The Planning and Environmental Commission reviewed the proposed View Corridors on November 13, 2000, and forwarded a recommendation of approval to the Town Council. The recommendation was forwarded to Town Council in December of 2000. The Town Council requested that View Corridor #1 be re-surveyed and that View Corridor #2 be considered at a later date when more information about the core site redevelopment was known. In May of 2001, Council requested that both view corridors be resurveyed and brought back at a later date for consideration for adoption. Both view corridors have now been resurveyed and are attached for reference. On July 23, 2001, the Planning and Environmental Commission reviewed the proposed changes to the View Corridors. As a result of the changes, which varied from the original view corridors proposed in the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, the Planning and Environmental Commission requested additional information regarding private property and the effects of the amended view corridors on private F:mcaster/agendas/tc/2002/052102ws development rights. Staff has retained the services of Design Source of Vail to provide photo images of the view corridors with private property lines interpolated onto the views. The Lionshead View Corridors are tentatively scheduled for review by the Planning and Environmental Commission on June 24, 2002.

I HAVE SERVED ON SEVERAL BOARDS FOR THE TOWN OVER THE YEARS. LORELEI TELLS ME I CAN CONTINUE FOR ONE MORE TERM. SINCERELY, ~~~~ 241 S. Frontage Rd.

Frontage Road Vail, Colorado. 81b57 May 13, 2002 Dear Nina, Please consider this letter of interest and experience. for the Vail Housing Authority Commission. As a business owner in the Vail community for the past 13 years, my dealings with housing shortages occur on a daily basis as employees and their peers struggle with the limited options afforded to them in Vail. Having a vested interest, both financially and emotionally, in the success and vibrancy of Vail, I recognize that employee housing within Vail is a key to our success on many levels. Other resorts are able to draw away potential seasonal employees from Vail with the promise of inexpensive and guaranteed housing. With in-town housing available at affordable rates, Vail too would be able to compete for those employees. We are witness to the success the Town of Vail has had by providing housing options. We also are painfully aware of the advantage VA has had by having housing available. Recently, the importance of offering customer service that exceeds the expectations of our guests has become a higher priority. Employees who work two or three jobs and do not have the time necessary to enjoy the Vail lifestyle are unable to offer this invaluable service to our guests. A final key to Vail offering large quantities of employees housing within it's boundaries is the sense of energy and community that is afforded by housing employees in town. Rather than sending them down valley to shop, socialize and live, if we can keep this core group within Vail, the vibrancy of yesteryear may be recaptured. My experience on commissions, boazds and task forces has always, whenever possible, been with a focus on employee housing. Five yeazs spent working on the Vail Tomorrow Housing Team is a good example of my commitment to the issue of employee housing. I am owner of The Grind, a V ail Ski Instructor, founder and past President of the Vail Village Merchants' Association and current President of the Vail Chamber & Business Association. In addition, I have served on the Vail Valley Restaurant Association Board, Peer Resorts, Vail Community Task Force, Eagle Valley Leadership Coalition and the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority. Certainly, all of this experience on vazious commissions and boards has taught me that there are many stumbling blocks to be overcome on our road to successful employee housing projects. The concerns of neighbors in the vicinity of proposed housing projects; the management challenges associated with joint ventures; and selection of projects which meet the needs of the community and are financially feasible are just a few of the main problems the Vail Housing Commission must face. I would be honored to serve on the Commission and believe that my experience and background make me an ideal candidate for the commission.' Thank your or your consideration. Sincerely, Kaye Ferry President Vail Chamber Business Association Sally A. Jackie Attorney at Law 1672 Matterhorn Circle ]'O Box 70 Vail, CO 81658 BY HAND DELIVERY May 14, 2001 Ludwig Kurz Mayor Town of Vail 75 South Frontage Road Vail, CO 81657 Dear Mayor Kurz: This letter is to apply for reappointment to the V ail Local Housing Authority. Tel: 970-476-1300 Fax: 970-476-4494 E-mail: jacaro@vail.net I have been a member of the VLHA for the last year, and I would very much like the opportunity to continue working with my fellow board members. During the past year, the VLHA's primary wank has been to follow-through on the council's RFP for an affordable housing and day care project on the Mountain Bell site. We have selected Coughlin & Co. as the developer for the project, now called the Middle Creek Project, we have negotiated and entered into a development agreement with the Coughlin group and we are now in the process of working with the Coughlin group to plan and obtain Town of Vail approvals of the details of project. Because of the intensity of the work on the Middle Creek Project and the time commitment involved, the VLHA has just begun to formulate a strategic plan, and we have just begun the process of investigating and pursuing additional affordable housing opportunities. We are looking at a wide range of things, from forming partnerships with local employers and businesses, to finding creative ways to get local homeowners to rent out their empty EHUs, to providing assistance to the Town in various housing matters. We are also working on ways for the housing authority to become financially independent of the Town, which will be essential for the long-term viability of the authority. I believe that I have been and can continue to be a contributing, valuable member of the VLHA. In particular, because I am a commercial real estate attorney, I believe that I was able to provide useful legal advice to the authority during the negotiation of the development agreement for the Middle Creek Project, and I believe that I will be able to provide additional useful legal advice to the authority as it embarks on future projects. All of us on the VLHA have worked hard to get things to their current stage of progress. This work is finally starting to pay off, and I would like the chance to be a part of the authority, as it moves to bring the Middle Creek Project to completion, and as it moves to bring other affordable housing opportunities to fruition. I believe you already know something of my personal and professional background. Instead of summarizing my background in this letter, I have attached a copy of my original application to become a member of the VLHA, which I submitted last May, and which contains a detailed summary of my background, in case you want to review it. Thank you for consid~'ring rr~y application. Sincerely; Sally A. Jackie Attorney at Law 1672 Matterhorn Circle PO Box 70 Vail, CO 81658 BY HAND DELIVERY DATE: May 23, 2001 MEMO ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ TO: •Nina Timm, Town of Vail Housing Coordinator •Vail Town Council Dear Nina and Members of the Council: This is to apply to be a member of Vail's Housing Authority Commission. Tel: 9701176-1300 Fax: 970-476-4494 E-mail: jacaro@vail.net Cpp~, Personal Background My husband, Guy Ayrault, and I are full-time residents of Vail. I am an attorney, and my husband, who is a retired physicist, works with me as my legal assistant and researcher, accountant and general computer guru. We were regular winter visitors to Vail for years, before we were finally lucky enough to be able to move to the Vail Valley from Chicago in the summer of 1993. When we first arrived, we rented a town home in Eagle-Vail. In the spring of 1994, we purchased our fixer-upper home in the Matterhorn neighborhood of Vail, where we have been living and fixing-up ever since. We have a two bedroom rental apartment in the lower level of our home, which we have rented out over the years to a series of young people working in Vail-and we still keep in touch with almost all of them. Professional and Volunteer Back rg ound I believe that I have experience and skills that would be assets for the Housing Authority Commission. First, I am a commercial real estate attorney, with extensive experience in real estate development, including development by public-private partnerships. Second, I am a founding member of the board of directors for the local Habitat for Humanity affiliate, with hands-on knowledge of what it takes for a volunteer board to operate effectively. Experience as Commercial Real Estate Attorney I have been a commercial real estate attorney for 27 years. From 1974 to 1981, I was in private practice, first in Ithaca, New York, while my husband was completing his post-doctoral research, and then in Chicago, after my husband became a research scientist at Argonne National Laboratory. (While in Ithaca, I was also elected and served as one of the two Town Judges for the Town of Ithaca). During this period of time, I represented a spectrum of real estate sellers, buyers, landlords, tenants, joint venturers, developers, builders and lenders, and I began to specialize in commercial real estate development. From 1981 until the summer of 1993, when my husband and I moved to the Vail Valley, I was General Counsel and, eventually, both General Counsel and Executive Vice President of a Chicago-based commercial real estate firm, which developed and operated high-rise office buildings, shopping centers Page 2 and mixed-use projects in downtown and suburban Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul and various other cities around the country. Since moving to the Vail Valley in 1993, I have been a solo practitioner. Thanks in large part to our new high-tech. world, I continue to do a great deal of legal work for my former Chicago employer, and I have also built a local law practice representing Vail Valley commercial real estate developers, builders, landlords and tenants, small businesses and common interest community owners' associations. As a commercial real estate attorney, I have developed a speciality in representing developers and owners of office, retail, residential and mixed-use buildings and subdivisions in all phases of real estate development and operation, including joint venture formation, environmental and due diligence review and mitigation, acquisition, planning, financing, design, construction, common interest community formation, leasing, management, refinancing and sale. I have an expertise in negotiating and drafting complex legal documents for all these phases of property development and operation. Also, due to my in-house experience with my former Chicago employer, I have in-depth understanding, not just of the legal aspects of these phases of development, but also of the practical business, financial and political considerations and risks related to these matters. In particular, I have experience in representing developers in public-private partnerships. I was lead counsel for my Chicago-based company for a redevelopment project with the City of Minneapolis and the YMCA, in which my company redeveloped an entire downtown city block in Minneapolis with a high-rise mixed-use complex of offices, retail space, a YMCA sports center, a parking garage and apartments. I was also lead counsel for my Chicago-based company for a redevelopment project with the State of Illinois, in which the State redeveloped an entire city block in downtown Chicago with a high-rise office building, and my Chicago-based company master-leased the lower three levels of the State's building and developed a shopping center on these levels. Today, I still do most of the legal work for this shopping center, including such things as negotiating and drafting retail leases with tenants and operating agreements with brokerage, property management and food court management companies, negotiating ongoing issues with the State of Illinois and negotiating loan documents for refinancing. Experience as Volunteer Board Member I am one of the founding members of the board of directors of the local Habitat for Humanity affiliate, which is formally called "Habitat for Humanity of Eagle and Lake Counties, Inc." As I believe many of you know, Habitat for Humanity is an international not-for-profit charitable organization, whose mission is to eliminate poverty housing. Our local Habitat affiliate has grown from a group of six activists in 1995, to a professional organization with a 17-member board (which includes the president of Vail Resorts Development), and also with a full-time paid executive director, construction superintendent and program manager and hundreds of volunteers and donors. Our board oversees a current budget of approximately $425,000. We have built three houses, one in Gypsum and two in Leadville. We are now in the process of building five more houses in Leadville, three of which will be completed this summer, and the other two of which will be completed next year. In addition to the land on which these five Leadville houses will be built, we have acquired 10 acres of land near Leadville, on which we have started land planning and expect to start building next year, and we are in the process of negotiating afour-way trade of land in western Eagle County, on which we hope to start building next year, as well. Working on Habitat's board has given me experience in such things as strategic and long range planning, developing operating policies and budgets, overseeing staff and professional consultants like Page 3 architects, engineers, land planners and contractors, and, just as important, building consensus among board members, in order to effectively carry out the board's functions and Habitat's mission. Reason for Applyin~ When my husband and I moved to the Vail Valley, we wanted to be active, contributing members of our new community. Since I make my living in real estate, I would like to give back to the community in the same milieu in which I have been so fortunate, and in which I have expertise and knowledge which would be of most use. Thank you for considering my application. * Since its founding in 1976, Habitat has built over 100,000 homes worldwide, and it has become the world's 15~` largest homebuilder. Habitat helps build simple, decent houses for working poor people, whose status in life would otherwise probably never give them the ability to own their own homes. Habitat does not provide ahand-out, it provides a hand up. Habitat acquires land and builds houses, using donations of land, money and materials and volunteer labor and services. The houses are small and basio-approximately 1,000 to 1,200 square feet (depending on family size), and without a garage. The families who are selected to be Habitat homeowners are selected from a pool of applicants, based on their housing needs and fmancial situations, and, as a condition to becoming Habitat homeowners, they must work at least 250-500 hours of sweat equity (depending on family size) helping to build their Habitat home, or working on other Habitat projects. When a Habitat family's house has been built and the family has completed its required sweat equity hours, Habitat sells the house to the family for a purchase price that reflects certain actual costs and values of donated items, but not the value of most volunteer and sweat equity labor, and with no profit mark-up, which puts the price below market value. The family is required to pay a small cash down payment, and Habitat makes a no-interest mortgage loan to the family for the rest of the purchase price, which, combined with the below-market price, makes the family's monthly housing costs affordable. (Our Habitat affiliate, like many other affiliates in resort and high-cost communities, also takes a second shared-appreciation mortgage and a right of first offer on the house, which are too esoteric to describe here, but which enable Habitat, in appropriate situations, to share in certain appreciation in the house and to re-acquire the house for a reasonable price, so that Habitat can use the value of the house, or the house itself, to continue to carry on its mission.) MEMORANDUM TO: Vail Town Council FR: Bob McLaurin, Town Manager f'~_.,,_~..~.--~ RE: Council Retreat Follow up DT: May 11, 2002 Attached to this memorandum are the notes from the Council's retreat held February 12, 2002. While we have distributed this document to you previously, you have not had a chance to discuss it as it a group. As indicated in the notes, you identified desired team characteristics for the council. You also identified desired working relationships with outside agencies and other entities. Finally, you articulated important issues facing our community and identified strategic issues on which you wished to focus for the balance of this council's term. We have scheduled time at the work session to formally review the notes and to assess our progress since February. VAIL TOWN COUNCIL RETREAT NOTES February 12, 2002 1. TEAM EFFECTIVENESS Present We tend to put off making tough decisions. This happens when: • We don't have the information we need. • We solicit too much public input; we create the impression we are a town hall democracy. • We don't reach consensus or have too much concern for consensus. • We look to a perFect solution rather than measure it against our policy objectives. • We don't have buy-in from ourselves from the beginning. • We give too much power to consultants. Future We are an excellent team. We can make the big decisions if we do the following: • We will limit the number of projects to the critical few. • We will be more focused and decisive in our decision-making. We can't act on every suggestion. • We will be clear with staff on what it is we need and when we need it. • We will expect staff to come to us with questions, if unclear. • We will not expect staff to placate us. • We will require quality information in the form of objective, concise executive summaries. • We will be clear when and how we ask for public input so we don't raise false expectations. When we take input, we will tell the public the final decision rests with the Town Council. Since Vail Tomorrow, there has been a perception within the community that "the people" get to direct decisions rather than the elected officials. We will re-establish our decision-making authority and make it clear to the public who will make the final decision when we seek input. Therefore, we will ask the public to help us in the context of information-gathering to prepare us for decision-making.. • We will be mindful that our job is to set policy. • We will be willing to make concessions. • We won't ignore people we don't agree with; we will listen for new information and understanding. • We will agree to disagree with one another. • We will do a better job explaining why we make. the decisions we do, including the "what," the "why" and how we're acting on it. • Regarding future "Town Meetings," we will be clearer in our planning on the purpose and outcomes, as well as how we communicate the event upfront. • We recognize that Council strategies are subject to change every two years. Either we accept it, or explore a way to change the system. It's the timeline we are given and we need to make the best of it. • We will spend more time talking about the positives rather than the negatives. • On big projects, we will become involved from the beginning so we have buy-in. If some of us choose not to participate, we'll support those who are more fully involved without a lot of nit-picking (unless someone happens to be completely against the project philosophically). • We will articulate "conditions precedent" ahead of time. (For example, the need for Vail Resorts to be a major financial partner in the Vail Center) • We will create more intermediary steps with staff to make sure everyone is on the same page. • If we need more information, we will ask for it. We will take responsibility for our communications and will help one another when we seek clarification. Our Meeting Structure • We will continue with the twice-a-month work session format. Agendas will be coordinated to conclude the meetings no later than 5 p.m. The Mayor will review and approve agendas. • Our work sessions will begin with cone-hour discussion on a selected strategic topic. We will schedule these topics well in advance so we can prepare for them. • To maximize our discussions, we will forward research questions for staff ahead of time. • We will encourage staff to keep agendas tight by using memos rather than discussions to address applicable items. 2. TOP PRIORITIES FOR ACTION • Revenue Issue --Role of RETT, how much we want to spend on marketing, should we audit lift tax revenue, etc. Assumes discussions will take up to a year. • Determine Town's Role regardincLRecreation, Culture, Education and Economic Development --What businesses are we in? --Let's present our findings regarding the town's role at our next Town Meeting • Community Facilities --pavilion/meeting room --gymnastics --Vail Center components (recreation, conference, ice) --bubble --whitewater park --CMC space --redevelopment of Municipal Building, Fire Station (includes discussion on fire service) • I-70 --noise (what can we accomplish before this summer, ie speed limit, jake brake, etc.) --sand --capping (Is a private developer interested?

AGREEMENTS ON SPECIAL EVENTS ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE (Discussion to continue at Feb. 19 Work Session) Special Events Objectives • Complement Local Marketing District strategies • Increase occupancy and sales tax collections • Offer Vail another branding opportunity • Increase the quality of experience for guests • Create a sense of community • Round out the strength of the calendar Organizational Structure • Special Events Coordinator will be funded from within Town of Vail special events funds and/or seed money from Vail Resorts; no additional line item will be budgeted by the Town of Vail for personnel costs. • Coordinator will be hired by and report to the Commission on Special Events. The hiring arrangement will be by contract. • Coordinator will serve on the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council. • The Vail Town Council will establish a budget, set policy direction and ratify appointment of the voting members of the Commission on Special Events (5 voting, others ex-officio) • The Commission on Special Events will work with the Special Events Coordinator to develop a recommendation to the Town Council for funding. Other Ideas & Suggestions • What has happened to revenues since TOV started increasing specia( events? Do we get better pertormance from the events the Town of Vail helps subsidize? What about the impact of events we don't subsidize, such as the wine auction, Taste of Vail and duck race? • We must agree on a measurement tool for special events. • We need to discuss marketing strategies. 4. IMPLICATIONS FOR STAFF • Provide quality information in the form of objective, concise executive summaries. • Development review process for private development applications will require readiness by Community Development Department and will necessitate additional resources. • Short-term parking remedies, such as 2-hour shopper parking, will require additional resources. • Both parties acknowledge that micromanagement is currently in check. • Staff appreciates Town Council presence and interaction at events such as the TOV holiday party. 5. IMPLICATIONS FOR COUNCIL MEMBERS • We're not going to put off decisions. We're going to act. • We will listen to our critics to see if they're bringing new information to the table. • We can't let things be derailed. • We will move forward when there are solid reasons to do so. We won't move forward just for the sake of moving forward. • We will take time at the beginning of a project to give clear direction to staff. • We want staff to be proactive, but we want to know what they're working on. 6. WHAT WORKED DURING THE RETREAT • Frank, open discussions. • Kept on point with facilitation from Bob. • Good listening. • Made some compromises. • Didn't talk for sake of talking. • Tone and chemistry in the room was positive. • We kept plugging away. • We had to experience a painful part of the discussion before we got to resolution. • We kept looking for the right question to be answering. • We allowed for limited public participation. • We were less accusatory of one another. 7. IMMEDIATE NEXT STEPS • Tables will be arranged "meeting. style" and moved to the middle of the Council Chambers during work sessions, beginning Feb. 19. • Bring closure to the Special Events discussion at our Feb. 19 work session in which we'll address terms, membership qualifications, timing, financing, role of Vail Resorts, ground rules, etc. • Move immediately to a March 5 work session discussion on the town's role with respect to recreation, culture, education and economic development. • Set dates for the other strategic topics so we can prepare for the discussions. • Set date for partnership meeting with Vail Resorts. • Greg Moffet will distribute suggested reading pages from Bowling Alone. Rod Slifer will distribute Lincoln on Leadership. In a month, we will decide if we will schedule some time to talk about what we read. Formulate our research questions for the ongoing revenue discussions. MEMORANDUM TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Bob McLaurin, .Town Manager DATE: May 15, 2002 RE: SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION Attached to this memo is the first supplemental appropriation and budget adjustment for the FY2002 budget. The first attachment in this document, Proposed Supplemental Appropriations and Budget Adjustments, reflect the specific changes to the Capital Projects Fund, Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund, and General Fund Budgets. The balance of the document is the 5-year Capital Projects Fund Budget and the 5-year Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund Budget, which includes adjustments from what the town saw last fall when the budget was adopted. The following paragraphs will provide some summary detail of both of these documents. Capital Projects Fund Modifications Proposed revenue adjustments in the Capital Projects Fund include increasing the estimate of sales tax revenue by $500,000. As you will recall when we prepared the FY2002 Budget, sales tax revenues were reduced by ten percent (10%) or $1.5 million. Based on current collections, we believe we will collect $500,000 more than we originally forecast in the 2002 Budget. We are proposing to transfer $650,000 from the Heavy Equipment Fund to the Capital Projects Fund. These funds would be used to offset the $1.5 million associated with replacing the storage at the Old Town Shops, as well as improvements to the shop and fleet maintenance areas. (Greg Hall will be prepared to make a presentation on this project at your earliest convenience.) $675,000 reflects the anticipated revenue from the sale of the Old Town Shops. We have not previously budgeted any revenue for this transaction because of the Council's desire to utilize this property to obtain a new gymnastics facility. While we continue to work on a gymnastics facility, it is imperative that we realize some monetary return from the disposal of this asset. In terms of expenditures for the Capital Projects Fund, we are proposing to increase the budget for the Town Shop renovation project by $750,000. This would bring the total project cost to $1.5 million (In addition to replacing the Old Town Shops storage area, the existing building will have to be brought up to current fire codes, building codes, etc.). Village Streetscape Design is included in the 2002 budget for $200,000. This would provide the design contract documents which would allow us to implement the Village streetscape project. We have eliminated the $2.1 million expenditure for the Ruins project. We have also eliminated any revenue which we had budgeted for this item as well (budgeted in FY2003). The Hud Wirth acquisition is reflected in the $2.6 million appropriation. Finally, we have reduced the Donovan Park Pavilion project by $650,000. This will leave the budget at $2 million, which you have indicated is the maximum amount you wish to spend, in addition to what has already been expended, for this building. Real Estate Transfer Tax Modifications Most of the items under Real Estate Transfer Tax Supplemental are roll-forwards from the previous year. The projects roll-forwarded from 2001 are listed by project title. Additionally, we have included $50,000 to the Eagle River Water Shed Council pursuant to the Council's direction. streetscape design of $300,000 is the Real Estate Transfer Tax's portion of the streetscape design in accordance with Council's direction. Capital Projects 5-Year Budget The second attachment (pages 4 - 9) is the 5-year Summary for the Capital Projects Fund. This portion of this documents is perhaps the most important of all of these attachments. As you are aware, this represents the 5-year plan for Capital Projects. Page 4 shows the revenue for this fund for the 5-year period. As indicated, the allocation of sales tax to the General Fund represents the transfer of money from the Capital Projects Fund to the General Fund. As we discussed at the budget hearings last fall, this basically is being used to fund the various economic development projects which the Council has approved (Vail Today, Vail Chamber, Vail Local Marketing District, etc.). Page 9 of this document shows the ending fund balance for the fund. As indicated by the ending fund balance line, we have balanced the Capital Projects Budget in 2003, but as currently drafted, the fund shows deficits of $3-5 million in the out years. Obviously this is a projection-based on current revenue trends and current priorities and we will need to balance the budget as we go forward. However, this line shows the increasing pressure on the Capital Projects Fund, as more revenues are diverted to fund operations and maintenance. None of the costs associated with Lionshead are in the Capital Projects Fund at this point in time. Added to this budget are the Village streetscape improvements of $2.1 million. Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund The third attachment of this document is the 5-year summary of revenues and expenditures for the Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund (Pages 10-15.) This fund includes an additional amount of $2.3 million for Village streetscape Design. Obviously this fund is healthier and has less demand on it than does the Capital Projects Fund. Nevertheless, in the years 2004-2006 the budget is out of balance and we will need to make adjustments in order to balance those out years.

View Corridor 1 is located approximately at the main pedestrian exit of the Lionshead parking structure looking .southwest towards the Gondola lift line. View Corridor 2 is located approximately from the pedestrian plaza at the east end of the Lifthouse Lodge looking south up the Gondola lift line. I. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST On May 20, 1997, recognizing the importance of visual connections, the Tovbn Council approved the use of the existing Town of Vail view corridor ordinance to designate the first protected public view corridors in Lionshead. In order to qualify for protection under the Town's ordinance, a view corridor must meet the following criteria: 1. Is the view corridor critical to the identity, civic pride, and sense of place in Lionshead? 2. Is the view seen from a widely used, publicly accessible viewpoint. 3. Is the view threatened? Is there a possibility that development on nearby property would block the view? According to the Town Code, the purpose statement of Chapter 22, View Corridors is: The Town believes that preserving certain vistas is in the interest of the Town's residents and guests. Specifically, the Town believes that: A. The protection and perpetuation of certain mountain views and other significant views from various pedestrian public ways within the Town will foster civic pride and is in the public interest of the Town. B. It is desirable to designate, preserve and perpetuate certain views for the enjoyment and environmental enrichment for the residents and guests of the Town. C. The preservation of such views will strengthen and preserve the Town's unique environmental heritage and attributes. D. The preservation of such views will enhance the aesthetic and economic vitality and values of the Town. E. The preservation of such views .is intended to promote design which is compatible with the surrounding -natural and built environment, and is intended to provide for natural light to ~~ TOWN OF PAIL ~i buildings and in public spaces in the vicinity of the view corridors. F. The preservation of such views will include certain focal points such as the Clock Tower and Rucksack Tower, which serve as prominent landmarks within Vail Village and contribute to the community's unique sense of place. The Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan identifies five View Corridors. However, it recommends that only two legally protected view corridors be established. The remaining three views are to be established as critical design parameters, not as benchmarked and surveyed corridors. These other three view corridors are contingent on future development, and parameters of these views are to be considered at the time of development. Lionshead View Corridor 1 is-seen from the west end of the Lionshead parking structure, standing at street level at the main pedestrian exit and looking southwest toward the gondola lift line. A full legal description and photo is attached for reference. Lionshead View Corridor 2 is seen from the pedestrian plaza at the east end of the Lifthouse Lodge, looking south directly up the gondola lift line. On November 13, 2000, the Community Development Department initiated the process for the adoption of the Lionshead View Corridors. The Planning and Environmental Commission reviewed the proposed View Corridors on November 13, 2000, and forwarded a recommendation of approval to the Town Council. The recommendation was forwarded to Town Council in December of 2000. The Town Council requested that View Corridor #1 be re-surveyed and that View Corridor #2 be considered at a later date when more information about the core site redevelopment was known. In May of 2001, Council requested that both view corridors be resurveyed and brought back at a later date for consideration for adoption. Both view corridors have now been resurveyed and are attached for reference. On July 23, 2001, the Planning and Environmental Commission reviewed the proposed changes to the View Corridors. As a result of the changes, which varied from the original view corridors proposed in the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, the Planning and Environmental Commission requested additional information regarding private property and the effects of the amended view corridors on private development rights. Staff has retained the services of Design Source of Vail to provide photo images of the view corridors with private property lines interpolated onto the views. The Lionshead View Corridors are tentatively scheduled for review by the Planning and Environmental Commission on June 24, 2002. After the Planning and Environmental Commission makes a recommendation, the Lionshead View Corridors will be scheduled for Town Council II. REVIEW CRITERIA FOR VIEW CORRIDORS A.

Please note Goal #1: Preserve and protect Ford Park, Policy Statements 1, 2, and 3. A request to use the lower bench storage shed across from the picnic pavilion for an "Artist in Residence Program" has been proposed. VRD has agreed to vacate this space. If this use is not in conflict with the current Ford Park Management Plan, the applicant (AIPP) will next apply for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). If Council believes a conflict exists, an amendment to the FPMP will be required prior to submitting for a CUP. A general summary of the proposal: Work on the building-will occur yet this summer, thus allowing an artist to be placed by summer'03, July through Labor Day. The building would be open to the public on certain days and times to see what the artist is doing, possibly to include demonstrations or even art instruction. Sales and/or commissions for artwork could be a part of the mix, with AIPP taking a percentage (1-2%). The artist would live elsewhere. No criteria have yet been set regarding the type of artist (sculptor, painter, paper maker, etc.?). Some of the artist's work "could" be done immediately outside the building. The building will have electricity installed but no water or bathroom facilities, e.g., the artist would use the facilities at the playground. AIPP will continue to hold their annual summer exhibition on the east side of the picnic pavilion, and the Alpine Gardens may start offering classes next year, as well. Staff would like direction on whether AIPP has Council permission to proceed through the development review process or whether more background and a work session is required. CC: Mary Caster \\ Section ~: Goals Objectives, Policies and Action Steps. Goals for Ford Park are summarized in six major goal statements. Each goal statement focuses on a particular aspect of Ford Park brought up during the stakeholder and public input portions of the vlanagement Plan process. As one might anticipate, there is a certain amount of overlap between the Goal statements. The issues concerning Ford Park are complicated and convoluted as are the solutions to these issues. ~It is intended that the goal statements be consistent and complementary to each other and be designed to provide a framework. or direction, for the future management of Ford Park. A series of objectives following each coal statement outline specific steps that can be taken toward achieving each stated goal. Policy statements are intended to wide decision-making in achieving each of the stated objectives in reviewing development proposals and implementing capital improvement projects. Action steps are the final measure in implementing the Goal statements. Illustrative plans following the Goals. Objective, and Action Steps are included to help explain the concepts represented by those statements. T'ne illustrations are conceptual and are not to be considered as final design solutions. Goal #1: Preserve and prot'~ct Ford Parlc. Objectives: 1. l : Limit future development. Action Step 1.1.1: Draft a new ordinance to exclude those uses listed in Ordinance No.6, Series of 1973, now considered to be inappropriate. and to redefine the allowable uses within Ford Park. Policy Statement 1: The following uses that are allowed and prohibited for Ford Park shall take precedence over Section 18.36.030 of the Municipal Code concerning the General ~"se Zone District.

Vail Alpine Garden Foundation.-and Vail Recreation District, or their successors. 1?: Refine criteria for evaluating future development proposals. Action Step 1?.1: Update the Design Criteria and Site Guidelines included in the i 98~ Ford Park vlaster Plan bv: a) Creating additional development `7uidelines for underground, low visual impact type structures, enhanced landscaping, and full and complete impact mitigation. b} Enforcing existing criteria and guidelines to solve andlor avoid problems associated with development projects within Ford Park. 1.3: Designate Preservation Zones within Ford Park to protect sensitive natural areas and/or butter zones between venues areas from developmental impacts. Define allowed ~ uses within Preservation Zone areas. Action Step 1.3.1: Define criteria for designating Preservation Zones and their uses within Ford Park. For example, significant native vegetation, wildlife habitat, and wetlands may be criteria for designating sensitive natural areas. while 12 Memorandum To: Vail Town Council From: Matt Mire, Town Attorney Date: May 16, 2002 Re: Amendment to Title 7, Chapter 3 of the Vail Town Code, regarding the towing, storage and sale of abandoned vehicles Several members of the Vail Police Department, including Chief Henninger, have requested an amendment to the Town Code regarding the Town's procedures for the towing, storage and sale of abandoned vehicles. As explained to me, The Vail P. D. spends an inordinate amount of time and resources complying with the Town's abandoned vehicle procedures, including the requisite reports, notices, appraisals and sales of the subject vehicles. (See attached cost estimate associated with impounding and disposing of abandoned vehicles). As you might expect, the operational vehicles are usually claimed by their owners and the Town is left with inoperable, abandoned vehicles with little or no value. As a result the Town's impound lot is often filled with worthless abandoned vehicles. C.R.S. 42-4-1801 et seq. governs the towing, storage and sale of abandoned vehicles. Section 42-4-1814 specifically authorizes municipalities to contract for the processing of abandoned vehicles or to enact legislation with alternative provisions. Vail chose to enact ordinances, which are set out in Title 7, Chapter 3, of the Vail Municipal Code. The original ordinance was enacted in 1968, and has only been amended twice since that time. The choices now available to you are to 1) do nothing, and remain in the business of doing paperwork, sending notice, appraising, storing and selling abandoned vehicles. A procedure, which according to the Police Department, is unsatisfactory; 2) Amend the Code to specifically authorize the P.D. to contract for towing, storage and sale of abandoned vehicles exclusively; or 3) Amend the Code to allow the P.D. to contract, at it's discretion, for towing, storage and sale of abandoned vehicles while retaining the Town's current procedures. Vail Police Chief, Dwight Henninger, has specifically requested that the Code be amended to allow the P.D. to contract for the required services, while retaining the Town's current procedures. As such, I recommend the following amendment to Title 7, Chapter 3: 7-3A-9: RIGHT TO CONTRACT Notwithstanding the procedures set out in Sections 7-3A-3 through 7-3A-8, the Town, at its discretion, may forego said procedures and execute a contract or contracts for fhe removal, storage, or disposal of abandoned motor vehicles in accordance with C.R.S. § 42-4-1814, as amended. Vail Town Council, Abandoned Vehicle memo May 16, 2002 Page 2 In addition to the changes contemplated above, Section 7-3A-3 of the Code contains an erroneous reference to C.R.S. § 42-4-1102, which has absolutely nothing to do with abandoned vehicles. Accordingly, the reference should be either corrected or deleted. Attachment Abandoned Vehicles Cost estimate to impound and process the paperwork for an abandoned vehicle including associated costs: Tow-1 hour @ $100.00/hour 100.00 Process paperwork-8 hour per vehicle @ $15.40/hour 123.20 Transport prospective purchasers (auction)-5 hours @ $15.40/hour 77.00 Time required to move cars in the impound lot to access vehicles-1.5 hours @$100.00/hour 150.00 Time incurred by public works to plow the lot-1 hour @ $19.11/hour 19.11 Auction advertising expense-approx..75 cents/vehicle ($15.00/20 vehicles) .75 TOTAL Approximate cost of the average tow charge for an abandoned vehicle-$100.00 Approximate average income from an abandoned vehicle sold at auction-$50.00 Approximate number of abandoned vehicles sold at auction annually-100 Capacity of impound lot-approximately 40 vehicles Cost of having a vehicle not sold at auction taken away-$25.00 Approximate time to process vehicle from impound to sale-3 months $470.06 PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSION PUBLIC MEETING RESULTS Monday; May 13, 2002 PROJECT ORIENTATION / -Community Development Dept.
