TOWN COUNCIL
EVENING SESSION AGENDA
6:00 P.M. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2006
VAIL TOWN COUNCIL CHAMBERS
75 S. Frontage Road W.
Vail, CO 81657
NOTE: Times of items are approximate, subject to change, and
cannot be relied upon to determine at what time Council
will consider an item.
1. ITEM/TOPIC: Citizen Participation. (10 min.)
2. ITEM/TOPIC: Town Manager's Report. (10 min.)
Recognition of Rick Scalpello for his efforts organizing and
developing the Vail Farmer's Market.
• Construction Update.
3.Pam Brandmeyer ITEM/TOPIC: A request to proceed through the development
review process to locate a skate board park on the west end of
Donovan Parka (15 minutes)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
modifications, or deny the request to proceed through the
development review process.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: $400,000 from the Real Estate
Transfer Tax fund has been set aside in the '06 budget to provide
the town w/a skate board park. At this time, staff from both the
Vail Recreation District(VRD) and the Town of Vail(TOV) have
been working on some preliminary plans to site the skate board
park on the west end of Donovan. In order for this to occur, the
Donovan Park Master Plan would have to be modified to allow for
this use, requiring a public review by the Planning and
Environmental Commission (PEC) and ultimately by the Town
Council. For numerous reasons, e.g., convenience,
neighborhood, parking, restrooms, excellent visibility, and so on,
staff believes the approximately 7,500 SF will nicely accommodate
a skate board park at this site. Should an amendment to the
Donovan Park Master Plan be approved by PEC and the council,
the next step would be to prepare a Request for Proposals for a
"design/build" team. Skate board park "users" would be included
in public session(s) to gather ideas for this element and staff
would travel to other successful skate board parks around the
state. Considerable time was spent two years ago by the former
VRD/TOV Capital Committee reviewing potential sites and those
outcomes are in your packet.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Town Council grants
permission to proceed through the development review process.
4. ITEM/TOPIC: A request to proceed through the development
review process with a proposal to install a new manhole, sanitary
sewer line and retaining wall on the Town-owned stream tract
parcel adjacent to the Vail Mountain View Town home
development site, located at 442 South Frontage Road. (20 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
modifications, or deny the applicant's request to proceed through
the development review process.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Eagle River Water and
Sanitation District and the owners of Vail Mountain View town
home development site are in the process of undergoing
development review of an application to install a new manhole,
sanitary sewer line and retaining wall on Town of Vail property,
located upon Tract B, Vail Village 5th Filing. The new manhole,
sanitary sewer line and retaining wall are required to facilitate the
redevelopment of the old Apollo Park condominiums. Currently,
the sanitary sewer line runs through the center portion of the
development site. The new retaining wall is needed to ensure
adequate soil cover exists overtop of ,the new sewer line to
prevent freezing during the winter months. The Town Council, as
the property owner of Tract B, must grant the applicant permission
to proceed through the development review processes. Should
the Town Council grant permission to proceed, the applicant will
proceed with the appropriate development review applications for
Design Review Board review and consideration.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Community Development
Department recommends that the Town Council grants permission
to proceed through the development review process.
5. Greg Hall ITEMROPICA request to proceed through the development
review process and modify the approved Meadow Drive
Streetscape Plans in the area of the Solaris Development.. (5 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
modifications, or deny the applicant's request to proceed through
the development review process.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Town of Vail has DRB
approval and improvements under contract to proceed with
streetscape work in front of the Solaris project on Meadow Drive.
The Solaris developer would like to proceed through the process
to modify the plans. The developer is responsible for all the costs
of the streetscape in the area of any modifications.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend the Town Council
grants permission to proceed through the development review
process working with the town staff on design concepts and final
approved plans.
6. Todd Oppenheimer ITEM/TOPIC: Seibert Circle Final Design. (30 min)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: 1) Approve the. final
design for Seibert Circle. 2) Approve an overall project budget of
$675,000 assuming a $325,000 commitment of private sector
funding is received by December 5, 2006. 3) Conditionally
approve the award of the design, fabrication, and construction
contracts based on the private sector funding.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: On September 5, 2006, the 5
design concepts for Seibert Circle, prepared by WET Design and
Wenk Associates, were displayed and discussed in an open
house forum. 20 to 25 people attended the open .house. A written
description of each concept, with the estimated cost, was
distributed to each person attending. It was explained that the
cost of all 5 concepts exceeded the Town's budget allocation.
People were asked to indicate. which, if any, of the design
concepts they preferred so raising additional funds from sources
outside the Town's budgets could be started.
Staff received 15 responses. The WET Design Concept 3 with
"Leapfrog" water jets and "Water on Fire" nozzles received the
most favorable responses. It, of course, also contains the most
expensive technology. The estimated cost for this concept is
$672,311. The current budget allocation for Seibert Circle is
$350,000. Vail Resorts has committed $200,000 out of the Front
Door public art allocation if the Council will adopt any one of the 4
WET Design concepts. This contribution leaves the shortfall at
$122,311. Local residents Ron Riley and Alan Kosloff .have
committed to raising the balance of the required funds if the
Council will adopt Concept 3 as the final design.
The optimal time for construction of the improvements is spring of
2007. The feature can be complete and fully operational by July
1, 2007. In order to complete the work, WET Design will need to
begin final engineering in early December. The conditional
approval of the design and construction contracts will allow Mr.
Riley and Mr. Kosloff time to raise the additional funds. The
deadline for raising the funds will be the December 5, 2006, Town
Council session. The conditional approvals will expire after that
time.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff requests that the Town
Council adopt Concept 3, Leapfrogs and Water on Fire, prepared
by WET Design as the preferred design for Seibert Circle. Council
will approve an overall project budget of $675,000 assuming
$325,000 in private funds, and conditionally approve the award of
the design, fabrication, and construction contracts.
7. Matt Mire ITEMROPIC: ORDINANCE NO. 26, SERIES 2006, AN
EMERGENCY ORDINANCE DECLARING THE TOWN
COUNCIL'S INTENT TO ADOPT AN ORDINANCE
ESTABLISHING EMPLOYEE HOUSING REGULATIONS FOR
COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AND
REDEVELOPMENT, AND APPLYING SUCH REGULATIONS TO
NEW DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS. (15 min.)
BACKGROUND: In May, 2006 the Town of Vail engaged RRC
Associates, Inc. to prepare a Town of Vail Nexus/Proportionality
Analysis for Employee Housing Mitigation Programs. The
purpose of this was to create a legal basis for assessing an
employee housing mitigation requirement on commercial and/or
residential development. That study is now complete and its
findings have been presented to Town Council. Prior to adopting
any regulations regarding employee housing, the Town Council
would like to ensure that it has provided adequate opportunity to
educate the public about employee housing. The Town Council
has further determined that additional time is necessary to study
employee housing options before adopting new employee housing
regulations. As such, rather than impose a moratorium on
development to give the Town adequate time to study employee
housing options, the Town would like to allow new development
applications to be submitted during the study with the
understanding that. those developments will be subject to the
pending employee housing regulations when and if those
regulations are adopted by the Town Council.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider Ordinance No.
26, Series 2006, for approval.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve Ordinance No 26, Series
2006.
8. Matt Mire ITEM/TOPIC: Resolution No. 13, Series 2006, A Resolution By
the Town of Vail Council Urging Vails Voters to Educate
Themselves and then Oppose Ballot Issue Number 38 in the
November 7, 2006 Election. (10 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider Resolution No.
13, Series 2006, for approval.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Colorado Secretary of State
certified Ballot Issue Number 38 on December 6, 2005. This
dramatic proposal would substantially change the historical
referendum process in Colorado. ,Among other things this
amendment would expand the referendum powers towards all
local governments including "all enterprise authorities and other
governmental entities." These enterprises and other governmental
entities would be seriously and detrimentally impacted by such
referendum. Proposals similar to Amendment 38 have twice
before been rejected by the Colorado voters in both 1994 and
1996 by substantial margins. The proposal is not clearly written
and creates with virtually every line of the proposal numerous
practical and legal interpretation questions. Strictest compliance
is required against hundreds of governmental districts which
would create a substantial cost to the State even if only complaint
based enforcement occurs. This ballot item would overrule any
conflicting State constitution provision, home rule Town charter
and all other state and local laws. The procedures set forth
present an unfair playing field in that the Plaintiffs can recover
their attorney's fees but governmental entities have practically no
chance of recovering. taxpayers dollars spent on frivolous
compliance actions. Such broad initiative and referendum right
would seriously disrupt the operations of government. Council
would be forced to delay local laws from going into effect before a
91 day waiting period had passed. .The measure purports to
prohibit any future ballot issue rejected by the voters if the future
issue is wholly or mostly similar to the rejected ballot item.
Amendment 38 mandates taxpayer financed political advertising in
the form of up to one thousand word statement, for petition
proponents. Opponents have no such right under this. ballot item.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Consider Resolution No. 13, Series
2006 for approval.
9. Matt Mire ITEM/TOPIC: Resolution No. 19, Series 2006, A Resolution in
Opposition to the 2006 Ballot Issue Known as "Term Limits for
Supreme Court and Court of Appeals Judges," Amendment 40 to
the Colorado Constitution, that Would Politicize the Appellate
Courts and Adversely Impact the Judicial Process . (10 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider Resolution No.
19, Series 2006, for approval.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: An initiated constitutional
amendment, Amendment 40 to the Colorado Constitution, has
been certified for consideration by the voters of the state of
Colorado at the regular election to be held on November 7, 2006.
Amendment 40 would cause all appellate court judges to be up for
reelection at the general election in 2007 but only if those judges
have not then served ten years in office. The effect of
Amendment 40 would be to remove from office next year five
supreme court justices and seven court of appeals judges. The
effect of Amendment 40 would be to limit the independence of the
judiciary and to politicize their appointment by placing a limit of ten
years on the service of any appellate judge, thereby empowering
the governor with the appointment of a majority of the appellate
judges after each general election. The further effect of
Amendment 40 would be to deprive this state of the wisdom and
experience of our sitting appellate. judges and substitute on-the-
job training after each appointment. The further effect of
Amendment 40 would be to discourage the most qualified trial
judges and attorneys from applying for appointment to the
appellate bench. The further effect of Amendment 40 would be to
cause newcomers to the appellate courts to be reviewing the
decisions of seasoned trial judges, for whom no term limits are
proposed. No other state has placed term limits on the judiciary.
The best interests of the Town of Vail and its citizens will not be
served by the attack on the independence and competence of the
judiciary contained in Amendment 40. .
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Consider Resolution No. 19,
Series 2006 for approval.
10. Matt Mire ITEMROPIC: Resolution No. 20, Series 2006, A Resolution in
Support of Referendum I: The Colorado Domestic Partnership Act.
(10 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Consider Resolution No.
20, Series 2006, for approval.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Thousand of law-abiding, taxpaying
Coloradans are denied basic legal protections and responsibilities
merely because they live in committed, same-sex relationships.
Committed same-sex couples are not guaranteed the right to visit
a partner in the hospital, direct his or her care in a nursing home,
or to leave their property to whom they wish upon death. Gays
and lesbians who die without a will are more likely to have their
property left to the government than to their partner. This
November, Colorado voters will have the opportunity to approve
Domestic Partnerships, a registered civil contract between
committed same-sex couples. Domestic Partnerships, while not
marriage, will provide many, but not all, of the protections and
responsibilities that these couples deserve. The passage of
Referendum I will send a strong signal throughout the country of
Colorado's committed to fairness and equality for all citizens.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: .Consider Resolution No. 20,
Series 2006, for approval.

Memorandum
To: TOV/VRD Capital Committee
From: Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager
Dennis Stein, Director Vail Recreation District
Diane Johnson, VRD Youth Services Manager
Todd Oppenheimer, TOV Capital Projects Manager
Date: December 22, 2004
RE: Proposed skate park site selection criteria.
During the November 18, 2004 meeting of the Capital Committee, a list of eight potential
sites for the skate park were discussed. These included the following sites:
• Ford Park Soccer Field east (discarded)
• Ford Park Tennis Center
• Booth Falls Park
• Bighorn Park
• Donovan Park lower or middle benches
• Stephens Park west
• Chamonix site
• Chalet Road tennis court (discarded)
The Soccer Field and Chalet Road sites were discarded because of incompatibility with
adjacent properties and will not be included in the following narrative.
Two additional sites have been suggested since the November 18 meeting. These sites
will be discussed in the narrative and are as follows.
• Ford Park Lower Bench
• Soccer Field parking lot (above an underground structure)
To begin the pro/con analysis of the remaining sites an article written by Jim Barnum .has
been included. We are not promoting Jim Barnum or his company however, this short
article does a good job of summarizing the important considerations in selecting a site.
written and submitted by Jim Barnum of ~ectrum Skatepark Creations
Key Consideration
Inclusion of your skateboard facility in an existing community park area conveys positive
community acceptance. Town policy makers can take this proactive step towards making
the youth feel received & approved of. A site of this nature brings different types of
people together, making interaction & learning possible. In the case of a skatepark, this
type of location provides a rare opportunity to connect with the typically hard to reach,
s
"non joining" & often misunderstood youth. When given the chance, these kids prove to
be friendly & intelligent with plenty to offer the community.
Including the skatepark in an existing facility can take care of some of the following
criteria:
• central location
• proximity to public & private transit
• proximity to parking
• available number of parking stalls
• foot & bike access
• high pedestrian traffic area (for safety, security, monitoring, & showcasing this
dynamic sport to the public through non-threatening viewing areas- -people love
to watch.
spectator accomodation [two areas: ,one close for the skaters & youth, the other
slightly removed for everyone. Also provides safety from flying boards etc. -see
above.
• shelter
• storage area [for brooms, rails, pads, etc., run by a skateboard club or the town)
• water fountain
• washrooms
• lighting (contrary to popular belief this curbs night time problems)
• telephone (for safety & emergencies)
• trash cans
• concessions (possibly run by or employing a skateboard club or youth group)
Further, if constructed within an existing park, parents are likely to be comfortable
leaving their kids to skate while they enjoy other areas in the park. Location can
potentially bring families & the community closer together. This is an essential part of
park design & landscape planning.
Other Considerations
• size (minimum 10, 000 sq. feet/ 930 sq. metres)
• expansion potential (many communities surveyed said "should have made it
bigger" & "twice the size')
• topography, soils, drainage, vegetation & environmental concerns,. underground
service conduits
• proximity to business & service district [this strategy is to keep your park close to
the "skateboarder problem" if there is one, drawing directly from the problem
area. It also allows the youth access to concessions & the community in general.
• construction & maintenance access
• emergency access
• visibility (parents, police, emergency services)
• neighbourhood & surrounding area impact (visual &sound--these are minor
concerns )
r
Notes
The most popular & successful placement of skateparks has been alongside community
parks, recreation centres, & schools. As with all aspects of planning, the skaters should
be consulted. If they don't like the site, the facility won't be used. One other idea is to use
land which is unsuitable for any other use. These sites at-e usually totally unsuitable, but
this thought sometimes produces great results.
Community building & humanity are pillars of parks planning. Your skateboard facility,
if properly planned, can dramatically affect your youth & their connection to the
community & their elders.
End of article.
As you can see from Jim Barnurn's article, the criteria for selecting a site is not
complicated but is probably the most important aspect of a successful project. In general,
the location, size of available area, accessibility to parking, public transportation, and
pedestrian/bicycle routes are the major site selection criteria. Other aspects referenced in
the article can influence these criteria.
Through professional experience, VRD staff has identified additional site selection
criteria useful in evaluating proposed skate park sites. These are as follows:
• Skate parks located adjacent to police and fire stations have proven successful in
other communities.
• Skate Park use increases with visibility and results in lower vandalism and better
overall behavior of users.
• Solar exposure is an important consideration in a mountain environment. A
sunny exposure extends the useable season by several weeks.
• Sites located in neighborhoods will experience higher use and lower parking
demand because many users can walk to the park.
As an additional note, an idea has been brought forth to extend the use of the skate park
and provide a facility for another type of skating. The idea is to refrigerate the skate park
surface during the winter months and provide a facility for snow skate users. The town
currently owns a refrigeration system from the .Ice Bubble which could be retained when
the Bubble is finally sold. It is believed there is considerable overlap between skate
boarders, snowboarders, and snow skaters. This could be an opportunity to capture a new
market and create a very unique facility.
The following outline begins to organize the site selection criteria in a way that can be
used to evaluate potential sites.
1) Location
a) High pedestrian traffic area
b) Visibility
c) Adjacent to other recreation opportunities
d) Solar exposure
e) Proximity to business district
f) Proximity to police/fire station
g) Neighborhood setting
h) Topography, soils, etc.
2} Size of available area
a) Required physical space
b) Shelter
c) Restrooms
d) Storage area
3) Accessibility
a) Public and Private Transit
b} Parking
c) Pedestrian and Bicycle Routes
d) Construction and Maintenance
e) Emergency
Many of these same criteria also affect the financial aspects of the project. Sharing
parking, restrooms, bike paths, and other facilities already in place (or planned as part of
a larger project) will save hundreds of thousands of dollars in the cost of constructing the
skateboard park itself.

Booth Falls Park
Note: The town has funds budgeted in 2006 or 2007 to reconstruct the playground area

park as well as some parking and restrooms which could also serve the Forest Service
trailhead located nearby. Park elements could be located where most appropriate to
surrounding the neighborhood. Parking, skate park, restroom uses would be closer to the
Frontage Road with playground, tennis and picnic uses closer to the residential area.

Summary:
The Town Council has included funding in the RETT Capital Budget for a skate park
facility design in 2005 and construction in 2006. This indicates a desire to move forward
with the project as quickly as possible. Vail will be without a skate park facility for at
least the 2005 season. With a new skate park being planned for Edwards in 2005, there is
a possibility of losing this activity to down-valley recreation providers. The following.
summary is based on that premise. '
The best opportunities for skate park development are with one of the undeveloped or
under-developed sites. These are Chamonix, Booth Falls Park, Donovan Park -Middle
Bench, and Soccer Field parking. These offer the most flexibility in design and the least
impact to existing recreation facilities. The Soccer Field site requires an expensive
parking structure to be built before a site is actually available. If some of Vail Resort's
parking funds were to be diverted from Lionshead to the Soccer Field site, the completion
date will still be several years in the future. This probably precludes that site from
consideration. Of the three remaining sites, Chamonix probably ranks first because of its
proximity to the commercial area and the neighborhood. This is also a site being actively
programmed for development. Booth Falls Park ranks second because of its proximity to
the Vail Mountain School and other recreation activities and its visibility from the
Frontage Road. Changing the scope of the Booth Falls Park project from playground
reconstruction to full park redevelopment will affect the RETT capital budget by
increasing and accelerating the required funding. Donovan Park -Middle Bench is not
as desirable because of its limited visibility and lack of adjacent commercial and
recreation opportunities. However, this remains an open, undeveloped recreation site.
Several members of this neighborhood have discussed the development of a
neighborhood park in the past. It is unknown if a skate park would be desirable to the
neighborhood.
The site selection process should include involvement from the community and the

MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: October 17, 2006
SUBJECT: Annexation Process Summary
L PURPOSE
During recent Town Council discussions related to the potential annexation of the
Highlands Meadows neighborhood, the Town Council requested that Staff
prepare a summary of the annexation process. The following is a brief outline of
the steps associated with -the annexation of lands into the Town of Vail.
II. ANNEXATION PROCEDURES
Neither the Vail Town Charter nor the Vail Town Code establishes specific
policies or procedures for the annexation of lands into the Town of Vail.
Therefore, the provisions of Article 31-12, Part 1 (a.k.a. "Municipal Annexation
Act of 1965") of the Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS) shall apply to any
proposed annexation. The following is a brief summary of the procedures
applicable to a potential annexation of the Highlands Meadows neighborhood or
similar areas:
Step 1: Eligibility for Annexation
An area is eligible for annexation if:
a) Not less than one-sixth of the perimeter of the area proposed to
be annexed is contiguous with the Town of Vail
b) A community of interest exists between the area proposed to be
annexed and the Town of Vail; that said area is urban or will be
urbanized in the near future; and that said area is integrated with
or is capable of being integrated with the Town of Vail.
Step 2: Initiation of the Annexation Process
Annexation procedures are generally initiated by one of three methods:
a) Initiation by the Annexing Municipality: The Town of Vail may
only initiate the annexation of "enclaves" and Town owned lands.
Therefore, annexation of the Highlands Meadows neighborhood or
similar areas must be initiated by either a petition for annexation
or a petition for an annexation election.
b) Petition for Annexation: The landowners of more than 50% of
the Highland Meadows neighborhood area, excluding public
streets, may petition the Town of Vail for annexation.
c) Petition for an Annexation Election: At least seventy-five
qualified electors, or ten percent of the qualified electors,
whichever is less, may petition the Town of Vail to commence
proceedings for the holding of an annexation election in the area
proposed to be annexed.
Step 3: Setting a Hearing Date
As a part of a resolution finding substantial compliance of an annexation
petition or of a petition for an annexation election with the standards
outlined in the CRS, the Town Council shall establish a date; time, and_
place for a hearing to determine if the proposed annexation complies with
the eligibility standards of the CRS. The hearing shall be held not less than
thirty days nor more than sixty days after the effective date of the
resolution setting the hearing.
Step 4: Annexation Impact Report
The Town of Vail shall prepare an impact report concerning the proposed
annexation at least twenty-five days before the date of the hearing and
shall file one copy with the Board of County Commissioners within five
days thereafter. A report is not required for annexations of ten acres or
less in total area or when the Town of Vail and the Board of County
Commissioners agree that the report may be waived.
An annexation impact report shall include, as a minimum:
a) A map of the Town of Vail and the adjacent territory to show the
following information:
(I) The present and proposed boundaries of the Town of
Vail in the vicinity of the proposed annexation;
(II) The present streets, major trunk water mains, sewer
interceptors and outfalls, other utility lines and ditches, and
the proposed extension of such streets and utility lines in
the vicinity of the proposed annexation; and
(III) The existing and proposed land use pattern in the
areas to be annexed;
b) A copy of any draft or final pre-annexation agreement;
c) A statement establishing plans for extending municipal services
into the annexation area.
d) A statement establishing the method under which the Town of
Vail plans to finance the extension of any municipal services into
the annexation area;
e) A statement identifying existing districts within the annexation
area; and
f) A statement on the effect of annexation upon local-public school
district systems.
Step 5: Hearing and Findings
Any person may appear at the hearing and present evidence upon any
matter to be determined by the Town Council. Upon the completion of
the hearing, the Town Council, by resolution, shall make findings of fact
and conclusion on the following:
a) Whether or not the area is eligible for annexation, and
b) Whether or not an annexation election is required;
The Town Council shall also determine whether or not additional terms
and conditions are to be imposed as part of the annexation.
Step 6(a): Annexation without Election
If the adopted resolution of the Town Council determines that the area is
eligible for annexation, .that an election is not required, and that no
additional terms and conditions are to be imposed, the Town Council may
annex the area proposed to be annexed by ordinance.. The annexation
shall become effective upon the effective date of the annexing ordinance.
For the purpose of general taxation the annexation shall be effective on
and after the following January 1.
Step 6(b): Annexation pursuant to Election
If the Town Council determines that an annexation election is required or
that additional terms and conditions should be imposed upon the area
proposed to be annexed, an election shall be called to determine whether
a majority of the qualified electors approve the .annexation and any
related terms and conditions. Any landowner owning land in the area
proposed to be annexed may vote, irrespective of whether he or she is a
qualified elector.
The Town of Vail shall petition the district court to hold an annexation
election. The district court will appoint election commissioners to conduct
an election of all the qualified electors and landowners.
If a majority of the votes cast are against annexation or the vote is tied,
the court shall order that all annexation proceedings to date are void and
the Town of Vail shall proceed no further with annexation proceedings.
If a majority of the votes cast are for annexation, the court shall order that
said area may be annexed into the Town of Vail by ordinance and the
Town may impose any terms and conditions approved in the election.
All costs and expenses associated with an annexation election shall be
paid by the Town of Vail.

RESOLUTION NO. 13
Series 2006
A RESOLUTION BY THE TOWN OF VAIL COUNCIL URGING VAILS VOTERS
TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES AND THEN OPPOSE BALLOT ISSUE NUMBER
38 IN THE NOVEMBER 7, 2006 ELECTION.
WHEREAS, the Colorado Secretary of State certified Ballot Issue Number 38 on December
6, 2005; and
WHEREAS, this dramatic proposal would substantially change the historical referendum
process in Colorado; and
WHEREAS, among other things this amendment would expand the referendum powers
towards all local governments including "all enterprise authorities and other governmental entities"
and;
WHEREAS, these enterprises and other governmental entities would be seriously and
detrimentally impacted by such referendum; and
WHEREAS, proposals similar to Amendment 38 have twice before been rejected by the
Colorado voters in both 1994 and 1996 by substantial margins; and
WHEREAS, the proposal is not clearly written and creates with virtually every line of the
proposal numerous practical and legal interpretation questions; and
WHEREAS, strictest compliance is required against hundreds of governmental districts
which would create a substantial cost to the State even if only complaint based enforcement occurs;
and
WHEREAS, this ballot item would overrule any conflicting State constitution provision, home
rule Town charter and all other state and local !aws; and
WHEREAS, the procedures set forth present an unfair playing field in that the Plaintiffs can
.recover their attorney's fees but governmental entities have practically no chance of recovering
taxpayers dollars spent on frivolous compliance actions; and
WHEREAS, such broad initiative and referendum right would seriously disruptthe operations
of government; and
WHEREAS, Council would be forced to delay local laws from going into effect before a 91
day waiting period had passed; and
WHEREAS, the measure purports to prohibit any future ballot issue rejected by the voters if
the future issue is wholly'or mostly similar to the rejected ballot item; and
WHEREAS, Amendment 38 mandates taxpayer financed political advertising in the form of
up to one thousand word statement, for petition proponents. Opponents have not such right under
this ballot item.
WHEREAS, resulting litigation from the numerous legal challenges caused by Ballot Item 38
will create a serious legal burden forthe Colorado Supreme Court, state and local government; and
Resolution No. 13, Series 2006
WHEREAS, verification of signature protections would deteriorate by the new procedure
proposed by Ballot Item 38; and
WHEREAS, this Ballot Item would severely and negatively impact the operations of Vail.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF Vail,
COLORADO as follows:
Section 1. The Town Council hereby urges citizens to educate themselves on Ballot Issue
Number 38.

A RESOLUTION IN OPPOSITION TO THE 2006 BALLOT ISSUE KNOWN AS "TERM
LIMITS FOR SUPREME COURT AND COURT OF APPEALS JUDGES," AMENDMENT 40
TO THE COLORADO CONSTITUTION,. THAT WOULD POLITICIZE THE APPELLATE
COURTS AND ADVERSELY IMPACT THE JUDICIAL PROCESS
WHEREAS, an initiated constitutiona{ amendment, Amendment 40 to the Colorado
Constitution, has been certified for consideration by the voters of the state of Colorado at the regular
election to be held on November 7, 2006; and
WHEREAS, Amendment 40 would cause all appellate court judges to be up for reelection at
the general election in 2007 but only if those judges have not then served ten years in office; and
WHEREAS, the effect of Amendment 40 would be to remove from office next year five
supreme court justices and seven court of appeals judges; and
WHEREAS, the effect of Amendment 40 would be to limit the independence of the judiciary
and to politicize their appointment by placing a limit of ten years on the service of any appellate judge,
thereby empowering the governor with the appointment of a majority of the appellate judges after each
general election; and
WHEREAS, the further effect of Amendment 40 would be to deprive this state of the wisdom
and experience of our sitting appellate judges and substitute an-the-job training after each appointment; and
WHEREAS, the further effect of Amendment 40 would be to discourage the most qualified
trial judges and attorneys from applying for appointment to the appellate bench; and
WHEREAS, the further effect of Amendment 40 would be to cause newcomers to the
appellate courts to be reviewing the decisions of seasoned trial judges, for whom no term limits are
proposed; and
WHEREAS, no other state has placed term limits on the judiciary; and
WHEREAS, the best interests of the Town of Vail and its citizens will not be served by the
attack on the independence and competence of the judiciary contained in Amendment 40.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE TOWN COUNCIL. OF THE TOWN OF
VAIL, COLORADO as follows:
1. The Council opposes term limits for appellate judges and Amendment 40 on the
ballot for the November 7, 2006, general election.
