MEMORANDUM
TO: Vail Town Council
FR: Bob McLaurin ~
RE: 1996 Council Retreat
DT: February 23, 1996
The 1996 Town Council Retreat will be held in the Conference Room at the Charter at
Beaver Creek. The Retreat will begin at 8:00 am and will conclude no later than 4:00
pm. As we have discussed, Dick Bowers, the City flNanager of Scottsdale, AZ will
facilitate this meeting. Dick has done work with our organization previously and is
generally familiar vuith the TOV organization and community. In order for Dick to gain an understanding of your viewrs on the issues facing the
community we have scheduled a dinner with the Council on Monday night. VVe will ,
meet at Montauks at 8:00. It is my understanding that Kevin is working and will join us
when he gets off later that evening. There is no agenda.for this session. As indicated,
it will be an opportunity for the Council to meet with Dick Bowers and to informally
discuss issues that you hope to address at the retreat. The purpose of the retreat is to give the Town Council an opportunity to articulate its
views about community vision and organizational mission. It also gives the Council an
opportunity to set goals and establish direction for the coming two years. The goals
and critical strategies which will b.e developed on Tuesday form the foundation for the .
work program for the coming year and establish a framework for the 1997 Town
budget. An agenda for this meeting is attached to this memorandum. I have also attached a
_ number of documents which from last years retreat. _
I would like to open the retreat by reviewing several internal issues relevant to our
organization. This portion of the retreat will take only approximately 15 minutes and
will give the Council an understanding of our internal philosophy and operations.
The second agenda involves a discussion of the Council's vision for the Vail
Community. For you information, I have enclosed a copy of the Statement of Vision
from last year. This should be the starting point for this discussion. The third agenda
item involves a discussion of the Town of Mission Statement. The current Mission
Statement is attached for your review and consideration.
i have also enclosed a copy of the Critical Strategies which formulated by the Town
Council in 1995. For you information, I have enclosed report which outlines our
progress in accomplishing these Strategies. Please note that the update was taken
from a memorandum to the previous Council and was written as part of my performance
evaluation for 1995.
In.order to assist the Council to focus their discussion for the 1996 Critical Strategies
and Goals, I have enclosed a document that outlines the s+gnificant issues facing our
community. For each of the topics, I have generated a list of questions and outlined
pertinent issues. I have also, where appropriate, highlighted the next steps for this
issue. Finally, we have enclosed a background document for the housing issues and
governing philosophy. As indicate, this outline is intended to help focus your
discussion. They will hopefully be of assistance as you discuss these issues.

lI8]E: Performance Review
DTe IVovember 10, 1995
As the current Council's tenure winds down, it is time for the Council to evaluate my
performance for the past yeaz. I have enclosed a copy of the form used last year. If you are
interested in using another form, please let me know, and I will provide it for you.
. At my evaluation last February, the Council identified two areas where I should place extra
effort. These included strengthening my financial knowledge and shaping my focus. During the
past year I have worked to strengthen and improve these areas. To improve my knowledge of
finance, I successfully attended an Accounting I class from Colorado 1Vlountain College, and I
am currently enrolled in Accounting R. I have worked to improve my focus and time
management by spending additional time planning. This was typically done by coming in early
when no one else was in the office so I could plan, schedule, and strategize without interruptions.
In addition to focusing on the areas discussed previously, I.have also worked to help accomplish
the "Critical Strategies" identified by the Council last April. The following identifies the various tasks accomplished in pursuit of each of the Town of Vail Critical Strategies and Objectives. It
should be noted that the activities and tasks identified below are part of the overall TOV work
program. While I had personal responsibility for many of these activities, many of them were _ impl'emented by many other staff inembers throughout the organization. They remain a part of
the overall work program for which I am responsible. It should also be noted that some of these
tasks support more than one of the Critical Strategies. When this occurs, the task or activity is
mentioned under the appropriate Strategy.
IIIIIIIljDII'oVe $p9e J[SII'oce53 ~f pIlIlbD9c llR11VOlVeH9be&bt. Improving the process of public participation was
one of the Council's most important strategies. While we have worked diligently on this issue,
much work remains to be done. Despite significant public participation, there is much cynicism
remaining in some parts of the community. Tasks accomplished in pursuit of this strategy
include the following:

Og~~r Activnties
In addition to the previously identified activities, we have continued to work to improve the
culture and environment of the Town organization. I believe we have made significant progress
was made in improving the organizational culture of the TOV. This was reflected in the recent
employee survey which was conducted in April. As you may recall, scores on this survey
improved significantly since the last survey.
Becaase my salary is frozen like the other TOV employees, there is no need to discuss
compensation during this review. However there are two items in my employment agreement
that I wish to discuss with you.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve our community and the TOV organization. I look .
forward to meeting with you and discussing these issues.
HOUSIlVG BACKGROUND PAPER
FOR COUNCIL GOAL-SETTNG AND CRITICAL STRATEGIES RETREAT
February 27, 1996
A Housing Division was created within the Department of Community Development
effective Janaury 1, 1996 to focus the Town's efforts to create locals housing. At this time,
StafF seeks both philosophical and specific direction from Council in order to tailor our work
program for 1996. Time li.mitations and the demands of other issues will prevent a complete
discussion of the housing effort at the February 27 retreat. The following issues constitute the
fiamework upon which the additional discussion can build.
A. What role does the Town of Vail wish to play in providing locaLs housing?
* Developer
* Facilitator
* Let market decide
* Other .
B. What should be our focus in 1996 housing in Vail or anywhere in the valley?
C. If our role is to facilitate the provision of locals housing, one of the best ways to
do that is to provide the land. Land costs are a substantial part of the reason locals
housing has not been built in the past.
(1) Should we consider using TOV-owned la.nd that is currenfly zoned open
space or which was purchased with RETT funds?
(2) Should we acquire private lands which have existing development rights?
(3) Should we acquire existing units and impose deed restrictions?
(4) How would we fund acquisitions? . (5) Are we willing to use condemnation powers to acquire land or units?
(6) If we acquire and either sell or ground-lease to developers for locals
-housing; what return do we want (e.g., recoup all costs of acquisition,
recoup purchase price only, make a profit and use the profit for other
housing efforts, etc.)? This information is necessary for developers to prepare
their pro formas to determine if a project in Vail is feasible.
A listing of additional housing issues for discussion by the Council at a subsequent meeting
(SOON!) is attached hereto for your review.

TOWN OF VAIL
GOVERNING PHILOSPHY FOR DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
We want to make things work. We want to encourage renewal in our commercial areas.
We want to be more user friendly. To those ends: We provide clear written standards which new developments and redevelopments are
required to meet. We do not impose requirements which are not included in the written
standards. This approach provides greater certainty for applicants and clearly conveys the mutual
. responsibilities of staff and each applicant. This approach also allows TOV departments to assist
each other with pre-application coordination, submittal requirements, development review and
compliance. •
Where alternative methods of compliance with a particular requirement are available and
feasible, the alternatives are clearly stated and preferences noted if such preferences exist. Staff
will review situations which fall outside of the standards and authorized alternatives on a case-by-
case basis, but such occasions will be minimized by the thorough nature of the regulations and
shall be the exception and not the rule.
Variances from our standards are seldom granted and appeals of decisions of staff and the
Town's boards seldom result in overturning the original decision because we either support our
written standards or we revise our standards to reflect current reality.
All of our development standards are consolidated in order to convey a comprehensive
picture of our intent and requirements.
, We enforce our regulations in a fair and consistent manner.
This governing philosophy reflects the following desired outcomes:
_ * More user friendly -
* Clear and complete information given
and standards enunciated; no surprizes
* Clear expectations set and responsibilities assigned
* Acceptable alternatives articulated
* Respect for the standards (from Council, boards and staff)
is a given
* Comprehensive approach
* Fairness and consistency

OTHER HOUSING ISSUES
FOR COUNCIL GOAL-SETTIIVG AIVD CRITICAL STRATEGIC PLANNIIVG
The following issues constitute a continuation of the discusion begun at the Council's Goal
Setting and Critical Strategies Retreat onFebruary 27,1996. Council direction on the
following issues will allow Staff to finalize its work program for 1996.
1. COlVIPLIAIVCE/ EIVFORCEIVIEIVT re: EXISTING EHLJs?
2. ROLE OF HOUSIIVG AUTHORITY?
. 3. ROLE OF PLA,NNING AND EIVVIROIVMEIVTAL CO1VB/[ISSIOIV?
4. SPECIFIC PROPERTIES
(SEE separate sheet marked "PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL"]
Page 3 of 4
D. STAFF-RECONIlViENDED CRITICAL STRATEGIES FOR 1996:
1. Maintain existing rental housing base in Vail.
2. Identify and commit to a site or sites in Vail to accommodate 50 - 75 units of
rental housing for locals.
3. Prepare to develop the maximum feasible number of units of seasonal housing at
the Public Works site; identify and commit to another site or sites within Vail in
addition to the Public Works site if we are unable to find a developer who will
develop the site OR if economies of scale or partnerships present an opportunity to
develop additional seasonal housing on another site or sites sixnultaneously with
development on the Public Works site.
These three critical strategies are, of course, in addition to the task of overseeing the
construction and sale of the 53 Vail Commons units.

Mr. M. Ross Boyle
2211 Vermont Court
Vail, CO 81657
Dear Ross:
I wanted to get back with you in writing in regard to numerous questions you had posed during our
meeting on January 16th. It was a pleasure for the stafF to sit down with you and your neighbors to
discuss issues relevant to a possible annexation of the Highland Meadows area.
What follows will be an attempt, department by department, to address specific questions that were
asked by your group.
PUBLIC WORKS
1. Acceptance of Streets. Attached to this letter is a memo from James Weber, Engineer, dated
January 23, 1996, regarding the status of streets and roads in Highland Meadows. In order to bring
the existing streets to acceptable Town of Vail standards, current estimated costs are in the price
range of $2.5 million.
Bob McLaurin, the Town Manager, and I have scheduled lunch and a tour of this area on Friday,
February 16th with Jim Hartman, the County Administrator. As I had indicated to you, Ross, James
Johnson, at a recent joint session with the Town Council, indicated there was a possibility of some
cost sharing to upgrade the roads in your subdivision to facilitate the annexation. This is but a first
step.
Although special assessments for road construction (i.e., special improvement districts) had been
used in the early days of Vail, a conscious decision was made by the Town Council in the middle
80's to fund street repair for areas currently within Town boundaries out of our capital
projects/general fund. We currently have a long range plan for upgrading and maintaining streets
within the Town of Vail. It is unclear at this point what position Highland Meadows would assume
RECYCLED PAPER
C3
in that listing and this would be determined at a later time. It is feasible the Town could require
private roads to be brought to Town standards through a special improvement district as a part of the
annexation agreement.
To give you an idea of the aggressive nature of our street reconstruction plans and capital street
maintenance funding, I would also supply the following information: ~
1996 $ 605,000 Golf Course and Matterhorn road construction completion
485,000 Capital street maintenance
875,000 Streetscape (Seibert Circle -$450,000; Dobson/Library Plaza -
$300,000; E. Lionshead Bus Stop - $125,000)
1997 $2,500,000 Lionsridge reconstruction
270,000 Capital street maintenance
Streetscape (none currently planned and budgeted)
1998 $2,200,000 Vail Valley Drive reconstruction
175,000 Capital street maintenance .
2,075,000 Streetscape (West Meadow Drive -$1,675,000; Landscape Gore
Creek Drive @ Lodge at Vail -$100,000; Repair/overlay projects -
$300,000)
1999 $2,400,000 East VaiUWest
475,000 Capital street maintenance
Streetscape (none currently planned and budgeted)
Beyond 1999 $2,200,000 East Vail/East
$2,100,000 West Vail Overlay
Glen Lyon Overlay
_ Streetscape
2. Bus Service. Bus service currently is accessed off West Gore Creek Drive. There are no
plans to expand this service, and in fact, the Town has reduced service town wide over the past
couple of years.
3. Snow Plowing. Our priorities are the same as the County's. Primary arteries are cleared
first, which would mean streets in Highland Meadows would come on a third priority basis.
4. General Maintenance/Street Cleaning. It is our general practice to sweep roadways within
the Town twice a year. From the above figures''I outlined, the Town remains vigorous in protecting
and maintaining its street investments.
2
~ .
FIRE .
1. lFire Insurance. We are uncertain if your fire insurance rates would change. The Fire Chief
tells me that a response from our fire department will occur only if our firefighters are not
responding to a call within the Town of Vail limits. It is our recommendation you check directly
with your insurance company because there are a variety of policies and issues that vary from
insurance carriers, i.e., how far the insured's house is from a fire hydrant, as an example.
2. lEmea-gency itesponse. Our current policy is to respond to EMS/medical calls just as we do
for fires - the order in which we receive them. It is important to note, however, within the Town of
Vail we are currently having discussions about charge backs for EMS responses and our ability to
tie those into the billing fee structure for the special ambulance district.
FINANCE
1. An estimate from the County on assessed valuation of $3,267,120.00 for the two filings
within Highland Meadows shows a possible annual property tax revenue of $15,192.00.
LEGAL/COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
1. Town of Vail ordinances and zoning supersede subdivision covenants. A specific
question was asked about GRFA and it is possible the Council would entertain discussion about this
issue and could include an exemption/grand fathering for the subdivision through an annexation
agreement. Discussions re: issues specific to these two filings would require discussion and hashing
out prior to annexation.
2. Three Mile Annexation Plan. Section 31-12-105 of the Colorado Revised Statutes places
limitations upon a municipality regarding annexations. In addition to prohibiting the right of a city
or town to annex mare than three miles beyond its current boundary line in any given year, it also
requires that_ a city or town have an annexation master plan for the three mile area prior to the
completion of any annexation. While the three mile plan is similar to a city or town's master plan,
it is more extensive in requiring the location of future utilities, playgrounds and open spaces. Such
plan must take into account all land that is functionally related to the growth of the city or town, not
just land located within three miles of the municipalities boundary.
The purpose of the three mile plan is to force cities to engage in a planning process prior to
annexation. It is also required that the plan be updated annually. In addition to such planning being
a good process, the failure to have a plan prior to the completion of an annexation is an invitation
to litigation. The existence of a bona fide plan will increase the likelihood of general acceptance and
will limit the opportunity for invalidating the annexation.
A plain reading of the section dealing with the three mile plan, seems to evidence an intent by the
legislature that this apply to all municipalities. We have not researched the possibility of being
eYCluded from such requirement due to being a Home Rule Municipality. It would be a good idea
to engage in the planning process regardless of whether or not such would be a requirement on Home
3
. . . i
Rule municipalities.
3. Percentage of Land/Homeowners in the area requesting to be annexed needed to sign
the petition.
A. Petition for Annexation. The landowners of more than fifty percent of an area eligible ~
for annexation, excluding streets and alleys, may petition for annexation. If the Town Council finds
that the petition is substantially in compliance with the petition requirements, notice of the hearing
must be published and a public hearing held at which any person may attain and present evidence
and testimony. If, at the hearing, the Tovvn Council determines that the general annexation criteria
has been met, it may but it is not required, to annex the territory.
B. Petition for Annexation Election. The second method of voluntary annexation is a
petition for election. This may be submitted by electors who are residents and landowners in the
area eligible for annexation. The petition for anne;cation election must be signed by at least 75
electors, or 10% of said electors, whichever is less, except that signatures of only 40 electors are
required if the area is located in the county of 25,000 inhabitants or less. In Eagle County, we are
coming close to the figure of 25,000 inhabitants with approximately 22,000.
If the petition for annexation election is in compliance, the Town Council may pass a resolution of
intent to annex the land proposed for annexation subject to the public notice and hearing procedure,
and also subject to an annexation election. The ability of the Town to decide to move forward with
an annexation once property is eligible implies, of course, that the Town has the authority and
discretion to choose not to annex.
While the procedures for a petition for annexation and a petition for annexation election are
alternative to each other, a petition for annexation election takes precedence over an annexation
petition involving the same territory, if the petition for annexation election is filed at least 10 days
prior to the hearing day set for the annexation petition itself.
4. Can the area be annexed one filnng at a time? Series annexations are permitted pursuant
to the Colorado Revised Statutes. Severa.l annexations, taken one after the other, on the same date
are specifically authorized by Section 31-12-104(1)(a) C.R.S.
There is a limitation on extending a municipal boundary more than three miles in any direction from
any point of such municipality boundary in any one year. The three mile limit may be exceeded if such limit would have the effect of dividing a parcel of property held in identical ownership if at
least 50% of the property is within the three mile limit. In such event, the entire property held in
identical ownership may be annexed in any one year without regard to such mileage limitation.
Ross, I hope the information in this letter will be helpful in assisting you and your neighbors as you
go through the process of deciding whether a reannexation to the Town makes sense. Should you

TO: Larry Grafel, Director of Public Works
. FROM: James Weber, Engineer
DATE: January 23, 1996 .
SUBJECT: H(GHLAND MEADOWS Highland Meadows Subdivision is located south of Gore Creek on a north facing slope
at the west end of town. The subdivision is comprised of two (2) filings and a
resubdivision of several lots in the second filing, the roads within the subdivision
include a portion of Alpine Drive, Meadow Brook Drive, Sequoia Trail, Tahoe Drive,
Vermont Court and Vermont Road, which were constructed in the late 1970s.
Several geotechnical studies have been completed on the subdivision and my review of
two (2) reports from 1982 and 1983 indicate concerns with the stability of soifs within
the development. The site has slopes that vary from 15% to 28%, evidence of several
springs throughout the site and evidence of a large slide in the past. Due to the
northern exposure this site will experience a greater snow pack, slower snow meft and
therefore a generally increased surface and ground water flow.
The original subdivision roadways were designed to include surface and subsurface
drainage systems. The surface systems were collection ditches along the road edges,
which are visible, and the subsurface systems were slotted pipes, but the extent to
which the subsurface systems were installed is in questions due to the lack of
information on the as-built drawings. One of the major reasons for the instability of the
soils is the amount of subsurface water. Most of the subsurface water that is removed
through si!bsurface systems is often reintroduced into the ground when the water is
discharged into the roadway drainage ditches. Another contributing factor is that the
overall site drainage had been altered to discharge a majority of the runoff at a location
which had a relativity sma!l watershed.
The infrastructure is currentJy maintained by Eagle County Bridge and Roads
Department. Their proposed maintenance schedule for the summer of 1996 will
inciude pavement repair around the existing manholes, to repair settling, and slope
stabilization on private property, to protect the roadway. There is a pavement
management program in use by the County but there is no information on the roads
within this development. School bus service to this area is accomplished by a pickup
point on West Gore Creek Drive, no'buses travel the subdivision roads.
The Engineering Dept. for Eagle County is not aware of any problem areas within the
development that will require reconstruction of the infrastructure and the information
avai(able to them indicated that al( of the subsurface drainage systems were installed.
~ M1^ •
Prior to any site development, the county will require a geotechnical study on the lot in
question and approval of all discharge points for site subsurface discharge.
Based on the information provided within the geotechnical studies, county information,
infrastructure age and site visits, safety, drainage, pavement structure, and geometric
improvements may be required. VUith an upgrade and extension to the existing surface
and subsurface drainage systems and the installation of safety devices the overall .
impact on the roadway surface and pavement structure would lean toward a total
reconstruction of the roadway. The costs for this work, using a per foot price of $300,
(based on 1995 construction costs) for 22' width will be as follovvs:
STREET NAME LENGTH PRICE
Alpine Drive 2250 LF $675,000
Meadow Brook Drive 670 LF .$209 ,000
Sequoia Trail 330 LF .$99,000
Tahoe Drive 1250 LF $375,000
Vermont Court 450 LF $135,000
Vermont Road $945.000
TOTAL 8100LF $2,430,000
This cost would just be limited to the roadway itself, additional costs may be related to
the need for retaining walls and easements or right-of-way.

Ms. Katie Laubengayer
Vail Public Library
292 West Meadow Drive
Vail, Colorado 81657
Dear Ms. Katie Laubengayer, I received a letter from you dated December 11, 1995 (copy enclosed). I wonder if you really
• thought about what you were writing before you actually wrote the letter. I also wonder how
many other individuals like myself were so unfortunate to warrant a letter similar to mine.
I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. You see I am truly a resident of the Vail Valley.
I was born and raised here, in fact, so was my mother. My grandparents have been here since
1937. I graduated from Battle Mountain High School and went on the Loretto Heights College
in Denver. I decided that I did not like college and quit. However, I have now discovered the
importance of a quality education. I have a wonderful job in the valley, where I am a member of
the management team. I have been pui•suing my degree from Colorado Mountain College for
two years now, and will continue on to complete my bachelors degree with Regis College. My
husband has been a resident of Vail and of the Vail Valley for thirteen years. As you can see my
family and I have lived in the Vail Valley for the majority of our lives.
Many of my instructors have brought us, during class time, to the Vail Public Library, to gather
references for research papers. This was the reason I had at least eight books checked out and
incurred a fine (I think you said 20 days late), for one book, when in fact all eight books were
checked out and returned together. I questioned why not the 20 day fine on all eight books.
When I originally talked to you on the telephone, you were very condescending; I however did
not let that bother me. Now I have received this letter and I must demand an apology.
- You stated that the Vail Public Library was not my home library, and that as a resident of
Edwards, my tax dollars are going to the Eagle Valley Library District. Your statement is
partially correct. My property tax dollars do go to the Eagle Valley Library District, however, my
sales tax dollars for purchases in the Towzi of Vail go to your district. I know that the Town of
Vail, for 1995, certified a tax levy of 4.690 mills, which yielded them revenue of $1,674,309.00.
I know that the library receives a portion of these property tax revenues, they rely on sales tax
revenue, and bequests from generous individuals.
0
~
Please note that I underlined the word public. It is my understanding that the library is public
and it is my impression that the library encourages visitors to the Vail Valley to visit their
facility. May I point out that these visitors do not pay property tax to the Vail Public Library
district, as well as many residents of the Town of Vail. Many residents of the Town of Vail do
not actually own their units, thus, they do not pay any property tax.
I have used the Eagle Valley Library in Avon, and it is indeed beautiful. However, since they are
relatively new, they do not have the reference base that the Vail Public Library does. As a
student, I need the large reference selection. If it is not acceptable for students of Colorado
Mountain College to visit the library, please notify Jim Olson or Kay Saulsberry. I am sure that
they do not appreciate their students being harassed.
If you do not want to welcome down valley residents, visitors to the Vail Valley, and non
- property owners but residents of Vail, at the Vail Public Library, please make that fact public. I
am sure that the Town of Vail does not want to see this, as they will see a greater decline in their
sales tax revenue.
Sincerely,
Veronica Nelson

Dear Ms. Nelson:
Recently you came into the Libraiy and were concerned ilbOLlC a fine on your library card. You
stated you had rettu-ned the item with the fine the sanie time you returned other items to the Safeway book
drop. As these other items did not show any related fines, you felt the fine on your card must be an error.
In light of the situation, we have cleared the fine from yow- card.
You zilso told the desk clerk you hZive had many Problems wilh thc Safeway book cirop in the past,

--Interviews for Board & Commission Appointments
V1/ith 41 applicants stepping forward to volunteer for 11 openings on five town-
appointed boards and commissions, Council members said they were overwhelmed by
the record response. iViayor Bob Armour expressed the Council's appreciation and
encouraged the applicants to stay involved in the town's activities in the future.
(Please see the evening briefs for appointments to the Planning and Environmental
Commission, Design Review Board, Housing Authority, Art in Public Places and Vail
Valley iViarketing Board.)
--Ten Year Financiai Plan tViodel
Towrn Manager Bob McLaurin and Finance Director Steve Thompson presented a 10-
year financial forecast that shows an $8.9 million budget deficit by the year 2005 under
what they called a"do nothing" scenario. The forecast tracks current trends with expenses out pacing sales tax revenues. The model also was used to illustrate how
the town's debt payments over the next 10 years wi11 directly compete with the ability to
fund capital improvements, such as street reconstruction or creation of a new fire
station in West Vail. fVicLaurin said he was prepared to work with the s4afF, Council and
community to pr.epare a strategic plan to address the town's finances within the next
120 days. The plan would contain four elements: how to increase selected revenues;
how to decrease expenses, including reductions in services; whether the town should
consider refinancing its debt; and whether the town should consider adjusting ifs sales
tax split between the general fund (currently 65 percent) and capital (currently 35
percent). Although McLaurin said the town is in good financial shape today due to its
substantial fund balances, he said it would be irresponsible not to make adjustments
now to ensure the towrn's financial health for the future. McLaurin predicted the
process will be difficult as there will be no "sacred cows" in reducing expenditures.
Yesterday's presentation was in preparation for an all-day Council retreat on Feb. 27.

Council Highlights/Add 1
--Continued Discussion of Lottery Criteria
The Council clarified a list of staff questions to help shape the lottery for the Vail
Commons units. The criteria will include: priority for those working in Vail (paycheck
from a Vail business license holder) with a slight reduction in priority for those working
outside Vail; residency anywhere within the valley will result in the same lottery
standing; consecutive years of employment within Vail's boundaries will be given higher
weight, while there will be some merit for consecutive years worked elsewhere in the
valley; current homeowners who do not choose to deed restrict their homes will NOT be
eligible to participate in the lottery; existing homeowners willing to deed restrict their
existing residences will receive bonus points so long as the sale of the existing unit is
completed prior to or simultaneously with the closing of the purchase of the Vail
Commons unit; business owners purchasing units to rent to their employees are to be
included in the lottery only if there are no other purchasers prepared to be owner-
occupants; two-bedroom units will be available to any lottery applicant while the three-
bedroom units will be set aside for households of three or more peopte; financial
prequalification will be required prior to applying for the lottery; and applicants will be
allowed to participate in all four lotteries (there will be a separate lottery for each of the
four housing types). Now that the Council has approved a structure for the lottery
(modified point allocation with basic eligibility) and clarified values, town staff will
present a recommended point system at the March 5 evening meeting. For more
information contact Andy Knudtsen in the Community Development Department at 479-
2138.
- --Information Update
During an information update on the Vail Commons development, Town Attorney Tom
Moorhead asked for Council clarification regarding a voluntary offer by City Market to
exclude a liquor store as a possible retail tenant on the property. Moorhead said
although the offer was not solicited by the town when it was made several months ago,
City Market had asked for clarification from the town. A majority of the Council .
members (Michael Jewett left the room due to his involvement on the Commons Sense
for the Commons Petitione'rs' Comniittee) defered the retail mix decision-making
authority to City Market.
--Council Reporfs Paul Johnston said the Eagle Valley Leadership Coalition is working to determine what
role it will play in the affordable housing issue, such as fact gathering and
communication. In another report, Johnston-said the Eagle_ County Recreation
Authority had been spending most of its time on issues related to the equestrian center.
Currently, the Berry Creek Fifth property is facing a$15,000 tax bill, due to a ruling by
the County Assessor.
Sybill Navas said a delegation from Mt. Buller, Australia, is in the valley this week
exploring the possibility of a sister city relationship.

Dear Friends,
This is simply to say thanks for considering me for a continuing post on the
Planning and Environmental Commission. Though I was a bit surprised that I was
not appointed, you have shown a pragmatic new direction in government and new
faces on commissions are properly indicative of that.
In any case, I will continue my work with Russ Forrest on shaping and
administering the Partnership for Environmental Education Programs, in which the
Town of Vail has a significant social investment, and Trees for Vail, of which I
am chairman, where the Town of Vail has a wonderful social and monetary
investment.
If you will allow me, I would like to reiterate and slightly expand the remarks
which I made on Tuesday 20 February, as I think they are important for the
future of Vail, and were the reason for my continuing interest in the PEC:
I believe that the Town of Vail must look long range and strategically at where
it needs to be five or ten years from now, and avoid being overly influenced by
people or groups which have only short term profit in mind. Part of this
strategy is the aggressive provision of in-town employee housing, open space,
control of unused homes and excessive development, and a philosophical and
technical consideration of how the zoning code will best benefit Vail and its
citizens, long term. I believe well-thought growth is healthy and needed, yet
maxed-out growth is stifling and will destroy Vail and its precarious environment.
Unfortunately the line between the two is tenuous.
So I'm still here, environmenta.lly, and I'll be back when there is an opening on
PEC, for I have an investment of much of my adult life and soul in Vail, and in
those of us who have chosen to live here.
Best Regards,
Jeff Bowen

RE: Ordinance amendment as per PEC Agenda 12/26/1996
The Homeowners Association wishes to have the opportunity to respond in writing to
agenda items numbered 1, 6, and 7.
' We are in receipt of the various official "staff' proposals that would change several sec-
tions of the zoning code. The magnitude and context of many of these proposals are of sufficient
scope and import that they need thoughtful and timely deliberation by the diverse and numerous
interests in the community who will be impacted by the proposed amendments.
Publication of official reports concerning these items were not available on a basis suffi-
cient to allow us thoughtful consideration of their implications or effects. A copy of the memoran-
dum to the DRB requesting certain amendments were not available to us prior to or at their
meeting. Over recent weeks the Homeowners Association has requested, on numerous occa-
sions, to discuss the specific of these proposals with the planning staff. To date, we have in-
formed that we have been denied permission to discuss these matters with the appropriate
technical staff. Over the past three weeks, meeting dates were scheduled with both technical and
supervisory personal to discuss the foregoing matters. Regrettably, to date no substantive discus-
sions have taken place. We are under the impression that professional courtesies are not being
extended, followed or respected with regards to these matters.
Matters of import requires that the Association's Executive Director refer matters such as
the aforementioned agenda items to the Homeowners Association Board of Directors for review
and consideration. On behalf of the Board of Directors, it is requested that the Association be al-
lowed the courtesy of addressing the Planning and Environmental Commission in writing, on a
timely basis, with regards to these matters The interests of the Association and its membership
will be directly affected by these proposed amendments.
The Homeowners Association asks for a written response to our request. Thank you for
your consideration.

• Pedestrian safety is an issue.
• Need to take a long-range view of solution due to increased traffic at the
intersection. It would be irresponsible to take a short-term view.
Problem statement sliould include the followina:
There are traffic delays at the West Vail Interchange resulting in:
• safety issues (emergency response, pedestrian, accidents, lines of site).
• people feel at risk.
• too many cars for design of intersection.
Draft Prob/em Statement (to be tested with citizens~
At the West Vail Interchange, drivers currently experience significant congestion and
delays on both the North and South Frontage roads at lunch time and in the evening. ~
On the eastbound off-ramp, there are large backups of cars onto the interstate which
: creates a safety problem with stopped cars on a high speed highway. Also, there are
poor lines of sight underneath the overpass which cause drivers to take unnecessary
risks when making routine turns to enter traffic. This inefficient intersection also has a
negative affect and impact on the multitude of business interests in the commercial
areas. There is a large pedestrian usage in this area with no safe walkway either along
the.roadways or underneath the overpass. Aesthetically, this intersection does not
reflect the convenient, east-to-use, world class entry this community expects if it is to
remain competitive in the resort market.
Because of these conflicts with traffic movements and the negative experiences
encountered by every driver who uses this intersection, the inherent safety problems
associated with a poorly designed intersection, and the less than quality.entry into the
community, the`Town of Vail would be irresponsible if we did not take the lead in
correcting these problems.
Givens (to be approved by Vail Town Council)
1. Design solutions will not compromise safety and must accommodate long-term
traffic volume and safety needs.
2. The Town of Vail will be the lead agency in project initiation; in accordance with the Town Charter, the Town Council will make the final decision on the project
and budget. Approval from the County, State and Federal levels is also
necessary.
3. The Town will seek the maximum contributions from all funding sources.
Depending on the amount of funding received for this project, other capital
projects may be delayed.
a
e

4. The project will be designed to professional standards and regulatory
requirements. 5. All ideas for solutions vuilt be considered.
6. The Town Council and staff will strongly consider recurring preferences
expressed by all people involved.
7. Access in Vllest Vail from the Interstate will be maintained.
Expectations for the Public
The TOV is asking people to:
0 Assist in defining the problems created by traffic delays at the West Vail
Interchange.
0 Assist in establishing the criteria by which alternative solutions will be judges
and ranking the most important.
0 Respond to alternative solutions developed by TOV staff; each alternative will
include an explanation of pluses and minuses and how it addresses the most
important criteria.
0 Review the preliminary plan before it is forwarded to the Town Council to make
sure it accurately reflects the criteria and community discussion.
Interests/Issues Grid .
,4bout 100 interests (groups, businesses, agencies, departments, individuals, strongest
skeptics) have been identified.
Problem-Solving Sequence
1. Check problem, givens and process (open, honest and fair).
2. Announcement of "new way of doing business."
3. Problem definition. Do you experience difficulty at the intersection? How often? Have you changed your travel patterns? Why and how? Do you feel
safe.there? VVhat would you like to see? Do you take risks? Is there a problem? VVhat does it look like? VVhen would you like it fixed? How does the .
