Pam Brandmeyer : Bob McLaurin Based on Council discussion from the work session November 9th, Steve Thompson Council should consider the following questions: Frank Johnson a. WHO IS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS? For at the least the first transitional year operating this district, does Council wish to remain as the Board of Directors, in order to ensure the community Council oversight of programs and spending? b. WHAT INITIAL ACTIONS SHOULD COUNCIL TAKE? , . 1) Establish Y2000 budget. Because this is the first year of collections, base the budget on a conservative estimate of collections $1.5 million, as well as address the fourth quarter 2000 lodging tax collected in March of 2001. Staff believes there will be a two month lag in payments to the Vail Local . , Marketing District from the state on the quarterly lodging tax collections, e.g.: January-March 2000 Received June 1, 2000 April-June 2000 Received September 1, 2000 July-September 2000 Received December 1, 2000 October-December 2000 Received March 1, 2001 The Vail Valley Marketing Board had previously submitted to Council two marketing plans for the year 2000, one at the $1 M level, and a second at the $2M level.' Council could choose to support the $1M level its first year. By the close of 2000, Council should be in a better position to gauge actual revenue collections, thus affecting the scope of the next year's 2001 marketing plan budget. BUDGET BY YEAR (CASH BASIS) Assumes $1.5M from Lodging Tax and $318,000 Business License Fee Year 1 Year 2 2000 2001 Business License Fee Payable January/February 2000/2001 318,000 318,000 Lodging Tax Revenues: 1 " Quarter_6/1/2000 600,000 2"d Quarter 9/1/2000 300,000 3rd Quarter 12/1/2000 300.000 . $1,200,000 4'' Quarter 3/1/2001 300,000 1 " Quarter 6/1 /2001 600,000 2nd Quarter 9/1/2001 300,000 3`d Quarter 12/1/2001 300.000 TOTAL REVENUE: $1,518,000 $1,818,000 Expenditures 2000 Marketing Program $1,468,500 2001 Marketing Program 0 1,768,500 State Collection Fee 49.500 49.500 $1,518,000 $1,818,000 6 a ~ An interim loan from the Town of Vail may be required every year, based on how the Lodging Tax is remitted. Additionally, the state will collect 3.3% fee for collecting the todging tax. $1.5 M x 3.3% _$49,500 2) Establish Advisory Board that will report directly to the Vail Town Council. If Councif has chosen to remain as the Board of Directors for the first year, and further, chooses to appoint an advisory board, the Council could: Appoint current TOV representatives on the past Vail Valley Marketing Board for a one year term, e.g.: Past appointments by the Town Council were - 1. Ross Boyle 2. Meggen Bernstein* 3. Sandra Sage 4. Beth Slifer *Meggen Bernstein is now employed by Vail Associates, so if Council were to include one representative from VA in order to coordinate the shouldeNwinter marketing programs, consideration would be given to either Chris Jarnot or Meggen Bernstein. This would then allow Council to either leave the Advisory Board at 6 or advertise based on past marketing background criteria for a seventh Advisory Board member. 5. Kenny Friedman, LionsHead Merchants Association Representative 6. Steve Rosenthal, Vail Village Merchants Association Representative 7. Vail Associates representative 3) Review and approve Y2000 Marketing Plan prior to December 31, 1999. Review the proposed $1 M Y2000 marketing plan as previously presented in August by the past Vail Valley Marketing Board: Upon recommendation from the Advisory Board, approve or modify the marketing plan. 4) Should existing contractors be retained for the coming year 2000 to assure a smooth transition? Those contractors are: a. The Barnhart Agency has bought the firm originally owned by Dave Reece and has retained Reece's original employees. b. Peeples Ink ° c. WTCB d. Fulfillment center 7. A request for approval of the use of Town right-of-way along Vail Valley Drive Brent Wilson for short-term parking/"drop-off' by Ski Club Vail affiliates. (10 mins.) ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approval or denial of this request. BACKGROUND RATIONALE: On November 8, 1999, the Town's Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) approved Ski Club Vail's request for a variance to allow for parking on Town right-of-way (and within required setbacks). The approval would allow Ski Club Vail affiliates to utilize the road shoulder along Vail Valley Drive as a short- term parking/loading area. The PEC's approval of this request carried a 7 I I number of conditions regarding the management of parking within the right-of-way. Since the request involves the use of public property, an approval by the Vail Town Council is required as well. An identical request was approved by both the PEC and the Vail Town Council last year. A staff memo and copies of relevant planning documents has been forwarded to the Town Council. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Community Development Department staff recommends that the Town Council approve this request with the conditions outlined in the staff memo. 8. Information Update. (10 mins.) 9.

Town of Vail Lorelei Donaldson, Town Clerk Published in THE VAIL TRAIL, February 19, and February 26, 1999. MEMORANDUM TO: Vaii Town Council FROM: Communiry Development Department DATE: November 16, 1999 SUBJECT: A request for the use of a portion of Town of Vail right-of-way for short-term parking/drop-off . adjacent to Ski Club Vail, located at 598 Vail Valley Drive / Part of Tract B, Vail Village 7th Filing. Applicant: Ski Club Vail Planner: Brent Wilson 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST On November 8, 1999, the Town's Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) approved Ski Club Vail's request for a variance to allow for parking on Town right-of-way (and within required setbacks). The approval would allow Ski Club Vail affiliates to utilize the road shoulder along Vail Valley Drive as a short-term parking/loading area. The PEC's approval of this request carried a number of conditions regarding the management of parking within the right-of-way. Since the request involves the use of public property, an approval by the Vail Town Council is required as well. II. BACKGROUND The following is a brief history of the application and related issues: On November of 1998, the Vail Town Council and the Planning and Environmental Commission approved Ski Club Vail's previous request for a variance to allow for temporary parking/loading in the Town's right-of-way with the following conditions: - s That the approval be limited to a period of one year between the dates of November 6th and May 10th and the hours of 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. * That the terms outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding dated January 6th, 1998, be fulfilled in their entirety. ~ That an agreement be established between the Town of Vail and Ski Club Vail for the management (maintenance, signage, enforcement) of parking on this property. * That Ski Club Vail submit a long-term parking/development plan for review no later than February 28, 1999. No future variance requests will be considered without the submittal of a long-term plan. * That all signage required for maintenance and enforcement of the parking area be paid for by the applicant. 1 s That an ultimate solution for the use of the " turn around area" and road shoulder be arranged in the agreement between the Town of Vail and Ski Club Vail. _ * That the Vail Town Council approve the use of the right-of-way for this purpose. * If, at any point during this approval period, the Town of Vail deems the parking/loading management situation inadequate, outstanding issues will be resolved by the "assessment committee"-a committee derived of representatives from the Town'of Vail, Ski Club Vail and. Vail Associates. The Town of Vail Police Department reports Ski Club Vail's managed parking solution worked very well last ski season. There were no incidents reported during last year's period of variance approval. Ski Club Vail is currently working with Vail Resorts and Town staff to formalize a development plan which addresses all of the concerns vocalized during last year's discussions. The PEC reviewed Ski Club Vail's redevelopment plans on November 8, 1999 and the proposal was well- received with no major issues identified. Staff anticipates the rezoning and development plan approval process for the club's redevelopment wifl be completed by early January. In the meantime, however, Ski Club Vail has requested an extension of their variance to allow for an identical managed parking situation this ski season. The followinq is a brief historv of the development of Ski Club Vail: On August 26, 1976, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved a conditional use permit for the construction and operation of Ski Club Vail. At that time, the PEC did not require any parking and stated "...we feel additional parking in this location is not appropriate." However, Ski Club served approximately 75 users in 1976; today the facility serves over 300. On March 24, 1986, the PEC granted a variance for the use of the front setback area/right-of- way as a loading and unloading zone for a one-year period. The approval was conditioned on Ski Club Vail's willingness to sign and enforce this "drop-off" zone. At that time, Ski Club Vail leased additional parking spaces from the Ramshorn Condominium Association. This lease ~ agreement is no longer in effect. After the one-year PEC approval expired, additional approvals were not requested. In January of 1998, the Town of Vail, Vail Associates and Ski Club Vail drafted a memorandum of understanding (MOU) regarding parking management for the Golden Peak Ski Base area facilities. Under this MOU, the Town Manager agreed to discuss Ski Club Vail's parking situation with the Town Council. At their October 13, 1998 meeting, the Vail Town Council directed Ski Club Vail personnel to bring an application to correct the parking and loading problems on site before the PEC for approval. After the PEC granted last year's variance request, the Vail Town Council voted to approve the applicant's use of Town right-of-way for temporary loading and unloading. 2 111. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Community Development Department staff recommend approval of the applicant's request for the use of Town of Vail right-of-way to ailow for short-term parking and drop-off, located at 598 Vail Valley Drive / Part of Tract B, Vail Viliage 7th Filing. This recommendation of approval includes the following conditions: 1. That the approval be limited to a period of no more than 2 years between the dates of November 6, 1999 and May 10, 2001 and the hours of 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Ski Club Vail volunteers will monitor and "police" the drop-off/parking activity to ensure compliance with conditions of approval.' 2. If, at any point during this approval period, the Town of Vail recognizes significant safety or traffic circulation issues, this approval will be revoked. 3. The "horseshoe" drive aisle will remain clear for usage as a turnaround area. The following pages include conceptual plans for Ski Club Vail's redevelopment proposal. These plans are included for informational purposes only as the Town Council will review the redevelopment proposal in its entirety in December, 1999. 3 o;~D / ~ I ~'.1 ~ ~ \ ~ ~aa vc, : PR~~~.~ . 9, ~ ~.~o•,e~ l.

Parents of Ski Club Vail athletes have a work deposit that they have an option to work off through volunteering their time. In this proposal Ski Club intends to man the weekends and race days with three attendants; two in front of the club and one in front of Pinos del Norte/Northwoods parking garage. During club functions we will.have one attendant in front of the club. During business hours ( 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, Tuesday thru Sunday) Ski Club has a staff of three full time people who will be monitoring the loading zone. Ski Club Vail will install "Loading Zone Only" signs in the proposed area. The signs will have an agreed upon time limit.

PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSION ,[1 November 8, 1999 ~ Min ~ utes MEMBERS PRESENT: , MEMBERS ABSENT: STAFF PRESENT: John Schofield Diane Goiden Russ Forrest Galen Aasland Dominic Mauriello Brian Doyon Brent Wilson Tom Weber . Judy Rodriguez Chas Bernhardt Doug Cahill- . Public Hearina 2:00 p.m. John Schofield called the meeting to order at 2:00 p.m. and he said to let the record reflect that the PEC would like to thank Vail Resorts for the tour of Category III today. 1. A request for an extension of a previously-granted variance and a request for a worksession to discuss a redevelopment proposal involving a rezoning, conditional use permit revision and development plan approval for Ski Club Vail, located at 598 Vail Valley Drive / Part of Tract B, Vail Village 7`h Filing. Applicant: Ski Club Vail, represented by Snowdon & Hopkins Architects Planner: Brent Wilson Brent Wilson gave an overview of the worksession portion of the request. John Schofield asked how much of the Academy would be run out of Ski Club Vail, since they would now have a larger facility. Pam Hopkins said they were not pursuing that issue at this time. Brent Wilson said it was apparent that the designated use was that of a race facility and added that it was zoned Ski Base Recreation. John Schofield stated that it would have to be part of adjacent Tract F to meet the 40-acre requirement. Doug Cahill said he would like to have the future uses identified. Brent Wilson said any changes to the development plan would have to come before the PEC. John Schofield said he would like to see the legal issues addressed that involved encroaching onto an adjacent property. Brent Wilson explained the 31' height and said it was based on the most restrictive grading. He also said he would clarify the setback numbers. He then went over staff issues that he said the PEC should address and stated that a more detailed grading plan would be provided as they went further into the process. Jeff Babb with Vail Resorts, stated the applicant had been working with the Children's Ski School throughout this process. Galen Aasland asked how much it would cost to relocate the bus stop. Planning and Environmental Commission 1 Minutes IVovember 8, 1999 ~ . Greg Hall said more than $30,000. John Schofield said, after speaking with Mike Rose, to explore the possibility of combining the bus stop with the Golden Peak bus stop. Doug Cahill said combining the bus stops would require a need for hostessing to educate the public. Rocky Christopher said that although combining bus stops would resolve the congestion, Ski Club Vail never intended to pay for that. He said, regarding snow storage, that Ski Club Vail would love to heat the area if they had the money. - Brent Wilson explained the time-frame and that it could be done by mid-January or February, which would give the applicant time to get the demo permit in by April. Phil Hoversten stated that the contractor who built Two Elk completed it in the same time-frame. Brian Doyon said the bike path to the east was the only axis to the Vail Trail eastbound. Brent Wilson explained the Master Plan, with regard to the bike path, and suggested going closer to Golden Peak if we were not going to pursue the same alignment. John Schofield said, in reality, people don't use the bike path from Mill Creek to Vail Valley Drive. Chas Bernhardt said the congestion time of the ski operations alternated with Ski Club Vail and so he didn't see any conflict. John Schofield stated that the sidewalk portion would need to go to a larger size. Brent Wilson stated the Master Plan identified that the north side of Vail Valley Drive in front of Manor Vail was not appropriate for a bike path. Brian Doyon thought that if you turn the bike path towards the Magic Carpet, it will run over some steep grades intermingting bikes and pedestrians. John Schofield said the Town has to maintain access to the Vail Trail and we would need to explore the options. Tom Weber said he was concerned about the height of the wall. John Schofield stated the main water line to the building goes right through the island. Rocky Christopher said they had received positive response from the neighborhood. Galen Aasland said any other applicant would be required to provide a solution for snow storage. Brent Wilson said he ran these issues by the DRB and they said the applicant was headed in the right direc#ion. He then gave an overview of the variance portion of the request. He said the Police Department had no incidents last year and that the hardship was that staff could not identify any other drop-off point. John Schofield asked if the applicant or public had anything to add. There were no comments from the applicant or public. Planning and Environmental Commission 2 Minutes November 8, 1999 . Doug Cahill stressed keeping the horseshoe open for a turn-around space. He asked if the public could use this area, since it was in a public right-of-way or are they getting shoed away by ~ the votunteers. Rocky Christopher said there was nothing there except Ski Club and so the public didn't use the area. Chas Bernhardt asked for a timeline of what was planned in the future. .Tom Weber said he was in agreement with his fellow Commissioners. Brian Doyon asked about the liability of self-policing and asked if there would be the same hours of operation as last year. - Galen Aasland said he thought it was great. John Schofield stated that the hardship was recognized for the record and that this had been confirmed by prior PEC Commissions. He said there were no other like zoned properties in the vicinity. He said it was critical to keep the horseshoe open and that Condition No. 2 was not appropriate. Galen Aasland agreed that the wording used in Condition No. 2 was not correct. Brian Doyon made a motion for approval, in accordance with the staff memo, including the amended wording for Condition No. 2 to read: That the PEC strongly advises that no other requests of this nature will be considered by the Town. Doug Cahill seconded the motion. The motion passed by a vote of 6-0. Jim Lamont,said he had no specific concerns for the short term. John Schofield advised Jim about the bike path issue. Jim Lamont said he would like to circulate the bike path issue among the EVHA. He said he had no problems if the path was reconfigured. He said he would like to see a way to hook back into Meadow Drive safely. John Schofield stated the options and said they would need a final approval letter from Vail Resorts. 2. A request for a"staff approved" minor amendment to the Golden Peak Development Plan, to allow for the addition of a new Magic Carpet lift in the ski yard, the relocation of the mechanical shed and the addition of a stream crossing for summer access to the base of Chair 12, located at 458 Vail Valley Drive/Golden Peak Parcel, Tracts B&F, Vail Village 5th and 7'h Filing. Applicant: Vail Resorts, Inc. Planner: Dominic Mauriello STAFF APPROVED Ptanning and Environmental Commission 3 Minutes November 8, 1999 s 3. A request for a minor subdivision, to allow for the establishment of a new parcel and the vacation of platted easements, located on a Portion of Lot 1, Sunburst Filing #3 (Golf Terrace). Applicant: Fallridge Condominium Association Planner: Brent Wilson TABLED UNTIL NOVEMBER 22, 1999 4. A request for a final review of a major amendment, to allow for the proposed redevelopment of the Vail Village Inn, Phase IV, within Special Development District No. • 6, and a conditional use permit, to allow for the operation of a fractional fee club in the Public Accommodation Zone District, located at 100 East Meadow Drive/Lots M, N, & O, Block 5-D, Vail Village First Filing. Applicant: Daymer Corporation, represented by Jay Peterson Planner: George Ruther TABLED UNTIL DECEMBER 13, 1999 Brian Doyon made a motion to table items 3& 4 to their respective dates. Chas Bernhardt seconded the motion. The motion passed by a vote of 6-0. 5. A request for a conditional use permit, to allow for the construction of a Type II employee housing unit, located at 3847 Lupine Drive / Lot 7, Block 1, Bighorn Subdivision First Addition. Applicant: Randy Nichols, represented by the Mulhern Group Planner: Allison Ochs WITHDRAWN 6. Information Update . John Schofield asked about the outcome of the appeal to Council, regarding the PEC's decision. Russ Forrest advised it was upheld unanimously. John Schofield suggested having an orientation with the new Council and that the PEC would like to look at the Forest Service Plan Brent Wilson said reviewing the Forest Service Plan would require a light PEC agenda, but he would provide an overview for the PEC. 7. Approval of October 25, 1999 minutes. Tom Weber and Brian Doyon had corrections. Chas Bernhard made a motion for approval to the amended minutes. Brian Doyon seconded the motion. Planning and Environmental Commission 4 Minutes November 8, 1999 The motion passed by a vote of 6-0. Doug Cahiil made a motion to adjourn. Galen Aasland seconded the motion.

PURPOSE On September 21St at the evening Council meeting on community facilities the Town Council approved the following: 1) Entering into a contract with EDAW to begin the design process for the hub site uses (2"d Sheet of lce, learning center, family center, and event center with a performing arts function). 2) Issuing a request for proposals to complete a market analysis of the uses on the hub site. 3) Issuing a request for proposals for site planning on the recommended uses for the Lower Bench of Donovan Park (Recreation Fields & Park, Youth Center, Day care, Multi-use Pavilion, Pool, Gymnastics). 4) Budgeting resources in 1999 and 2000 to move forward with the market analysis and design of community facilities. 5) The recommended community facility uses outline in the attached memo from September 21 S` The purpose of tonighYs discussion is to update the Town Council on the progress to date on community facilities and to request permission to enter into a contract with Economic Research Associates (ERA) to do the market analysis for the hub site uses. Council approval is required on contracts over $50,000. In addition, staff may have a recommendation on a consultant for ponovan Park. The fotlowing is a brief summary of each request. 2. MARKET ANALYSIS FOR THE HUB SITE A request for proposals was issued for economic professionals to submit their qualifications and their proposals to complete the following tasks: identify the demand for these facilities, identify design considerations to make the facilities more marketable, determine the economic impact to the community, and identify operational requirements for the facilities. This is a critical next step to move forward on the Lionshead community facility uses. This information will provide critical market information on what uses could . be supported in the Town of Vail and what their economic impact will be in the community. Several consultants inquired about the RFP but concluded that they did not have all the needed in-house resources available to do ihe work or could not do it in the ' necessary time frame. One consultant, Economic Research Associates, did respond , and can do the work as requested in the scope of service within the budget that was • created for this project. Staff has checked references on this firm and has concluded that this firm is one of the top consultants in the Country to do this work. ERA has in fact done market analysis on pertorming arts facilities in Vail when they were previously proposed in 1991. In addition, ERA has just completed a market analysis on recreational facilities for the Town of Eagle. Attached is a copy of their proposai. Staff highly recommends engaging this consultant for the market analysis. This will be a critical first step in moving forward on the community facilities on the hub site. 3. DONOVAN PARK COMMUNITY FACILITIES . On Monday November 15`h, VRD and TOV representatives will be interviewing three design teams that responded to a Request for Proposals to complete the design work for community uses proposed for the lower bench of Donovan Park. The three Design teams are • Odell Architects, Design Workshop, Sasaki, and ARC • Zehren, EDAW, HGA, and Shaw Construction • Fritzlen, Pierce, Smith, Winston Assoc, Carvel, and PCL Construction Depending on the interviews and staff's ability to check references, a recommendation may be ready for Council's review on Tuesday, November 16th. However additional time may be required to develop a recommendation. 4. HUB SITE DESIGN TEAM The previous Council did direct staff to enter into a contract with EDAW, HGA, and Zehren to assist with the design process for the Lionshead hub site. Attached is a description of this teams qualifications. If there is no objection from Council, the Town and the VRD will enter into a contract with this design team. 5. PAYING FOR COMMUNITY FACILITIES DESIGN On page 7, in the attached memo, a budget is provided which has been approved for the 1999 and 2000 budget. The VRD will be paying a portion of design expenses on the uses that relate to VRD programs. It appears the market analysis came in right at the estimated cost in this budget of $100,000. The design process for ponovan Park was estimated at $250,000 (RETT fund). Staff will have a more accurate estimate on costs after the interviews on Monday. The design costs for the Lionshead hub site will be between $145,000 and $170,000.

PURPOSE The purpose of September 21St evening Council meeting on community facilities is to recommend to the Town Council: . 1) What Communiry facility uses and sites should be considered further, and 2) What design team should be used for the hub site to continue the design process. - In developing this recommendation, the Community Facilities Team that includes business leaders, active residents in the Vail tomorrow process, Vail Resorts Executives, performing arts representatives, recreational enthusiasts, lodge managers, event planners, considered the input of many people that participated in the community facilities process over the summer. A major theme, related to the hub site uses in Lionshead, focuses on the need to create a community cross roads and an environment for learning, education, and the arts that compliments our Mountain environment. 2. PROJECT OBJECTIVES The objectives of this project as identified by the Town Council include: 1) The facilities plan will buitd upon the community facility ideas and lands that have been identified through the Vail Tomorrow, Common Ground, Lionshead master plan, and other community processes. 2) The facilities programming will complement both recreational (e.g., skiing and mountain sports) and cultural (e.g., art, pertorming 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. Potential residents and guests would be drawn to Vail because of them. These should be unique facilities. 4) The facilities will serve both Vail Valley residents and guests. 5) Public-private partnerships will be pursued to finance the developmeht of the facilities. . 3. BACKGROUND The Town Council and VRD initiated a public process in February of 1999 to implement the Vail Tomorrow community facility needs. A list of uses was approved by both the Town Council and VRD that were used in the design charette, which occurred in June of 1999. Three design teams presented ideas on how to site these uses in the Town of Vail. One of the objectives of this project was to identify ways to obtain private funding for facilities. For this reason Integrated Sports International (ISI) was obtained to help assist with the acquisition of corporate funding. In addition a group of local residents have met with Town staff to discuss creating a grass roots effort to obtain local funding support fior a pertorming arts use. At this point, staff has met with the Lodge at Lionshead homeowners, Lionshead Merchants, BRAVO, Vail Valley Foundation, VVTCB, individual Vail Village Merchants, and other interested groups to solicit their input on the process. 4. RECOMENDED USES AND SITES . At this point in the process staff and the community facility team are making the following recommendations on next steps that are described in the table below.

RECOMMENDED DESIGN TEAM In March of 1999 a Request for Qualification was issued for design teams to participate in a design charette for the Town of Vail & VRD Community Facilities Charette. One of the major purposes of the Charette was to choose the top design team to move forward with the design process. Three teams were selected for the June Charette after an intensive interview process. Those teams included: Blue Team EDAW . Zehren & Associates, Hammel, Green & Abrahamson Red Team Otis Architecture Sasaki Associates Design Workshop Green Team IQ Magic Orne & Associates OZ Architecture The Community Facilities Team recommendation is to move forward on the hub site design with the Blue Team. This team is recommended for the following reasons: • Each idea generated by each team in the charette was ranked on a scale of - 1-100 based on the design criteria identified in the instructions for the charette. The Blue Team had the highest ranked ideas among the three teams. • The Blue Team has had excellent experience in designing pertorming arts facilities, conference facilities, learning institutions, and other public amenities. • The Blue Team has the right level of creativity and ability to effectively design and build facilities to be successful in the Vail Valley. Jack Zehren is very familiar with Vail design guidelines while HGA and EDAW bring significant experience in public process, acoustics, event center and pertorming arts facility planning. . Attached is a description of the qualifications of all three teams. 6. SUMMARY OF RECOMENDATION Resources have been proposed as part of the Town Managers proposed 2000 budget to continue the design process. Some of this money that is being proposed, would need to be used in 1999 if Council woutd like to move forward with this process in 1999. Town staff and the Community Facilities Team is requesting that Council support the recommended next steps in the Community Facilities process which include: Hub Site (Dobson, Library, RV Parking Lot, South Side of Parking Structure) 6 • Complete a market analysis of the recommended uses, (2"d Sheet of ice, learning center, family center, and event center with:a performing;arts: function) on the hub site. ' • Engage the blue team (EDAW, HGA, Zehren) to complete the design process for the hub site. Satellite Uses (Recreation Fields, Youth Center, Day care, Multi-use Pavilion, Pool, Gymnastics) • Complete a site plan of Donovan Park to include a ParWRecreation Center, recreation fields and play equipment. . . . . ~ If Council would like to move forward with a housing development on Mt. Bell, the community facilities team would recommend locating ABC & Learning Tree within the Park Center at Donovan Park, which would provide additional housing opportunities on Mt. Bell. • Remodel the Bright Horizons space to include community room programs, teaching space for classes, Senior Services program space for NWCCOG, and Arts and Crafts Room. • Staff would recommend that a request for proposals (RFP) be issued for . design teams,to develop with public input the Donovan Park design. , Note: No private lands are recommended to be used as part of this project. 7. BUDGET FOR PROJECT This project has been financial partnership between the Vail Recreation District and the Town of Vail. In moving forward a similar funding partnership is proposed. The following is a break down of proposed costs.

This difference is due to recent information from the VRD on cost sharing for the next phase. The cost sharing is based on the percentage of the uses that have a direct tie to the Vail Recreation District. The VRD contribution to this project is subject to VRD Board approval. Other actions within the . . . ~ 7 RETT budget that are recommended include creating an additional soccer field at Redsandstone for approximately $500,000. In addition, planning may progress so that implementation or partial implementation of the park center and park a're possible in the year 2000. In that event, it is recommended that a supplemental budget for RETT be proposed in 2000 when the specific costs are better known. In addition, the 2000 budget, as recommended by the Town manager, currently has a line item for $250,000 for remodeling the Bright Horizons Space. 8. WHY MOVE FORWARD ON THESE RECOMMENDATIONS Economic Viabilitv • To regain Vail's position as the premier resort, Vail must provide additional amenities for guests that are increasingly looking for a variety of activities in a resort. • In the 1992 market analysis of an event facility, the consultant concluded that the facility would generate 62,000 additional room nights per year, $5.2 million/year in room sales, $3.62 million/year in food and beverage sales, $1.45 million/year in retail sales. • In a recent study of service employees under 30 a critical issue to these employees was activities that did not involve "drinking." Service employees indicated a strong need to develop the facilities mentioned above. Attracting and keeping service employees is critical to Vail's economy. • Focusing the library and the event facility on learning and education compliments the Vail Community. People have visited Vail and other resort communities to rejuvenate ihemselves mentally and physically. Learning and education are intertwined with the theme of recreating in the Mountains. Communitv • Vail is a resort and a community. Through Vail Tomorrow, the Vail Town. Council committed to working towards the implementation of the facilities identified in the Vail Tomorrow process. • Vail does have over 218 school-aged children in the Town of Vail. Vail has a significantly higher proportion of young people living in Vail between the ages of 18-30 than any other Town in the County. Recreational amenities are critical for our children and the service employees. • Both the proposed facilities at the hub site and at the satellite sites create gathering points for the community. It has been said that when the post office moved its location from the South Frontage Road, the Vail community cross roads was lost. The proposed uses will create a community cross roads for ' arts, learning, and recreation. • In November of 1998, a group of entertainment executives were invited to Vail to critically examine the community and the resort. One of their conclusions is that the creation of community facilities will be a critical asset to both guests and residents and physically shows the critical link between our community and the resort. 8 Attachment 2 Proposal from ERA Economics Research Associates Proposal to Prepare a MARKET ANALYSIS OF A PERFORMING ARTS FACILITY, EVENT FACILITY, FAMILY CENTER, 2ND ICE RfNK FOR TOWN OF VAIL, COLORADO PREPARED FOR TOWN OF VAIL, COLORADO PREPARED BY ECONOMICS RESEARCH ASSOCIATES NOVEMBER 2, 1999 ERA PROPOSAL NO. 37706 10990 Wilshire Boulevard Suite 1500 Los Angeles, CA 90024 ERA is affiliated wich oriv•rs Jonas 370.477.9585 FAX 310.478.1950 www.econres.com Los Angeles San Francisco San Diego Chicago Washington DC London ~ ~ - Economics Research Assoriates , November 2, 1999 Mr. Russell Forrest Director of Community Development Town of Vail - 75 Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 RE: ERA Proposal No. 37706 Dear Mr. Forrest: Economics Research Associates (ERA) is pleased to submit this proposal to prepare a market analysis of a performing arts facility, event facility, family entertainment center, and second ice rink for the Town of Vail.

The Town's vision is for a world-class collection of cultural and recreational uses that will serve regional residents, attract visitors, and lengthen the stay of visitors. The specific uses proposed include a performing arts facility, an event center, a commercial family entertainment center, and a second ice rink. The Town hopes that the critical mass of these facilities in the same location, tied together with quality design, will provide a service to residents and guests, lead to economic efficiencies, and create a destination that will attract visitors and benefit the local economy. The proposed project is a result of several community planning efforts, such as Vail Tomorrow, Common Ground, Lionshead master plan, and others, and, therefore, has community support. The Town has already selected a design team to prepare plans for the development. However, the Vail Town Council desires a market analysis to determine market demand for each facility, recommend actions to improve their marketability and operating efficiencies, project operating costs, recommend strategies for public and private financing, and determine the project's economic and fiscal impact to the community. .

The fee may be amended with a modification to the scope. The fee is all- inclusive, including overhead. The total fee to analyze all of the facilities is less than what the fee would be for each facility analyzed separately, due to the economies of research, travel, meetings -and management. Research economies are primazily associated with demographic and tourism trend ana}ysis, orientation, and presentations. The ice-rink feasibility cost is less than normal because of the research ERA has already conducted in the region. Despite these economies, the different uses do require a significant amount of unrelated research, such as the survey and interviews of potential users, evaluation of comparable facilities, and separate pro-forma analyses. ~ it . ! z_ - f 3Sl./~' ~ ~ : . • .-r e s ~.-~~~i • r r i . ~ . _ u~tu h .•~1 ~ ~ t '.~.~?'y ~ ¦ 00 ~i - f . - ~ ~ ~ . . .;~a _ . ~ I Economic Policy and Planning Services I Based on a clear analysis of a community's economic base and competitive position, ERA helps cities, states, and regions create strong and diverse local ~ economies, vibrant commercial districts, and successful public-private partnerships for economic development.

McLaurin, Town Manager/~__ DATE: November 12, 1999 SUBJECT: Town Manager's Report Meeting with EPA As you are aware, we met with officials from EPA on November 10"' to discuss the issues surrounding timber removal for the Category III area. The purpose of this meeting was for us to gain a better understanding of the issues from the perspective of USEPA and the Forest Service. Although I believe the meeting to be generally productive, there were no definitive outcomes. We will continue to work with USEPA, the Forest Service and Vail Resorts to attempt to address this issue. ArosalGarmisch Project Update We are in the final stages of signing the contract documents with the Stephens Group to construct the Arosa/Garmisch housing project and park. The project will commence in the next few weeks. This fall, it is our intention to initiate the grading and earth moving, shut the job down during the winter months and resume construction next April. We have also demolished the Arosa A-frame in preparation for the two units to be constructed on this site. As part of the construction there is a great deal of excess top soil which must be removed from the site. It is our intention to stock pile this top soil on the lower bench of Donovan Park. The soil will be used for the construction of the park facilities which are anticipated to be constructed on Donovan Park in the year 2001. (See agenda item no. 4, evening meeting). Lunch with Sam Mamet On Friday, November 19"', Sam Mamet, the Assistant Director of the Colorado Municipal League (CML), will be in town.

Thomas Moorhead DATE: November 11, 1999 SUBJECT: Meeting with EPA on November 10, 1999 Attendants: Bill Woods, U.S. Forest Service Diane Sipe, Enforcement Attorney Carol Rushin, Assistant Regional Administrator Steve Ireland, Enforcement Officer EPA Eliana ? TOV: Bob McLaurin Tom Moorhead Russell Forrest The meeting convened at 9:00 a.m. at the Forest Service offices in Silverthorne. . Carol explained the position of the EPA and what occurred leading up to the issuing of their report. After the violation was discovered, the EPA did an assessment. The result of that assessment was that it was an unfortunate accident and the violation has been viewed in that bent. This process with Category III is very public, every letter is scrutinized. The order and penalty will be issued very publicly. The penalty has not been determined. Concerning the wetland and with respect to the violation, the wetland assessment is evaluated the same as if a permit had been applied for. Is there an alternative available other than compromising a wetland? They have answered that answer in the affirmative; yes, there are practical alternatives to the violation of the wetland which was compromised to use Lime Creek to pull the timber off the mountain. RECYCLEDPAPER w They recognized that it was necessary to stabilize Lime Creek Road before the snowfall and. therefore they needed to get the order in place. Bill Woods pointed out that the stabilization is complete. Now it is necessary to establish a planning process for the restoration of the wetland which must be complete by August, 2000. The EPA is striving for a consistent approach, not punitive. There is no way to keep the road open without utilizing additional fill in the wetland area. The criteria remains the same for the evaluation even though it is an "after the fact" pernut process. Truck traffic through Vail is not viewed by the EPA as a reason to compromise a wetland. Steve pointed out that his evaluation included the fact that the road will be in place for two to three years and this is a ground water driven wetland. Bill Wood indicated that they have looked for possible road alignment alternatives and have not found one that does not impact wetlands. They have discounted an alternative of putting in a bridge due to the cost. Historically, in ski area development, the timber would have been bulldozed and burned in place. At this time there is no intention to revisit the Category III decision. The agencies are working with the Town of Vail to arrive at a plan to evacuate the timber from Category III. It is not viewed as responsible to not utilize the three million dollar board feet of timber that will be produced from this expansion. There is approximately one million board feet on the ground at this time. Bill Wood pointed out that there will be no public hearings or the acceptance of letters in regard to the Forest Service arriving at this decision. There will be no appeal opportunities (including TOV) but they recognize that litigation is always a possibility. Bob McLaurin pointed out that when faced with a similar situation concerning the logging at Piney Ranch, the Town of Vail closed its roads to the truck traffic.

Cole Re: Suggestions 1. It seems to have been a rule of thumb in the past that during the Christmas hofidays, week one (Christmas Week from Saturday to Saturday) had about 50% occupancy while week two (New Years Week from Saturday tio Saturday) was mare than sold aut. We all lcnow that many people consider Vail to be overpriced and not a good value particularly in rental condominium accommodations. I am suggesting that we offer the Christmas Week at SO% off across the board in an aftempt to generate 100°/a occupancy and adverCise this 50% offdeal as Uai1's Chrisfinas present to its customer.s Tf this were successful the rental occupancy do{(ars would not increase buti we would start the season on an outstanding positive note with great public relations and a full tiown. The additianal tourist business would give the merchants a great start on the winter season and would generate additional sales tax dollars for the Tawn. If successful, this could be a terrific annual event. It could also be offered at other slow times. I recognixe that a certain number of people want to be home on Christmas day. However, this deal might atCract a lat of additional first week business and give Vail a huge public relations success which we can certainly use. T am not sure that the Town Council is the correct place ta introduce this idea. However, I am sure that you folks are fnterested in this subject and that if you think it is worthy of discussion yau wi11 introduce it to the other concerned players. 2. T voted for the marketing fund and the lodging tax. However, if the lodging quality and/or pricing is not improved, we have compounded our product and image probfem by piling vn a tax on top of an already poor lodging value. The bulk of this problem lies with the condominium rental managers and their individual condominium owners. The more enlightened managers through their Boards of Directors have institufied a well established grading system which penalixes owners who maintain substandard rental prbperty. It is NOV-13-1999 SRT 02:16 PM FAX N0, P. 02 ~ imporrant that this program be instituted at every propertyr within the Town of Vail, particularly those that use the rental services of the Vail Valley 7ourisfi and Convention Bureau. Perhaps, any property that does not comply with a minimum standard should not be offered by the WTCB or the rental management, in addition, many of these properties need to reduce their current price levels. 3. z recentSy attended a forum on the political process that was put on by the White River Institute at The Antlers. Many of you attended that discussion. 'Chere seemed to be a common theme to the comments that we need to ga back to "square one" and discuss solutions to various problems. As an active member of Tomorrow Vail I submit to you that this was a very long , detailed and vafuable process which was contributed to by a great number of Eagfe County citizens - many of whom did not previousiy . participate in the Vail political / Town Council process. This process generated a lot of good will, enthusiasm and some very good ideas. Without implementation of some of these good ideas, many of these valuable, concerned citizens will be lost to the political process in the future. Tomorrow Vail was a good idea and it worked very well until a few people from the Town staff, the Town Council and the participants very clearly manipuiated the process to focus solely on employee housing and "railraaded" the process to achieve this end, You already know that this actian was not well received and has resulted in several law suits against the Town. T would suggest that rather than going baclc to "square one" we revisit Tomorrow Vail at the point where the train fell off the tracks and take advantage of the outstanding efForts and ideas that were produced in this process.

VARYANG'E REPORT BQb s-tatsd. this varianca report is almost identica] ta last month's with some minar adjustments. The biggest chamge was in Golf, they had a gooci monch (September) and revenue is lagging onty in payments from the Fcnmdation. Dobson made some strides in bringing their negative variance in line. They should have sponsasslup and advertising monies turned in and be up ta budget by next month. Chris thaught the accounk for vehic,le rnaintenanct seemed to be aver budget a lsrge amount and wanted to hear from Jim Myers on the reasons behind that, He reported the front-end loader's transmission plus clutch needed repairing/replacing whieh in itself made up the unexpected expense. Bob told the Directvrs Leslie Steveas, now ]ohnsou, did a great job with getting the tennis revenue in a positive position. The $oard approved a change w the pass amount last yeaz, and she did a lot more protnotion than had been done in the prevaws yeaus. Overall, sparts participation in some prograrns might be due to the develapment of the down-valley buy-in, however, from year to year participation varies aud is hdrd to predict. Sports will still meet the bottom line due ta sponsorships. 1 , NOV-10-1999 02'09 P.05 i CAPrrALEXPINS$ FOR 2000 Piet noted he askcd each department for a wish list for the ne,xt thc~e years.

Milligan Manager, Rams-Horn Condominiums 9r REF: Advisory and Marketing Boazds The following is in reference to the appointment of an Advisory Board and possibly at a later date the appointment of a Board of Directors for the Marketing District. It is my understanding that the Council may decide to serve as the Board of Directors in the interim. In any case, I understand that you may be discussing these items during todays' work session. I have some thoughts I would like to share with you. There are two important criteria in my opinion that should be followed in selection of both boards. The first criteria being that the' members should reside in Vail. A significant reason that the tax issue passed was because residents realized the urgency of focusing marketing efforts on Vail, that being East to West Vail. Because of this, the Boards should be fully represented only by Vail residents. ~ Secondly, the local business group that stepped up not only to support the marketing district and the tax but also the group who will be passing the tax on and coliecting the tax from their customers is the lodging community. Therefore, I would like to see strong representation, of Vail lodge owners or lodge operators on the boards coupled with other Vail business owners. If the lodging community does well, hopefully we can make an assumption that all East Vail, Vail, and West Vail businesses willJbenefit too. Please consider these criteria in appointing an Advisory Board. Also, although you m~y,.not appoint a Board of Directors for the District until a later date, I encourage you to appty the same reasoning in appointments. . If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact m__,e.
