COLORADO has recently concluded another extremely successful season, bringing many highly talented musicians and large audiences to the Vail Valley and once again placing Vail in the top echelon of another category - home of a world class music festival. The phenomenal success of the festival is attributable to many factors, including the dedication and perseverance of many talented and committed individuals in our community and the existence of three wonderful venues for the performances - the. Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater, the Vail Interfaith Chapel and the Chapel at Beaver Creek. while the Amphitheater provides an opportunity for wonderful music to be performed and heard in an extraordinary setting, allowing the community, our guests and the musicians to savor a truly unique musical experience, this potential is not being realized. Instead, because of the Amphitheater°s close proximity to the baseball fields and the attendant noise generated by the enthusiastic players and spectators, each concert has been seriously disrupted, not only this season but in seasons past. The noise level not only distracts the audience, but many of the performers have confided in me that this is an extremely serious issue, which distracts from their concentratian and their performance level. Obviously this is not the environment our community wants to provide if we are to pursue the highest standards of excellence for which Vail has become famous. Over the last several seasons I have attended numerous concerts and sat in various sections of the Amphitheater, from the left and right sides to the front and back, including the lawn seating area. The results were always the same, whether at a crucial moment in the performance when the soloist was "between notes00 or when the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra was playing the crescendo of Tchaikoskvy°s 1812 Overture, cannons and all, the cheers and jeers of the players and spectators at the contiguous baseball field could be heard. Some may suggest that I am over-reacting to a little noise, but I would remind those persons that a little noise is not tolerated at a golf match when a player is lining up his/her putt and that every year when the Vail Valley hosts the Jerry Ford Invitational, strict adherence to this etiquette is demanded from one and all. If our community is going to host an event like BRAVO! COLORADO, then I think it is incumbent upon us to do so in a first rate manner, consistent with the vision we have of our community as a world class resort. This is especially true when the solution is extremely easy to implement and will not cost anything. This last season there were twelve concerts at the Amphitheater, ten of them started at 6e00 pm, one was a youth concert at 11e00 am, and one on July 4th at 3000 pm. Since most of the noise appears to emanate from the field closest to the Amphitheater, it would appear that all that is necessary is for there to be a conscious effort on the part of the Vail Recreation District to only schedule the use of the field in question at times when the Amphitheater is not booked for a concert. Since the concert schedule is established months in advance of the festival, it would appear that all that is required is for the VRD to find, over the lenght of the summer season, a dozen or so alternate dates for the use of a field or maybe four early games on all three fields . Since I am aware that the Town owns the baseball fields and make them available to the VRD, I believe that it would be completely appropriate to address this issue in the up coming negotiations with the VRD over its future use of the baseball facilities and I therefore request that you and the rest of the Town council focus your attention on this very important issue in conjunction with granting the VRD continued use of the baseball fields, which should be expressly conditioned upon the requirement that there is no conflict with BRAVO? COLORADO°s use of the Amphitheater. err truly yours, l~ ~ ~oward L.

State Response: Division of Housing will explore feasibility of expanding, on a voluntary basis, regional revolving loan funds to include housing development funds. The division will seek involvement and commitment, of federal partners and private lenders in building financing pools at local/regional level. The division will provide information to Colorado-based retirement funds on the opportunities for investment in mortgage-based backed securities as a result of .the 1993 Federal Budget Reconciliation Act. Timeframe: 1994-1998 Required Resources: Existing staff, Colorado Home Investment Loan Fund, CHFA Housing Opportunity Fund, Housing Assistance Council, Rural Community - Assistance Corporation. 7. Limit housing impact fees. State Response: There are no state imposed housing impact fees. These are set by municipal and° county governments. However, the Division of Housing will seek legislation to grant authority to water and sewer districts to set differential plant investment fees for developers of affordable housing for low income individuals. Timeframe: 1994-95 Required Resources: Existing staff -2- 1 ) e B. L®CAL G®i/ERNIl~ERIT ISSUES: 'I. The state should provide public information and hold meetings with local government officials on the long-term implications of .Amendment I. State Response: The Department of Local Affairs' Division of Local Government will cooperate with municipal, county and district associations to provide such training. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff 2. Bleed state leadership in developing "Enterprise Funds" so that user fees, where appropriate, can be charged directly to-the consumer and not be subject to Amendment I limitations. State Response: The Division of Local Government will assist local units of government in establishing such funds upon request. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff 3. The state should continue to provide financial assistance to local governments to finance public infrastructure for community and economic development needs. State Response: The Department of Local Affairs, Department of Health and Office of Business Developmentwill continueto providefinancial assistance through EPA, CDBG, Energy and Mineral Impact and Economic Development Commission grants and loans for these types of projects. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: EPA, CDBG, Impact Assistance and EDC funds _ Improve drainage/flood protection. State Response: The Colorado Water Conservation Board and the Department of Local Affairs will identify and fund such projects on a limited basis using state grant funds and local funding. Such projects must be a local priority with a substantial local financial commitment. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: CDBG funds, Impact Assistance funds, local improvement districts. -3- 5.

State Response: The Department of Local Affairs has committed to financially assist local governments in planning for solid waste disposal on amulti-jurisdictional basis. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Impact Assistance and CDBG funds; local funds. 6. Increase support for recycling. State Response: to 1993, the General Assembly passed H.B: 1318, which created the Recycled Products and Materials Procurement Program operated by the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority and the Colorado Office of Business Development to encourage public and/or private recycling efforts. Timeframe: Begin implementation in spring 1994. Required Resources: As available per the provisions of H.B. 1318. 7. Assist communities with the development of affordable day care. State Response: This is principally a private sector issue. Very limited state assistance may be available through the CDBG program for targeted low and moderate income communities where local governments prioritize and assist with the funding of such projects. Tax credits are available through the state's Enterprise Zone program for eligible child care projects. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Local public and private funds, CDBG funds, Enterprise Zone tax credits, Health and Human Services grants. 8. Simplify Colorado Department of Health grant and loan application forms and processes. State Response: The Health Department will review, .improve and simplify procedures and forms as needed. Timeframe: By June 30, 1994. Required Resources: Existing staff -4- a C. REGULAT®RY ISSUES: Costly federal and state mandates (e.g., A®A, family leave, health standards, environmental regulations, water, wastewater system and solid waste regulations) cannot be addressed without additional funds. State Response: The Colorado Aeronautical Board, through the Colorado Discretionary Aviation Grant (CDAG) program, has made compliance/mitigation measures associated with state and federally mandated programs a priority in its grant program. Projects which have received CDAG funds include airport terminal modifications and aircraft passenger lifts (ADA), removal and replacement of underground airport fuel storage facilities (UST-LUST) and development of a statewide airport stormwater discharge permitting program as required by the Clean Water Act and the Colorado Department of Health. Regarding other environmental regulations, the state has allocated funds to assist local government compliance and continues to seek funds. Pollution prevention programs assist small businesses in reducing wastes and costs. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: CDAG grants are limited to $50,000 per applicant and are based on an evaluation of current grant cycle application needs. 2. There should be mechanisms to waive unnecessary regulations in the health care system that increase costs and/or restrict provision of services to small communities. State Response: In order to eliminate unnecessary regulations, the review of environmental regulations for duplication and internal contradiction is an ongoing process under the aegis of the Board of Health. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing - TRANSP®RTATV®RI 6SSUES: ~ . ®evelop additional financing for construction and maintenance of surface transportation systems. State Response: Additional financingforconstruction and maintenancewill require voter approval. It is not likely that the General Assembly will refer such a measure to the voters in 1994, and the approval by the voters on short notice and without extensive justification of transportation needs would be difficult. The state, local governments and interest groups should begin immediately to develop coalitions and an understanding of the issues, develop strategies on timing and content of -5- 1 such a measure, and build the foundation fora 1995 effort. The state, through the Colorado Department of Transportation, can take the lead in developing the transportation investment plan, the financial alternatives and partnership process necessary for success. Timeframe: Immediate -November 1995 Required Resources: Undetermined 2. Continue to support regionally based transportation planning systems. State Response: Locally based, regional planning is critical to building consensus and support for transportation improvements and funding. Regional planning efforts will be the cornerstone for the statewide transportation plan and the funding framework for additional financing. CDOT will support and encourage the continuation of these ongoing efforts. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Continued commitment by CDOT staff to work with and assist planning agencies/groups. Additionally, planning funds will be required by the Transportation Planning Regions (state and local funds) to support the planning process. 3. Review state policy on high cost acceleration/deceleration lane requirements which substantially impact local business development, particularly in lower traffic rural areas. State Response: Per Colorado Revised Statutes (C.R.S. 43-2-147), local governments have responsibility for determining access to local developments. Access must be included by the developer in the zoning/plat-request: As part of this responsibility, the local government must establish a reasonable schedule of fees for access permits. This puts the cost for acceleration/deceleration lanes on the developer. Acceleration/deceleration lane standards have been developed based on national level engineering standards, and have been shown to reduce the number of accidents and the level of congestion. By lowering the standards, studies indicate that safety will decrease, the number of accidents will increase and congestion will also increase. Timeframe: N/A Required Resources: N/A -6- 4. The state must intervene in high commuter air fares betva~een ®enver and Western Slope communities. State Response: Under airline deregulation, the state has a very limited role in setting fares, routes and/or frequencies of airline trips. The state can only encourage the City and County of Denver to establish landing and use fee structures at Stapleton and Denver International airports that will not impose undue financial hardship on the state's commuter airlines. Additionally, the Office of Business Development is willing to work with interested local communities/economic development organizations to attract a commercial passenger aviation service for low cost, in-state travel. Timeframe: Ongoing - Required Resources: Existing staff 5. Enhance regional commuter airport systems. State Response: Several efforts are underway to address this issue. OBD is conducting a pilot study to determine economic development strategies for rural commercial airports in Colorado. This study will be completed first quarter 1994. Findings will contribute to local and state future actions. The CDOT Aeronautics Division is completing an update of the state Aviation System Plan for the Western Slope, San Luis Valley and Eastern Plains. The final report will address the demand and capacity of the existing system, recommend facility improvements where needed, establish development priorities and determine financing alternatives. Additionally, CDOT and the Department of Local Affairs have supported and expect to continue to support existing regional commercial airport systems in partnership with local governments and the FAA. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Impact Assistance funds, Colorado Aeronautics Board grant, FAA funds, local government funds. - ~ 9mprove access from ®enver 9nternational Airport not only., to metro communities, &~ut to the northeast, east central and central mountain communities. State Response: CDOT is co-chairing a task force with the Denver Regional Council of Governments to address the immediate needs, as well as mid-range (3-5 years) and long-range (5-10 years) access issues. The DIA Access Task Force has identified and implemented the immediate needs for-access and has now formed four subgroups to focus on modal, finance, traffic impacts and economic development/tourism issues. The task force is addressing access from each of the following areas: northeast, east central and central mountain communities. The task force includes a technical committee, with technical staff from local -7- t ~ governments, and a policy committee with over 600 local and state elected and appointed officials. Timeframe: Subgroups will report back to full policy committee within 6 months. Required Resources: CDOT has allocated resources for staff time from existing budgets. 7. Ensure that agriculture producers have reasonable rail and highway systems in order to access markets. Resist abandonment of rail lines. State Response: CDOT has worked cooperatively with the Public Utilities Commission, Department of Agriculture and the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation in opposing several recent rail abandonment actions around the state. The Colorado Rail Advisory Committee has passed a resolution encouraging CDOT and the Transportation Commission to act to preserve available rail rights-of-way throughout the state for the transportation and economic benefit of the citizens of Colorado. The adequacy of highway access for farm-to-market activity is being addressed by the Transforation Planning Regions as part of the statewide planning process. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Undetermined at this time E. TELECOMMUNICATIONS ISSUES: 1. Establish a statewide telecommunications policy and development plan that reflects private aspects of telecommunications and public policies. State Response: The Telecommunications Advisory Commission (TAC), originally created to coordinate distance learning activity between K-12 and Higher Education, was directed by H.B. 93-1035 to develop communications policy recommendations for the General Assembly by December 1994. The plan will cover both public and private goals, as the legislative declaration added economic development, health and local governments as vital areas for telecommunications development. A major policy decision should address citizen access to public information through private networks. Additionally, the Governor has asked several Cabinet members and staff to meet regularly to discuss and outline the issues surrounding telecommunications policy in the state, particularly as it relates to economic development. Timeframe: Customers/Users of telecommunications will.developvision statements in the fall of 1993. The "vision" will be presented by the TAC at a symposium in December 1993. Results of the symposium will be incorporated into Phase II of the TAC plan to develop the policy recommendations. Required Resources: To be determined -8- 2. Guarantee basic (private line) telephone service to all areas of the state. State Response: A policy may emerge from the activities described in #1 above.

Continue to support and increase funding for Revolving Loan Funds. (Develop non-federal sources of capital for RLFs.) Try to cut down on government requirements which restrict program effectiveness. State Response: DOLA and OBD are committed to strengthening existing revolving loan funds on a multi-year basis where performance warrants. Where local sponsors support them, efforts will be made to broaden existing funds into community development funds addressing housing and infrastructure as well as business finance. Additionally, OBD will hold a "test" meeting during the fourth quarter of 1993 to explore new funding sources for RLFs. Timeframe: 1993-1998 Required Resources: Community Development Block Grants 2.

The Minority/Women Credit Reserve program has been established with funding through the Department of Local Affairs and from the Economic Development Commission. The program, administered by CHFA, will encourage commercial lenders to increase the number of loans to minority and women-owned businesses. Additionally, the Minority Business Office ~is working toward improved procurement opportunities for these businesses. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Funds through DOLA and EDC; staff support from CHFA, DOLA, OBD and other state agencies. -11- ~ ~ 8. Measures should be taken that change existing banking regulations to allow the banking industry to become more involved in lending to small businesses. State Response: Response pending Timeframe: Required Resources: B. CAPITAL ACCESS ISSl1ES: 1. Lack of capital availability is directly hindering expansion of existing businesses: State Response: OBD will continue to support the capitalization of small cities CDBG revolving loan funds. The state wi II encourage entitlement-cities to consider investing CDBG funds under their control in similar projects. Additionally, the Economic Development Commission will continue to consider requests for capitalizing special use financing projects, such as the Colorado International Capital program and the Colorado Credit Reserve program, on a case by case basis. The state will also continue to support funding for the federal Small Business Administration. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Private, state (CDBG, EDC) and local. 2. More venture capital is needed. State Response: Traditionally, the state has not funded venture capital projects due to the high potential for loss of funds. OBD and the RLF network will attempt to link businesses with private venture capital funds. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Private 3. State should assist in the creation of additional lending sources for businesses that will allow increased sharing of the risk (e.g., venture capital, certified development corporations, micro lending programs). State Response: In addition to the information provided in #s 1 and 2 above, the state is supporting, through the efforts of OBD and funding from the EDC, a demonstration "microloan" project in Region 10. This SBA-funded program is designed to provide lending services to small businesses that do not fit existing CDBG requirements. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: SBA, EDC and CDBG funds -12- "Local" banks no longer exist and loan process is too lengthy and should be expedited.

Timeframe: 1994-95 Required Resources: Existing staff 5. Continue availability of low interest loans for businesses through additional Community ®evelopment Block Grants. Change or waive federal regulations that after X993, C®BG grants can no longer revolve. State Response: OBD and DOLA will continue to support the capitalization of existing CDBG revolving loan funds for low interest loans to businesses. The state will attempt to locate additional public and private sources of funding to augment CDBG funds and will also work with RLF administrators and/or the state congressional delegation to seek waivers or changes to CDBG regulations that hinder the effective operation of the program. Timeframe: 1993-96 Required Resources: CDBG funds C. T®tJRVSf~ ~SStJES: U. Support the Colorado Tourism Board and continuation of the tourism tax.

State Response: (Response pending) Timeframe: Required Resources: D. INTERNATIONAL TRADE ISSUES: 1. Provide additional funding for the International Trade Office. State Response: The office has requested additional funding. However, given the realities of Amendment I, additional funding is not expected. ITO is therefore making the necessary internal adjustments to ensure that .the agency's mission continues. Timeframe: N/A Required Resources: Existing -16- 2. Bnclude outreach and funding for international Trade satellite offices. State Response: The International Trade Office now has four overseas representatives located in Belgium, Korea, Japan and Taiwan. If a decision is made that additional representatives are needed, existing funds will be reallocated to accommodate such additions. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing 3. Support NAFTA. State Response: ITO has been the lead agency in Colorado regarding support for NAFTA. This includes numerous articles, editorials, speeches, public appearances, mailings to and meetings with Colorado congressional delegates, and participation in the USA and Colorado NAFTA organizations. Timeframe: Until NAFTA is approved Required Resources: Existing Establish a Colorado office in R~exico City. State Response: The priority for the state's Mexico program was additional staff in Denver. This is being achieved by reallocating funds from the Japan office. Representation in Mexico is being accomplished by using several consultants on a case-by-case basis. Their principal function is to help ITO schedule appointments and organize meetings in Mexico, a process that is very time-consuming if conducted from Denver. Timeframe: N/A Required Resources: Existing 5. increase number of products exported and bold export seminars. State Response: ITO's principal goal is to increase the number of products exported, and this is an ongoing activity. In order to achieve this, the function of conducting export seminars has been turned over to the World Trade Center. The center does an excellent job and also frees up ITO's time for the actual work of export promotion. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: N/A -17- 6. Increase multi-language signage. State Response: The priority for adding multi-language signage is the new Denver International Airport, and this issue has been discussed with airport officials on numerous occasions. Regional airports and other facilities with high volumes of non-English speaking clients should work to improve their signage without waiting for state action. Timeframe: N/A Required Resources: N/A E. FILM INDUSTRY ISSUES: - 1. Continue support for state Motion Picture and Television Commission.

State Response: During the 1993 legislative session, the Governor requested $9 million for the EDC for FY 1994. The commission received an appropriation of $1.7 million. It has not yet been determined what the form and content of such a request will be for FY 1995 and beyond: Timeframe: FY 1995 Required Resources: To be determined 3. Give communities greater flexibility in structuring incentive packages. State Response: State incentive funds through the EDC and other mechanisms, such as job training funds, may have statutory or regulatory provisions which must be met. Within these parameters, funds are provided with as much flexibility as possible to meet the needs of the communities. Where local funds are involved, communities may develop their own tailor-made incentives working directly with businesses. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: N/A '8. Incentives should be determined by size of business, whether it is existing or new and whether it is urban or rural. State Response: OBD and the EDC consider a variety of factors when determining incentives for specific projects. Among the major considerations are business location (urban or rural), size (how many jobs will be retained and/or created) and whether it is an existing or new business. Another major factor considered is the amount of non-state funding (private, local, federal) included in the incentive package. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: N/A 5. The state and local areas should target industries and businesses and determine incentives based upon these "targets" and whether or not incentives are warranted for a spec'rfic industry and/or company. State Response: OFD will continue to recruit targeted industries. These include telecommunications, biotechnology, computer peripheral assembly, agricultural processing, light manufacturing, and transportation and distribution. Incentive -19- l t determinations are made giving consideration to a variety of issues, which include targeted industries, business size, location, whether an existing or new business and other funding support. Timeframe: Ongoing - Required Resources: N/A 6. Incentives are needed to support a statewide buyer-supplier network. State Response: The state Department of Purchasing is currently implementing a new buyer-supplier network system. Additional private sector pilot projects are being initiated by the Greater Denver Chamber of Commerce and Colorado Springs Chamber of Commerce. Timeframe: 1994 Required Resources: Existing state and private 7. Continue Enterprise Zones and local EZ marketing grants. Increase EZ incentives without diluting effectiveness of existing zones (e.g., "double" incentives). State Response: The state supports continuation of Enterprise Zone tax incentives and marketing grants to encourage business expansion and economic development in economically distressed areas. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing G. REGULATORY REFORM ISSUES 1. Current state regulations, licensing and permitting requirements should be reviewed and steps taken to simplify and streamline them to the greatest extent possible. State Response: The Office of Regulatory Reform is.charged with reviewing all proposed state regulations for their impact on small businesses and making recommendations for regulatory flexibility. ORR currently works to amend existing regulations when business owners have identified existing problems. It would benefit business to review all existing regulation. Timeframe: Depending upon resource allocation, 3-S years will be required to audit all state agencies. Required Resources: Existing staff -20- 2. Workers' Compensation costs remain too high and hinder business development. Additional changes are necessary. State Response: While workers' compensation costs remain high, information from the National Counsel on Compensation Insurance (NCCI) indicates that the rate of premium increases has dropped significantly since the passage of S.B. 91-218 - to zero in many instances. At the time the bill was passed, it was estimated that the full benefits would not be realized for three years. Colorado had the highest rate of premium increase during the 1980s. Since S.B. 218, Colorado has had the lowest increase in workers' compensation premiums of all the surrounding states. Any changes to control the workers' compensation costs should be made carefully to avoid undoing the positive impacts of S.B. 218. Additionally, business owners have not fully utilized the Premium Cost Containment Program also established by the legislation. Any modifications to workers' compensation statutes should be minor and very carefully thought out. Timeframe: Wait at least one to two years to properly assess the impacts of S.B. 218. Required Resources: N/A 3. Evaluate the state tax structure to determine ways to simplify sales tax collection and local procedures. State Response: Currently, 43 home rule cities and the State of Colorado collect sales tax from retail businesses. Additionally, there are numerous different interpretations regarding sales taxability. Each city also has different forms and sets of procedures for remitting sales tax collected. There are two alternatives that could be combined or proposed separately. One, there should be a single sales tax return for the collection of all sales taxes filed with the state. Second, a uniform set of standards should be used to determine which products are subject to sales tax. With either proposal, home rule cities should retain the right to determine the tax rates and auditing of businesses within their jurisdiction. Timeframe: These changes, which will require legislative and/or constitutional changes, would take at least two years. Required Resources: N/A 4. vse the ®ffice of Regulatory Reform to review and then eliminate the number of unnecessary forms required by the state. State Response: ORR is currently involved in paperwork reduction efforts. The office works with one agency per year to evaluate the number of and need for forms and other paperwork requirements. Since 1981, ORR has reviewed -21 - paperwork requirements in the Departments of Health, Revenue, Regulatory Agencies and Agriculture. This has resulted in the elimination of 333 forms and the simplification of over 400 separate forms used by these departments. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff 5. Tailor regulations to the needs of rural areas/businesses. Make urban and rural standards distinctive. State Response: In some instances, current regulations already provide flexibility for rural businesses. Air quality standards and permitting requirements vary significantly between urban and rural parts of the state. Agricultural based businesses are held to lower environmental standards and have less stringent employer responsibilities. Many of the remaining problems faced by rural businesses in complying with regulations can be addressed by ensuring that state regulations and statutes are flexible for small businesses -rural and urban. In this way, state rules will not discriminate based upon a business location, but will recognize difficulties a business may have based upon size. It is ORR's responsibility to review all proposed state regulations for their impact on small business. During fiscal year 1992-93, ORR made recommendations for improved flexibility on 12 proposed rules. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff 6. Make regulations and licensing for childcare more reasonable. State Response: (Response pending) Timeframe: Required Resources: 7. Find methods for disclosing hidden costs in legislation. State Response: State agencies should be encouraged to redouble their efforts to identify all costs to business owners, direct and indirect, when adopting regulations and completing fiscal notes on proposed legislation. Local government -22- 1 0 representatives and business advocacy groups must also share responsibility for tracking legislation and testifying before legislative committees. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff, local governments representatives and business advocacy representatives a-B. ®RGARIB~4T8®N/STRUCTURE ®efine "who does what" regarding state community and economic development programs and resources. State Response: The executive and legislative branches are currently examining the structure and service delivery of the state's community and economic development programs/resources. Efforts will be undertaken to modify the current structure so it is more efficient, effective and better serves local communities, businesses and economic development organizations. Timeframe: 1994-95 Required Resources: Existing 2. State economic development programs should be organized into a "one-stop shop" with resources combined and consoBidated. State Response: During the state's review and analysis of the current structure, a single department or "one-stop-shop" will be considered. Creation of a single department would require legislation. Timeframe: 1994-95 Required Resources: Existing 9. ~AR~9NG 9i~®USTR~' VSSUES: ~ . laming tax should have mechanism to assure funds goes where impacts occur, particularly infrastructure impacts. State Response: This is a function of the Gaming Commission and General Assembly. The Governor supports the existing allocation system, including the Contiguous County Impact Grant program. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Gaming tax revenues -23- 2. There are misperceptions of the industry. Additional education and publicity are needed and the Governor's office should provide more support. State Response: The Governor, although opposed to the introduction of gaming into Colorado, accepted the will of the voters and is working to establish and maintain a climate where the industry as a whole can be successful. The Colorado Tourism Board has indicated a willingness to include, but not overemphasize, gaming as a legitimate attraction for visitors. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing 3. There is a question of balance between industry taxes and regulations. State Response: The Governor believes his chief role with regard to gaming is to appoint a competent and respected Gaming Commission to deal with the regulation of the industry. He feels it is inappropriate for a Governor to attempt to influence decisions on regulatory matters before the Gaming Commission. The Governor supports the continuation of the Contiguous County Gaming Impact program. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing 4. Historic preservation dollars are being siphoned away from the communities. Additional accountability is needed. State Response: The allocation of gaming revenues is constitutionally established, with some discretion afforded the Gaming Commission and General Assembly. Voters intended that significant funds be available for historic preservation purposes when the gaming initiative was passed. It is unlikely that the statewide historic preservation share of gaming revenues will be decreased in order to address gaming community capital and operational needs. It is likely these needs can be addressed with local revenue sources and limited state aid once sales, use and property taxes accrue to affected local governments. Timeframe: 1994-96 Required Resources: Existing J. OTHER BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ISSUES: 1. Elimination of rural offices and replacing them with 800 numbers is discriminatory to rural areas. State Response: DOLA has increased the number of field representatives located outside of Denver to eight. OBD maintains a Western Slope office staffed by a -24- full-time business development representative.

State Response: The Department of Agriculture works closely with OBD and the Economic Development-Commission to promote agricultural processing. Increased emphasis should be directed to this effort. Timeframe: Immediate Required Resources: Existing 2. A state-level data bank should be established for agriculture processing development. State Response: The designated lead agency for agricultural processing development will investigate the feasibility of such a data bank and will be responsible for the implementation within existing resources.

Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing EDC funds C. L®RI~ TERRA ISSaJES ~aFFO=CTVN~ A~RIC~JLTURE: The high cost of land and the availability of water threaten the long term sustainability of agriculture. State Response: The state should promote the programs of the Colorado Agricultural Development Authority and continue to seek more creative ways of financing agricultural real estate. Additionally, the state should ensure that water remains available for agriculture, and should promote irrigation efficiency technology through CSU Cooperative Extension. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing 2. State tax and inheritance rules threaten the continuation of family farming and ranching. Mate Response: These are issues which must be addressed legislatively. Timeframe: N/A Required Resources: N/A 3. incentives are needed to preserve viable agricultural lands threatened by urbanization. State Response: There is low feasibility for this type of incentive due to the high cost to local governments and the continued desire for local control of land use. However, some incentives are available. The federal Conservation Reserve Program pays landowners to maintain grasslands. Federal tax benefits may encourage the sale or donation of a conservation easement that prevents development on ag land. Land trusts generally take the-lead in negotiating such transactions. Local governments, through their land use planning and zoning authority, may also provide incentives to landowners. -27- State government has not played a major role in providing incentives to preserve ag lands. The recently approved Great Outdoors Colorado program may provide financial and other incentives to local governments and landowners to preserve ag lands. Timeframe: LOCO should have its program operational in early 1994. Required Resources: GOCO funds (potentially) 4. Keep agriculture water with ag land. State Response: In order to examine this very complex issue, the Colorado Water Conservation Board is studying the Fort Lyon Canal system in the..Arkansas River basin. This effort is attempting to evaluate options for water use which will allow for interruptable supplies to farmers during dry-years by land fallowing or water banking, which in turn allows for additional water supplies for municipalities during critical times, while providing income to the agricultural communities. The water can then be returned to the farmer during normal supply years. Additionally, the board has received $450,000 for atwo-year study which will explore cooperative ways for better integration of existing municipal water systems, the storing of surplus surface supplies into groundwater aquifers for later retrieval during drought, and the utilization of water from agriculture first and then returning it fully treated for reuse on ag lands. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing D. OTHER MAJOR AGRICULTURE ISSUES: - - 1. Ensure that agriculture producers have reasonable rail and highway systems in order to access markets. Resist abandonment of rail lines. State Response: The state must ensure that agricultural commodity transportation needs are recognized and provided for in long-range state transportation plans. The Colorado Department of Transportation has worked cooperatively with the PUC, the Department of Agriculture and the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation in opposing several recent rail abandonment actions around the state. The Colorado Rail Advisory Committee passed a resolution encouraging CDOT and the Transportation Commission to act to preserve available rights-of-waythroughoutthe state for the transportation and.economic benefit of. the..citizens of Colorado. The adequacy of highway access for farm-to-market activity is being addressed by the Transportation Planning Regions as part of the statewide planning process.

State Response: (Response pending) Timeframe: Required Resources: 3. Agribusiness feels left out of the overall state economic development strategy. State Response: The state has sought additional input from agribusiness through the regional community and economic development meetings hosted by the Governor in June and July. The state should also consider greater representation by agribusiness in the planning process: ~ _ Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing E. LAN® vSE AN® PA,.JBLI~ D_Af~® ISSUES: State and federal agencies should recognize that their decisions impact local land use and planning policies and often drive local costs. State Response: The state agrees that impacts are significant. State Department of Natural Resources agencies (e.g., Division of Wildlife, Division of Parks, State Land Board and State Engineer's Office) try to maximize the benefits of their decisions, but must act in a manner consistent with their missions. The department also works with federal agencies to ensure that local and state interests are considered as decisions are made. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff 2. The state should be more proactive in helping local communities work on federal land policy issues. State Response: The Department of Natural Resources works proactively with federal land managers on issues relating to its responsibilities. These issues are often important to local communities. For example, grazing, timber harvests, oil and gas production, recreation and the protection of scenic vistas are issues DNR has addressed with federal agencies. -Local communities that have a specific concern, need or problem can seek advice and assistance from DNR agencies. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff -29- 3. Conflicts among ranching, tourism and recreational interests over use of public lands must be resolved. State Response: DNR has played an active role in resolving conflicts through participation in public land planning efforts, cooperative projects that include private interests and outreach efforts to special interests. While the decisions often rest with federal agencies, state input seeks to resolve conflict in order to maximize the benefits of federal land use for the state as a whole. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing staff 4. Develop more cooperative local, state, federal partnerships regarding recreational projects on public lands. - State Response: Expanded cooperative partnerships involving recreational projects among different levels of government are needed. As tax dollars become increasingly scarce due to the passage of Amendment I, joint usage of public lands will become even more important over time. Several existing coalitions and projects have already taken the lead in stimulating more cooperative projects. Among them are the State Land Board's Multiple Use Policy for State Trust Lands, which opens up 225 parcels and nearly 150,000 acres of trust lands to hunting and other forms of recreation; the Denver Water Board's intent to open up access to most of its resources for recreational uses; the Metro Mountain Parks Coordinating Council, which is considering expanded usage of Denver Mountain Park lands; and the Colorado Outdoor Recreation Resource Project (CORRP), composed of state, federal and local government representatives looking into ways to expand cooperative ventures. . Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Unknown F. OUTDOOR RECREATION/WILDLIFE ISSUES: 1. Rapid growth and development are adversely affecting wildlife habitat. State Response: It is a reality that the influx of people and associated development are having a significant adverse impact on wildlife and their habitats.The importance of wildlife habitat should not be overlooked in development plans. County and city governments should carefully consider wildlife values and potential . conflicts before approving developments in undeveloped areas. Mitigation of wildlife losses is an essential part of the land use development process. The Department of Natural Resources has limited tools for addressing the impacts - 30 - a a of population growth and development on wildlife habitat. The Division of Wildlife advises local governments, land owners, federal land managers and others as to the potential impacts of their land use decisions, but the division has no regulatory authority.

S$a$e Response: The Wildlife Commission reduced_the length of buck deer seasons in 1992, and the impact on license sales for the 1992 season was significant. Although the division sold significantly more either-sex deer licenses through the draw process, sales of buck deer licenses, traditionally sold by license agents over the counter, were down by over 61,000. Preliminary estimates indicate the economic loss to communities was in excess of $13.5 million. This figure does not include the $3.5 million loss to the state from deer license sales. An increase in elk license sales compensated partially for the loss in deer license sales. However, net loss in deer/elk license sales to the state was $1.8 million in 1992.

S$a$e Response: Several projects are currently underway, with additional ones on board as a result of Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO). The Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area, involving local, state and federal recreation providers along the river corridor between Leadville and Pueblo, has already resulted in significant economic benefits for local communities and private industry. North Sterling Reservoir, now being developed as a state park, will capture economic benefits now going to Nebraska. The Colorado River State Park project will greatly enhance Grand Junction's economic development potential. Additionally, a future state park in the southeast part of the state will help stimulate economic development in the future. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: GOCO funds (potentially) -31- c s a G. GREAT OUTDOORS COLORADO ISSUES 1. Resolve Great Outdoors Colorado funding questions such as meaning of regional significance and disbursement equity. State Response: The GOCO Board is currently developing its long-term goals and operational plan.. Issues relating to regional significance and fund disbursement will be addressed as part of these board deliberations. Timeframe: early 1994 Required Resources: GOGO funds 2. Reduce wildlife habitat loss through better local/county planning, better state/private coordination, use of conservation easements .and open space supported by GOCO funding. State Response: Wildlife is a key component of Colorado's natural resources which supports a vital tourism industry. Balancing human population growth, maintaining a broad based economy and preserving the rich and diverse natural resources will become an ever-increasing challenge. Federal, state and local governments must work cooperatively in developing comprehensive, coordinated long-range land use plans to address these issues. GOCO will provide financial incentives to both public and private entities to find creative ways to protect wildlife habitat. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: GOCO funds (potentially) 3. Use GOCO funds for mining reclamation. State Response: The constitutional amendment provides direction to the GOCO Board on how to spend the funds, but does allow some discretion. The reclamation of mining sites could, under some circumstances, be part of a project funded by GOCO. The board will address this possibility as it develops its goals and operating plan. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: GOCO funds (potentially) 4. Use GOCO funds to protect railroad rights-of-way._from abandonment. State Response: The use of GOCO funds to protect abandoned railroad rights-of- way will certainly be considered along with acquisition and development of other state and locally significant trail corridors. Opportunities to protect these excellent trail resources are rare. GOCO funds could possibly be used to temporarily hold -32- 6 I an abandoned railroad corridor until local communities can decide to take advantage of such opportunities. However, converting abandoned railroad lines to trail corridors is a controversial issue. Timeframe: Ongoing - Rewired Resources: GOCO funds (potentially) H. WATER 6~~Q.lE~: The state should implement a statewide water efficiency plan to Bimit public expenditures for water storage, treatment and delivery. Mate Response: The Colorado Water Conservation Board has two programs that deal directly with water efficiency; one directed at municipal users..and the other at agriculture users. Both are grant programs to study and develop innovative water conservation programs. There must be a balance between efficient use, water storage and growth. The Colorado Water Conservation Board is the state's lead agency in dealing with this issue. Timeframe: Ongoing Rewired Resources: Existing 2. Colorado water law should be reviewed with consideration to conversion of irrigation rights for commercial use, minimum stream flow for economic benefit arad other economic development uses, including recreational storage. Mate Response: Colorado water law already allows for conversion of water from one use to another through the water court process. Water cannot be converted without consideration of injury to other water users. Water rights are property rights, and if the state were to take away existing water users supply, it would be necessary to compensate the owner and user. Additionally, the Colorado Water Conservation Board manages a program to protect the instream flow users, as well as minimum lake levels. Timeframe: Ongoing Rewired Resources: Existing . 3. Eong term planning and coordination am®ng governments, education arad better use of conservation as a management tool must be improved to better manage state's water resources.

The Oil and Gas Conservation Commission should more appropriately balance surface ownership rights and mineral development rights with regard to drilling and production impacts. State Response: The Oil and Gas-Conservation Commission will-propose statutory changes to expand and clarify its mission to place protection of public health, safety and welfare on a level equal with promotion of oil and gas resource development and also to clarify and strengthen its enforcement capabilities. The commission has also recently issued new policies and regulations which require stricter reclamation practices and timeframes, 30-day notification to landowners before commencement of operations and segregation and protection of soils. Additional rulemaking efforts to ensure protection of public health and welfare are underway. These added measures require additional staff. The Legislature has provided for the contract hiring of two additional inspectors through June 30, 1994. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing 2. Revamp Mined Land Reclamation Board regulations to balance public and private interests. State Response: During the 1993 session, the Legislature passed S.B. 247 which amended the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Act to provide more balance in the review and permitting of mining operations within the state. The bill also granted broader powers to the Mined Land Reclamation Board to develop regulations that more fully protect public and private interests from the potential adverse effects of mining operations, while recognizing the economic importance of the mining industry to the state. Timeframe: Ongoing Required Resources: Existing -34- Q O 1 3. Fisting of R~@exican Spotted ®wl on endangered species list could have adverse impact on timber industry. State Response: The listing of a species is based solely on scientific data. If the owl is listed and critical habitat is designated in Colorado, the Department of Natural Resources works with federal agencies, local governments and others to minimize the impacts associated with habitat protection and recovery efforts. Federal law may limit the options available for avoiding or minimizing impacts. Timeframe: N/A Rea~uired Resources: N/A 4.

Once notified, any required changes in the work will be addressed pursuant to Article 7, AIA Document A 201 and any other pertinent provision herein. Failure to notify the other party will result in a denial of any adjustment in the Contract Sum and Contract Time. We would also request the following changes in the AIA Document A 201. In paragraph 4.3.6, we would request that in line ten, the word "promptly" be deleted and replaced by the word "~**~Tnediately." ale also request that the phrase "and in no event later than twenty one (21) days" be deleted.

Under this type of charter, the mayor has the authority to hire and fire department heads, prepare the budget for.council consideration and administer it after adoption, and veto acts of the city council (which can override that veto only by an extraordinary majority). That's concentrating _a tremendous: amount of. power in one person! And, it can go even further. In.the consolidated city/county of Denver, Colorado, the mayor can: • Award any contract up to $500,000 without reference to the city council. • Remit any fines or penalties levied under any ordinance passed by the city council. The only requirement is that the mayor must notify the council of the remittance and ' the rationale-behind it. • Submit an annual budget to the city council in which not one line item can be changed without a two-thirds vote of the council. • Appoint the heads of all administrative departments (some 50 in number) the county judges, and all boards and commissions under his jurisdiction. No city council advice or confirmation is provided for any of these appointments. Gurwitt argues that to exercise political leadership, a mayor has to have administrative authority similar to that described above. The strong mayor form relies on a single, powerful leader who often forges coalitions by exchanging benefits for support and uses his or her power to gain leverage over opponents. This approach has built-in limitations. There are too many actors that a mayor cannot control and too little power and too few resources to predictably compel or buy support. Leadership that uses power to forge coalitions is not necessarily responsive, particularly to those outside the ruling coalition. on the contrary, a number of highly regarded American mayors have demonstrated that political clout can be achieved without o• e~ - 3 administrative responsibilitye Two outstanding examples from large council-manager communities come immediately to minds former San Antonio Mayor Henry Cisneros, who possessed the strong leadership skills necessary to become Secretary of the UoSo Department of Housing and Urban Developmento and former Charlotte Mayor Harvey Gantt, who continues to reside in that city and runs his own architectural firmo When Cisneros took office as mayor of San Antonio in 1981, he inherited a sleepy, lower-income city with major problems in its educational systems Cisneros envisioned San Antonio as an international economic and tourist attraction, however, and he worked tirelessly to achieve that dreamo Although he had no responsibility for the city°s public or higher educational systems (in Texas, school boards are elected separately and responsible for their own budgets), Cisneros recognized that education was the key to the realization of his visiono He unceasingly lobbied The University of Texas System and the State College Coordinating Hoard to locate an engineering school at The University of Texas at San Antonio, and he pushed the Texas Legislature for more money for public educationo He then went on the road to sell San Antonio as a biomedical headcguarterso His efforts to attract tourism were also successfule San Antonio became only the fourth .site in the country to boast a Sea Worlds His mayorship culminated in a drive to build the domed sports stadium that opened this summer to capacity crowds for the UoSo Summer Olympic F'estivala + ~ 4 Cisneros also possessed the leadership skills to build consensus among highly divergent city factions. He used a series of bond elections and other strategies to bring together the city's business community and Hispanic neighborhoods. Strong leaders such as Henry Cisneros realize that they are most, effective when they are supported by an effective professional manager. Cisneros has said that San Antonio's greatest successes "can be attributed directly to our council-manager :form of government, characterized by top-flight professionals with a corruption-free, fiscally sound administration." Harvey Gantt's record in Charlotte as that city's mayor from 1983 to 1987 is no less impressive. He was instrumental in the construction of the 24,000-seat Charlotte Coliseum and helped the team owner win an NBA franchise for the new facility. He also spearheaded the construction of a performing arts center in down- town Charlotte in partnership with NationsBank's construction of their new 60-story corporate headquarters. Through the city's neighborhood, small area, and district land planning processes, Gantt provided citizens with a voice, and he led the creation of a public-private housing partnership that leveraged private sector funds to increase Charlotte's supply of affordable housing and promote home ownership. Gantt is very clear about his views on the different forms of government: "The council-manager form of government is absolutely the best form...particularly because it leaves the mayor and council free to focus on the big policy issues. The day- to-day operations of the city do not distract the mayor ~s 5 from this focus; they are left to a professional city manager and professional staff. Therefore, the council- manager form is a better and cleaner form because roles are clearly defined.0° Gurwitt makes a second assumption that the .council manager plan is outdated because it cannot respond to the new demands of highly diverse communities. %n speaking with citizens in Dallas, Texas, however, a different story emerges--that what ethnic minorities really want is more participation in the process, not- politics as usual. Gurwitt assumes that political clout and responsiveness can and should come from only one individual rather than the entire city council. Reformers always intended that the council-manager form would strengthen the quality and responsiveness of service delivery and - address basic citizen needs. The council-manager fora is not less responsive; indeed, the strongest examples of citizen participation can be found in council-manager communities. The city of Dayton, for example, was the first large city to adopt the council-manager form and it remains a strong advocate of professional local government management. For years Dayton°s neighborhood boards have been cited as models of citizen involvement. Similarly, the city of Cincinnati has a long and distinguished history. of neighborhood activism. And remember the David and Goliath story about how the city of Alexandria went up against Virginia Governor Doug Wilder and Washington Redskins owner Sack Kent Cooke? The city had other plans for the land the-governor wanted to use for the stadium. Mayor Pat Ticer successfully worked with the city staff and 6 citizens to fight the plan to move the stadium to Alexandria. Gurwitt goes on to suggest that the council-manager form means "leaderless" government; that "the more hands on the tiller, the harder it is to steer." He discusses the perceived lack of "tools" a mayor in a council-manager community possesses to bring people together toward a common purpose--particularly people of widely diverse racial and ethnic .backgrounds. Gurwitt argues that council-manager mayors have only "facilitative" leadership to fall back on, and that this type of leadership is insufficient to deal with today's heterogeneous communities. But do we really want the .tools to be trading votes for services? Political leadership should not be confused with reactive, demand-responsive leadership. Too often, the political leadership in strong mayor governments encourages conflict among elected officials, which, in turn, produces political gridlock and a reliance on short-term coalition building. As a result, officials in mayor-council cities are more likely to avoid making hard choices. An article recently published in the To1ed~ Blade, for example, assesses the current condition of Rochester, N.Y.: "Since Rochester adopted the strong mayor form of government in the mid-1980s, council has allocated to itself a growing amount of resources to place a check on the power of the mayor. That figure has loomed as high as $500,000, or about .002 percent of its annual budget." The council-manager form, on the other hand, uniquely blends , political and professional leadership. Although political supremacy of the mayor and council are assured, the elected officials empower the city manager with the independence needed to 0 u make sound recommendations to council and to manage the local government organization using the highest professional standardso %n closing, Gurwitt implies that communities can switch to a strong mayor form of government and still retain the level of professional management that citizens have come to expect in council-manager citieso One of the big differences in the two forms, however, is the fact that in council°manager communities, the manager is.appointe~ by and responsible to the entire 'city councile Under the strong mayor form, the chief administrative officer-°if one is appointed-°responds solely to the mayoro The council has, little input into that individual°s selection or supervisiono Although some CAOs may have previously served as city managers in council-manager communities, the average tenure of a CAO in a~ strong mayor city is much shorter in comparison and may undermine the city°s continuitye To be sure, council-manager communities also experience turnover, but in most cases, these cities hire experienced managers to replace experienced managerse For example, P~arvin Andrews retired from Phoenix after serving as that city°s manager for 14 yearso Rich Helwig recently finished his ninth year as Dayton°s city manager° And Wendell White in Charlotte has served an even dozen years in that communityo This kind of continuity is less likely to occur in strong mayor-council communities where a single individual frequently chooses a CAO based on their political loyalties rather than their professional management abilitieso . Professional city managers not only have the capacity to serve 8 different types of cities; they also attract other top executives to administer city functions and activities. Today the complexity of city service delivery calls for individuals with superb organi- zational skills, a good sense of strategic management, and the ability to communicate effectively with disparate city factions-- not inexperienced political loyalists. In a 1992 issue of Public Administration Review, author Irene Rubin examined the adoption of new and innovative budget tec:hniques in six major U.S. cities during the past 20 years. Of the six cities, which included Dayton, Phoenix, Rochester, Tampa, Boston and St. Louis, the more politically reformed were more likely to adopt budget reforms quickly and were. more receptive to trying new approaches. The least-reformed cities, on the other- hand, incorporated budget reforms that 1°enhanced central control over departmental operations." For the purpose of her article, Rubin defined politically reformed communities as those that operate under the council-manager form, hold at-large council elections, and have a weak history of employee patronage. It's no accident that for the past two years, the majority of the National Civic League's All-American Cities have been council- manager communities. This year, seven of the 10 honorePS were council-manager. It is also worth noting that of Financial Wor3d magazine's list of the nine best managed communities, three of the top five, including Dallas at No. 1 and Phoenix at No. 2, operate under the council-manager form. Since Gurwitt "showcased" Dallas as a long-time council- o ~0 9 manager city that has considered a change in its form of government, it seems appropriate to take a closer look at that city°s political situationo Lori Palmer, a former Dallas council member who had represented an inner city district, describes the impact such a change would have on the citye 0°If a strong mayor form of government were instituted, the real losers would be all 14 of Dallas° council membersa First, council members necessarily would lose their power and see it transferred to the mayoro Second, council members would lose their access to the city administrators and department heads, who would be responsible and beholden only to the mayor, who would have the sole authority to hire and fire themo°B 00The bottom line is that Dallas° council members, by having to give up both power and staff access, would become less rather than more effective in representing and serving their diverse eonstituencieso %n the end, the citizens would be the final losers,0° In many council-manager communities, hispanic and African- American activists have realized that for the first time they are being represented on the city council in numbers that reflect their community°s diversitye As Gurwitt reported in his article, °0the talk of moving to a strong mayor looks a lot like a ploy by the Old Guard to shift power away from the newly diverse counciloBO Al Lipscomb is an African-American businessman, long-time civil rights leader and, until 3une of this year, eras mayor pro-tem of the Dallas city council e Both he and Aqs o Palmer 00retired°B from the Dallas council this spring after serving the maximum number of consecutive terms allowed by the city chartero Mro Lipscomb opposes changing the Dallas form of government and observed that °Bevery time minorities get into the loop, the rules are changed . under some pretext or through some slick schemes°0 e` 1~ At one time, current Dallas Mayor Pro-Tem Domingo Garcia thought he could support a move toward an strong-mayor government. Today, however, he states that "North Dallas has the economic and political clout: to continue to elect a mayor, and under a strong-mayor system, we would be left out. We are finally getting on the city council, and I want to increase the power and authority of the council, not decrease it as [a move toJ the strong-mayor system would do." To summarize, the stressful challenges today°s big cities face definitely call for strong political leadership. However, as National Civic League President John Parr has said., "Looking for political leadership does not need to mean getting rid of the council-manager plan or decreasing the role of the professional manager....This is not only a time of new partnerships arross old - political and geographical boundaries, but a time of new partner- ships within local governments as well." But what of the challenge of providing leadership within a metropolitan or regional framework where units of government may number in the hundreds and special districts also abound. In situations such as these, don't communities need a really strong mayor, who not only has a vision and can build consensus, but who has the authority to fix things, make and enforce decisions, and "twist tails if necessary"? In his new book entitled CITISTATES, Neal Peirce notes that "in. some cities there's still a nostalgia for the brand of decisive leadership exerted by a few exalted power brokers." He cites the work of banker Richard King Mellon and Mayor David Lawrence in Pittsburgh, who together spearheaded a renaissance in that city in 0 1.1 the 1940x. Peirce notes that> ooToday the A~ellon-Lawrence act can be seen as heavily elitist, a relic of the time when small power cliques controlled each ~,merican city and brooked little opposition. The old titans, the small bunch of senior white males that met in exclusive clubs to make decisions that swayed cities° whole futures, are a virtually extinct species. Power in American communities seems to have been atomised by the rise of fresh power groups< upstart industries and businesses, powerful developers, ethnic alliances, organized blacks and Hispanics and Asians, environmental and women°s and social service groups, and many more.00 Today°s city or citistate leadership cannot be one of power, but rather of consensus building and facilitation. Gurwitt fittingly quotes Dr. James Svara of ATorth Carolina State University, who has studied the roles of mayors in both forms of government extensively over the past decade, Svara argues that the pressures of civic diversity will produce facilitative mayors who oolead by empowering others--in particular the council and the manager=-rather than seeking power for himself or herself.oo Under the council-manager form, the effective mayor is a leader who not only contributes to the smooth functioning of government, but also provides a general sense of direction. These individuals enhance the influence of elected officials by unifying the council, filling the policy vacuum that can exist on the ` council, and guiding policy toward goals that meet the needs of the community. They are actively involved in monitoring and adjusting relations within local government to maintain balance, cooperation, and high standards. Contrary to the view of some that strong mayors are harmful to the city manager, effective mayors enhance the performance of both the manager and the council. ~ 12 In the final analysis, what is really needed in today's big cities are STRONG mayors, STRONG city councils, and STRONG city managers. None of the three are mutually exclusive; they can and do work together today in many of the country's successful council- manager cities. _ # # # i:Fr ~ I < t ~ ~ z ~ ~ y~ ~ ~ • / r r F Fry"T ~t ~~`~t'SI~~',j, ~j$~+. ~ I ~ x'.f~11 ?"~fi T .'~?i /jam J ~ A~ "u i ~ 'r'~n3't ~~^r~4f• .e: .--u 3:a ~ ~ ~ ~~..-i -ti :_w 1.~ 5;•_ -r'. • ~'9 ~p°~l~®/ Hello!

Based on my review of the plans, there are only twenty legal spaces on the site and there need to be an additional four spaces added to the plan. 2. There are three areas of the site where the retaining walls exceed 6 feet in height. A particular concern to me regarding retaining walls is the area next to the entrance to the property. The topography grades do not correlate to the retaining walls shown for this area. Redesign this so that it is clear what the finished grade of the slope will be as well as the height of retaining walls. Mr. Brown, Mr. Warder, and Mr. Engstrom September 14, 1993 Page Two 3. As much of the existing vegetation on the northwest area of the site must be preserved. Submittal Maferial ' 1. Have your engineer reevaluate the rockfall study as well as the Municipal Code section outlining the information to be included in his findings. Please focus specifically on Section 18.69.020. It appears from his report, that he does not believe the rockfall will be a significant hazard. I am basing this conclusion on his statement that "the geologic conditions are such that the site can be developed for the specific structures and uses shown on the aforementioned site plan and that such proposed development can be accomplished without corrective engineering or engineered construction and without the need for other mitigation or alterations." I believe he has taken this conclusion based on the criteria found in 18.69.020(B)(1)(a). In addition to this criteria, he needs to specifically quote Section 18.69.020(B)(.1)(b). It is imperative that he discuss the potential increase in hazard to other properties or structures, or to public buildings, rights-of-way, roads, streets, easements, utilities, facilities or other properties of construction. 2. Have your engineer provide a drainage plan according to the standards that Greg Hall, the Town Engineer, has requested. After review with Tom Moorhead, the Town Attorney, staff believes that a complete drainage plan is required as part of the Design Review Board (DRB) submittal information. Please refer to Section 18.54.050(D)(5, 6, and 7). Other 1. All structures must be sprinklered. 2. All structures must be Type V construction. 3. Fire hydrants must be provided in locations determined by the Fire Department. 4. The fire lanes shown on the plans must be posted with signs and must be recorded as a meets and bounds easement prior to the issuance of any . building permits. 5. Driveways may not exceed 8% slope. Mr. Brown, Mr. Warder, and Mr. Engstrom September 14, 1993 Page Three 6. Retaining walls may not exceed 6 feet in height. 7. Sewer service to this site must be provided via a lift station which will be installed owned and maintained by the owner of Lot G-4. Each of these conditions must be fulfilled prior to any issuance of building permits for this site. Please call me if you have any questions about these items.

Actions of the design review board shall be guided by the objectives prescribed in Section 18.54.010, the Vail Village and Vail Lionshead Urban Design Considerations and Guide Plans, by all of the applicable ordinances of the Town of Vail, and by the following design guidelines: A. General. 1. Structures shall be compatible with existing structures, their surroundings, and with Vail's environment. It is not . to be inferred that buildings must look alike to be compatible. Compatibility can be achieved through the proper consideration of scale, proportions, site blannin~, landscaping, materials and colors~~~mFlian~P ~I~~*'~ the_ guidelines herein contained. 454c wa,~ s-z-ss~ ZONING ~ 2. Any building site in Vail is likely to have its own unique land forms and features. Whenever possible, these exist- ing features should be preserved and reinforced by new construction. The objective is to fit the buildings to their ~r sites in a way that leaves the natural land forms and features intact, treating the buildings as an integral part of . ,the site, rather than as isolated objects at odds with their - surroundings. B.. Site planning. 1:. The location and configuration of structures and access ways shall be responsive to the existing topography of the - site upon which they are to be located. Grading require- ments resulting from development shall be designed to blend into the existing or natural landscape. Any cuts or fills shall be sculptural in form and contoured to blend with the existin>~ natural undisturbed terrain within the property boundary. 2. Building siting and access thereto shall be responsive to . existing features of terrain rock outcroppings, drainage patterns, and vegetation. 3. Removal of trees, shrubs, and other native vegetation shall be limited to removal of those essential for develop- ment of the site or those identified as diseased. 4. All areas disturbed during construction shall be re- vegetated. If necessary, the DRB may designate allowable limits of construction activity and require physical bar- riers in order to preserve significant natural features and vegetation upon a site and adjacent sites during con- ~ struction. . 5. All projects shall be designed so as to provide adequate snow storage areas for snow cleared from the parking areas and roadways within the project. C. Building materials and design. l~. Building materials shall be predominantly natural such as wood siding, wood shakes, and native stone. Brick is acceptable. Where stucco is utilized, gross textures and . surface features that appear to imitate other materials shall be avoided. Concrete surfaces shall be treated with texture and color if used, however exposed aggregate is more acceptable than raw concrete. Neither aluminum . 454d (Vail 8-2-88) DESIGN REVIEW steel, or plastic siding, nor simulated stone or brick shall be permitted. Plywood siding shall not be permitted. . 2. The same or similar building materials and colors shall be used on main structures and any accessory structures upon the site. 3. Exterior wall colors should be compatible with the site and surrounding buildings. Natural colors (earth tones found within the Vail area) should be utilized. Primary colors or other bright colors should be used only as accents and then sparingly such as upon trim or railings. All exterior wall materials must be continued down to finished grade thereby eliminating unfinished foundation walls. All exposed metal flashing, trim, flues, and roof top mechanical equipment shall be annodized, painted or capable of weathering~so as to be non-reflective. 4. The majority of roof forms within Vail are gable roofs with a pitch of at least four feet in twelve feet. However, other roof forms are allowed. Consideration of environ- mentaland climatic determinants such as snow shedding, drainage, and solar exposure should be integral to the roof design. 5. Roof lines should be designed so as not to deposit snow on parking ,areas, trash storage areas, stairways, decks . and balconies, or entryways. Secondary roofs, snow clips, and snow guards should be utilized to protect these areas from roof snow shedding if necessary. 6. Roof surfacing materials shall be compatible with the side and surrounding buildings. The predominant roof materials utilized shall be wood shakes and their use is strongly encouraged. The use of metal roofs is acceptable, however in no instance will metal roofs which reflect direct sunlight onto an adjacent property be permitted. If metal roofs are used they shall be surfaced with aloes-gloss finish or capable of weathering to a dull finish. Metal roofs shall generally have a standing seam in order to provide some relief to the roof surface and be of a heavy gauge. Asphalt and fiberglass shingles shall be permitted provided that they weigh no less than three hundred pounds per roofing square foot and are of a design and color to be compatible with the . requirements of Section 18.54.050. • 454e (Vail 1-8-91) 1, ZOl~IIVG 7. Rooftop heating and air conditioning equipment, large vent stacks, elevator penthouses and similar features should be avoided, however, if necessary, shall be de- signed to be compatible with the overall design of the structure or screened from view. Rooftop antennae shall not be permitted unless as allowed under a conditional use review as specifed within the zoning code. g. Solar collectors shall lie flat on pitched roofs, however, when retrofitting an existing building with active solar the collectors should be designed and placed in a manner compatible with the overall design of the building. 9. Deep eaves, overhangs, canopies, and other building features that provide shelter from the elements are encouraged. 10. Fenestration should be suitable for the climate and for the orientation of the particular building elevation in which the fenestration occurs. The use of both passive and active solar energy systems is strongly encouraged. 11. Exterior lighting shall be designed and located in a manner to minimize impact of lighting upon living areas within a proposed project and upon adjacent structures and properties. 12. In no instance shall a duplex structure be so constructed - as to result in each half of the structure appearing substantially similar or mirror image in design. D. Landscaping/drainage/erosion control. 1. ~larious natural vegetation zones exist within the Gore Malley as a result of the form and aspects of the land itself. 454E ~ . ~ . (vail 1-~-91) ~ DESIGN REVIEW The north facing slopes within the valley are typically heavily wooded with spruce, pine and. aspen and generally receive less direct sunlight than the drier south facing slopes which typically consist of sage, aspen and other vegetation tolerant of drier conditions. The valley floor which is adjacent to Gore Creek consists of wide variety of trees and shrubs adapted to the relatively fer"tile soil and natural availability of water. The goal of anv landscape plan should be to preserve and enhance the natural landscape character of the area in which it is to be located. The landscape scale and overall landscape design shall be developed so that new vegeta- tion is integral with the natural landscape and the inherent form line, color and texture of the local plant communities. Since the maior objective of the land- scaping is tohelp reduce the scale of new structures and to assist in the screening of structures, the planting of large sized plant materials is encoura,~ed. Special care should be taken in selecting the types of plants to use when designing a landscape plan: Final selection should be based upon~the soils and climate, ease of establishment, suitability for the specific use desired, and the level of maintenance that can be provided. New planting shall use plants that are indigenous to the~Rocky Mountain alpine and sub-alpine zones or as capable of being introduced into these zones. A list of plant materials indigenous to the Vail area is on file with the department of community development. Also indicated on the list are ornamentals which are suitable for planting within the Vail area. The minimum sizes of landscape materials acceptable are as follows: Required trees. Deciduous -two inch caliper Conifers -six foot Required shrubs - #5 gallon container Foundation shrubs shall have a minimum height of eighteen inches at time of planting. 2. Landscape design shall be developed to locate new planting in order to extend existing canopy edges oi• . ~ 454g (Vail 11-15-83) y . ZONING ~ . planted in natural looking groups. Geometric plantings, evenly spaced rows of trees, and other formal landscape patterns shall be avoided. 3. Particular attention shall be given the landscape design of off-street parking lots to reduce adverse impacts upon living areas within the proposed development, upon adjacent properties, and upon public spaces with regard to noise, lights, and visual impact. Parking lots of fifteen or more spaces shall comply with the landscape require- . ments found in Section 18.52.080(F.) of the Vail Munici- pal Code. 4. All landscaping shall be provided with a method of irrigation suitable to ensure the continued maintenance of planted materials. 5. ~'Vhenever possible natural drainage patterns upon the _ site shall not be modified. Negative drainage impacts upon adjacent sites shall not be allowed. 6. Runoff from impervious surfaces such as roofs and pavement areas shall be directed to natural or improved rlraina~e channels or dispersed into shallow sloping vegetated areas. 7. Slope of cut and fill banks shall be determined by soil characteristics for the specific site to avoid erosion, and promote revegetation opportunities, but in any case shall be limited to a maximum of 2:1 slope. 8. Measures shall be taken to retain all eroded soil material on site during construction, control both ground water and surface water runoff, and to permanently stabilize all disturbed slopes and drainage features upon completion of construction. 9. All plants shall be planted in a good quality topsoil mix.of a type and amount recommended by the American Landscape Contractor Association and the Colorado Nurseryman's Association. 10. All plantings must be mulched. 11. Paving near a tree to be saved must contain a plan for a "tree vault" in order to ensure the ability of the roots to - receive air. E. Fencing./walls. - 1. The placement of walls and fences shall respect existing land forms and fit into land massing rather than arbi- ~ (Vail 11-IS-83) 45411 DESIGN REVIEW trarily follow site boundary Iines. Fences shall not be encouraged except to screen trash areas, utility equip- ment, etc: 2. Design of fences, walls, and other structural landscape features shall be of materials compatible with the site and the materials of the structures on the site. Retaining walls and cribbing should utilize natural materials such as wood timbers, logs, rocks, or textured, color tinted concrete. No chain link fences shall be allowed except as temporary construction fences or as required for recrea- tional facilities. 3. The allowable heights of retaining walls shall be as stated in Section 18.58.020 of the Vail Municipal Code. F. Accessory structures/utilities/service areas. 1. Design of accessory structures upon a site shall be compatible with the design and materials 'of the main structure or structures upon the site. 2. Accessory buildings generally should be attached to the main building either directly or by means of a continuous. wall, fence or similar feature of the same or a com- plementarymaterial asthe main building's exterior finish. 3. Satellite dish antennas and similar structures shall not be permitted unless substantially screened from view by fences, berms, or landscaping. 4. All utility service systems shall be installed underground. Any utility system the operation of which requires above ground installation shall be located and/ or screened so as not to detract from the overall site design quality. 5. All utility meters shall be enclosed or screened from public view. 6. Service areas, outdoor storage, and garbage storage shall be screened from adjacent properties, structures, streets, and other public areas by fences, berms, or landscaping. 7. Adequate trash storage areas shall be provided. There shall beyear-round access to all trash storage areas which shall not be used for any other purpose. 8. Mail delivery shall be provided for in accordance with the provisions of Ordinance #40 of 1981. G. Circulation/access. 1. There shall be provided an on-site vehicular circulation ~ system which shall coordinate with adjacent streets to 4541 tva~t 11-15-83) ZONING minimize congestion and adverse impact upon the general traffic circulation pattern in the area. 2. Projects shall provide adequate layout design of parking areas with respect to location and dimension of vehicular and pedestrian entrances and exits, building locations, walkways and recreational trails. 3. Proper vehicle sight distances shall exist at each access point to a public street. (Ord. 39 (1983) § l 18.54.060 design review fee. The town council shall set a design review fee schedule sufficient to cover the cost of town staff time, consultant's fees, and incidental expense. (Ord. 39 (1983) § l 118.54.070 Performance bond. The building official shall not issue a final certificate of occupancy for structures which have obtained design review ~ . approval until upon inspection it is determined that the project is constructed in accordance with the approved design review application and plans, and all improvements, amenities and landscaping have been installed. ~Fhe building official may issue a temporary certificate of occupancy not to exceed two hundred ten days upon the applicant posting with the department of com- munity development a performance bond or other security acceptable to the town council in the sum of one hundred twenty five percent of the bona fide estimate of the cost of installing landscaping and paving and other accessory improvements provided for in the approved design review application and plans. If said landscaping, paving, and other accessory improvements are not installed by the applicant within the period allowed under the temporary certificate of occupancy shall be revoked until the same are installed by the applicant or by the town pursuant to the terms of the performance bond or other accepted security that has been approved by the town. (Ord. 39 (1983) § l.} (Vail l l-f 5-83) 454j DESIGN REVIEW sub-grade placements or other means that both screen the satellite dish antenna and do not appear unnatural on the site. 5. Satellite dish antennas on or attached to existing structures shall be permitted provided the satellite dish antenna is architecturally integrated into the structure. Effective use of color shall be required to ensure compatibility bet~.veen the satellite dish antenna and existing structure. The use of a mesh material shall be strongly . encouraged when attempting to integrate a satellite dish antenna onto an existing structure. 6. Landscaping or other site improvements intended to screen a satellite dish antenna proposed on any application shall be completed prior to the issuance of a building permit to install a satellite dish antenna. A letter of credit equal to one hundred twenty-five .percent of the costs of installing landscaping or site improvements may be submitted to the Town of Vail if seasonal weather conditions prohibit the installation of landscaping or site improvements. 7. All improvements. required by the design- review board for the purpose of reducing the visibility of satellite dish antennas shall remain in place so long as the satellite dish antennas remain in place unless permission to alter or remove said improvements is obtained from the design review board. All satellite dish antennas and all improvements required by the design review board to reduce the visibility of satellite dish antennas shall be adequately maintained and repaired and shall not be allowed to become dilapidated or fall into a state of disrepair. I. Duplex and primary/secondary development. 1. The purpose of this section is to ensure that duplex and primary/secondary development be designed in a manner that creates an architecturally integrated structure with unified site development. Dwelling . ~ 454j-1 (Vail 8-2-88) ZOIVIN'Cp units and garages shall be designed within a single structure, except as set forth in 18.04.050 I,2 thereof, with the use of unified architectural and landscape design. A, single structure shall have common roofs and building walls that create enclosed space substan- tially above grade. Unwed architectural and land- . scape design shall include, but not be limited to, the use of compatible building materials, architectural style, scale, roof forms, massing, architectural details, site grading and landscape materials and features. The presence of significant site constraints may permit the physical separation of units and garages on a site. The determination of whether or not a lot has significant site constraints shall be made by the design review board. Significant site constraints shall be defined as natural features of a lot such as stands of mature trees, natural drainages, stream courses and other natural water features, rock outcroppings, wetlands, other natural features, and existing struc- tures that may create practical difficulties in the site planning and development of a lot. Slope may be considered a physical site constraint that allows for the separation of a garage from a unit. It shall be the . applicant's responsibility to request a determination from the design review board as to whether or not a site has significant site constraints before final design work on the project is presented. This determination shall be made at a conceptual review of the proposal based on review of the site, a detailed survey of the lot (to include information as outlined in Section 18.54.040 C,1 a.) and a preliminary site plan of the proposed structure(s). The duplex and primary/secondary development may be designed to accommodate the development of dwelling units and garages in more than one structure if the design review board determines that significant site constraints exist on the lot. The use of unified architectural and landscape design as outlined in Section 18.54.050 H,1. shall be required for the 454 j -2 (flail 8-2-88) DESIGN REVIEW development. In addition, the design review board may require that one or more of the following common design elements such as fences, walls, patios, decks, retaining walls, walkways, landscape elements, or other architectural features be incorpo- rated to create unified site development.

Purpose, These guidelines shall be used by the design review board in reviewing any proposals for the development of Town of Vail park land. The guidelines shall be used in conjunction with the general design review guidelines found in Section 18.54.050 of the Town of Vail Municipal Code. It is the intent of these guidelines to leave as much design freedom as possible to the individual designer while at the same time encouraging park development that will complement the natural beauty of our park land. The purpose of the guidelines is to provide continuity in the character of the parks which will be developed over many years. The guidelines will provide consistent design criteria to maintain the quality of Town of Vail parks through all phases of development. B. Building materials and design. 1. General. a. Natural materials are strongly encouraged in park construction. Materials and detailing must complement the park's environment as well as be functional and attractive. b. Materials and designs should be chosen that are economical to maintain. 2. Stone. a. Natural rock should be used for architectural features such. as exposed building walls and small retaining walls. Sandy gray and brown colors are encouraged, as they blend in with the natural environment. Construction should minimize exposed . 454j-2a (Vail 1-8-9I) OR®INANCE NO. 20 SERIES OF 1993 AN OR®INANCE SUBMITTING TO THE REGISTERE® ELECTORS OF THE TOWN OF VAIL AT THE REGULAR MUNICIPAL ELECTION TO BE HEL® ON TUES®AY, THE 16TH OF NOVEMBER, 1993, TIDE ®UESTION OF WHETHER THE TOWN OF VAIL SHOUL® BE AUTHORIZE® TO COLLECT AN® SPEN®THE FULL REVENUES GENERATE® INCLU®ING RE®UCTION IN ®EBT SERVICE ®URING 1993 AN® EACH SUBSE(~UENT YEAR [WHICH AMOUNT ®OES NOT INCLU®E REVENUE GENERATE® FROM AD VALOREM PROPERTY TAXES WITHOUT ANY INCREASE IN SUCH TAX RATES AN®TO SPEN®SUCH REVENUES FOR ®EBT SERVICE, MUNICIPAL OPERATIONS, AN® CAPITAL PROJECTS, EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1993, AUTH®RIZING THE TOWN COUNCIL TO A®OPT ANNUAL BU®GETS AN® AMEN®MENTS THERETO TO IMPLEMENT THE APPROVAL OF THIS REFERRE® MEASURE; St u ~ ING FORTH THE BALLOT TITLE; PROVI®ING FOR NOTICE OF THE ELECTION; PROVI®ING FOR CON®UCT OF THE ELECTION; PROVI®ING FURTHER ®ETAILS IN RELATION TO THE FOREGOING.
