DRB/PEC Report. (5 min.) 2:55 P.M. Greg Hall Leslie Fickling ITEM/TOPIC: AIPP Budget Distribution - Art in Public Places Coordinator (10 min.) ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Provide for thirty hours per week of AIPP coordinator time within the existing budgets of the AIPP program. BACKGROUND RATIONALE: AIPP has embarked on an aggressive program this year and aims to include an art component in capital and maintenance projects. We continue to fund raise and encourage donations and loans of quality artworks to the town. In addition, the AIPP coordinator is the first point of contact for persons wishing to make donations to the town, art organizations asking for town funding and other towns requesting advice on setting up a Public Art Program. The AIPP coordinator serves as Vail's representative to Colorado Council for the Arts and Americans for the Arts - Public Art Network. This year the coordinator organized an exhibition of world class art in Ford Park. The exhibition attracted a visit from the Denver Art Museum's Friends of Sculpture. The coordinator has arranged for artist Claes Oldenburg to visit Vail in 2002. The AIPP Coordinator works with private developers encouraged by town review boards and commissions to provide public art in their developments. The coordinator is asked to sit on selection panels to choose consultants and contractors for town projects. The AIPP budget currently provides for twenty hours of coordinator time. The AIPP board does not believe that this is sufficient to accomplish our goals. The AIPP I coordinator is a contract position. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Reallocate AIPP budget to increase staffing from 20 hours to 30 hours/week. 3:00 P.M.

If people didn't realize the parking structure was free in the summer, this could have added to the problem.

It is likely that they will remain on the site in temporary trailers. There will likely be a preference to find a location for them off-site during the site work phase, but it is anticipated that they will be located on-site. The construction schedule that is currently being developed is attempting to minimize the impact to the schools during the entire construction process. All relocating of the schools will be coordinated with them and will provide them ample time to complete the move(s).

Winter schedule expense per day $ 8,150.00 Summer schedule expense per day S 3.575.00 Savings per day $ 4,575.00 Currently we delay the transition 27 days from November 20 to Dec 17. Current savings $123,525.00 Extending from December 17 to December-2 1. Additional savings $22,875.00 2. Transition winter to summer schedule April 1, 2002 rather than April 16, 2002. Bus ridership drops off dramatically after the third week in March. Total savings $73,200.00 3. During ski season, end all bus service at 12 midnight instead of 2 a.m. Reduces vandalism and protein spills in buses. Holiday service would be extended. Total Savings $71,500.00 4. End service for Golf Course, Lionsridge Loop and Ford Park. The cost per passenger on the Ford Park route is S 1.65 per passenger and Golf Course! Lionsridge Loop is $1.94 per passenger. This proposal would displace 93,876 rides per ski season. Ford Park passengers could either wait for East Vail bus or walk into town. The majority of Lionsridge Loop riders, who originate from the Timber Ridge. Simba Run/Vail Run area, could ride West Vail Green or Sandstone.

SEfFVIC E r To: Vail Town Council From: Parking Policy Committee Date: September 18, 2001 Subject: Recommendations for 2001-2002 Season The parking policy committee met over the last month and a half and have formalized the following recommendations to you to implement for the upcoming 2001-2002 Season. The goal is to shift demand and increase supply to the point that parking on the Frontage Road occurs 15-20 times this ski season. The recommendations are as follows: • Hourly rates will stay the same • Peak days will be expanded to include All Saturdays and Sundays and add All Fridays for the season • The actual Valet Service of parking cars at the Village Parking Structure will not be run this year, but a Premiere service of cash on entry once the lower spaces are filled will be operated for those late comers who are willing to pay a premium for the space. • The gold pass will be increased in price from $125041500. This provides the premium service of guaranteed access to the structures all the time. A limited number of 150 will be sold. • Blue passes will be only for Town of Vail residents, property owners or employees of town businesses. This pass allows unlimited available access to the VTRC on Non-peak days and unlimited access to Lionshead Parking Structure on all days. The price of a Blue pass will be increase from $525- $550. • Debit Cards will be allowed on the top 226 spaces during non-peak days of the VTRC for a pay on entry price. On peak days the number of available spaces will be reduced based on premium service demand but a minimum 100 spaces will be held and a peak pay on entry price will be charged. • Debit cards are valid at Lionshead all year at the non-peak pay on entry price. • Cost of Debit cards for a Town of Vail resident, property owner, or in-town employee for the pay on entry price will stay $5.00 non-peak and $ 10.00 peak. • Cost of Debit cards for county residents, employees or property owners with a pay on entry price will increase from $5.00- $6.00 non-peak and increase from $10.00-$12.00 peak. • VRI will pursue available private parking spaces. The goal is free up 100 spaces. • ECO will look at securing use of the Edwards rest area for an Edwards park-n-ride. ECO will have significant expanded service into to Vail. • The use of the hospital lot, the sewer plant lot and the Chateau at Vail and the Mountain School Lot equates to over 500 spaces available on Saturday and Sunday and 250 spaces on Fridays. VRI will pursue the use of the Chateau lot. • In addition the use of park, trail head and Red Sandstone School lot equals another 150 spaces. • If the Chateau is not available for the season, we will look at allowing on Peak Days the availability of parking cars outlying in West Vail and shuttle in people. We have determined there may be up to 450 spaces available. The time of the parking could be 6:30 AM - 9:00 PM. • We will experiment with up to 5 merchants of providing a voucher system where they are able to pay for their patrons parking. There will not be any discounting of parking though, just a method of where we are able to bill them for parking they have validated for their customers. • The Town of Vail has budgeted for five parking hosts to work the parking structures during peak times in assisting with parking, management when the structures fill, frontage road parking, traffic control and exiting assistance and providing guest information and guest services. • Once the programs are set, an intensive education campaign will need to be undertaken.

I To: Vail Town Council From: Parking Policy Committee Date: September 18, 2001 Subject: Recommendations for 2001-2002 Season The parking policy committee has met over the last month and a half and forwards the following recommendations to you to consider for implementation for the upcoming 2001-2002 Season. The goal is to shift demand and increase supply to the point that parking on the Frontage Road occurs 15-20 times this ski season. The recommendations are as follows: • Hourly rates will stay the same • Peak days will be expanded to include All Saturdays and Sundays and add all Fridays for the season • The actual Valet Service of parking cars at the Village Parking Structure will not be run this year, but a Premiere service of cash on entry once the lower spaces are filled will be operated for those late comers who are willing to pay a premium for the space. • The gold pass will be increased in price from $125041500. This provides the Y.,. ...Win service of guaranteed access to the structures all the time. A limited number of 150 will be sold. • Blue passes will be only for Town of Vail residents, property owners or employees of town businesses. This pass allows unlimited available access to the VTRC on Non-peak days and unlimited access to Lionshead Parking Structure on all days. The price of a Blue pass will be increase from $525- $550. • Debit Cards will be allowed on the top 226 spaces during non-peak days of the VTRC for a pay on entry price. On peak days the number of available spaces will be reduced based on premium service demand but a minimum 100 spaces will be held and a peak pay on entry price will be charged. • Debit cards are valid at Lionshead all year at the non-peak pay on entry price. • Cost of Debit cards for a Town of Vail resident, property owner, or in-town employee for the pay on entry price will stay $5.00 non-peak and $ 10.00 peak. • Cost of Debit cards for county residents, employees or property owners with a pay on entry price will increase from $5.00- $6.00 non-peak and increase from $10.00-$12.00 peak. • VRI will pursue available private parking spaces. The goal is free up 100 spaces. • ECO will look at securing use of the Edwards rest area for an Edwards park-n-ride. ECO will have significant expanded service into to Vail. • The use of the hospital lot, the sewer plant lot and the Chateau at Vail and the Mountain School Lot equates to over 500 spaces available on Saturday and Sunday and 250 spaces on Fridays. VRI will pursue the use of the Chateau lot. • In addition the use of park, trail head and Red Sandstone School lot equals another 150 spaces. • If the Chateau is not available for the season, we will look at allowing on Peak Days the availability of parking cars outlying in West Vail and shuttle in people. We have determined there may be up to 450 spaces available. The time of the parking could be 6:30 AM - 9:00 PM. • We will experiment with up to 5 merchants of providing a voucher system where they are able to pay for their patrons parking. There will not be any discounting of parking though, just a method of where we are able to bill them for parking they have validated for their customers. • The Town of Vail has budgeted for five parking hosts to work the parking structures during peak times in assisting with parking, management when the structures fill, frontage road parking, traffic control and exiting assistance and providing guest information and guest services. • Once the programs are set, an intensive education campaign will need to be undertaken. The main focus of the operational team will be to establish clear messages of where to park and providing real time information as conditions change. MEMORANDUM TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Bob McLaurin Town Manager DATE: September 21, 2001 RE: FY2002 BUDGET Attached to this memo is the recently revised 2002 Budget. We have incorporated the changes suggested by the Council. Specifically, we have reduced the sales tax and lift tax revenue forecast to the original 2001 Budget. These revisions in revenue increased the deficit in the General Fund. We have also deferred the street projects identified by the Council in the Capital Projects Budget. Please note that the fire station and Donovan Park Pavilion remain unchanged in this version of the budget. In terms of the General Fund Expenditure Budget, we have added $200,000 to the first phase of the Vail Standards Program. Contributions remain at $1.8 million. We have also adjusted the General Fund balance down by $350,000 for the working capital loan to the Vail Local Marketing District. As indicated in the enclosed documents, implementation of these changes requires an increase in the transfer from the Capital Projects Fund to $1.6 million from $731,422. As noted on the Capital Projects Summary, this amount could be done in Fiscal Year 2002. Shifting projects to future years in the Capital Projects Fund leaves a fund balance of $1.2 million and reduces the split of sales tax to the Capital Projects Fund to 33% in 2002. You should be aware, that while I am comfortable budgeting at these numbers, I think we need to be prepared to deal with a lower revenue forecast than is currently projected. Therefore, it would be my recommendation that none of the increased funding for new programs, including Vail Today, marketing funding and the Vail Chamber, be expended until such time as we have a better understanding as to the impacts of the events of September 19th on our economy, which forthcoming information could be as late as February 1, 2002. The only exception would be to implement the Host Program. This is because we have made arrangements and have already hired these positions in Australia. Furthermore, these are seasonal positions and could be terminated at the end of one year. I look forward to our continuing discussions on Tuesday.

(,~S and Town Council Members b` Town of,Vail 75-S.-Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Re: Rationale for annual RETT fundine request Dear Mayor Kurz and Town Council Members: This letter will support VAGF's annual RETT funding request. For the past 16+ years, VAGF has been building Betty Ford Alpine Gardens into the world's premier high altitude botanic garden. With our final additions scheduled for completion by next summer, we truly believe we will have achieved this goal. In addition to the development of the physical gardens, we provide extensive skilled personnel (volunteer and paid) for programs that further enhance the visitor experience and provide a world class tourist amenity. This year, we provided free of admission charge to over 100,000 visitors: Over 25 Docent led private tours to 1,000 people primarily from the front range. Our docents, all volunteers, are highly trained. After their tours, the majority of these tour groups spend the afternoon dining and shopping in Vail Village and Lionshead; • 36 regularly scheduled Docent led tours (10:30 a.m., each Monday, Thursday and Friday through out the summer). The Visitor Centers and all of the Valley's concierges regularly recommend these tours as a popular visitor experience; • The Schoolhouse Museum and Gift Shop tripled its gross business this year to $33,000. This amenity is also staffed entirely by volunteers. Cash and in-kind donations of over $2,000 was raised to clean, paint, and re-decorate the Museum and Gift Shop; • A resumption of the annual garden judging contest, Great Gardens of the Vail Valley, which is a major motivator for community beautification; • All told, this year our volunteers and Board members donated over 5,000 hours of their time in promoting this public garden; • Since inception, our volunteers have donated over 70,000 hours and our donors have given over $3 million, the majority of which are individuals; • The Gardens and Vail received international exposure during the national botanic garden conle..,..ce in Denver this July. Pre- and post-conference.2 day tours of the Gardens, based at Manor Vail Lodge attracted garden directors and horticulturalists from- Finland, Australia, Canada, and Russia as well as from across the United States. Nicola Ripley, our Director of Horticulture, and I led a panel discussion at the conference, which was the 2nd most attended session. Betty Ford Alpine Gardens. and "Our flowers in the sionmer are as giorious as our snow in the uvinter. " 183 GORE CREEK DRIVE VAIL, COLORADO 81657 • 970.476.0103 • FAX 970.476.1685 Vail Alpine Garden Foundation are becoming the world's leading "spokes garden" about mountain flora and environments. In addition, our small but highly productive staff oversees the development of other educational programs. When we complete the gardens, all of our efforts will be directed toward communicating the importance of mountain ecosystems in our lives. In particular, this will be implemented through new children s educational and horticultural therapy programs. Our web site will be significantly upgraded this year; already we are getting double the number of "hits" as last year. We expect that trend to continue as we link to other garden web sites around the world. Next spring the Gardens will be featured in Sunset magazine. We will also be implementing a state-wide marketing plan. In 2000, the $38,500 from RET'l represented 16.1% of our operating budget. This request of $56,460 represents $18.9% of our next year's operating budget of $297,623. It is important to note that the vast majority of municipalities significantly or completely fund their public botanic garden's operating budget. For example, Denver Botanic Garden (DBG), anon profit corporation, receives $5.2 million or 49% of its $10.6 million operating budget from the City and County of Denver's general fund and its Scientific and Cultural Facilities District tax (see attachment). In addition, Denver is supporting DBG's $40 million bond initiative on this year's upcoming ballot. DBG also charges a gate fee. VAGF is fast approaching permanent financial stability. Since 10/1/99, I have raised $725,000 in operating funds and $1.6 million in new capital funds. I am currently implementing a formula to ensure the operating security of VAGF and the Gardens. Our memberships are up $15,000 to $53,250 or 40% over last year and with my continued' marketing expertise should grow another. 25% next year. Our endowment also continues to grow rapidly. This year it grew $28% or $57,000 to $262,700. We have several confirmed major donors who will contribute to endowment when our current capital campaign is completed. I am working toward and anticipate our endowment to exceed $1,000,000 by the'end of 2002. I hope this letter elucidates the economic and cultural benefits that VAGF and Betty Ford. Alpine Gardens bring to the Town of Vail in support of your mission to be a world class resort. I also hope it answers many of your questions and concerns and that you favorably support our request for $56,460 from xt 1-t for 2002 operations. I would be happy to personally appear before the Council to answer any additional` questions. I thank you for all of your past and present support.

Vail, Colorado 81657 Dear Mayor Kurz, As you know, I serve as Co-chairperson for the Town of Vail's Art in Public Places Board (AIPP). I am writing you to explain the Board's request to extend Leslie Fickling's contract from 20 hours to 30 hours for the next fiscal year and beyond. In the short time that Leslie has served as the AIPP coordinator, she has done an exemplary job, facilitating the various activities in an efficacious manner. You will note from the attached list of activities that Leslie and the Board-have been quite active this year. Leslie has successfully strengthened the Boards relationship with the various Town of Vail departments, which has resulted in the identification of numerous public art opportunities. She has assisted the Board in establishing meaningful priorities for the Town's public art program, both short and long term. Through her efforts and those of my fellow board members, the AIPP strategic plan was successfully completed this summer and will be presented to the Town Council for final adoption in October. Clearly, Leslie has given this job 110% effort often working in excess of her current compensated hours to complete numerous tasks. The Board, with the assistance of Leslie, has set an ambitious agenda for this coming year. Opportunities and activities planned include: • Formalizing an educational partnership with the Eagle County School District; • Researching and writing a permanent funding ordinance for the public art program; • Finalizing 501(c)3 status, which gives the Board the ability to pursue outside funding opportunities, including grants and fundraising events; • Facilitating implementation of several projects with the Public Works department; • Supervising the art components of the Meadow Drive streetscape and Donovan Park projects; • Planning for the 2002 Summer art exhibition for Ford Park; • Organizing and supervising the Board's advisory committee; and • Working with the Community Development department to establish a voluntary/incentive- based program to encourage private developers to incorporate public art into real estate development projects.

Over the last year she has proved to be exactly what we had hoped to hire - a gracious, capable and productive representative of the Town of Vail Art in Public Places Program. As you know, Leslie's duties include, but are not limited to, administering the AIPP Board and its programs; implementing a variety of projects; organizing events; attending staff, board, council and community meetings; publicizing the art program; communicating with the public and other art entities; overseeing maintenance of the collection; and seeking funds through grant writing. In addition the Coordinator acts as the Town's liaison to all persons interested in the Vail's Art in Public Places Program. These tasks require a great deal of administration, organization, coordination, and communication. Because the art program has grown, the AIPP Coordinator's responsibilities have expanded and can no longer be accomplished in the 20 hours per week originally allocated to the position. In order to complete the projects currently in progress and to actively pursue the site integrated art concept for the Town, the Board feels that 30 hours per week should be allocated to the Coordinator's contract for the year 2002. The AIPP Board looks forward to making continued positive contributions toward the inclusion of public art within the Town of Vail with the much appreciated assistance of Leslie.

Nov Dec. 2000, 2001- I 'k V,5 q.,,)6-61 WuL : UIL, eL Q*"41_W To: Vail Town Council From: Greg Hall, Director of Public Works Subject: Vail Standards Recommendations Date: September 24, 2001 As you requested, the Public Works Department has priced and prioritized the remaining Vail Standards. Keep in mind, our first priority is to ensure adequate funding is in place to maintain the workforce and commitments of our existing programs. This includes competitive compensation for critical skill positions, such as mechanics to ensure we are staffed to maintain our equipment. Continuing to fund preventive maintenance of facilities and infrastructure must remain a high priority. It is our recommendation to avoid cuts which in the end costs more to maintain and diminishes the overall life of our facilities. Based on the above comments, the remaining priorities are as follows: Tier One-Continue to emphasize what we are currently doing: l) Terminal and restroom cleaning of VTRC, LHTRC (contract services) $100,000/yr 2) VTRC and LHTRC Stairs, 1 Maintenance Worker (MW) S 40,000/yr 3) Daily Porter Service of Village and Lionshead, 3 MW $ 60.000/vr Total $200,000/yr Tier Two-Expand on areas where immediate resuits will be seen for the increased cost: 4) One additional bus washer in winter $ 18,000/yr 5) Replace flags one more time per year (currently twice/yr.) $ 5,000/yr 6) Evening ice patrol of pedestrian areas -1 MW $ 15,000/yr 7) Enhanced restroom cleaning within the library $ 60,000/yr 8) Enhanced restroom cleaning of the park restroorns $ 67,000/yr 9) Increased structure wash down and striping $ 15,0001yr 10) Enhanced pedestrian village wash downs $ 5.000/vr Total S 180,000/yr Tier Three- Additional resources can make a difference but the costs are higher for results: 11) Enhanced weed control $ 40,000/yr 12) Roadside mowing $ 10,000/yr 13) One carpenter assistant in charge of structure and furniture appearance $ 20,000/yr 14) Seasonal painter to provide touch up painting $ 15.000/vr Total $ 85,000/yr Tier Four- Areas where additional resources will make a difference but other resources may be available to obtain the desired results. Costs are if TOV performed all the work: 15) Enhanced sweeping $ 110,000/yr 16) Enhanced walking of I-70 $ 40,000/yr 17) Enhanced walking of frontage roads $ 15,000/yr 18) Enhanced waking of recreation paths $ 15,000/yr 19) Enhanced walking of neighborhood roads $ 15,000/yr 20) Enhanced walking of the parking structure $ 75.000/vr Total $ 270,000/yr Tier Five- Areas where capital dollars may make improvements to the overall appearance: 21) Banners and Themed decorating 22) Stricter and more consistent uniform policy 23) Additional public restroom near International Bridge In addition, if the majority of the activities are undertaken, an additional mechanic will needed to address increased vehicle utilization and maintenance $ 60,000/yr /it WS q-j6-01 SUGGESTED TRANSIT POLICY OBJECTIVES • Cost Reduction • Maintain Desirability as Alternative to Driving • Take Load Off Structures on Peak Days • Yield Manage (Match Schedule to Demand) • Safety - Public - Driver - Equipment
