Eagle County Commissioners

Eagle CO 81631
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of the Town of Vail and the Vail Town Council, I wanted to take this
opportunity to express our strong support for the inclusion of the Black Gore Creek
Sedimentation Project in the State Wide Transportation Plan.
The accumulation of 30 years of sand has created significant water quality problems on
Black Gore Creek. If uncorrected, this issue could have serious environmental
consequences and severe economic impacts. The current situation, if uncorrected,
threatens to impact the water storage capacity for drinking water. The Black Gore
Creek Reservoir provides storage for domestic water consumption for the entire upper
Vail Valley. Contamination of this important water source would have severe adverse
impacts on health, the quality of life, as well as property values. This situation also
threatens the gold metal status for Gore Creek. The revenue generated by fly fishing on
the upper Gore has been calculated to be a significant portion of summer revenues for
the Town of Vail.
In closing, we want to again reiterate our strong support for inclusion of this project into
the state 20 year plan and the State Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP). We are
available to meet with you and discuss this matter at your convenience. Thank you for
your help and support.
Sincerely,
TOWN OF VAIL

RE: Medeiros Investigation
Dear Mike:
A recent editorial in the Vail Daily prompted several questions about the Medeiros
investigation from the Vail Town Council. The Council has asked me to contact you to
obtain additional information on the status of this investigation.
I realize this is an extremely complex case involving many victims and numerous states.
However, we would very much appreciate an update as to the status of this
investigation. I also realize this is an ongoing investigation and not all the information
may be released at this time. However, I would very much appreciate a brief update on
the status of this investigation.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter. If you have questions or need additional
information, please do not hesitate to contact me at 479.2105.

RECNCUDPAPER
MEMORANDUM
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: July 10, 2001
FORUM: Town Council Worksession, Executive Session
SUBJECT: Determination of Town Council interest in purchasing or acquiring conservation
easements on Lots 8, 10, & 11, Bighorn Subdivision, Second Addition
SUMMARY
Lots 8, 10, & 11, Bighorn Subdivision, Second Addition are referred to as Parcel 40 in the Comprehensive
Open Lands Plan. Parcel 40 is identified as a high priority for acquisition because it could provide access
to a potential South Trail and is located in a geologically sensitive area.
The Community Development Department has received a proposal to consolidate Lots 11 & 12. Another
proposal has been received to resubdivide Lots 8, 9, & 10. Both of these proposals were reviewed by the
Planning and Environmental Commission on June 25, 2001. A final review of both minor subdivision
requests is scheduled for July 23, 2001. Prior to a final decision by the PEC, staff would like to determine
whether or not the Town Council has an interest in purchasing or acquiring conservation easements upon
any of the subject properties. The applicants' representative has informed staff that the owners of Lots 8,
9, & 10 may be amenable to the Town of Vail acquiring a conservation or environmental easement across
the red hazard avalanche areas on these lots. The option to purchase the lots in their entirety or in part
has not been discussed with the present owners. This may not be an option that the Town Council would
like to pursue only because the red hazard avalanche designation makes a large portion of the lots
unbuildable due to the Town's hazard regulations.
DESCRIPTION OF THE MINOR SUBDIVISION REQUESTS
The applicants, June Frazier and Jeff Dahl, represented by Steve Riden, have submitted an application to
the Town of Vail Community Development Department for a minor subdivision of Lots 8, 9, and 10,
Bighorn Subdivision, Second Addition. The request is for the reconfiguration of the property lines shared
by these three lots. Currently, Lot 8 is 0.87 Acres in size, Lot 9 is 0.34 Acres in size, and Lot 10 is 0.30
Acres in size. With a resubdivision of these lots, Lot 8 would be 0.825 Acres in size, Lot 9 would be 0.372
Acres in size, and Lot 10 would be 0.367 Acres in size. The total area under consideration is 1.56 Acres.
There are currently no development proposals for any of the lots. However, staff anticipates that these
would be forthcoming if the minor subdivision is approved.
The applicant, Gary Weiss, represented by Steve Riden, has submitted an application to the Town of Vail
Community Development Department for a minor subdivision of Lots 11 and 12, Bighorn Subdivision,
Second Addition. The request is for these two lots to be consolidated. Currently, Lot 11 is 2.23 Acres in
size and Lot 12 is 0.71 Acres in size. The total area under consideration is 2.94 Acres. The creation of a
single lot would be accomplished by vacating the existing property line between Lots 11 and 12. In
conjunction with the minor subdivision request, the applicant is proposing to construct an addition to the
existing single family residence located on Lot 12.

TOWN OF PAIL ~

BACKGROUND
The Bighorn Subdivision, Second Addition was platted on July 22, 1963. The Board of County
Commissioners of Eagle County approved the platting as the property was then under Eagle County
jurisdiction. Lots 8-12 have remained in the current configuration since being platted.
The Bighorn Subdivision, Second Addition was annexed into the Town of Vail pursuant to Ordinances 13
& 20, Series of 1974. The annexation became effective on November 5, 1974. Upon annexation into the
Town of Vail, Lots 8-12 were zoned Two Family Primary/Secondary Residential. At the time of
annexation, residential structures existed on Lots 9 & 12, and Lots 8, 10, & 11 were vacant.
In 1976, the Town of Vail contracted with Arthur I. Mears to complete a Geologically Sensitive Areas
Study. For purposes of the study, geologically sensitive areas were defined as snow avalanche, rock fall
and debris flow. In response to the findings of Mr. Mears' study, the Town of Vail adopted Geologic
Hazard Maps for snow avalanche, rock fall and debris flow as components of the Town of Vail
Comprehensive Plan. The maps were adopted by the Town in 1977.
In 1978, the Town of Vail adopted Hazard Regulations. The purpose of the regulations is to help protect
the inhabitants of the Town from dangers relating to development of flood plains, avalanche paths, steep
slopes, and geologically sensitive areas; to regulate the use of land areas which may be geologically
sensitive; and further to regulate development on steep slopes; to protect the economic and property
values of the Town, to protect the aesthetic and recreational values and natural resources of the Town,
which are sometimes associated with flood plains, avalanche areas and areas of geologic sensitivity and
slopes; to minimize damage to public facilities and utilities and minimize the need for relief in cleanup
operations; to give notice to the public of certain areas within the Town where flood plains, avalanche
paths and areas of geologic sensitivity exist; and to promote the general public health, safety and welfare.
In 1986, the Vail Town Council adopted the Town of Vail Land Use Plan. Like the Geologic Hazard
Maps, the Land Use Plan is a component of the Town of Vail Comprehensive Plan. According to the
Land Use Plan, Lots 8-12 are designated "low density residential". The purpose of the low-density
residential designation is to provide sites for single-family detached homes and two-family dwelling units.
Density of development with in this category would typically not exceed 3 structures per buildable acre.
Also within this area would be private recreation facilities such as tennis courts, swimming pools, and club .
houses for the use of residents of the area. Institutional/public uses permitted would include churches,
fire stations, and parks and open space related facilities.
In 1994, the Vail Town Council adopted the Comprehensive Open Lands Plan. The objectives of the plan
are:
¦ To identify citizen and visitor needs and preferences for a comprehensive system of open space uses
such as parks, recreation, protection of environmental resources, trails, and to reserve lands for
public use;
¦ To prioritize available open lands for acquisition or protection;
¦ To identify creative strategies to implement the acquisition and protection program;
¦ To define a management system to appropriately manage Town-owned open space lands, and;
¦ To buffer neighborhoods with open space.
The Comprehensive Open Lands Plan is an action-oriented plan that identifies specific parcels of land
that require some kind of action either for protection of sensitive lands, for trail easements, or for public
use. In developing the plan, over 350 parcels were evaluated with 51 parcels on which actions were
recommended. The recommendations were developed utilizing specific criteria to evaluate the areas of
highest priority. Generally, areas received the highest priority if they met the stated objectives of the
Town and its citizens and were an integral part of the open lands system. Within the 51 parcels, there are
five priority areas made up of a number of recommended actions. These priorities are:
2
¦ Protect sensitive natural habitat areas, riparian areas, and hazard areas;
• Extend the Vail Trail to East Vail and add several trailheads to access the trail;
• Add a new trail on the north side and western half of Town to connect existing trailheads and
neighborhoods;
¦ Add three "trailheads" in the core areas to access Vail Mountain trails and inform visitors of trail
opportunities and provide better access to Gore Creek;
¦ Add bike lanes to the north and south frontage roads and add paved shoulders to Vail Valley Drive.
To date, the Town of Vail has taken action on at least 41 of the 51 parcels identified for action in the Plan.
This most recently includes Lot 16 of Bighorn Subdivision, 2"d Addition.
The Action Plan and Priority Plan of the Comprehensive Open Lands Plan identifies Lots 8, 10, and 11,
Bighorn Subdivision, Second Addition as "Parcel 40" for implementation purposes. Parcel 40 is classified
as a "High Priority". The high priority classification is based upon the Town's desire to acquire both the
development rights and trail easements for the proposed South Trail extension. However, in September
of 1999, Town staff worked with a former U.S. Forest Service trail construction supervisor to determine
the feasibility of constructing the South Trail from the East Vail water tank to Mill Creek and the Vail ski
area. As a result of this study, the following problematic issues were determined:
1) Cliffbands and steep grades along the proposed route make access to the trail from most East Vail
neighborhoods difficult and/or dangerous. Access points along the trail would be limited to the East Vail
water tank and portions of the Vail Trail adjacent to Golden Peak.
2) The pending White River National Forest Management Plan revisions change management direction in
the area from "Backcountry Recreation, Non-Motorized" to "Forest Carnivore." Therefore, the U.S. Forest
Service may not permit the construction of a new recreation trail under this designation.
The plan also notes that Parcel 40 is located in a geologically sensitive area. Strategies for protecting
Parcel 40 include purchasing the development rights, and/or acquiring an access easement through the
parcel.
As a high priority classification, Parcel 40 meets both Level One and Level Two Evaluation criteria. Level
One Evaluation focuses on meeting community needs relating to the natural resource system, the
recreation system, trails system, and reserving lands for future civic/public uses. Level Two Evaluation
focuses on the availability of the parcel utilizing criteria such as the threat of development or irreversible
damage, opportunities to leverage other funds, cost, unusual opportunity with a motivated seller,
opportunity for trade with the USFS, low management requirements on the Town of Vail and low liability
to the Town.
The Town of Vail Zoning Code prescribes the land development regulations for development within the
Town. The following code sections are particularly relevant to the evaluation of the applicant's proposal:
¦ Chapter 6 - Two-Family Primary/Secondary Residential
¦ Chapter 21 - Hazard Regulations
The purpose statement of Chapter 6 (Article D. Two-Family Primary/Secondary Residential (PS) District)
states:
"The Two-Family Primary/Secondary Residential District is intended to provide sites for
single-family residential uses or two-family residential uses in which one unit is a larger
primary residence and the second unit is a smaller caretaker apartment, together with
such public facilities as may approperiately be located in the same district. The Two-
Family Primary/Secondary Residential District is intended to ensure adequate light, air,
3
privacy and open space for each dwelling, commensurate with single-family and two-
family occupancy, and to maintain the desirable residential qualities of such sites by
establishing appropriate site development standards. "
To date, there are no structures on Lots 8, 10, or 11. This is due to the prevalence of geologic hazards
on these lots including avalanche and rockfall (see Figures 6 & 7 attached).
Development has been proposed on Lot 11 in the past. However, due to the difficulties presented by
geological hazards and steep slopes, development has never occurred on the site. There are three
geologic hazard analysis reports in the legal file for Lot 11. Each report identifies geologic hazards on the
site including high severity rock fall, debris flow, and snow avalanche. There are varying opinions as to
whether Lot 11 is located in a moderate or high hazard avalanche area. However, in a recent study of
Lots 8, 10, & 12, Arthur Mears identifies an area of Red Hazard avalanche that clearly impacts Lot 11.
Figures 6 & 7 have been attached for reference. All three of the reports suggest possible and potential
hazard mitigation measures; earth-built structures, locational siting of the structure, boulder barriers, a
rear concrete foundation wall protruding at least six feet above finished grade and "splitting wedges".
However, no construction is permitted in a Red Hazard Avalanche area so these building techniques
would not be applicable.
According to the Hazard Regulations (Section 12-21-10):
A. No structure shall be built in any flood hazard zone or red avalanche hazard areas. No
structure shall be built on a slope of forty percent or greater except in Single-Family
Residential, Two-Family Residential, or Two-Family Primary/Secondary Residential Zone
Districts. The term "structure" as used in this Section does not include recreational structures
that are intended for seasonal use, not including residential use.
8. Structures may be built in blue avalanche hazard areas provided that proper mitigating
measures have been taken.
C. The Administrator may require any applicant or person desiring to build in an avalanche
hazard zone of influence to submit a definitive study of the hazard area in which the applicant
proposes to build if the Town's master hazard plan does not contain sufficient information to
determine if the proposed location is in a red hazard or blue hazard area. The requirement for
additional information and study shall be done in accordance with Chapter 12 of this Title.
D. The Administrator may require any applicant or person desiring to build in an identified blue
avalanche hazard zone to submit additional information or reports as to whether or not improvements
are required to mitigate against the possible hazard. If mitigation is required, said information and
report should specify the improvements proposed therefore. The required information and reports
shall be done in accordance with Chapter 12 of this Title.
