MEMORANDUM TO: .Vail Town Council FROM: Department of Community Development DATE: February 19, 2002 SUBJECT: I-70 Informational Sign Proposal DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST Rick Scalpello, working in cooperation with a number of the West Vail merchants, is requesting a discussion with the Vail Town Council regarding the placement of informational types of signs on I-70. The signs that are being proposed are the blue informational signs often seen along interstate highways informing motorists of "gas, food & lodging" and other "attraction" opportunities located at upcoming interstate exits. The proposed signs would be located in the vicinity of the West Vail exit. Only those businesses located within the limits established for these types of signs would be participating. BACKGROUND In 1995, the. Vail Town Council heard a similar request. Upon discussion of the proposal and consideration of the existing town codes, the Council denied the request. At that time, the Council identified two areas of particular concern. The first was the negative aesthetic impacts "billboard" types of signs have on the community, and second, was the Vail Town Code sign regulations strictly prohibit off-premises advertising signs or any other sign not pertinent and clearly incidental to the permitted use on the property where located (Title 11, Section 11-5-2 L). In 1999, as part of the Town of Vail Wayfinding Sign Program, the Wayfinding Committee considered these signs for inclusion into the program. Upon deliberation and discussion, the Committee. determined that these types of sign were in direct conflict with the premier, international world-class image we are trying to convey and should not be install. The committee did, however, recognize the need to disseminate informational messages and recommended that, due to our international resort presence, informational signs, if installed, should use internationally recognized symbols (i.e., a gas pump; a plate, knife and fork; and bed and pillow). At the request of the Town of Vail, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has installed informational signs at the Main Vail exit. The signs that were installed are a combination of international symbols and words (i.e., gas, food & lodging). STAFF RECOMMENDATION Town Staff- recommends denial of the proposed request. The recommendation for denial is based upon our review of the Town Code and previous discussions on this matter. Further, Staff believes that this proposal violates the sign regulations, has negative impacts on the aesthetic quality. of the community, conflicts with our vision of being the premier, international world-class resort, is unimaginative in its implementation, and furthers the proliferation of signs within the community. 1 ~.

Logos (601)853-7107 p.3 INTERSTATE LOGOS, LLC HISTORY In June of 1988, interstate Logos was formed for the express purpose of providing Logo Signing Programs to states. Everett Stewart assumed the responsibility for development of this new Company which now oversees the operation of twenty-one (21) logo sign companies, eight (8) Tourist Oriented Directional Signing Programs, as well as a silk screening operation in Baton Rouge, and a sign construction company in Georgia. One of the first steps in the development of Interstate Logos, L.L.C. was to research existing state logo programs and then to assemble the highest caliber staff possible including engineering expertise with specific experience in logo signing programs. interstate Logos, L.L.C. was successful in locating three (3) highly qualified individuals, recently retired from engineering positions with state highway departments, each of whom had been instrumental in both the development and implementation phases of their respective state-run logo signing programs. These gentlemen provided technical expertise in logo signing to the already extensive knowledge in signing and marketing that existed within other employees of the Company. LOGOS Prior to the formation of Interstate Logos, privatized logo signing programs had already been instituted in four (4) states, Arizona, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Minnesota. Since that time, Interstate Logos has submitted proposals for providing a logo signing program in each of the twenty-three (23) states and the Province of Ontario that have made the decision to either implement a private contract logo program or go through a new solicitation of proposals. Of these twenty-three submissions, Interstate Logos has been successful in obtaining the contracts through a selection process with eighteen (18) of the submissions -Nebraska-January 26,1989, Oklahoma-April 17,1989, Utah-June 6, 1990, Missouri-February 6, 1991, Ohio-January 10, 1992, Texas-April 13, 1993, Mississippi- September 21,1993, Georgia-April 28,1995, Minnesota-May 8, 1995, South Carolina-August 1, 1995,Virginia-October 1, 1995, Michigan-May 14, 1996, New Jersey-May 21, 1996, Florida- December 11,1996, Province ofOntario-Logos, September Q,1998, Colorado-April 20, 1999, New Mexico-July 21,1999, Delaware-August,1999, and most recently Maine-January, 200! . In addition to these eighteen (18) contracts, Interstate Logos acquired the assets of TravelSigns, Inc. on July 17,1996, and assumed the operation of the Kansas program. Interstate Logos has also acquired the assets of Logo Signs of America-Wisconsin who was handling the programs for the states of Kentucky and Nevada. The twenty-one (21) contracts require that Interstate Logos, through its subsidiaries, market, construct, administer, and maintain the logo signing program for each state for contract periods that vary in length from four (4) to twenty (20) years. Interstate Logos is proud of the ongoing success of its logo signing programs which is substantiated by the on time or eazly completion of sign construction in each of the contract logo projects, and the high level of business participation in the programs. To date Interstate Logos through its logo companies, was responsible for the construction and erection of more than 27,000 background panels and installation of over 89,000 business logos. Interstate Logos is the largest loco program provider in the country Since January of 1989, Interstate Logos has been responsible for the erection of approximately $80 million of logo signing structures in the United States and approximately $15 million logo/TODS structures in the Province of Ontario. Feb 13 02 04:54p Miss. Logos (601)853-7107 p.4 The overlapping of programs is made possible due to the decentralized nature of our logo operations where each operation is staffed with an experienced local General Manager, a local sales and office staff. One or more local signing sub-contractors are utilized in over 85% of the states. The management staff of Interstate Logos is then free to travel extensively to the various operations to serve in a technical and management advisory capacity as well as monitor regulatory and contract compliance. Throughout its contract periods, Interstate Logos is pleased to have maintained excellent relations with both customers and the highway agencies in each of the contracted states. TODS In December, 1995, Interstate Logos, through its subsidiary Ohio Logos, Inc. was awarded the contract to operate its first Tourist Oriented Directional Signing (TODS) program for the State of Ohio. On November 30th, 1996, a contract was signed between Interstate Logos and the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism of Ontario, Canada for Interstate Logos through its subsidiary, Canadian TODS Limited, to operate the Tourist Oriented Directional Sign Program for the Province of Ontario. In December, 1996, Interstate Logos was notified by the Nebraska Department of Roads that Nebraska Logos, Inc., a subsidiary of Interstate Logos, was chosen to operate the Tourist Oriented Directional Signing program in the State of Nebraska. Upon the acquisition of the logo sign program for the State of Kentucky in July, 1996, Interstate Logos also acquired the contract to administer the TODS program for the State. In September, 1997, Michigan Logos, Inc. contracted with the Michigan Department of Transportation to market, construct, administer, and maintain the Michigan TODS program. The Colorado Department of Transportation included the TODS program in the contract award of its logo program to Interstate Logos's subsidiary in April of 1999. The Department of Transportation for the State of New Jersey awarded a TODS contract to New Jersey Logos, Inc. on 7/1/1999. Our most recent contract for a TODS program was signed with the Missouri Department of Transportation in May of 2000. Interstate I..ogos, through its subsidiaries, now oversees 8 TODS programs.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this discussion with the Town Council is to review the Lionshead Master Plan now that Vail Resorts has announced their plans to move forward with redevelopment. Staff will provide a presentation on February 19th that is intended to review the high points of the Lionshead Master Plan and the Lionshead Mixed Use District. The Vail Resorts proposal will not be specifically reviewed at this meeting. Attached is a memo from August 7, 2001 that reviews the public improvements that the Town Council will need to consider in the near future. If Council members do not have a copy of the Lionshead Master Plan, please contact me and I would be happy to deliver a copy to you (479-2146). 2. QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER IN THE FUTURE The following are questions the Town Council will need to consider in the future after Vail Resorts presents their full plan to the Council. Critical questions the Town Council will need to consider include: • What public improvements should be developed? • How should the public improvements be financed? • Does the Town Council want to consider development of a conference facility on the North Day Lot? Any effort to create a publicly supported conference center on the North Day Lot is a significant investment in time and resources. • Can an alternative plan be developed to accommodate loading and delivery and skier drop-off needs if the North Day Lot is used for an alternative use? A potential alternative to a transportation center on the North Day Lot is increasing capacity for loading 'and delivery underneath a new hotel at the Gondola site. • How does the Town want to deal with the sale of land to private developers when they propose constructing to the build-to line (as opposed to the setback line) as the Lionshead Master Plan proposes? 3. NEXT STEPS The following next steps need to occur in the next four to five weeks. 1. TOV and Vail Resorts staffs need to meet to review the specific loading and delivery, circulation, and phasing issues that need to be resolved. We are trying to facilitate this meeting in the next four to five days. 2. The Town Council needs to meet with Vail Resorts to review their proposal 3. Staff in cooperation with Vail Resorts would like to develop a draft cost sharing proposal for the Vail Town Council to consider. A council member or two may want to participate in these discussions. Staff will develop recommendations for public improvements and the time frame for their implementation. 4. A follow-up meeting(s) will be needed between Vail Resorts and the Town Council to develop a cost sharing agreement so that the Town has a clear understanding of what the private sector is paying for and what public funding is needed. 5. While discussions are moving forward on Lionshead, it is recommended that the parking committee reconvene and develop a recommendation for a long term parking solution. It will be critical to know whether additional parking should be developed at the proposed employee parking structure, at the Holy Cross site, on the Frontage Rd., and/or the Lionshead parking structure. To: Vail Town Council From: Staff: Russ Forrest Date: August 7th, 2001 Subject Discussion on Lionshead Public Improvements 1. PURPOSE: The purpose of this worksession is to review the public projects proposed in the 1999 Lionshead Master Plan. The Lionshead Master Plan area extends from Dobson Ice Rink to the Old Town Shops (See attachment A). Staff would like to review the proposed public projects and the timing of those projects in relationship to anticipated private development. Financing sources are reviewed at the end of this memo but staff would recommend discussing the financing at a follow-up meeting after Council has evaluated and provided input on public projects. Specifically staff would like to request that Council: Review the problem statement and objectives. Concurrence with these objectives is critical to moving forward in discussing public and private improvements in Lionshead. It should be noted that there was and still appears to be broad support for the implementation of the Lionshead Master Plan. Provide staff with input on the critical public projects to implement. Staff has provided a score sheet to rank the various projects on a scale of 1 - 5 with five being the highest priority during or after the worksession. Staff would then synthesize that input and summarize the high priority actions and review the specifics of financing options at the next available worksession. 2. LIONSHEAD MASTER PLAN PROBLEM STATEMENT AND OBJECTIVES 2.1. Lionshead Redevelopment Problem/Opaortunity Statement: Lionshead lacks the charm, character, appeal and vibrancy expected of a world-class resort. It lacks a sense of arrival and sense of place. Pedestrian flow through the mall can be confusing and disconnected. The architecture lacks a unique identity or reference to Vail's historical antecedents or its alpine environment. Many of the buildings are physically aging and functionally under- utilized, resulting in negative impacts to property values, private profits, and public revenues. Potential hospitality, retail and recreational uses, and community amenities are unmet or unrealized. It would be short-sighted to ignore these conditions and do nothing. The opportunity exists for the public and private sectors to act collaboratively to renew and revitalize this important component of our community. 2.2 Lionshead Redevelopment Policy Objectives: Objective 1. RENEWAL AND REDEVELOPMENT Lionshead can and should be renewed and redeveloped to become a warmer, more vibrant environment for guests and residents. Lionshead needs an appealing and coherent identity, a sense of place, a personality, a purpose, and an improved aesthetic character. Objective 2. VITALITY AND AMENITIES We must seize the opportunity to enhance guest experience and community interaction through expanded and additional activities and amenities such as performing arts venues, conference facilities, ice. rinks, streetscape, parks and other recreational improvements. Objective 3. STRONGER ECONOMIC BASE THROUGH INCREASED "LIVE BEDS" In order to enhance the vitality and viability of Vail, renewal and redevelopment in Lionshead must promote improved occupancy rates (i.e., "live beds" or "warm pillows") and the creation of additional bed base through new lodging product. Objective 4. IMPROVED ACCESS AND CIRCULATION The flow of pedestrian, vehicular, bicycle and mass transit traffic must be improved within and through Lionshead. Objective 5. IMPROVED INFRASTRUCTURE The infrastructure of Lionshead, including streets, walkways, transportation systems, parking, utilities, loading and delivery systems, snow removal and storage, and other public and private services must be upgraded to meet the capacities and service standards required to support redevelopment and revitalization efforts and to meet the expectations of our guests and residents. Objective 6. CREATIVE FINANCING FOR ENHANCED PRIVATE PROFITS AND PUBLIC REVENUES Redevelopment in Lionshead must be undertaken in a financially creative, but feasible, manner so that adequate capital .may be raised from all possible sources to fund desired private and public improvements. 2 3. LIONSHEAD PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS Attached is Chapter Nine from the Lionshead Master Plan which reviews the complete list of projects (See Attachment B). The following is a list of high priority projects described in the Master Plan. In 2000, the Town adopted new zoning for the Lionshead Area which provides incentives for private developers to implement the plan on private property. The following is a description of the public improvements that were approved in the Master Plan that are intended to be built as private redevelopment occurs. Many private property owners have engaged designers to evaluate opportunities-but significant redevelopment most likely will not occur until the core site or Gondola building is redeveloped. The Town will need to be prepared to move forward with public improvements at the time the Gondola building moves forward with applying for building permits. 3.1 North Dav Lot/Transit Center Issue/Challenge: There are four modes of traffic currently at the east Lionshead Circle entrance: pedestrian, skier drop-off, loading and delivery, and hotel shuttle van drop-off. This creates an unsafe situation and an unattractive guest entrance to the Lionshead retail area. Pedestrians currently have to negotiate through through delivery trucks and cars to cross from the parking structure to the Lionshead retail area. Solution/Timing: The Master Plan recommends relocating the loading and delivery uses and the skier drop off (cars and vans) to the North Day Lot. This was a critical action in the Lionshead Master Plan that is to occur with the development of the Gondola building. The development of this transit center would also trigger acceleration and deceleration lanes on the Frontage Rd. The North Day lot is owned by Vail Resorts. The cost for this improvement is estimated at $15 million without land cost. One of the other primary reasons for creating a transit center on the north day lot is to create a major new point of entry into the~pedestrian/retail core. k ~, ., - ~ iai~ ~ ~ .,~,~ .i ,~~ ~ L~'+ ~. i.r ~ J ~yrv~ IOkTti IIAY l0T ~~y,~j~ ; RAh$IT CCNTf R ~•~ L-twOR7tf h1Ail F'~DE$TRtktd ~'DRTI.L North Day Lot/Transit Center 3 3.2 East Lionshead Pedestrian Portal: Issue/Challenge: By moving loading and delivery and skier drop off to the north day lot, a safer more attractive pedestrian crossing can be made across East Lionshead Circle. Solution/Timing: Implement the Lionshead streetscape plan for the East Lionshead pedestrian portal. This needs to be done both in conjunction with redevelopment at Vai121 and with the Gondola site. In addition aback-up or supporting loading and delivery facility is possible on the west end of the Lionshead Parking Structure. If the development of a new transit facility on the north day lot is not possible in the required timeframe, then a relatively inexpensive loading and delivery facility on the west end of the parking structure would be possible. A trade-off to consider with this location for loading and delivery is that the Vail Center contemplated putting the skatepark on the west end of the parking structure. Total cost for the portal is approximately $3 million (this does not include a loading and delivery area on the west end of the parking structure). ~ --, f. le% ~ { 3 k f ,~ : ~,.., L.. . ~~. f .~: F ; "'T. ~~ i r ~4~ f •. r.~Q _ a # ~~ i East Lionshead Circle SE corner of parking structure 3.3 East Lionshead Circle Issue/Challenge: The Lionshead Master Plan identifies the need to improve the streetscape along East Lionshead Circle and to connect to the West Meadow Drive streetscape program to facilitate a smooth and pleasant pedestrian connection between the two villages. Solution: The estimated cost for improved streetscape and landscape between the East Lionshead Portal and Dobson was approximately $1 million. The Plan also proposed a retail frontage along the south side of the Lionshead Parking 4 Structure. It was contemplated that this land could be provide to a developer that would create 1S` floor retail development. This area has also been identified for use by the Vail Center for youth recreational programs. w .~_ i L ~.d ~ - J ,.. ~ ~. -. . t .. _--- re_ ~~~ .~ __ ,~ ..~ East Lionshead Circle-south of the Lionshead Parking Structure 3.4 Frontaae Rd Improvements Issue/Challenge: The Lionshead Master Plan transportation analysis assumed that with complete build out of Lionshead there could be 589 additional dwelling units and 93,000 net square feet of commercial uses. This could generate an additional 160 trips into Lionshead during AM hours and 340 trips during PM hours. Solution/Timing:Rdditional trips are mitigated by the transportation facility on the North Day lot and acceleration and deceleration lanes on the Frontage Road. In addition, the Plan calls for landscaping along the Frontage road and landscaped medians. Since the plan was adopted, the Town has discussed parallel parking that would need to be designed. Total cost is $15 million. Payment for the Frontage Road was assumed to come from the Town, private development, and the Colorado Department of Transportation. The Marriott and the antlers have committed to the cost of Frontage Rd. improvements based on their estimated trip generation. The total cost to the Town could be as low as $5 million if CDOT and private development provided 66% of the funds to pay for the improvements. ~~{..~~ }.~ 1 ~ t 4)f ~'. .rte '!)C~...~ tt 1{ •.VJ" ~ i~, ~, r v . \~Y \ h' Y~f ~ ~ .'1ri%.. ~' '7sWr" Tfi1~N SR f.. . , ~ .... -a.°"" '•~-~ ~ f~..k:.-t1rJL~. ;;Oti tN M1.A~_~ .~.~` r+~++vf-*~,;~y./+a..'uC"'~i.'' ~ ` ~ ._ ~;r/~.,j~.t.:~r"tz'-~' i'f_Jt_5T fi'.4'f f'OF:.Tt;~ Frontage Rd Lionshead Parking Structure to West Lionshead Circle 3.5 Pedestrian Mall streetscape Improvements Issue: The first objective of the Lionshead Master Plan states °°Lionshead can and should be renewed and redeveloped to become a warmer, more vibrant environment for guests and residents. Lionshead needs an appealing and coherent identity, a sense of place, a personality, a purpose, and an improved aesthetic character." Improving the streetscape and having property owners construct to the build to line will create an exciting retail environment, which will be critical to the success of Lionshead Redevelopment. Solution: The plan calls for the development of 91,000 square feet of new streetscape and landscape. The estimated cost for this improvement includes the cost of heated pavers. However, further discussions are needed to determine if from an environmental standpoint the area should be entirely heated. This work should be done in conjunction with adjacent redevelopment.

Two sites were identified for additional parking First the Plan suggests an additional deck on the Lionshead Parking Structure. This has a cost of $1.4.5 million. Second, the plan recommends was creating additional public parking in West Lionshead in conjunction with Vail Resorts development of either the West Day lot or the Holy Cross Site. Additional discussions are occurring with the parking task force on a short term and long term set of solutions for addressing parking demand. 3.8 Gore Creek Improvements/Passive Recreation Area There was interest in the plan for creating recreational opportunities within the streetscape plan and enhancing Gore Creek. One specific idea was to improve the wetland area across Gore Creek from the Born Free Lift. This area has been improved since the completion of the plan by closing. social trails, weed abatement, and planting wetland species. There is a Lionshead Park in the proposed RETT Budget for 2004 for approximately $790,000. 4. SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL FUNDING OPTIONS After the Town Council determines the highest priority public projects to implement in Lionshead it then is important to evaluate the various financing options. Staff will review each option in greater detail at the next available worksession. The following table provides a summary of the various funding options.

Attachment B CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION CHAPTER 9 ~, Im le e t ti p rn n a on The intent of this chapter is to provide guidance to the Town of Vail as it seeks to implement the recommendations of this master plan. The recommendations regarding priorities, phasing, and timing are intended to tie flexible, not binding, so that the community can adapt the plan to changing conditions and priorities. The project priorities listed below are divided into public and - private improvements, although many projects will be implemented through joint public and private financing efforts. 9.1 .Project Prioritization 9.1.1 Public Improvements The following list of major public improvements outlined in previous chapters suggests priorities based on the relative importance of projects and the interrelationships among them. (The plan acknowledges, however, that other variables also influence future implementation decisions, including construction costs and funding availability. For example, the construction of a Gore Creek recreation path bypass is not as critical to the implementation of the master plan as the north day lot transportation center, but it might be built sooner because of its lower cost and access to RETT funds:) 9.1.1.1 North Day Lot Transit Center This component is essential to the implementation of the Lionshead Master Plan because: a. It is a prerequisite for other critical projects. It will be impossible or very difficult to proceed with other essential projects prior to the construction of the transit center, among them:. • The East Lionshead Pedestrian Portal. A critical component of the pedestrian portal is the removal of the existing skier drop- off, service and delivery, and local/ regional shuttle activity. The master plan relocates all of these activities to the north day lot transit center. The existing level of service and delivery traffic can be accommodated in the proposed surface facility on the west end of the parking structure, but this is a short term solution that does not provide for expanded service and delivery needs. LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN PAGE 9-1 CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION • Concert Hall Plaza Redevelopment. The master plan recommends the removal of the existing Concert Hall Plaza transit stop in order to create a larger redevelopment parcel and. to enhance the west Lionshead pedestrian portal. Although this transit stop could be eliminated today; it will likelybe replaced in the north day lot transit facility. Vail Community/ Civic Center. It will be difficult to remove ~% the charter buses from the future civic center site before a new pick-up and drop-off point is created at the north day lot transit center. • Retail Expansion. Retail expansion in the Lionshead pedestrian core will necessitate the creation of new service and delivery facilities, which the master plan recommends locating at the north day lot transit center. In addition, a significant amount of current service and delivery traffic on West Lionshead Circle that now occurs illegally in the fire lane south of the Landmark Townhomes and in the street would move to that facility. b. It tivill energize a new corridor into Lionshead from the north. One of the primary reasons for a transit center on the north day lot is to create a major new point of entry into the pedestrian/ retail core. The influx of additional pedestrian traffic generated by the transit center will energize the western end of the core area and make retailers there more successful. c. Future transit irnplications If any future technology transit system connects through the Lionshead resort core in the future, the North Day Lot transportation center will play an integral role in connecting to and providing for a central transit stop in Lionshead. ~. 9.1.1.2 The East Lionshead Pedestrian Portal The East Lionshead pedestrian portal is the single most heavily utilized point of entry into Lionshead and Vail as a whole (based upon skier numbers accessing the mountainl. The implementation of the master plan recommendations for this portal will significantly affect the character and visual perception of the study area. 9.1.1.3 The West Lionshead Pedestrian Portal - " The West Lionshead pedestrian portal is critical to the functionir:•~* of the retail core, but it is dependent on the redevelopment of at least one private property (Concert Hall Plaza. It is strongly recommended-that the Town of Vail work with the owners of this property to facilitate its redevelopment. PaGE9-2 LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN ~, CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION 9.1.1..4 Public Space Improvements in the Pedestrian/ Retail Core Virtually equal in importance to the two portals into Lionshead is-the quality of the pedestrian/ retail mall itself. The recommendations made in the site design guidelines for the primary pedestrian mall are critical to this improvement. It is recommended that the adjacent property owners, including but not limited to Vail Associates, participate in planning and funding the implementation of these improvements as they redevelop or expand their properties. 9.1.1.5 Sidewalk and Streetscape Improvements Enhancements to Lionshead's streets and pedestrian circulation patterns are important both functionally and visually. Rather than undertaking the major improvements by itself, the Town of Vail is advised to ask for the financial participation of adjacent properties as they redevelop, or expand. - 9.1.1.6 Development on the South Face of the Parking Structure and East Lionshead Circle Streetscape This project includes two important elements: the creation of a retail/commercial and housing component and the enhancement of the East Lionshead Circle pedestrian corridor. Although these projects can stand alone, or could occur prior to adjacent projects, they are closely related to the East Lionshead pedestrian portal, the Vail Civic Center, the addition of parking decks to the existing parking structure, and the Streetscape connection along West Meadow Drive to Vail Village. The Town of Vail's efforts to promote housing for locals causes these projects to take on a higher priority. 9.1.1.7 South Frontage Road Realignment and Improvements The improvement of South Frontage Road. including widening and acceleration/deceleration lanes, will become more critical as existing properties redevelop and add density. The timing of roadway improvements depends not only on the pace of redevelopment but also on the ability to finance the improvements. Decisions about realigning the road are contingent on the development plans for the west day lot and the Vail Associates service yard. It is likely that the improvements will happen in significant phases. Imposition of impact fees on projects that add density or traffic volume to. Lionshead is one means to secure long-term funding. It is important to note. however. certain improvements are needed now (acceleration/deceleration lanes, signage), making it more difficult to charge those expenses to future projects. LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN PAGE 9-3 CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION 9.1.1.8 Parking Current needs may justify expansion of 500 parking spaces town wide today, but further study of future parking demand may be needed to verify this. Additional-decks on the existing structure or a new public structure in west •Lionshead may be necessary when the Vail Civic Center is constructed or development occurs on the west day lot and the Vail Associates service yard. In any case, the development of the west day lot will necessitate replacement of this existing private parking with either structured parking or an adjacent surface lot. If future parking studies demonstrate a need for significant public parking in the west Lionshead area, a joint venture between Vail Associates, the Town of Vail, and other potential development interests should be considered. 9.L1.9 Vail Civic Center Additional arking must be built (in the existing Lionshead ~ P ~ parking structure or nearby) and he charter bus parking lot must be relocated before the Vail Civic Center can be built. In addition, this project will be integrally tied to development on the south face of the Lionshead parking structure and the streetscape enhancements along East Lionshead Circle. This will be a huge project and is likely to occur only after a longer period of planning and fund raising: other, more critical elements of the master plan should not be made contingent on its implementation. 9.1.1.10 West Lionshead Circle and Lionshead Place Realignment The realignment of this intersection, while important. is not critical to the implementation of the master plan; it could be done in conjunction with the redevelopment of adjacent buildings. Redevelopment ~~ projects that are linked to improvement of the intersection are the Vail Associates core site redevelopment (due to the potential increase in traffic volume accessing the core site via Lionshead Place) and M Concert Hall Plaza. Concert Hall Plaza redevelopment may not increase the volume of traffic on West Lionshead Circle, but it will facilitate the creation of a stronger west Lionshead pedestrian portal, of which this intersection is a critical component. PAGE 9-4 LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN M CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION 9.1.1.11 Gore Creek Corridor Improvements Improvements in the Gore Creek corridor will greatly enhance the ability of locals and guests to experience the creek but are not vital to the overall functionality of Lionshead. However, these improvements are stand-alone projects, not contingent on adjacent redevelopment, - and thus may be significantly easier to implement. both financially and logistically. Because the-creek is a significant benefit to Lionshead. the implementation of improvements here should be diligently pursued but not allowed to delay other, more critical plans. 9:1.2 Private Improvements 9.1.2.1 Individual Property Redevelopment and Exterior Renovations The improvement of individual properties through redevelopment, site enhancement, and exterior renovation is critical to the accomplishment of master plan goals. The Town of Vail should create incentives. encouraae, and facilitate these important projects. using the master plan as a framework to guide renewal and redevelopment projects. The specific recommendations of the plan, including the architectural design guidelines, are not intended to create a disincentive for redevelopment or exterior renovations. If any provision of the plan proves- over time to create a disincentive for desired renewal or redevelopment, Town Council should consider amending it 9.1.2.2 Core Site Hotel A high end resort hotel in the core of Lionshead is a top priority for the Town of Vail, which should provide incentives, encouraae, and facilitate this project. In conjunction with redevelopment of this site, the ski yard should be improved, a new skier bridge constructed. and adjacent pedestrian systems enhanced according to the guidelines set forth in the master plan. 9.1.2.3 Retail Expansion The expansion of certain ground floor retail buildings, as outlined in the master plan, is critical to the overall success of the retail/ pedestrian core area. These projects should be expected to participate as well in the enhancement of adjacent pedestrian systems according to the guidelines set forth in the master plan. The Town of Vail should provide incentives, encourage, and facilitate these projects. West Lionshead Pedestrian Portal 9.1.2.4 Concert Hall Plaza/ The redevelopment of Concert Hall .Plaza will be a private project, but ~~ it also represents a critical public interest: the creation of the west LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN PAGE 9-5 ~. CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION Lionshead pedestrian portal. All reasonable efforts. should be made by the Town to provide incentives, encourage, and facilitate this project. 9.1.2.5 West Lionshead LocaV Employee Housing The development of a significant housing supply in west Lionshead should be a component of any plans to tear down the Sunbird Lodge and redevelop the Vail Associates core site. Housing is linked to the realignment of South Frontage Road, the possible construction of a new west Lionshead parking structure, and additional development on the west day lot and the Vail Associates service yard. To the greatest extent possible, all of these projects should be planned concurrently, and the sequence in which they are implemented should not preclude other future projects. It should be considered a priority by the Town of Vail to determine how much, if any, public parking should occur in this area. 9.2 Mitigation of Construction Impacts As Lionshead redevelops, especially in the pedestrian/ retail core, it is critical that all efforts be made to minimize the impact on existing businesses and merchants. Toward that end the following recommendations are made: 9.2.1 Phasing Construction projects should be phased and scheduled so that no significant area of Lionshead (such as the retail core) is isolated or completely shut down as a result of construction. While it is recognized that short-term impacts will occur, storefronts and critical pedestrian circulation patterns should not be blocked. Every effort should be made to maintain pedestrian access during construction. If a complete shutdown of an area is ever necessitated it should be scheduled for the fall or spring shoulder season to minimize the impact on businesses. 9.2.2 Construction Mitigation Construction impacts include, but are not limited to, noise, dust, equipment exhaust, delivery traffic, and visual impacts. Construction projects that may impact public pedestrian corridors or the pedestrian core must take all reasonable measures to mitigate these impacts. Potential mitigation measures include the creative use of construction fencing (such as the "kidzone" construction barriers utilized in Beaver Creek and the Vai] Village), remote staging areas. and the careful- timing of particularly disruptive or noisy construction events.. .- PAGE 9-6 LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION 9.2.3 Marketing Special marketing efforts are recommended to help draw consumers, into Lionshead during construction periods. 9.2.4 Short-Term Relocation The Town of Vail should work with developers to plan for the temporary relocation of retail businesses that will be displaced by redevelopment. After the proposed development on the south face of the parking structure is completed, ground floor retail/office spaces in that building could satisfy this short term need. 9.3 Financing The Town of Vail can use several financing tools to implement public improvement projects and provide incentives for private development. The list that follows is not exhaustive, nor is it clear which tool will prove to be the best means to implement the, master plan. Potential legal issues associated with the individual financial mechanisms are not addressed. 9.3.1 Private Development Incentives 9.3.1.1 Parking Pay-in-Lieu Relief The parking regulations require a parking pay-in-lieu fee for parking that cannot be provided on site.. This fee, currently. in excess of .$17,000 per required parking space. is a major obstacle to the redevelopment of buildings in Lionshead. Reduction of the parking requirement, as well as the fee, should be considered in the implementation of the master plan. This proposal is particularly relevant to projects that can demonstrate a negligible impact on parking generation. 9.3.1.2 Parking Requirement Reduction The current parking regulations do not take into account the high volume of pedestrian traffic and use of public transit that occur i~n Vail. The regulations are derived from suburban models. not resort communities. where parking supply is shared by multiple uses. By increasing the cost of development, high parking requirements for individual uses in Lionshead may be a disincentive for redevelopment. LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN PAGE 9-7 CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION 9.3.1.3 Density Incentives Increases in allowable density are recommended in the Lionshead study area as an incentive for property owners to redevelop existing properties. 9.3.1.4 Tax Incentives Tax reductions or tax rebates should be considered to aid in the redevelopment of existing properties. They may help property owners defray interest and other recurring costs associated with redevelopment. Tax incentives must be balanced with the need to generate public revenue for future public .improvements. 9.3.2 Public Improvements 9.32.1 Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Tax increment financing is one of the most effective tools available for redevelopment of Lionshead. TIF allows the community to capture a portion of tax revenues that normally go to the county and to utilize them .locally instead to implement public improvements. TIF does not raise taxes; it reallocates the incremental property or sales lax revenues resulting from improvements within the district and uses those revenues to repay bonds issued to finance the improvements. While it is very difficult to forecast TIF bonding capacity without knowing how many redevelopment projects will occur, it is estimated that the Vail Associates core site alone assuming an approximate construction budget of ~ 150.000.000) would generate approximately $25,000,000 in bonding capacity. 9.3.2.2 Special Assessment District A special assessment district could also be utilized to fund public improvements in Lionshead. It is a somewhat less attractive option than tax increment financing because it requires that a new taxing " district be created. Under the Tabor Amendment, this can only be done with an affirmative vote of the community. 9.3.2.3 Application of Impact Fees The construction of public improvements in Lionshead_may also be funded through assessments on redevelopment projects according to their estimated impact on streets and public infrastructure. However, if considered. it needs to b.e balanced with the incentives offered to encourage redevelopment. This option should not become a disincentive to redevelopment. PAGE9-8 LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION 9.3.2.4 Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) The real estate transfer tax will continue to be a source of funding for public recreation and open space in the Town of Vail and should be utilized to the maximum extent possible for appropriate projects in Lionshead. 9.3.2.5 Municipal Bonds Municipal bonds are an important option for funding public improvements in Lionshead, although the issuance of bonds will likely require an affirmative vote under the Tabor Amendment. 9.3.2.6 Grants The Town of Vail and private entities should aggressively seek grants as a source of funding public improvements. 9.4 Revenues and Costs 9.4.1 Revenues The following is a summary of potential public revenues from taxes and development in Lionshead. 9.4.1.1 Tax Revenue A revenue impact model was developed for Lionshead by Stan Bernstein and Associates, Inc. (submitted to the Town of Vail on June 24, 1998 and attached, with notes, as appendix B). The revenue impact model is based on the projected development model attached as appendix D. The revenue projections shown in figure 9.1 assume a five-story average building height and full build-vut of the study area in accordance with the master plan. They do not include potential revenues or costs associated with tax increment financing. 9.4.1.2 Revenue from Development Three potential revenue-generating projects are located on Town of Vail property in the Lionshead study area. Projected construction costs and revenue from these projects are described below and summarized in figure 9.2. _ a. South Face of the Parking Structure. No significant revenue for the Town is assumed from the proposed upper-level housing component of this project, although there may he enough to cover the cost of construction. Estimated construction costs far the housing component are outlined in section 9.5.2 below. Figure 9.2 LIONSHEAD REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN PAGE 9-9 CHAPTER 9 IMPLEMENTATION shows the construction cost of the retail component only and does not include any adjacent streetscape enhancements. b. Infill Development at the East Lionshead Pedestrian Portal. The estimate in figure 9.2 assumes athree-story building on this site, the first floor of which will be retail space and the upper two levels sold fee simple as residential space. c. Infill Development at the Central Pedestrian Plaza. The estimate in figure 9.2 assumes atwo-story building on this site. Only half of the floor space is being allocated to revenue producing uses; the remainder may be public space for restrooms and uses associated with activities in the adjacent plaza. n TnrrQmPnt~I rP.Cilfl'Ina revenues Weighted towards fractional ownership Revenues $3,358,587 % of Town 1998 budget 14.90% Weighted towards whole ownership Revenues $2,607,487 % of Town 1998 budget 11.60% b.

In addition to inflation, issues such as materials, labor, and transportationi shipping casts may impact the accuracy of these figures.

This action should be a high priority after adoption of the master plan. 9.5.2 Rezoning Zoning districts and land use regulations relevant to the Lionshead study area should be updated and modified to reflect the recommendations contained in the master plan and facilitate their implementation. The rezoning process should include the creation of relevant impact fees that would require development to contribute toward the funding of required public improvements associated witl~ the development. 9.5.3 Downtown Development Authority A downtown development authority (DDA) or another appropriate TIF bonding district should be established for purposes of funding public improvements in botk- Lionshead and the Vail Village. The establishment of such a district should 6e considered a top priority by the Town of Vail and should not be delayed by the currently ongoing Broomfield TIF litigation. 9.5.4 Parking Analysis The Town of Vail should conduct an in-depth parking analysis in order to quantifw parking demand and understand what revisions, if any, should be made to the existing parking code. 9.5.5 Employee Generation In accordance with ongoing efforts to provide both locals and employee housing in the Town of Vail, an employee generation ordinance is currently being pursued by the Vail Town Council. Pa~E9-20 LIONSHEAll REDEVELOPMENT MASTER PLANT MEMORANDUM TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Bob McLaurin, Town Manager RE: Town Manager's Report DATE: February 19, 2002 COMMUNITY HOST PROGRAM UNIFORM UPDATE Staff has been working with both the WCTB and VRI for the most economic product for changing the host's uniforms. Last year, the WCTB spent $8,000 on updating the jackets to make them consistent and to have a high quality appeal. Those were unbudgeted dollars from the WCTB. VRI has offered to include our hosts w/their spring uniform order. A pro or con to this (depending on your viewpoint) would be these hosts would then be attired in VRI style/color uniforms, although there could be a substantial cost-saving. Joel Health is also looking into some possibilities through a corporate sponsorship relationship with a major jacket vendor. 50 new coats would be required. Staff continues to gather prices but so far has a bid of $25/cowboy hat (crushable - $1250 total), includes shipping, retail value: $45. VRI has not indicated at this point whether they would be interested in cost-sharing the jackets and hats. Staff would like direction as to whether to continue gathering information for this uniform changeover and whether Council, should VRI choose not to participate, would be willing to foot the bill.

Said that vocal groups have historically gotten action from Council and we need to pursue both the Gymnastics and Ice Dome issues with Council. Piet said that both issues were on the agenda for the Council Retreat on Feb. 12`h. Piet added that he and Mike are in the process of hiring a gymnastics coordinator and have 7 interviews scheduled for the first week of February. Joshua will be involved in the interviews and it is expected that hiring will be complete by mid-month and someone will be on board by the end of February. Nancy also reported that the Chinese Women's Hockey Team will be practicing at Dobson for two days prior to the Olympics. The Breakaways will be hosting them at a dinner and U-14's and U-19's will be invited. There will also be an exhibition game on January 29th with the Colorado Women's All Star team. Nancy has also received good input on opening the Ice Dome early in the morning. Piet responded that use has been very light. Ross had no comments. Tom said that he was excited to look at Dobson, and would also like to look at the Ice Dome. Piet said there would be a reporter and a photographer at Dobson, so that it would be better to do the Dome next time. Chris asked about chairs at the Dome, and Piet said that 30 chairs came over from Dobson and benches were put in last week. Also testing some soft rubber matting. For next year, will look at putting dressing areas inside, but this has to be approved by the DRB. Chris then asked about open ice time at Dobson for free skating. Jim Heber replied that there is public skating 3 times a week during the day and 3 times at night. The Arena runs from 6 a.m. to midnight every day. Chris asked about a party for middle school and high school students. Jim suggested doing it around a game, because high school games are drawing 800-900 people. Could do on a Friday night if there is an opening in the schedule, can put a DJ at center ice. Diane offered help. Piet suggested doing a party every Friday night in April. Jim then reported that the rink will close the month of May for maintenance (as opposed to 6-7 weeks before the remodel). Summer skating school will start on June 1, and there will be a big skating show on July 3`d Piet added that the Skating Club of Vail is asking for $20,000 from the Special Events Commission. However, the Commission is also funding a 12 week rodeo series in Vail. Should there be monies left over from the rodeo, the CSE will fund the skating show. Tom asked Randy about early golf bookings and Randy replied that there has been a lot of activity. Just put out collateral material to hotels, and Wendy and Lisa are calling contacts in the valley and Front Range to confirm names and addresses. Has also had considerable interest from Summit County. Stated that he believes it will be a good year. In response to a question from Nancy, Piet said that he would be scheduling the meeting with Hermann, Ludy and Bob McLaurin in the last week of January. STAFF INPUT Piet reported that ADP will be coming to Vail again this August and will be using Dobson. They have also booked golf. The Montreal Canadiens and the Florida Panthers will be doing training camps at Dobson in September. Randy added that contracts are out to ADP and he is waiting for their return with deposits. Tom Gaylord said that the Nordic Center has held two successful events -the Salomon Series with 1 OS participants, and the High School races last Saturday. Feedback on the track has been excellent. Snowshoe tours are down somewhat, but has more small groups and families from Denver looking for a snowshoe tour with some natural history included. In response to a question from Ross, Tom said that the dog problem has been reduced somewhat. They are asking people to walk dogs only on a leash, and only on the snowshoe track. On the subject of dogs, Piet said there will be a presentation at the next meeting about the Purina Incredible Dog Show. This is tentatively scheduled for Mar 2-3, and would be televised. Diane added that the Family Carnival is scheduled for March 16th at Dobson, and -more dogs -one of the featured acts will be a dog performing on a skateboard. They are hopeful that the Carnival will 2 draw the 1,400 people it did last year. Asked for volunteers. All Youth Services programs are running full. Paul is having a Super Bowl party at Twenty Below on Feb. 3rd. Thanked Wendy for getting the summer brochure together early again this year. Jim Myers said that he and Chase had just put their spring plan together. After the Dome closing, will do tear down and put the range back together. Target opening date is May 15`h, depending on weather. Piet added that they are doing some things that have not been done before, including taking snow off the greens early and applying new products to promote root growth and keep the grass healthy. Lisa reported that the Nordic Ski Club was now doing skate skiing and doing well for their age. Also, the Nature Center snowshoe information will be included on posters along with cross-country ski information form the Vail Nature Center and Vail Resorts. The full color posters will be placed in bus stops and grocery stores throughout Vail. Wendy is still working on the overall summer brochure which she and Lisa have designed in-house for the first time. Expect to mail out the first week of March. Jim Heber stated that he was excited about ADP and the NHL teams coming to Dobson. Will be out of town for the Chinese Women's team events. Has several big-name concerts scheduled. Will give to group when they are touring Dobson later today. Piet reported that Mike is busy with soccer, volleyball, etc. Can't do spring soccer because of field maintenance and lack of space. Bob said that the Concessionaire at Dobson wants to sell her business. There is a candidate interested and both Bob and Jim Heber believe he will be a successful manager. Jim will be interviewing them on the 23`d Chris asked about having Seasons open during hockey games and Nordic skiing times.. Piet replied that there was a productive meeting last week with Tom, Kathryn and Patty. Party is concerned about profit, the District wants to provide the service. Patty will see how business goes.

Bob Trautz, Jim Heber, Randy Houseman, Wendy Cheff, Tom Gaylord, Jean McGuey, Mike Ortiz, Jim Myers, Jim Sanders Scott Cunningham (Speakout), Nino Licciardi, T.J. Conners, Warren Graboyes The meeting was called to order at 9:00 a.m. by Hermann Staufer. He welcomed everyone to the first Board meeting in 2002 and wished all a Happy New Year. NOT ON THE AGENDA Nino reported that he saw several people fall outside the Ice Dome this past weekend because the surface is very slippery. Asked if a canopy could be installed over the walkway to the restrooms. Also asked if there could be three partitioned sections created for a dressing area on the left side of the bubble as you walk in. Hermann responded that the slippery conditions could be taken care of this year, but that there are hurdles on the other issues that could not be addressed until next year. Nino then asked if a few benches at least could be installed. Safety should be the first consideration, and some partitions for dressing. Jim Heber said that the proper material was used, but it freezes up when really cold. Will find out if there are any other materials that could be used for the walkway. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Hermann asked for approval of the December 11th 2001 minutes. Ross moved to approve, Chris seconded. Approved unanimously. NOTICE OF MEETINGS RESOLUTION Tom Saalfeld moved to approve the Resolution Regarding Posting for Meetings and the Time and Location of Meetings to be the same as at present. Ross seconded. Approved unanimously. ELECTION RESOLUTIONS Piet addressed Item (a) Whether to present a ballot issue at the election - specifically the de-Brucing and Gymnastics facility issues. Bob explained that the District is now restricted to the TABOR 5.5% growth limit. The ballot issue would be similar to the Town's de-Brucing issue at the November 2001 election. The TABOR rule is athree-tiered system and the District is already de-Bruced for the first two tiers, and this would remove the final limitation. It would mean collecting the maximum allowable under the 2.76 mill levy, and not giving taxpayers a temporary refund. It is not a tax increase. Bob read the sample question from the Town's November 2001 election which passed overwhelmingly: "Shall the Town of Vail be authorized to collect, keep and expend all revenues it receives from its property tax levy in 2000 and each year thereafter as a property tax revenue change, pursuant to Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution, provided that nothing in this question authorizes the Town to increase its rate of levy without prior voter approval? " Herman expressed a concern that this could be misconstrued as a tax increase and should not be combined with the Board members election. Diana said this was not an issue at the Town election. Bob stated that he could create a more readable version for voters. Nancy asked if this would affect revenues in 2002, and Bob said it would not. Chris said that she had no objections since it was not taking anything away from taxpayers. Tom asked what would happen if valuations went down. Bob explained that since there was no change in the mill levy, it would just mean that less revenue would be collected. Ross stated that historically the Board has tried to keep taxes at the CPI plus local growth. If there is a drop in assessed value, this issue will probably not affect the tax bill, but as long as the language clearly states that there is no increase in the mill levy it might pass. Would like to see this happen as there has been too much emphasis on raising fees all the time. Ross moved to approve a de-Brucing ballot issue similar to the Town of Vail's for inclusion in the May 2002 election. Chris seconded. Approved unanimously. Resolution (b) Whether to conduct a polling place or mail-in ballot and (c) Location of the polling place. Piet stated that we have traditionally gone with a polling place, sharing the election with the Eagle River Water and Sanitation 2 District, and the polling place has been the Town of Vail Council Chambers. Ross moved to conduct the election at a polling place, and that the location should be the same as in all previous elections. Nancy seconded. Resolution (d) Appoint a Designated Election Official to conduct election on behalf of the District. Piet outlined the duties of this position and recommended that it be handled by Jean. Nino asked about verification of ballots, candidate requirements and the distribution of absentee ballots. Piet answered that anyone who is an eligible elector of the District (i.e. a registered voter who is a resident of the District, or a registered voter who is a resident of the State of Colorado and a property owner in Vail) can vote. Jean would be responsible for distributing absentee ballot applications, and the election judges would count ballots and look at registrations. The absentee ballot applications are available now and can be picked up at the VRD Administration oflices at the Tennis Center until a few days before the election. Nino asked that, if it was established that someone is qualified to run for the VRD Board, if is it permissible to collect money for a campaign. Ross outlined the restrictions. Piet added that once all nominations are received, informational packets will be distributed to all nominees at a group meeting. Nominations will be accepted between Feb 6 and March 1 and a notice asking for nominees will be published in the local newspapers. Ross moved to appoint Jean McGuey as the Designated Election Official for the May 2002 VRD election. Nancy seconded. Approved unanimously. BOARD MEMBER INPUT Chris asked for a discussion on Gymnastics and if the issue of raising the mill levy to build a new facility should also go on the ballot. After discussion, it was decided not to pursue a ballot issue at this time, due to a lack of a working agreement with the Town on the cost sharing, the lack of a site or a lease, and the lack of detailed cost estimates and possibly a binding contract. The District does not have any more bonding capacity and the mill levy increase would also have to include operating costs. Nancy asked for another meeting with the Town to gauge their commitment to a Gymnastics program in the town. Feels that questions were not answered in the December meeting. Suggested Piet draft a letter on behalf of the Board, to list the items discussed and/or needing discussion, and ask for a response. if the Town is willing to go ahead and build a facility in concert with the Water District, the VRD should be ready to go ahead. Asked if there would be enough time to do the necessary work to get a mill levy increase on the November ballot, and Piet replied that there was. Hermann reiterated that he thinks it is not the time to ask Town of Vail voters for a tax increase. Shops and restaurants are not doing well, and the new Board members in May should have a say on going into further debt. 3 Piet stated that he believes that the Hubsite project's delay has hurt the District and delayed building necessary facilities. However, he also still believes that putting multiple facilities in one location and presenting it to the voters as a package is still the way to go. Nancy and Chris both expressed frustration and disappointment. Chris stated that it is the Recreation District's responsibility to push Council -and whoever else appropriate -for answers. Nancy asked for figures on operating costs, furnishings and interior finish, said that the Board should have this information to help the case. Piet agreed to talk to Bob McLaurin again. Chris asked that Gymnastics be put on every agenda from here out to May. Hermann suggested that the numbers be obtained and left for the new Board in May to push. Chris objected to putting things off until then. Diana Donovan said that the Board should write a very strong letter to Council. It should detail the type of facility (e.g. top-of--the-line or a smaller community oriented facility), square footage requirements, and plans. She added that there are huge issues to work out between the Town and the Recreation District, and there is a lot of talk going on about it. Nancy asked Piet and Bob to follow up on the letter to the Town regarding the Ice Dome costs. Piet said a meeting will be scheduled and that will get things started. Ross added that there are holes in the Ice Dome agreement and the proposed meeting is between Ludy, Bob McLaurin, Piet and Hermann. Nino asked about involving parents in these discussions and getting their input. Hermann responded that all meetings with the Town and the VRD are open to everyone, but will get the answer as to who is responsible for what so that the VRD knows what expenses it has to pay. Tom asked Jim Heber about the Alien Ant Farm concert and Jim said there were about 1,100 or 1,200 kids there until 12:30, so it worked as intended. A sell-out would have been 2,700. The new facilities worked well. Dobson has the TCO, is working on warranty issues, and is looking for final completion by the end of January. Chris added that everyone ought to go and see what has been done. Tom suggested a tour, and Piet said that it could be done at the next work session. Will start the meeting at the Seasons and go from there. Diana will attend. Chris reported on an e-mail that Greg received regarding the joint meeting with the VRD and the Town. The person said it seemed that the Town had more interest in getting gymnastics moving that the VRD did. She stated that she was embarrassed for us. Diana said that in addition, the Special Events Commission reported that sports events bring no money to Vail. It is really important to not let sports events drop 4 r or to diminish recreation in any way. There is a need to pay attention and read between the lines, it is not good for the town to become just a cultural center. Piet responded that a new summer survey by RRC Associates showed that of the target market, lacrosse had been the best group for Vail. Will provide the Board members with a copy. Stated that the Special Events Commission is trying to target certain groups for certain times of year and adjust events to fit markets_ Nino said that it seems that the ballfields are underutilized and would like to see the fields full all the time. Wants to see more recreation and sports events. Ross added that the security people treat softball players as pariahs and they should be accorded the same treatment as Bravo! attendees. Hermann instructed Mike to keep the fields busy, but to allow time for recovery and maintenance as well. ADJOURNMENT Ross moved to adjourn at 10:05 a.m. Chris seconded. Approved unanimously. `" Ross Davi~,`Jr., secretary ~,, :.- j/O1 BOD/I-8-02 minutes.doc r ~--- t~ Jean Mc ey, Administrative As ' ant 5 February 8, 2002 To: Town Council Fr: John Power Subj: 1995 Ordinance #25- Council CPI Compensation adjustment Council voted in 1995 to include aBoulder/Denver CPI component in its compensation package which by ordinance will be paid shortly (see attached). The purpose of this memo is two-fold: 1) does Council consider it prudent to proceed with this payment in light of present economic conditions and impact on the TOV organization; and 2) if so, staff will need to know which CPI and calculation period to use, as Ordinance 25 has never before been implemented. First, for TOV employees, the town compensation program does not recognize an automatic cost of living component tied to a CPI index. The reasons of this are several: 1) no index exists for our region; 2) salary surveys/ranges reflect the cost chosen markets are willing to pay which includes the cost of living; and 3) perhaps most importantly - when inflation returns, employers lose the ability to pay when rising CPI's exceed revenue. This condition led to serious financial difficulty for employers with CPI- linked pay practices, particularly in the late seventies and eighties. As a suggestion, rather than a CPI approach, Council may want to tie its overall compensation to the municipal resort community, in alignment with the TOV philosophy. Second, if Council wishes to proceed with a CPI increase, Ordinance 25 does not specify which CPI index to use, the "U" (a more broadly defined market basket of goods) or the "W" (a more narrowly defined sample). Staff would recommend the CPI-U. With regard to the calculation period, the ordinance reads "for the preceding four year period". Was it Council's intent to calculate the increase percentage from January 1, 1998, or from the last reported CPI quarter? RECOMIlVIENDATION: Modify 1995 Ordinance # 25 and track Council compensation with the high country resort market. .y s. .r .~ ,. ~~ ORDINANCE N0.23 SERIES OF 9995 • AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 2.48, COMPENSATION OF TOWN OFFICIALS WHEREAS, the compensation for Town Council members and the Mayor have not been increased since 9981; and • WHEREAS, it is believed an increase is appropriate to alleviate expenses incurred by Council members in the voluntary contribution of their time and effort in carrying out their duties and obligations as members ofi the Town Council; and WHEREAS, It is hoped that an increase in compensation will encourage and enable a larger • segment of the Town of Vaii's electorate to ba able to contribute their time and effort in service to the community by serving upon Town Council; and WHEREAS; it has been observed that the time commitment of Town Council members and the Mayor and the workload required to fulfill their obligations has significantly Increased.
