Purpose The purpose of the Town of Vail 1997 Comprehensive Housing Strategic Plan is to document the need for adequate housing and to establish a framework for action. It articulates in a comprehensive manner )yhy adequate housing for local employees is an issue for Vail and how to address the problem of creating affordable housing for the diverse local Vail community. This strategic plan : 0 identifies the multiple resources available to the community and how they can be combined in ways that will be effective, and ~ provides a framework for decision-making, which can be relied upon by developers, community members, and elected officials. B. Philosophical Basis for the Strategic Plan The philosophical basis for the Strategic Plan is the _ compelling need to address two critical issues facing . the Vail community: ~ Maintaining Vail's economic viability, and 0 Enhancing Vail's sense of community. Economic viability The lack of affordable housing for employees within the Town of Vail affects our status as a world-class resort. Our economic vitality is threatened as necessary jobs go unfilled or are filled with unmotivated workers. f:\everyone\andyU7 admin\stratpln.901 2 updated 10/30 9 am I a Competition for employees is no longer just between ski areas or between regions, but has now become an issue within the Vail Valley. Employees who find housing down valley are likely to find jobs there, too. This problem has directly impacted many employers in Vail, including the Town of Vail, in efforts to appropriately fill employment positions. Sense of Community Much of Vail is made up of homes which house part- time residents. Approximately 70 percent of the Town's housing stock is being used by this segment of our community. Although ab(e to make a unique contribution to the Town, part-time residents are not able to engage in local activities on a day-to-day basis. As long-time locals are dcawn down valley, more homes in Vail's neighborhoods are occupied by part- time residents and are vacant most of the year, thus negatively impacting the sense of community in Vail. There is a strong economic incentive for full time ' residents to sell their homes in Vail and move down valley. The trend results in an underutilized housing stock in Vail. C. Objective of the Strategic Plan: The fundamental objective ofthe Housing Strategic Plan is to maximize the creation and presetvation of housing for local employees and to maximize the opportunities to leverage existing resources. D. Nature of the Strategic Plan: Focus The focus of the plan is on the why, who, what, how and when of affordable housing in Vail. It is a pragmatic approach, focusing on the practical and available resources. Past studies and the data currently available indicate that the problem warrants serious attention. Rather than replicating previous studies to assess the need, the plan focuses on specific implementable solutions that address previous recommendations. f 3 \everyone\andy\97 admin\stratp1n.901 updated 10/30 9 am 1 1 Benefits of the Plart This plan makes decision-making easier for all parties interested in affordable housing, including elected officials, employers, developers, and future residents. It brings together in one document the various ideas and opportunities for solving the problem of the lack of affordable housing for locals. Documenting the various ideas in a plan such as this will enable us to move past discussions and on to implementation. It will also clarify the role of the Town to all those who participate in the housing arena. Long-Term Outlook The plan is intended to be used over the next five to ten years by the Town of Vail leadership. One of the goals of the plan is to enable future Town Councils to build on the ground work laid by previous councils. Consistent application over time will lead to the most ' successful results. Geogr•aphical Scope The plan acknowledges that solutions to Vail's housing problem cannot be completel,y addressed within the town limits of Vail. Because land and other resources are limited, Vail will have to continue to work with the other players in the Vail Valley where and when appropriate. However, locating housing east of Dowd Junction is seen as a necessary priority in ocder to effectively address the economic and community impacts associated with the lack of housing for locals in Vail. Commirnizy Collaboration , The plan emphasizes the need for community collaboration in the decision-making on each housing action when development is proposed. f:\everyone\andyV7 admin\stratp1n.901 4 updated 10/30 9 am + ,t II. BACKGROUND Past efforts to develop affordable housing in the Town of Vail demonstrate that affordable housing for local employees has been a pressing need since the inception of the community. The purpose of the oveiview provided below is to highlight the successes, as well as the failures, of the various past attempts to address the housing problem in Vail. It documents the role of both the public and private sectors over the years. With this infoimation, the appropriate role for each entity will be clarified. A. Early Efforts the 1970s Affordability and availability have been at the root of Vail's housing problem since the Town's beginning. In the 1970s, the housing problem was most pressing during the ski season, but eased each spring. For those individuals interested and able to maintain employment over the summer, there were numerous housing options available. Some of the early efforts to specifically address employee housing included Apollo Park, Sandstone 70, and Vail Village 9th Filing (Red Sandstone Circle). 1. Apollo Park was built in the early 1970s by local developers on land provided by Vail Associates under a long term lease. Originally, it included four buildings and 98 dwelling units. Aspects affecting viability of the development included land costs, construction costs, and year-round occupancy rates. Vail Associates . „ ' ~"i`\\\\.•, t\ ~a.:.:::• subsidized the develoPment bY Providing a low cost . v.S:r::?:j:z.: .~..:.`.`~,•`.,,:>.>\:ti::i:`>.E>` •.c.s::!::::t.::..:`i:`:<,•::`;?:~::::::':.::;;;::'tt:: land lease, conditioning the lease rate with a requirement that the land must be used for employee housing. VA provided an option to the developer to purchase the larid for uses other than employee housing, but disincentivised the conversion with a hi h t.. 'a g r>•: ( i • \ti•:•}:::;'• ~ l?~,:, purchase price. However' due to the lower than estimated revenue generated by employee rentals, and the potential for greater revenue from other uses, the Apollo Park developers purchased the land from VA after approximately 5 years and converted half of the project into time-share condominiums and the other half to short-term accommodations. This conversion was of great concern to the community at the time. f:\everyone\ar?dy\97 admin\stratpin.901 5 updated 10/30 9 am 11 2 Vail village 9th Filing is a single family subdivision located at the intersection of the North Frontage Road and Red Sandstone Road. It includes 12 lots, which Vail Associates sold to VA employees, enabling them to build homes for themselves. Some of the original employees who bought these parcels remain as VA employees and continue to live in these homes. ~ . However, without a cap on appreciation, the lots were ~~\;;~::;:M.r~:>>: k •ly\\~\\~~4\: . 4v`..\\~~~'.\+l~N'~~~~~. . affordable for only the original purchasers, and in one case the buyer left VA immediately after acquiring the lot. ~w::;:. ` ~?c. ::\Yti;;`;`'\v:••c\>.•'~. ~Y .

In conclusion, the first employee housing efforts in Vail were based in the Private sector.

The one rental project (Apollo Pat-k) was not viable over time, because of poor occupancy rates due to the sai,d;ioi,c 70 seasonal nature of the housing demand. B. Growing Town Involvement 1980s Two projects, Pitkin Creek Park and Timber Ridge, came on-line in the early 1980s. Both were significantly larger and more complex than earlier efforts. It appears private sector's motivation to enter the housing market had not changed from the previous decade. However, this period shows the increasing role of the Town of Vail, specifically with financing and deed restrictions. f:\everyone\andy\97_admin\stratp1n.901 6 updated 10/30 9 am 1. Pith-in Creek Park was one of the first opportunities for the Town to play a greater role in addressing the housirrg problem. Fi•om its inception in the late 1970s, the project was based on municipal rate financing (vs. market rate, which was higher), for both the construction phase and the end-user buy-out phase. This method of financing provided lower cost funds for MI construction and provided individual mortgaQes for {`i~i home buyers at significantly lower rates than the then- rr cu ent conv nti e onal mark et r atefinnci a n Th e g• fnancin was rovided via the Town,s abili to sec g P ty w'e allocations from the State of Colorado foc Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRBs) and Private Activity Bonds (PABs). As a result of its participation, the Town required the devetoper to deed-restrict the 156 • condominium units with stipulations that the home buyers be employed in the Upper Eagle Valley and that resale prices be capped at an annual rate of 1.5 of the P~tkii, Creek Park Consumer Price Index (CPI). The Town requested that the restrictions run in petpetuity. However, the ' developer could not sell the bonds with this condition and the Town, developer, and bond purchasers ultimately compromised on a restiiction lasting seven years. 2. Tirnber Ridge was developed concun-cntly with Pitkin Creek Park. In that project, the developcr proposed a Special Development Distiict and requcsted to triPle <::~.;<>: the number of dwelling units above the permitted ~;:<w;;~;~;_, zoning to allow for 198 units. The Town approved the R . .:A request, with the condition that the developer deed restrict the prope?-ty, limiting residents to those em lo ed at business located in the U er Ea le Valle . ~ `~'V P Y PP- g Y and requiring lease periods be written for no less than . . . 30 days.

In 1987> the 1?roJ'ect went i nto ~~~~.~3S.~n\ .~•:ii~:ti`\¢<:,:3.~:~>~~:;:.>:k:~,<.~~.w foreclosure. Causes for the foreclosure were primarily Timber Ridge due to the seasonal fluctuation of the revenue stream, which is significant, as it highlights the challenge associated with rental developments targeted at the seasonal market. For the 1997-98 season, 9 1 % of the project has been master leased to local corporations, with Vail Associates reserving approximately 60% of f:\everyone\andy\97_admin\stratp1n.901 7 updated 10/30 9 am the total project for its seasonal employees. The exact breakdown is as follows: VA 117 59.1% Lodge at Vail 17 8.6% Marriott 16 8.1 % Vail Cascade 10 5.1% McDonalds 8 4.0% TOV 6 3.0% Holiday Inn 5 2.5% Wendy's 2 1.0% Individuals 17 8.6% In conclusion, the Town became more active in the housing • arena duting the 1980s, facilitating financing, approving bonus density, and taking measures to prevent housing from being quickly converted into other uses with deed restrictions. The impetus for private sector development of housing for local employees continued to be the financial return provided by targeting this under-served niche in the market. The scale of the projects grew from 12 - 100 units in the 1970s to 150 -•200 units during the 1980s. Although the introduction of deed restiictions helped maintain availability and affordability more than had occurred previously, the deed restrictions of these projects were relatively short in length. After seven years, Pitkin Creek Park units were sold on the free market and many have been purchased by second home owners. Today, of the 156 units at Pitkin Creek, 67 are owner-occupied and 55 are used as long- term local rentals. Since the expiration of the deed restriction, 34 units have been converted to second home ownership. The deed restriction on Timber Ridge expires in 2001, enabling the owner to consider other uses for the property at that time. f:\everyone\andy\97 admin\stratp1n.901 8 updated 10/30 9 am C. Recent Efforts the 1990s After the two previously discussed developments were brought on-line in the early 1980s, real estate piices fell significantly due to the oil and gas recession. Housing costs dropped and development slowed. The 1989 World Alpine Ski Championships coincided with an upward trend in the real estate market. The desire of the community to provide world- class setvices, and the need for the employees to do that emphasized the need for affocdable housing. In 1990, the Town of Vail commissioned a housing needs assessment, which was completed by RRC Associates, a research and consulting firm. One of the recommendations stated that "An additional 800 to 1,000 units would be absorbed by the Eagle County winter market over the next two to three years." It also identified between 3,000 to 3,800 persons requiring some level of assistance to secure affordable housing. The study recommended multiple steps the Town of Vail could take to address the problem. Many of the recommendations were in ' fact, implemented by the Town, including: 1 . Z ' 0 Cvde Ae n ndrne ncng r nts Am ong the stePs ke~ n ' ta n r esPonse to th e e studY, t h Town adopted amendments to the zoning code to create incentives for the development of caretaker units <,...and similar dced restricted units throughout the community. As of October 1997, there are 106 employee units dispersed throughout Town, with varying degrees of restriction. (Early caretaker X~ restrictions di d not specify that the units had to be occupied by emp(oyees; only units approved since Ma Y . . E;:??:i:i:::::::::;;:::::>':f:E#fEE?:EEEEEEE:':'::>i;i::::Er::::::;.... 1994 have that requirement. Thus, while many of the ' Duplex with Employee Housin(Y Unit units are used consistently with the spirit of the deed t•estriction, only 24 of the total of 106 units are required to be occupied.) 2. Housing Author-ity In 1991, the Town established a Housing Authority to develop affordable housing, appointing five community members to the board from a field of 25 interested applicants. Although the Town Council did not support proposed rezonings associated with the projects proposed by the Authority, the increased awareness of the need motivated the Council to become proactive in solving the problem. Council assumed a stronger role in the affordable housing effort by f \everyone\andy\97 admin\stratp1n.901 9 updated 10/30 9 am purchasing a parcel of land, referred to as Vail Commons, which could accommodate housing without requiring any rezoning requests, f 3. Vail Cornmons ` The Town purchased a 6-plus acre site located on the North Frontage Road in 1993, earmarking it for ~ housing. In 1994, the Town initiated a process to f:> . :;::;•::F_ develop the site. In addition to the residential use, it became aPParent that a commercial comPonent would make the develoPment economicallY feasible and , "N;~i`''''i,$;':iii:i~~ii:;ii;''r,'.ii;:::i<:<i'v.:•':A;>`::''i>i deliver affordable units without direct subsidy fromthe Town. After testing the capacity of the site for various ~~,b~~c wor~:s scaso~,ai Ho~~;~~,~;s~~e densities, target markets, and uses, the Town held a national competition for developers to build a mixed- use program of commercial buildings and local's housing units. ~ ~ . { After some debate on the best Program for the site, the Town selected a developer who then constructed 71 ` ' pcipetual ly deed-restricted units and 70,000 square feet . of commercial area. The project includes 53 W.;.; townhouses and condominiums, sold through a lottery : , to individuals and families who wanted to purchase real r i•x. k~~~~fr S estate and put roots down in the community. The units were occupied immediately after certificates of Vt11I C,<1I111110115 occupancy were issued and the project was 100% complete by July, 1997. The deed restrictions require that owners be employed in Eagle County, that the homes be owner-occupied, and that the resale prices be capped at a 3% annual rate of appreciation. In addition to the 53 owner-occupied units, there are 18 rental units for the employees of the commercial business on- site. Many of the components of the development were precedent setting, including the clear need for community dialogue concerning affordable housing proposals. The three efforts discussed above stem from the 1990 Housing Study. Other efforts occurring during this period are described below. 4. Public Works Seasonal Housing With the Vail Commons development underway, the f:\e veryone\andy\97_admin\stratpln.901 10 updated 10/30 9 am Town Council approved plans for a 24-unit seasonal employees development at the Town's Public Works site, slated for completion in April of 1998. 5. Down vallev Activitv It is important to note that as the down valley market has grown, other private sector and governmental . agencies have taken an active role in providing affordable housing. Two large housing developments have been constiucted down valley, beginning with EagleBend in Avon (240 units built in 1991), and Lake Creek Village located just west of Edwards (270 units built in 1993). Avon completed a 17-unit ownership project in Wildridge in 1991. In 1997, Vail Resorts broke ground on RiverEdge, a 104 unit development located in Avon. Each of the three projects required public sector participation; two were provided with tax- fi-ee financing via a non-profit local government sponsored corporation (63/20 corporation), and one was provided assistance with financing. 6. Unsuccessferl Private Sectot• Efforts in Vail In the eai-ly 1990s, a dcveloper teamcd with a Vail architectural firm and proposed 250 employee housing units on three sites in Town-- onc located in Inteimountain, onc located in Wcst Vail, and one located at the Town-owncd Mountain Bell site near the main Vail roundabout. Each of the three sites required rczonings; one site was owned by thc Town. Even after scaling the magnitude of the proposal down to 180 units, the community still opposed the rezonings and the developei- did not pursue his application. During the 1990s, there was a significantly larger effort made by both the private and public sectors than had been made in previous yeai•s. The demand for housing grew and the seasonality of vacancy rates diminished. (This is evidenced by the low year-round vacancy rates over multiple years for the large employee housing developments.) Opportunities in Vail have become limited, due to the lack of available sites, the need for rezoning for additional density, and the need for subsidies. The Town recognized the positive impacts of long term deed restrictions and moved from requiring seven and 20-year restrictions to restrictions that run in-perpetuity:• Enforcement f \everyone\andy\97_admin\stratp1n.901 11 updated 10/30 9 am is a key follow up actiqn which the Town staff will provide to insure the units are used consistently with the restrictions. The total number of approved deed restricted units occupied or under construction in the Town of Vail as of October, 1997 is as follows: Dispersed 106 Vail Commons 71 Public Works 24 Timber Ridge 198 Total 399 D. Lessons Learned The efforts from the past are described above to show what issues have prevented the Town from reaching its goals in the affordable housing arena. Below is a summary of the lessons learned to date. 1. Land availability and cost continue to be the most difficult hurdles to clear. 2. Every affordable housing development is a political challenge. While six sites proposed for housing between 1990 and 1995 have been stopped by community opposition, the two more recent efforts (1995 - 1997) have been successful. 3. Deed restrictions are necessary to preserve availability and affordability for future generations of residents and to protect the initial public investment (financing, land, subsidy, etc.) 4. Partnerships, are key. In the early 1990s several projects initiated by both the private and public sectors were not successful. However, the public-private partnership projects developed down valley and most recently with Vail Commons have been successful and provide opportunities to leverage public resources. f:\everyone\andy\97 admin\stratpln.901 12 updated 10/30 9 am 5. The historically seasonal nature of rental demand has become less of a problem over time, but the cyclical nature of the seasonal demand that remains makes seasonal rental housing the most difficult product to provide. III. IDENTIFICATION OF TODAY'S NEED The local's housing problem is frequently identified as one of the primaiy issues facing the community, and many individuals have personal stories about the difficulties encountered in finding affordable housing in Vail. The statistics shown below regarding the home ownership market and the rental market in Vail document the need. They show the trends since 1990 and benchmark Vail's current status. . A. The Home Ownership Housing Market For the purposes of tracking historical housing data, two types of housing have been selected to cepresent the real estate market: "condominiums" and "half-duptexes." These housing types are commonly found in Town and are less expensive then the close counteiparts of "single family" and "townhouse," and therefore, are deemed to be more affordable for locals. Since 1990, wages in Eagle County have increased at a rate of 3.8 This compares to a housing cost increase of 8.7% in real estate sales. Clearly, wages have not keptpace with housin costs. (See charts and sources listed below.) There is a perception that wages in resort areas are higher than in non- resort mountain communities and compensate for the higher costs of living, specifically housing costs. However, when Eagle County wages are compared to that of the state or national averages, the local wages lag behind due to the fact that the high paying sectors, such as manufacturing, are under represented in this area and the low paying sectors, such as retail services, are over represented. f:\everyone\andy\97_admin\stratp1n.901 13 updated 10/30 9 am Table 1: Avera e Annual Wa es for Ea le Coun : Annual Wages Hourly Wages 1990 $18,814 $9.05 1991 $19,741 $9.49 1992 $21,505 $10.34 1993 $22,083 $10.61 1994 $22,263 $10.70 1995 $23,367 $11.23 Source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis Table 2: Median Sales Prices for Residential Real Estate in Vail: Condominium Half-Duplex 1990 $130,000 S315,000 1991 5130,000 S236,000 1992 $155,000 $333,000 1993 $166,000 S436,000 1994 $187,250 $405,000 1995 $212,000 S462,500 1996 S210,000 $530,000 Source: Eagle County Assessor's OFfice Table 3: Percent Chan e Since 1990: Wages 3.8% Condominium Costs 8.3% Half-Duplex Costs 9.1°/a rAverage Housing Cost $.7% f:\everyone\andy\97_admin\stratp1n.901 14 updated 10/30 9 am j Wages vs. Sales Prices of Condos Annual Rates of Increase $250,000 $200,000 ' i $150,000 $100,000 $50,000 $0 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 Wages - - Sales Prices Note that wage data represents all of Eagle County, not just Vail. Assumptions about the relationship between Vail and Eagle County would need to be made to break the data down ' to represent just the Town of Vail. This has not been done as it would diminish the accuracy without clarifying the analysis. Home sales prices reflect the real estate transactions completed within the municipal boundaries of the Town of Vail. For these purposes, sales prices shown are the median price, as that is a better reflection of the market than the mean price. A moi•e effective mcthod of evaluating the wages vs. housing issue is to compare the number of average paying jobs needed to purchase the average condominium or half-duplex. Table 5: Number of jobs required to purchase a home in Vail: Com arison of Table 1 and Table 2) Condominium Half-Duplex 1990 2.6 6.3 1991 23 43 1992 2.3 5.0 1993 2.2 5.9 1994 2.6 5.6 1995 2.9 6.3 f:\everyone\ar?dyU7 admin\stratp1n.901 15 updated 10/30 9 am The assumptions made for the analysis above include a down payment of 10% of the purchase price, a mortgage rate reflecting the average rate for the calendar year, private mortgage insurance of .075% of the loan amount, insurance rates based on local providers estimates, and the tax rate for East Vail, which falls in the middle of a relatively tight range of mill levies for the various pai-ts of the Town of Vail. (See Exhibit A.) As the data shows, housing located in Vail is becoming less and less attainable for local employees. Some may suggest that the housing market for Vail workers logically includes all of the Vail Valley, and that the less expensive homes down valley adequately meet the housing needs of Vail employees. That argument merits two additional considecations. ' First, locating housing outside Vail, or encouraging locals to seek housing outside Vail, defeats the two primary goals of ' Vail's strategy. It does not bolster the sense of community, nor does it maintain the economic viability, given the job competition down valley. Secondly, down valley housing costs, although statistically lower than Vail, are still unattainable for many residents and demonstrate similar, and in some cases steeper, growth rates. - B.

Implications for the Town's Goal of Maintaining Economic Viability Filling available job openings with qualified, motivated workers is a primary concern for local business owners, including the Town of Vail itself. Vacancy rates and turnover rates increase costs, as training and overtime budgets are strained. Tale 10 lists major employers in the Valley. Although some are located outside of the Town, the group reflects the top ten largest employers in the County, and is intended to document the needs of a majority of the employment positions in the Valley. 1,~ f:\everyone\andyU7 admin\stratp1n.901 updated 10/30 9 am Table 10: Em lo ee shorta e and turnover estimated b lar e em lo ers in the County Business Total number Shortage of Employee of employees employees in 96/97 Tumover summer / winter winter season each season Vail Associates, Inc. 2000 / 4000 150 50% Cordillera 650 / 375 30 15% Eagle County School District 600 4 7.5% City Market (4 stores) 504 41 91 % Vail Valley Medical Center 500 25 30% Hyatt Beaver Creek 300 / 450 50 80% Sonnenalp 340 / 370 20 30% Eagle County 300 0 9% Marriot 250 / 275 5- 12 40% Town of Vail 216 / 251 9 12.5% D. Implications for the Town's Goal of Enhancing the Sense of Community The cost of housing is directly related to the supply//availabi(ity of housing. The percentage of homes in Vail used by part-time residents has remained in the 70% range for the last several years. Vail's high proportion of home which stand vacant much of the year affects not only housing costs, but also the goal of enhancing Vail's sense of community. Increasing the percentage of full-time resident is an important'goal of this plan. In conversations with many second home owners conducted during the Vail Tomorrow process, as well as the responses in the community survey, there appears to be a trend of part-time residents making Vail their home. In the 1996 community - survey, 11 percent of the part-time residents reported they were "very likely" to make Vail their primary residence in the next five to ten years, with another 12 percent indicating a moderately high level of likelihood. It is important to note that the demographics of the community may change as a result of this trend. f \everyone\andy\97 admin\stratp1n.901 1 g updated 10/30 9 am Table 11: Percent of local home ownershi Percent of homes occupied by locals 1990 27.53% 1991 26.61% 1992 26.72% 1993 27.14% 1994 30.47% 1995 29.78% 1996 29.56% Sources: 1991-1996 Colorado Demography Service 1990 U.S. Census E.

Projections for construction The Vail Tomorrow Affordable Housing Team set of goal to provide Vail housing for 62% of the employees who work in Vail. This compares to Aspen's goal of 60% and Vail's current level of 3 8%. Number of jobs in Vail: 7000 Desired number of employees working in Vail who live in Vail (62%) 4340 Current number of employees working in Vail who live in Vail (38%) 2660 Additiorral residerlt employees needed to irrrn it at-oirrad 1680 Council member Rob Ford has projected a goal of housing 50% of the local work force in Vail, which modifies the Vail Tomorrow projections as follows: Number of jobs in Vail: 7000 Desired number of employees working in Vail who live in Vail (50%) 3500 Current number of employees working in Vail who live in Vail (38%) 2660 Additional resident employees needed to meet goal 1240 Assuming 2.5 persons per household, there is a need for 672 dwelling units to meet the Vail Tomorrow goal or 496 dwelling units to meet Council Member Ford's goal. Additionally, by building 50 units per year, it would take 10 years to meet the goal. III. Review of Vacant Land in Vail Considerations: Lack of large parcels, need to evaluate the use of Town lands, under utilized parcels or hidden resources may become more important, look for ways to incentivise the inclusion of housing on the remaining parcels, look to the existing housing stock as a resource.

Mr. Bowen stated that this year's planting resulted in 100 large trees being planted in 3 hrs 45 min in the Booth Falls area. Bowen acknowledged staff inembers Mike Mollica and Todd Oppenheimer for their key roles in the success of this program. Carol Duddy, local realtor, asked the Council not to complete their discussions on GRFA (gross residential floor area). She suggested directing the staff to continue discussions regarding new construction. Duddy felt a problem with illegal units may continue if discussions were not continued and the same problem would exist. Mayor Armour stated the council had decided not to pursue this matter any further, and thanked Ms. Duddy for her concern. Julie Chapman, a resident in East Vail, addressed the council in relation to adding an additional bus in the village that would depart after 2:30 a.m. She stated that an additional bus had been _ added to the-West Vail-Intermountain area last season. Town Manager McLaurin stated he . , would research the cost of adding an additional run for this increased service. - Eifeen Connors, addressed the Council again on environmental issues, criticizing the Town for not making process with a solid waste plan. She stated the Town was approaching a crisis stage on the recycling issues, stating the land fill was overused and approaching capacity. She also expressed her frustration in the Town's and Vail Associates' lack of support in cooperating in airing her concerns on the local media regarding the environment and Category III. Josef Staufer, local Vail businessman, spoke in support of the Vail Village Merchants Association regarding redirecting a portion of the business license fees to be used for Vail-specific projects, as opposed to spreading the money valley wide. He suggested the Council match all down valley funds raised for marketing. He also was concerned about a petition being circulated out of the Vail Tomorrow conference supporting regional marketing, as he was not sure this was the feeling of the entire Vail marketing community. The second item on the agenda was the consent agenda approving the Minutes from the September 2 and 16, 1997, Council meetings and Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1997, second reading of an Ordinance to Amend Section 10.08.010, Parking to Obstruct Traffic, and to Enact Section 10.08.130, Parking Emergency, of the Municipal Code of the Town of Vail, Colorado. Assistant Town Manager Pam Brandmeyer advised the council that Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1997, had been pulled from the agenda for additional work and would be heard at the October 21, 1977, evening meeting. Councilmember Johnston made a motion to approve the September 2 and 16, 1997, minutes and Councilmember Navas seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously. The third item on the agenda was Ordinance No. 18, Series of 1997, first reading of an ordinance Approving the General Planning Document for the 1999 World Alpine Ski Championships, and Setting Forth a Special Review Process to Allow for Staff Approvals for Temporary Signs, Structures, Street Decor, and Other Temporary Improvements for the World Alpine Ski Championships of 1999. Assistant Town Manager Brandmeyer presented the ordinance to the council, stating that a similar ordinance had been inacted prior to the 1989 Championships, stating the ordinance would provide for many unusual special events requests of this magnitude. Councilmember Sybill Navas made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 18, Series of 1997, and Councilmember Ludwig Kurz seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously and was ordered published in full on first reading. I ~ I The fourth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1997, an ordinance amending Section 18.52.1606.(7) Exemptions, under Off-Street Parking and Loading, of the Town of Vail Code. Town Manager McLaurin presented the ordinance to the council, stating that the main purpose of this action was two-fold: to assure the Town of collecting the pay-in-lieu fees owed to the town, and to allow the merchant time and a financial tool with which to pay the amount due. McLaurin stated the deed of trust gave the town an avenue of assurance . in collecting these fees. Glen Heelan, representing the Vail Village Club, addressed the council expressing his opposition to such an ordinance. Heelan stated the deed of trust was too - stringenf and would discourage future development and limit business opportunities in Vail. He _ stated this was a short term decision that would have long term implications on the town. Heelan stated this may affect a property owner's ability to sell his property. Councilmember Rob Ford stated the Town Council was volunteering to act as a bank to help peopfe that have to sign personal guarantees or deeds of trust. Ford stated this does not release the business owner from the debt, stating he did not feel the town should do anything different than a bank would do for money owed. Ford stated the Town has lost money in the past, and this program would be the same as lending money just like a bank. Mr. Heelan stated he felt this would deter business growth by putting a heavy burden on personal development. There was much discussion following regarding the town's position on the collection of pay-in- lieu fees. Town Manager Bob McLaurin stated the council could table the ordinance until Town Attorney Tom Moorhead was back or Council could pass it on first reading and get Moorhead's input prior to second reading. Town Manager McLaurin stated he felt the Town needed to take a stronger position on guarantees and it was not his preference to be in the banking business. McLaurin stated the town needs to be more responsible than it has in the past. Mr. Heelan posed several scenarios relating to businesses requesting construction loans, moving their business out of the building or out of the area, making it difficult for the landlord or the lessee to acquire financing. : Councilmember Michael Jewett stated the ordinance said nothing about prepayment penalties and felt this should be included in the verbiage. Councilmember Jewett then made a motion to table Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1997, until Town Attorney Moorhead had a chance to review the Council's and the public's input and revise the ordinance. Councilmember Rob Ford seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 4-2, Paul Johnston and Bob , Armour opposing, feelirrg that the issue could be resolved between first.and second reading. ~ The fifth item on the agenda was a TCI information update. Fred Lutz, from TCI, gave an overview regarding a proposal to modify TCI's agreement with the town. The plan currently proposed is to build out its cable plant from 270 megahertz to 400 megahertz. The original agreement was to buitd out to 500 megahertz. The current franchise calls for a complete build out of the cable system with fiber optic cable providing up to 78 analog channels to be completed by January 1998. Council requested a list of channels that would be available as well as a customer rate sheet. The Council has also hired an independent consulting firm to evaluate TCI's current proposal and will report back to the Council to review their findings. The sixth item on the agenda was the Town Manager Report. Town Manager McLaurin stated that per his report, the West Vail Roundabout should be completed by October 17th. The potential of a bonus is a possibility, with the completion being done on time. The Council concurred with McLaurin that the contractor has done a very good job on the overall project. As there was no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:10 P.M. Respectfully submitted, Robert W.

Jim Lamont, representing the East Village Homeowner's Association, stated they are in favor of the concept of valet parking. However, he expressed that neighborhood property owners have concerns regarding the ability to change or broaden the pickup and drop off areas. Jim urged the Town Council to include a provision in the management agreement to have "bailout" procedures if the valet parking doesn't work and to continue to work on it. Eileen Connors, a resident of Vail, addressed the Council again on environmental issues. She stated she was in front of Council before and has not received any phone calls or response from the Council regarding her concerns. She criticized the Council for not taking a stronger stance on environmental issues. The second item on the agenda was the consent agenda to approve two items. The first is the appointment of the election judges for the Regular Municipal Election to be held Tuesday, November 18, 1997. The appointees as judges are Karen Morter, Jeanne Tilkmeier, Holiday M. Cole and Mary Jo Allen. The next item on the consent agenda was to approve Ordinance No. 18, Series of 1997, second reading of an ordinance Approving the General Planning Document for the 1999 World Alpine Ski Championships, and Setting Forth a Special Review Process to Allow for Staff Approvals for Temporary Signs, Structures, Street Decor, and Other Temporary Improvements for the World Alpine Ski Championships of 1999. Councilmember Rob Ford made a motion to approve both items and the motion was seconded by Councilmember Paul Johnston. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 6-0. The third item on the agenda was a presentation of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations for the Town Council's information and feedback. Keith Montag, Director of Community Development for Eagle County and Ellie Caryl, Senior Planner for Eagle County, made the presentation. Keith explained the background of the Revised Land Use Regulations and stated he wanted the Council to review and become familiar with the Eagle County Land Use Regulations and give Eagle County feedback on the regulations.

Keith stated the final draft of the regulations may go to public hearing in January or February of 1998, with adoption of the regulations in early 1998. 1 f Y 1Keith thanked the Council for their time and consideration. Councilmembers then asked questions of Keith and Ellie for clarification purposes. Sybil stated the goals are similar to the Town of Vail's goals. The fourth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1997, first _ reading of an ordinance amending Section 18.52.1606.(7) Exemptions, under Off-Street Parking and Loading, of the Town of Vail Code. Tom Moorhead, Town Attorney, stated the ordinance was brought to Council to extend the period of time up to ten years within which the payment of a parking fee can be made. The Code presently provides for a five year period of repayment which may not be feasible or adequate at the current level of payment required for parking pay-in-lieu. It is appropriate that any agreement to pay the parking pay-in-tieu fee in the future be secured adequately by both personal and corporate guarantees as well as deeds of trust on the subject property and any other real property that can be offered as security. Tom addressed issues Council raised at a prior meeting. There was much discussion following regarding the Town's position on the collection of pay-in- lieu. Jim Lamont, representing the Vail Village Homeowner's Association, stated he talked to several property owners. They want to have input from a banker and don't feel the Town of Vail has the background available to be bankers. There needs to be clarity regarding parking pay-in-lieu through education. Can property owners get a rebate if parking is provided at a later date. There needs to be well-defined procedures for this issue. Bill Whiteford, representing Gretta Parks, stated there should be a feasible goal so smaller entrepreneurs and business owners can afford the parking pay-in-lieu fees. The ordinance as currently proposed will interfere with business. He suggested this ordinance be tabled. There was additional discussion and the Council requested the staff obtain further information _ from other government entities and bankers. . Councilmember Ludwig Kurz made a motion to table Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1997, and Councilmember Rob Ford seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 5-1, with Councilmember Mike Jewett opposed. The fifth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1997, first reading of an Annual Appropriation Ordinance: Adopting a Budget and Financial Plan and Making Appropriations to Pay the Costs, Expenses, and Liabilities of the Town of Vail, Colorado, for its Fiscal Year January 1, 1998, Through December 31, 1998, and Providing for the Levy Assessment and Collection of Town Ad Valorem Property Taxes Due for the 1997 Tax Year and Payable in the 1998 Fiscal Year. Bob McLaurin discussed the budget process and . what the budget included for 1998. He stated the two-year budget process is working. He stated that the budget is difficult to prepare and gave Steve Thompson credit for putting the budget together. Additional discussion followed regarding the budget for 1998. Steve Thompson stated the wording in Ordinance 20, Series of 1997, Page 2, Section 4, should be changed from "Abatement mill levy" to "Mill levy credit". Councilmember Paul Johnston made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1997, with Councilmember Ludwig Kurz seconding the motion. A vote was taken and the motion was passed unanimousty, 6-0. There was additional discussion regarding the wording change from abatement mill levy to mill levy credit. Councilmember Ludwig Kurz made a motion to revise his motion to include changing the wording in Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1997, Page 2, Section 4, from "Abatement mill levy" to "Mill levy credit", Councilmember Paul Johnston seconded the motion. A vote was taken and 2 ~ . the motion was passed unanimously, 6-0.

Tom Moorhead stated the present penatty assessment for all parking violations is $16.00. This fine is inadequate for the Commercial Core and in those circumstances where illegal parking blocks maintenance and snow plowing. By providing different violations for those - - circumstances, the Municipal Court Judge will have a reasonable basis for providing an enhanced penalty assessment for those aggravated parking violations. Greg Morrison, Police Chief, stated that presently the cost of a parking fine is about the same as one day of parking. This ordinance allows for the Town Manager and the Police Chief to declare emergency areas that would allow for special parking. Councilmember Rob Ford made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1997, and was seconded by Councilmember Mike Jewett. There was additional discussion regarding what the fees will be and how the public will know what that amount will be. Sybill Navas, Mayor Pro-tem stated that Paragraph 1 b needs clarification. She expressed that the idea is not to hand out more parking tickets but to make it clear that parking is prohibited in certain areas. Tom Moorhead stated a map with the details of where parking is prohibited will be in Town Clerk's office for the public to review and that there will be signs in the areas prohibiting parking. Greg Morrison stated public works has improved signs. He also said public works could add a small sign,.with the amount of the fine, to signs already there. . - Jim Lamont, representing the East Village Horneowner's Association, stated more signs at strategic locations should be added and that this ordinance is a good one. Councilmember Ludwig Kurz requested that at the beginning of the ski season the Town publish the map in the newspapers. Buck Allen, Municipal Judge, stated the cost of the parking fines would increase to $26.00. Tom Moorhead stated the wording for Item No. 1 B, on Page 1, Section 10.08.010 could be amended to read: "B. No person shall park any vehicle upon a street or at any other pface within the commercial cores and areas immediately adjacent thereto of this municipality at any place where official signs prohibit or regulate parking or stopping as such areas are depicted on a map maintained in the office of the Town Clerk." Councilmember Rob Ford made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1997, with the wording change as stated by Tom Moorhead, and was seconded by Councitmember Mike Jewett. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 6-0. The seventh item on the agenda was the Town Manager Report. Town Manager McLaurin introduced Lorelei Donaldson as the new Town Clerk. He also invited the Council the next CAST meeting. He also explained he had exptored the complaints at City Market on the ventilation system issue. The town hired a consultant, Howard McGregor of Engineering Dynamics, to analyze the noise problem. The City Market ventilation system currently complies with the Town noise ordinance. The consultant came up with an alternative plan that costs $10,000 that would bring the noise levels down another 10 decibels. City Market is willing to split the costs, half and half, with the Town. Councilmember MikeJewett stated the Town should not pay any of the costs and that he feels this is a City Market issue. Any business has an obligation to take care of their own problems. 3 ~ ~ He stated it is inappropriate for the Town to pay. The burden should be with City Market. Tom Moorhead stated the Town is the landowner and that City Market is not in viotation of the noise ordinance. There was additional discussion regarding the reduction of the noise levels and how the fee would be paid. Sybill stated she would be inclined to do it, that the Town is the landowner, and the Town is perceived as part of project. Councilmember Rob Ford made motion to use a supplemental appropriation of $5,000 to pay for half of this bill, and was seconded by Councilmember Ludwig Kurz. After more discussion, a vote was taken and the motion was passed 4-2, with Councilmembers Mike Jewett and Kevin Foley opposed. There was a discussion regarding the proposal for loading and delivery. Councilmember Kevin Foley explained Town of Vail employees will be hosting a garage sale to benefit Holly McCutcheon this Saturday, October 25, and all were invited to participate. As there was no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:30 P.M. Respectfully submitted, Robert W.

Armour, Mayor Attest: Lorelei Donaldson, Town Clerk READ AND APPROVED ON SECOND READING AND ORDERED PUBLISHED IN FULL this 18th day of November, 1997. Robert W. Armour, Mayor Attest: Lorelei Donaldson, Town Clerk Ordinance 21, Series of 1997 24 MEMORANDUM TO: Planning and Environmental Commission FROM: Community Development Department DATE: November 11, 1996 SUBJECT: A request for a major amendment to SDD #4 (Cascade Village), to allow - modifications to allowable GRFA and building height limitations, located at 1150 , Westhaven Lane/Lots 39-1 & 39-2, Glen Lyon Subdivision. - Applicant: Timothy Pennington, represented by Diane Larsen Planner: Dominic Mauriello 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST The applicant is requesting a major amendment to SDD #4 (Cascade Village, Development Area C) to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 (single-family residential lots) located in the Glen Lyon Subdivision. The applicant is requesting the following: 1. That the lots be subject to the Primary/Secondary Residential zone district calculation for Gross Residential Floor Area (GRFA)(Section 18.13.080 of the Zoning Code) which is consistent with all of the other residential lots in the Glen Lyon Subdivision. Currently, each lot is limited to 3,100 sq. ft. of GRFA per Resolution No. 10, Series of 1982. Under the proposed calculation, Lot 39-1 • would be entitled to 6,446.65 sq. ft. of GRFA and Lot 39-2 would be entitled to . 6,834.34 sq. ft. of GRFA. 2. That the lots be subject to the height limitations of the Primary/Secondary . Residential zone district (Section 18.13.075 of the Zoning Code) which is consistent with all of the other residential lots in the Glen Lyon Subdivision. . Cu'rrently, the building height for these lots is restricted to 25' per. Resolution No. 10, Series of 1982. llnder this proposal, building heights would be restricted to - 30' for flat roof structures and 33' for sloping roof structures. 3. That each lot be entitled to a Type II EHU (which requires conditional use approval). All other lots have been allowed to go through the Conditional Use review process for the establishment of Type II EHU's in this subdivision. The current ordinance is silent on the EHU issue and is proposed to be amended to clarify this issue. The actual number of EHU's allowed will also be limited based on the access to the site. The skier bridge was approved at a width that will only allow three dwelling units including EHU's on these two sites. The applicant is proposing building envelopes on the property which will prevent the removal of any existing trees and prevents development on slopes greater than 30% (see attached survey). The envelopes are more restrictive than the typical setbacks for a Primary' /Secondary Residential zoned lot. 1 - / ~ ~ Please note that the applicanYs original request proposed to calculate the GRFA for these two lots according to the Single-Family Residential (SFR) zone district but has amended their application at the request of staff. The SFR calculation results in GRFA for Lot 39-1 of 6,843.3 sq. ft. and Lot 39-2 of 7,618.7 sq. ft. Please see applicanYs statements attached. . II. BACKGROUND The Glen Lyon Subdivision, when originally planned in 1978, under SDD #4, contained a . provision that "no residential lot shall contain more than 4,200 square feet of GRFA." This provision was also included in the restrictive covenants for this subdivision, which the Town is a party to. At that time, Lots 39-1 and 39-2 were one large duplex lot, Lot 39 (2.4853 acres). On February 16, 1982, Resolution No. 10, Series of 1982, was adopted allowing an amendment to SDD #4 to allow Lot 39 to be divided into Lots 39-1 (1.043 acres) and 39-2 (1.221 acres). The lots were restricted as single-family residential lots, therefore not increasing the overall density of the development. The proposal resulted in 0.2213 acres being dedicated to the Town as part of the stream tract. The resolution restricted each lot to a maximum of 3,100 sq. ft. of GRFA and 25' in building height. 'See attached Resolution No. 10, Series of 1982 and the staff memorandum dated February 1, 1982. On July 3, 1990, SDD #4 was amended by Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1990, which removed the 4,200 sq. ft. of GRFA restriction for all "duplex" lots within the Glen Lyon Subdivision. The amendment allowed the tots to be calculated under the Primary/Secondary Residential zone district for GRFA. Lots 39-1 and 39-2 were specifically not amended by this change as these lots were single-family residential lots (see Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1990 and the staff memorandum dated June 11, 1990). In July of this year, a minor amendment to this SDD was approved allowing the development of a driveway and bridge to access the site via an easement across Lots 40 and 41. The bridge provides access for skiers to travel beneath the driveway. The applicant worked closely with the owners of Lot 40 in order to develop a plan that was acceptable to all parties impacted by the development. 2 III. ZONING ANALYSIS Listed below is the zoning analysis for Lot 39-1 and Lot 39-2. In addition, an analysis of Lot 40. and Lot 41, which are located nearest the site, have been included for comparison.

CRITERIA TO BE USED IN EVALUATING THIS PROPOSAL As stated in the zoning code, the purpose of the special development district is to: encourage flexibility and creativity in the development of land in order to promote its most appropriate use; to improve the design character and quality of new development within the town; to facilitate the adequate and economical provision of streets and utilities; to preserve the natural and scenic features of open space areas; and to further the overall goals of the community as stated in the Vail Comprehensive Plan. An approved development plan for a special - development district, in conjunction with a property's underlying zone district, shall establish the requirements for guiding development and uses of property included in the special development district." 3 , At. The following are the nine special development district criteria to be utilized by the Planning and Environmental Commission when evaluating SDD amendment proposals: A. Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment, neighborhood and adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones, identity, character, visual integrity and orientation. , No specific building or design is being requested by this amendment. Any proposed development will be reviewed in accordance with the SDD #4 ordinance and the Town's Design Guidelines. With this requested amendment, development Qn these lots will be . . consistent with development allowances on neighboring lots and with this subdivision as . a whole. While homes on these lots will be. quite large, impacts to the site and neighboring properties will only be minimally impacted. Single-family structures will be oriented within building envelopes on the properties and will be generally low on the site. There is adequate room for buffering development on these lots from neighboring lots. This property is mostly adjacent to Forest Senrice property and is only marginally adjacent to neighboring duptex lots. The applicant is providing building envelopes which protect all existing trees and prevents development on slopes greater than 30%. Staff believes the proposed modifications to the development standards will provide equal treatment to similarly situated residential lots and will not negatively effect the surrounding properties or the environment. B. Uses, activity and density which provide a compatibte, efficient and workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity. The proposal does not change the approved uses for the property. These lots will continue to support development of single-family homes. The potential intensity of development will be similar to that of adjoining lots. Staff believes that the proposal is compatible with adjacent development and provides for an efficient and workable relationship with surrounding uses. C._ Compliance with the parking and loading requirements as outlined in Chapter 18.52. The applicant is not proposing to change the parking requirements as they relate to these lots. Development on these lots will continue to be required 3 parking spaces, assuming development of structures of greater than 2,000 sq. ft. in size. D. Conformity with applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan, Town policies and Urban Design Plans. 1. This area has been platted and zoned under SDD #4 for residential development. The proposed changes do not change the use of the property. The Town of Vail Open Lands Plan, adopted by the Town, identifies these lots as private development sites. The use prescribed by zoning for these lots is consistent with the Open Lands Plan. . 4 2. The following are the applicable Land Use Plan goals and policies which relate to this prop.osal: Goal 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 permanent resident. - Goal 1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing developed areas (in-fill areas). Goal 5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in existing, platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high hazards do not exist. Goal 5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the market place demands for a full range of housing types. The staff believes that the proposed amendment to the approved development plan is in compliance with the Town's Land Use Plan. E. Identification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that affect the property on which the special development district is proposed. The property is not located in an area of natural or geologic hazard. F. Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community. The proposed application allows the same type of development currently allowed on the . site. The applicant has proposed building envelopes which respect existing trees, steep slopes, and-setbacks. The property, when divided into two lots in 1982, included the provision of land dedication for open space and stream tract. Any development proposals for the property will be reviewed by the Design Review Board and will be subject to the Town's Design Review Guidelines. Staff believes the proposal is sensitive to environmental features of the site to a greater extent than exists under the current allowances. G. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing on and off-site traffic circulation. The applicant is not proposing to change or affect this criterion with this proposal. 5 H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and preserve natural features, recreation, views and functions. The applicant has proposed building envelopes which respect existing trees, steep slopes, and setbacks. The property, when divided into two lots in 1982, included the provision of.land dedication for open space and stream tract. Any development proposals for the property will be reviewed by the Design Review Board and will be subject to the design review guidelines. The building envelopes provide adequate buffer area on the site. Staff believe.s the proposal is sensitive to environmental features of the site to a greater extent than exists under the current allowances. I. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional and efficient relationship throughout the development of the special development district. This criterion is not applicable to this development. V. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Development Department recommends that the PEC recommend approval of the applicant's request to the Town Council for a.major amendment to Special Development District No. 4, subject to the following finding: 1. That the proposed amendments to Lots 39-1 and 39-2, Glen Lyon Subdivision, within SDD #4 are consistent with the nine development criteria contained herein and are consistent with the development standards allowed on the other residential lots within this SDD. The recommendation of approval is also subject to the following conditions: 1. That the following language be placed on the development plan and included in the .ordinance for these lots: All future development will be restricted to the area within the building envelopes. The only development permitted outside the building envelopes shall be landscaping, driveways (access bridge) and retaining walls associated with driveway construction. At-grade patios (those within 5' of existing or finished grade) will be permitted to project beyond the buitding envelopes not more than ten feet (10') nor more than one-half (1/2) the distance between the building envelope and the property line, or may project not more than five feet (5) nor more than one-fourth (1/4) the minimum required dimension between buildings.

Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Re: Amendment to Application for Amendment to SDD No. 4 on behalf of Hagopian & Pennington LLC Dear pominic: This letter is in response to your letter dated October 17, 1997. As we discussed over the telephone, you do not believe that staff would support an amendment to SDD#4 that would allow Lots 39-1 and 39-2 a GRFA calculation based on two dwelling units per lot, because this would change the density of the SDD. You indicated the amount of allowable GRFA proposed in your October 17, 1997 letter is the maximum staff could reasonably support. After discussing the alternatives with Mr. Pennington, he has decided to accept your proposed changes to his application, in orcler to expedite the approval process by having staff _support of the amendment as it will- be presented to PEC. - . Enclosed please find two full size surveys of the Lots showing existing trees and setbacks, and an 8 1/2 x 11 copy of same, as you requested. My client's agreement to amend the Application as set forth in your letter is conditioned upon GRFA and building height being calCUlated exactly as set forth therein, and the Building Envelopes being as depicted in the enclosed survey. As we discussed on the telephone, he would also. like staff support of a Type II EHU for each of the lots, and he would like you to specifically provide in the ordinance that the bridge and driveway may be constructed outside the building envelope and within the setbacks. LARSEN & KOVACEVICH, P.C. Dominic F. Mauriello Town of Vail October 22, 1997 Page 2 Please call me if you have any questions. Also please let me know the time that we will be on the agenda for the PEC hearing on October 27, 1997. Very truly yours, LARSEN & KOVACEVICH, P.C. ~ CA4 1 Diane R. Larsen DRL/kes Enclosures cc: Mr. Tim Pennington STATEMENT IN SUPPORT OF APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT NO. 4 I.. INTRODUCTION Lots 39-1 and 39-2 (sometimes referred to herein as the "Lots") are Single Family Lots in Glen Lyon Subdivision that are treated significantly differently than other Single Family Lots . in the Town with respect to Gross Residential Floor Area ("GRFA") and building height limitation. Applicant, Hagopian & Pennington LLC, seeks equal treatment with other Town of Vail Single Family Lots. Applicant is requesting approval of an amendment to SDD No. 4 to provide that GRFA and building height limitations for Lots 39-1 and 39-2 be calculated pursuant to the requirements of the Single Family (SFR) Zone District, Sections 18.10.080 and 18.10.090 of the Town of Vail Zoning Code. II. BACKGROUND OF EXISTING GRFA AND HEIGHT LIMITATIONS The protective covenants for Glen Lyon Subdivision were recorded in April, 1978. At that time, Lots 39-1 and 39-2 were combined in a single lot, designated Lot 39. Lot 39 consisted of 2.4853 acres and was the largest residential lot in Glen Lyon. From the inception, the protective Covenants of Glen Lyon (the "Glen Lyon Covenants") contained the following restriction: "No residential lot shall conta'in more than 4200 square feet of GRFA. " Andy Norris, the developer of Glen Lyon Subdivision, explains in a letter to Dominic Mauriello dated September 9, 1997, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, that when he developed Glen Lyon Subdivision, "there was considerable looseness in the Town's definition of GRFA. " He voluntarily restricted each lot to 4200 square feet of GRFA, even though the ordinance governing SDD No. 4 provided that allowable GRFA on any lot in Glen Lyon was governed by a formula based on lot size, which would have allowed more GRFA in many cases. SDD No. _ 4 was thereafter amended to match the more restrictive 4200 square foot GRFA restriction of the Cilen Lyon Covenants. In 1982, Mr. Norris applied for an amendment to SDD No. 4 to resubdivide Lot 39 into two Single Family Lots. Resolution Number 10, Series of 1982 ("Resolution No. 10"), subdividing Lot 39 into two Single Family Lots, was approved by Town Council on February 16, 1982. Resolution No. 10 provides the maximum height for buildings on the two Lots is limited to 25 feet and the maximum allowable GRFA is 3,100 square feet for each Lot. Resolution No. 10 states in the "Recitals" that the lot "possesses characteristics making it appropriate for two single family structures of a high quality, low rise nature" and that "the owner of Lot 39 and the developer of Glen Lyon Subdivision agreed to the conditions and limitations placed upon the division of Lot 39 into two separate lots." Except for the statement . that the developer of Glen Lyon agreed to the conditions and limitations, there is no explanation in Resolution No. 10 which gives insight to the reasons for such conditions and limitations. Therefore, Applicant researched the Town files and consulted with Mr. Norris to see if there was a legitimate reason to restrict GRFA and height. The Town's files on SDD No. 4 provides helpful information regarding the history of the subdivision of Lot 39 into two lots and the reason for the severe restrictions on GRFA and height set forth in Resolution No. 10. .A staff inemorandum to PEC dated February 1, 1982, shortly before Resolution No. 10 was passed, states that Mr. Norris proposed the limitations. . Mr. Norris' letter confirms that the GRFA limitation of 3100 square feet on each of the resubdivided lots was established bv him in consultation with Town staff "to be consistent with the existing more restrictive Glen Lyon CC&R's. " Minutes from the PEC hearing of February , 8, 1982 show that Mr. Nonis requested 3100 square feet of GRFA, and that the limitation on GRFA was not a Town-imposed restriction. Mr. Norris- also voluntarily proposed an extensive landscaping plan to aid in screening the Lots from view, which has been implemented by the present owner. . In May, 1990, the Glen Lyon Covenants were amended by the written consent of more than 75 % of the owners of the Glen Lyon Subdivision, as required under such covenants. The sole purpose of the 1990 amendment to the Glen Lyon Covenants (the "Amendment") was to delete the more restrictive Glen Lyon GRFA restriction, thus allowing the then more-liberal Town of Vail GRFA restrictions to govem all lots within Glen Lyon Subdivision. In fact, Lots 39-1 and 39-2 (then designated 39 (A) and 39 (B)) are specifically identified in the Amendment as lots to which the GRFA increase applies. Thus, the Glen Lyon home owners' intent to increase the GRFA allowable to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 is clear. In May, 1990, shortly after the Glen Lyon Covenants were amended, property owners who had voted to pass the Covenants Amendment proposed an amendment to the ordinance governing SDD No. 4 to delete the more restrictive Glen Lyon GRFA restriction that was still reflected in said ordinance. A letter in the Town's files dated May 11, 1990 which was submitted with the application to amend SDD No. 4 explains that as a result of the Town of Vail's adoption of the GRFA standards in the Glen Lyon Covenants, Glen Lyon property owners were negatively impacted in relation to other similarly situated property owners in Vail. The property owners were requesting parity in the Glen Lyon GRFA standards with the rest of the Town. A staff inemorandum to the -Planning and Environmental Commission dated June 11, 1990 confirms the GRFA restriction was initiated by the developer, with unintended negative effects on Glen Lyon lots. It provides in pertinent part: ...At the time that SDD #4 was adopted, the GRFA definition was in the process of revision. By putting a maximum GRFA in the density requirement for the SDD, the developer's intent was to lock in a specified GRFA allowed for the lots. This was intended to protect against future changes in the interpretations of GRFA. The ceiling, however, became a restriction for the Glen Lyon property owners, as the GRFA requirements did not become more restrictive (as the developer had anticipated). Jim Rubin, the Community Development Department director at the time of the original adoption, confirms that the GRFA maximum was initiated by the developer to guarantee the GRFA for Glen Lyon lots... 2 Thus, the Town's files on SDD No. 4 show that Mr. Norris proposed the GRFA maxunum, but that the unanticipated effect was not fair to Glen Lyon residents compared to other Town of Vail property owners. The Glen Lyon homeowners' proposed amendment to SDD No.4 was passed by Town Council on July 3, 1990, as Ordinance No. 20, Series of.1990 ("Ordinance No. 20") eliminating the Glen Lyon GRFA covenant as to duplex lots, but without mention of Lots 39-1 and 39-2. Since there is nothing in the Town's file to justify treating Lots 39-1 and 39-2 differently - thanother lots zoned Single Family, why was the allowable GRFA on Lots 39-1 and 39-2 not specifically amended in 1990 to be govemed by Town standards, as the other Glen Lyon residential lots were? Mr. Norris' letter is helpful in answering this question. His letter states there were several issues unique to Lots 39-1 and 39-2, but unrelated to GRFA or building . height, that the Town staff wanted resolved before the Lots would be brought into conformity with Town of Vail SFR Zone District requirements. For example, portions of the access road to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 encroached on Forest Service land, Vail Associates had raised concerns about an on-grade skier crossing that intersected the proposed driveway, and certain utiliry easements needed to be vacated. The Town staff requested that all these matters be resolved before the GRFA applicable to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 be amended. Applicant has recently completed resolution of all these matters, the last one being the approval by the Town of the construction of a skier underpass. Applicant now requests that SDD No. 4 be amended to treat Lots 39-1 and 39-2 the same as all other lots in the Town of Vail zoned Single Family. Applicant and Mr. Norris believe that the process that was begun in 1990 to have all Glen Lyon lots treated the same as other similarly-zoned lots within the Town, should be automatic; based on the recent resolution of the issues formerly affecting Lots 39-1 and 39-2. Nonetheless, if the Town desires to re-examine the GRFA and height limitations, the facts that support the change in GRFA and height to match the Town Zoning Code, are compelling. Presently, Lots 39-1 and 39-2 are 1.043 and 1.221 acres, respectively. (Lot 39 as originally platted consisted of 2.4853 acres, but a portion of Lot 39 along Gore Creek was deeded to the Town when Lot 39 was resubdivided into Lots 39-1 and 39-2.) They are still the two largest lots in Glen Lyon, and are therefore large enough to support additional GRFA, as _ calculated under Section 18.10.090 of the Zoning Code: The marginal increases in GRFA, - when compared to neighboring structures such as Liftside Condominiums and Glen Lyon Office Building, are insignificant. Lots 39-1 and 39-2 are a significant distance from South Frontage Road, compared to both Liftside Condominiums and Glen Lyon Office Building, which are directly on South Frontage Road. Many Spruce and Lodge Pole Pine trees were planted by Applicant, which have already grown to significant heights, and will continue to grow and screen more fully any residence to be built on the Lots. The limitations to low-rise, 3100 square foot residences on each lot is simply not justifiable considering the neighboring structures, the size of the Lots, the landscaping and the current Town Code governing Single Family homes. 3 III. LEGAL JUSTIFICATION FOR AMENDMENT Town Code Section 18.40.090 governing Special Development Districts provides: ...before the Town Council approves development standards that deviate from the underlying zone district, it should be determined that such deviation provides benefits to the Town that outweigh the adverse effects of such deviation. This . determination is to be made based on evaluation of the proposed. Special Development District's compliance with the design criteria outlined in Section 18.40.080. The basic premise of Section 18.40.090 is that development standards for a lot in a Special Development District should comply with the underlying zone district and that any deviation therefrom should not be taken lightly. It follows that since Lots 39-1 and 39-2 are Single Family Lots, they should be treated the same as other Single Family Lots. Among the criteria in Section 18.40.080 that must be considered in determining the appropriate standards to apply to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 are "design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment, neighborhood and adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones, identity, character, visual integrity and orientation. " Applicant contends that any residence to be built on Lots 39-1 or 39-2 that complies with the square footage calculation under Town SFR Zone District requirements will be compatible with the immediate neighborhood and adjacent properties. As discussed above, neighboring property owners who were required to be notified of this application for amendment include Liftside Condominiums, a relatively recent addition to SDD No. 4, and Glen Lyon Office Building. Both are large structures and are located closer to South Frontage Road than would be any residences to be built on Lots 39-1 and 39-2. The visual impact of any residence to be built on Lots.39-1 and 39-2 under SFR Zone district requirements will be substantially less than the visual iixlpact of such existing structures, especially with the large trees already growing on L;ots 39-1 and 39-2. Furthermore, any residence proposed,to be built on either lot will also be subject to Design Keview Board sciutiny, which is sufficient to ensure quality, site- appropriate residences. Under Colorado law, the PEC and Town Council must not act arbitrarily or capriciously in exercising their discretion in evaluating the criteria set forth in the Zoning Code. See Sellon v. Manitou Springs, 745 P.2d 229 (Colo. 1987). With no rational basis in the file for discriminating against Lots 39-1 and 39-2 when compared to other Single Family Lots within the Town, to deny this application would seem to be arbitrary and capricious, and, therefore, void under Colorado law. 4 IV. CONCLUSION Lots 39-1 and 39-2 have different GRFA and height restrictions applied to them than other Single Family Lots within the Town of Vail for reasons that are no longer justifiable. In . 1990, the Glen Lyon Homeowners requested that the lots within Glen Lyon be treated the same as all other lots within the Town, which request was granted by Town Council with regard to all Glen Lyon lots except Lots 39-1 and 39-2. Due to other issues unique to those two lots, GRFA and height limitations for the Lots have continued to be governed by Resolutiorx 10 from 1982, which were self-imposed by the developer of Glen Lyon and the then-owner of the Lots. Town files indicate the restrictions were proposed by Mr. Norris, and have not been removed ' due to other issues unrelated to GRFA and height. With the resolution of the issues concerning the access road and the vacation of easements, and, most recently, the approval by the Town of a skier unde=pass separating vehicles from skiers, there is no rational basis for continuing the restrictions in Resolution No. 10. Town Code requires that development standards not deviate from the underlying Zone District unless the deviation provides benefits to the Town that outweigh the adverse effects of the deviation. There appear to be no benefits to the Town that outweigh the adverse effects of continuing the severe GRFA and height restrictions now imposed on the Lots. Lots 39-1 and 39-2 are two of the largest lots in Glen Lyon, are zoned Single Family, and are located near two very large structures, Liftside Condominiums and Glen Lyon Office Building. The visual impact of Single Family residences built in compliance with SFR Zone District GRFA and height standards will be negligible compared to the visual impact of those two neighboring structures. Applicant's Single Family Lots should be treated the same as other Single Family Lots in tYie Town, and should be governed by Sections 18.10.080 and 18.10.090 of the Town Code with regard to GRFA and building height. To deny this application to remove unnecessary restrictions on the Lots in order to treat them the same as other Single Family Lots would be arbitrary and capricious. 5 Andrew D.

Mauriello, AICP Depa.rtment of Community Development Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, Colorado 81657 Re: Glen Lyon Subdivision - Lots 39-1/39-2 Dear pominic; I was the developer of the Glen Lyon Subdivision and was therefore responsible for the project's planning, permitting, construction and sales. Development controls for the project were established by the recorded plat and the Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions (CC&R's). An important element of the CC&Rs were limitations on the amount of Gross Residential F1oor Area (GRFA), as defined by the Town of Vail zoning reguladons, that could be constructed on each loL At the time it was considered .important to establish GRFA standards because there was considerable "looseness" in the Town's definition of GRFA. Glen Lyon's CC&R's were more restrictive. In 1989, the Town approved the division of Lot 39 into two lots. The approval established Lot 39-1 and 39-2 as a minor development plan. Each lot was limited to a single family home and the GRFA limitations were established by me in consultation with Town staff to be consistent with the existina Glen Lyon CC&R's. A minor development plan was developed that included establishing building envelopes and a landscape plan. Following the Town's approval, significant components of the landscape plan were implemented by the owner. These included earthwork and tree planting for screening. In 1990, the Town made refinements and clarifications to its definition of GRFA. Town council was interested in creating a uniform standard for all residential lots. The Glen Lyon property owners supported this proposal and requested that I conduct an election by Glen Lyon property owners to seek approval to amend the CC&R's to bring Glen Lyon's . GRFA standards into compliance with the Town's standards. The amendment passed and EXHIBIT A Dominic F. Mauriello, AICP . Department of Community Development Town of Vail September 9, 1997 Paae 2 the GREA revision approved. The amendment applied to all Glen Lyon lots, including Lots 39-1 and39-2. However, since Glen Lyon Subdivision is in Special Development - District No. 4, Town approval was required for any change in GREA. . A proposed amendment to SDD No. 4 was submitted to the Town to provide that Town GREA standards would apply [o all Glen Lyon lots. By this time it had been discovered that portions of the access road to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 encroached on Forest Service land and that the planned on-grade skier crossing with the driveway would be unacceptable to Vail ?.svO^i1GleS. •ail AJSVC1aleS ir.sisted that a separaied grade crossing be Consnxtepd. Also, utility easements across Lot 39 needed to be vacated. Town staff requested that no change be made in the GREA standards applicable to Lots 39-1 and 39-2 until all such issues surrounding the Lots were resolved. It has required several years to resolve all of these requirements, the final one being approval of the skier undecpass. It has always been my understanding and agreement with the Town that once all the issues suROUnding Lots 39-1 and 39-2 had been resolved, the lo[s would be brougtit into conformity with the Town of Vail's then current development standards for residential lots.

Rodney E. ~Slifer, r yor ~ ATTEST: Colleen Kline, Town Clerk . -1, htGhiORANDUM T0: Planning and Environmental Commission , FRObt: Department of Community Development/Peter Patten DATE: February 1., 1982 SUBJECT: Two amendment requests for Special Development District 4-- • Cascade Viilage/Glen Lyon. Applicant: Andy Norris Andy Norris is requesting two amendments to Special Development District 4. One is,for area A of the District-Cascade Village, to allow the parking structure/ athletic club building to encroach into the exterior property line setback. I'he second request is to allow Lot 39 of Glen Lyon Subdivision (Area C), an existing 2.48 acre primary/secondary lot to be resubdivided.into two single family lots. I. AMCNDbiENT REGARDING PARKING STRUCTURC SETBACK A. TI-fE REQUES'I' 1'he request is to allow the relaxation of Sectioiis 18.46.100 Setbacks Wlt}1 rebard only to this building and 18,46.170 Parking of SDD4 so that the builcli.ng contailiing the parking structure and athletic club cati be constructed to within 2 feet of the norttiern property line, abuttiiig the Sotitll Frontage Road, rat}ier t}lan the required 20 feet. The Parking section dictates that no parking shall be located in any front setback area. T'lie proposal is for wlderground parking to be so located. The reason for this request at this time is an earlier oversight in the original Master Plan for Cascade Village. ~ _ B. . BACKGROUND T}i.e original-Master Plan was approyed as a basic guide for p.lacement bf each structure, but was not a detailed design for each individual building. Indeed, minor adjustments in the placing of eac}i structure naturally has occurred at the Design Review Board level. In terms of the parking garage and athletic club, the master plan simply did not allow for adequate room for a full size viable tennis court facility with regard to the north-south dimensions as restricted by the existing road. As the Cascade Village project progresses according to the adopted Master Plan and regulations contained in SDD4, each building site is restricted by such givens as buildings both existing and planned, roads, utility locations, etc. This piece of the "puzzle"--the parking structure and athletic club--has simply been squeezed into the exterior property setback by some of these restrictions, a situation not envisioned, of course., in the 1979 Master Plan. Cascadc Villabc -2- 211182 • C. IMPACTS Or TI-fE PROPOSAL Tlle building is proposed to be located SO feet f.rom the existing pavemcnt of tlie South Frolitage Road, except where the new right turn lane will be located, the structure will be 45 feet away from the pavement. As one travels west on the road the grade changes so that one experiences less and less of the building impact the further west oile gets. I'he building is 12 feet high at eave line oil the north elevation wrt}i approxi-, . mately a 6 in 12 roof pitch. The roof material proposed is a gray metal similar to the Millrace Condominium roofs. No unsolvable problems exist with regard to utility locations. A substantial landscaping proposal - with a large amount of evergreen trees is proposed for the area between the buildiilg and the South Frontage Road. It is hig}ily unlikely that _ the South Frontage Road will be expanded to four lanes due to physical (grade on the side of the road) and traffic amount factors. TIZe conclusion from the above facts indicate no significaitt negative factors in moving the building close to the property line. Maintaining 50 feet from the road is a sufficient "breatliing" distance for snow removal, minor road improvements (widen shoulders) and visual proximity. A physical hardship exists in the givens of mandatory design criteria (tennis courts) and the existing road aiid adjacent buildinbs. RLCObMENDA1'I ON , T}ie Uepartment of Community Development recommeilds approval of the amendment to Sdd4 allowing the parking structure/athletic club to encroac}i 18 feet into the north property setback and to qualify the requirement of no parking in the front setback to apply to parking other than entirely undergrowid. The staff feels that there are minimum impacts of this amendment due to the large distance to the road surfa,ce. The building is designed to mitigate visual impacts on the nort}i side, and the landscaping should provide a visual screen, further improving the aesthetics of the site"development. tiVe akree that the setUack exceptioti should be made only for this building, with the provision that other underground parkiiig could be located within required exterior setUack areas, subject to Design Review Board approval. II. 'DIVZSION OF LOT 39,.GLEN LYON SUBDIVISION - . A. Tf-iE. REQUEST Lot 39 of Glen Lyon Subdivision (Area;.C of SDD4) was created with the original appxoval of SDD 4. The duplex lots are developed basically in accordance with primary/secondary development regulations. The lot currently contains 2.48 acres of total site area., and the proposed division would easily meet the requirement in the Single Family District of contain- ing 12,500 square feet of buildable site area. Proposed is to have two lots, one of .888 acre and one of 1.48 acres, while dedicating to the town .115 acre of land along Gore Creek. The stream tract proposed to be dedicated is adjacent to property already owned by the town through a previous dedication. ' Cascadc Villagc -3- 2/1/52 Mr. Norris is proposing and will commit to a master plan for t}ie develop- ment on these two lots. He proposes two low-rise (1 to 2 story) luxury' single family homes with exten.sive landscaping_ and water features. 1-Ie requests that each house be allowed 3100 square feet of Gross Residential . Floor Area and will restrict the houses to a 25 foot height limitation. B, IMPACTS OF REQUEST Currently, the lot could be developed into a duplex with a maximum floor area of 4200 square feet. This is the covenant restriction of w}iich the town is a co-signator, and consequently, enforcer. The proposal Would increase the allowable GRFA by 2000 square feet to 6200 square `ffeet total. Visually, the site is quite open and contains only one tree, a large evergreen lying very close to the proposed common lot line of the two new lots. Thus, any development on the site will be readily seen by passersby on the South Frontage Road and I-70. Dividing the lot and accepting the developmeTit plan allows two separated structures of a ' low profile nature, but covering more of the site than under present restrictions. Thc 25 foot height limitation reduces by approximately ten feet the allowable height of thc structures which could be built under current regulations. Tlie development plan reflects a very high quality design of structures arid their surroundinb grounds, and would assure such high quality if the amendment is approved. Access for the new easterly lot would be provided by an access easement on the northern side of lot 1. I'he access drive would be heavily planted on the north side to reduce the visual impact from the north. In summary, the result-of approval of the requested amendment is that - development of a Targer portion of the site would occur, but the development - would be of a guaranteed high quality with minimal negative visual impact. C . ,,'RECOh1MENDATION The Department of.Community Development recommends approval of the proposed division of Lot 39 into two single family lots with the condition that each residence be restricted to 2100 square feet of GRFA. {Ve feel positive about the development plan proposed, but we consider an increase of GRFA of 2000 square feet to be excessive and a grant of special privilege. There is no special circumstance or hardship involved in the request for the extra GRFA, and we feel that we must be consistent in judging such requests. Thus, we recommend approval of the amendment requested with a revised development plan reflecting a maximum GRFA for each residence of 2100 square feet, ~ ORDINANCE N0.20 _ Series of 1990 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 10, SERIES OF 1990, SPECIAL DEVEIAPMENT DISTRICT NO. 9, SECTION 18.46.100 C, DENSITY FLOOR AREA, 11F2EA C GLEN LYON DUPLEX LOTS TO PROVIDi FOR GROSS RESIDENTIAL FLOOR AREA TO BE CALCULATED PER THE REQUIRE!•fENT . •OF THE PRIMARY/SECONDARY ZONE DISTRICT SECTION 18.13.080 DEPISITY CONTROL; AND SETTING FORTFi DETAILS IN REGARD THERETO.

DATE: June 11, 1990 SUBJECT:A major amendment to Special Development District No. ' 4-Cascade Village, Area C, Section 18.46.100, Paragraph C: deletion of the following sentence "No residential lot shall contain more than 4200 square feet of GRFA ' per the Glen Lyon subdivision covenants", which amends the GRFA requirement to conform to the Primary/Secondary zone district, Section 18.13.080, . Density Control. Applicant: Greg Amsden for 75% of the property owners. I. DESCRIPTION OF THE RE4UEST The applicant is requesting a major amendment to Special Development District No. 4, Cascade Village. The request is to delete the requirement which states "No residential Lot shall contain more than 4200 sq. ft. of GRFA per the Glen Lyon Subdivision covenants." The amended code will read "GRFA shall be calculated for each lot per Section 18.13.080, Density Control A and B for the primary/secondary district of the Town of Vail Municipal Code. ;With the ~ delP-~nn nf this restriction the-dQnsitv controls or duplex Lots 1-38 and 40-52 of Area C will be qoverned by Section 18.13.080 of the Vail Municipal Code. Because of the lot sizes, the amendment will allow 40 of the 51 duplex lots to increase their GRFA over what is currently allowed by the SDD No. 4 density requirements. However, these lots will not be granted more than what is allowed under the Town's density control for Primary/Secondary lots. The _ applicant is not requesting any other changes to the development standards. - II. BACKGROUND At the time that SDD #4 was adopted, the GRFA definition was in the process of revision. By putting a maximum GRFA in the density requirement for the SDD, the developer's intent was to lock in a specified GRFA allowed for the lots. This was intended to protect against future changes in the interpretations of GRFA. The ceiling, however, became a restriction for the Glen Lyon property owners, as the GRFA requirements did not become more restrictive (as the developer had anticipated). Jim Rubin, the Community Development Department director at the time of the original adoption, confirms that the GRFA maximum was initiated by the developer to guarantee the GRFA for Glen Lyon lots. 1 , The applicant has received signatures from 76.07% of the property owners approving the change in the GRFA requirement. The amendment will not include Lot 53 (Coldstream). The amendment will only affect duplex lots located in this Area C. _ ~Also the amendmen wi li no ; ne4i 1.do T.nt-q 191 and 3911,. Under resolutiom- #i0,- Series of 1982, these lots~aer.e - ~ subdivided and zoned Sinale Family.ResidPnt,ial~w;.th-a-heiqht restriction of 25 feet and a maximum -GRFA of 3100 ;squar•e'- - ' feet per lot. III. SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT CRITERIA Section 18.40.080 of the zoning code sets forth the following design criteria to be used in evaluating the merits of a Special Development District. It.is the burden of the applicant to demonstrate that submittal material and the proposed development plan comply with each of the following standards or demonstrate that one or more are not applicable or that a practical solution consistent with the public interest has been achieved. A. DesiQn compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment, neighborhood and adiacent properties relative to architectural desian scale bulk buildinq heiqht, buffer zones, identity, character, visual inteqrity and orientation. The granting of the request will allow for an increase of the allowable GRFA for many of the duplex lots located in the Glen Lyon Subdivision. Currently the lots are regulated by the density requirements for Primary/Secondary zoning with a maximum allowable GRFA _-of 4200 square feet. 40 lots in Glen Lyon are restricted by this maximum. It,is.important to recognize that by deleting the maximum for GRFA, they will only be allowed to build what is allowed under Section 18.13.080 which regulates the GRFA on all Primary/Secondary lots. The mass and bulk of the buildings will increase in comparison to what would be allowed with the 4200 sq. ft. of GRFA maximum due to the increase in allowable GRFA. B. Uses, activitv and density which provide a compatible efficient and workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity. _ The request will have no effect on the uses or activities of the area. The application will have no effect on the number of units in the subdivision. It 2 will increase the mass and bulk of the buildings because the allowable GRFA will be increased. The following is a chart depicting the range of . additional GRFA that would be allowed for a number of lots: # of Lots Additional GRFA 11 . 0 " 18 1-250 sq. ft. . 10 250-500 sq. ft. - - 5 500-750 sq. ft. 6 750+ sq. ft. C., Compliance with parkinq and loadina requirements as outlined in Chapter 18.52. _ Off-street parking shall be provided as stated in the SDD Ordinance. This would require dwelling units with _ up to 2,000 square feet of GRFA to provide 2 parking spaces, and dwelling units over 2,000 square feet to provide 2.5 spaces per unit. These are the standard Town of Vail parking requirements. D. Conformitv with applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan. Town policies and Urban Desian Plans. The application does not request any additional GRFA other than that which is allowed on other comparable Primary/Secondary lots in the Town of Vail. There are no planning studies that relate directly to this request. E.- Identification and mitigation of natural and/or qeoloctic hazarcls that affect the property on which the special development district is proposed. Geologic hazards will be identified and mitigated as required by Section 18.69 Hazard Regulations of the Town of Vail Municipal Code. F. Site plan, buildinQ design and location and open space provisions designed to produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community. The only element of the above criteria that will be affected by this request is building design. By 3 ti ~ deleting the 4200 square foot maximum, the mass and bulk will be increased over what is currently allowed in the subdivision. However, the mass and bulk of the structures will be no more than what is allowed on other comparable Primary/Secondary lots in other areas. of Vail. ' G. A circulation system desiqned for both vehicles and pedetrians addressing on and off-site traffic circulation. There will be no change to the circulation system. Since there will be no increase in density, there are . no expected increases in use that would require a change to the circulation system. H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and preserve natural features recreation, views and functions.

Phasina plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional and efficient relationship throuahout the development of the special development district. There will be no effect on the phasing or subdivision plan. 23 of the 50 lots involved have either existing homes or are under construction. No additional lots are proposed with this application. . IV. ' DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS All devel'opment standards for SDD# 4 are very site specific. For Area C, development standards including height, setbacks, site coverage, parking and landscaping are in accordance with the requirements for the Primary/Secondary zone district. This request would allow the Area C density control (GRFA) to be in accordance with Section 18.13.080 of the Vail Municipal Code. 4 M 4 V. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the request to delete the statement that "No residential lot shall contain more than 4200 square feet of GRFA per the Glen Lyon Subdivision covenants" as stated in Section 18.76.100 of SDD #4 Ordinance #10, Series of 1990 as applicable to Lots 1-38 and 40-52. The staff feels that this restriction was used as a means of guaranteeing GRFA to the Glen Lyon lots and instead, the maximum became a restriction. We feel that the - deletion of the maximum will have no negative impacts on the surrounding properties. The amendment will allow the above lots to be controlled under the density requirements that are used for all other Primary/Secondary lots. There will be no chan e in the densit re irements for Lots 39I an ~ 39II hich are aentrollad bv Reso u ion No. 10, Series of 1982. 5 ~y ~ ~ 1iL11 1 ...llLr` \ - ~ 2 54 G ! ` .

Frontage Rd. . Vail, Colorado 81657 Dear Shelley, In accordance with Paragraph #18 of the Protective Covenants of Glen Lyon Subdivision, 75% of the property owners of the privately-owned land included within the boundaries of Glen Lyon have given their written consent to amend the said Covenants (Recorded 5/2/90 in Book 528, Page 154. A copy of recorded document is attached). The amendment deletes Paragraph #17 of the covenants. This paragraph establis~ed a ceiling of 4200 square feet on each lot within the subdzvision. It was the developer's intent at time of recording the original covenants to "lock in" a specified amount of GRFA to protect agains-t any future downward trends in interpretations of GRFA. As it turned out, this limitation actually had a negative effect on allowable GRFA in relation to other property ocaners within the Vail Valley. The implementation of this ceiling on GRFA into the Speci-al Development District and Town of Vail Ordinances was done to accomodate the Protective Covenants and pyoperty ocvners of Glen Lyon. The applicant asks the Planning and Environmental Commission and Town Council to consider and approve the following admendment to the existing Special Development District No. 4, Area C, as . defi-'n-ed in Ordinance No. 10, Series of 1990, Secti.on 18.46.100, Paragraph C: Deletion of the following sentence: "No residential lot shall contain more than 4200 square feet of GRFA per the Glen Lyon subdivision covenants". If any members of the Planning and Environment Commission or the Town Council have any questions regarding the proposed amendment, please contact Greg Amsden at 476-7990 or Andy Norris at 476- 6602.

Sybill Navas, Mayor-Pro Tem AT-TEST: Lori Aker, Acting Town Clerk READ AND APPROVED ON SECOND READING AND ORDERED PUBLISHED in full this 4th day of November, 1997. Robert W. Armour, Mayor ATTEST: Lori Aker, Acting Town Clerk 3 Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1997 u ~y TOWN OF VAIL Office of the Town Manager 75 South Frontage Road Yail, Colorado 81657 970-479-2105/Fax 970-479-2157 MEMORANDUM TM TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Bob McLaurin Town Manager DATE: October 31, 1997 RE: Town Manager's Report 1998 Budget At your October 21 st Council meeting, you approved the 1998 budget on first reading. Since then, there have been two changes proposed to the general fund. All of the proposed additional funding would be taken from the 1998 fund balance. The first change involves increasing the funding of special events by $45,000, an action you authorized at the October 28th work session. This expenditure will fund the two additional special events; AVP Pro Tour and the Triple Crown Sports 3-on-3 Soccer Shootout, as previously proposed by the VVTCB and the Vail Village Merchant Association. The second modification to the general fund involves increasing the Art In Public Places budget by $20,000. Ten thousand would be used to support ongoing maintenance of existing public art (e.g., Children's Fountain) . The second half of this appropriation would be used to fund public education and several AIPP programs. These funds were requested by the AIPP coordinator and AIPP board, but I neglected to include them in the original budget. I believe these efforts are important to the town public art program and feel they should be funded. I apologize for not including them in the original budget. We have scheduled some time at Tuesday's work session to review these proposed changes to the budget prior to the second reading. If you have questions prior to the meeting, please give me a call. There is one additional item which will need to be addressed at the Council Retreat following our municipal election November 18th, but this has not been included in the 1998 budget. This issue is the funding of our ongoing efforts to attract and retain world-class employees who , exceed customer expectations. As Tony O'Rourke discussed last week, continual improvement of an organization's employees is critical to our success as a resort community. Cow01 RECYCLED PAPER As you recall several months ago, the Council authorized an additional $30,000. expenditure from the manager's contingency to fund organizational development training. We are currently conducting these training sessions with all full time TOV employees. Although we will give you a complete update in the next few weeks, the crux of this effort is to improve the personal and professional effectiveness of each of our employees and to improve the effectiveness of the town organization overall. A significant portion of the work-to-date focuses on the power of personal choice. Some employee testimonials are attached to illustrate the powerful impact the training has already had. Because this work is so important to our future success, I will be asking you to adopt this effort as a critical strategy during our upcoming retreat. From there, I will propose we develop an action plan and implementation plan for 1998. Pathways to Performance TOV Employee Reaction (Excerpts fi°om the November Talk of the Town) Many of us believe we do an exceptional job in serving our external customers. However, most of us have said there's room for improvement with our internal functions, including communication, teamwork, decision-making, accountability and recognition. But don't look for any immediate improvement in these areas--unless you, as an employee, are willing to become involved. Involvement in this case, means using the tools and resources provided to us through the "Pathways to Performance" personal development training with Scott Spann. As of Oct. 17, more than 40 employees-- the executive team and division heads--had completed the sessions. On Nov. 6-7, Nov. 10-11 and Nov. 13-14, the remainder of our full-time employees are scheduled to share the same experiences. Will it make a difference? Looks like it already has. Here's what some of us are saying about the training's impact: • "My eyes have been opened wider with the issue of respect for individuals. I've already noticed a greater amount of respect among the group." Sally Lorton • "It helped clarify where we are at and where we want to go as an organization. The training helped me see that other TOV departments are dealing with many of the same issues and problems as my department. It helped build relationships with managers from other departments." Jim Applegate • "The training helped clarify my professional mission and helped me focus on why I want to come to work every day." Steve Thompson • "The training put me back in touch with the notion that WE have the ability to choose how we react to any stimulus." Jeff Layman • "It has helped me recognize my personal and professional purpose in life. In clearly identifying these life defining goals, it assists in giving clarity to how I perform on a day- to-day basis. For me, it is important to recognize what stands in the way of achieving my goals and how I have control over removing these roadblocks." Tom Moorhead • "Going through the training confirmed my belief that there is very little difference in how we handle our work life and personal life. Having the same basic human values in everything we do, whether work or play, is essential. I also kept with me the fact that I can make a difference, whether it's just in my attitude or the attitudes of the people I come in contact with--not accepting cynicism because as a whole we do have a good organization with wonderful people who care. I also realize that not everyone will agree with my comments, but it's their choice how they spend their time here. I choose to make the most of it." Susie Hervert • "I have already seen an improvement in communication."

LT D •Skicr's TrrJitionTuesday, October 21, 1997 Vail Town Council Town of Vail 75 S Frontage Road Vail, Colorado 81657 To the Vail Town Council, The purpose of this letter is to make clear that Gorsuch Ltd. is not in support of the position of the Vail Village Merchant Associations proposal to reallocate a portion ($109,000) of the funds collected from the business license fee's to itself instead of going to the Vail Valley Marketing Board. The intention of the Vail Village Merchant Association is to use these funds to promote the Vail Village exclusively through special events, marketing brochures, training seminars etc. Philosophically we don't agree that the merchant association has the expertise to perform this function. These funds have gone to the Marketing board for the purpose of promoting valley wide tourism. If we start to cut back on the funds to promote the vail valley, we can have all the special events in the world but no one to come to them. We need to continue to support and work with the Vail Valley Tourism & Convention Bureau as well as the Marketing Board, who have the expertise, and lobby our concerns regarding the promotion of the Vail Village. To be at opposing ends is not the way to accomplish this. Sincere Jeff Gorsuch 263 E. Gore Creek Drive, Vail Colorado 81657 970/476-2880 Fax 970/476-4323 Printed by Pam Brandmeyer 10/30/97 8:33am ------------------------------~XJw'" / From: Pam Brandmeyer To: EVERYONE GROUP Subject: HOLLY UPDATE ---------------------------------------L~~v ===NOTE====------=====10/30/97==8:30am= Holly had an elective surgery last night (went in at 7:30 P.M.) to remove her thyroid + 1(of 4) parathyroid glands. I was fortunate to be in Denver for an eye appointment yesterday afternoon and was able to track her down at St. Anthony's. She was her "usual" heroic self - and that attitude and perseverence is what will EVENTUALLY get Holly throuqh all this ugliness. The surgery was expected to take up to 3 hours but took just an hour and 15 minutes. Good news. The cancer was completely contained within those two glands - additional good news. Her physician, Dr. Mosea, who also performed the double mastectomy a couple years ago, believes he got everything and that this tumor had been there at least as long as the tumor in her lung. She had a good night last night and when I called this A.M. - was consuming that orange Kool-aid stuff to prepare for a CAT scan around 10 this morning. Holly is doing well - I know this is discouraging and may be seen as a major setback for those of you who have recently seen or talked w/Holly and have believed she was getting healthier. She is and will be. But she still has one heck of a fight on her hands. With our event this coming Saturday evening, I want to let you know you I believe you should in no way hesitate to let Holly's supporters know that she's had an additional surgery. Her doctor believes she will be well enough to travel to Germany on the 18th - but I will also keep you up-to-speed on what today's pictures reveal. Should there be revelations of a negative nature - I believe Holly has already indicated she would re-consider the protocol she wishes to pursue, e.g., the stem cell rescue at the University of Colorado Medical Center. We'll see what the day brings - pray for Holly.

As an employer of 35 people, many of whom live in the western reaches of our valley, and have parked in the soccer field for years, I am discouraged that your decision ignores these very people who make our community and our resort work so well. The community and the Resort Company rely on its work force. We have all seen the devastating effect that a shortage of labor can cause, yet your plan pushes hundreds of village employees further from their jobs and makes getting to work even more inconvenient. Isn't it time we realize that our high end customers won't continue to visit Vail if we don't have a friendly, willing work force to provide services for them? It is personally disappointing that a 33-year-old, not-for-profit, community based, kids organization like ours will likely lose experienced and valued employees who are tired of being perceived as second class citizens. I urge you to reconsider your decision on this matter.

" PROCESS; Key representatives of community groups were identified and sent written invitations to participate in the Vail Valley Arts Council (WAC) Strategic Planning Process. 95 packets of information went out to the community with information on the WAC history, current programs and future goals. Five morning or evening sessions were held, each two hours, at which facilitator P.O. aoX 1153 Frances Chaves led members of the Vail Valley community through a discussion of key issues Vail, Colorado impacting eh future of the Vail Valley, an assessment of the Arts Council's strengths, public perception of the council, future challenges facing, the council and resources for meeting these 31058-1153 challenges. At least one representative of the Council's board was present at each session. 1. Comments: 970.827.5299 970.827.5393 fax Care was taken to include representatives of the following community groups: government/civic, business, arts administrators, arts patrons, media, travel and tourism. Representatives of the second homeowners group declined to attend. Educators were not "°n°`a`Y B°a`a fftd?dded due to extensive meetings with the WAC before this strategic planning process. I Morgan ooL,glaswould suggest two follow-up luncheons: the first with representative second homeowners, the Arne Hansen second with educators. Participants also requested follow-up on the results of the strategic planning process and annual review. iUlrs. Cortlandt Hill Sessions were well attended and discussion was lively. Rosie Wilt ' Fitzhugh Scott B SLTMMARY OF OPIlVIONS SHARED BY PLANNING PROCESS PARTICIPANTS:: 1. Friend raising: Advisory Board Members Bill Charney The Strategic Planning Process gave the WAC a much needed opportunity to carry its franczs Chavez message to key members of its community, first through written materials, then through the discussion sessions. All who attended voiced their approval of the process and that they were Carol Dickfnson flattered to have been included. A majority expressed their willingness to assist VVAC in meeting Suzanne FarverltS gOa1S fOr th8 fL1tL1Te. "Ugl, "'ideslev II The Arts in Vail Vallev: Wil Hokin . , Lyn Segal 1. The arts make Vail Valley a year-round world class resort and place to live: the WAC has an important role to play in making the arts even stronger. r ' 2. Vail Valley has the private resources to support world class arts. 3. The continuing growth in the number of non-skiing tourists and the size of the year-round community present a great opportunity for the visual arts. IIL yail Vallev Arts Council Pro ams: 1. The Arts Festivals are the best known of WAC programs and are perceived to be the best, or most successful of the WAC's programs. All Program Participants ha.d personal experience of the festivals. It is important to the community that these festivals are free to participants. . 2. The Vail Marketing Board approves of the national appeal of the Photography Workshops. Programs that bring national recognition and audiences to the Valley are perceived to be gaod for the community. 3. VISION Photography Workshops are admired however are perceived to be too expensive for locals. 4. Events: Program participants report that they and their friends love the cocktail parties and events where they get to rub shoulders with "art celebrities" like Francoise Gilot, Jim Dine and John Wa1sh (of the Getty).. These events are perceived to bring real value to the community's saciaUintellectual life, bringing the greater world to Vail and putting Vail on the map as an important center of cultural life. N. The Vilar Center for the ArtsBea.ver Creek• l. With expansion into Beaver Creek, an important issue to many community members is how to maintain a presence (programmatically) in Vail and Eagle County. There is trepidation about Vail and Eagle County getting left behind. 2. Participants would like to see a balance in programming of "big" and "little" events; for example people would like to see blockbuster exhibitions coming to the Vail Va.lley but others want to certain that community artists will still have access to exhibitions. A key message was that the mission of the Vitar Center's gallery space needs to be clearly articulated and publicized. While programs should be broad, eoncern was expressed that excellence be maintained to reflect the world class nature of the resort and community as a whole.. 3. Beaver Creek is perceived as "unfriendly" to local audiences. A plan must be articulated and publicized regarding plans to build diversity into the Center's audiences and to include locals as well as tourists. 4. The Center is seen as an important new resource for non-skiing visitors and an enhancement to Vail Va11ey as a full-service resort. I • - who is the audience for the VVAC's programs: locals, second homeowners, tourists? - is the WVAC's mission to support local artists or artists of national reputation? 2. How can the VVAC prove its economic impact int he Valley and thus its economic importance (ie. Create a sense of return on investment for the business community and local government)? 3. How to build and manage a strong volunteer base in the community with traveling second homeowners and a majority of the full-time residents emptoyed full time? 4. How to manage and finance sudden growth with the new Vilar Center for the Arts and also maintain excellence of programming. 5. Clearly define diversity within the Vail Valley; is it racial or economic? Define goals and targets. 6. There is across the board concern with educating young people, getting them into the new space and into education programs. The challenge is to define what is the WAC role in the public school system given the roll back of arts education there. 7. What are appropriate perks for donors to the WAC? 8. Bravo! Colorado music programs and the Vail Valley Foundation programs are better known, and more widely attended than visual arts program. How to build a similar profile for the WAC? 9. Articulate a plan to bring the community from "T shirt art" to great art; how to get the knuckle busters involved. 10. The WAC has grown from an advocacy group for local artists to an organization presenting nationalIy significant programming; what is the organization's responsibility today to its local audiences. 11. Create a plan for maximizing income generating activities to avoid over reliance for donated income. 12. Even with the greatly increased amount of press coverage WAC receives, people say they do not know the organization. Analyze current media coverage; create a concerted marketing and PR campaign to address issues raised by this study. 13. Determine with Board VVAC stand on public art controversy and whether WAC should take leadership role (opinions varied 100% on this issue). . 5. Participants voiced concern in every session about the parking situation at the Cerner; publicity about the Center should clearly articulate the current plans for parking and access by public transportation. 6. It was made clear that a program to bring young people into the Center is very important to the community; it was clear that young people comfortable with visiting the Center would bring their parents. 7. Diversity in the programming of the gallery would help build a sense of diversity in the community V. Fundraising: 1. All participants agreed that with the growth of the arts in the Valley comes stiffer cor:lpetition for available dollars. Suggestions for making WAC competitive in this arena included: - create unique events (ie. Cultural apres ski functions). - provide opportunities to get close to art stars. - create a plan for raising endowment funds to ensure VVAC's future. - create programs for the Valley's young people and their parents will support VVAC. - build closer relationships with local businesses. - continue seeking national sponsors. - create a more personal connection with your donors (ie. personalized thank you notes). 2. WAC mailings stand out; they are so attractive one participant said she sent in a check because she liked the way the brochure looked as opposed to other mailings she had received Continue striving to create a unique look that distinguishes your mailings and reflects the excellence of your programming. You are, after all, a visual arts organization. Your visual presentation is very important. VI. New Ideas: 1. There was excitement at the idea of the Vail Valley as a center for artists, both commercial and experimental. This was seen as an enhancement of the quality of life in the Valley and as a way to affect public perception of the Valley as more than just a jock resort. 2. Enter into a relationship with an arts oriented university so that the Vail Valley becomes the location for a summer arts campus for students and faculty. . - ~ ; 3. Public Art is a hot button for the community; the VVAC Board should articulate its policy on Public Art now to avoid future conflict. 4. One participant suggested a further step to the Strategic Planning Process: studying the status of the arts in other similar communities in order to evaluate the strength of the arts in the Vail Valley. VII. Community Resources: l. WAC can only benefit by forming stronger alliances with community art teachers and the School Board. 2. The Chamber of Commerce will keep its ongoing relationship with the WAC strong and is willing to serve as a bridge to local businesses. 3. Bob will share research with 'MariIyn that is helpful to the development of a statement on the impact of the arts on the local economy which is a necessary tool for successful fundraising from businesses and local government. 4. Build on your close relationship with the Denver Art Museum to share exhibitions and programs. 5. Work with Vail Tomorrow to integrate the visual arts into the overall plan for the community and to position WAC as a community leader. 6. Work on cooperating not competing with local communities and organizations. VII. Mana ement: l. The Executive Director, Marilyn 1VIcCray, has given the WAC a high profile in the community: one of responsiveness to the community and quality programs. 2. The Executive Director is perceived to have made the VVAC a more professional organization. C. SUIVINIARY OF CHALLENGES FACING TI-E VVAC IN MEETING THESE GOALS 1. Does the current WAC mission and name accurately reflect your goals and current programs. - does the mission define expanding tourism as a goal? - what geographic area does the VVAC serve (define Vail Valley).

I have met with members of our Code Enforcement Department and reviewed the present circumstances as pertained in the Town. Their previous efforts to have such items removed from plain view have been unsuccessful due to the lack of any Town regulation requiring removal of these . items. We are presently acquiring copies of regulations in surrounding communities to determine what has been most effective. We will, vvith Town Council approval, schedule this matter for a work sessioii in December once all information has been acquired. This would be the first step:in establishing legislation that would _lead to an orziinance to regulate the parking and removal of such items from private property. You will be notified of the date of Town Council's consideration. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. Very truly ours, , / i ~ R.

As full-time residents and property owners in Vail, we are requesting your help in addressing a matter of great concern to us and a number of citizens of Vail. Since early last summer, we began noticing a proliferation of vehicles parked in various neighborhoods which have a very negative impact on the appearance of our town. Specifically, motor homes, campers, flat-bed trailers, abandoned cars and the like have begun not only to appear but to stay for long periods of time. These vehicles are parked in driveways, on side yards, in fields, in adjacent lots, and on town easement setbacks. Enclosed are a series of photographs which provide samples of the problem. Motor homes as large as fortv feet in length have been parked in East Vail for over a year. Efforts to have some of these vehicles removed, just as a matter of neighborly decency and consideration, have proved fruitless. If this problem goes unchecked, we can all probably expect the number of these often large and sometimes unsightly vehicles to grow, ruining the mountain atmosphere most of us want to preserve. Residents of surrounding communities where such vehicles are prohibited could actually bring them into Vail! Other than the blight on the landscape these vehicles cause, it is a fact that property owners will experience a degradation of their property values. None of us in Vail can afford to let that happen. A Town of Vail Code Enforcement officer advised us that surrounding communities _ (Eagle Vail, Wildridge, Singletree, as examples) have placed restrictions on these types of vehicles. It seemed; inconceivable to us that Vail proper did not, but our research has produced no evidence of a town-wide code restriction. We are requesting your urgent attention to this matter. We would like to meet with you in person to deternune the process of establishing a town-wide ordinance or regulation to deal with this problem before it gets out of control and gives Vail less than the "world class" appearance for which we all work so hard. We will contact you within the next few days, and we look forward to working with you on this matter. Sincerely, 4 Sc~ Robert A.

XC ; ~tu~ October 21, 1997 Y44,d-V--` ~ Vail Town Council Town of Vail Vail, Colorado 81657 Dear Council Members: Where's the integrity? We have been following the Lionshead Master Plan process and are appalled by the emerging results and the process. We have been involved in public planning and development activities in the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area for over 30 years, have skied at Vail for 23 years, and own property in the Landmark for 5 years. We believe the record of Vail Associates in developing on-mountain facilities has been excellent and in keeping with the public interest. However, the participation by partial funding and other influence that Vail Associates has in your present planning process would not be aitowed in modern-day town and city planning elsewhere. Your planning objectives ascribe to improving the "aesthetic character" and making a "warmer, more vibrant environment". However, the emerging plans are clearly driven by the commercial interests of Vail Associates in creating a high density, high-rise urban environment in the Lionshead core. Evidence for this is: 1) the non-public plans of Vail Associates for high-density, high-rise buildings with narrow corridors in the center of Lionshead (see enclosure) and 2) the proposed "bold-stroke" bus-traffic route directly through the center of Lionshead. These actions would create a Wall Street environment that should have no place in the Town of Vail. Why were these plans for the core not unveiled by Vail Associates during the "wish list" phase along with other public comments? . The idea of a bus-corridor through the center of Lionshead is so repugnant we can understand why it is called the "bold stroke". What could be less aesthetically desirable? It would also require about $20 million or more to acquire the property rights and build (presumably from public funds?). Interestingly, an alternate route that would connect Lionshead Circle through the old gondola building to Lionshead Place would destroy less property and deliver people closer to the new gondola for skier convenience. However, this alternate would obviously conflict with Vail Associate's high-density, high-rise development plans and with the desire to encourage more "shopping" in the Lionsfiead core via pedestrian walk thoughs. What is a"public view corridor" in your plans; a euphemism for places to view the mountain between walls of high-rise buildings? The current broad public view shouldn't be reduced to "corridors". What should be done? First, the present Lionshead Plaza, reminiscent of a European piazza, should not be destroyed. The Plaza is the focal point for activities such as President Gerald Ford's annual lighting of Christmas tree, the strolling musician in lederhosen, and the display of sled dogs. These activities give the existing Lionshead a"desirable aesthetic character and vibrant atmosphere", which your planners apparently have not noticed. Implanting large r • Beaver Creek-like structures would not. Second, encourage the rebuilding of existing buildings such as Sunbird Lodge and the gondola building within their current height limits. Allow higher rise buildings only along the I-70 comdor, so the building heights would slope downward toward the mountain maintaining the aesthetics of a mountain environment while shielding the view of I-70. In contrast, the plan of Vail Associates would have building heights sloping upward toward the mountain. Third, maintain the frontage road as the transportation corridor, with spoked pedestrian access to Lionshead Plaza via four entries: the Circle, Concert Hall Plaza, the new proposed drop off on the North side of the Landmark tower, and Lionshead Place. The new drop off could be developed as an underground facility with pedestrian access to the plaza through an attractive portal design. Buses will always be large, obtrusive, and incompatible with a village-piazza environment and pedestrian streets. In summary, we believe that the present Master Plan process is driven by the iudderi goa;s of Vail Associates in developing high-rise and high-density that is not permitted by current codes. The Master Plan should be canceled, or at least postponed until its desirability is more clearly and directly articulated. In particular, the planning process needs to be separated from the funding and undue influence of Vail Associates in order to give it credibility and unquestioned integrity. We believe the Council should first review the ideas presented by the community of citizens and property owners, and consider how the goals of improving the aesthetic environment of Lionshead can be accomplished within existing codes and plans. In particular, the plans of Vail Associates for their development in Lionshead should be exposed to the public view in a straight forward manner, rather than under cloak of a Master Plan.

Frontage Road Vail, Colorado 81657 Re: Renovation of Lionshead To Whom It May Concern: . The Westwind condominium building is located in Lionshead. The building was the first to be built in Lionshead. The location and views of the mountain are an enormous benefit to the building and are major factors in the building's value. . The Westwind owners are spending a significant amount of money (in excess of $1 million dollars) this year and next renovating the interior and exterior of the building. The owners agree that the Lionshead area needs renovation. We at The Westwind are doing our part by significantly renovating our building. . The potential loss of mountain views and increased noise congestion around our building are a significant concern to The Westwind owners. We believe any renovation project in the Lionshead area which is taller than the clock tower will have _a significant.negative effect on existing buildings in the area. . A building higher than the clock tower would not help to develop the Lionshead area. In fact, it . would most likely have a negative effect on the existing Lionshead buildings and make it much more difficult for the existing building owners to have the desire to invest money (as The Westwind owners have) into their buildings. . The clock tower is tall enough. Any benefit received by some small number of condominiums or hotel rooms built taller than the clock tower could not possibly be worth the negative effect it would surely have on existing Lionshead buildings. . In addition, the current "Lionshead Mall" area appears too small for a traffic corridor. It is only two to three blocks from the East Lionshead bus stop to the West Lionshead Concert Hall Plaza bus stop. if you eniarge ine mali area, it wuuid stili ue only iwu to lhree biocks wiue - irardly wicie enuuyl-i iar a traffic corridor. . We have asked Geoff Wright of Destination Resorts to monitor this situation and to keep us informed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me at 312.347.5903 or my assistant, Betsi Farrell at 312.347.5937. Si cerely, James F.

I found them very interesting, and spent several hours looking at the drawings th=ough a magnifying glass. First, I would appreciate it if you would pass along my thanks to a11 of the people who have contributed their ideas to this massive project. There's not enough mczey in the world to pay for the enthusiasm and creativity that have gone into these plans. Clearly the people who are leading this process have a great love and passion for Vail/Lionshead. As a part-time homeowner in Lionshead, my wife ard I feel deeply indebted to everyone who has invested so much time in this project. Second, we want to also thank you for the openness'of the project. I have never seen a greater public outreach effort for any endeavor. Everyone on the city council, design committee, zoning have set a new standard in public outreach and debate. 'Finally, I would like to endorse the plans and recommendations that have been developed thus far. The plans are exciting and far-reaching. In particular, I saant ro endorse the higner-density zoning that may be necessary to bring these plans to fruition. I realize that not all of my neighbors share this view, and I respect their concerns. Personally, my wife and i find the higher-density of a Beaver Creek-like community to offer more advantages than disadvantages. It appears tr?ese raised density standards will be necessary to finance the design improvements we all want. Noise pollution standards are one area where I would ask for higher standards. Bus noise and crowd noise currently can cause problems. As we move to higher density, I would ask the committee to review noise standards and set levels that will create a relaxing atmosphere for the greater number of beds planned for this area. As we route buses through Lionshead itself, it's important that this issue be addressed. I would be greatly pleased to see the diesel buses exchanged for electric-driven vehicles as older vehicles are taken out of use. Once again, please extend my appreciation to a11 those who have worked so hard =or a new Lionshead. Sincerely, Chuck Curtis 1 of 1 11/3/97 8:53 AM XC: Cdt~~ October 20, 1997 ~~yESj`NG IN rR A J~` T?

Yet certain names crop up again and again. ltvo of them are Verbier and Chamonix, resorts that have long been .'.41{ ~ praised for their slopes, and are highly rated on that score alone. Still, neither acores highly as all-round reaorts, in part because most visitora atay in chalets and apartrnents, and so there is a rather noticeable lack of truly outstanding y•~ hotels or restaurants. A better pick for a top resort in FY'ance is Courchevel, a sophisticated spot that was once the winter home of Brigitte Bazdot and the St I"ropez jet set Courchevel is the linchpin of the l4'ois Vallees, a network of sld resorts, lifts and runs that ranks as one of the best all-round sld areas anywhere. There are, strictly spealang, three Courchevels, each identified with its altitude in meters ' after the name. Courchevel 1850, the highest of the three, has nearly 70 lifts , that take slders to some 400 miles of trails, maldng this one of the most exten- sive sld areas in the world. _ ;---T?~~,~_ "Courchevel boasts some four-star hotels to pamper its wealthy guests, in- I'. cluding the well-known and ultra-luxurious Byblos des Neiges, which has spas, indoor swinuning pools and, from some rooms, the best mountain scenery avail- able. Such luxury dcesn't come cheap: At peak season, mom rates can easily approach $1,000 a night, and suites cost more, much more. ~ ~__7 , The village of Courchevel has good eating too; starting with Le Bateau Ivre, a two-star Michelin restaurant run by mast.ax chef Jean Jacobs and his son, Jean-Pierre. Gourmet magazine praised the place for its sunple yet artistic presentation. An evening meal runs nearly $100 a head, excluding wine. ~ I Somewhat less glitzy, but certainly a contender among France's best sld re- _ sorts, is Megeve, a relatively small town about 60 minutes south of Geneva.
