we fail to solve problems early and creatively, thereby affecting future generations. Competing in an International Economy . With the growing internationalization of economies, many metropolitan areas, including Denver, are beginning to recognize the critical impor- tance of enhancing the ability of the region to compete within that international economy. Because of its location and unique qualities, Denver has advantages over many other metropolitan areas in capturing a share of the international market. The strategy in competing with other metropolitan regions, however, must be carefully planned and pursued on a regional basis. The future competitiveness of the Denver region will be measured against the opportunities and capacities of other regions. Population Dynamics of the Denver Metropolitan Region Over the past decade, the Denver metropolitan area suffered a severe economic downturn, with that trend showing a recent reversal. Even . ~ with the economic decline, the population growth rates were in excess of the national average. The Denver-Boulder Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area (CMSA) ranked 22nd in population among all metropoli- tan statistical areas nationwide in 1990. Despite the slow population growth in the second half of the 1980s, the region slipped only one place • in national rankings, from 21st in 1980. The :table on the following page shows population trends between 1980 and 1990. Although the Denver CMSA shows a 14.2 percent increase over the decade, the core city lost 5.1 percent, reflecting the "suburbanization" experienced by other metropolitan areas. This suburbanization has serious implications on service provision and the adequacy and fairness of the tax base, traffic congestion and air quality. The Denver region's population is traditionally younger than the national average, but this trend may move closer to the national average as the baby boom genera- lion reaches its peak earning potential (age 27 to 45} and approaches retirement. This has implications on the future size and quality of the labor force, social services and property tax increases. The ethnicity of the region also reflects national trends toward greater diversity as minority populations continue to grow. Many of these minority populations traditionally have tended to be younger, have larger households, less education and lower income. This diversifica- 10 f~ COiJ1VTi' 1990;Populationr ~ 1980 Population Change 80 '.90 °Numenc Change Adams 265,038 245,944 7.8 19,094 Arapahoe 391,51 I 293,292 33.5 98,219 Boulder 225,339 189,625 18.8 35,714 Denver 467,610 492,694 -5.1 (25,084) Douglas 60,391 25,153 140.1 35,238 Jefferson 438,430 371,753 17.9 66,677 Denver CMSA I 1,848,319 1,618,461 14.2 229,858 Source: 1990 and 1980 U.S. Bureau of the Census lion and regionalization of the minority population has implications for the education system, social services and the workforce. If we are to ensure continued improvements in the opportunities afforded these communities, we must work together as a region to provide equitable access to the benefits of living in the Denver region. Regional Citizenship There are clear signs that regional decisions are becoming more important to the average citizen. The new airport, the baseball stadium and the cultural facilities district are examples of regional voter participation. The establishment of the Metro Leadership Caucus to focus on metropolitan cooperation among business, political, and community leaders is another example of the growing consciousness of metro area issues. These efforts could be more ' effective if a mechanism were in place to direct the region's future, with the powers necessary to ensure implementation of that future. A traditional obstacle to greater regional cooperation has been persistent disagreements between the core city and the suburbs. Whether the battle is over annexation, water, schools, cultural facilities or public health services, an excuse is always available to justify conflict over cooperation. Such divisions are no longer relevant to the future of the metropolitan area. As noted previously, there are too'many ways in which we are integrated as a region, too many ways in which the future of the suburbs is inextricably tied to the future of the central city and the future of the central city is tied to the future of the suburbs. ~ A new regional governance structure will provide the necessary institutional mechanisms in which all local governments in the metropolitan area can convene to reach mutually beneficial solutions to problems of mutual concern. " 11 People Our Most Important Natural Resource As critical as the environment, the economy and the condition of infra- structure are to the future livability of our region, it is our people who are our most important resource. Thus, issues such as housing, health care, education and crime, are also appropriately treated as regional issues. Whether one is concerned with the quality of our workforce, the avail- ability and affordability of health care, or the safety of our streets, the impacts and often the solutions go beyond jurisdictional boundaries. A new regional governance structure should have the capacity to devise regional approaches to these and other human resource issues to ensure that all segments of our regional community share in the benefits of regional governance.

Models from other metropolitan areas were examined and evaluated for their applica- bility to the Denver region. After this initial review, members of the Metro Forum expressed a clear preference for a stronger regional gover- nance approach. An early straw poll resulted in a focus on consolida- tion into a single metropolitan county and the umbrella agency regional oversight approaches. However, a continuing concern for regional • service delivery and improved local and regional planning coordination led to additional consideration of the multi-service district and strength- ened regional planning agency approaches. Specific regions and regional asencies studied by the Metro Forum include Indianapolis Unigov, Miami-Dade County, and Metropolitan Toronto as examples of regional consolidation similar to the metro county approach; the Metro Council of the Twin Cities as the original example of the "umbrella" approach; the Portland Metro Service District as the only directly elected regional multi-service district; and the . Atlanta Regional Commission as an example of a strengthened regional planning agency. Included in this review was a trip with the Metro Leadership Caucus to Minneapolis/St. Paul to review their experiences with the formation of an umbrella agency. 13 . t•I .

Although all members agreed on the importance of both regional services and stronger planning, a majority preferred Option 2 as an initial step. ' However, there was sufficient interest in Option 3 for the members to . recommend this issue be further discussed by the successor organization to the Metro Forum. 14 CONCLUSIONS The Metro Forum has concluded that many of the issues which led to attempts to establish a stronger regional governance structure in the past continue to be of concern in the region today. The Metro Forum believes that the new regional governance structure it is proposing will effectively enable local governments to come together in the cooperative development of more efficient and effective service delivery and to plan for the growth and development of the region. The following are the Forum's primary conclusions: ? The Denver metropolitan area does not have in place a governance structure which can effectively solve critical regional issues I including water, transportation, air and water quality, solid waste, health care and open space. ~ ~ ? Recent successful initiatives (airport, convention center, cultural f district, baseball stadium district, jail facility site, economic develop- s ment network) and the collaborative attempts to solve metro area i transportation problems have strengthened regional cooperation relationships. Regional leadership is emerging in the metropolitan area in government, private sector, and community organizations, but it has been incremental and single-purpose. ? The region is searching for an appropriate approach to governmen- tal reorganization, but the Metro Forum considers the consolidation approach, including the metro county, to be too politically contro- versial. ? Creation of the Umbrella Regional Planning and Service Agency recommended by the Metro Forum will provide the necessary institutional mechanism to expand local government capacity, to address development and service delivery issues, and to integrate local governments and the various regional agencies into a more effective governance and service delivery system. ? Once the umbrella agency is created, an effort to craft a regional vision will be required to help the new regional governing system , guide future development and reach its full potential in solving regional issues. ? The new regional agency will enhance public accountability through citizen control of and participation in regional issues and decisions, by directly electing and/or appointing representatives. ? The new umbrella agency will provide an appropriate mechanism with adequate authority for financing regional infrastructure and services. ? The new umbrella agency will not duplicate existing agencies, but will provide for eliminating duplication and fragmentation in regional policy-setting and service provision while, at the same 15 s~-,.~--,., ~ ---r----- , time, will enhance the ability of existing agencies to come together to solve mutual problems. To summarize, a stronger regional governance approach will: ? Provide for a way to implement a shared vision for the future of the region. ? Match regional solutions to regional problems. ? Reduce counterproductive internal competitiveness between local governments. ? Provide for efficient management of our physical, human and financial resources as a requirement of regional decision-making. ? Accomplish the delicate balancing of growth and development opportunities with the preservation and enhancement of our environment and quality of life. ? Promote broad-based economic development within the region, as well as strengthen the competitiveness of the region in the interna- tional economy. 16 ~PP~NI)IX EXPLANATION OF THE counties, including Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, UMBRELLA REGIONAL PLANNING Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties.

During the fall of 1991, the Colorado Ski Museum relocated to the Vail Village Transportation Center and the structure on the ski museum site has subsequently been demolished. The property is currently vacant and the Town's intentions are to construct a small pocket park in this location. The Ski Museum Pocket Park site is currently zoned Public Accommodation (PA). As stated in the Zoning Code, the Public Accommodation Zone District "is intended to provide sites for lodges and residential accommodations for visitors, together with such public and semipublic facilities and limited professional offices, medical facilities, private recreation,. and related visitor-oriented uses as may appropriately be located in the same district:" As .such, the PA District only allows for lodges, and accessory dining decks as permitted uses in the District. Conditional uses in the PA District range from professional and business offices, hospitals and dental clinics, to theaters, meeting rooms and convention facilities, and churches. Public parks and recreation facilities are also listed as conditional uses in the PA Zone District. The Town of Vail is requesting that the zoning on the ski museum site be changed from Public Accommodation to Public Use District (PUD). As stated iri the zoning code, the 1 a Public Use Zone District "is intended to ensure that public buildings and grounds and certain types of quasi-public uses permitted in the district are appropriately located and designed to meet the needs of residents and visitors to. Vail, to harmonize with surrounding uses, and in the case of buildings and other structures, to ensure adequate light, air, open space, and other amenities appropriate to the permitted types of uses." Public parks, playgrounds and open space, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and seasonal structures or uses to. accommodate educational, recreational, or cultural activities, are all permitted uses within the Public Use District. II. CRITERIA AND FINDINGS A. Suitability of the Proposed Zoning. Although it is possible to request a conditional use permit to construct a pocket park on the ski museum site, given the Public Accommodation Zone District, it is the staff's opinion that the Public Use District is a much more appropriate zone district for the uses anticipated for this site. We believe that the proposed pocket park more closely meets the purpose section of the Public Use District, than the Public Accommodation Zone District. B. Is the amendment proposal presenting a convenient, workable relationship among land uses consistent with municipal objectives? The ski museum site has been specifically designated as a pocket park site in the recently approved Streetscape Master Plan. Preliminary design work for the pocket park is currently underway, and it is .anticipated that should this zoning change be approved, the pocket park would be constructed during the summer of 1992. The Town of Vail Land Use Plan has designated the ski museum site as a "transition zone". The Land Use Plan further defines a transition zone as an area in which "activities and site design are aimed at encouraging pedestrian flow through the area and strengthening the connection between the two commercial cores. Appropriate activities include hotels, lodging and other tourist oriented residential units, ancillary retail and restaurant uses, museums, areas of public art, natural exhibits, gardens, pedestrian plazas, and other types of civic and culturally oriented uses. The staff believes that the rezoning of this site from PA to Public Use District would be consistent with the zoning previously placed on Gerald R. Ford Park. Town parks are also zoned Agricultural/Open Space, and Greeenbelt Natural C}pen .Space. C. Does the rezoning proposal provide for the growth of an orderly and viable community? The staff feels that this proposed rezoning, and use of this site as a pocket park, would 2 provide for the growth of an orderly and viable community, and would also strengthen the pedestrian connection between the Village core and the Lionshead core. The Streetscape Master Plan addresses this site as follows: "A pocket pazk is proposed on the ski museum site, creating a sense of pedestrian entry for the corridor~and a better visual connection to East Meadow Drive. The park would include needed public restrooms, seating, and extensive landscaping." At this time, public restrooms are not included in the pazk design. If a restroom is . proposed in the future, it would require a conditional use review. The PUD allows for site specific review of development standards through the conditional use process. III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The staff recommendation for the proposed rezoning of this property from Public Accommodation to Public Use District is for approval. We believe that the Public Use District designation is the more appropriate zone district for the uses which aze anticipated for this property. We also believe that the addition of a pocket pazk on this site would be in conformance with the Town's Streetscape Master Plan, and that the pocket park would be a positive contribution to the community as a whole. 3 EXHIBIT A.
