Attn.: Ceil Folz
Dear Ceil,
As you are well aware, the retail business at the Laughing Monkey has suffered
greatly each of the last three years (including 1999) due to the stage construction in
the area of the Children's Fountain. Each year, you and I have spoken regarding
the size of the stage, as well as the amount of time needed to construct it and take it
down. I have also requested adequate signs to let potential customers know that
shops around and below the Fountain exist and are open for business. This year
was no exception. Anticipating the same situation, concerns regarding the stage
were brought up at a Vail Village Merchants' Association meeting last spring.
Representatives from the Foundation suggested a staging committee, and several of
us raised our hands to participate, among them, Jose Guzman, Herman Staufer, and
myself. I called several times to try to find out when the committee was going to
meet, and could rind out no information about this until this fall, October, or
beginning of November. At that time, Scott Blume met with me at the Children's
Fountain. He outlined the plans for the stage, and I gave him some ideas to lessen
the impact on my store and the other neighboring merchants. Among these ideas
were:
1. Construct the stage quickly, build it somewhere else and drop it into place in
order to avoid the three weeks of construction which we just experienced.
2. To have either a removable panel in the twelve foot high backdrop, or to grade
it down on the west side to allow more visibility to my shop and to the stairs
going down to Gore Creek.
3. To angle the stage more towards Checkpoint Charlie with the back of it against
the west side of Pepi's, thus opening up the area.
4. To strongly prohibit parking of the workers putting up the stage unless
absolutely necessary. (On one day last week workers were asked to move their
vehicle, and their reply was "don't hassle us about parking here - we're
volunteers." This was one day after you and I talked about the parking
problem. Another day, a vehicle was parked there with the doors open, and the
radio blasting so the workers could listen to music as they worked on the stage.)
Unfortunately for me, none of the ideas I gave were even considered, as the
plans were already in place long before my meeting with Scott. (He got back to
me a few days after our meeting to tell me that nothing would be changed.
There was an ever so slight angling of the stage, however nothing to aid with the
obstruction of the view into the Fountain area.)
5. You and I also discussed signs to be put up during the Championships indicating
that neighboring shops were open. You agreed to this, but said that on award
days, the signs would be taken down at noon. I requested that they remain up
Feb-02-99 04:38P PLANET EARTH 970 9269497 P.03
r
all the time thinking that once we had people in there, if they saw the signs
perhaps they would look for our shops. You said that just would not happen.
6. My final idea was to remove the high portion of the stage the night of February
14", after the last awards ceremony, thus giving us visibility for the last day of
Presidents Weekend. Ceil, you promised me on the phone last week that this
would happen, and I must hold you to that promise.
I am sorry that the Foundation chose not to consider any of these ideas. It is very
difficult to be supportive of an organization which is not supportive or sensitive to
the concerns of the entities directly affected by its activities. Everyone from the
Foundation has been very polite, and has returned my phone calls, but that is not
the same thing as truly working together with the business community.
Sincerely,
Ghiqui Hoffmann

Our {afro= has received a number of complaints from. the owner of the 742A portion of this duplex, Betty fluffy,
concerning the gas appliuces laetated 111 the Cetapisi'A garage. While researcbitig our records in responding to
those camplaints, we discovored that the plumbiog pcimit connected with the Carnpisi remodel, permit P96-

in r~ H ion of in floor radiant heat, received a final inspection approval on November 19, 1996, bait that Otto'
computer records diet net show a final inspection approval for the building permit, permit number B96-0179,
I visited the property can July 24, looked at the gas-fired boiler and water heater and took notes regarding their
spccifis.atfum and the mrioer iu which they wore installed and vented. When I returned io my office, I also
rosearched the specifications and installation instructfons for the specific appliances and the applicable
mquircrncnts of the 1991 Uniform Mcchanlcal Code (MM) as adopted by the town, regarding the installation.
Onc items} that I noted was that no combustion air, sainctimes roferrcd to as "make-up air," had been provided for
the aPPU*aces fns±sllcd in tho _ -e. Although mac
~ y persona involved with and knowledgeable about the
•installatirin of boating oquiptriant are of too, opitioti that combustion air need not be provided in garages because
sufncient air can be obtained through infiltration under and around the garage door, ctc., the LMC permits
L;~inbustion air to bo through the infiltration method R* if the volume of the space coatainin: the appliances is
01110equaal to 50 cubic foot for every 1,400 73tuh of input to th lianc s. In this case, the volume of the single-car
garage is not large enough to be considered "upconfincd space," so the LWC requires that additional combustion
air be provided. An acceptable Solution it1 this instance was to provldo two (2) combustion air grilles in the
50 exieiior wall of the garage bebird the bailer and water heater, Each, of these grilles would need to have an area
Qf at least 100 square inches, with one Iaeated within 12 inches ofthc floor of the space and one located within
L 12 inches of the ceiling of the spare, respectively. For rofercncc, these provisions are contained within Chaprer 6
ahd Table 6-A of the 1991 UNIC. I taotiised Mr. Campisi of this issue by telephorr and he roceeded to rjrako
the a.,rangcrncats to have the co bastion air grilles installed. eUe'+& owf"

Ms. Guffey,
At your request, I reviewed the installation of the boiler and hot water heater installed in
the second unit of the duplex in which you live to determine if the installation was
adequate to ensure acceptable air quality in your residence. in performing this review, I
performed an inspection of your residence, discussed the installation specifications with a
mechanical contractor, and reviewed industrial ventilation manuals for proper installation
instructions.
According to representatives of the Town of Vail's Safety and Inspection Services
Division, the installation of the appliances in the garage below your living room has been
done according to town building codes, therefore no problems should exist- However
the installation does not meet good engineering practice and may be a nuisance or a
health threat regardless of the code application- The fact that you continue to experience
adverse health effects from exposure to the exhaust gases in your residence is a testament
to the need for more stringent application of the Uniform Mechanical Code.
In general, here are a few items you may want to consider discussing with the Town to
slake a determination as to whether the installation presents a hazard to your health.
The Uniform Mechanical Code recommends that exhaust air from a combustion
appliance be vented vertically through the roof to a point at least two feet higher than any
structure within 10 feet. This configuration represents the ideal way of allowing the
combustion gases to mix with the ambient air and become diluted before any person may
be exposed to the gases. Exhaust gases represents a complex and noxious mixture of
carbon monoxide, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, particulates, and hydrocarbons- These
bases should not be allowed to enter the living spaces of the residence as a variety of
adverse health effects may be experienced.
The exhaust vents from the units are required to be Type B vents that are of the same
inside diameter than the exhaust from the appliances themselves. Type B vents are
insulated vents (i.e. double wall) to prevent the transmission of heat to combustible
materials nearby such as house framing. The joints in the pipe sections are required to be
taped to prevent the release of exhaust gases to the room air.

FEB-02-1999 16:19 WALSH ENVIRONMENTAL 3034430367 P.03
Also, the terminal end of the vents should be situated to prevent the infiltration of exhaust
gases to the house. The present configuration has the terminals near a garage door, your
living room door and an operable window. The infiltration of gases into the garage can
allow the gases to enter your residence by diffusion through the common floor/ceiling
you share with the garage. Also, the gases can enter your residence through open
windows and doors.
At one time, you mentioned that a Fire Department representative noted a carbon
monoxide monitor in the neighbor's garage as reading 56 parts per million. This
indicates that there is either a leak in the exhaust venting system or that the exhaust gases
are entering the garage through the door. Either way, once they are in the garage, they
will diffuse into the remainder of the building including your residence.
In October and November of 1998, Walsh performed air monitoring in your residence
with the objective of determining whether carbon monoxide was entering your residence
from the heating units. This monitoring indicated that only low levels of carbon
monoxide were present during the monitoring period, however the time averaging period
of this sampling was set to 5 minutes so that short duration exposures would not be
noticeable. The weather conditions were mild during this test also, therefore the
sampling results may not be representative of average conditions. I recommend
resampling the air in your residence under different conditions and instrument settings to
determine the true impact of the exhaust to your indoor air.
Please call me if you have any questions-
Sincerely,
David D_ Gerow, CIH, CSP

SUBJECT: Results of Indoor Air Monitoring at your Residence (742 A Sandy
Lane) and Duplex. Neighbor's Heater Exhaust Sample in Vail,
Colorado (`VALSH 3907-010)
Dear Betty:
The purpose of this letter is to provide you with the results of the indoor air monitoring
performed between October 28 and November 8, 1998 at your residence and the exhaust
grab sample collected from your duplex neighbor's heater exhaust on November 8, 1998.
The indoor air monitoring and exhaust sample collection were performed to characterize
any air impact from your neighbor's heater exhaust system.
Indoor Air Monitoring: The indoor air monitoring was performed with a Metrosonics
501 Indoor Air Quality Monitor. The monitor measured the carbon' monoxide and carbon
dioxide concentrations inside your residence. Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are
expected to be elevated if the indoor air was impacted by your neighbor's heater exhaust
system. The direct-reading monitor averaged and recorded the carbon monoxide and
carbon dioxide data every five minutes during its operation. During the first few days of
operation, the record button had been inadvertently shut off a few times, causing some
data to be lost. However, all data after November 1, 1998 were recorded.
The attached figures (dated chronologically) provide the carbon monoxide and carbon
dioxide results- The carbon dioxide data generally ranged between 300-500 parts per
million (ppm). This range would be expected in the indoor air of a residence. The
carbon monoxide data do not appear on 4 of the 6 figures because carbon monoxide was
generally not detected in the indoor air (detection limit: 1 ppm). Carbon monoxide was
detected intermittently in the indoor air, yet the average concentrations were less than 1
ppm. These data indicate that the indoor air at your residence does not appear to be
impacted by elevated concentrations of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Sampling of Neighbor's Heater Exhaust System: The exhaust from the heater exhaust
system was sampled using a direct-reading carbon monoxide meter and a SUMMA,
sampling canister (a 6-liter sphere under negative pressure that collects an air sample
when its valve is opened). A Passport air monitor measured the carbon monoxide
concentrations being released from the heater's exhaust system during a 5-minute
duration (while heater was functioning) on October 28 and November 8, 1998. The peak

carbon monoxide conce„<<4aons measured during each 5-minute evaluation were 15 ppm
and 21 ppm, respectively.
The SUMMA canister was sent to Quanterra Labortories in City of Industry, California
and analyzed by the Environmental Protection Agency's Toxic Organics Method 15.
This method measures concentrations of 50 volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The
effluent sample was also analyzed for other VOCs (tentatively identified compounds, or
TICs). The TICS analytical process provides an estimate of the concentrations of
different VOC groups (some of which would be expected in the exhaust of a heater). The
attached results indicate that significant levels of VOCs were not being emitted from the
exhaust system when the grab sample was collected. The VOC concentrations found in
the exhaust are similar to those found in background indoor and outdoor air in urban
areas (such as Denver). The exhaust may also contain irritating compounds that were not
analyzed in the sample (e.g., nitrogen or sulfur oxides).
Although significant levels of VOCs were not found in the exhaust, carbon monoxide
was detected at 21 ppm, This concentration is higher than the National Ambient Air
Quality Standard of S ppm. The exhaust may be impacting the outdoor air near your
residence and could impact the indoor air if a route of entry is provided (e.g., open
window or door). The balcony for your residence is directly above the heater system
exhaust.
This indoor air monitoring and exhaust sampling are limited by the duration of the
sampling and the compounds analyzed. Concentrations could vary over time and other
compounds may have been present, but were not analyzed.
Please contact me with questions.

VAIL TOWN COUNCIL - MINUTES
TUESDAY, JANUARY 5, 1999
7:00 P.M.
The regular meeting of the Vail Town Council was held in the Town Council Chambers on
Tuesday, January 5, 1999. The meeting was called to order at approximately 7:00 P.M.
COUNCIL MEMBERS PRESENT: Rob Ford, Mayor
Ludwig Kurz, Mayor Pro-Tern
Bob Armour
Michael Arnett
Michael Jewett
Sybill Navas
COUNCIL MEMBERS ABSENT: Kevin Foley
STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Bob McLaurin, Town Manager
Tom Moorhead, Town Attorney
STAFF MEMBERS ABSENT: Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager
The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation. Joe Staufer, a longtime resident,
wished the Town Council a Happy New Year. He gave the Council a copy of an article from
Mountain Sports & Living magazine, which ranked Vail fourth out of the top ten best resort
towns in the country. Joe said the article described Vail as "charming", which he agrees with,
and doesn't want the Village overdeveloped. He urged Council to preserve Vail's charm and
wants the Town to review all redevelopment submittals of public accommodation districts
reviewed on a one-on-one basis so the Village is not overdeveloped. He wants Vail to keep its
charm, and does not want it to follow in the footsteps of Beaver Creek with a lot of "glitz" and no
soul.
The second item on the agenda was the consent agenda.
A. Approve the Minutes of the meetings of December 1 and 15, 1998.
Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve the meeting minutes of December 1
and 15, 1998, Council member Mike Arnett seconded the motion. A vote was taken, and was
unanimously passed, 6-0.
B. Resolution No. 1, Series 1999, a Resolution Designating a Public Place Within the Town
of Vail for the Posting of Notice for Public Meetings of the Vail Town Council, Planning
and Environmental Commission, Design Review Board, and Other Boards,
Commissions, and Authorities of the Town of Vail.
Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve Resolution No. 1, Series of 1999,
Council member Mike Arnett seconded the motion. A vote was taken, the motion passed, 6-0.
1 Vail Town Council Minutes January 5, 1999
4
C. Ordinance No. 23, Series of 1998, second reading of an Ordinance 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.
Council member Bob Armour made a motion to approve on second reading, Ordinance No. 23,
Series of 1998, Council member Mike Arnett seconded the motion. Council member Bob
Armour stated he was pleased the applicant added the Employee Housing Units (EHU's) to the
application as a condition of approval. A vote was taken, the motion passed, 6-0.
The third item on the agenda was a CARTS Update.
Jim Scherer, the Executive Director of CARTS gave an update. He explained that CARTS
stands for Colorado Alliance for Rapid Transit Solutions. He said that the organization is
working closely with the state-appointed Fixed Guideway Authority (SIFGA) to identify a high-
speed guideway system that would climb steep grades from Denver to Glenwood Springs.
SIFGA is to come up with a plan by the year 2000. They are trying to get a system that will be
comparable to the cost of adding two lanes to 1-70 (which is $20 million per mile). Jim also said
that graduate students from the Colorado School of Mines are studying this as a class project
and they are looking into finding an economically feasible and technically viable alternative for
the state to consider in the year 2000. The plans call for a three-mile test area from Frisco to
Copper Mountain in the year 2003 and will go to the voters for funding in the year 2008. A
fixed guideway system will have the capacity equivalent to ten lanes of pavement traffic. A
Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) study shows that adding two lanes of asphalt
would only fix the traffic problem to the year 2010. A fixed guideway system can be feasible'
and be competitive. He said the Town of Vail pledges $1,000 for CARTS in 1999 and would
like the Council to consider contributing more to this figure in the future. He gave a list of other
entities involved in CARTS and their contributions to CARTS.
Council member Mike Jewett asked Jim about the capacity of the individual units of the fixed
guideway system.
Jim stated the units would carry approximately 20-40 people per unit, and would be used in
pairs. CARTS is also trying to get ground transportation services like Vans to Vail, and
Colorado Mountain Express involved to maybe purchase these vehicles to expand their
services in this manner. It would cost more but it would move more people faster.
Mayor Rob Ford thanked Jim for his presentation.
The fourth, item on the agenda was the appointment of Vail Valley Marketing Board Members.
Council member Sybill Navas made a motion to appoint M. Ross Boyle and Barbara Black to
the Vail Valley Marketing Board for two year terms each. Council member Ludwig Kurz

seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the appointments were passed 6-0.
Lorelei Donaldson, Town Clerk, explained to the Council that there were three positions open
and only two applicants. The vacancy for the third position would be advertised again to try to
fill the third position.
Mayor Rob Ford invited the viewing public to apply for this position if they were interested in the
Vail Valley Marketing Board.
The fifth item on the agenda was Resolution No. 2, Series of 1999, a Resolution Consenting to
Assignment or Transfer of Control of Cable Television Franchise.
Tom Moorhead said TCI has been the operator of the Town of Vail Cable Franchise and is
currently operating under a renewal entered into in January 1995. He said that effective June
23, 1998, AT&T Corporation and Telecommunications, Inc. executed a merger agreement.
Under the terms of the agreement, AT&T will become the parent company of TCI. TCI will
continue to exist as a corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T. All stockholders of
TCI will exchange their shares of TCI stock for shares of AT&T stock. All cable television
franchises will continue to be held by the current franchisee. No cable television franchises will
be transferred as a result of the proposed transaction.
Council member Mike Arnett asked if this changes anything with the Town's agreement with
TCI.
Tom Moorhead said no. They don't see any changes in the foreseeable future. He said
additional discussions regarding TCI's system upgrade and compliance with the current
franchise agreement will be concluded within the next eight to twelve weeks.
Fred Lutz, General Manager of TCI, said Tom was thorough in covering the merger agreement.
No changes of operation locally will be seen until late 1999. TCI will go away and the new
company, AT&T Consumer Service Inc. will"replace TCI Cablevision as the Town of Vail's cable
provider.
Council member Ludwig made a motion to approve Resolution No. 2, Series of 1999, and
Council member Bob Armour seconded the motion. A vote was taken and was passed,
6-0.
Mayor Rob Ford asked Fred Lutz if cable modems are on the way as part of this package.
Fred said yes it is will be a part of the package.
Tom Moorhead stated the town staff sees this merger as a benefit.
Fred Lutz handed out a packet of services from TCI.
The sixth item on the agenda was the Town Manager's Report.
Bob McLaurin said there was nothing further to report from the afternoon work session.

VAIL TOWN COUNCIL - MINUTES
TUESDAY, JANUARY 19, 1999
7:00 P.M.
The regular meeting of the Vail Town Council was held in the Town Council Chambers on
Tuesday, January 19, 1999. The meeting was called to order at approximately 7:00 P.M.
COUNCIL MEMBERS PRESENT:. Rob Ford, Mayor
Ludwig Kurz, Mayor Pro-Tem
Bob Armour
Michael Arnett
Kevin Foley
Michael Jewett
Sybill Navas
STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Bob McLaurin, Town Manager
Tom Moorhead, Town Attorney
Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager
The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation. Germaine Harmon, a condominium
owner at the Vail Village Inn, stated she is concerned about the height and size of the proposed
Vail Plaza Inn project and said she didn't get prior notification of the redevelopment. As an
adjacent property owner, she feels the project is out of character with the rest of Vail.
On behalf of Elfi Weideman Devaney, owner of Tiffany Glass Kunst, John Devaney presented
the Town Council with a stained glass window with the 1999 World Alpine Ski Championship
logo on it.
The second item on the agenda was a presentation by Sarah Exton, a Delatite Shire, Australia
Exchange Student. Sarah Exton thanked the Town of Vail community for its hospitality during
her and fellow exchange student, Matt Brakels, two-month stay. She presented Mayor Rob
Ford with a letter of introduction and said she is looking forward to students from the Vail area
going to Australia as part of the exchange program.
Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager, introduced Charlyn and Dean Canada as the host
family for Sarah Exton.
The third item on the agenda was a presentation of the Aspen to Glenwood Rail Corridor by
John Bennett.
John Bennett, Mayor of Aspen, made a presentation to the Council on efforts to develop a light
rail system between Aspen and Glenwood Springs. He said he has been involved with
transportation issues in the Aspen area for 8 years. He gave a slide presentation on the history
and issues about traffic in the Roaring Fork Valley. The conversations on alternative
transportation issues began in 1993, and in 1996, the light rail system was unanimously
approved to be a viable alternative for the Roaring Fork Valley. Traffic congestion is the
number one problem in the Roaring Fork Valley. The second issue is explosive growth, in the
Aspen area as well as the rest of Colorado. One of the goals is to maintain the same number
1 Vail Town Council Minutes January 19, 1999
0
of vehicles on the streets and roads in the year 2015 as there were in 1994. He also expressed
that Bill Owens, Governor of Colorado, has said Highway 82 between Aspen and Glenwood
Springs is a good example of where a light rail system would be useful. The Roaring Fork
Valley is growing too fast and widening of the highway would not solve the problem. If the
Aspen to Glenwood Springs area relied on buses only, there would have to be a bus trip every
30 seconds by 2015. In 1994, a bus-way bonding election was defeated. Labor efficiency of
the rail system can move 150-300 people versus 30-60 people at a time on the bus system.
There are good examples of light rail systems in Europe, and there is a light rail system in
Portland, Oregon. There was a light rail exhibition near Carbondale that ran for 3 days that was
deemed a success. The light rail system is gaining positive support in the Roaring.Fork Valley
from Aspen to Glenwood Springs, however it is still controversial and still has opposition. Eight
government entities within the Roaring Fork Valley have been involved in the discussions. The
overall goals are to maintain the quality of life, and ease traffic congestion. John thanked the
Town Council for their time.
Council member Bob Armour asked John if they would need to remove vehicle traffic off Main
Street for the rail system to be efficient.
John responded saying the object is to reduce the impact of traffic, not totally eliminate it. The
goal is to hold traffic levels down to where it is now, in the future.
The fourth item on the agenda was an Overview of Economic and Snow Sports Trends by
Chris Cares.
Chris Cares and Nolan Rosa[[ of RRC & Associates, gave a presentation to the Town Council
on an overview of skier trends over 20 years. They used various graphs and charts to illustrate
the national ski trends and Vail's position in the trends. The survey shows the ski industry is flat
and competition with other leisure industries has increased. In 1979 there were 50 million skier.
visits a year and in 1998 there were 54 million skier visits. Vail continues to be a premier resort
among destination alpine resorts, however the gap has narrowed and the competition is
catching up. Throughout the United States, snowboarder participation, the age of skiers versus
snowboarders, and revenue by regions, ski ticket sales versus other revenue generating
avenues continue to affect the skier trends. Concerns from guests are high priced lodging,
accommodations not flexible enough with lengths of stay less than one week, high prices in all
areas for the quality of service being offered, access and transportation issues. Time is
critical in moving forward on getting Vail back on track and staying up in the top rank of the
skiing industry. Nolan stated that the seven day booking policy used by the lodges should be
reviewed. Getting people to come back to Vail once they leave is difficult because of the
competition in the resort industry and other choices available.
Mayor Rob Ford thanked Nolan and Chris for their presentation.
Germaine Harmon, a Vail resident, stated it wasn't bad to be compared with Disney. She said
Vail should look to Disney and see how they train their employees on guest services.
The fifth item on the agenda was a discussion and first reading of Ordinance #1, Series of
1999, an ordinance amending Ordinance #23, Series of 1998, to add "Transportation Business"
as a conditional use subject to the issuance of a conditional use permit in accordance with the
2 Vail Town Council Minutes January 19, 1999
provisions of the Zoning Regulations, and to permit the use of the tennis facility as an
accessory conference and convention center to the hotel, in Development Area A, Cascade
Village, Special Development District #4; and setting forth details in regard thereto.
George Ruther, Town Planner, stated Ordinance No. 1, Series of 1999, will allow transportation
businesses (shuttle service or car rental) as a conditional use to Special Development District
#4 for transportation uses and will also allow, as a conditional use, the tennis facility as an
temporary conference and convention center to the hotel. The conditional use will allow for
more control over the use of this area.
Mayor Rob Ford clarified the shuttle services or car rental use would not take away from the
required parking.
Council member Mike Arnett made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 1, Series of 1999 on
first reading, Council member Bob Armour seconded the motion. A vote was taken, and the
motion was passed unanimously, 7-0.
The sixth item on the agenda was the Town Manager's Report.
There was nothing further to add to the town manager's report from the work session.
As there was no further business, a motion was made by Council member Ludwig Kurz to
adjourn the meeting and Council member Kevin Foley seconded the motion. A vote was taken
and the motion passed unanimously, 7-0.

Re: 1998 Compensation
Dear Buck:
I shared your letter requesting a 4.5% adjustment to your 1998 compensation with all members
of the Vail Town Council. In fact, we have discussed this matter on several occasions.
Following these discussions the Council has authorized an increase to your 1998 salary of 4%.
This increase in retroactive to January 20, 1998, which is the date of your last salary
adjustment.
For 1999 the Council is looking very closely at personnel costs and therefore would like to
review your compensation package and work program in a more comprehensive manner early
in 1999. This will avoid any delays in future salary adjustments.
i
Please feel free to call me if you have questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,
;

Attached is Municipal Judge compensation data which I hope will be helpful.
All information is from the '98 CML survey based on data effective January 1, 1998. All actual
CML municipal judge data is attached as well.
Issues:
• There are few 20-hour judge positions in Colorado. Judge positions in the resort market are
typically 8-hours or less per week. Because of the low hours, hourly rates are higher and
benefit coverages are lower.
• Full time judges may present a more stable comparative base, both in compensation and
benefits.
Internal Impacts:
• Bob McLaurin = $39.00/hour
• Tom Moorhead = $36.67/hour
Increase Benchmarks:
• Denver/Boulder CPI =3
.3%
• TOV '98 increase = 4.0%
If I can be of any assistance, please stop by at any time.

Vail Town Council, Russell Forrest,
Rob although you had strong words that there is no more time for studies, it is time for action, it's funny I
didn't read about your agenda for action. I'm assuming it's more of the same, tolerate slave labor, demand
from those you show no respect to and treat like shit, or maybe you do have a new agenda and are thinking
about whipping the slave labor work force you have done nothing to abolish until they produce again. You're
right it's time for action Rob, but of course not a politically correct dimwit knows what to do because there
isn't one of you able to identify the problems here, but as you are proving at the 99 WASC proclaiming
environmental greatness, Vail is big on hot air.
First maybe your alledged director of community development, the environmentally ignorant Russell Forrest,
should not be out proving his environmental ignorance and proclaiming false environmental greatness at the
99 WASC, but maybe he should be in his office at least doing his best incompetent attempt at being a
community development director. But then again I guess it doesn't really matter where Russell is as he robs
tax payers of their hard earned money, because Rob the chances of Russ being able to solve Vail's problems
are about equal to Russ being able to put together an environmental plan, but maybe he should be doing his
best incompetent attempt at it. But I guess it's much more important that Russell, being of the lowest quality,
character, and integrity as the rest of the politically correct Vail leaders, that he be presenting propaganda
about a subject he personally, has refused to allow Vail to be, environmentally responsible. I am well aware
Russell was allowed to rob tax payers of their money for years while pretending to be a Sr. Environmental
Policy Planner, but since Russell couldn't come up with an environmental plan if his job depended on it, he
was promoted to his level of incompetence and is now a community development director, still robbing tax
payers of their hard earned dollars, but now instead of proving his incompetence again, he is out promoting
propaganda.
Rob I am telling you Vail does not have an affordable housing problem, Vail has an affordable wage
problem. Vail supports slave labor and there isn't a worker in this town that should be providing the ultimate
in guest service until someone starts showing up respect for providing the service. At this point in time every
Vail employer displays the lowest levels of respect for customer service to their employees with wages that
are so below the cost of living workers have to work 80 hours a week for significantly less benefits than
welfare reciepients, no retirement plan, no vacation or holiday pay, however you have no choice but to work
holidays for slave labor wages, and are forces to not live like immigrants, but like animals with 3-4 hours
sleep for months on end. There are people who have devoted their entire working lives to making Vail N.
America's # 1 ski resort, 20 years of service and they don't have a penny to their name, a chance in hell of
putting a roof over their head, with no financial retirement future, but you expect them to produce for you.
What's you or your dimwit Russell's plan, more of the same, or is Russell all for the whipping the slaves
aspect.
Rob, I am working on being the leader the politically correct in Vail believes no one will stand up and be.
Once again I will outdo Russell a million times over, and once again, Russell will be getting a check,
benefits and a retirement plan for being politically correct incompetent. It will be my pleasure to again
within a few years time have Russell removed from his position, as I believe I had much to do with his
removal from his incompetence and robbing tax payers of their money as impersentating a Sr. Environmental
Policy Planner, but that certainly hasn't stopped him or VA, TOV and VVF from falsely proclaiming
environmental greatness at the 99 WASC.
I am requesting copies of the 3 town council meetings I had to attend in the fall of 97 stating Vail cannot go
before the world at the 99 WASC and proclaim environmental greatness as the papers were reporting. The
tapes where you had nothing to say for yourselves, and would not insist Russell stand behind his
incompetence. I'd also like all propaganda you are distributing at the 99 WASC proclaiming environmental
greatness including the tape Hayden said he made for those, in a derogatory way, greenies.
You know how to get in touch with me, and I do want these informational pieces, and of course I suggest to
Mr. In Action Himself Rob, that as Director of Community Development Russell's time over the next few
weeks would be much better spent getting this community into action, implementing your plan, than it would
to have the not willing to back up what he won't do environmentally Russell out proclaiming Vail's false
environmental greatness, especially as Russell is a major reason Vail refuses to be enviromnentally
responsible and proactive.

Project Manager
TOV READY TO RESURRECT HOUSING PLANS FOR WEST VAIL "A-FRAME" SITE
(Vail)-The Town of Vail is resurrecting plans to add to its affordable housing inventory
with a teardown-rebuild project on a parcel known as the "A-frame" site on Arosa Drive
in West Vail. Although the project has been on the Town of Vail's work program since
1997, it had been back burnered due to the town's inability to find a willing development
partner.
But now, an opportunity exists to redevelop the property using the same development
team who'll be working on the town's 6-unit housing and park development at Arosa-
Garmisch. "While it's nearly impossible to achieve an economy of scale with a small site
like the A-frame, it is much more feasible if we combine it with the West Vail site," said
Andy Knudtsen, the town's housing consultant. "Our goal is to link the two sites together
with the same development team and progress on both sites at the same time."
The A-frame property was acquired by the town in 1996 as part of the Trappers Run
acquisition. It is zoned primary/secondary and contains a four-bedroom A-frame home
that has been used to house Town of Vail seasonal employees. Because the 20-year-
old home has fallen into disrepair through the years, town studies show it would be more
cost effective to tear the structure down and rebuild rather than renovate the existing
home, Knudtsen said.

~4M RECYCLED PAPER
Add 1/A-frame site
Last March, the Vail Town Council accepted a design-build proposal to partner with the
local chapter of Habitat for Humanity to redevelop the site. Habitat's proposal had
included construction of two units with the potential for the addition of a smaller
caretaker unit added to the site. However, the proposal was withdrawn by Habitat two
months later, as there were concerns within the organization about Habitat's ability to
successfully complete the partnership. Since then, Knudtsen says the town has been
looking for a willing partner. "We think the Arosa-Garmisch development team will be
able to easily include this site in the construction process and will be able to achieve a
better economy of scale, particularly for the A-frame site," Knudtsen said. The team will
include a developer, architect and general contractor.
Before presenting the project to the Vail Town Council for approval, Knudtsen says the
first step will be to meet with the adjacent property owners to review preliminary site
plans and architectural concepts. He says the Council has expressed interest in
building two or three units on the site; either a duplex, or a duplex with a caretaker unit.
All units will be deed-restricted. The addition of a caretaker unit would require a
conditional use approval from the town.
Following the neighborhood discussion, the schedule will include a review by the Town
Council in mid-February; reviews by the Planning and Environmental Commission, if
needed, in March; reviews by the Design Review Board in April; final consideration by
the Town Council in May; and ground breaking in June.
In addition to the town's A-frame project and the 6-unit for-sale Arosa-Garmisch
housing development, construction is currently underway on an 18-unit for-sale housing
development at Red Sandstone, a partnership between the town and the Eagle River
Water and Sanitation District.

Add 2/A-frame
Currently, there are 399 deed-restricted affordable housing units within the town's
boundaries; most are in private ownership.

Development Department at 479-2144.

VAIL TOWN COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS FOR JANUARY 26
Work Session Briefs
Council members present: Armour, Arnett, Foley, Ford, Jewett, Kurz, Navas
--Art In Public Places Master Plan Discussion
The Council heard a report from Denver consultants Andy Dufford and Simon Zalkind
who were hired to help draft a master plan for Vail's Art in Public Places (AIPP)
program. As proposed, the plan suggests some radical changes in AIPP's focus.
Rather than commission works of fine art, the firm suggests using art to give Vail its
own sense of place in the design of ordinary objects such as bus shelters, utility vents,
light posts, benches, information sites--even manhole covers. The presentation
included photographs illustrating similar examples from other communities, including
Denver, Boulder and Ft. Collins. Although there were questions about involvement of
the private sector as a funding partner, Councilmembers reacted favorably to the
presentation and directed AIPP Director Nancy Sweeney to continue moving forward on
specifics of the plan as well as a process that would integrate the program within the
town's operating procedures. For more information, contact Sweeney at 479-2344.
--Arosa/Garmisch Affordable Housing Development
The Council accepted a staff site planning recommendation for the proposed six-unit,
for-sale affordable housing development at Arosa-Garmisch in West Vail. The site plan
includes using the easternmost side of the parcel to construct a townhome four-plex
with a duplex structure on the end that would form an "L" shape. The remainder of the
site, about two-thirds, would be used as a neighborhood park and open space. With
Council's acceptance of the site plan, plus a favorable conceptual review by the Design
Review Board last week, the proposal now moves into the regular development review
process. This will include annexation, rezoning and replatting with the Planning and
Environmental Commission, and design review with the Design Review Board. - In the
meantime, the town will conduct a Request for Qualification (RFQ) process to retain a
development team that will be charged with development of the Arosa-Garmisch
housing as well as redevelopment of the "A-frame" site on Arosa Drive. Both sites are
owned by the Town of Vail. A discussion on bedroom counts and sales prices will be
brought before the Council at a later date. For a list of upcoming development review
meetings, contact Nina Timm at 479-2144.

RECYCLED PAPER
Town Council Highlights/126-99/Add1
--Affordable Housing Buy-Down Criteria
After reviewing a draft of proposed criteria for the town's "buy-down" housing program,
Councilmembers, expressing concerns about the amount of town subsidy that might be
necessary to ensure the program's success, gave the initial authorization to cautiously
move forward with the potential purchase of a small unit. As proposed, the town would
essentially purchase free market housing units within the town, based on established
criteria; then deed-restrict the properties (with the 3 percent annual appreciation cap);
then sell them to qualified applicants. Although concerned with the level of subsidy that
will be needed to implement the program, Councilmembers acknowledged the specific
amount would be unknown until the unit is resold by the town. (An example in the staff
memo to Council included the town purchasing a one-bedroom unit for $140,000 with a
$90,000 to $100,000 resale price.) The Council has budgeted $100,000 for the
purchase and resale of five units this year. During discussion, Councilman Michael
Arnett suggested adding "fixer-uppers" to a 7-point criteria list, while Councilmember
Sybill Navas suggested keeping the higher subsidized units within a Town of Vail
employee rental pool. Navas also wondered if the town should consider eliminating the
3 percent appreciation cap on the resales. In addition, Councilman Bob Armour
suggested considering a ground-lease situation similar to the Vail Commons
development. Once a candidate property has been identified within the town,
Councilmembers agreed to discuss the issues in more detail prior to authorizing the
program's first purchase. For more information, contact Nina Timm in the Community
Development Department at 479-2144.
PEC/DRB Review
During a review of the most recent meetings of the Planning and Environmental
Commission and the Design Review Board, Councilmembers inquired about PEC
approval of a conditional use permit for the Vail Interfaith Chapel (allows for basement
to be used as an emergency shelter during road closures) and DRB call-up approval of
a courtyard iron fence outside the Daily Grind.
--Vail Plaza Hotel
After hearing an overview of the redevelopment plans for the Vail Village Inn, which
calls for 326 hotel rooms, 15 fractional fee units, a 20,000 sq. ft. conference facility and
a 25,000 sq. ft. spa, Councilmembers expressed concerns about the size and height of
the building, as well as traffic circulation plans. While the proposal is formally
scheduled for first reading at the Council's Feb. 16 evening meeting, Mayor Rob Ford
suggested yesterday the applicant may wish to withdraw the proposal and spend
additional time in Council work sessions to address the concerns. During discussion,
Councilman Michael Arnett said he disagreed with the applicant's claim that the
proposal is in keeping with the Vail Village Master Plan, noting that it doesn't preserve
the unique architectural scale of the Village, nor does it enhance the walking
experience through Vail Village. Arnett also expressed concerns about the building's
height, site coverage and traffic plan. Councilman Bob Armour noted the challenges of
a redevelopment project in Vail. He said he was encouraged to see that no
(more)
Town Council Highlights/1-26-99/Add2
condominiums have been incorporated into the plan and that circulation concerns were
beginning to be addressed. Councilmember Sybill Navas agreed with statements made
by Arnett. She said the site needs redevelopment, but "not at any price." In addition,
Navas suggested using Vail Road as a central access road (rather than South
Frontage Rd.) and expressed disappointment that proposed loading and delivery
operations were being staged off the Frontage Rd. Councilman Michael Jewett also
expressed concerns about traffic and bulk and mass issues. Jewett noted the plan
should reflect a new bypass leg at the Main Vail roundabout to 1-70 east, which is
scheduled for construction this spring following federal approval. While Councilman
Ludwig Kurz said he agrees the site needs redevelopment, he objected to the degree to
which the town is being asked. Councilman Kevin Foley expressed concerns that
underlying zoning wouldn't allow for projects of such magnitude. For a copy of the
redevelopment proposal, contact George Ruther in the Community Development
Department at 479-2145.
--Information Update
At the request of the Art in Public Places Board, Councilmembers received a written
report on a public art project at Arizona State University, while Assistant Town Manager
Pam Brandmeyer noted that efforts are underway to tweak the public art project at
Seibert Circle to enhance its four-season utility. Ideas include a small water feature
and additional vegetation. Councilman Bob Armour expressed frustration that some of
the project's concrete sections have cracked. (During the project's design, Armour had
unsuccessfully argued in support of pavers or similar street treatments, as opposed to
pressed concrete.
--Council Reports
Kevin Foley reported on a meeting of ECO's Trails Committee in which interest was
expressed in seeking a trail connection through the Berry Creek Fifth Filing property.
Also, Foley said ECO has agreed to reduce transit fares to $1 on all ECO routes during
the Vail 99 Championships. In addition, Foley reported on a recent meeting of the Vail
Recreation District Board. He said the VRD was appreciative of the compromises
reached on the summer parking program for Ford Park.
Ludwig Kurz reported that a Florida-based organization has expressed interest in
continuing the Vail and Beaver Creek arts festivals, following the dissolution of the Vail
Valley Arts Council. Also, Kurz, who represents the Council on the board of directors of
the Ski Museum, said the museum is working to update its image. Possibilities include
adding snowboarding to its name.
Rob Ford reported on a recent meeting of the Vail Community Task Force in which
members have been discussing a common vision for Vail. Ford also wished Tara
Flanagan well. The longtime Vail Trail reporter has taken a new editing job in
California.

Sybill Navas reported on a Chamber of Commerce board retreat. She said the
Chamber intends to focus on establishing a permanent funding source for regional
marketing, joining forces with the Vail Valley Tourism and Convention Bureau to
eliminate duplication, and guest services training that would include an employee
needs assessment survey. Also, in her role as a Council representative to the
Northwest Colorado Council of Governments Water Quality/Quantity board, Navas said
a discussion on use of magnesium chloride as a de-icer would take place at a quarterly
meeting on Feb. 3 at the Eagle County Courthouse.
Bob Armour reported on the most recent meeting of the Vail 99 Organizing Committee.
He said the event will be outstanding, including the opening ceremonies. He reminded
everyone that tickets are needed for the opening ceremonies (they're getting hard to
find) and to get there early. Because of security measures, entry gates will close
promptly at 6:30 P.M. with the ceremonies beginning at 7:00 P.M. Also, Armour
reported on a recent meeting of the Colorado Association of Ski Towns at Winter Park.
He said CAST is interested in hiring someone to analyze the studies that have been
conducted, to date, on the magnesium chloride issue. He also shared a state funded
CAST-Colorado Ski Country USA promotion on use of alternate transportation called
"After you arrive, let us drive."
After attending the Channel 5 mixer last week, Michael Arnett complimented the station
for its contributions to the community. Kevin Foley and Ludwig Kurz also were in
attendance.
--Other
Bob Armour said he and Kevin Foley enjoyed the free concert in Lionshead Sunday.
Armour encouraged everyone to take advantage of the Vail 99 events and activities
during the next two weeks.
Sybill Navas and Kevin Foley expressed concerns about the visual appearance of a
temporary media structure on Pepi's deck. The structure was approved in accordance
with an over-arching ordinance ok'd by Council in relation to the 1999 World Alpine
Championships special event.
On behalf of a constituent, Michael Jewett inquired about the town's readiness for Y2-
K. Although problems are expected to be minimal, Town Manager Bob McLaurin said a
cross functional team was being organized to address the issue. Jewett also asked
about the appropriateness of a site visit invitation issued by a property owner regarding
impacts to the property caused by the proposed Vail Plaza Hotel redevelopment. Town
Attorney Tom Moorhead advised that in Council's quasi-judicial role, such site visits are
inappropriate on an individual basis because of the applicant's right to due process.
Ludwig Kurz announced that public parking within Beaver Creek has been eliminated
during the World Championship events. Spectators and guests will be directed to the
(more)

parking lots along Highway 6, as well as the Stolport site in Avon. Bus service will be
provided to Beaver Creek and to the downhill finish. Downhill spectators should get
there early, he said.
Kevin Foley said he's continuing to work with the Liquor Board on issues related to
TIPS training. Eventually, he says the Liquor Board may ask Council to consider an
ordinance that would require servers of alcohol to receive the training.
Carol Hymers, a Donovan Park neighborhood resident, thanked the town for updating
the neighborhood on recent Vail 99-related activities at the park, as well as providing
local "reader board" information on Channel 39 through TCI Cablevision.
Diana Donovan asked that the town's December sales tax estimates be forwarded to
the Vail Community Task Force to clarify an erroneous estimate made at the meeting.

MEMORANDUM
TO: VAIL TOWN COUNCIL
FROM: BRENT WILSON, PLANNER 1
DATE: JANUARY 27, 1999
RE: FOR YOUR INFORMATION / TATTOO PARLORS
Upon the request of a potential west Vail merchant, Planning Division staff and the Town
Attorney recently reviewed the Town code to determine the applicability of our commercial
zoning regulations to tattoo parlors. Currently, all of our commercial zone districts allow
personal services (including beauty salons and barbershops) as a permitted or conditional use.
After much discussion with planning departments in other jurisdictions and among our own staff,
the Planning Division has determined that tattoo parlors, for zoning purposes,.are quite similar to
the personal services permitted in our Commercial Core I, II & III, Commercial Service Center
and Arterial Business Districts. As a "personal service," they are therefore a permitted or
conditional use in our commercial zone districts. Our findings are based on the following criteria:
1. Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of the Town.
Staff believes the relationship and impacts of this proposed use are consistent with
other "personal services" (beauty salons, for example) currently permitted in the
Town's commercial zone districts.
2. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities, and other public
facilities and public facilities needs.
Staff believes the effects of this use on the above-referenced criteria would be no
different than the currently permitted "personal services."
3. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the streets and parking areas.
Staff believes the effects of this use on the above-referenced criteria would be no
different than the currently permitted "personal services."
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk of the proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
Staff believes the effects of this use on the above-referenced criteria would be no
different than the currently permitted "personal services."
A survey of adjacent municipalities (Avon, Breckenridge, Silverthome) reveals that tattoo parlors
are handled as permitted personal service uses in all cases. If you have any questions, please call
Brent Wilson at 479-2128.

Dear Council Members:
Re: Juvenile Acco ik Incentive Block C-Mnt '(JAl$G) to the Vail City Council in the
amount of $8,160
The U. S. Congress enacted public Law 105.119 in November 1997, through which Colorado
was allocated $3.5 million. The Division of Criminal Justice, Colorado Department of public
Safety was designated as the state agency to administer these funds. The Lave defines the
formula to be used to determine the 10ca1 p29s through block grants to eligible units of local
government. The Vail City Counca is eligible to receive a JAI114 allocation of $8,160. A
minimum cash match of $907 is required. Funds will be available upon approval of submitted
documents, no later than May 1, 1999, and are good through December 31, 3000_
The purpose of these funds is to reduce juvenile delinquency, improve the juvenile justice
system, and increase accountability far juvenile offenders. Twelve program areas are avacTable-

THE CENSORED IN VAIL NEWS
VA spokesperson, "What we're really about is balance in any story. And this clearly wasn't balanced."
Further, "It's one thing to give information in isolation. You've got to put it in perspective." At the same time
Andy Daly critized articles that are "misleading, poorly researched and an unbalanced presentation of an
issue... Simultaneously the Vail Daily claims "To withhold news is to play god."
While printing the above quotes, for years Vails distributors of news have withheld information they have
been presented and know to be true, and instead they present the in isolation press releases they know aren't
balanced. There are many areas where both these statements are misleading, but this edition will discuss that
the Vail Daily printed the above VA quotes after refusing for some time to present VA's, the TOV and VVF
true environmental position. The important not presented information is what won't be done environmentally,
because what won't be done is much more important than the very low level actions that are presented as
great, and is the balance of the in isolation presentation the press delievers to you.
The Vail Daily's/Daily Trail's Position On Their Censorship
On Oct. 29 I asked Vail Daily editor Matt Fults for his position on his censorship, but Matt does not answer
such questions. I talked to VD publisher Bob Brown. He greeted me nice but when I said Bob you printed
VA's above quotes while you for some time refused to print the balance of VA's in isolation press releases.
Since you printed it and advertise yourself as someone who would not withhold news as you are withholding
news, I'm looking for your position to accurately represent you in the Censored in Vail News. Suddenly there
was no connection. I called back and had the receptionist confirm Bob had hung up on me, and yes Bob did
intentionally hang up on me, therefore that is his official position on his censorship. Bob continues to present
in isolation material to his audience while implying his papers would not withhold news, or Bob silently has
let you know he thinks of himself as god. Daily Trail editor David Williams said he is not for censorship, yet
he and his publisher have also for years refused to present the balance of VA, TOV and VVF in isolation
press releases.
CATEGORY 3
I have the only vaild to 1999 Category 3 environmental argument, yet the only time the press has mentioned
it is when I paid to have it printed. Category 3 is based on deforestation and the increased use of fossil fuel
generated energy. It is everything the environmental experts recommend against and it is a grand slam home
run of greenhouse gas emissions. Since the political powers here have ensured you remain environmentally
illiterate, you do not understand the implications of this, and neither do our leaders who have refused to
educate themselves so they can make an intelligent environmental decision. Through my self study
knowledge I guarantee this proposal is environmentally irresponsible and I have asked if our leaders do not
believe me, to have experts verify my concerns. This was absolutely rejected as an option, however that
didn't stop Andy Daly from proclaiming that'through careful research and planning we (VA) have mitigated
and minimized the environmental impacts of the proposal', yet to the best of my knowledge, Andy has
refused to have my concerns researched never mind mitigated. Apparently Andy doesn't have to have any
value to his all to easy to get published, to the best of my understanding, misleading statements. To the best
of my self study knowledge, I believe to minimize and mitigate VA would be planting thousands of acres of
trees, or VA would be increasing the volume of and/or making colder the oceans, or VA knows another way
(s) and is acting on them, but I don't believe that is the case, and VA/Andy refuses to respond.
VAIL 99
VA, the Vail Valley Foundation (VVF) and the Town of Vail (TOV) are proceeding with plans to represent
Vail as environmentally proactive and responsible and for environmental education at the WASC_ These
organizations have participated with some very low level environmental actions and nature education
programs, but these programs are nothing to proclaim yourself great for doing. More importantly, what these
organizations won't do, unknown to you, is much more important than what they will do. What VA, the TOV
and VVF and the press have intentionally failed to mention was our leaders refused to go to Rio and win the
99 WASC with an environmental marketing proposal. The following are highlights of refused actions, what
Chris Ryman of VA, Russ Forrest and Peg Osterfoss of TOV and John Dankins of VVF laughed in my face
about, the balance of the in isolation press releases you have been subject to.
o The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is located in Golden, CO, 2 hours east of Vail. For
years VA and TOV has refused to begin an association with the NREL which is supported by your tax
dollars. Chris Ryman then Sr. VP of Mountain Operations for VA gave me a ski pass in part to begin this
association, but since Chris offered me the deal, he has refused to talk to me and to live up to the deal he
offered me. I took Chris to court where Terri Diem instructed me Chris lived up to the agreement because he
gave me the pass, refusing to identify the problem is I can't live up to my end of the deal. Terri ended her
decision instructing me "this is what big companies do". The NREL told me they would love to work with
Vail, as they work with many big companies, in many areas including responsible building technologies. This
was 5 years ago, and much could have been accomplished in that time, but it hasn't because of the refusal of
our leaders. They refuse to be involved with responsible building technologies and Chris Ryman instructed
me it would be impossible to get our lifts operating from solar energy, but since Chris refuses to educate
himself he doesn't know every 15 minutes the sun delivers to the earth the amount of energy produced world
wide yearly. Ford advertises they run plants off renewable energy, but VA refuses to invest time into this
responsible energy source so we have no results, but that won't stop VA, TOV and VVF from proclaiming
false envirnmental greatness.
o Provide environmental education so you can understand the consequences of your daily actions, and gain
an appreciation as opposed to your current expectation for many irresponsible actions and products you do
and use everyday. VA, the TOV and VVF has refused for 5 years now to produce and distribute to every
school in the U.S. an environmental educational film teaching students how and why to be responsible to the
environment. This film could have had Vail all over the beginning and ending. I asked them and Mr. Gerald
Ford to get Al Gore to introduce the film and then retain as a host a Vail buddy, someone who is perceived
as an all around good guy, a role model and most importantly someone who solves problems, but they refuse.
This film would have a follow up education that students could ask for, a syndicated column designed for the
comics page because everyone who opens the paper opens to the comics page. A topic a week, and at the end
of the week you have an understanding of something you hear about, but have no clue about. A column
syndications complimented for years, before determining there is no market for it. And of course Vail refuses
to encourage that market, as VA the TOV and VVF refuse to encourage the Vail Daily to print it. I have paid
the Vail Daily to print. it yet they refuse with no reason. This column was the second part of why Chris
Ryman of VA gave me a complimentary ski pass, yet again, Chris refused to live up to his deal, and as the
Vail Daily advertises 'Always remember to care for the earth well. It was not left to you by your parents, it
was loaned to you by your children', the Vail Daily won't educate you on how to take care of Earth.
o For five years VA has refused to convert their disposable restaurant operations to responsible reusable ones.
Disposable products are what the experts state is strangling the planet. This is something readers would
understand the importance of if you were environmentally literate, but your environmentally ignorant leaders
ensure you remain environmentally illiterate. I figure VA won't do this because their environmental
ignorance is bliss, or they just don't care, or Leon and friends have stock in disposable products.
This is highlights of what VA the TOV and VVF refuse to do environmentally, but since they are doing some
very low level actions, actions that were the lowest levels of my agenda and nothing to proclaim greatness
for, and since they can ensure this information is censored, they will inaccurately proclaim environmental
greatness to the world at the 99 WASC, displaying disrespect for the environment, and the lowest levels of
personal and professional quality, integrity, and character, but I've come to expect nothing less from top VA,
TOV and VVF.
