EVENING MEETING

concerns, staff would draft a contract based on the VCBA's ability
to implement their business plan. The final decision to be made

from the business license fee for its first year of operation. The
Council has previously discussed either aone-time allocation or
quarterly advances based on accountability and fulfillment of
requested action outcomes.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Proceed with a decision on funding

4. iTEMITOPIC: First reading of an ordinance amending section 1-5~
Tom Moorhead 11 C. of the Town Code establishing the order of business at regular
and special meetings of the Town Council. (5 mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider adoption of
Ordinance #1, Series of 2001.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Upon occasion there have been
public hearings involving matters that are not the consideration of
ordinances, resolutions and motions that attract a large number of
interested parties and the general public. Under the circumstances
it may be appropriate to consider those other matters earlier in the
agenda than established by the Order Of Business as set forth in
Section 1-5~11C. This amendment will give the Mayor authority when
considering the agenda to vary the order of business to facilitate an
orderly process to the Council meeting and allow a matter of great
public interest to be considered earlier in the course of the Council
business.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Ordinance 1, Series of 2001.
~. ITEMITOPIC: First reacting of Ordinance 2, Series of 2001; an
Brent Wilson ordinance amending the Town of Vail Subdivision Regulations to allow
for the creation of a subdivision exemption and correction plat review
process. {2Q mins.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
Approve, approve with modifications, or deny the ordinance on first
reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
The Town of Vail Subdivision Regulations currently limit
applications for basic land subdivision to two types of review: 1)
major subdivisions, and 2} minor subdivisions. However, the Town
frequently handles applications that fall outside the purview of '
these processes. Under the current code, minor plat changes
(corrections, plat note amendments, etc.) are routed through the
minor subdivision process, even though a formal subdivision of
land may not occur. Additionally, applicants who wish to plat
existing unplatted properties must create a minimum of two parcels
in order to comply with current code requirements. This has proven
problematic for applicants.
In an attempt to make the subdivision review process more "user
friendly," staff is presenting a proposed new chapter that allows for
an administrative review process for "exemption" and "correction"
plats. The process is modeled after our existing "minor
amendment" process for special development districts. This new
process would allow for staff review of certain plats with a PEC
affirmationldeniai at a public hearing.
Subdivision regulations from a number of jurisdictions across
Colorado (Eagle County, Jefferson County, Douglas County, City of
Aurora) as well as enabling legislation from state statutes were
researched while preparing these amendments. Please refer to the
staff memorandum for a detailed summary of the proposed
changes.
RECOMMENDATION:
~n January 8th, the PEC voted unanimously to recommend
approval of the proposed amendments.
The Department of Community Development recommends that the
Town Council approve the proposed amendments to the Subdivision
Regulations.

2) Discussion of Donovan Park Project {1 hr.}
Todd Oppenheimer - Cost Update
George Ruther -Request to Award Bid Package 1A
ITEMITOPIC:
The purpose of this meeting is to provide an update to the Vail Town Council
on the status of the Donovan Community Park construction process. The
design team has made significant progress since last appearing before
Council and believes an update to the client is beneficial.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
listen to the design team's presentation and then provide direction and input
to the team on items of concern or question. The team is also requesting that
the Council authorize the staff to proceed with the awarding of the site work
package 1A to Continental West Construction.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
The Vail Town Council directed staff to proceed with the construction of the
Donavan Community Park Phase I improvements. These improvements
include the construction of a new soccer field, playground, community
pavilion, parking structure and appurtenant facilities. The proposed total
park construction budget is approximately $10 million dollars.
The initial phases of the construction process are well under way. The first
of three separate construction bid packages {1A - C) has been sent out for
competitive bid and a potential contractor for the site work package (1A) has
been informed of our intent to construct. The latter packages {1 B & C)
continue to be formulated. Start of construction of the site work is tentatively
scheduled to begin this spring. Subsequent work will follow throughout the
summer and fall.
A preliminary construction estimate has been completed. The construction
cost figures continue to be refined. Early value engineering options are
being considered and dollar amounts are being assigned. Most importantly,
the design team remains committed to bringing this project in on time and on
budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
If the Town Council wishes to proceed with this project on the current
schedule and to approve the award of Phase 1A, Council will need to
approve a minimum budget of $10.5M. If Council approves of inclusion of
any other "wish list" items, the overall budget may have to be increased to
include the cost of those items.

Authority. (5 min.)
Tom Moorhead
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider adoption of Resolution
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Vail Housing Authority was created
pursuant to Section 29-4-201 et seq. of the Colorado Revised Statutes. On
February 21, 1991, the Vail Housing Authority was sworn in and adopted
Resolutions necessary for the governance of the Authority. The Vail Housing
Authority is a distinct, independent governmental entity from the Town of
Vail.
The powers of the Vail Housing Authority are set forth in Section 29-4-209
C.R.S. which include exercising public powers and having all the powers
necessary to carry out and effect the purposes established in the "Housing
Authority's Law."
The Housing Authority has the capability of developing financing scenarios
through unrated affordable housing bonds which give investors a strong
project but without pledging substantial financial resources of the town.
The Housing Authority Board had consisted of five voting members
appointed in 5-year intervals and an additional non-voting member from the
Planning and Environmental Commission. The five voting members also
included a representative of the Vail Town Council. If this Resolution is
adopted, the Vail Town Council would then convene in a meeting as the
Housing Authority to conduct the business of that entity.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution.

The Town of Vail's current environmental programs include the
following:
Curbside Household Hazardous Waste collection for residents
Green Star Environmental Certification Program
Recycling at Municipal Building and a# 7 locations throughout the
Village and Lionshead
Ongoing water quality study of the Gore Creek
Noxious Weed Abatement Program
Pine Beetle Abatement
Annual Spring Clean Up of Town of Vail
Mauri Nottingham Environmental Quality Awards
The Town has recently been working with Vail Resorts on pine beetle
mitigation, noxious weed abatement and most recently has partnered
on a car pooling incentive for skiers. Since both the Town and Vail
Resorts have recycling and Green Star Programs, we feel that we
should be partnering in these areas as well as other environmen#al
areas that have not been addressed by either group.
RECOMMENDATION:
Town staff believes that we should work in conjunction with Vail
Resorts to help one another communicate a strong environmental
message to the public and possibly adopfi the Natural Step philosophy
of doing business.
5. ITEMITOPIC:
Patrick Hamel The Division of Wildlife has requested time to speak with the Town
Council regarding bear issues in the Town of Vail. (45 min.}
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
Provide direction to Town staff on whether or not to proceed with
actions that would help to minimize the occurrence of bear encounters
in the Town of Vail.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
The Town of Vail is located in Black bear habitat and bears are
frequently seen within the Town of Vail. Each year there are
hundreds of reports to the Division of Wildlife and the Vail Police
Department of Black bears in the Town of Vail. Many of the
complaints received by the Division of Wildlife are due to bears
getting into peoples trash that was left out overnight, or because of
the incidental feeding of bears because people left their pet's food out
or hung their bird feeder to low.
Bears, once accustomed to easily available garbage and pet food, will
continue to pursue these options on a regular basis. The bear soon
associates humans with food, which becomes inherently dangerous.
Several other communities throughout the United States have
adopted ordinances that either limit when trash can be put out or
require bear proof containers to be used.
RECOMMENDATION:
Town staff believes we should work with the Division of Wildlife to
come up with some bear ordinance options for the Town Council to
review and decide on what would work best for the residents of Vail.

Allison Ochs ITEMlTOPIC:
First reading of Ordinance #5, Series of 2001, an ordinance amending
the Town Code, Title 12, Chapter 13, to allow for corrections to the
Employee Housing Regulations; Chapter 21, to allow for corrections
to the Hazard Regulations; Chapter 15, to allow for corrections to the
Grass Residential Floor Area Regulations; Chapter 2, to allow for
corrections to the definition chapter and for the addition of a definition
of "owner"; Chapter 6, to allow for clarification to the 425 credit;
Chapter 7, to allow for clarification to the PA Zone District; and Title
13, Chapter 2, to allow for clarification to the definition of
"subdivision"; and Title 8, Chapter 3, to allow for clarification of the
Department of Public Works role in the issuance of right-of--way
permits and setting forth details in regard thereto. (20 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
Approve, approve with conditions, ar deny Ordinance #5, Series of
2001, an firs} reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
Through the review process of various zoning applications, problems
arise with specific code sections that are not clear to either applicants
or staff. This often occurs with zoning code amendments, changes
in procedures, or errors in codification. Therefore, staff periodically
returns to the Planning and Environmental Commission and to the
Town Council to "clean-up" the Zoning, Subdivision, and Sign Codes.
These amendments are no# to amend the substantive content of the
code, but to "clean-up" errors and clarify sections of the code. None
of the proposed amendments result in a change of policy. The
Planning and Environmental Commission recommended approval of
the text amendments at their February 12, 2001, meeting. The
amendments to the Town Code included in this memorandum are
described in the staff memorandum.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Community Development
Department recommends that the Town Council approve Ordinance
#5, Series of 2001, on first reading
7. First reading of Ordinance #7, Series of 2001, a supplemental
Steve Thompson ordinance making supplemental appropriations and budget
adjustments from the Town of Vail Heavy Equipment Fund, Real
Estate Transfer Tax Fund, General Fund, Capital Projects Fund, of
the 2001 Budget and the Financial Plan far the town of Vail,
Colorado; and authorizing the expenditures of said appropriations
as set forth herein; and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(5 min.)
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The first supplemental
appropriation is primarily needed to fund projects that take more
than one year to finish. The amount budgeted in a prior year, but
unspent, is what is referred to as the rollforward amount. Out of
the proposed $2.7 million in supplemental appropriation, $2.1
million is funded by unspent budgets from 2000 with the balance of
the supplemental appropriation at $602,571. The largest projects
included in the $502,751 requiring additional monies include: 3rd
sheet of ice, $150,000; smart bus technology, $250,000; Vail
Center design, $235,000. The enclosed schedule should help
clarify the details of the supplemental appropriation. The $87,000
for RETT collection costs was on the schedule of RETT
expenditures that the Town Council approved for the 2001 budget,
but the amount was inadvertently excluded from the appropriation.
We ended the year 2000 with healthier fund balances than
anticipated by the following amounts: (Unaudited)
General Fund $1.3 Million
Capital Projects Fund $1.4 Million
RETT Fund $1 Million
Heavy Equip Fund $204,247
Based on the above amounts, there is adequate savings to fund
these supplemental appropriations. The Capital Projects Fund is
the only fund where the supplemental appropriation exceeds the
unanticipated prior year fund balance increase of $1.4 million.
$. ITEMITOPIC: Second reading of Ordinance 2, Series of 200; a
Brent Wilson ordinance amending the Town of Vail Subdivision Regulations to allow
for the creation of a subdivision exemption and correction plat review
process. (10 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
Approve, approve with modifications, or deny the ordinance on
second reading.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
Planning staff and the Town Attorney met recently with Arthur
Abpfanalp to discuss issues with the proposed exemption plat
ordinance. Please refer to the staff memorandum for a summary of
ordinance revisions proposed.
RECOMMENDATION:
On January 8th, the PEC voted unanimously to recommend
approval of the proposed amendments.
The Department of Community Development recommends that the
Town Council approve the proposed amendments to the
Subdivision Regulations.
9. ITEMITOPIC: Vail Meadows Purchase of Lots 1, 2, 3, and 4 (10 min.)
Russ Forrest
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider purchase of Lots 1,
2, 3, and 4, Vail Meadows Filing, Na. 2.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Town of Vail has the opportunity
to purchase Lots 1 through 4, Vail Meadows Filing 2 for a total
amount of $155,000. All four lots are listed as high priority
acquisitions in the Town of Vail Open Lands Plan. The Town of Vail
previously acquired Lots 5-12, Vail Meadows Filing No. 2 in 1992 and
those properties are presently zoned as Natural Area Preservation

zoned Naturai Area Preservation District and abut National Forest
Lands on the East and South. The lots are located at the confluence
of the Gore Creek and the Black Gore Creek with views to Bald
Mountain.

a pedestrian bridge to be constructed. This creek crossing would
provide access for residents to the forest just beyond the lots. The
purchase contracts contain the following covenants which have been
reviewed by the Town Attorney and staff and are consistent with the
Open Lands Plan.
The Tawn of Vail shall make written application for zoning change
on the subject property from AgriculturelOpen Space to Natural

in good faith said zoning change. Town of Vail shall seek to limit
access across Gore Creek to the subject property fio pedestrians

Tom Moorhead
ITEMITOPIC: First reading of AN ORDINANCE CORRECTING
ORDINANCE NO. 23 SERIES OF 2000 AMENDING THE OFFICIAL
ZONING MAP FOR THE TOWN OF VAIL IN ACCORDANCE WITH
TITLE 12, ZONING REGULATIONS, CHAPTER 5, ZONING MAP; RE
ZONING THE "VAIL GOLF COURSE CLUBHOUSE SUBDIVISION"
FROM OUTDOOR RECREATION {OR) DISTRICT TO GENERAL
USE {GU) DISTRICT. (15 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider Adoption of
Corrected Ordinance.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: On November 7, 2000 the Vail Town
Council approved, on second reading, Ordinance 23, Series of 2000,
which amended the official Zoning Map and rezoned the "Vail Golf
Course Clubhouse Subdivision" from Outdoor Recreation (OR} District
to General Use {GU} District. The minutes of Council's consideration
are attached. Also attached is the Ordinance as executed and on file
in the Town of Vail. This Ordinance is not consistent with Council 's
findings and the motion made by Greg Moffet, seconded by Sybil
Navas and passed unanimously by the Vail Town Council. The
document, as signed, did not contain the appropriate Section 1, which
included findings of fact, or Section 2, which contained conclusions of
law.
The Ordinance as published in the Vail Trail on November 10, 2000
is also attached and while it contained the findings of fact in Section
1 and the conclusions of law in Section 2, it failed to contain the legal
description in Section 3.
Due to the inconsistencies, we are offering a correction Ordinance to
be passed on two readings and appropriately published in the Vail
Trail, so that the Council's Endings are properly reflected in the record
of its proceedings.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve Ordinance No. 9, Series of
2001.

7.
Steve Thompson ITEMITOPIC: Second reading of Ordinance #7, Series of 2001, a
supplemental ordinance making supplemental appropriations and
budget adjustments from the Town of Vail Heavy Equipment Fund,
Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund, General Fund, Capital Projects
Fund, of the 2001 Budget and the Financial Plan far the town of
Vail, Colorado; and authorizing the expenditures of said
appropriations as set forth herein; and setting forth details in regard
thereto.
(5 min.)
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The second reading of the
supplemental appropriation has been increased by $191,306. This
increase in the supplemental is due to audit adjustments that
increase the rollforward amounts for three of the projects included.
The three projects were the third sheet of ice, parking structure
maintenance improvements, and the North Trail Townhomes
project.
The first supplemental appropriation is primarily needed to fund
projects that take more than one year to finish. The amount
budgeted in a prior year, but unspent, is what is referred to as the
rollforward amount. Out of the proposed $2.7 million in
supplemental appropriation, $2.1 million is funded by unspent
budgets from 2000 with the balance of the supplemental
appropriation at $602,571. The largest projects included in the
$602,751 requiring additional monies include: 3rd sheet of ice,
$150,000; smart bus technology, $250,000; Vail Center design,
$235,000. The enclosed schedule should help clarify the details of
the supplemental appropriation. The $87,000 for RETT collection
costs was an the schedule of RETT expenditures that the Town
Council approved for the 20D1 budget, but the amount was
inadvertently excluded from the appropriation.
We ended the year 2000 with healthier fund balances than
anticipated by the following amounts: (Unaudited)
General Fund $1.3 Million
Capital Projects Fund $1.4 Mi{lion
RETT Fund $1 Million
Heavy Equip Fund $204,247
Based on the above amounts, there is adequate savings to fund
these supplemental appropriations. The Capital Projects Fund is
the only fund where the supplemental appropriation exceeds the
unanticipated prior year fund balance increase of $1.4 million.
8. ITEMITOPIC: Winter Festival Funding (Spae#h Design). {10 min.}
Todd Oppenheimer
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: On March 20, Council heard a
proposal for design of a Winter Festival through the Concept
Phase. This included:
- Spaeth would bring their team to Vail for one (1 }intense week, at
the end of which Spaeth would present their ideas in story-board
form.
- After receiving feedback from Council, Spaeth would return to
New York to fine tune and/or modify their concept.
- Final presentation of the Winter Festival Concept would be
approximately 30 days after.
Issues critical to this start up phase include timing. Spaeth is
interested in assembling not only their internal team but they would
like to get a respectable representation of Council, storeawners,
hoteliers, and general business license holders in the community.
They would suggest a week ending on "Tuesday," so the story
board presentation could be made to the Town Council. Not
wishing to schedule over Easter weekend, this would involve
moving past the dose of the ski season. Unfortunately, #hat also
coincides with the month of May, traditionally a time when a
majority of business license holders are out of town.
The cost of this Concept Phase for the Winter Festival: $85,000.
9. Colorado Open Request for Funding. {15 min.)
David Edmiston BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Vail Valley Tourism

- "million dollar hole in one" contest which will run T days at the
Vail Goff Course
- Vail Valley Foundation will be partnering with the Colorado Open
to host a Friday night concert at the Ford Amphitheater
- Direct mail effort to "invite" past spectators to Vail lodges during

Tom Moorhead rTEMITOPIC: First reading of Ordinance No. 10, Series of 2001, an
ordinance authorizing the conveyance of fee title to the following real
property owned by the Town of Vail and located at 770 Potato Patch
Road. (30 min.}
BACKGROUND RATONALE: On December 1,1994, the Town of Vail
acquired the care taker unit at 770 Potato Patch Drive Condominiums for
$76,000. The Town was able to acquire this unit as a result of a law suit
filed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation against the Town of Vail
and 770 Potato Patch Drive Condominium Association to remove a
restriction on the unit being utilized as a care taker unit and not to be sold
separate from the other common elements of the Association. FDIC had
acquired the title to the unit as Receiver of Silverado Banking, Savings and
Loan Association upon its failure.
The Town of Vail received the property by Quick Claim Deed from Silverado
Investment Company without restrictions on resale. The last appraisal on
khe unit was $225,000. The unit has been rented to a Town of Vail
employee for $850 a month.
This unit, due to its value and due to the expensive monthly assessments
and special assessments, is not ideal as an employee housing rental unit.
It is believed that a sale could be consummated which would provide the
opportunity to buy one or two additional units that would more appropriately
function as housing for employees.
STAFP APPROVE: The Staff recommends the Town Council approve
Ordinance No. 10, Series of 2001, on first reading and direct staff to identify
a listing agent and an asking price and a "must exceed" price before 2nd
reading.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve. approve with conditions,

(30 min.}
Tam Moorhead
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider the Town of
VaiIlVVaterhouse Encroachment Agreement.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Stephen and Linda Waterhouse
received approval to construct a 2-car garage on their property
loco#ed at 285 Forest Road. The Planning and Environmental
Commission granted a variance to allow the garage to extend into the
firont set-back consistent with the garage that was being demolished
to provide for the construction of the present garage. After the garage
was constructed it was determined through an ILC survey that the
garage encroached 7" across the property line and onto the Town of
Vail right-of--way.
The Waterhouses have previously requested Council's approval of
the encroachment and upon motion to approve the encroachment it
failed to pass due to a 3 to 3 Council vote.
Subsequently the Waterhouses filed a complaint in the Eagle County
District Court seeking issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. The
Town filed a counterclaim seeking a mandatory injunction compelling
removal of the encroachment and for damages for trespass on the
Town's land. Following a hearing on the Town's request for
mandatory injunction the District Court dismissed the Town's
counterclaim reques#ing that the garage be removed from the right-of-
way and ordered that the Waterhouses be permitted to occupy and
use the garage and to convey the same as an appurtenance to the
property.
By entering into this Encroachment Agreement it will allow the parties
to settle the dispute and discharge all past and present claims with
respect to the garage and the property.
By the terms of the Encroachment Agreemenfi, the Wa#erhouses will
be paying $30,000 to the Town of Vail and the Town will be an
additional insured on the Waterhouses' insurance policy for any
damages that may result due to the location of the garage.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Encroachment
Agreement.

(30 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider adoption of
Ordinance 11.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Town of Vail has had no
Municipal Ordinances regulating the use of electric vehicles or golf
carts within the Town of Vail. There has been a traditional use at the
golf course for golf course maintenance and for players on the course.
The Sonnenalp has used these vehicles in their loading and delivery
plan. This item was addressed in response to a request by the Vail
Mountain Lodge to transport skiers to the lifts at Golden Peak.
As a result of that discussion, while it was determined that it is not
appropriate to increase the use of these vehicles far delivery of skiers
to Golden Peak, it is appropriate to adopt regulations consistent with
the present use at this time in the Tawn of Vail.

ACTION REQUE5TED OF COUNCIL:
Staff is requesting final direction on the uses the uses and size of
those uses that should be further explored by the community and the
design team.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
On April 17th the Town Council directed staff to move forward with
physical and financial planning on meetingllearning center, 300
seat community theatre, and a recreational facility that would
include a 2nd sheet of ice, a skatepark, and a youth center. On
May 8th, the Town Council directed staff to evaluate eliminating the
300-seat theatre and to place a theatrical fly on the 20,000 square
foot meeting room. On May 22, 2001 the Town Council decided
not to have a facilitated meeting but rather to vote on each element
of the Vail Center program on June 19th. On June 4th, meeting
was held with cultural arts interests in the Vaii Valley. In this
meeting the following recommendations were made: 1 }reserve a
foot print fora 1200 seat theatre: 2} create a 200 seat theatre in the
conference facili#y, 3) develop a 10 year cultural arts plan, 4} make
the 20,000 square foot space "performance friendly", and 5)
alternative A is preferred because it would allow phasing of uses.
Further design work has been halted along with planned
community meetings on the design and financing. In addition, Vail
Resorts has been reviewing the financial viability of Plan A that
integrates the community uses with a new parking structure. It is
critical to reconfirm the fundamental uses of the facility so that
additional design work and community dialogue can occur. On July
24th, the Town Council will need to make a final determination on
whether a November election 'ts still viable.

Ry Southard
Request from the Vail Alpine Garden Foundation to transfer
$100,000 RETT fund budget allocation from the Gore Creek Trail
project to the proposed Alpine Plaza -Phase 2, Schoolhouse and
Children's Garden expansion project as a contribution toward the
funding of the project.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
Approve the $100,000 contribution toward the funding of the Alpine
Plaza -Phase 2, Schoolhouse and Children 's Garden expansion
project, and taking the same amount away from the budgeted Gore
Creek Trail project.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE:
Vail Alpine Garden Foundation (VAGF) is looking to complete its
construction of the conceptually approved new gardens: the Alpine
Plaza -Phase 2, Children's Environmental Garden and
Schoolhouse Accessible Garden as soon as possible and complete
its projects on the lower bench of Ford Park. VAGF requests that
the Gore Creek Trail project be postponed indefinitely and that the
Council re-allocate the $100,000 to these three gardens so that we
can complete construction of the final phase of the Betty Ford
Alpine Gardens. For the three gardens, the balance of the
construction budget is currently $1,493,000. VAGF has raised
$773,000, leaving $720,000. This $100,000 transfer from RETT
would significantly decrease the funds necessary to be raised to
finish construction by June 1, 2002. VAGF has confidence to
believe the majority of remaining funding will be in hand by the end
of September 2001. VAGF does not intend to begin construction
until sufficient funds are raised. A letter of support from the Vail
Valley Foundation is attached.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff agrees with the priority discussion presented in Background
Rationale and recommends the transfer of funding from the Gore
Creek Trail project to a contribution towards the funding of the
Alpine Plaza -~ Phase 2, Schoolhouse Garden, and Children's
Garden. Staff makes the additional recommendation that a
stipulation be placed on the contribution to be used only far actual
construction costs of that project alone, and that construction for
the project begin no later than September 17, 2001, to coincide
with the town's replacement of the Nature Center Bridge.

BACKGROUND RATIONALE:

zoning code amendments, changes in procedures, or errors in
codification. Therefore, staff periodically returns to the Planning

up" the Zoning Regulations, Subdivision Regulations, Development
Standards and Sign Codes. These amendments are not designed
to amend the substantive content of the code, but to "clean-up"
errors and clarify sections of the code. None of the proposed
amendments result in a change of policy. The Planning and
Environmental Commission unanimously recommended approval
of the proposed text amendments at its August 27th, 2001,
meeting. The proposed amendments to the Town Code are
described in detail in the staff memorandum.

Summer 2002. (5 min.)
Pam Brandmeyer
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Fard Park Management Plan
was adopted by Council in April 1997. A component of that plan
calls fora "managed parking" initiative during the time the park has
multiple venues, e.g., the summer. A managed parking committee
consisting of all user groups -the Vail Recreation District, Bravo,
the Vai] Valley Foundation, the Vail Alpine Garden, and the town -
historically meets 3-6 times a year to iron out the details of when
paid parking should occur. This calendar is based on equity and
access to parking for al! venues, with an approach to limit paid
parking days to the least number possible. Consensus on all dates
for paid parking is a requirement of the process.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Although there may be additional
modifications to this calendar for the Summer of 2002, staff
recommends Council approve this calendar as subrnitted. User
groups have asked for this timely approval of the calendar in order
to include this schedule in upcoming mailings.
