Vatley 7th Filing. Applicant: Vail Recreation District.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUiVCIL: Approve or deny Resolution No. 9, to
amend the Vail Land Use Plan from Open Space to Public-Semi Public for the
Vail golf course maintenance facility.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Since 1966, the golf course maintenance facility has
been located on Parcel E. In 1980 this property was annexed into the Town and
zoned Natural Area Preservation District. This facility is a nonconforming use and
any proposed changes to the facility requires a change in 4he Vail Land Use Plan
and a zoning change. Changing the Vail Land Use Plan is the first step in a three
step process, that vuould enable the VRD to rezone the property to the General
Use (GU) District and apply for a conditional use permit to remodel the facility.

9:55 P.M. 7. Appeal of DRB decision to deny the proposed additions and remodel of John
Randy Stouder KredieYs home located at 226 Forest Road/Lot 11-A, Block 7, Vail Village lst
Filing. Applicartt: John Krediet.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Review the design review guidelines
pertaining to Duplex and Primary/Secondary development (attached and
highlighted); review the proposed architecture for the Krediet remodel; and uphold,
modify or overturn the DRB denial of the project.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Although the DRB felt that the proposed remodel
was a definite improvement to Mr. KredieYs home, they felt bound by the design
- review guidelines for duplex and primary/secondary development which require
architectural integration between structures. The existing Krediet and Samuels
residences are located on the same lot in the Primary/Secondary zone district. .
Afthough the two units are physically separated, they are architecturally integrated
according to the design review guidelines. The DRB felt that the proposed
remodel and addition to the primary unit (Krediet residence) produced an
architectural look that departed from the current architectural style of the
secondary unit (Samuels residence) and thus did not meet the design review
guideline requirement of architectural integration between primary and secondary
units.
10:25 P.M. 8. Town Council appeal of the Design Review Board (DRB) approval for a proposed
Jim Curnutte building expansion and site amendmerrts at the Lions Square Lodge, located at

Applicant: Bill Pierce, representing the Lion Square Lodge Condominium
Association.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Review the proposed building expansion
and site amendments and uphold/overtum/modify the decision of the DRB to grant
final design approval for the proposed project.

Environmental Commission (PEC) approved the requested common area and
parking variances and a major exterior afteration in the CCII Zone District, with
conditions (to be discussed in more detail at the meeting). The vote was 7-0.
On February 21, 1995, the Town Council "called up" the PEC decision for further
review. The Council decided to let the PEC approvals stand in order to allow the
project to receive final Design Review Board review. The Council made the
applicant aware that they may then "call up" the DRB approval for further review,
if they so desired.
On March 15, 1995, the Design Review Board approved the project, with conditions
(to be discussed in more detail at the meeting), with a vote of 3-2.

Jim Curnutte pointed out that Kathy was correct, however, that the Land Use Plan
states that the various designations are drawn very general in nature and were not
based on a lot by lot review of properties like zoning is.
Bill Anderson stated that he was in favor of this proposal and that the Town would
receive the benefit of an easement for a golf cart path, as well as a road easement
which will allow the future reconfiguration of Vail Valley Drive. Bill stated that he is all
for the request and pointed out all of the public benefits (easements, water district
improvements, etc.) associated with the request.
Kathy Langenwalter felt that the best use of this land would be park or open space as
it was located in'between land zoned park and land zoned residential. She was not
comfortable with turning the site into a residential area. She also questioned the need for additional residential in this area.
Allison Lassoe felt that Tract C should remain open space.
Dalton Williams disagreed with Kathy's comment that Tract C should remain open
space,or park. He did not feel that the site would necessarily solve the congestion
problems at Gold Peak but merely move them towards East Vail. This being the case,
he did not have a problem with the proposed change to the Vail Land Use Plan.
Bill Anderson made a motion to approve the request for a change to the Vail Land Use
Plan from Park to Low Density Residential per the staff inemo including the four
conditions on Pages 8 or 9 with a wording change to Condition 4 as follows:
4. The Water District has agreed that if the transfer of ownership of the raw
water intake system and associated equipment (pump station, backwash
pipe, vaults, etc.) to the Vail Recreation District is not be completed, and
if the system is not able to become fufly operational, within three'years
from the date of approval of the Land Use Plan change, it will
immediately be removed at the expense of the Water District.
Bob Armour seconded the motion and a 4-2 vote approved this request with Kathy
Langenwalter and Allison Lassoe opposing this item.
8. A request for a major amendment to SDD #4 Cascade Village to allow for the
completion of the Westhaven Condominiums (The Ruins) located at 1325 Westhaven
Drive/Cascade Village, SDD #4.
Applicant: Gerald Wuhrman, General Manager of the Westhaven Condominiums
Planner: Andy Knudtsen It should be noted that Kathy Langenwalter stepped down as chairperson of the PEC
for this item as she is the architect.
Andy Knudtsen made a presentation per the staff inemo. He stated that staff was
Planrnng and Environmental Commission Meeung Minutes
Feoruary 27, 1995

recommending approval of this request for a major amendment to SDD #4 with nine
• conditions contained on Pages 9 and 10 of the staff memo.
Kathy Langenwalter, the architect for the project, stated that she would like to address
staff's conditions on the project. She requested that Condition #1 be eliminated from
the list because the structure of the foundation would rot allow for additional
architectural details. She had added "score lines" in tne stucco to try to address the
concern of staff; and would move the tall trees away from the architectural features to
bring more attention to them. Concerning Condition #2, she felt that given the extent
of the off-site improvements proposed by the applicant, that the staff's request that the
spruce trees be 2 feet higher was unwarranted. Concerning Condition #3, Kathy
requested that the units be allowed to be sold separately.
Robbie Robinson, of Slifer, Smith and Frampton Real Estate, stated that they would
like to be able to offer the employee housing units with the option to sell them off
individualfy.
Bob Armour asked if the 3% cap on resale price would be included as a condition.
Mike Mollica reiterated that staff would lilie to see the block of units remain deed
restricted as commonly owned, until such time as the Housing Authority increases its
staffing and role regarding the individual sale of dwelling units. He stated that the
Town Council will ultimately have to make a decision regarding staffing.
Concerning Condition #4, Kathy Langenwalter stated that it should include curb and
gutter for the ent?,_n !ength of the property except for the short distance to the west of
the bike path. K2- siated that they had no problems w,;n Conditions #5, #6 and #7.
Concerning Conc,..;;r, #8, Kathy stated that it physically aid not work to construct a
sidewalk in the Westhaven Drive right-of-way for the "interconnect" section between
the Cascade Club and the Ruins. Concerning Condition #9, she stated that they were
planning to sprinkler the entire building, including the garage.
Dalton Williams was concerned about people parking at the Ruins. He stated that "he
nearly slipped and busted his rear" coming from the mo~ ~3 a couple of weeks ago.
He felt that it was important to have a sidewalk in this lo:.L;ion since there were
employee housing units being located at the Ruins and that access to the bus service
should be provided.
Andy Knudtsen stated that the Town Engineer was planning to overlay Westhaven
Drive upon the completion of the Ruins project.
Dalton Williams said to strike Condition #1. Regardinc ..;-Idition #3, he felt it was
important that the employee housing units be either owner-occupied or commonly
owned, and not a scenario in-between. He would like to. see the sidewalk issue solved
and wanted to keep Condition #8..
Allison Lassoe felt it was important that the bike path easement be dedicated to the
Planninq and Envnonmental Commission Meeting Minutes
February 27, 1995 14
public.
Bill Anderson stated that he agreed that Condition #1 be struck. Condition #2 he said
should be addressed by the DRB. Concerning Condition #3, he felt that it should
reflect any future action regarding this issue by the Town Council. Concerning
Condition #8, he felt it would be difficult to establish an "interconnect" between the
Ruins and the Cascade Club but that it should be studied.
Bob Armour did not have a problem with the proposed additional GRFA. He wanted
Condition #1 and #2 to be stricken. Concerning Condition #3, he felt it was important
that the Town get a gurantee from the applicant that the employee housing units
remain employee housing units. He thought Condition #8 should be struck.
Greg Amsden was not in favor of the proposal. He stated that the density increase . was not appropriate in this location. He did not feel that additional GRFA should be
the trade off for employee housing units and was concerned this could set a dangerous
precedent. Outside of this, he stated that Conditions #1 and #2 should be stricken.
He also said that a 3% cap should be put on the units if sold separately.
Bob Armour made a motion to approve this request for a major amendment to SDD #4
Cascade Village to allow for the completion of the Westhaven Condominiums (The
Ruins) per the staff inemo with ihe following changes:

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department .
DATE: February 27, 1995
SUBJECT: A request for a major amendment to SDD #4 Cascade Village to allow for the
completion of the Westhaven Condominiums (The Ruins) located at 1325
Westhaven Drive/Cascade Village, SDD #4.
Applicant: Gerald Wuhrman, General Manager of the Westhaven
- Condominiums
Planner: Andy Knudtsen
1. PROJEC7 DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting a major SDD amendment for the Westhaven Condominiums site.
This is one of the parcels located within Area A, Cascade Village, SDD #4. In 1982, the Town
issued a buitding permit for this site and construction started. After a foundation and first floor
parking structure had been completed, construction stopped. The current proposal is to
complete the work, taking the existing improvements and using them as the first floor.
A major SDD amendment is required as the applicant is proposing to change the number of
dwelling units and increase the amount of GRFA. Both of these modifications trigger the
major SDD amendment review process. The approved SDD allows twenty free market units,
ten employee housing units and GRFA of 22.500 square feet for the free market units and
6,400 square feet for the employee housing units. The proposal includes fourteen free market
dwelling units, sixteen employee housing units, 26.284 sq. ft. of GRFA for the free market
units and 7,707 square feet of GRFA for the employee housing units. 7here is a change 40
4he ratio of free market and employee housing units but not an increase in the overall
number of dwelling units. In addition, there is an increase of 3,784 square feet of
additional GRFA for the free market condominiums and 9,304 square feet of additional
GRFA for the employee housing units.
In addition to the modifications requested regarding density, the applicant is proposing minor
modifications to the architecture, landscaping and site coverage requirements. The SDD
required 50% of the site to be landscaped. The'applicant is proposing 47.9%. The site
coverage limitation is 35% and the applicant is proposing 36.7%. These aspects of the
request will be discussed in greater detail later in the memo.
The other development standards are generally the same as the. previous project. There will
be enclosed parking on the first floor of the structure and three to four stories of '
condominiums aboye the parking level. Though the architectural style is different, the mass
and bulk of the building is basically the same because the footprint of the existing foundation
will not be modified. Please see the development statistics on the following page for a
detailed comparison of the standards allowed by the SDD, the development standards for the
1982 approval, and the standards associated with the proposed development.
il. BACKGROUND REGARDING DEVELOPMENT STATISTICS IN SDD #4
Special Development District #4, Cascade Viilage, is made up of four subareas. Area A is
made up of the Westin Hotel, Cascade Club, CMC, Milirace Phases i through IV, Westhaven
Condominiums, Liftside/Waterford, and Cornerstone. Area B is the Coldstream
Condominiums. Area C is made ue of the Glen Lyon duplex lots. Area D is the Glen Lyon
Office Building. Development statisiics are provided for each area. As a result, the s;+n
coverage stipulated for Area A, which is 35%, applies to approximately 18 acres. Rat --an
require the applicant to provide a site coverage analysis of approximately 18 acres, in .
past, staff has applied the development statistics to each lot individually. This has bee-
practice since approximately 1990. The projects that have been reviewed under this method
include Cornerstone, Waterford, Millrace Phase III and Millrace Phase IV. The advantage to
this method is that it allows a calculation of the development statistics on the land that is
being reviewed and does not require off-site analysis. In the previous examples, the
proposals complied with the develc; ment statistics when calculated for the individual lots and
the proposed drawings clearly conformed with the maximum development allowances
provided for in the SDD.
When the staff reviewed the develcpment standards on the individual parcel for this project,
there are three development standards which the applicant exceeds. This includes GRFA,
site coverage, and landscaping. The developer agrees that the request for additional GRFA is
above what the SDD allowed. Th.- ~equest is evaluated in greater detail in the criteria below.
However, the site coveraqe discrepancy (1.7%) and the landscaping discrepancy (2.1%) may
not actually be discrepancies, depending on the method of calculation. Staff acknowledges
that the discrepancies are not significant. Moreover, staff acknowledges that the SDD states
that site coverage and landscaping should be calculated for the entire Parcel A, of which the
Westhaven Condominiums is a small part.
Recent development approvals, specifically Millrace Phase IV, did not take advantage of all of
the available site coverage or landscaping required. Specifically, for Millrace Phase IV, 9,900
square feet of site coverage was "left on the table". Similarly, there was approximately 10,000
square feet of landscaping which was provided in excess of the minimum amount required.
These figures cover the 1.7% (or 639 square feet) of site coverage overage and the 2:1% (or
745 square feet) of landscaping deficiency. .
In conclusion, staff believes that it continues to make sense to evaluate each parcel
individually. From a.record kee~ -g poini of view, staff believes that the development
siandards for each site should be calculated based on the land under the proposed
development. This has been the method for the last five years and staff believes it is
reasonable to continue to use it. Notwithstanding the simplicity of this method, staff
acknowledges that the site coverage and landscaping discrepancies identified in the memo
should not be viewed as significant issues as. elsewhere within Area A, there is excess site
coverage and landscaping which could hypothetic?iiy be shared.

'SDD requires a setback measurement on the periphery of the SDD. Staff has measured one setback, which is the distance between
the building and the north property line. The norhern propery Irne is the only one which also is the periphery of the Area A of the SOD.

IV. SDD CRITERIA A. Desiqn comoatibilitv and sensitivitV to the immediate environment
neiqhborhood and adlacent aroperties relative to architectural desiqn, scale
buik, buildinq heiqht. buffer zones, identitv, character, visual inteqritV and
orientation.
The proposed building reflects the general architectural style of the Cascade Village
area. The building wili have a standing seam metal roof, stucco walls, and metal
railings for the balconies. The pitched roof is broken up in several different areas by
gables and hips. There are a variety of covered and open decks on both the north and
south elevations which add interest to the building. Staff has provided reductions of
the drawings at the end of the memo which show the proposed architecture, as well as
the architecture of the building approved in 1982. The 1982 approval w2s based on a
building module that was repeated five times, and the building also had ;I'at roof.
Staff believes that the current proposal incorporates much more variety and will be a
better contribution to the Cascade Village area than the 1982 design.
The applicant is proposing a buildina that is 55 feet tall. The SDD allows for a building
of this height. The previous building was proposed to be 47 feet tall. The applicant
has provided the roof elevations of the surrounding buildings and the proposed building
would be 19.3 feet lower than the Cascade Club, the same height as the CMC
Building, and 25 feet taller than the Millrace Building -to the south. It is approximately
30 feet taller than the elevation of the South Frontage Road. After walking the site,
staff believes that the height of the building will not appear to be excessive when
viewed from the South Frontage Road or the Interstate. The ridge of the proposed
structure is located 125 feet south of the Frontage Road and 55 feet from Westhaven
Drive. Staif believes that the height adjacent to Westhaven Drive may be significant;
however, it is important to keep in mind that the roof ridges comply with the height
limits set forth in the SDD. .
Of the three areas where there is a discreoancy between the proposed drawings and
the zoning standards setforth in the SDD. one is site coverage. The SDD allows 35%
site coverage or 12,959.1 square feet. The applicant is proposing.36.7% or 13,598
square feet. Due to the 1991 change in the definition of "site coverage", tliere are
three areas of roof overhang that currently count as site coverage, that would not have
counted as site coverage durina ;he 1982 review. If these three areas are excluded,
the total site coverage is reducea to 34.40/o. Staff believes that the added architectural
features of deep roof overhangs help break up the massing and add visual interest.
One of the concerns raised at the PEC worksession on February 13, 1995 was related
to the first floor of the south elevation of the building. This will be the wall enclosing
the parking structure which. at the worksession, did not have any openings in it. In the
last two weeks, the applicant has redesigned this wall creating four openings for
louvers. Staff believes that this is a step in the right direction but that there should be
two additional openings created. Staff understands that due to the foundation's
structural character. it is not possible to add additional arched openings in the areas
between spaces .:h have already been created. Instead, staff recommend.s that the
4
design include recesses of a similar shape to match the other openings. We also
recommend that the louvers be finished in a way that is aesthetically pieasing. As an
example, for the police addition, the Town finished exhaust louvers from the parking
structure with cedar boards which match the exterior finishes. Staff believes that with
these changes, the visual quality of the first floor of the building will improve.
In general, staff believes that the design compatibility and the proposed architecture
relative to the scale, design, bulk, and height of adjacent properties is reasonable. The
building does not exceed the height allowed in the SDD. According to staff, the design
of the building is a significant improvement over the design approved by the Town in
1982. The overall scale of the building is reasonable given the context of the
surrounding buildings. The one negative aspect of the proposal which staff has
identified is the height of the building relative to Westhaven Drive and Millrace Phase
III. Though the proposed structure will be higher than the Millrace Ill Building, staff
believes the amount of landscaping located between the proposed building and the
street will help buffer the proposed mass and bulk. In summary, staff believes that the
proposal fulfills the criteria in this section.
B. Uses. activitv and densitv which Drovide a compatible efficient and workable
relationshio with surroundinq uses and activitv.
The proposed use, thirty condominiums, is an appropriate proposal for this location, in
staff's opinion. We believe that adding density, in the form of restricted employee
housing, to the Cascade Village area is appropriate. Staff will discuss the details of
the employee housing under criteria D below. One of the most significant issues
involved with this proposal is the request for additional density.
The applicant is proposing 26.284 square feet of GRFA for free market dwelling units
and 7,704 square feet of GRFA for employee housing units. The total GRFA proposed
is 33,988 square feet. This is 3.784 square feet more for the free market dwelling
units and 1,304 square feet more for the employee housing units than what the SDD
allows. Staff would like to emphasize the fact that ihere are sixteen employee housing
units as part of this proposal. Of the total floor area for the project, 7,704 square feet,
or 22.7%, is dedicated for employee housing.
The SDD allows various options regarding the employee housing and the floor area
associated with the housing. It is clear that the SDD allows up to ten employee
dwelling units and 6,400 square feet of floor area without diminishing the development
potential of the free market units. However, it re uires that eight dwelling units at a
minimum of 648 square feet each (or 5184 square feet total) be included as employee
housing in the project. This allowance and requirement should be used in evaluating
the request for additional floor area for both the free market and employee housing
units.
Unrelated to employee housing, the applicant has included 4,340 square feet of floor
area in fourteen separate lock-offs. Each free market dwelling unit will have one lock-
off of approximately 310 square feet.
5
Given all the various requirements and limitations, staff believes that the density
increase is acceptable as, the overall mass and bulk are compatible with the
surrounding uses and buildings.
C. Compliance with parkinq and Icadinq r=quirements as outlined in Chapter
.18.52.
All parking and loading requirements have been met.
D. Conformity with applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan. Town
policies and Utan Desiqn Plans.
The key elements of the adopted Comprehensive Plan that pertain to this proposal
relate to employee housing. The SDD requires a minimum of eight employee housing
. units at 648 square feet each for a total of 5,184 square feet. The proposed ptans
include sixteen employee housing units ranging in size from 425 to 550 square feet for
a total c` 7,704 square feet. The previous proposal included twenty dwelling units,
ranging i; ~ size from 1,020 to 1,648 square feet, for a total of 26,680 square feet. The
employee restrictions that were to apply to the previous projecf are not clear. Although.
the Town has no documents on record, we believe that there was an agreement thai
. the employee dwelling units would be used by the employees of the Westin Hotel.
There are several goals and policies from the Land Use Plan which pertain to the
employee housing:
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment, maintaining a
balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to serve
both the visitor and the permanent resident. . 5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in
existing platted areas as appropriate and new areas where high hazards
do not exist.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made available through private
efforts assisted by limited incentives provided by the Town of Vail with
appropriate restrictions.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be preserved and
upgraded. Additional employee housing needs should be
accommodated at various sites throughout the community.
Staff believes that the way the employee housing is incorporated in this project is
consistent with the Goals and Policies of the Land Use Plan as listed above. Staff
would like to emphasize that the goals to maintain growth within existing areas, that
employee housing should be created through private efforts, and that the employee
housing base needs to be upgraded are all directly fulfilled with this proposal. Staff
believes that the Cascade Villaae area is an excellent location for sixteen employee
housing units. The units will be located on the bus line, will be within walking distance
of a ski lift to the mountain, and will also be adjacent to a major employer, the Westin
Hotel. 6
The applicant has discussed the type of deed restriction that would be required as part
of this project with staff and believes that the Type III EHU deed restriction should be
used. This is much more restrictive than the previous agreement. The Type III deed
restriction is attached at the end of this memo. Staff believes that two modifications
should be made to the deed restriction for this project. The first is that the units should
not be sold individually. The second is that the size requirement (450 square feet
minimum) should be waived in this case. Staff believes that with these two
modifications to the deed restriction, that the proposed project fulfills the goal of
providing employee housing better than the 1982 project.
At the PEC worksession, there was a significant discussion regarding the Type III deed
restriction and whether these units should be sold separately. Though staff is
recommending that they not be sold separately, several PEC members believed that
individual ownership would be reasonable. Staff has considered the input carefully and
believes that the Aspen housing example should be considered. When units are
individually bought and sold. the Aspen Housing Authority is the listing agent and
reviews all prospective purchasers to ensure that they comply with Housing Authority '
. standards. At this time, the Vail Housing Authority does not have the staff or the
authority to be the listing agent for the individual sale of units. We would recommend
that the Town move in this direction to allow the sale of these type of units; however,
since the system is not in place at this time, we would recommend that the units
continue to be held by one owner. If in the future, the Town does expand its housing
authority role, we support the idea of individual ownership, whether it be for owner
occupied units or for local business owners to be able to provide housing for their
employees.
E. Id_entification and mitiaation of natural and/or qeoloQic hazards that affect the
propertv on which the soecial development district is Qroposed
There are no hazards which effect this proposal.
F. Site plan. buildinq desion and location and open soace arovisions desiqned to
produce a functional develooment responsive and sensitive to natural features
veqetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.
Adjacent to the site to the north is a large berm. On the north side of this berm is a
scar made when the South Frontage Road was constructed. A utility pole is located at
the highest point of the berm and a second pole is located to the east at a lower
height. Staff believes that as part ot the redevelopment of this site, the applicant
should be responsible for regrading and revegetating this scarred hillside. We believe
that the applicant should lower the berm height so that its steepest grade does not
exceed 2:1. In order to do this, removing the utility poles would be required. Staff
believes the applicant should be responsible for undergrounding a stretch of utility line
from the pole adjacent to this site, to the third pole to the west and regrading and
landscaping the berm. Staff has reviewed the regrading plan submitted by the
applicants since the worksession and believes that the applicant has addressed these
issues thoroughly. Please see the attached diagram.
7
` The site plan inciudes a surface parking area for nine spaces. It is located between
the building and the Frontage Road. Due to changes in elevation and due to its
location, north of the building it will not be highly visible.
The proposed landscape plan includes five 10-foot tall spruce, six 8-foot tall spruce,
and seven 6-foot tall spruce. In addition, there are twenty-seven 2-inch caliper aspen.
Staff believes that a criticat aspect of the landscape plan is to berm uo and screen the
south elevation of the first floor of the building. The first floor of the building adjacent
to Westhaven Drive is the parking garage and will have a solid wall. It will be setback
approximately.25 feet from the edge of pavement. The first floor will be unbroken
stucco, approximately.ll feet high. Staff believes it will be imperative to provide a
.significant amount of landscaping in this area to provide an aesthetically pleasing
pedestrian level. .
It is important to note that the SDD requires 50% of the site to be landscaped. The
appficant is proposing 47.9% of the site to be landscaped. Staff believes this
difference may be justified if the improvements discussed above regarding the grading
and landscaping in the right-of-way are accomplished.
Staff believes that the slight reduction in the minimum landscaped area should be
supported. The regrading of the berm, the burying of the utility lines, and the
landscaping plan are all high quality improvements that come as a result of this
project.
G. A circulation svstem desianed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressinq on
and off-site traric circulation.
Circulation systems which are affected by this proposal include vehicles, pedestrians,
and bicycles. Concerning the vehicles, staff believes it is a straight forwarC design that.
ties into the existing street system appropriately. The pedestrian bike path crosses a
corner of the site and staff is requiring that the applicant provide an easement for this
public access. Concerning pedestrians, staff believes that the applicant should
construct a sidewalk, not only adjac_nt to this property, but also to the east. The SDD
requires a sidewalk connection irom the bikepath to the eastern edge of the property.
The applicant has indicated a willingness to construct this at the beginning of the
process. In.addition to this basic requirement, staff believes that the applicant should
also construct a sidewalk ir: ~ront of the Cascade Club which will connect this project to
the bus stop, the Westin, and the Iift service. Though not immediately adjacent to this
parcel, and ihough not required as part of the original SDD, staff believes a sidewalk in
this area is critical as a result of this project, especially given the sixteen employee
`tousing units.
H. Functional and aes*netic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and functions.
Staff believes that the landscaping plan is high quality. We believe that the number of
plants proposed is adequate as there are five 10-foot tall spruce, six 8-foot tall spruce,
and seven 6-foot tall spruce. In addition, there are twenty-seven 2-inch caliper aspen.
We believe that the quality of the design could be improved if the spruce shown "
between the foundation wall planting and Westhaven Drive were increased in height.
We would recommend that each spruce be increased by 2 feet.

help promote skier visitation during the nonpeak
periods. BsBential to this end will be Category III,
which would ensure more reliable early aad late aeasons
for the coamunity. At the eame time, TOV aud VA will
need to ensure generally that the carrying capacity of
Vail (hereinafter "the coztunity") and vail Mountain
(heseinafter "the mountain") are not exceeded during
peak demand :
TOV and VA have made notable strides in past
years to better control and manage such peak day
experiences. 'Phe actual number of peak days has
declined during recent years and the growth which hae
occurred has been contained in traditionally nonpeak
seasons. Certain programs have helped to ease the
impacts of traffic and parking (.q.g., the Holiday
Transportation and Parking Plan) or to ensure mare
comfortable skiing on the Mountain (a.g., VA's "manage
to" skier capacity program).
Building on these paet measures, TOV and VA now
wish to expand and formalize their ongoiag discussions
through a more comprehensive peak and nonpeak manaqemeat
agreement that will ensure that community carrying capacities are nct exceeded. 'I'2'bis Agreement can be
incorporated within the general "manage to" framework
that has been used by the Forest Service, TOV, aad VA as
past of VA's 1986 Special Use Permit. The Agreement caa

Because VA has kept excellent recorda regard.ing
skier visits in the past and now can track skier numbers
on a relatively instautaaeous basia (through its bar
coding system), SAOT is a convenient, usually reliable
iadicator. TOV and VA recogaize that SAOT will not
always reflect coaQmua,itY iffiPacts and thus occasionally
must be weighed with other relevant factors. For
example, if a majcr convention, a world champicnship
event, or other special event were to occur during the
nonpeak ski season,.impacte to the Town might be
signif icant in spite of light skier use on the mountain.
Additiona.lly, if visitors, residents, employees or
property owners do not carpool or rely on maes tra.neit,
traffic-asaociated problems may be severe in epite of
relatively light occupaucy rates at local lodges or
nuaibers of skiers on the mouatain. While these
analytical limitations need to be appreciated, SAOT is
still the best and ea.eiest indicator of wheu the Town
aad Mountain are nearing capacity during the ski aeason.
C. 19,900 SAOT as a Benchmark of Ca2acitv. In
the past, the figure of 19,900 SAOT has been judged to
. be a valid benchmark of carrying capacity duriug the
winter aeason. The 19,900 SAOT was analyzed and
accepted by the State ot Colorado (through the
Department of Highwaye) in 1986 and subsequently wae
supported by the IInited States Forest Service and TOV.

infrastructure are being stressed, whether the
mitigation and gsowth management measures are working,
aud whether other managemeait toole might be mcre
effective. TOV and VA recognize that thie_Agreement
must be dynamic and evolving. Both parties anticipate
. periodic modificationa to measures listed in the
Agreement, as set forth in Section VI.
F. ParticiDation By Other Parties. TOV and VA
will also seek the cooperation of other partie9 which
are partly responsible for growth-related issues (the
resart aaeociations, chambers of commerce, lodging
associations, a.nd others) in supporting the measures
ccntaiaed in these programs. Such participation could
be undertaken on a voluntary, informal basis.

measures will also be needed_to control peak and high

critical to ensuzing the quality of the Vail experience.

II. Encouraaing Vi ' atioa Durina No=eak Periods.
Starting immediately, TOV and VA will conmit to a
program to encourage visitation during underutilized
periods of the winter eeason. This effort will create
incentives for guests aad propesty owners tc viait vail
at tirnes other than the peak and high seasons (as
defined later in Sectiona IIZ and IV) and thereby ,
promvte a more balanced, healthy ecoaomy. To t2iis end,
TOV and VA will develop a compreheneive plan by no later
than June 1, 1995 that expanda upon and details the
measures set forth below ia this section
A. VA Resnona;bili~ies NonBeak Periods.
Measures to be implemented by YA to encourage visitation
during nonpeak periods, will include:
l. Intensified marketing of Vail both within
a.nd outside the Front Ra.nge.
2. Expanded international marketing.
3. Provide aelective skier promotional
incentives, including incentives to new, first-time domestic destination ekiers.
4. Bncourage lodge owners to use promotional
incentives and packaging ar=angements for inducing more
flexible lengths of etay.

2. Creating certain paxking incentives
(reduced.fees or free parking) in conjunction with VA
lift ticket incentives at certain times during nonpeak
pegbods to attract gront Range, value-conacious
destination visitore and propesty owners.
3. Working with the community at large to

III. COnLgolling the Christmas (December 26-
DQrember 31) eak Period -
TOV and VA will implement a series of mana9'ement
efforts to deal more comprehensively with the historic
peak periods during Chriatmas vacation (December 26-31).
This five-day period has the greategt chance of
,
exceeding 19,900 SAOT unleae peak management measures
are instituted. [The parties do recognize that on
occasion there can be relatively low visitation days
during the Christntias seaeon due to a variety of
factors.]
These growth management measures will follow, as
necessary, uuder a seriee of sequential tiers.
A. Tier T.
1. Starting iaQnediately, VA will implement
the following programB during the Decembes 26°
December 31 period, regardless of whether Vail Mountain

TOv•s rigosous management of public parking structuses
to maximize the number of spaces available for Vail's
guests, patrons and tr-oae without transportatiou
alternatives and to reduce unnecessary tratfic du.ring
inggess and egress houra. Fxamplee of ineasures to be
employed by TOV during the Griristmas period will include
(1) adjustment of short-term parking feea (specifically
in the morning (2) adj ua tment of pol i cies and f ee
structures to maxirnize skier visitation during the day
and maxiatize village visitation in the evening; aud

C. Tie. If the measures listed in Ties II .
abwe (1-4) still result in 19,900 SAOT being exceeded
that Christmas season, chen the Farest Service, in
conjtiauction with VA and TOV; will meet as soon as ,
practicable and implemerit the "managed to° program set
forth in VA's 1986 Special LTse Permit. In essence, this
process will require VA, TOv? and the Forest Service to
review the operational etatus of facilitiee and
sezvice8, the health, safety, and welfare of.guesta, and
other factors so that the Forest Service can determine
whether further ticket sales may proceed. VA, TOV, and
the Forest Service will also evaluate whether any
pattern is energing in skier visitation that would
result in frequent exceedences of 19,900 SAOT
neceseitating further evalua.tion of comminity impacts
aad potential adjustmenL of peak mana9ement measures.
If during the following Christmas peak period,
19,900 SAOT hae not been exceeded, then VA will return
to the Tier I managenent measures and forego the need to
use Tier II measures.

' effectuate the purpose of this Agreement aad will make
9teady progress toward providing a auperior
tra.nsportation/circulation system for vail's guests and

co¢mnunity-wide basis. ,
While vA hae been an active participaat in
employee housi.ng programs, such as $agle Bend, Ialee Creek, the Sunbird Lodge, a.nd the mortgage guarantee

zoning provisions and is in the process of developing
mortgage guarantee programs to assist employee housing,
the partiee recognize that this constitutes only a
partial solutiou toward what caa and should be
acconiplished.
VA speciEically pledges to participate with TOV
in making the.vail Cammons affordable housiug project a
reality, provided that the prvject is economi.cally
viable. VA's contribution will be on a comparable basis
to ita earlier participation at the $agle Hend project

TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department DATE: March 27, 1995
SUBJECT: A request to amend the Vail Land Use Plan from Open Space to Public - Semi .
Public to allow for the redevelopment of the Vail golf course maintenance facility,
located at 1278 Vail Valley Drive, Parcel E, Vail Valley 7th Filing.
Applicant: Vail Recreation District Planner: Russell Forrest
V. VNTRODUCT@ON .
The Vail Recreation District (V.R.D.) is requesting that the Vail Land Use Plan designation
for the golf course maintenance facility be changed from Open Space to Public - Semi
Public. This is the first step, in a three step process, that would enable the VRD to rezone
the property to the General Use (GU) District and apply for a conditional use permit to
remodel the facility. This maintenance facility is currently a legal non-conforming use on
the property, which is zoned iVatural Area Preservation (IVAP). The use of the site is not
consistent writh the zoning (the only permitted use in NAP is nature preserve) and has
existed on the site since 1966. The site is used for storage of fuel, equipment,, and
various supplies used to maintain the golf course. The maintenance operation includes
. 25 seasonal and part-time employees. The reason for this request includes the following:
1) The V.R.D. would like to make improvements to the existing building and
landscaping.
2) The Existing underground storage tanks need to be replaced writh above ground
storage tanks because of new Environmental Protection Agency and State
regulations.
3) The VRD wants to install a wash water recycling system to reuse water used in
cleaning equipment.
The parcel is approximately 2.2 acres (95,832 sq. ft.) and encompasses a portion of the
golf course, Vail Valley Drive, and the Vail golf course maintenance facility. The existing
site coverage on the property is approximately 4,538 square feet or nearly 5%of the lot
area. There is also a red avalanche hazard area south of the existing building. 1
~
The Town of Vail owns the property, which was recently acquired from the Forest Service
in 1994. As part of the open space zoning changes that Town staff is working on, this
site was identified as needing to be rezoned to General Use, which would allow for a golf
course maintenance facility as a conditional use.
This application will focus only on the criteria for changing the Land Use Plan. If the
proposed amendment to theLland UsePplan is approved, then the VRD could proceed
through the process to rezone the property to General Use. In the General Use District,
the PEC is given the responsiblity of deterimining the development standards for the
property. This will be done as a third step, if and when the VRD formally submits an
application for a conditional use permit, which would consider site and landscape design:
II. EXPLAPiATION OF LAND USE PLAN CATEGORIES
The V.R.D. is proposing to amend the Vail Land Use Plan from Open Space (OS) to
Public - Semi Public (P.P.). The definitions for OS and P.P. are described below:
Ooen Space: Passive recreation areas such as greenbelts, stream corridors, and
drainage ways are the types of areas in this category. Hillside slopes which were
classified as undevelopable due to high hazards and slopes over 40% are also. included
within this area. These hillside areas would still be allowed types of development
permitted by existing zoning such as one unit per 35 acres, for areas in agricultural
zoning. Also permitted would be institutional/public uses.
Public/Semi Public: The Public and Semi-Public category includes schools, post office,
water and sewer service, storage facilities, cemeteries, municipal facilities, and other
public institutions, which are located throughout the community to serve the needs of the
residents.
III. CRITERIA.FOR AMENDING THE LAND USE PLAN:
Criteria for amending the Land Use have been established on page 62 of the Land Use
Plan, which states: "To change the Plan...it will be the responsibility of the applicant to clearly demonstrate
how conditions have changed since the Plan was adopted, how the Plan was in error or
how the addition, deletion or change to the Plan is in concert with the Plan in general."
1) How have conditions changed since the Plan was adopted?
The Plan was adopted in 1986 and the maintenance facility was built in 1966. The
purpose of this amendment is to address the legal nonconforming use on the property so
that needed improvements can be made to the facility.
2
0
~
2) . bOHH 9S $he PlaP1 IP9 ePPOP?
The Land Use Plan (on page 63) states that " the boundaries established on the Plan
Map are general in nature and were not determined based on a parcei by parcel property
boundaries." This uvould explain hovu the Plan which vuas prepared in 1986, overlooked
the fact that a maintenance facility was located on this site. Therefore, it appears that the
Land Use Plan designation for this location was done incorrectly due to the scale of the
analysis. 3) Hoew is Yhe adda4ion, deletion, mr change to the Plan in concert wi4h the Plara
in general?
This proposed amendment would be in concert with the Plan's goals. A goal of the Land
Use Plan on page 6 is to protect the quality of the environment. A major reason for the
V.R.D.'s request is to make irnprovements to fuel storage which will protect water quality
and prevent soil contamination. Another goal of the plan states: "The quality of
development should be maintained and upgraded whenever possible." Currently the
V.R.D. can do basic maintenance on its' existing facility as a nonconforming use but can
not make significant improvements. Also, several goals state that the Town should
improve summer recreational opportunities. The golf course maintenance facility is a
critical element in- the operation of the Vail Golf Course, which is a valuable recreational
draw to the community in the summer.
OV. STAFF RECOMMENDAT'BON:
Staff recommends approval of the proposed change to the Vail Land Use Plan, for the
Vail golf course maintenance facility parcel from Open Space to Public & Semi-Public.
This land use designation would be consistent with the use of the site and allow the
V.R.D. to make needed improvements to the facility vuhich would allowr them to improve
the aesthetics of the facility and protect the environment through improved containment of
. fuel. To amend the Vail Land Use Plan, the PEC is requested to make a
recommendation to the Town Council who will ultimately pass a Resolution which would
amend the Land Use Plan designation for this property.

EXPRESSIPVG COiVCERN ABO19T "TAlCINGS°" LE2a1SLAV'ION IN GENERAL
AND URG6NG ELEC~~D REPRESENTA7'IVES TO OPPOSE SB 136, HB 1171
AND SBM@lLAR LEGISLAT90N.
WHEREAS, both the Colorado General Assembly and the U.S. Congress are considering
legislation which may dramatically expand the circumstances under which some property owners
can claim compensation from the government to the extent government regulations affect their
property values; and
WHEREAS, all government entities, including municipalities, are already constrained by
the U.S. and Colorado constitutions from taking private property for public use without just
compensation; and
WHEREAS, the courts have long held that government regulations which go "too far" may
constitute a taking of private property and recent decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court have
provided additional protection under the constitution to private property rights; and
WHEREAS, municipalities, in their traditional role as tand use regulators, have a special
understanding of the fact that virtually any regulation has both positive and negative effects on
a myriad of property values, including those associated with the regulated property, neighboring
properties, and the community at large; and
WHEREAS, so called "takings" legislation tends to bestow new compensation rights upon
some property owners to the potential detriment of other property owners, while undermining the
effectiveness of even the most reasonable regulations which are designed to protect the public
health, safety and general vuelfare; and
WHEREAS, takings legislation promises to substantially increase the cost of government
by mandating redundant, bureaucratic review processes upon government agencies and inviting
a flood of new claims for compensation which have no basis whatsoever under the constitution;
and
WHEREAS, even takings legislation which does not presently include within its scope
actions by municipalities is nevertheless objectionable because:
A) Proponents of such legislation have vowed, once the precedent is established, to
include municipalities in future takings legislation;
B) Any legislative redefinition of what constitutes a regulatory taking of private property
may in the future be imputed by the courts to municipalities;
Resolution No. 10, Series of 1995
-D
C) Municipalities work in partnership with state and federal agencies to protect the
public health, safety and general wrelfare in local communities, and any unreasonable impairment
of the ability of those agencies to carry out their regulatory function will inure to the detriment of
citizens living vvithin municipalities.
NOVV, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Town Council of the Town of Vail, Colorado:
1. The Town Council opposes any and all legislation by the Colorado General
Assembly and the U.S. congress which purports to codify constitutional "takings" principles to the
extent that such legislation redefines what a regulatory taking is and the types of claims fior which
compensation must be paid, favors the interests of some property owners over others, increases
the cost of government, or impairs the effectiveness of reasonable laws and regulations which
protect the public health, safety and general welfare.
2. The Town Council respectfully urges its elected representatives to vote against SB
136, HB 1171 and any similar legislation.
3. The Town Clerk is hereby directed to fonward this resolution to the Town's elected
representatives in the Colorado General Assembly and the U.S. Congress and to otherwise
disseminate copies of this resolution to the public at large as appropriate.
4. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its passage.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Robert W. McLaurin (11-~
Town Manager ~
DATE: March 31, 1995
SUBJECT: Town IVianager's Report
Capital Proiects
During my performance review, we had an extensive discussion regarding the Towr's capital
construction program for the coming summer. For your information I have included a memo
which outlines the major projects which we hope to construct between now and next fall. As we
discussed, this schedule is aggressive; however, after discussions with the Public Vi/orks
Department, we believe we can complete the projects outlined in the memo. Although we have
been focused on the Roundabout project, we have two significant projects which wiil be bid in the
very near future. Specifically, we will open bids on the Matterhorn street project on April 14 and
for the golf course street project on April 26. The Covered Bridge project has been designed,
contract documents signed, and the contractor is awaiting the end of the season before beginning
construction. The contractor will install a temporary bridge around the middle of April and the old
covered bridge will be removed immediately following the closure of the mountain. As indicated
in the memo, this project is estimated to be completed by Memorial Day.
Vail Pass Chain Up Area
I spoke to Bob Moston of the Colorado Department of Transportation yesterday ana he indicates
CDOT is willing to relocate the chain up area. The department anticipates moving this fiacility
approximately .5 of a mile west. The new chain up area would be located adjacent to the Vail
Golf Course. I spoke to representatives of the VRD and they do not have a problem with this
location. The closest residence to this new area will be approximately 1/3 of a mile aw«y. We
will provide some in kind support to relocate this facility later this summer.
Gvpsum Bus Route
The route betvveen Gypsum and Vail is scheduled to cease on April 16. There is a great deal of
interest in the lower valley to continue this service throughout the year. Eagie County has
committed to some level of funding and is looking to other governmental entities anc riders to
supplement the funding. I would ask that the Council consider a supplemental appropriation to
help keep this bus service operating through the off season and the summer. This would take
a supplemental appropriation from the general fund. I believe this is a critical aspect af our
regional transportation system and is essential to keep operational if we are to be successful in
implementing a formal regional transportation authority. There is a possibility that we will once
again receive a refund from the Leadville/Avon route and these funds could be utilized to fund
the Gypsum route through the remainder of the year. I will have a recommendation at Tuesday's
meeting.
Emplovee Opinion Survev
The 1995 budget included funding for an employee opinion survey. The purpose of th9s survey
is to assess how TOV employees feel about a variety of issues with respect to the Town. The
format is comparable to the one utilized in 1992, and we are once again utilizing the services of
Mountain States Employers' Council to administer the survey and tabulate the results. The
survey is scheduled to be administered on April 12 and 13. I will provide you with a copy of the

VVe are in the process of applying to the Federal Transit Authority for $1 million for the purchase
of new buses. These funds were earmarked by the U.S. Congress; however, we sti91 need to
submit a formal application. VVe have completed a draft of the grant application and it has been
reviewed by officials at FTA. A part of the application process is a public hearing. We have
scheduled this hearing for April 13, 1995. The purpose of this hearing is to take public comment
on this grant. Although this is a TOV public hearing, it is not necessary for the Council to attend
this meeting since Mike Rose will conduct the hearing. Of course you are welcome ta attend.
Once the hearing is complete, we will submit the formal application to the FTA.
Communitv Survev
The community survey was mailed this week. VVe are requesting responses by April 17th. This
will give us time to have some of the preliminary data for the Council retreat.

Dear Bob:
This letter is in regards to the parking situation at the Booth Falls trailhead. I am sure you are aware
that this is one of the most popular day hikes for recreationists in the Vail Valley during the summer.
The parking at this trailhead was designed to hold 10-12 cars. This would allow for 20-24 people to
utilize the Booth Fall trail at one time and fits within our National Forest Guidelines for the Wilderness.
The problem is that on any summer weekend, there may be as many as 20 cars parked along the
road in addition to the 12 cars parked at the trailhead.
The Eagles Nest Wilderness is a valuable resource for citizens of the Town of Vail, as well as, visitors
to the area. I need your assistance to help protect the Booth Falls area in the following manner:
1. Sign and enforce the "No Street Parking" regulation along the Booth Falls Road. If enforce-
ment was emphasized on summer weekends, it would be extremely helpful.
2. In any publications or advertisements that the Town may sponsor, please do not include the
Booth Falls Trails. It receives more than enough use, without additional marketing.
I have enclosed our documentation of use during 1994 at the Booth Falls trail to assist you in
evaluating this request. Please contact Beth Boyst, Wilderness Coordinator, if you need additional
information regarding this request.

Mr. James RW Daniell

San Antonio, TX 78218
Dear Mr. Daniell,
I would like to respond to your concerns regarding the frequency of
the Golfcourse route. The decision to adjust the non-peak service
level in this neighborhood was quite justified.
The bus frequency on the Golfcourse route was reduced due to low
ridership numbers during non-peak periods. Our staff analyzed
ridership patterns over the last eight years, which showed that
64,000 of the total annual ridership of 74,000 was carried during
two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. This
translated into a cost of 29 cents per ride at peak and $5.03 per
ride at non-peak. Based on this information, peak service (morning
and afternoon) remained unchanaed at every 30 minutes and non-peak
service was adjusted to once per hour. Overall ridership numbers
do not support every 15 minute service.
In the past few years, we have been experiencing a"leveling" of
sales tax revenue while demamd for services has continued to grow.
Departments are expected to continually analyze their programs,
such as the Golf Course route, to ensure that the tax dollar is
being spent wisely, efficiently, and for the good of the whole
communi ty .
Sincerely,
G' r' \

VADL POUCE DEPARTMENT ACT9VATES NE11i4 POLICIES TO IMPROi/E L.OCAL
ACCESS DURINC PASS CLOSURES (Vail)--The Vail Police Department is activating new traffic control guidelines to
improve local access fio East Vail when Vail Pass is closed: The plan includes closing
I-70 eastbound traffic at the West Vail and fViain Vail interchanges to avoid stacking on
I-70 and the East Vail frontage roads. Previously, traffic was diverted at the East Vail
interchange, causing long delays for local traffic attempting to access East Vail. The
new plan also stages tractor-trailer trucks along the interstate to avoid frontage road
congestion problems.
Vail Police Chief PCen Hughey describes the plan as a short-term solution until a more
permanent plan can be adopted for the 1995-96 ski season. "Over the last couple of
years, we've seen an increase in the number of I-70 closures, particularly the
eastbound lanes," said Hughey. "Because of substantial increases in the volume of
traffic, the congestion problems associated with the interstate closures are demanding
more attention from our department," he said. Hughey said the interim plan will
continue through the remainder.of. the ski season. Then, a long-term plan will be
developed involving the Colorado Department of Transportation, Colorado State Patrol,

Pass Closures/Add 1
Eagle County Sheriff's Office and the Vail Police Department.
The new traffic control plan has already been implemented twice this month,
according to Hughey. He says the changes have noticeably improved the department's
ability to control traffic and parking, while directing I-70 travelers to gas, food and other
amenities not easily found in East Vail.
Other improvements to the traffic control plan include road closure signs posted at
the Village and Lionshead parking structures; measures to prohibit eastbound traffic
from parking along the North Frontage Road from East Vail to Aspen Lane (these
people will be directed onto westbound I-70 at East Vail, as well as vehicles parked
facing north, between the eastbound on ramp and the westbound off ramp); increased
radio communication by Vail patrol officers with the Colorado State Patrol; use of a
Town of Vail snowplow to clear the emergency turnaround between Main Vail and East
Vail to allow eastbound traffic to travel.west; and more communication between the Vail
Dispatch Center and the local radio stations for improved dissemination of information.
"We feel. that this is a successful first step in our effort to develop a multi-agency
response to ease an unpleasant experience for our citizens and guests," said Hughey.
Hughey said the town is also working with a group headed by Tim Cochrane of the
Eagle County Red Cross to develop a plan to assist stranded travelers. The plan
attempts to increase the frequency and availability of information and provides for the
coordination of food and emergency shelters.
For more information, contact Hughey at 479-2210.

--Roundabout Discussion
The Council agreed to postpone action on a bid award for the Niain Vail roundabout
project until the April 4 work session. Public Works Director Larry Grafel said the delay
is needed to allow time to continue negotiations with the sole bidder, B&B Construction.
To date, about $400,000 has been shaved from the original bid of $2.44 million due to
pricing adjustments by the subcontractors and adjustment for utility work, according to
Grafel. A completion date for the project is also under review. Originally, the project
was to be substantially complete by July 1. But Grafel said the bid may be reduced if
the town altowed completion of the roadwork on the south side by July 4, with the north
side improvements completed in August. Grafel yesterday also presented traffic count
statistics which were 4aken during several peak days in December 1994. The traffic
counts illustra4ed the level of increased capacity a roundabout would provide at the
interchange. VVarren iViiller, an opponent of the project, attended the meeting and
reiterated his concerns about the practicality of roundabouts. In response, Town
iVianager Bob McLaurin said the roundabouts are the most cost-effective solution to the
probtem. Councilman Jan Strauch said the roundabouts are a great solution, but he
suggested the town consider re-bidding the project or extending the project over two
seasons rather than 4rying to "fast-track" the construction this spring. Those
alternatives will be discussed in more detail at the April 4 work session. For more
information, contact Larry Grafel at 479-2173.

Council Highlights/Add 1
--Business License Fee Discussion
David Barrie Gould, owner of a hair salon in the Gateway Building, appeared before the
Council to ask for reconsideration of a town policy which requires him to pay the full
amount for a 1994 business license fee even though his business was only open for 10
days in 1994. Barrie wondered why his $325 fee wasn't prorated. Revenues from
business license fee.s are used for tourism marketing and.promotion through the Vail
Valley Marketing Board. Since 1988, the Council has rejected requests for prorated
fees or other considerations. But this time, the Council voted 3 to 2(Strauch and
Steinberg against) to direct staff to prepare a change to the business license fee
ordinance which would allow businesses opening after September 1 to be eligible for a
$100 transfer fee instead of the full business lieense fee if the business replaced an
existing business that had already paid the full license fee. The Council's suggested
changes, however, would not be retroactive to help those, including Barrie, who have
been impacted previously. For more information, contact Finance. Director Steve
Thompson, at 479-2116 or Sales Tax Administrator Sally Lorton at 479-2125.
--biscussion of Lease Policy and Tent Sales
The Council directed staff to prepare a modification to the town's special events
ordinance by restricting those eligible for a special events permit to non-profit
organizations. The changes are intended to eliminate the opportunity for commercial
vendors to sell merchandise through a special event license, as was the case during
the September 1994 Vail Associates tent sale.
Also yesterday, the Council reviewed a list of tenant leases within the Vail
Transportation Center and Lionshead parking structure and approved the concept of
negotiating leases on an individual, market rate basis. For more information, contact
Town Attorney Tom Moorhead at 479-2107.
-4th Quarter Financial Report
In reviewing the fourth quarter financial report for 1994, Finance Director Steve
Thompson said the town ended the year in good financial condition. For example, the
fund balance within the town's genecal fund was increased by $400,000, despite taking
$737,000 out of the general fund to pay a portion of the $2.5 million Trapp.er's Run
purchase. Also, general revenues were $775,140 over projections and expenditures
were $800,000 under budget. Sales tax revenue increased 5 percent and Real Estate
Transfer Tax collections were the highest on record with $2.2 million collected, an .
increase of 14 percent over. 1993 collections. For more details, contact Thompson at
479-2116.
--Chuck Anderson Youth Award
Council members Paul Johnston and Jan Strauch said discussions were continuing
with school administrators to create a new scholarship program to replace the Chuck
Anderson award.

,4t the request of Town Attorney Tom fVioorhead, the Council voted 5-0 to extend 1994

recommendations 4o the Council. Moorhead organized the committee to review the
noise issue after the Towrn Council began consideration of a ban on amplified sound.
Since then, the committee has conducted a noise survey to assist in preparing
recommendations to the Council. A sound engineer consultant also has been hired.
Moorhead said the survey indicated no need for separate noise regulations in the
Village versus Lionshead; the need for better enforcement of the town's noise
ordinance;.and better control of late-night, early morning pedestrian circulation. For a
copy of the survey or a listing of committee members, contact iVioorhead at 479-2107.
--Information Update
The Council voted 5-0 to authorize an $8,240 expenditure to help fund replacement of
the 10-year-old carpet in the iVlunicipal Building.
The Council agreed to host an April 1 dinner for a six-member fiourism delegation from
fVieribel and Courchevel France.
Police Chief Ken Hughey said the department has initiated new traffic control measures
to improve local access during pass closures. The plan includes closing I-70
eastbound traffic at the 1Nest Vail and Main Vail interchanges to avoid stacking on I-70
and the East Vail frontage roads. For-more information, contact Hughey at 479-2209.
The Council authorized Town Attorney Tom Moorhead to prepare a resolution in
opposition of "takings" legislation under consideration by Congress and the Colorado
legislature. The resolution will be considered at the April 4 evening meeting. For
details, contact Moorhead at 479-2107.
--Council Reports
Tom Steinberg reminded Council members that scholarships are available for the Aprif
26 regional growth conference for those unable to pay the.$20 registration fee. The
Rlorthwest Colorado Council of Governments is coordinating the conference. Steinberg
said one of the break-out discussions could include the Town of Vail-Vail Associates
managed growth agreement.
Jan Strauch said he attended a recent Colorado Department of Transportation-
sponsored meeting on potential rail corridors, including a Leadville to Glenwood route.
He said the state is asking local governments to help pay for a$250,000 feasibility
study.
Strauch also noted he had read about a new technology for street art for buses and
wrondered if the town might be interested in using the new technology for its new buses.

RE: Cont.inued Funding for the G~:psum-to-Vail Exp ss
Dear Officials and Committee Members:
The Eagle County Board of County Commissioners considered the issue of continued
funding for the Gypsum-to-Vail Express at its regular meeting of March 27, 1995. The initial
funding provided by Eagle County for the inaugural season was on a trial basis, and did not
envision year-round bus service. The Board was encouraged by the increased ridership and
wants to ensure that the bus route has every opportunity to succeed. Consequently, the Board
agrees to provide one-third of the funding necessary to provide bus service till mid-November
up front. This will provide at least a window of opportunity to arrange for additional funding
sources.

I am hopeful that the problems associated with funding the Gypsum-to-Vail Express can
be overcome, and look forward to another success in meeting the transportation needs of Eagle
County.

Re: Town of Vail - Roundabout Signing
Dear,Mr. McLaurin:
The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) supports the
Town of Vail project to replace the four way stop at the Main
Vail I-70 interchange with a modern roundabout. Your recent
request that CDOT assist with funding of the signing
necessary for this project is well- timed. Region 3 has
budgeted FY 1996 state funds for a regionwide TSM (traffic
systems management) project and can cominit up to $200,000 for
signing the Vail roundabout. The CDOT budgeted funds are
available-after July 1, 1995.
CDOT will initiate an interagency agreement with the Town of
Vail to reimburse the Town up to $200,000 for the cost of
roundabout signing. The agreement will specify that the Town
prepare the plans for this work in accordance to State and
Federal requirements and contract for the construction. Upon
completion of the signing work CDOT would reimburse the Town
for the cost of this work not to exceed $200,000.
The roundabout project is an important improvement to our
transportation system and CDOT is pleased to participate in a
portion of its funding.
Very truly yours,
R. P. Moston

Transportation. Region 3

~erspectiove 1995
1994 and 1995 have been characterized by rapid change, 4% population growth in 1994 in the region and a re-
newed awareness of growth issues, formation of two new human service restructuring planning committees, the Ru-
ral Resort Region, the Yampa River Basin Partner5hip, and the Colorado Association of Ski Towns Symposium on
Growth. It seemed that as change and growth pressures mounted so did efforts to find ways to address them.
Part of our challenge in 1995 will be to find the.common ground among these initiatives. In addition we want to
identify how we can continuously improve while remaining true to our mission statement, without duplicating serv-
ices or stressing our resources and while continuing to make a difference for our membership. As a result of this as-
sessment, we have analyzed our areas of expertise and share with you NWCCOG's 1995 agenda.

NWCCOG has a twenty two year history of developing intergovernmental funding formulas and delivery of effective
regional services that are beyond the scope of any one local govemment. As a regional planning and service deliv-
ery agency, we are able to identify the need for shared technical expertise. Frequently we are able to create grant ~
proposals that address shared needs and provide local solutions.

oEDI/C.4770N AND DEVELOPIVIENTb
Regionalism is a developmental process. It is a process of learning to listen to your neighbors perspective when
it differs from your own. It respects local interests while it values shared interests and solutions. It is a creative
and dynamic process. NWCCOG's role is to achieve the delicate balance between locat govemment control and
the need to address common regional concerns. We strengthen and support local govemments' find the com-
mon ground for cooperation and act as a, catalyst for education, capacity building and problem solving.
°1ZEGIOIVAL ADVOCACYo
~ Within our five areas of programmatic expertise NWCCOG is the regional authority. We review state funding
formulas for equability and advise the state on programmatic issues: NWCCOG is frequently the first agency to
i identify common trends, needs and concerns and to suggest intergovernmental solutions.
As an experienced regional agency, NWCCOG has much to offer during this period of growth and change. As
we see it, our role is to look for opportunities for collaboration among the various solution oriented groups. Our
interest is to provide flexibility in regional relationships AND to re-align regions into co-terminus groupings that
I enhance effectiveness and focus.
~
~
~
~ AGENDA :
Is there a need to establish a cooperative agenda amongthe many emerging re-
~ gional initiatives? To NWCCOG this seems apparent especially during a time of
' politically conservative fiscal policy. It is our goal to prevent counterproductive competition, avoid duplication
~ and demonstrate cost-effectiveness. By way of that coordination, we offer the following agenda for 1995.
I
i
Re,-ional Data
~ The Rural Resort Regiorr and the northwest human service restructuring committees each need regional data to
I compfete their plans. Resources expended to accomplish this purpose may be spent more effectively through a
i contract with NWCCOG to produce needed data for these planning efforts. Centralization of this function
strengthens capacity and is cost effective.
i
i ~ GroivtJt Coorrtination
; NWCCOG's Community Development Department is working with several Grand County communities to de-
~ velop their capacity to coordinate growth. The lessons learned in one valley frequently apply to other communi-
; ties. We hope to share this expertise throughout our region. We invite members to learn about the Fraser Valley
~ Growth Coordination Initiative to see if this model is of value to your valley's growth coordination efforts.

1995 Agenda
~ Northwest Colorado Citizens Meeting on (;powth - Anra126th Vaid
NWCCOG staff is taking a lead role in coordinating the 13 counties and the many regional initiatives within the
13 counties to provide advice on growth issues. Though the 13 county region may not carry on into the future,
the need to learn from each others successes, find common ground and cooperate will continue. NWCCOG
suggests that this is one of the areas where our expertise is most valuable as we honor the local and sub-regional I
planning efforts, create opportunities for networking and relationship building, support the development of skill
and knowledge and develop capacity on the local level to solve problems.
~ Raional Environmental Plannan~ ~
NWCCOG is in the process of developing eight watershed management committees to advise on issues of water ~
quality. Regional land use planning is well suited to watersheds, as is open space preservation and a myriad of I
environmental concerns that do not recogniZe jurisdictional boundaries. NWCCOG may be the appropriate
agency to provide this expertise.

RECE89lED APR 4
TO: All C.A.S.T. IVlembers
F1ZOliR: Rachel Richards
DATE: 1Vlarch 30, 1995
RE: Meeting Schedule Thru September and
Upcoming Symposium Dates
1Vleeting Schedule
The Executive Board would like to recommend that we do not hold an April
meeiing this year because of having haa meetings now two months in a row
(F'ebruary C'rrowth Summit, Grand Junction and March Legislative Luncheon,
Denver.)
VVe would like to hold a May meeting on F'riday moming,lVlay 19th in Glenwood
Springs - with the usual dinner the night before, Thursday Nlay 18th. T'he agenda
of this meeting will include setting up a work schedule to prepare for the
September g.,egislative T'our (proposed by C.S.C.U.S.A. in lYlarch and approved by
C.A.S.T.) and reaching closure on where to go with our priority items coming out
of the C'rrowth Summit.
We propose holding the usual short meeting in June at CliZL and then the August
meeting in Grand I,ake. gn the past we have set the annual schedule in June at
C1VII., but in order to block rooms in the busy August season, the Executive Board
has O.K.'d the location and date for the August meeting. T'he agenda for the
August meeting will focus on being prepared for the Legislative Tour in
September. The Thursday night dinner will be August 17th and the meeting will
be 9 am-12 noon on k'riday, August 18th.
F'inal dates for the September I,egislative Tour, to be held in Aspen/Snowmass, are
still to be determined but probably the second or third weekend; we hope to
finalize the date at the May meeting with C.S.C.U.S.A.
~
L
Reminder on Symposium Dates - You should have received mailings from these
organizations.
1. Please note the Pinchot Institute Boom in li/lountain Living Symposium -
June 7-10, Keystone, Colorado. It is extremely important that C.A.S.T.
communities are well represented at this event. The intention as I
understand it is for the Forest Service to look at better ways of dealing with
expansion and off-site impacts. For information and reservations phone
(303) 355-5047 or fax (303) 377-1179.
2. Governor YZomer's Growth Symposium Follow-Up Date Is: Wednesday,
Apri126, 1995 in Vail. This meeting will be of particular importance for the
fO110W1ng CO1ll1t1eS: Cirand, Clear Creek, Giipin, Summit, I,ake, Eagie,
- Pitkin, Ga.rfield, Rio Blanco, Moffat, Itoutt and Jackson. iZomer's
symposium is a good opportunity to lobby for both greater local control of
issues and increased state funding for our Transportation/Housing needs.
For information and reservation phone (303) 468-0295 x 113.
3. Also, the Community T1-ust is hosting a two-day iZound Table lYlay 9-10 in
Glenwood Springs with a truly excellent panel of specialists. For
information ca11945-5912.
I know we are seeing a lot of summits and symposiums right now - but as the
growth pressures and impacts continue to build - it is vital that we are active in
educating ourselves and staying in touch with plans being made at a regional level.
If your usual C.A.S.T. designee or Town 1Vlanager cannot attend please get other
council members or department head to attend. Our participation and education
this spring will certainly enhance our effectiveness with the Legislative Tour this
September.
Thanks.

Vail, CO 81657
Dear 1VTr. Williams: This letter is in confirmation of our phone conversation of March 30, 1995; to inform
you that CDOT will permanently discontinue use of the widened chain-up station on east
bound I-70 adjacent to your subdivision as of the end of the current snow season. A
widened pavement will be constructed during the 1995 summer months further west, adjacent
to the golf course, for future use as a chain-up area.
Upon compledon of the current snow season the chain-up signs will be removed and the
existing widened area blocked off to prevent use as a parking area. I regret that the chain-up
area which was provided as a safety measure resulted in inconvenience to you and your
neighbors.

Very truly yours,
