MEMOR.ANDUM To: Vail Town Council Via: Bob McLauren, Town Manager From: Chief Greg Morrison Lt. Jeff Layman Date: 09/17/96 Re: Vail Village parking and delivery zones I. Description and background For at least eight years, a loading zone has been located along Gore Creek Drive in front of the shops of the Lodge promenade. Since 1993, this zone has been operational from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., seven days a week. The merchants in this area have grown tired of this arrangement, citing the difficulty to carry on with trucks parked in front of their businesses. They requested that a new delivery scheme be implemented. At the same time, the lodging community is concerned about what they see as an increase in early morning activity creating noise. Trash and snow removal operations, as well as delivery trucks are generaZly identified as causing the most disruption. Last spring, Town of Vail staff inembers met with The Lodge at Vail representatives, at their request, to discuss the problem. On June 11, 1996, the town council hosted an open forum on the same issue. Meetings with the Vail Restaurant Association, the Village Merchants Association, and the East Vail Homeowners Association were also held. As a result of these meetings, three approaches were identified. In the ensuing weeks, all three approaches were tried. Option One had delivery vehicles parked in the middle of Gore Creek Drive, Optipn Two shifted them to Willow Bridge Rd. to do all unloading and Plan Three allowed them to park on Gore Creek Drive from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., with alternative outlying loading zones available from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. II. Review criteria for this request The review criteria for requests of this nature are many and varied. The Vail town council has several sources of information to consider in evaluating this request. r--t--- A. Vail Village Master Plan 3.0 Goal To recognize as a top priority the enhancement of the walking experience throughout the Village. 3.2 Objective Minimize the amount of vehicular traffic in the Village to the greatest extent possible. 3.2.1 Policy Vehicular traffic wiil be eliminated or reduced to absolutely minimal necessary levels in the pedestrianized areas of the Village. Action Step #8 Improve tra£fic control systems effectiveness and appearance. Action Step #9 Monitor time zoning and revise as possible. Continue to explore alternative service/delivery mechanisms... 6.0 To insure the continued improvement of the vital operational elements of the Village. B. Vail Transportation Master Plan (page 10) Goals and Objectives - Pedestrianization should be emphasized as a priority. Ideally, therefore, all trucks and service vehicles should be eliminated from the Village core. - If this is not feasible, the number and size of trucks in the Village core should be reduced. - Gore Creek Drive (between Checkpoint Charlie and Mill Creek) and Bridge St. should not carry any vehicular traffic. - Design solutions need to be sensitive to surrounding neighborhoods and the natural environment. - Demand estimates indicate that approximately 25 to 30 delivery and service parking spaces are required to accommodate the existinq delivery demand during the peak season. In the future, approxima.tely 35 to 40 delivery and services spaces will be needed. These new loading zones should be located in response to both environmental constraints as well as pedestrian and retail space needs. III. A. Findings Based on the experimental use of the three delivery approaches, Plan Three generated the most favorable ratings and observations. Additional Plan Three testing has been conducted for the past four weeks. This plan involves: 1. Allowing loading/unloading and delivery parking in outlying loadinq zones from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. This is not a change from the current system. 2. No delivery parking be allowed anywhere prior to 6:00 a.m. This is a change in the current practice. 3. Creating a three hour window during which time delivery parking is allowed in many places on Gore Creek Drive. This permits delivery drivers to park closer to their destinations for a limited time, thus encouraging them to make one trip to the Villaqe and to clear the Village before prime pedestrian times. It is hoped that this change will create a situation where trucks are not parked in front of stores, shops, and restaurants when they are open. 4. Encouraging business owners to make arrangements with suppliers that allow shipments to be received during those three hours of operation. This will reduce the numbers of trucks making multiple visits to the Village. 5. Allowing trash operations to commence in the Village after 7:00 a.m. 6. No modifications to snow removal operations. B. Inpu t f rom the communi ty Generally, comments about this system have been favorable. Lodge merchants enjoy not having the trucks parked in front of their shops, most food delivery drivers like the shorter delivery walks (between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m.) and guests will appreciate the fact that truck traffic on Gore Creek Drive is restricted to that three hour block of time. Concerns have been expressed by some delivery companies who; in the winter, will not be able to arrive in the Village until after noon, and from some lodging hosts who feel that 7:00 a.m. is too early to allow trucks into the Village. Finally, the East Village Homeowners Association, through Jim Lamont, has expressed their concerns about loading/unloading activities in the four spaces located along Gore Creek Dr. adjacent to the P3 and J lot. IV. Staff recommendations The Vail Police Department recommends the following: A. That the experimental approach (Plan Three) now being used be made permanent, to include all of the conditions found under III.A. of this memorandum. B. That the loading time allowed in Vail Village be restricted to three consecutive hours between 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. l. Impacts a. 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. will be acceptable to food delivery companies and shop owners, but less desirable to some lodges. b. 8:00 to 11:00 will be better for the lodges, but will make food deliveries more difficult. It will also be less palatable for shop owners who open for business at 10:00 a.m. c. Neither plan will satisfy some delivery companies that roll into Vail after 11:00 a.m. Keep in mind, however, that these companies will be able to park in outlying loading zones from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. 7 d. This plan impacts snow removal operations. Occasionally, the parking spaces near Checkpoint Charlie are utilized for short term snow storage. Public Works is evaluating impacts and alternatives. e. This plan fails to meet the recommended number of loading/unloading spaces as specified in the Vail Transportation Master Plan (25-40 spaces) by having only about 21 total spaces in outlyinq loading zones, including the four spaces below P3 and J. This is offset, however, by the fact that during the three hours in the morning, delivering can be accomplished nearly anywhere on Gore Creek Drive. C. That no passenger cars be allowed to park between Checkpoint Charlie and the International Bridge at any time. i~• F . x • C~tu: p`n ~ n.~.~.~' Q~~__~JU VAIL TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN Prepared for. Town of Vail 75 South Fronrage Road Vail, CO 81657 Prepared by: Felsburg Holt & Ullevig 5299 DTC Boulevard, Suite 400 Englewood, Colorado 80111 . (303) 721-1440 In Association with TDA Colorado, Inc. FHU Reference No. 89-091 November 25, 1991 ~ i.. t . RECOh1N1ENDATIONS/PRIORITIES The Vail Village goods delivery plan is illustrated in Figure 6, and consisu of a modified decentralized delivery strategy. Elements of the plan are as follows; prioritized by short-term and long-term actions. Short Term o Total delivery and service parking spaces needed in the short-term is 25 to 30 spaces. o The Bridge Street loading zone, ihe Mill Creek loading zone on Hanson Ranch Road behind the Red Lion, and Gore Creek Drive loading zone near the Lodge at Vail would be removed. o Loading zones south of Willow Bridge Road and along the north side of the Mill Creek Court Buitding woutd be retained for detivery purposes (approzimately 15 spaces including 1 handicapped parking space). The area south of Willow Bridge Road may need to be ezpanded to handle trucks. o Additional loading areas would be provided along Gore Creek Drive next to the Christiania lot (approaimately 4 spaces including 2 handicapped parking spaces along Hanson Ranch Road just south of the Christiania lot (approzimately 6 spaces) and on Willow Bridge Road north of the bridge (6 spaces) and near Check Point Charlie (4 spaces). o Restrictions on vehicle. movement into the core area apply to all vehicle types except for service emergencies and service functions permiited by the Police Department. o Existing time restrictions on delivery vehicle access to the core would be retained, for the purpose of maintaining a vehicle free environment. Enforcement of these restrictions needs to eztend over the entire time period to insure vehicles are removed from the core area at the designated times. o Immediate actions should be taken to resolve land ownership issues (portions of Parcel J and K of Vail Village Filing #5) associated with the Christiania lot/Vail Associates and the Town of Yail as it pertains to Town right-of-way and its current use. Resolution of this issue with the right for a loading dock to be included with any development of this site will allow the long-term sotution to be implemented more quickly if the short-term sotution provides minimal benefits relative to the environmental and cost consequences. o All private service access areas would be retained. Approzimately 29 spaces (including 3 handicapped spaces) can be provided under this alternative to serve the short-range demand. The implementation of this short-term recommendation does not prohibit the future implementation of a centralized delivery strategy. Because of the relatively low cost of implementing most of the short-term alternatives, it is recommended to implement all of the short-term changes as soon as possible. LonQ Term o Total delivery and service parking spaces needed in the long-term is 35 to 40 spaces. o The Christiania ]ot should be retained for a potential goods delivery loading area providing 17 spaces. The potential of converting it to a ceatralized loading facility to transfer cargo to smaller delivery vehicles should aLso be retained as a future option. This removes all on-street truck loading within the East Village area. 24 F E l S 8 U R G H 0 L T a U L L E V I G I O ~ A~s~ do w O, ~ Retaln Exlating Loading Zonev Converf 15 Mlnute • . ~ ~ ~ m Parking Zonea lo f 5 ~ Delivery Loding Zones 4 7 \ so O7 ~ m ~ ~ 8 RNaIn Exlitlnp ~ 1 O v ~ 2 3 6 Loading Ione (1 N.C.

Further public input wp11 be obtained to identify the potential available spaces. Until such a facility can be implemented 14 spaces on Willow Bridge Road souch of Gore Creelc and approAimately 6 spaces on Willow Bridge Road north of Gore Creek will provide a total of 37 spaces (including 3 handicapped spaces) to serve long-term needs. As a simple, two_level parking/loading area, ihe long-tezm alternative has a planning level cost of approximately $750,000 to $850,000 plus land acquisition and landscaping, and provides approzimate- ly 17 truck loading spaces. As a centralized delivery facility including warehousing facilities and a small vehicle fleet, the planning level costs are estimated to be $1.4 to $1.7 million plus land acquisicion and landscaping. 26 , October 25, 1991 Mayor Kent Rose Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Dear Mayor and Town Councit Members: As property owners in the East Village neighborhood, we join with the East Village Homeowners Association to bring our concerns to the attention of the Town of Vail. Specifically, our concerns focus on three propositions raised in the proposed Town of Vail Master Transportation Plan. Our first concern is the proposition to locate a truck parking lot on both sides of Hanson Ranch Road over Mill Creek, on stream tract land. We find the paving over of Mill Creek extremely objectionable and environmentally insensitive. We believe that the natural assets of Mill Creek should be further enhanced not diminished. Our second concern is the proposal to locate a Truck Docking Facility on the P-3 and J sites. It is our commonly held view that the location of such a facility on these sites will be detrimental to the well being of propeRy owners in our neighborhood. We do not believe that locating such a facility on the P-3 and J sites will give relief to the objectionable truck noise and congestion that presently exists in our area. Our third concern is the location and/or expansion of on-street truck loading zones in the neighborhood, it is inappropriate for a residential neighborhood, that includes first class hotel accommodations in its precinct, to be a truck teeming area for the adjacent commercial areas of Vail Village. We urge that the Town Council give detailed and comprehensive study to other sites and methods of providing for the delivery of goods to the adjacent commercial area. We jointiy request that these three propositions be stricken from the Master Transportation Plan and other public policy documents. Best wishes, Joy R. Hillard obert W.

Specifically, our concerns focus on three propositions raised in the proposed Town of Vail Master Transportation Plan. Our first concern is the proposition to locate a truck parking lot on both sides of Hanson Ranch Road over Mitl Creek, on stream tract land. We find the paving over of Mill Creek extremely objectionable and environmentally insensitive. We believe that the natural assels of Mill Creek should be further enhanced not diminished. Our second concern is the proposal to locate a Truck Docking Facility on the P-3 and J sites. It is our commonly held view that the location of such a facility on these sites will be detrimental to the well being of property owners in our neighborhood. We do not believe that locating such a facility on the P-3 and J sites will give relief to the objectionable truck noise and congestion that presently exists in our area. Our third concern is the location and/or expansion of on-street truck loading zones in the neighborhood. It is inappropriate for a residential neighborhood, that includes first class hotel accommodations in its precinct, to be a truck teeming area for the adjacent commercial areas of Vail Village. We urge that the Town Council give detailed and comprehensive study to other sites and methods of providing for the delivery of goods to the adjacent commercial area.

Officers: President - Bob Galvin Secretary - Gretta Parks Treasurer - Patrick Granun Directors - Judith Berkowitz - Dolph Bridgewater - Ellie Caulkins - Ron Langley - Bill Morton - Connie Ridder To: Mayor Armour and members of the Town Council From: Jim Lamont, Executive Director Date: September 24, 1996 RE: Vail Village Truck Parking Proposal I have referred the matter of the proposed changes to the truck parking plan for Vail Vil- lage to Bob Galvin. I have discussed the merits of the proposal with him. The issues raised with him are as follows. 1. The experimental plan has raised false expectation for business and truck operators in Commercial Core One (CCI) that the proposed plan is acceptable to the owners of residential properties adjacent to CCI. The Homeowners Association has not nor does it appear likely to endorse or recommend endorsement of the proposed revisions to the Truck Delivery Section of the Transportation Master Plan that further diminishes the residential qualities of the neighbor- hoods adjacent to CCI. 2. The plan places a greater burden of the undesirabie impacts from truck parking and traffic upon adjacent residential properties located outside of CCI. Adjacent residential neigh- borhoods or properties are expected to accommodate truck noise, traffic and congestion from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.. Whereas, the properties in CCI in some areas have to endure limited truck park- ing from only 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and in some areas no truck parking at all. There is no evidence of any effort taken by the architects of the experimental plan to insure that those who generate the trucking traffic are held responsible to bear their fair share of truck parking spaces upon or adja- cent to their property. 3. The plan to allow for early morning delivery and truck traffic before 7:30 a.m. appears to be incompatible with property owners in adjacent residential neighborhoods. 4. The plan is a substantial erosion of the residential qualities of adjacent residential prop- erties because these owners are eYpected to endure truck parking and traffic in a zoned residential areas on behalf of the adjacent commercial area. 5. For the past several months, while the truck parking issue has been under review, the responsible Town administrators have made no effort to communicate or respond to concerns of adjacent residential neighborhoods. The Homeowners Association has had no input on this issue. All dialogue by Town administrators has been with business operators and truck companies and as a consequence the interests of residential property owners in adjacent neighborhood have not been fairly or accurately represented. 6. The strategy of pushing the truck delivery problem out of CCI and on to adjacent resi- dential neighborhoods or properties does nothing to create the political will on the part of CCI business owners, commercial property owners and the trucking companies to provide for a long term solution to their truck delivery and parking problem. Post Office Box 238 Vail, Colorado 81658 Telephone: (970) 827-5680 Message/FAX: (970) 827-5856 ~ Vail Village Truck Parking 9/24/1996 7. It is the policy of the Homeowners Association that large truck parking generated by CCI must be accommodated within the confines of CCI, not in adjacent or surrounding residential neighborhoods. Therefore, it is the position of the Homeowners Association that no parking for large trucks is to occur beyond the boundary of CCI, with the exception of the Vail Village Park- ing Structure and the Lodge at Vail Land Exchange Site. Paricing areas for large trucks that serve CCI that currently occur in zoned residential neighborhoods are recommended to be removed within the boundaries of the CCI zone districts 8. The Town has approved new conditional uses in CCI and has systematically waives re- quired on-site delivery loading spaces for newly approved building and businesses. By waving the on-site loading requirement the Town of Vail has taken the responsibility to provide appropriate loading facilities, as it has for required automobile parking. It is unacceptabte to the Homeowner Association that the Town of Vail's solution is to invade adjacent zoned residential neighborhoods or properties to solve a self-aggravated problem. 9. The Homeowners Association has advocated and pleaded for the past several years that a detailed study of long term solutions for the truck delivery system be initiated by the Town of Vail. The study has been funded for the past two years, but no action has been taken to autho- rize the study. It is time to initiate this study. At a minimum, the study should provide for the de- sign, engineering, operational and financing (public or private) requirements of the entire truck delivery system, including an underground truck terminal (inespective of it being publicly owned or not) on the Lodge at Vail Land Exchange site and the retrofitting of the Vail Vitlage Parking Structure to accommodate large and small delivery vehicles. Summary: A review of the proposed changes specified in the memo dated September 17, 1996, to the Town Council from Chief of Police does not appear to be factually correct in one im- portant aspect. There are significant changes being proposed that depart from the truck parking program adopted in the 1992 Town of Vail Transportation Plan. The East Village neighborhood in 1991 and 1992 strenuously objected to the parking of large trucks on Gore Creek Drive, north of the P-3 & J Sites. As a result of neighborhood objec- tions, the Truck Delivery section in the Transportation Master Plan was modified to aiiow no large trucks in this specific area. The provision has been enforced until the recent experimental program was begun. Large trucks are now loading from this area. There is no change in position on the part of the surrounding residential neighborhoods regarding the parking of large trucks in their residential neighborhood. cc: Bob Galvin 2 ~ , r 1 . • ~ ~ 'a • ~ . 3 .9 ' w ; ~ "D (3' ~ ; TOWN OF VAIL ZONING LEGEND SINGLE F1IMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT ~ TWO FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT TWO FAMILY PRIMARY/SECONDARY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT RESIDENTIAL CLUSTER DISTRICT LOW DENSITY MULTIPLE FAMILY DISTRICT MEDIUM DENSITY MULTIPLE FAMILY DISTRICT HIGH DENSiTY MULTIPLE FAMlLY DISTRICT Pt18LfC ACCOMODATJON DISTRICT ~ SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT . ~ • ~ ~ PUBLIC USE DISTRICT .

Garcia i Executive Director o Vincent Majkowski, Commissioner " y R. Brent Alderfer, Commissioner Bruce N. Smith, Director ~mes` September 13, 1996 Roy Romer Governor Dear Col l eagtze : I wanted to inform you that the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) is holding nine meetings across the state to obtain comments from utility customers concerning several issues. A schedule is enclosed. The scheduled meetings will obtain customer input on several proposed rate increases, the transition to a competitive utility marketplace and any other ratepayer concerns. You may be aware that U S WEST Communications has asked the PUC to rebalance the company's rates. U S WEST proposals include an increase in basic residential service by $3 per month and a reduction in basic business service by $2 a month. Formal PUC hearings on the proposal are scheduled to begin Oct. 28. In addition, Public Service Company has proposed an increase in its natural gas rates by $34 million. Under this proposal, the typical residential customer would have a$1.95 monthly increase and a typical commercial customer would have a$10.69 monthly increase. Formal PUC hearings on the proposal are scheduled to begin Dec. 3. Customer comments on these rate proposals will be compiled into a report, and taken into consideration during the evidentiary hearings by the Commissioners on these topics. I will also be providing an update at the meetings about what has occurred since state law changed the monopoly status of the local phone market. I will also be prepared to discuss and answer any questions concerning the restructuring of the electric industry. If you are unable to attend any of the meetings, I hope you will still provide comments in writing to the PUC. Letters concerning the proposed telephone rate increase should be submitted by October 15, 1996 and addressed to Docket No. 965-257T. Letters about the proposed natural gas rate increase should be submitted by November 15, 1996, and addressed to Docket No. 965-290G. I hope you will be able to provide the PUC with your perspective on these important issues. r truly your , . Bruce N.

We aze pleased to begin today a new service of CLUB 20 for our local government members. City/Town Update will be provided periodically as a means of keeping you in the loop on issues of interest to local governments, on which we are working. Our goal is to make sure we are on the same wave length as our Western Slope towns on these issues, and to provide them with regular information on the status. During the legislative sessions, of course, the Updates will be more detailed, as they will contain regular information on bills we're following. We hope also to include advice from time to time on how West Slope communities can help on those items of particular interest. Please feel free to use this information any way you choose. You may wish to use it just for your own information. If you wish to share it with your employees, or others on your area, you are also welcome to copy it directly. We hope you fmd these updates to be a valuable and useful benefit to your membership. As always, we welcome any thoughts or suggestions on this item, or on any way we can serve you better.

The concept of this award is to provide these outstanding students with a chance to greatly broaden and enhance their educational processes by facilitating their participation in an "internship" type experience in a resort community in another country and/or hemisphere. These students will be selected by the administration/faculty of each school and submitted to the Vail Town Council. The Town of Vail will then facilitate the arrangements for the students to be accepted in an internship program in a Sister City community (St. Moritz, Switzerland) or a ski community involved exchange programs with Vail Associates (Mt. Buller, Australia). This awazd will be presented to the student during school awards ceremonies in the spring of that student's junior year (l lth grade). The students should be appraised of selection by February of that year so that arrangements for the summer experience can be approached from a realistic time line. The Town of Vail will provide funds for the students' travel expenses and will be open to consider room and board expenses, if those are required. Such an experience could cover a 6 to 10 week time frame. The Vail Town Council will implement this experience through the Vail Valley Exchange program, Merv Lapin, President, and Karen Phillips, Director.

(more) RECYCLEDPAPER Traffic Stop/Add 1 Svnopsis of Events: At 3 p.m. on Sept. 17, Officer Mark Allen of the Vail Police Department observed a white 1996 Chevrolet Corsica with California license plates on I-70 eastbound near the Main Vail off ramp. Officer Allen observed the vehicle veer off the right side of the road and nearly strike the guard rail. Officer Allen also observed that the vehicle was speeding. Officer Allen then initiated a traffic stop and contacted the driver who was a 19-year- old female from Los Angeles. During the traffic contact, Officer Allen discovered that the driver and the two passengers, Skelton and Adams, were coming from Los Angeles and had been driving straight through to Denver. After issuing the driver a written warning for weaving and speeding, Officer Allen asked the driver for consent to search the vehicle. During the search of the vehicle, three five-gallon military-style gasoline cans were discovered in the truck of the vehicle. It was then discovered that the cans contained suspected Phencyclidine, also known as PCP. The High Country Drug Task Force, which is a combined effort of the Eagle County Sheriff's Office and the Vail Police Department, then contacted the Drug Enforcement Administration office in Glenwood Springs. The DEA Clandestine Drug Enforcement Team then responded and collected samples and made arrangements for the safe transportation of the suspected PCP. For more information regarding this case, please contact the following: Carl Hinds Drug Enforcement Administration Denver (303) 705-7316 Sgt. Joe Russell Vail Police Department (970) 479-2249. # # # ~ ~ u ~y TOWN OF VAIL 75 South Frontage Road Yail, Colorado 81657 970-479-2100 FAX 970-479-2157 MEDIA ADVISORY September 18, 1996 Contact: Suzanne Silverthorn, 479-2115 Community Information Office VAIL TOWN COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS FOR SEPTEMBER 17 Work Session Briefs Council members present: Armour, Foley, Ford, Jewett, Johnston, Kurz, Navas --Town of Vail Employee Anniversaries Members af the Council joined the staff in recognizing three employee anniversaries. Tim Barca, a mechanic in fleet maintenance, was honored for 15 years of service, while Walter Ingram, associate librarian, and Sammy Sandoval, heavy equipment operator II in the Public Works Department, were each recognized for 10 years of service, respectively. The average length of employment for town employees is approximately 8 years. --Overview of 1997 Contribution Applications The Council briefly reviewed a worksheet to be used next week in evaluating contribution requests for the 1997 budget year from outside agencies and organizations. The worksheet includes 1997 funding requests from 28 organizations, 1996 contribution levels and the town manager's funding recommendation for 1997. - The requests this year are $110,500 in excess of the $815,000 cap currently allocated, although the Council has the ability to adjust the cap accordingly. During yesterday's discussion, Councilman Paul Johnston suggested removing contractual contributions, such as the Vail Valley Tourism & Marketing Board, Colorado West Mental Health and the Vail Valley Foundation from the contribution line item to allow more equitable comparisons with some of the smaller organizations competing for the funds. While Town Manager Bob McLaurin said all 28 requests were worthy of consideration, his recommendations for funding are based on the applicants' ability to meet one or more of the town's four critical strategies: 1) effective and efficient municipal services, 2) responsible municipal leadership, 3) environment, and 4)sustained economic climate. Next year during the application process, it was suggested by Councilman Michael Jewett that applicants include a list of the board of directors and the person responsible for handling the organization's funding. RECYCLED PAPER ~ ~ TOV Council Highlights/add 1 --Information Update Council members were reminded of the loading and delivery discussion at the 2 p.m. work session next week. The discussion and presentation follows a series of experiments conducted by the Vail Police Department. --Council Reports Rob Ford gave an update on the public process for the Ford Park Management plan. Due to some new considerations by the Vail Alpine Garden Foundation to explore building its educational center adjacent to the soccer field within the Ford Park boundaries (as opposed to the middle of Ford Park), focus groups are now being held this week to follow up on other park-related issues, such as parking and access. Public meetings are planned for Oct. 2 and 3, he said, with conceptual plans coming to the Planning and Environmental Commission on Oct. 8 and before the Council on Oct. 15. Kevin Foley reported the top candidate for the director of the Regional Transportation Authority has turned down the job offer, in part, because of his inability to find housing. Foley also advised the group of the I-70 Corridor meetings this week in Idaho Springs and Frisco. Bob Armor attended a meeting of the World Alpine Ski Championship planning group, where the group agreed on a mascot for the event. --Other Following up on two constituent requests he had forwarded to the town staff, Michael Jewett asked if the staff could make it a matter of practice to send correspondence to constituents who have inquired about a matter and send a copy of the correspondence - to the council member who brought the issue to the staff's attention. Also, Jewett asked for clarification regarding the town's procedure in authorizing the drafting of ordinances to be considered by the Council. After a brief discussion, a format was suggested in which Council members would be encouraged to add items to the work session agendas to begin probing the potential for legislation on certain - matters of concern. From there, such legislation could be drafted for formal consideration. In a symbolic gesture, Paul Johnston pulled out a watering can from behind his chair, saying he had I nt seeds at the last work session and was back again to water the seeds. Saying it may be the only term of office they serve, Johnston encouraged his fellow councilmembers to keep their perspectives and to prioritize their interests. In particular, Johnston said the Council should be placing a high priority on creating locals (more) TOV Council Highlights/Add 2 housing on Forest Service property. He said he's more concerned about the shortage and absence of workers now than he's ever been before. For example, he said Vail Valley Medical Center is having problems hiring operating room nurses for the season. Johnston blamed part of the Counci!'s inaction on the distraction caused by Vail Commons. But now, it's time to move on, he said. --In preparation for the evening meeting, the Council went on a site visit to the Vail Gateway Building. Evening Session Briefs Council members present: Armour, Foley, Ford, Jewett, Johnston, Kurz, Navas --Citizen Participation Joe Stauter appeared before the Council to express his concerns about plans for employee housing units on property owned by the water district and land to be exchanged to the Town of Vail by the U.S. Forest Service. Staufer, the owner of the Vail Village Inn, said he supports employee housing, noting that he pays in excess of $10,000 per month to help provide such housing for his staff. However, he said he objects to selling the Red Sandstone units for private ownership because a portion of the land used to provide the proposed housing is currently owned by the Forest Service. He said the organization Action Vail also is opposed to the sale of the units. He used Pitkin Creek as an example of employee housing units now owned by many second homeowners because the condominiums went into private ownership. A better solution, he said, would be for the town to own the project and rent the units. Next, Sue Dugan suggested marking the lanes of the roundabouts at the Main Vail interchange. Also, she said the issue of animal control needs improvement. Dog waste, in particular, is a huge problem, she said. She suggested the town add more "clean it up" signs throughout the community. In addition, she suggested the need for a bus 5top between the Wren and Apollo Park, saying it is unsafe to on the South - Frontage Road in the winters. Lisa Watts, general manager of the Wren, said she has a meeting set up with Larry Grafel, public works director, to talk about the concern. Watts said the situation is very dangerous due to the lack of a sidewalk. In addition, she said the streamwalk is not maintained in the winter and is too slick to be used. She encouraged the town to look into the issue. (more) ~ . ~ TOV Councii Highlights/Add 3 Sue Dugan then referenced a letter faxed to Council members regarding the buddy's program and urged council members to support and consider becoming a"buddy." Next, Michael Jewett appeared before his fellow council members on behalf of the Common Sense for the Commons Committee. Jewett reviewed the history of the group and its purpose to persuade the Council to put the project up to a vote of the citizens. Jewett said fundraising has always been an issue for the individuals involved with the committee. Its members had wanted the matter to go to a vote and when it wasn't, the committee wanted the project investigated for legal issues. Hugh Warder, an attorney retained by the committee, was hired to investigate the original request for proposal process, contract negotiations and other issues. Jewett said he was here before the Council to announce that because of the costs involved and the potential of being tied up in a lengthy lawsuit, his group was closing down the Common Sense for the Commons Committee and the fundraising efforts. Jewett said he was still critical of the Vail Commons development. He said he believes the request for proposals was extremely narrow and does not believe the town actually sent out 50 as he had been told. He said he would have preferred a Target store as an anchor to the project, as opposed to City Market, something that would have complimented, not competed with retail businesses in West Vail, and recommended that it be looked at in the future. He also expressed disappointment that the Council failed to recognize a petition that was brought in to ask for a public vote on the project. With that, Jewett said the issue is closed and suggested everyone move on to the future. Lars Burghardt said he worked with Michael Jewett on the Commons Sense Committee. He complained about the ugliness of the west side of the project and all of its plaster. He said it looks like Lionshead. In the future, he said, he hoped citizen input would be taken into consideration. He expressed his disappointment in the Council's unwillingness to put the issue to a public vote. Next, Dan Charboneau, the camera operator for Vail Valley Community Television and a Vail resident, announced he is leaving his job to return to the East Coast. He complimented the Council for keeping the interests of the citizens in mind and thanked the Council for its support of Channel 5. --Vail Tomorrow Status Report Town Manager Bob McLaurin presented an update on the Sept. 7 Vail Tomorrow Community Conference. More than 130 people, including part-time residents, attended the conference in which participants identified 11 goal areas for the project: world class resort, natural & built environment, growth management, safety & security, building community, economic diversity, affordable housing, cultural & educational opportunities, youth, family and regional cooperation. Next steps have included (more) i a r ' TOV Council Highlights/Add 4 drafting goal statements for the 11 areas and doing research. He said during the next month, information will be gathered on each of the goal areas for Vail and three comparison communities (Aspen, Whistler, and Sanibel, Florida). The purpose of the research will be to describe how Vaii is doing and how other world-class resorts are doing in each of the goal areas. Then, results of the research will be shared at the next conference, "Describe Vail Tomorrow," on Nov. 1 and 2, and will form the basis for informed judgement about prioritizing the goal areas and starting to brainstorm possible action alternatives. McLaurin said it important for people to understand that they need to participate in the next conference to make sure their voices are heard on the issues they think are important. After the November conference, teams will form around the prioritized goal areas to analyze the action alternatives suggested and to begin making recommendations for action. He said it is also important that many endorsing organizations understand they will be called upon to participate in that team analysis and recommendation process. An updated list of the 26 endorsing organizations and the 11 goal statements were distributed to the Council. Mayor Bob Armour commended those who participated in the conference. --Amendment to the Vail Gateway Building Special Development District (SDD) The Council voted 5 to 2(Navas and Jewett against) to table first reading of this ordinance to allow time to complete documentation by the Gateway Plaza Condominium Association and to provide for removal of a neon illumination of the building's directory sign, which is in noncompliance with the building's original approval. The amendment calls for allowing modification of a dwelling unit in the building which would result in a new total gross residential floor area of 12,815 sq. ft., which is within the original SDD approval of not more than 13,000 sq. ft. Council members asked the request to be approved by the condominium association before bringing it back before the Council for first reading consideration. For more information, contact George Ruther in the Gommunity Development Department at 479- 2145. --Brew Pubs in Commercial Core Areas The Council voted 6 to 1(Foley opposed) to approve on second reading an ordinance that would add brew pubs to the list of conditional uses in all of the town's commercial zone districts with the exception of Commercial Core 1(Vail Village). Council members had removed Commercial Core 1 from previous consideration after hearing concerns from Jim Lamont of the East Village Homeowners Association of potential loading and delivery problems. In voting against the ordinance, Foley said he was doing so because he opposed the removal of Commercial Core 1 from consideration. The ordinance had originally been proposed by the town's staff to create consistency throughout the commercial zone districts following a request by Vail Associates to allow brew pubs as a conditional use in the Lionshead commercial area. For more information, contact Dominic Mauriello in the Community Development Department at 479-2148. (more) ~ ~ . TOV Council Highlights/Add 5 --Town Manager's Report In his town manager's report, Bob McLaurin explained that the existing signage at the Main Vail Roundabout is temporary and that new signage will be installed within the next few weeks which complies with Federal Highway Administration and Department of Transportation standards. He also talked about council goal setting, issues and strategies, and his feeling that the Vail Tomorrow process is an important component in achieving the Council's goals. He encouraged all to stay involved.
