FROM: Barbara Black
RE: Vail Valley Marketing Board i
Lorelei:
I am interested in being considered for an additional term on the Vail Valley Marketing
Board. After being selected by the Town of Vail four years ago to serve on the Board, I
have acted as the chairperson for the FIT, or leisure traveler segment of the Marketing
Board's efforts. During my term, I have enjoyed the challenges of promoting the Vail
Valley in a very competitive marketplace and feel that my 12 years in the advertising field
have enabled me to contribute to the efforts of marketing the Vail Valley.
Thank.you for your consideration and please let me know what the next steps are.

Re: Town of Vail Appointment to Vail Valley Marketing Board
Dear Ms. Donaldson:
By this letter, I wish to inform you and the Town Council of my interest in being
considered for reappointment to the Vail Valley Marketing Board for a second term. I
was originally appointed to a four-year term on this Board by the Town Council in
January 1995 and have served as its Chair for the past four years.
In my view, the VVMB has provided valuable service to the Town of Vail and to other
investors in the summer marketing program. We now have an opportunity to move this
effort to a new plateau. The State of Colorado recently authorized the creation of
marketing districts in parts of a county that include more than one municipality as well as
unincorporated areas. The VVMB, working with the VVTCB and the Chamber, expect to
ask Vail Valley voters to approve the creation of a marketing district funded by a lodging
tax next November. In this time of transition, Board member continuity is important. It is
for that reason that I ask the Town Council to consider my reappointment.
Sincerely,
M. Ro oyle

SUBJECT: Community Facilities Plan
1. PURPOSE:
The purpose of this work session is to review, approve, or modify the parameters and
the proposed process for a community facilities development program in cooperation
with the Vail Recreation District.
2. BACKGROUND:
Over the last 20-30 years the Vail community has worked to develop world class
facilities for its residents and guests. Existing community facilities are summarized in the

Other community related facilities that need to be acknowledged include:
• Villar Center in Beaver Creek (500 seats)
• Avon Recreational Center
• Eagle Vail Pavilion, golf course, and ice rink
• Private recreational facilities (Vail Athletic, Racquet Club, Cascade Club, and 7
private golf courses)
• Private (Hotel) Conference Space which can accommodate civic & cultural functions
New community facilities for recreation or cultural events in Vail have been contemplated
in the last 10 years. A vote on an aquatic center was considered and voted down in the
late 1980s. A .9% sales tax in restaurants and bars and a 1.87% lodging tax to pay for
a performing arts facility was considered in a 1993 election and also failed.
West of Vail, new facilities are being planned as part of the Village at Avon. These
facilities include the creation of two sheets of ice for hockey and figure skating, ball
fields, skateboard park, and a community center. The Berry Creek Recreation Authority,
of which the Town of Vail is a 60% owner, may also have community facilities located on
these lands.
3. RECENT PUBLIC INPUT
The 1998 Town of Vail Community survey indicated strong interest for the following
community facilities (rank is on a scale of 1-5 with 5 being very important):
• Youth Center: 3.6 residents/3.1 part time residents
• Performing Arts: 3.0 residents/3.5 part time residents
• Conference Center: 3.0 residents/3.2 part time residents
• Community Theatre: 2.8 residents/3.1 part time residents
The Vail Tomorrow process and the Building Community team identified the following
community facilities needs (not listed in order of priority):
• 2nd sheet of ice
• Gymnastics Facility
• Performing Arts: Dance area for youth & seniors
• Arts and Crafts
• Community swimming pool
• Youth Center i.e., arcade room, bowling alley, roller skate park, coffee (cyber
cafe) house
• Community Meeting Rooms
• Neighborhood Parks in West Vail
• High tech multi-media center
3
The Building Community team also developed a purpose statement which is to "facilitate
creation of a multi purpose building that meets community needs, serving people from all
demographic groups, all ages and full time, part-time and seasonal residents."
The Vail Recreation District has identified.the following community facility related needs
based on public input:
• New gymnastics facility to replace the existing facility at the Old Town Shops
• New and improved youth center
• Creation of a 2nd sheet of ice
Arts and Crafts facility
• Improved locker space for Dobson and improved facilities for performances in
Dobson
The 1998 Common Ground process did not address specific uses but did identify two
sites for further consideration for community facilities. These sites are the Charter Bus
Lot on the East Side of the Lionshead parking structure and the Golf Course Clubhouse.
The Lionshead Master Plan, which was adopted on December 15, 1998, identifies the
area east of the Lionshead Parking structure as a civic hub. The plan states "the civic
hub of Lionshead is comprised of Dobson Ice Arena, the Vail Public Library, the
Lionshead parking structure and the proposed Vail Civic Center site." The land was
purchased in the 1970s for the purpose of creating a civic center.
Most recently a group of 5 planning, entertainment, and development executives from
companies outside the Vail Valley, participated in a charette to brainstorm ideas to
distinguish Vail as the Premier Mountain Resort Community. This was an initiative by
the Vail Community Task Force. Among other recommendations, the charette
participants made the following conclusions related to community facilities:
• Vail = skiing: When you say skiing, people need to think Vail.
• Build facilities that compliment the mountain environment. Build amenities
. around the theme of skiing and mountain sports.
• We need a world class community facility that serves both residents and
guests.
• We need these facilities today. Don't just talk about it-build it.
• Build a regional system of world class facilities. Don't duplicate what already
exists between Wolcott and Vail.
4. PARAMETERS
The following are suggested parameters for developing a Vail Community Facilities
Program:
1) The facilities programming will build upon the community facility ideas and
lands that have been identified through the Vail Tomorrow, Common Ground,
Lionshead master plan, and other community processes.
4
1
2) The facilities programming will compliment both recreational (e.g., skiing and
mountain sports) and cultural (e.g., art, performing arts) amenities that'exist in
the Vail Valley so as to create a world class network of community facilities in the
Valley.
3) The facilities shall be outstanding in their design and programming. (If I were
a potential resident or guest I would be drawn to Vail because of it. This could
not be replicated in Peoria, III.)
4) The facilities will serve both Vail Valley residents and guests.
_ 5) Public-private partnerships will be pursued.
6) The process will respect the Town of Vail land use regulations and policies.
The Town Council will be the final decision-maker on any uses being proposed
for Town owned lands.
5. FACILITIES PLAN
The attached flow chart describes a suggested process for completing a facilities
program for the Town of Vail. This process is centered on a competitive design process
where 3 different design groups are engaged to develop alternative facility programs and
designs. The critical decision in this process is determining what instructions for
programming and the use of lands will be communicated to the design team.
Attachment 1 describes the recommended process.
6. PROJECT BUDGET
Budget needs are very preliminary at this point. The Town of Vail has allocated $60,000
for this project in 1999. The Vail Recreation District has indicated that it would be
interested in a financial partnership in completing the planning process for this project.
Other entities have also expressed an interest in supporting this process. The major
budgetary considerations will include:
• Communications for the public process
• Funding for public meetings
• Consulting fees for up to three design groups
• Financial Planning for determining specific costs of construction and operation
7. DISCUSION POINTS
The following are suggested discussion points. Staff anticipates Vail Recreation District
Board members _to be present on January 5`h and it is suggested that their input be
solicited on the following questions as well.
• Is the Town Council comfortable with the design parameters
• Is the Town Council comfortable with the attached process
(Two of the most critical steps are the development of instructions for the design
teams and the selection of the preferred alternative)

Michael Arnett
COUNCIL MEMBERS ABSENT: Michael Jewett
STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Bob McLaurin, Town Manager

The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation. Tom and Flo Steinberg expressed their
concern regarding Ford Park construction, in particular, the mud not being removed from the
pathways, the amount of concrete pylons and the size of the project. Town Manager McLaurin
explained Ford Park was the site for the opening ceremonies for the 99 Championships being
held at Ford Park and assured the Steinbergs that the park would be restored to its original state
by the Vail Valley Foundation once the event was over.
The second item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 18, Series of 1998, an
ordinance making supplemental appropriations from the Town of Vail Booth Creek Bond Fund
and Health Insurance Fund. Steve Thompson, Financial Director, presented the ordinance to the
Council, stating that the ordinance added $200 to the Booth Creek bond fund and $70,000 to the
town's health insurance fund. Steve Thompson presented the ordinance to the Town Council,
stating the Council had passed two supplemental appropriations for 1998. This would be the
final one. He stated no additional appropriation was needed in the General Fund since the full
budgeted transfer for the Red Sandstone housing project would not be used Council member
Bob Armour made a motion to approve Ordinance 18, Series of 1998, on first reading and
Council member Michael Arnett seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed
unanimously, 6-0.
The third item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1998, an
ordinance repealing and reenacting Title 10, Chapter 1; Adopting by Reference the 1997 Edition
of the Uniform Building Code, the 1997 Edition of the Code for the Abatement of Dangerous
Buildings, the 1996 Edition of the National Electric Code; the 1995 Edition of the Model Energy
Code; the 1998 Edition of the International Mechanical Code, the 1997 Edition of the Uniform
Mechanical Code, the 1994 Edition of the Uniform Plumbing Code, and the 1997 Edition of the
International Plumbing Code. Gary Goodell, Chief Building Official presented the ordinance to
the Council, stating the Uniform Fire Code had been inadvertently left out of this ordinance.and
would be added before second reading. Goodell stated there were also two amendments
regarding access that needed to be stricken from the document, as the Town of Vail had not
adopted the design standards referred to in the ordinance. Council member Bob Armour made a
motion to approve Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1998, on first reading with the above changes
and Mayor Pro-Tem Ludwig Kurz seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion
passed unanimously, 6-0.
The fourth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 21, Series of 1998, an
ordinance authorizing the conveyance of fee title to a parcel of land owned by the Town of Vail to
Paul E. Raether and Wendy S. Raether. Tom Moorhead, Town Attorney, presented the
ordinance to the Town Council, stating the Town has been negotiating in good faith with the
residents on Rockledge Road to convey land where residents now have encroachments and to
create a buffer between Rockledge and the forest on what was United States Forest Service
lands and now are Town of Vail owned lands. The value of this land has been calculated on a
per square foot basis. There is the potential to see a return of $1.4 million on the sale of
properties on Rockledge Road. This conveyance to Paul and Wendy Raether is the first in what
is anticipated to be a series of transfers which will address numerous private encroachments on
what was Forest System lands. This conveyance will also create an open space buffer between
the Town of Vail and the Forest Service land to the south of Rockledge Road. It is hoped that it
will reduce the likelihood of private exchanges of Forest Service lands in and around the Town of
Vail. The Town continues to maintain a strong posture in regard to opposing private land
exchanges that could allow additional development around the Town of Vail.
Council heard from Tom Steinberg, a former Council member, who was instrumental in initiating
land exchange discussions with the Forest Service. He urged the Council to remain firm on its
original agreement with the Forest Service as to how the properties were represented. The
Council also heard from Diana Donovan regarding the potential addition of square footage to the
property being sold and also the issue of real estate transfer tax funds relating to the land
exchange. There was discussion regarding the use of real estate transfer tax funds being used
to purchase Trapper's Run. Town Attorney Moorhead was instructed to address this issue.
Russ Forrest, Community Development Director, stated that as a result of the Common Ground
meetings held last June 3 and 4, the sale of property to be used for employee housing was one
of the top preferences of the group. After further discussion, Council member Sybill Navas
made a motion to approve Ordinance 21, Series of 1998, on first reading, striking any references
made to allocating proceeds to the housing fund. The motion was seconded by Council member
Mike Arnett. Council member Kevin Foley stated he felt the Town should be getting top dollar for
land it was selling and did not feel the Council was being responsible for selling it for less than
fair-market value. Council member Bob Armour thanked the staff and the community for their
time and effort to work on the land ownership agreement. A vote was taken on the motion and
the motion passed 5 to 1, Kevin Foley opposing.
The fifth item on the agenda was Ordinance No. 22, Series of 1998, first reading of an
Ordinance Authorizing the Conveyance of an Easement by and Between the Town of Vail and
the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District on Lot 9, Sec. 18, T. 5 S., R. 79 W., 6th P.M.
The Eagle River Water and Sanitation District has placed a new water tank upon the Town of
Vail land and will be paying a fair market price of $30,000 to the Town of Vail for the easements.
After some discussion, Mayor Pro-Tem Ludwig Kurz made a motion to approve Ordinance No.
22, Series of 1998, on first reading. Council member Sybill Navas seconded the motion. A vote
was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 6-0.
The sixth item on the agenda was Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1998, An Emergency Ordinance
amending Section 9.34.030 of the Municipal Code of the Town of Vail to provide that it shall be
unlawful for any person under the age of 21 years to have in his possession any fermented malt
beverage. Tom Moorhead presented this ordinance to the Town Council, stating the amendment
was being presented at the request of the Town of Vail Municipal Judge Buck Allen, Prosecuting
r
Attorney Tom Silverman and the Vail Police Department. The Town of Vail Code presently limits
possession of alcoholic beverages by minors to those circumstances in which such beverages
are "in any container of any kind, whether opened or unopened." Under this provision as it
presently reads, the Town of Vail has been confronted with difficulty in prosecuting persons
underage who are in an intoxicated condition and based upon the evidence, do possess such
beverages though they have already been consumed. Therefore, this amendment would allow
such prosecutions to proceed upon evidence that the underage person is in an intoxicated
condition and therefore possessing alcoholic beverage. It was requested the ordinance be
considered as an emergency so that it would be effective prior to the holiday season when the
Town of Vail experiences an increase in the occurrence of underage drinking.
Discussion followed regarding the need to have this ordinance passed as an emergency.
ordinance, as well as the lack of activities for the 18-20 year age group in the Vail area. Carol
Hymers and Diana Donovan addressed the Council, asking for their help in finding activities for
Vail's underage population. Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve Ordinance
20, Series of 1998, on first reading, and asked that Judge Allen or Prosecuting Attorney
Silverman attend the second reading of this ordinance to discuss its necessity on December
15th. Council member Navas seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the ordinance passed
4-2, Council members Foley and Arnett opposing.
The seventh item on the agenda was the second reading of Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1998,
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, 1999, Through December 31, 1999, and Providing for the Levy
Assessment and Collection of Town Ad Valorem Property Taxes Due for the 1998 Tax Year and
Payable in the 1999 Fiscal Year.. Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve
Ordinance No. 17, Series of 1998, on first reading, and Council member Bob Armour seconded
the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 5-1, Kevin Foley opposed.
The eighth item on the agenda was Resolution No. 15, Series of 1998, a Resolution Amending
the Deferred Compensation Plan and Establishing a Trust. This Resolution amends the Town of
Vail Deferred Compensation Plan and creates a trust to hold the plan assets as required by the
Internal Revenue Code. Steve Thompson, Finance Director, presented the resolution to the
Council, stating this was a plan for employees to put their own dollars into their compensation
plan. He stated the Town of Vail does not match these funds. Thompson stated that last year
the plan was approved for by police and fire. He stated this plan was identical to the police and
fire plan. Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve Resolution No. 15, Series of
1998, and Council member-Sybill Navas seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion
was unanimously approved.
The ninth item on the agenda was the presentation of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master
Plan. Dominic Mauriello, Chief of Planning, addressed the Council, along with Ethan Moore,
outlining the revisions made to the Lionshead Master Plan. A list of additional concerns were
outlined by the Council, to be incorporated into the Master Plan. Mayor Ford stated that this
study had been in progress for over two years, taking into consideration building heights, view
corridors, GRFA calculations, parking requirements, parking pay in lieu, employee housing and
youth play areas.
The Council also heard from Jim Lamont, East Village Homeowners Association, in which a list
of "unresolved Issues" was presented, including a request to give GRFA a larger role in
controlling development parameters. David Corbin of Vail Associates and Robert Lazier, a
Lionshead property owner, addressed the Council, stating that the need for controlling GRFA
1
was not as effective as the need to move forward with the adoption and implemention of the
plan.
The Council requested Ethan Moore and planning staff to provide a recommendation on a GRFA
ratio that will provide flexibility for design and allow more emphasis on other design standards, as
well as addressing the other points presented by the Council. Approval by the Town Council is
scheduled for the December 15th meeting.
The tenth item on the agenda was Town Manager's Report. Town Manager McLaurin stated he
had nothing to add to the report submitted.
As there was no further business, Council member Bob Armour made a motion to adjourn the
meeting. Council member Michael Arnett seconded the motion. A vote was taken and passed
unanimously, 6-0. The meeting was adjourned at 10:25 P.M.

Edition of the Uniform Plumbing Code, And, with Regard to the Above-described Codes,
Adopting Certain Appendices, Setting Forth Certain Amendments Thereto, and Setting

Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 19, Series of 1998 on
second reading, the motion was seconded by Council member Ludwig Kurz. A vote was
taken. The motion passed, 7-0.
The third item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 23, Series of 1998,
Amending Ordinance No. 8, Series of 1995, Revising Gross Residential Floor Area (GRFA),
Building Height Requirements, and Employee Housing Provisions for Lots 39-1 and 39-2, Glen
Lyon Subdivision, Development Area C, SDD No. 4 (Cascade Village); Repealing Resolution
No. 10, Series of 1982, Which Provides Special Provisions for Lots 39-1 and 39-2, Glen Lyon
Subdivision; Deleting Outdated Conditions and References to Expired Development Plans; and
Setting Forth. Details in Regard Thereto.
Dominic Mauriello, Town Planner, stated that the Community Development Department
recommends approval of this ordinance because we couldn't find any compelling reason to
treat it differently from other lots in the area. He also said that the GRFA for these lots would
be 9,500 square feet in response to Council's question that was asked at the work session
earlier that day.
Tim Pennington, the applicant, gave a brief background description of the history of the lot in
the Glen Lyon Subdivision. He would like these lots treated as equally as the other adjacent
lots in the area. He also said the lot size would be the smallest in Glen Lyon, and the
easements on the lots benefit the community and Vail Resorts. He reiterated that the
application is supported by town staff and the Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC),
2 Vail Town Council December 15, 1998 Meeting Minutes
and the application is consistent with other lots in the neighborhood.
Council member Bob Armour asked Tim about the number of Employee Housing Units (EHU)
on the lots.
Tim said there would only be one EHU, not two, on the lots as the bridge does not allow access
and room to have two EHU's. He said the EHU would probably be on the west lot (Lot 39-1).
Council member Bob Armour asked if the applicant would have an issue if the.town stipulated
that an additional EHU be added to the lots.
Tim stated he didn't have a problem with the stipulation of an additional EHU being added.
Council member Bob Armour asked the staff why the bridge wouldn't allow two EHU's to be on
these lots versus one.
Dominic stated the Fire Department access and general access to these lots made it difficult for
these lots to have three units on them plus an additional EHU. The current code allows them to
have one EHU currently. Also, having a small bridge width made access difficult.
Sherry Dorward, the Landscape Architect, explained that given the configuration of the lots,
having a larger bridge would have meant a building the bridge on a curve, and it would have
been limited in road width. She said the bridge is approximately 16 feet wide.
Tom Moorhead, Town Attorney, asked Sherry if these lots could handle a total of four units, two
main units with two EHU's.
Sherry said the lots could handle the additional EHU.
Andy Norris stated he was involved in the development of the Glen Lyon Subdivision and these
lots. He said the GRFA was 10,731 square feet for these lots.
Council member Sybill Navas asked if the GRFA figure they are asking for included the EHU
and garages..
Andy Norris stated that those figures have been included in total GRFA. He also said the
original covenants for the subdivision named the Town as an enforcer of the covenants. The
visual impacts, and a lot of studies were done on the lots to see how it affects the
neighborhood.
Sherry Dorward, said she was hired to work on this project 10 years ago. She explained how
the site was developed and explained the concepts, building envelopes, roof lines, impacts and
depth and mass of the project.
Council member Ludwig Kurz asked if the photos were enhanced by additional landscaping.
3 Vail Town Council December 15, 1998 Meeting Minutes
Sherry said there is no landscaping added and the pictures showed the existing trees on the
lots. She said the lots were compatible with the neighborhood, and there are other large units in
this area. This project is in character and size of the neighborhood.
Council member Kevin Foley asked about access to Vail Mountain to this area.
Dominic Mauriello said the access should not impact this site.
Tom Moorhead stated the alternative route to the mountain is via Tract K and further up the
mountain than this site and the impacts were found to be not significant. The process'to
change the covenants is still in process but this would not impact these lots.
Council member Kevin Foley said he sees this as a stumbling block to getting snow cats up the
mountain.
Tim Pennington, the applicant, said he would have to look at the proposal.
Council member Ludwig Kurz asked Torn about adding the second EHU to the lots and if this
was an issue with the bridge access.
Tom said based on what has been presented this evening, and the Town staff and Sherry
Dorward agreeing that an additional EHU could be added, it could be done. However, there is
no stipulation at this time to add a second EHU.
Council member Mike Arnett said he agrees the size of the lots are in keeping with the
neighborhood. With a small bridge there would be limited traffic and suggested the two EHU's
GRFA come out of the total GRFA for the lot instead of adding GRFA to the total.
Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 23, Series of 1998 on
first reading, with a requirement that each lot have an EHU with a minimum of 500 square feet
each. The motion was seconded by Council member Sybill Navas.
-Further discussion ensued regarding the visibility of the buildings, landscaping requirements,
and the GRFA requirements.
Council member Mike Arnett asked Bob Armour if he would change the motion to add that
Ordinance No. 23, Series of 1998 be approved with the change that GRFA for Lot 39-1 EHU,
be subtracted from the total GRFA for the lots.
Further discussion ensued on GRFA.
Council member Bob Armour made a change in his motion to approve Ordinance No. 23,
Series of 1998 with requirement that a Type II EHU be added to each lot, with up to 500 square
feet of GRFA subtracted from the total GRFA and the motion was seconded by Council
member Sybil[ Navas.
4 Vail Town Council December 15, 1998 Meeting Minutes
a '
Further discussion ensued regarding GRFA and the addition of the second EHU.
Council member Kevin Foley suggested adding the 500 additional square feet for the second
EHU added to the total GRFA. He doesn't want to penalize the applicant.
Council member Ludwig Kurz stated the second EHU GRFA should be included in the original
square footage allowed.
Council member Sybill Navas said there will be an impact on the skier bridge,.but the applicant
is getting more than twice as much GRFA as there was before. .
Council member Mike Jewett stated he is still unclear about the motion.
Council member Bob Armour said the motion is that two EHU's be on the lots with an additional
garage credit and the GRFA for the EHU's be included in the total GRFA of the lots.
A vote was taken. The motion passed, 7-0.
The fourth item on the agenda was second reading of Ordinance No. 18, Series of 1998,
second reading of an Ordinance making Supplemental Appropriations from the Town of Vail
Booth Creek Bond Fund and Health Insurance Fund, of the 1998 Budget and the Financial Plan
for the Town of Vail, Colorado; and Authorizing the Expenditures of Said Appropriations as Set
Forth Herein; and Setting Forth Details in Regard Thereto.
Steve Thompson, Finance Director, stated the Council has passed two supplemental
appropriations for 1998. This is the final supplemental appropriation. No additional
appropriation will be needed in the General Fund since the full budgeted transfer for the Red
Sandstone housing project won't be used, this project won't be complete by December 31,
1998.
Council member Ludwig Kurz asked why there were two Ordinance No. 18 in their council
packet, and why they are different.
Steve Thompson clarified the changes saying there were changes of the reallocation of the
transfer of funds.
Council member Sybil[ Navas made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 18, Series of 1998 on
second reading, the motion was seconded by Council member Bob Armour. A vote was taken.
The motion passed, 6-0. Council member Mike Arnett was not in the room for the vote.
The fifth item on the agenda was second reading of Ordinance No. 21, Series of 1998,
authorizing the Conveyance of Fee Title to the Following Land Owned by the Town of Vail:
A parcel of land situated in Government Lot 3, Section 7, Township 5 South, Range 80 West of

Council members Kevin Foley and Mike Arnett said it is hard to be a young person in this town
and there needs to be other alternative activities provided and the focus should be on the
alternatives.
6 Vail Town Council December 15, 1998 Meeting Minutes
Council member Bob Armour said this ordinance was brought before Council as an emergency
ordinance originally and the Council wanted additional information on what were the problems,
what are some solutions and why does the town need it.
Mayor Rob Ford said the ordinance would make it easier to process a person through the court
system.
Greg, Morrison, Chief of Police, said the possession of alcohol by minors is illegal by state law.
Judge Buck Allen, stated that the Town municipal code states.the alcohol has be in a container,
but if the minor drinks the contents, then the container is empty. A clarification of the code is
why this ordinance is needed. The town has a good court system, but the courts hands are tied
because the code states the alcohol needs to be in a container. This is a separate issue than
providing alternative activities.
Council member Mike Arnett asked about a separate the issue of disorderly conduct being a
separate issue from drinking.
Greg Morrison said it is separate issue. There shouldn't be underage persons drinking at all.
Council member Sybill Navas asked what alternatives does the town have without this
ordinance in place.
Greg Morrison said the process of putting people in "detox" starts. By state law, the police
could book people in to Eagle County. Greg would like to see the town municipal code mirror
state law so people can be booked into municipal court instead of the county.
Council member Sybill Navas asked if, by passing this ordinance, the town would be "stepping
on any toes".
Greg Morrison said one of the problems is that on New Year's Eve parents of minors are not
around. With this ordinance, the police could Issue a summons without parents being there.
Without the ordinance the minors have to be placed in jail and watched until parents are found
and then they go to district court in Eagle.
Mayor Rob Ford said he sympathizes with Council member Kevin Foley's issues, but the
Council tried other activities on July 4 but the program did not receive much support from the
community or Council.
Greg Morrison said the movie theater tickets were purchased but there was not much support
for that program either.
Judge Buck Allen said the code mirrors the state law with the intent. He is seeing people
brought in on this charge are the people throwing up or being dragged around by friends
because they can't stand up. The minors getting picked up are significantly intoxicated. This
would require a person to come to court and parents notified. This is not intended to have a big
7 Vail Town Council December 15, 1998 Meeting Minutes
fine but the minors are scheduled to attend an alcohol class. He is seeing .this behavior in
Breckenridge also.
Mayor Rob Ford asked the judge if state law takes care of this issue.
Judge Buck Allen said it does but it goes to the district court system in Eagle County and this
ordinance will amend the procedure so that minors in Vail go through our municipal court
system. He also said this ordinance is for young persons walking around town intoxicated, not
for people carrying around an open container.
Mayor Rob Ford said he wants to make progress on this issue, and get the community on
board with activities for these young people.
Greg Morrison said this ordinance is not an either/or situation, minors will still drink.
Buck Allen said ideas for alternative activities are good but this also needs to be addressed in
Denver because most of these kids are from the front range on New Year's Eve and 4th of July.
Council member Bob Armour asked if it's illegal to drink, carry or buy alcohol under the age of
21.
Buck Allen said yes it is illegal.
Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1998 on
second reading, the motion was seconded by Council member Ludwig Kurz.
Council member Ludwig Kurz explained he seconded the motion not loosely or hardheartedly,
he doesn't see that this ordinance will change any day-to-day enforcement, however, if the town
doesn't get a handle on this issue, the town will be doing a disservice rather than a service to
the community. Resorts have died from lack of people we want to have come to Vail. A part of
this is to provide activities. This ordinance will be beneficial rather than a negative impact.
Council member Sybill Navas said she agrees but we need to provide what the kids need.
There is a certain sensitivity needed to dissuade them instead of prosecute them. The town
needs a variety of tools to handle this issue.
A vote was taken. The motion passed, 5-2, Council members Kevin Foley and Mike Arnett
against.
The eighth item on the agenda was the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan and Resolution
No. 14, Series of 1998. The Lionshead Master Plan Team is seeking final adoption of the
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan with the implementing Resolution No. 14, Series of
1998.
Mayor Rob Ford stated for the public that this process has been on-going for 2-1/2 years.
Council's concerns from the work session have been addressed.
8 Vail Town Council December 15, 1998 Meeting Minutes
t
Council member Mike Arnett thanked the whole team for all their hard work.
Jim Lamont, the East Village Homeowners Association (EVHOA) representative, said the
master planning process is a learning process. As painful and tedious as it is, it is a learning
process. The growth issue and Lionshead was an issue in the past. The important thing to
remember is this process will be giving a shot in the arm to Lionshead, the GRFA will stay, and
he reminded Council that GRFA has nothing to do with the designs of the buildings. This plan
does have to do with GRFA and zoning and reinvesting in Lionshead. Their sacrifices would be
rewarded in value and investments. He applauds the Council in their efforts to learn and
support this proposal. The EVHOA has participated in this process because they believe it is
tied to the economic success of Vail. He thanked the Council for allowing the EVHOA to
participate.
Dave Corbin, a representative of Vail Associates, thanked the survivors of the process,
particularly the town staff, Ethan Moore, Design Workshop and Council for their time and efforts
in this process. He looks forward to the zoning and implementation process.
Council member Mike Arnett made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 14, Series of 1998, with
the changes made and the motion was seconded by Council member Bob Armour.
Council member Ludwig Kurz made a comment he would have wholeheartedly seconded the
motion. He said this was a momentous occasion because the time and effort put in by
neighbors, Council, staff and consultants now gives the town a framework to revitalize
Lionshead and bring up the standards to compete with other competitors and thanked staff and
the team to help Council stay informed.
Council member Kevin Foley said this has been a long process and thanked everyone for their
participation. He said the public good needs to be maintained and expressed that everyone he
has spoken to in Lionshead is excited about this plan.
Council member Bob Armour said he appreciates the comments from Jim Lamont. The town
did get closer during this process and the spirit and determination is for the good of the
community.
A vote was taken, and the motion passed, 7-0.
The ninth item on the agenda was a discussion of the Ford Park Managed Parking.
This item was tabled to the January 5, 1998 meeting.
The tenth item on the agenda was the Town Manager's Report. There was nothing further to
report.
As there was no further business, a motion was made by Council member Mike Arnett to
adjourn the meeting and was seconded by Council member Kevin Foley. A vote was taken and
the motion passed unanimously, 7-0.

The specific information required by the franchise for the type of transaction that
is the subject of this application has been set forth in specific answers required by this Form 394,
has previously been provided by transferor to the franchising authority or is attached to this
Exhibit 1.
r
August 14, 1998
ATTACHMENT TO EXHIBIT 1
1. AT&T is one of the most widely traded public companies in the United States with
approximately 1.624 billion shares outstanding held by more than 3.5 million shareowners at
December 31, 1997. No shareholder of AT&T holds more than 5% of the outstanding shares. TO
holds approximately 2.59% of the outstanding shares of AT&T.
2. AT&T hereby informs franchising authority, with respect to AT&T and- its senior
officers, that as of July 23, 1998, according to the current records maintained by AT&T Corp. and
upon reasonable inquiry of its directors and senior officers, in the last five years, none-have-been
adjudged bankrupt, have had a cable franchise revoked, or been found guilty by any court or
administrative agency in the United States of.
a) A violation of a security or antitrust law; or
b) A felony or any other crime involving moral turpitude.
3. AT&T believes that the merger with TO will provide customers with additional
competitive choices in the local exchange, exchange access, and Internet services markets. AT&T
and TO will be able to combine their assets to produce new competition to incumbent local exchange
carriers (ILECs) with respect to the provision of residential local exchange and exchange access
services. The merger is likely to enable the merged company to more quickly mount a challenge to
the dominant position currently held by ILEC service providers, thereby increasing competition in
both the local residential and business telephone service markets. With respect to Internet services,
the merger should create a stronger participant that will provide new and differentiated services in
an effort to challenge the more dominant competitors in the marketplace. The transaction thus will
promote the primary goal of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and foster facilities-based
competition for the delivery of two-way local residential voice communications.
The merger will also provide TCI with additional financial resources to upgrade its cable network on
an expedited basis. In order to carry out AT&Ts plans to provide telecommunications services over
TCFs cable facilities, AT&T and TCI will have to upgrade the TO network and architecture from
a one-way video delivery system to a high-speed system that will carry two-way voice services with
the toll-quality clarity and reliability that will be necessary to convince customers to switch from their
current ILEC carriers. Anticipated network upgrades include replacing.TCI's older one-way
amplifiers with two-way equipment, designing and constructing an infrastructure that will increase
the number of fiber nodes in TO's local network to bring the ratio of nodes to homes below one node
per 1000 homes, and adding newer and more innovative equipment to TCI's central offices, including
enhanced switching and billing systems. Additionally, AT&T will participate with its vendors in the
development and deployment of new set-top boxes in homes with technology that will permit the
complete integration of voice, data and video service
Moreover, the merger will enable the offering of additional innovative new consumer services. The
combination of AT&T and TO will enable the offering to consumers of a complete range of services,
`ail. co
August 14, 1998
including digital video, World Wide Web and Internet access, shopping, on-line bill paying, and other
forms of electronic commerce, in addition to a full range of local and long distance voice services
utilizing toll-quality Internet Protocol telephony.

FROM: Robert W. McLaurin, Town Manager
DATE: December 31, 1998
SUBJECT: Town Manager's Report
Fire Station Update
As you are aware, we budgeted funds in the FYI 999 budget to build a new two company fire station
somewhere north of the north roundabout. Specifically, we have been looking at a site either on the
Mountain Bell site or on the Spraddle Creek site near the existing parking lot for the 10" Mountain
Division Hut.
We will soon enter into contract with Fritzlin Pierce Architects to provide design services for this
facility. Fritzlin Pierce will be providing the programming for the space requirements and schematic
site planning analysis for both of the potential sites. The significant differences in access and
topography between the two sites preclude production of a single generic site analysis. For this
reason two schematic site plans will be provided, including appropriate turning radiuses grading
analysis, as well as resident and staff parking areas. These analysis will provide some better
indications to the suitability of each of the sites. The programming will include "double diagrams"
of the apparatus bays and their accessory spaces, staff offices and related spaces.
The following is a tentative schedule for this project:
December 1, 1998 Initiate schematic sight analysis and programming
January 30, 1999 Complete site selection and initiate design development
March 1, 1999 Initiate public review process
July 1, 1999 Conclude public review process

OCTOBER 1998
VAIL BUSINESS
TOWN OF VAIL REVIEW
December 30, 1998
The October Vail Business Review examines October sales tax collections. I've added a new
section that examines the summer season (May - October).
Overall October sales tax increased 4.4% with Retail decreasing 2.6%, Lodging increased
21.0%0, Food and Beverage increased 18.6% and Other (which includes items such as utilities, taxable
services i.e. plumbing and electrical and rentals or leases) decreased 5.6%. Summer collections
resulted in a 8.7% increase overall with Retail increasing 2.5%, Lodging increased 11.6%, Food and
Beverage increased 12.8% and Other increased 17.8%.
The Worldwide Church of God was here in October in 1997 and 1998. The Seibert Circle
dedication party was held 10/2/98.
Please remember when reading the Vail Business Review that it is produced from sales tax
collections, as opposed to actual gross sales.
If you have any questions or comments please feel free to call me at (970) 479-2125 or Steve
Thompson at (97D) 479-2116.

MEMORANDUM
.TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE:. December 28, 1998
SUBJECT: A request for a major amendment to Special Development District #4, Cascade
Village, to allow for the accessory use of the tennis facility for special events and
conference facilities, located at 1300 Westhaven Drive, Vail Cascade Hotel &
Club/Cascade Village Area A.
Applicant: Vail Cascade Hotel & Club, represented by Chris Hanen
Planner: George Ruther
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicant, Vail Cascade Hotel & Club, represented by Chris Hanen, is requesting a
major amendment to Special Development District #4 (Cascade Village) pursuant to Title
12, Chapter 9A of the Town of Vail Zoning Regulations. The major amendment is
intended to allow the Vail Cascade Hotel & Club to begin utilizing the existing tennis court
facilities for special events and conference facilities. If approved, a conference and
special events facility would become an accessory use in SDD #4.
The Vail Cascade Hotel & Club is currently under contract with the Vail Valley Foundation
to provide the use of the tennis facilities as the major press facility for the 1999 World
Alpine Ski Championships. In order to utilize the space for the championships, several
costly building improvements are required to bring the building into compliance with the
Uniform Building Code and the Uniform Fire Code. To better justify the costs of the
improvements, the Vail Cascade Hotel & Club wishes to use the tennis facility for other
special events and conference-types of uses into the future after the World
Championships. The applicant anticipates using the tennis facility as conference space
and for special events 6-8 times per year. In order to do so, a major amendment to SDD
#4 must be approved by the Town of Vail.
A copy of letters dated August 17, 1998 and December 4, 1998, from Chris Hanen to
George Ruther, have been attached for reference. The letters more completely explain
the applicant's current and future intentions.
II. SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT AMENDMENT PROCESS
Chapter 9 of the Town of Vail Zoning Regulations provides for the amendment of Special
Development Districts in the Town of Vail. The Zoning Regulations provide nine design
criteria, which shall be used as the principle criteria in evaluating the merits of amending
an established Special Development District. Of the nine design criteria, staff has
1
7OWNO*YAM
identified two, which are directly applicable to the proposed major amendment to Special
Development District #4. Staff will not be addressing each of the design criteria in detail.
Staff's review of the criteria is only of those criteria, which are directly related to the
amendment proposal.
1. Uses, activity and density, which provide a compatible, efficient and
workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
The tennis court facility is located in Area A of the Cascade Village development
area. Other uses currently located within Area A include a-289 room hotel,
residential condominiums available for short-term rent, a major health club facility,
20 - 25,000 square feet of conference space, restaurants, a movie theatre and
Colorado Mountain College. A mixed use hotel and fractional fee club is currently
under consideration by the Town on the "ruins" development site.
Staff believes the proposed major amendment to allow for the special event and
conference use of the tennis facility will not result in any negative impacts on
existing and potential uses in the area.
2. Compliance with the parking and loading requirements, as outlined in the
Zoning Regulations of the Town of Vail Municipal Code.
The applicant is proposing to convert the use of the existing tennis facility to
special events and conference-types of uses from time to time on an as needed
basis. With the exception of building improvements required to ensure the public
health and safety, no other building alterations are anticipated
The Zoning Regulations prescribe that the conference use of a space shall require
1 parking space for each 8 seats, based on seating capacity, or maximum building
occupancy, whichever is most restrictive. Parking for the Vail Cascade Hotel &
Club and tennis facility is provided in the parking structure located within Area A.
The applicant believes that there will only be a minimal increase in parking
demand resulting from the proposed special event and conference use of the
tennis facility. It is anticipated that the use of the tennis facility for special events
and conferences will be accessory to the hotel and club, and that attendees of the
special events and conferences will be guests of the hotel. Therefore, as guests
of the hotel, parking accommodations will have already been provided.
The Zoning Regulations further prescribe that a minimum of one loading/delivery
berth shall be provided. It is anticipated that the large, concrete paved area
located at the east end of the tennis facility will provide amble loading/delivery
space.
On August 24, 1998, the applicant appeared before the Town of Vail Planning and
Environmental Commission for a worksession to discuss the proposed major
amendments. During the worksession, the Planning and Environmental
Commission expressed concern over the loading and delivery circulation of the
proposed plan. In response to the Commission's concern, the applicant has
submitted alternative loading and delivery configurations for the use of the tennis
2
facility as a special events and conference facility. At this time, the Town of Vail
is reviewing the four alternatives and will determine the best alternative. Staff
would recommend that the applicant continue to work with the Town of Vail in
establishing a loading and delivery circulation plan for the tennis facility. Once a
final circulation plan has been determined and is agreed upon by the Town of Vail
and the applicant, all necessary improvements associated with the circulation plan
shall be implemented by the applicant. A copy of the four proposed circulation
plans has been attached for reference.
3. Public benefits to the community
When considering the establishment of, or an amendment to, a Special
Development District, the applicant shall demonstrate that there are public
benefits to the community of the proposal which outweigh any potential negative
impacts when requesting deviations from the Town's development standards:
The staff has identified the following public benefits of this proposal:
1. Increased tax revenue resulting from an increase in hotel occupancy
2. Increased opportunities to attract larger group conferences
3. Increased competition for Vail in the competitive national conference
market
4. Increased exposure of Vail in the destination resort market resulting in
repeat visits
5. Increased guest visits during the shoulder seasons
III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department is recommending approval of the applicant's
request for a major amendment to Special Development District #4, Cascade Village, to
allow for the accessory use of the tennis facility for special events and conference
facilities, located at Vail Cascade Hotel and Club. The staff's recommendation is based
upon the review of the criteria outlined in Section II of this memorandum.
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission chose to recommend approval of
the applicant's request, staff would recommend that the approval carry with it the
following condition:
1. That the applicant meet with the Town staff, prior to implementing and
utilizing the tennis facility for special events and/or conference facilities, to
determine a mutually agreed upon circulation plan for loading and delivery.
The circulation plan shall be implemented prior to the use of the space.
3
~r
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission chose to recommend approval of
the applicant's major amendment request, staff would recommend that the Commission
make the following finding:
"That the applicant's request for a major amendment to Special Development
District #4, to allow for the accessory use of the tennis facility for special events
and conference facility, will not result in uses, activities or densities that are
incompatible, nor inefficient or unworkable with surrounding uses and activities in
the vicinity of the Vail Cascade Hotel and Club. Additionally, the proposed
amendments comply with the purpose and intent of the parking and loading
requirements, as outlined in the Zoning Regulations of the Town of Vail Municipal
Code. Lastly, the applicant has demonstrated that there are public benefits to the
community resulting from the implementation of the proposed major amendment,
which outweigh any potential negative impact to the community. The public
benefits realized by the community are outlined in Section II of the staff
memorandum."

Re: Vail Cascade Tennis Facility-1999 World Alpine Ski Championships and Beyond.
Dear George:
This letter responds to your request for an informational outline of how the Vail Cascade
Tennis Facility might be used for the 1999 World Alpine Ski Championships and potentially,
other functions thereafter.
In an effort to simplify this understanding of our needs, I will define potential uses into three
categories. They are:
In-House Functions
These would be defined as group functions which would be housed within the Vail Cascade
Hotel complex and would require no additional parking requirements than are typically required
currently when we experience full occupancy, as we now do on a regular basis.
The profile of such groups would likely be one large group occupying all, or the majority of,
the hotel. They would most likely utilize our existing conference space for meetings and food
functions and the tennis courts for tradeshows utilizing 8'x8' and 10'x10' exhibits. Exhibit
space requirements could range in number from 40-120 booths. The potential also exists that
the tennis courts would be'used for general session meetings for 300-600 people (theatre style
or classroom style meetings), or a combination of a general session and exhibits, which would
allow exhibitors greater exposure to delegates, which is always a priority. It is possible that
food could be served from warmer boxes (breakfast, lunch, dinners or coffee breaks), but not
prepared, in the tennis facility.
Town-Wide Functions
This use would be very similar to the "in-house" use described above, with the exception that
additional housing to that of the Vail Cascade Hotel would be required, resulting in additional
occupancy requirements in the tennis courts and additional parking requirements. It is
anticipated that this scenario might increase tennis court occupancy requirements for meetings
up to the 500-800 range. Such a scenario might also not require meeting space, but rather

might allow each lodging property to house guests, utilize each property's conference space for
meetings and food functions and utilize the tennis facility for exhibits only.
Parking challenges could be managed at the time of booking the group by requiring that shuttle
service be provided between properties, rather than allowing additional private vehicles to park
in the Vail Cascade's parking facility. A similar situation which has successfully been managed
each April for the past few years is that of the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA)
group. In this instance, 2000+ young adults dine in the Vail Cascade conference center space
within a two and one-half hour period. These individuals are transported via shuttle from a
variety of Lionshead based lodging properties to Vail Cascade Hotel in a very organized and
well-managed fashion, without incident.
Special Events
These types of functions may or may not require lodging and would include community events
such as the 1999 World Alpine Ski Championships, or could include other events such as
musical concerts or other one time day or evening events accommodating up to 1000-1500
people. Outside events not utilizing lodging would likely present parking challenges which
would need to be managed.
Quite frankly, other than the World Alpine Ski Championships, these types of events would be
of very low priority and would not likely be the type of event which would be solicited.
1999 World Alpine Ski Championships
The Vail Cascade Hotel and Club will serve as the Official Press Center Hotel and the Vail
Cascade tennis courts are intended to serve as the International Broadcast Center during the
championships, with set up beginning on January 3 and breakdown/departure from the facility
on February 22, 1999. The actual dates of the championship events will be from January 31 to
February 14, 1999.
This International Broadcast Center will require approximately 25,000 square feet of space to
accommodate individual offices, studios, portable restrooms, limited food service and telephone
service(s). Occupancy at any given time is not expected to exceed 200-400 persons.
This same facility served the identical function during the 1989 World Alpine Ski
Championships and our understanding from those involved is that there were no access or
egress issues or problematic incidents related to access or egress.
Summary
Given the premise that we will invest substantial capital in the tennis facility to meet current
town codes in an effort to accommodate the World Alpine Ski Championships, Vail Cascade is
interested in using this facility upon occasion in future years following the Championships for
the aforementioned uses described in this letter.
2
A
Although the Championships are an exciting event to host and will provide increased
recognition for the Vail Valley in future years, the short-term benefits from an economic
standpoint are minimal for our particular business. In fact, we estimate that displaced revenue
will amount to $1,700,000 due to lost room (complimentary rooms, discounted rooms and
inefficient arrival/departure patterns), food, beverage and conference center rental revenue. As
an example, conference space will be required prior to and following the Championships for set
up and breakdown. During this time, Vail Cascade is unable to utilize this space as a tool to
sell hotel rooms, food and beverage to other groups. Since 70% of our annual occupancy is
generated by group business, this is important to us. However, Vail Cascade, in an effort to be
a responsible participant within the community, is willing to support this event.
Of those uses previously described, our primary focus would be to accommodate the "in-house
functions" which would have minimal or no impact upon parking requirements. Both "town
wide events" and "special events" would represent a much lesser priority.
As I have expressed to town representatives during our past meetings, we are not financially
prepared to increase our capital commitment past current budget to improve the tennis facility
as a permanent conference facility. We are not prepared, for example, to install permanent
restrooms. Since we do not envision a frequent need to use the tennis facility for conference
related functions, we have discussed with the town the possibility of amending the SDD to limit
the number of functions (conference/trade shows) allowed by the town each year in the tennis
facility as a means of limiting some of the life safety related capital improvements which would
be required by a more permanent facility. I would expect that a maximum of six (which would
probably exceed our needs) functions per year would allow us reasonable latitude to
accommodate our needs.
It should be kept in mind that use of the tennis facility is not uncomplicated since it requires
costly ($10-15,000) covering of the court surfaces during each use, displacement of tennis
members and financial concessions to them during special use periods, as well as other
challenges which would make use of this space desirable only in a limited number of
circumstances.
We feel that the ability to use this space would make available to us a new market niche and
enable us to accommodate those types of conferences requiring more facility than we currently
have to offer. Vail Cascade currently offers 289 hotel rooms, 70 rental condominiums and 20-
25,000 square feet of meeting space (varies winter to summer). Access to the tennis courts
would provide an additional 28,000 square feet of facility. It would enable us to keep business
in Vail which might otherwise be driven to Keystone Resort (77,000 square feet of meeting
space, 16,000 of which is in one facility), Snowmass Conference Center (40,000 square feet)
and other competitors. As an example, a member of our sales staff advised me today of a
potential client (an Association) which has used the Snowmass Conference Center for the past
five years and is looking for a new location. They would consider our facility for a July, 2000
conference. Without the tennis facility, we cannot accommodate this piece of business, but the
client has expressed that we would be seriously considered if we could offer an additional
15,000 square feet of space. We have another potential piece of business for the month of
3
1April, 1999 which will advise us pending the outcome of whether or not we can provide the
tennis facility. Other examples of groups which we have lost due to a lack of space is attached.
George, you requested that I provide an existing plan of the facility marked to indicate both the
fire system design and the emergency lighting design. We are unable-to provide this at this
time since our director of resort maintenance is out of town until August 28. However, Mike
McGee, along with other town staff members, has been directly involved in inspection of the
facility and discussions with our Director of Resort Maintenance in developing life safety
design options which would be acceptable in our facility. Mr. McGee has offered to attend the
PEC hearing on Monday, August 24 -to express his comfort level with design options to date.
It would be helpful if we could receive feedback from the PEC on Monday, August 24 to
determine if our making improvements to this facility is economically feasible so that we can
hopefully keep this project moving forward in an effort to be sufficiently prepared for the
Championships in January, 1999.
Thanks again for your cooperation and assistance with this process. Should you have any
que . ns, please let me know.
inc ely,

Re: Vail Cascade Club SDD Major Amendment Application (Tennis Courts)
Dear George:
The intent of this letter is to provide historical background and set forth conclusions regarding
the anticipated impact upon the existing Vail Cascade Club parking facility from the occasional
use of the Vail Cascade tennis court area by conferences. The use would be primarily for
tradeshows and meetings. Since it is difficult to quantify statistically specific parking use
throughout the year due to the diverse uses and the change in demand throughout the year by
the various users, I have attempted to provide a conceptual rationale based upon historical
trends. Following are bullet point comments which will hopefully offer some clarification to
questions regarding parking:
• Vail Cascade Hotel and Club (VCHC) offers 421 parking spaces on three parking levels.
• VCHC currently provides 291 hotel rooms and suites.
• VCHC has historically provided additional parking for the Penthouse Condominiums (8
units), The Vail Cascade Club, Colorado Mountain College, the Cascade Village Movie
Theater and Clancy's Restaurant.
• VCHC manages and controls all parking in this facility.
• Parking requirements and demand vary continually throughout the year based primarily
upon the following factors:
1. The season
2. Guest profile (group or transient guest)
3. Geographic profile of guest (Front Range/regional or national/international destination
traveler)
• The parking situation at Vail Cascade is currently very manageable and during those few
times during the year when parking demand is at capacity, management has the ability to
relocate employee parking as needed.
• Both Front Range and Colorado regional guests have a tendency to drive their own vehicles
rather than shuttle to Vail. This creates parking demand.
• Guests from outside of Colorado primarily use the airport shuttle service when travelling to
Vail. This reduces parking demand.
• During the months of January, February and March, when hotel occupancies typically
range from 76-91 % approximately 85 % of all guests (both group and transient) use a
shuttle service. The higher occupancy month of December also experiences this identical
trend. This dramatically reduces demand for parking.

.v
• In July and August, when hotel occupancies typically range from 71-86%, group business
historically represents 75-85 % of overall hotel occupancy. Of these group guests,
approximately 75-85 % tend to use shuttle service. However, since the transient business is
more regional in origin, 75-80% of those guests drive their own vehicles to Vail, creating
more parking demand.
• During the remaining months of April, May, June, September, October and November,
resort occupancies range from 19-65 % (averaging 39 % throughout that period) and the mix
of shuttle use versus vehicle use is insignificant pursuant to demand for parking. There are
no parking issues during these months.
Summarizing this information in a meaningful way as it relates to this request to expand the use
of the tennis facility, there has never been a shortage of parking during the winter and shoulder
season periods due to the hotel's marketing focus on attracting predominantly national and
international group customers who have historically used shuttle service to Vail. The other
factor relates to the lack of business demand during the shoulder months. The greatest demand
in the parking facility is generated during the months of July and August when more of our
guests drive vehicles from Front Range and regional markets within or near Colorado.
The intention of VCHC management is to use this facility to assist in increasing hotel
occupancies during those periods which have historically experienced minimal demand and
lower occupancies (the shoulder seasons). These are also times when parking capacity is not an
issue. The targeted use would not typically be during those months where the depth of demand
is much higher.
It is not intended that use would be frequent and it is anticipated that the users of the facility
would be housed within the Vail Cascade Hotel and Club. In situations where users would be
housed in outside lodging facilities, it would be set forth in advance and required that shuttle
service be provided between those outside facilities and VCHC when appropriate.
It is our perspective that approved use of this facility would not create unmanageable parking
issues and should that potential exist in some specific situation, the ability exists to manage such
a situation to an acceptable- level. The benefit of such an arrangement would be to "level out"
hotel occupancies throughout the year, increase business and attract additional visitors to Vail
during typically slower business periods.
I hope that this letter addresses appropriate parking concerns. Please contact me if you have
questions.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 28, 1998

Vail Town Manager Vail Mayor
TOWN OF VAIL LISTS TOP 10 MUNICIPAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN 1998
(Vail)--With 1998 coming to a close, Vail Town Manager Bob McLaurin and Vail Mayor
Rob Ford have described 1998 as a productive year for the town. Top accomplishments
for the municipality include:
1. Approval of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan. After more than two
years in the making, this plan is considered to be the most significant community
reinvestment milestone in Vail since the 1960s. Implementation calls for more
than $50 million in public investment along with an estimated $200 million in
private investment. The plan is to serve as a catalyst to re-energize Vail, both
economically and visually over the next 20 years. The plan was approved by a
unanimous Town Council vote on Dec. 15.
2. Vail Village Reinvestment. Vail Village saw its largest construction season ever,
with 16 public and private projects totaling $31 million. Those projects include
more than 50 new lodging units, facelifts to numerous storefronts and lodges,
installation of a snowmelt system along the stairs and walkways at the Village
Transportation Center, plus creation of a tribute to Vail's most notable founder,
Pete Seibert.
3. Groundbreaking for Red Sandstone Creek Affordable Housing. Ground was
..broken on the 18-unit development on July 28, representing Vail's third
affordable housing development in as many years. The $2.6 million for-sale
development, a partnership between the Town of Vail and the Eagle River Water
and Sanitation District, features two one-bedroom, 12 two-bedroom and four
three-bedroom deed-restricted units with attached one-car garages. Twelve
units have been reserved for critical TOV and water district employees, while six
other units were awarded to the public during a lottery on Nov. 9. Prices range
from $105,000 for a one-bedroom unit, $138,500 for a two-bedroom and
$178,500 for a three-bedroom home.
4. Completion of TOV Seasonal Housing at Buzzard Park. This 24-unit complex,
located at the east end of the Public Works facility across from the Vail Golf
Course was competed in June for use by TOV seasonal workers, such as bus
drivers, as well as other essential municipal employees. The $2.6 million
complex features 21 studio units and three one-bedroom units.

5. Common Ground. This citizen-based planning effort was launched in March and
invited citizens to assist in identifying: 1) which community uses in addition to
housing are most important; 2) where those community uses, including facilities,
parks and open space, should be located with the Town of Vail; and 3) how to .
fund affordable housing. After a spirited public hearing on June 30, the Council
voted 6-1 (Jewett against) to approve the Common Ground recommendation,
which calls for adding 130 acres of open space, four new parks, 11 housing
developments, two sites for community facilities as well as a funding plan -for
housing. The plan was modified on Sept. 15 when the Council voted 6-1 (Jewett
against) to: 1) eliminate use of the Real Estate Transfer Tax as a future funding
source for housing; 2) reserve land purchased with funds from the Real Estate
Transfer Tax, such as Donovan Park, as a last resort for housing; and 3) pursue
a list of 20-plus citizen ideas to augment the town's housing program. As the
Common Ground plan moved into its first implementation action, the Council
voted 6-1 (Jewett against) to approve a six-unit housing and neighborhood park
concept for the Garmisch-Arosa site in West Vail at its Nov. 17 meeting.
6. Promotion of Russell Forrest to Community Development Director.
Russell Forrest was promoted to Community Development Director on March 11
following a six-week period as acting director. Forrest replaced Susan Connelly
who resigned in January. Forrest joined the TOV staff in 1992 when he was
hired to pursue the town's open space and environmental interests as Vail's first
senior environmental policy planner.
7. Transportation, Security Planning for Vail 99. Much effort was spent in 1998 on
coordination of transportation and security components for the World Alpine Ski
Championships which comes to Vail Jan. 30 through Feb. 14, 1999.
8. Berry Creek Fifth Planning. Joint planning by the Eagle County Recreation
Authority (Vail is a 60 percent partner) and the Eagle County School District has
pooled the 105-acre Berry Creek Fifth property with the adjacent 108-acre Miller
Ranch property. With an intergovernmental agreement now under consideration,
this regional partnership would create opportunities for development of school
facilities, recreation amenities and housing, as well as dedicated open space.
9. Vail Public Safety Communication Center Consolidates Eagle Valley 911 Calls.
On June 28, the Vail Police Department dispatch center began answering all 911
calls from throughout the Eagle Valley. The expansion followed the relocation of
the Colorado State Patrol dispatch center from Eagle to Grand Junction. In
addition to providing services for safety agencies in Vail, Avon and Edwards, the
central dispatch center now takes calls from the Eagle County Sheriff's Office,
Eagle Police Department, Western Eagle County Ambulance District, Eagle
County Animal Control, Eagle Fire Protection District and the Gypsum Volunteer
Fire Department.
10. Increased Flexibility for Minor Remodels. On July 21, following up on a
campaign pledge, Councilman Michael Arnett saw approval of an ordinance
intended to make homes in Vail more livable. The legislation, approved

i

unanimously, allows residential renovations of up to 500 sq. ft. (using allowable
floor area) without triggering costly requirements to bring the remainder of the
property up to current design standards. In the past, owners of some of Vail's
older properties had wanted to add a bedroom, for example, but found
themselves saddled with a town requirement to bury overhead utilities, or add
new siding to the home as part of the project. In the end, many of those
improvements'were scrapped because of the additional financial hardships. Also
this year, Councilmembers voted to grant similar flexibility for multi-family
dwellings.
In 1999, McLaurin and Ford both anticipate another active year with projects to
include:
• World Alpine Ski Championships
• Employee Generation Ordinance
• Lionshead Master Plan Implementation (legislate zoning changes, public view
corridors)
• Common Ground Implementation (construction of Arosa-Garmisch housing and
neighborhood park, among others)
• Community Facilities Planning
• Economic Development Planning
• Fire Station Planning
• TOV Budget Assessment (to include exploration of new revenue sources, among
other adjustments)
The Vail Town Council will review the 1999 work plan at a half-day retreat on Jan. 4.

Advertising Tips for Family Child Care Providers
Starting a family child care business can be challenging and exciting. Once you've .
developed your goals, become licensed, registered, or cert ified, and organized your
setting, you are ready to market your newly established business.
As a child care provider, you offer one of the most vital services to working parents.
However, if they don't know you exist, they can't use your service. Remember, you
are a business, and as such you need to advertise.
It is not as complicated or costly as you might think. This list includes many ideas that
require only a time commitment; others require only a small amount of money.
• Sign up with the local child care referral service.
• Take an active role in your child care association, early education groups or
classes and parenting groups. They offer education, support and possible child
care leads.
• Design posters and put them in grocery stores and other neighborhood spots.
• Consider a small ad in a local neighborhood weekly. The cost is fairly low and you
will be reaching parents in your vicinity.
• When placing classified ads, be specific as 'to your service, especially if your
service is night care, weekends, etc.
• State in the ad if you are licensed and/or belong to the food program.
• If you choose to create and design promotional pieces, never use design or picture
copied from a book or magazine because it may be copyrighted.
• Member of your church or synagogue and of every club or organization you
belong to can provide free work-of-mouth advertising.
• The families you serve are your best marketing tool. Demonstrate quality care and
they will promote you to others.

NEW YEAR'S EVE IN VAIL
Vail has grown to become a popular gathering spot for New Year's Eve revelers, especially along
Bridge Street in Vail Village. An estimated 20,000 people are expected to take part in Vail's
New Year's Eve festivities. Our challenge is to meet and exceed our guests' expectations of fun
and enjoyment, while maintaining a safe and secure environment for everyone.
As a merchant or business owner in Vail, here's how you can help maintain this critical balance:
• Encourage our underage guests to attend the Rave in the New Year party at Dobson Ice
Arena from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. New Year's Eve. Tickets are $15 at the door, or S 12 in
advance. Ticket outlets are at the Vail Village and Lionshead information booths, Poor
Richard's Music Store in Avon and Dobson Arena.
• Hang a "Common Sense" poster or newspaper announcement in your shop or restaurant
window. These announcements, which were used during the Fourth of July holiday, were
distributed to local businesses on Dec. 19 and will appear in the local newspapers this
week.
• During the close of business, please remember to bring in anything you use to prop your
door open and other objects that might entice vandalism of your store window.
• Secure your store's doors and windows and remove all cash from your registers, as well
as make nightly deposits of daily receipts.
• Keep some lights on that illuminate the inside of your store.
• Call 911 immediately if you sense a problem. If a situation seems suspicious to you, it
probably is.
• Lock your vehicle and remove any valuables from sight.
• Encourage your guests to store and lock their ski and snowboard equipment in a secure
location.
To assist with the sheer volume of people, the Police Department plan for New Year's Eve
includes the following:
• 29 of our 32 officers will be on the streets, plus as many as 10 additional officers from
other law enforcement agencies to handle crowd control, especially from 11 p.m. to 2
a.m. on Dec. 31. Since many of these extra officers have signed-on to work the World
Alpine Ski Championships, their presence on New Year's Eve will be helpful in that they
will experience what it will be like here later on in the season.
• We're asking parents to arrange for their children to come home following the Rave in
the New Year party at Dobson Arena, or to find a safe, supervised activity and not to be
on Bridge Street past midnight.
• You'll see increased police presence along Bridge Street and on the bus routes to help
curtail public drunkenness and underage drinking. Again, this is because public safety for
individuals and others is our primary concern.
RECYCLEDPAPER
• The Town of Vail Municipal statutes make it illegal for any person to possess any open
container of an alcoholic beverage within the Town of Vail. The Town of Vail also has a
closed container prohibited ordinance that makes it illegal for any person to possess any
closed alcoholic beverage from 6 p.m. on Dec. 31 to 6 a.m. on Jan. 1 of each year in Vail
Village. The Police Department is asking for your cooperation to ensure a safe new year.
Please post these important phone numbers and contacts for your employees:
911 For Police, Fire and Medical emergency calls.
479-2200 For non-emergency calls to the Vail Public Safety Communication Center
479-2250 For non-emergency calls to the Vail Fire Department
479-2226 For road condition updates 24-hours a day
Thank you in advance for helping to make the upcoming celebration fun, safe and enjoyable for
everyone. If you have any questions or would like to share additional ideas, please contact me at
479-2200.

RE: Town Council Retreat - EVHA Consensus Goals
A representative for the Homeowners Association will be unable to attend the Town Council
retreat scheduled for January 18, 1998. The Association's Board of Directors desires the Town
Council to take into consideration, in defining your objectives for 1999, the results of our efforts
to establish and implement consensus goals among the organizations with which we frequently af-
filiate. We note that of the five short term objectives set forth for 1998, only one was accom-
plished.
The following statement was published in the Association Annual Report and Whitepaper that
was distributed to property owners and the community in April, 1998. The consensus goals have
been reaffirmed for 1999 by the Association's Board of Directors. We requested that both the
long and short term goals specified in the following statement be included in the Town Council
objectives for 1999.
Consensus Goals
Following the Association's annual meeting in December, 1997, there have been broad ranging
public and private discussions regarding the important economic and social issues that challenge
the community. These discussions have led to an emerging consensus on the following goals to
achieve the central theme of improving the competitiveness of Vail's service-based resort
economy and society.
¦Economic and physical rejuvenation of the Town Centers
¦Beautification of the Town Centers
¦Increase and upgrade guest accommodations
¦Expand employee housing
¦Improve traffic management, pedestrian and vehicular circulation, parking, mass transporta-
tion and loading and delivery.
¦Pursue philanthropic support for community facilities and improvements that enhance the
quality of life for guests, residents, employees and nonresident property owners.
These goals will take time for the community to fully complete. In the meantime, there is a

pressing need to reinforce the idea of forward momentum by agreeing upon and implementing
reasonably attainable projects that will be unifying achievements that motivate the community to-
wards accomplishing its broader goals.
The following attainable projects are to be accomplished during 1998. The projects are en-
dorsed by the Homeowners Association in consultations with Vail Associates, the Vail Village
Merchants Association and Commercial Property Owners Association and the Town of Vail.
¦Formalization of an ongoing, systematic review and reporting of socioeconomic indicators
for the Town of Vail and region.
¦Implementation of a comprehensive signage and street lighting improvements in Vail Village.
¦Resolve and adopt a planned approach to service and delivery issues.
¦Effect an amendment to the zoning regulation, similar to the GRFA infill amendment for
single family and duplex zone districts, that serves as an incentive to property owners to upgrade
multi-family buildings and the residential units within the building.
¦Identify improvement projects and facilities that could be financed through philanthropic sup-
port.
Subject to the presentation of completed proposals, the Association is considering its position
regarding the endorsement of Vail Village streetscape, parks and infrastructure improvement
projects; the development of community facilities; changes to zoning development standards and
the rezoning of specified properties in Lionshead; and policies, standards or projects relating to
the development of employee housing.

Dear Ross:
Thank you for your letter received here at the Town of Vail on December 29, 1998, in regard to
the draft letter of agreement about managed parking at Ford Park. It appears that the Recreation
District is willing to participate in managed parking if it does not interfere with major events
hosted by the VRD.
I would like to remind you that when we developed the Ford Park Master Plan in 1997, it was the
Recreation District that strongly opposed any additional parking in Ford Park. As a result of no
additional parking, some form of managed parking was a foregone conclusion when there are
conflicting events scheduled within the park (please see attachment).
Last year we implemented, with the help of all user groups, a managed parking master calendar
for conflicting events where paid and managed only parking were integral components. Although
we experienced some first season miscommunication, the program was deemed successful and
necessary to reduce congestion, improve safety, and ensure equity for all special events within the
park.
The District now seems intent on playing both sides of the fence where it involves the management
of limited parking for events at Ford Park. Your letter states that managed parking is OK for
other groups but not for Recreation District sponsored athletic events. This is in conflict w/the.
approved tenets of the Ford Park Master Plan. As a result, I believe it is in the best interest of the
overall community and the user groups that we continue to manage parking at Ford Park where
there are conflicting events, regardless of the VRD's current position. Staff members from all
user groups, including VRD, have worked diligently to develop consensus in formulating this
year's master event calendar. The determination of conflicting events and dates has been reviewed
at length and agreed upon when either paid or managed only parking in Ford Park is appropriate.
i
There are no other options at this point other than continuing to manage parking at Ford Park.
The Vail Town Council as steward for this remarkable community park must ensure safety, equity
of use, and easy accessibility for everyone. Therefore, we would like your board and staff's full
commitment and support for the upcoming summer of 1999's Ford Park managed parking. In
fact, we are counting on your full partnership in this effort. It is distressing to me personally that
the VRD seems to be taking a rather aggressive position against the Town of Vail as we attempt
to work together. Such an aggressive attitude is certainly not constructive to the long-term
management of Ford Park and very definitely is detrimental to our relationship as lessor. and
lessee.
We will be discussing this tomorrow afternoon at our regular work session (January 5, 1999, at
2:00 P.M.) and would welcome any additional comments you may wish to offer. Thank you again
for your written response to the draft letter of agreement.
Very truly yours,.

Re: November Sales Tax Collections
Attached is the sales tax worksheet with collections through December 31, 1998. We have
received the majority of the November sales tax returns. I do not expect November sales tax to
increase much from this number until we receive the quarterly returns and allocate one third of
that collection to November. The Holiday Craft Fair was held in November in 1997 and 1998. In
November 1998 we also had the Return of the Champions Parade and Street Party and the Vail
Valley Wine Auction.
