VAIL TOWN COUNCIL
1. Presentation of the Vail Center Concept Paper. (1 hr.)
Russell Forrest
John Horan-Kates ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Review the concept
paper for the Vail Center and provide input on that concept.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The White River Institute was
engaged to help refine the concept of a learning center and
refine the overall concept for the Vail Center. A concept paper
has been prepared that provides a vision for the center and a
description of how life long learning can provide a unifying vision
for the recreational, meeting, cultural, and community uses
contemplated in the center. Staff would first like to obtain
Council input on the concept and the general square footage of
the uses. We anticipate that we would further refine the paper
after receiving council input on December 12th. Then based on
that input staff would like to review and develop a budget for the
next phase of design with Council input. The goal of this
discussion regarding the concept paper is to develop the final
instructions for the design team.
2. 1-70 Noise Study Report. (45 mins.)
Greg Hall
Russell Forrest ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Listen to the
presentation, review the results, ask questions, and discuss
future steps.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The 1998 Citizen Survey
identified the issue of the 1-70 noise. Early this year the
Town of Vail undertook a noise study that identified and
quantified the noise situation along 1-70. The results of the
study include the establishment of a noise model specific for
Vail. A noise contour map of the Town will show the existing
conditions. This model can be used to predict noise levels
for any property in Vail. Future noise readings can be
forecast using variables such as traffic volume, travel speed,
and percentage of trucks in the traffic volume. Additionally
noise mediation can be modeled to test the effectiveness of
various noise mediation devices.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Listen, discuss, and
determine how to proceed with this issue.
3. Right of Way Alternatives to Replace In-Town Shuttle (MK
Greg Hall Centennial Engineering Analysis) (45 mins.)
Mike Rose
Todd Scholl ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Listen to the
presentation and review the results, ask questions and
discuss future steps.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: An update to the 1993 Vail
Master Transportation Study recommended a replacement
of the In Town Shuttle with an Advanced Technology
Solution. Current issues with the in-town shuttle are: The
labor requirements; limited capacity with the current system;
impacts of noise and smell; pedestrian traffic; and providing
real-time wait information at each stop. The shuttle does not
operate on a set schedule but varies frequently. A draft
report identifying objectives, problems, possible solutions,
and initial solution screening was handed out at the
November 28 Council meeting.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Listen, discuss, and outline
next steps.
4. Overview of Uniform Building and Fire Codes. (1 hr.)

FROM.' John Horan-Kates
DATE: December 8, 2000
SUBJECT: CONCEPT PAPER - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY.
¦¦rrrrrrrrrrrrr¦rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr~
Here is the Executive Summary to the text together with a Summary Space Chart.
This information represents where we are today on the overall concept refinement
process. As many of you know, the complete text of the Concept Paper is largely
complete, however, as part of carefully managing the public dissemination process, we're
only making the summaries available this week. As the concept starts to become part of
the public record, together with finalizing the financial projections, the whole document
will be made available. At Tuesday's work session, several members of the Strategy
Group will make a verbal presentation that expands on what is included here.
While the space allocations are preliminary, they do represent a growing consensus
among the people most involved in the planning to date. The high and lower ranges are
recommendations for your decisions.
As we move this important project forward, I would like to recommend that the Council
schedule one or two specific review sessions with the key planners. These sessions
would allow for an interactive dialogue on the pros and cons with those most actively
involved in getting the concept to where it is today.
For my part, this has been a very challenging, but rewarding process. I remain convinced
that we're moving in a positive direction and that we can successfully sell The Vail
Center concept.
Thanks for allowing me, and the other people assembled by the White River Institute, to
be involved.

THE VAIL CENTER
A Community Crossroads
Where Learning, Recreation & Culture Meet
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this document is to convey our recommended concept for
The Vail Center. Because of the multi-faceted, complex public nature of
this project, it's important to look at our approach as a point of departure for
an ongoing community dialogue process that can build consensus around
these ideas.
BACKGROUND & KEY ASSUMPTIONS
As a community, we're in mid-life. Even though we've enjoyed much
success and remain one of the world's leading mountain resort communities,
we've reached a plateau. As a result, we now need to foster a robust
renaissance within the community and the economy.
Reflecting on how a renaissance might unfold while looking beyond the
surface of our success, we can understand the reasons people have come to
these mountains over the years. Certainly recreation, particularly skiing and
golf, but also the sheer beauty of the place. But at a deeper level, isn't it the
inspiration and that sense of rejuvenation with family and loved ones that
keeps us here ? Building on this notion is the essence of The Vail Center.
AUDIENCES & BENEFITS
A basic tenet is to design The Vail Center for ourselves first, and that if it
works for locals, guests will find it valuable as well. So, what we're
building is a gathering place that brings together new learning, recreational,
cultural and community facilities. And over the years, the one common
benefit that both locals and guests will take away from The Vail Center is
some experience, some interaction that will enrich their
lives.
VISION & GOALS
The vision outlined here attempts to respond to the question; "Where do we
want to be as a community in the year 2025 T' Do we want to build our
reputation and brand value or choose the same facilities and ideas that
everyone else has ? One answer lies in seeking to elevate our community
beyond simply being different from our competition to trying to set a new
standard and reclaiming a leadership position as a mountain resort
community. To do this, our concept suggests building a "learning economy"
that compliments our remarkable recreational economy.
At the end of this process, our primary goal is to secure a positive vote of
public confidence at the polls in November 2001.
CONCEPT DESCRYr i iON
The Vail Center is a gathering place designed to enhance Vail's stature as a
world-class mountain resort community by hosting a new level of activities
and events. It brings culture and community together. In an unofficial
sense, it's our campus quadrangle. It's about fun, about connecting with
people and about growing. The "glue" that attempts to integrate all of the
spaces and programs is learning. Perhaps with this direction, we can
envision a second economic focus emerging over time.
More than any other facility, The Vail Center is modeled after Banff's
"centers" approach. These are not physical buildings, but rather ideas or
focal points of interest that access all of the spaces on the campus.
In our case, we would start with...
Center fonMountain SteNNardship
Center for Health & Wellness
Center for Family 'Recreation
Center for Leadership -
Center for Conferences & Forums
These centers represent some of the reasons we think people should have for
coming to Vail. But the Center for Conferences & Forum is the component
that attracts corporate and association groups to come for their
reasons... primarily their meetings. And meetings will be the financial
engine of our campus.
Perhaps more than words can describe, this graphic portrays how it is all
interconnected.

STRATEGIC At r.KoACH
Beyond the learning theme, our strategic approach is to look to recreation, as
well as to meetings and their economic impact, to earn votes, and then to
education and culture to attract donors. And because we cannot pass a
public bond issue large enough for everything, we therefore need and desire
components that private donors will support. To drive this, we need
programming that conveys the potential and the passion of this direction.
To accomplish all of this, communications will be key. The complexity of
The Vail Center will require clear, simple and relevant messages tailored to
each of the various audiences. And from a governance point-of-view, it will
require us to create an independent coalition of individuals and organizations
that partner together to get it built. Operationally, we'll strive for an
integrated 'structure versus a series of fiefdoms.
NEXT STEPS
The timetable between now and November 2001 will fill-up quickly with
further planning and design. To help in this evolving process, we're
recommending an on-going dialogue with a core leadership group and
community members to reach a true consensus. By striving for a new level
of conversation, perhaps we can use the process itself to help build
community.
We've been studying this for years. Now it's time to act.
In the final analysis, if we create something really special, the money will be
there. Because money follows passion ! !

with yesterday's answers "

FROM: Greg Hall, Director of Public Works/Transportation
DATE: December 8, 2000, 2000
SUBJECT: I-70 Noise Study
Attached is a draft report from our consultant, Washington Infrastructure with regards to
The I-70 Noise Study. An error is in the report with regards to the projected 2020 traffic
volume and this will be corrected prior to Tuesdays meeting. In order to give you time
and generate questions on the Noise modeling in general I did want to include this in your
packet. The noise contour map will also be presented. Our consultant will be at the
December 12 Council meeting to discuss this report and next steps in the study. If you
should have any questions, prior to the meeting please don't hesitate to call me.
RECYCLEDPAPER
VIII. Noise
A noise study was conducted to identify noise impacts created by the Interstate Highway 70 (I-70) in
the Town of Vail. The study included the following tasks:
¦ Analyzing existing noise levels
¦ Determining noise impacts
¦ Determining future noise levels based on projected future traffic volumes
¦ Performing sensitivity analysis to differences in speed, variations of receiver locations, and
increases in truck traffic
The noise impacts were analyzed in accordance with the Colorado Department of Transportation's
(CDOT) noise policy (CDOT Noise Analysis and Abatement Guidelines, February 1, 1995). Traffic.
noise level predictions were made for two conditions: existing 2000 and year 2020. Site conditions,
including horizontal and vertical layout as well as topographical and traffic information, were used as
input to the STAMINA 2.0 model. General results of the traffic noise modeling effort are reported
below.
The results of the noise study indicate that few receivers will experience traffic noise levels in excess
of CDOT's noise abatement criteria under both the existing 2000 and year 2020 traffic levels. A
description of common noise terminology, a summary of CDOT's noise policy, a description of the
noise modeling process and the results of the sensitivity analysis are discussed below.
A. Noise Terminology
Noise is measured on a logarithmic scale, which is often the source of much confusion. What humans
hear are pressure fluctuations in the air that are created when something vibrates, such as an engine or
the cone of a loudspeaker. The range of pressure fluctuations the human ear can detect is extremely
large (20 to 20,000,000 Pascals, the metric unit of pressure). This range is unwieldy to discuss, so the
decibel scale is used to compress the numbers to a more manageable form. On this scale the range of
human hearing is approximately 0 dB (threshold of hearing) to 140 dB (threshold of pain). Some
typical noise levels are shown in Table VIII-1. Note that these levels are in dB(A), versus dB. The
"A" denotes that the noise levels have been adjusted according to the A-weighting network. The A-
weighting network adjusts noise levels to correspond to the fact that the human ear is more sensitive to
high frequencies than to low frequencies. A-weighted decibels are most often discussed in reference to
outdoor noise situations and are used exclusively in this analysis.
Outdoor noise levels are almost constantly fluctuating, particularly near a highway. The unit called the
equivalent average sound level (Ley) is used to quantify the fluctuating noise level into a single
number.
The Ley has the same sound energy as the time-varying noise level over a stated time period
(essentially the average noise level). The time period used in highway noise analysis is one hour. All
TOWN OF PAIL

noise levels discussed in this report are A-weighted, hourly Leqs representing the loudest hour of traffic

B. CDOT's Noise Policy
For projects involving new construction, CDOT has adopted the Federal Highway Administration's
(FHWA) guidelines for noise mitigation. These guidelines set a standard to determine when federal
funds can be used for noise mitigation related to highway construction on a new location or the
physical alteration of an existing highway. While this noise analysis does not involve new
construction, the standards used by FHWA and CDOT are used as the criteria to determine noise
impacts.
The FHWA policy on noise mitigation states that noise mitigation must be considered for any receptor
(e.g. a residence) or group of receptors (e.g. a neighborhood) where predicted traffic noise levels, using
traffic volumes and roadway conditions projected 20 years into the future, approach or exceed the
noise abatement criteria (NAC). The NAC establish the criteria to determine noise impacts on
receivers. Noise abatement is only considered for highway construction on a new location or the
physical alteration of an existing highway. Relevant NAC are shown in Table VIII-2. Traffic noise is
considered to "approach" a criterion at a level 1 dB less than the criterion (e.g. 66 dB(A) for Category
B).

C 72 (Exterior) Developed lands, properties, or activities not included
in Categories A or B above.
* Hourly A-weighted equivalent level for the noisiest hour of the day in the design year
C. Noise Analysis
A noise analysis was conducted using the FHWA's computerized noise prediction model, STAMINA
2.0 (using Colorado emission data). This program evaluates the noise energy produced by traffic in a
segment of roadway based on the traffic volume, speed, and types of vehicles using the roadway. Site-
specific horizontal and vertical conditions are also input to STAMINA in addition to traffic volume
and speed data.
Using existing mapping of the Interstate 70 (I-70) corridor through Vail, an XYZ-coordinate system
was created. The alignment of the roadway (I-70) was translated into the XYZ-coordinate system. By
inputting the alignment as XYZ-coordinates to the STAMINA noise model, the model recreates the
alignment of the roadway.
Noise receivers were identified along the I-70 corridor though Vail. A total of 50 receivers were
identified. Each receiver was translated to the XYZ-coordinate system based on the existing mapping.
The receiver coordinates were also input to the STAMINA model.
The model created an electronic schematic of the I-70 corridor through Vail, including the identified
receiver locations. By inputting the traffic volume, speed, and types of vehicles using the I-70
corridor, the model predicts the noise levels at each receiver location based on the receiver position
from the roadway.
Since the model does not take into account any obstacles between the receiver and the roadway which
may prevent sound energy from reaching the receivers (e.g., buildings, vegetation, partial barriers),
validation measurements were recorded in the field to determine the amount of sound energy blocked
at each receiver location. The amount of sound energy that is blocked by obstacles is called the
shielding factor. This shielding factor was used to calibrate the noise model.
Two noise models were created. One model produces the existing year 2000 noise levels and the other
model predicts the future year 2020 noise levels, based on predicted traffic growth. Both of the models
\ a"
d
Noise V111_3 TOWN OF PAIL
use average annual daily traffic (AADT) volumes. Analysis of the model's sensitivity differences in
speed, variations of receiver locations, and increases in truck traffic were also performed.
Noise Receptors Studied
The study area defined for the noise analysis is shown in Figure VIII-1. A total of 50 individual
receiver sites were identified within the project area, receiver 1 (R1) though receiver 50 (R50).
All of the receivers were modeled at five feet above ground elevation (representing a standing adult)
and were measured at an area of outdoor activity associated with each residence. Figure VIII-1 and the
figures in Appendix D show the location of the noise receivers analyzed in the study.
Traffic Characteristics
In order to determine the noise impacts of I-70, existing and predicted noise levels were calculated for
both the 2000 existing condition and the year 2020 predicted condition.
Existing 2000 traffic volumes were determined by assuming a straight-line growth pattern between
1997 AADT counts (collected by CDOT) and 2020 predicted AADT counts. Using hourly traffic
counts collected by CDOT a peak hour factor of eight percent was determined. The hourly traffic
counts collected by CDOT also provided an average of four percent medium trucks and seven percent
heavy trucks on the roadway. The average speed used in the model was 65 miles per hour (mph).
The I-70 corridor through Vail is divided into four separate segments. The segment divisions are
determined by the different traffic characteristics. Table VIII-3 illustrates the traffic volumes, type of
traffic, and average speeds that each of the four segments carries. The categories of traffic volume,
type of traffic, and average speed were used as input to the STAMINA model in order to predict noise
levels along the I-70 corridor through Vail.

D. Modeling Results
A total of 50 individual receiver sites were analyzed to determine the level of noise impacts associated
with the different locations along the I-70 corridor. The approximate location of each receiver is
illustrated in Figure VIII-1 and Appendix D.
Existing noise levels were computed to be in a range from 46.3 dB(A) at a receiver site 1,125 feet from
I-70 to 74.5 dB(A) 150 feet from I-70. Future conditions were computed to be in a range from 45.7
dB(A) at a receiver site 1,125 feet from 1-70 to 74.0 dB(A) at a distance 150 feet from I-70. Table
VIII-4 shows the receiver, the receiver distance from I-70, the existing noise level reading, and the
2020 predicted noise level reading.

Four receiver sites are found to have noise levels in excess of the noise impact criteria (for new
construction). These receivers, R1, R18, R21, and R28, are currently above the 66 dB(A) noise level.
Figure VIII-1 shows these receivers in bold.
For the year 2020, four receiver sites were predicted to have noise levels in excess of the noise impact
criteria (for new construction). These receivers, R1, R18, R21, and R28, are predicted to have noise
levels above 66 dB(A) in the year 2020, based on projected traffic increases.
The largest noise level increases will occur for receivers located closest to 1-70 or with the best line of
sight of 1-70. However, an increase in the distance from 1-70 does not always reflect a decrease in
noise level. Each receiver may have a different shielding effect based on obstacles between the
receiver and the roadway, which may prevent sound energy from reaching the receivers (e.g.,
buildings, vegetation, and partial barriers). Table VIII-5 defines a range of noise levels for the distance
from 1-70 through the Vail area for both the existing and the predicted 2020 conditions. In all cases the
difference between the existing noise levels and the predicted 2020 noise levels should not be
detectable to the human ear (i.e., less than 3 dB(A))

E. Sensitivity Analysis
A sensitivity analysis was performed based on differences in speed, variations of receiver locations,
and increases in truck traffic. For each category, two sensitivity runs were performed.
1. Speed
The existing year 2000 noise model was altered to model the existing traffic volumes at 60 mph and 55
mph. The analysis showed that on average, an increase of 0.7 dB(A) occurs with every five-mph
increase in speed.
2. Receiver Locations
The existing year 2000 noise model was altered to model differing heights on each receiver. This
would show how noise energy changed by level within multi-level structures. All receivers were
modeled at 10 feet higher than initial elevation and 20 feet higher than the initial elevation. The
analysis showed that on average, an increase of 0.04 dB(A) occurred for the first 10-foot increase in
elevation and an increase of 0.002 dB(A) occurred for the second 10-foot increase in elevation.
This analysis assumed that each level of a multi-level structure has the same shielding factor. In other
words, each level of a multi-level structure has the same amount of sound energy blocked by obstacles
(e.g., buildings, vegetation, and partial barriers).
3. Truck Traffic Increases
The predicted year 2020 noise model was altered to model different percentages of truck traffic
increase. The model assumed a two percent increase in truck traffic and a four percent increase in truck
traffic. The analysis showed that on average, an increase of 0.3 dB(A) occurred for a two percent
A"
TOWN OF PAIL VIII-8 Noise
increase in truck traffic and an increase of 0.6 dB(A) occurred for a four percent increase in truck
traffic.
4. Traffic Volume Increases
The predicted year 2020 noise model uses an AADT of 48,400 vehicles. This AADT is an estimated
increase from existing AADT. A sensitivity analysis of the relative noise level increase based on
increased traffic volumes was performed. Table 6 demonstrates the relative noise level increase based
on traffic volumes.
Table VIII-6
Relative Noise Level Increases Based on Traffic Volumes
Traffic Volumes Relative Noise Level Noise Level Increase

40000 46.0 N/A
45000 46.5 0.5
50000 46.9 0.4
55000 47.4 0.4
60000 47.7 0.3
65000 48.1 I 0.3
5. "Jake Brake" Noise
Truck engine compression brakes (fake brakes) are a noticeable noise contributor along some sections
of westbound I-70, specifically East Vail, near Simba Run and entering Dowd Canyon. Although they
raise the peak noise levels in these areas, they are not thought to make a big difference in the average
noise levels. Additional measurements of peak jake brake noise levels are being done to check the
impact of this noise source.
F. Noise Abatement
No new noise abatement was utilized in this model. A third model will be developed if needed based
on the results of the existing and future condition. The third model will incorporate future conditions
with noise mitigation measures in place.
G. Summary
The following are the results of the traffic noise impacts analysis conducted for the I-70 corridor
through the Town of Vail:
A14
Noise V111_9 TOWN OF PAIL
• Currently, four receiver sites are found to have noise levels in excess of the noise impact
criteria (for new construction). These receivers, R1, R18, R21, and R28 are currently above the
66 dB(A) noise level.
• For the year 2020, four receiver sites were predicted to have noise levels in excess of the noise
impact criteria (for new construction). These receivers, R1, R18, R21, and R28, are predicted to
have noise levels above 66 dB(A) in the year 2020 based on projected traffic increases.
• The largest noise level increases will occur for receivers located closest to I-70 or with the best
line of sight of I-70. However, an increase in the distance from I-70 does not always reflect a
decrease in noise level. Each receiver may have a different shielding effect based on obstacles
between the receiver and the roadway, which may prevent sound energy from reaching the
receivers (e.g., buildings, vegetation, and partial barriers).
• An average increase of 0.7 dB(A) in noise level occurs with every five-mph increase in speed
along I-70.
• An average increase of 0.04 dB(A) in noise level occurred for the first 10-foot increase in
elevation for each receiver and an increase of 0.002 dB(A) in noise level occurred for the
second 10-foot increase in elevation for each receiver.
• An average increase of 0.3 dB(A) in noise level occurred for a two percent increase in truck
traffic along 1-70 and an increase of 0.6 dB(A) in noise level occurred for a four percent
increase in truck traffic along 1-70.
• An average increase of 0.5 dB(A) in noise level occurred for a 5000 vehicle increase in traffic
volume after 40,000 vehicles. An average increase of 0.4 dB(A) in noise level occurred for a
5000 vehicle increase in traffic volume after 45,000 vehicles. An average increase of 0.4 dB(A)
in noise level occurred for a 5000 vehicle increase in traffic volume after 50,000 vehicles. An
average increase of 0.3 dB(A) in noise level occurred for a 5000 vehicle increase in traffic
volume after 55,000 vehicles. An average increase of 0.3 dB(A) in noise level occurred for a
5000 vehicle increase in traffic volume after 60,000 vehicles.
Since this noise analysis does not include highway construction on a new location or the physical
alteration of an existing highway, federal funds cannot be used for noise mitigation. No new noise
abatement was utilized in this model. A third model will be developed if needed based on the results of
the existing and future condition. The third model will incorporate future conditions with noise
mitigation measures in place.

NOTE: Times of items are approximate, subject to change, and cannot be relied upon to
determine at what time Council will consider an item.
6:30 P.M. VAIL LOCAL MARKETING DISTRICT
Special Meeting with the Vail Local Marketing District Board of Directors to
Approve Y2001 Budget by Approving Resolution 1, Series of 2000 (30 mins.)
7:00 P.M. VAIL TOWN COUNCIL MEETING
1. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION. (5 mins.)
2. Consent Agenda. (5 mins.)
• The approval of the November 7th and 21St meeting minutes.
3. Second Reading of the Model Traffic Code Ordinance No. 11, Series 2000.
Tom Moorhead (30 mins.)
Greg Hall
Greg Morrison ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: ACTION REQUESTED OF
COUNCIL: Approve, approve with conditions, or deny Ordinance No. 11,
Series of 2000, on second reading.
BACKGROUND: In 1978 the Town of Vail adopted the Model Traffic Code,
1977 edition for the regulation of traffic within the Town of Vail. That Model
Traffic Code was revised by the Colorado Department of Transportation in
1995. The Model Traffic Code intends to promote uniformity between the
states traffic laws and municipal traffic codes.
The model traffic code establishes speed limits for both residential and
commercial streets and roads. The model traffic code establishes speed
limits of 25 mph in any business district and 30 mph in any residence
district. In order to change the Town's speed limits from what the code
establishes, it has been necessary to do site specific speed studies. The
Town of Vail has conducted these studies and the results are reflected in
exhibit A which is attached to the ordinance. Exhibit A, recommends
specific speed limits in our residential and business area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve Ordinance No. 11, Series 2000, an
ordinance adopting the model traffic code.
4. ORDINANCE NO. 26, Series of 2000
Allison Ochs AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TOWN CODE, TITLE 12, CHAPTER
22, SECTION 4, ADOPTION OF VIEW CORRIDORS, BY ADDING ONE
VIEW CORRIDOR IN LIONSHEAD AND SETTING FORTH DETAILS IN
REGARD THERETO. (5 mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Table second reading of Ordinance
No. 26, Series of 2000, to the December 19, 2000, Town Council meeting.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: At the November 21, 2000, meeting, the
Council requested that staff notify individual owners within Lionshead Center
of the adoption of the View Corridor. To complete this task, staff is
requesting additional time prior to second reading of the ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION: The Community Development Department
recommends that the Town Council table Ordinance No. 26, Series of 2000,
on second reading to the December 19, 2000, Town Council meeting.
5. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 29, Series of 2000 - Setting the Mill Levy
Steve Thompson (15 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with conditions,
or deny Ordinance No. 29, Series of 2000 of second reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONAL: The Town Council must set the mill levy for
the next fiscal year and certify to the County Commissioners by December
15, 2000. Since the de-Brucing of the Property Tax passed last week the
Town Council can assess a base mill levy of 4.69 mills without a mill levy
credit. If that is done the Town will collect an additional $225,779, over what
is currently budgeted if the assessed valuation does not change in early
December.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends that the Town Council
approve Ordinance no. 29, Series of 2000, on second reading.
6. First Reading of Ordinance No. 30, Series of 2000 - Amendment to employee
Steve Thompson pension. (5 mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: ACTION REQUESTED OF
COUNCIL: Approve, approve with conditions, or deny Ordinance No. 30,
Series of 2000, on first reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONAL: Ordinance No. 30, Series of 2000 deletes
Section 7.12 which allowed hardship distributions and amends Section 5.5
allowing a participant who becomes totally disabled to be 100% vested.
Hardship distributions are not allowed in money purchase plans.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve Ordinance No. 30, Series 2000,
amendment to employee pension.
7. First Reading of Ordinance No. 31, Series of 2000 - Amendment to Fire
Steve Thompson and Police Pension. (5 mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: ACTION REQUESTED OF
COUNCIL: Approve, approve with conditions, or deny Ordinance No. 31,
Series of 2000, on first reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Ordinance No. 31, Series of 2000 deletes
Section 7.12 which allowed hardship distributions. Hardship distributions
are not allowed in money purchase plans. A vote by the police and fire
employees will be needed to change Section 5.5 allowing 100% vesting
upon total disability.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve Ordinance No. 31, Series 2000,
amendment to fire and police pension.
8. First Reading of Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2000 - Supplemental No. 5.
Steve Thompson (10 mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with conditions,
or deny Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2000, on first reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE
Please see the enclosed schedule of proposed supplemental appropriations
and adjustments to support supplemental appropriation number 5 of 2000.
A supplemental appropriation of $529,689 is requested of which $110,774
is funded by revenues and the balance of $418,915 coming from fund
balance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve Ordinance No. 32, Series 2000,
Supplement No. 5.
9. First reading of Ordinance No.33, Series of 2000, an ordinance
George Ruther amending the Official Town of Vail Zoning Map and rezoning Lot 4,
Vail Village West Filing No.2 from Residential Cluster zone district to
-General Use zone district; and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(15 mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
conditions, or deny Ordinance No.33, Series of 2000, on first reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Town of Vail is currently in the
process of preparing plans for the development of Donovan Park. A
small tract of land (Lot 4, Vail Village West Filing No. 2) on the
westernmost end of the park site is zoned Residential Cluster district.
The remaining area of the park is zoned more appropriately as
General Use district. Staff believes that since the intent of the park
development is to provide recreational amenities and facilities to the
community and it is not to provide residential uses on the site, that Lot
4 should be rezoned to General Use district.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Community Development
Department recommends that the Town Council approve Ordinance
No.33, Series of 2000, on first reading.

Reservations
*Incorporation of ratings into the reservations sales pitch in order to let the guest know
what they can expect from the accommodations booked
The Vail Valley Tourism& Convention Bureau reservations department and Vail Beaver
Creek Central Reservations each have a list of the overall property scores. Both
companies are in the process of loading ratings into the computer. Property ratings will
be incorporated into the reservations sales pitch and relayed to customers by the end of
December. The Lodging Quality Department will train all central reservation agents how
to use the ratings information during the reservations process.
Website
*Makes information about lodging quality readily available to the public. Streamlines
the administration, communication, and reporting involved in the program.
Hill & Tashiro Marketing has completed the first phase of the Lodging Quality
Assurance website. Lodging Quality information will be available through the websites
of the VVTCB and Vail Resorts. We are in the process of populating the database with
information, in order to go live this month. In addition to making LQA information
readily available to the public, this site has been set up in order to facilitate the tracking
and paperwork involved in the entire lodging quality process. Broadcast e-mail
capabilities will make it extremely easy to communicate with all of those involved in
lodging quality. Attached is a brief description of information to be included on the site.
It
Communication
*The VVTCB will stay in touch with the second homeowners, as well as the community
regarding Lodging Quality.
Lodging Quality "Magazine"- Bi-annual: This is a publication that we will publish in
house twice a year. This piece will highlight Lodging Quality information and upgrades,
as well as skier and resort trends. There will also be a vendor resource guide, aimed at
the second homeowner, included in this piece. Our intent is to distribute this publication
to all second homeowners, property management companies, and hotels. It will be
displayed in various businesses throughout the Vail Valley, as well as both information
centers. We expect the first issue to be out spring of 2001.
Guest Feedback:
We are developing a guest survey tool that will be used to measure, specifically, the
progress of Lodging Quality. Data will be published as it is received and intcLF,eted.
Lodging Quality Website.
Public PaSe
-Overview, history, and description of the Lodging Quality Program. This page is an
introduction to the site.
Properties & Ratines
-Comprehensive list of all properties and their ratings.
Newsletter
-Will contain current Lodging Quality information. This page gives us a way to
communicate program updates to the public, as well as the community.
Vendor Section
-These pages will contain a list of building contractors, furniture stores, and other
businesses that will facilitate the renovation process for owners and property managers.
Anyone will be able to log on and search for vendors that can assist them with their
particular upgrades.
Member's Onlv
-This section will provide information for the property management. Managers will be
able to log on and retrieve their property checklists, as well as property requirements, and
monthly inspection schedules. There will also be a section where they can e-mail
feedback and comments to lodging quality management.
In addition to the above, the VVTCB will be able to load all checklist and touring
information into the database that was built for the site. We will be able to run reports
that will help in identifying problem areas and improvements throughout the valley.
Communication will be extremely efficient with our broadcast e-mail capabilities, and
instead of copying all checklists for the properties; we will simply send them
electronically- saving a lot of time and paper.
Lodging Quality Scores
As of December 5, 2000
RATING DESCRIPTIONS OVERVIEW
P: PLATINUM 900/0-1000/0
A unit with this rating represents the finest accommodations in the area. The
furnishings and appointments are superior, as are all other aspects of the interior. First
impressions are "WOW!" Everything in the unit is first rate and coordinated. Style and
design are unsurpassed. These properties are the best of the best and are not lacking in
any area.
G: GOLD 800/6-89%
A unit with this rating reflects recent interior design motifs and coordinated decorating
efforts. Inventory contained within each room of the home or unit is upscale and in
excellent condition. In short, a gold unit is comfortable and stylish with the feeling of
home.
S: SILVER 700/o-790/o
A unit with this rating reflects a nice accommodation with quality furniture that is
gently used. A consistent style is apparent throughout, although unit is a bit older and
lacking in thoroughness and finishing touches.
B: BRONZE 60%-690/6
A unit with this rating reflects a more sterile environment. Personality and decorating
motifs are present, albeit not fully coordinated; there may be a "pieced together" feel.
First impressions are "OK". Inventory contained in each room of the home or unit is
mostly utilitarian and meets minimum expectations. In short, a bronze unit offers a no
frills, but acceptable lodging experience.
0: SUBSTANDARD Below 60%
A unit with this rating does not meet minimal rating standards. First impressions are
generally, "I won't stay here!" Inventory contained in each room of the home or unit is
sparse, mismatched, and/or severely worn or broken. In short, a substandard unit does
not reflect first class resort lodging to destination vacationers. We will not rent
substandard properties in the Vail Valley.

percent to 2.9 percent effective January 1, 2001.
Sales tax forms and the Vail Business Review are available on the internet at http://ci.vail.co.us.

Please remember when reading the Vail Business Review that it is produced from sales tax
collections, as opposed to actual gross sales.

SUSAN RUTH F RFORD-
Dec. 12, 2000
Vail Town Council
Dear Council Members,
I am the co-owner of a duplex with Kaye Ferry. It just came to my attention one hour
ago that there will be a discussion today about the co-signature ordinance. This ordinance
has been very successful in enabling me to resolve building issues with my neighbor Kaye
Ferry. Solely because of this ordana_ r. Ms- E ny for the first time in 19 months began
working with me. In late October she sent me a set of plans and asked for my input. I felt
we were finally making progress. Since then I have been corresponding with Ms. Ferry
and have had several meetings with architects resolving structural and drainage problems.
In fact, I am corning to Vail tomorrow and I had asked for a meeting with Ms. Ferry to try
to work out the last issues. I was told Ms. Ferry would he out of state.
This new effort to change the rules-- the very ordinance rule which has caused Ms. Ferry
to communicate with me --this effort seems inconsistent with what I had thought was Ms.
Ferry's good faith to resolve the outstanding issues. This is very disappointing to me.
I regret that this two signature issue is before you agairAccause you and the PEC staff
have already wasted so much time reviewing meaningless plans. I remember one of the
councilmen saying during the last Town meeting, "We have a town to run, this is wasting
our time." There have been seven Town hearings regarding this duplex. With the
passing of the two-signature ordinance, progress was finally being made. Changing or
rescinding this ordinance will put the Town back in the middle of this situation and will
-turn a cooperative relationship into an adversarial relationship. There will be once
again more time wasted reviewing unapproved plans, this is not a logical direction for the
Town to take.
Please do not change or rescind this ordinance. This ordinance has totally changed the
relationship between me and Ms. Ferry. We were finally communicating and working on
the plans together. Much progress has been made and I don't want to return to the
adversity and discord of the past. Thank you for your time.

Dear Town Council:
I am writing in response to Mr. Cadmus' letter of December 5, even though Mr. Cadmus
did not copy me.
So as not to rely solely on my memory, I called Greg Morrison to research the noise
complaints against the Daily Grind. Even though there have been many complaints made,
never in the 11 years of my operation has a citation ever been issued. Noise meters have
been used to verify the fact that we have consistently been within the Town if Vail noise
ordinance limits.
Some visitors to Vail have lost track of the fact that this is a resort community.
Unfortunately, they decide to stay in the center of Vail Village and expect it to be quiet.
Ironically, they don't expect this quiet to exist only at night, we know they also object to
garbage trucks in the morning, snow making in the evening and most recently we've been
told they don't like their afternoon naps disturbed .
The Grind has always attempted to comply with town ordinances and will continue to do
so in the future.

Appendix D
This appendix contains the mapping for the Vail area. The mapping lays out the alignment of
Interstate 70 (I-70) through Vail. The mapping also shows the location of the noise receivers identified
in Chapter VIII: Noise. A solid circle indicates the location of each receiver. Each receiver location is
labeled with the receiver number as well as the existing year 2000 noise level.
Page 2 of this appendix details the overall configuration of the mapping with a schematic. The
schematic identifies each sheet by number and identifies the placement of the sheet in the mapping
configuration. The individual sheets are numbered corresponding to the schematic. The sheet number
is located in the lower right portion of the border. The sheets are laid out west to east. Not all of the
sheets are included in this appendix. Only the sheets containing receiver locations or noise contour
lines are presented.
The noise contour lines are represented in the mapping by thick dashed lines. The noise level is
indicated by the line style. The contour lines are labeled on each sheet.

° Collapse of Roman amphitheater, 27 A.D., 50,000 injured or killed.
Regulations enacted for the safety of public places.
• Rome burns, 64 A.D.
• Assize of Buildings enacted in London, 1189. Regulated method of
building party walls. Placed a high value on stone construction.
• Wooden chimneys prohibited and chimney inspectors appointed in New
York, 1648. Regulations "obstinately and carelessly neglected by many of
the inhabitants," and wooden chimneys and thatched roofs ordered
removed in 1657.
• Great Fire of London, 1666. Partial destruction of 15,000 buildings.
London Building Act enacted too late by Parliament Already obsolete and
no effective enforcement.

Disasters & Codes in
History, continued
• Fire district established in New York, 1766. "...all buildings
shall be made of stone or brick and roofed with tile or slate."
• George Washington and Thomas Jefferson involved in
establishing construction laws for the nation's capital. Initial
requirements for exterior & party walls of brick & stone
modified to allow wood frame structures up to 12 ft. in height
and 328 sq. ft. in area in order to house construction workers.
• First real building codes appeared in 1862, plumbing
regulations in 1880, regulations for elevators & hoists in 1883.
Height of nonfireproof buildings limited beginning in 1885.
20th Century United States Fire Disasters:
1903-Iroquois Theater, Chicago-602 killed.
1908-Lakeview Grammar School, Cleveland-175 killed.
1911-Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, New York City-145 killed. After this
famous fire, the Safety to Life Committee, the first step toward stringent
modern fire codes, was formed.
1937-Consolidated School, New London, Texas-294 killed.
1942-Coconut Grove Night Club, Boston-492 killed. This notorious
fire led to improved fire and building exit codes.
1946-Hotel Winecoff, Atlanta-119 killed.
1958-Our Lady of the Angels School, Chicago-95 killed.
1977-Beverly Hills Supper Club, Southgate, Kentucky-165 killed. Fire

Development and Evolution of the
Uniform Building Code (UBC)
• Begun in California by an organization of local building
officials.
• Prompted by idea of using a common code so that each
jurisdiction didn't have to draft it's own building code from
scratch.
• Also benefited architects, engineers, contractors,
homebuilders and the rest of the design & construction
industry because multiple cities and counties used the same
code requirements.
• Organization expanded to the Pacific Coast and then became
the International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO).
• First Uniform Building Code (UBC) published in 1927.
Evolution of the UBC: The Code
Development Process
• Anyone may propose an amendment to the code.
• Only building officials and fire officials may sit on code
development committees or vote on changes to the code.
• The design and construction industry, materials suppliers,
testing laboratories, consultants, etc., provide a great deal of
input into the code development process.
• This is a nationally recognized consensus process, that arrives at
reasonable, feasible minimum safety standards for the design
and construction industry.
• Code development committees hear proposed changes at
annual hearings. Final decisions on proposed code changes are
voted upon by code officials at a separate annual conference.
Building Code Summary

Maximum Allowable Area and Height System Based
Upon Combination Of:
• Occupancy (type of use) & relative vulnerability
of occupants or hazard posed to others.
• Type of Construction (combustible or non-
combustible materials, fire-resistive or non-rated
construction, etc.)
Some Common
PWOMI
"Triggers" for Various
_ Life Safety Features in
Buildings...
Automatic Fire Sprinkler Systems. Hotels, condos or
apartment buildings three (3) stories or more in height or
having 16 or more dwelling units or 20 or more guest rooms.
Noncombustible, Fire-Resistive Construction.
Generally, buildings more than four (4) stories in height.
High Rise Construction Requirements. Business or
Residential buildings having habitable floors that are more
than 75 feet above the lowest point of fire department access.
Limits On Use of Wood on
°w Exterior of Larger, Taller
F Buildings
Generally buildings 4 or more stories in height may have
substantial amounts of wood on the exterior only if all of the
following requirements are met:
• Walls front on streets or yards having a width of 40 feet or
more.
• Bulkheads below show windows, show-window frames, aprons
and showcases may be of combustible materials, provided the
height of such construction does not exceed 15 ft. above grade.
• Wood veneer of boards not less than 1-inch nominal thickness
or exterior-type panels not less than 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) nominal
thickness may be applied to walls, provided the veneer does not
exceed 15 ft. above grade, and further provided such veneer shall

be placed either directly against noncombustible surfaces. or
furred out from such surfaces not to exceed 1-5/8 inches with all
concealed spaces fire-blocked as provided in Section 708. Where
boards, panels and furring as described above comply with
Section 207 as fire-retardant-treated wood suitable for
exterior exposure, the height above grade may be
increased to 35 feet.
601.5.5 Trim. Trim, picture molds, chair rails, baseboards,
handrails and show-window backing may be of wood.
Unprotected wood doors and windows may be used except
where openings are required to be fire protected.

Focus of the
U-WORK BUILMNIG
Building Code...
• Primarily regulates new construction.
• Also some maintenance issues with
required life safety features and systems.
In Vail, we also deal with a great deal of
new construction in existing buildings.

MINIMUM NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED
SAFETY STANDARDS
"The primary intent of building regulation is to provide
reasonable controls for the construction, use and occupancy of
buildings... Thus such codes are minimum in nature, and
under the provisions of the 'police power' cannot legally be
made to require construction of a quality excessive of that
which is necessary to furnish a reasonable degree of safety...
Codes must be based on what are generally
accepted as good standards of construction.
Only those provisions which are reasonable,
practical or necessary can be legally
enforced."

What
t Does
t4: This All
Mean For
Vail?
• Our building stock is aging and many of our
buildings do not meet current minimum nationally
recognized safety standards.
• It takes a great deal of staff time to assess the life
safety characteristics of existing buildings as we
attempt to deal with proposed remodels and
additions.
• Our goal is to improve the life safety characteristics
of our existing buildings with each construction
project.
• We support quality redevelopment throughout the
town.
Time, Talent, Knowledge &
Resources
-Well trained, adequately staffed and otherwise
well supported departments can actually afford to
take a more reasonable approach.
• They can devote more time and apply more
knowledge and thus often offer or review more
creative solutions, more cost effective alternatives,
& otherwise serve as a resource to the community.
• There is no room for compromise on the level of
safety, but there is great latitude for equivalency.
Quality vs. Quantity
• Issues with quality of plans coming in for review
and going out. Also an issue with inspections.
• We need to improve the quality of plans being
submitted through public awareness and
education.
• In a similar fashion, we need to improve the
quality of construction management on the job
site.
• Better able to I.D. "red flags," avoid pitfalls,
surprises later in the process.

Dear Town Council:
Attached you will find a copies of the letters recently delivered to two of our former
Board members. We felt it necessary to relieve them of their duties for the reasons stated
in the letters.
The Executive Committee was disturbed by the fact that a presentation was made to the
Town Council and such presentation's purpose was to undermine the very foundation of
an organization whose express purpose is to unify the community. And this action was
taken by two members of our own Board.
Contrary to what you have been lead to believe, there is always room for dissenting
opinions in an organization. More over, we all knew going in to this that there were going
to be many points of view that would need accommodation. At our meetings we have
attempted to provide a forum for just such discussion. However, it is our adamant opinion
that once a decision has been made, it is imperative that the Board be united in its
implementation of those decisions.
Sincerely,
