MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: November 22, 2006
SUBJECT: Lionshead Parking Structure Request for Proposals
Staff: Stan Zemler and Russ Forrest
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of the evening meeting with the Vail Town Council (Council) is to:
1) Receive a presentation from the competing Lionshead parking structure
request for proposal (RFP) development teams and ask questions of them
regarding their proposals.
2) Provide staff with direction on additional information that would be helpful in
making a decision on this RFP process.
II. BACKGROUND
A. Goals
The Town of Vail (Town) owns and operates an 1,150 space parking structure
and an unimproved charter bus parking lot, located at 395 South Frontage Road
in Vail, Colorado (See Section 7 of RFP). This site is 6.3 acres in size and is
located in the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan area, one of two
pedestrian retail areas in Vail. In addition, this site is included in the Lionshead
Urban Renewal area.
A draft master plan for the parking structure was completed during the process of
considering a conference center; the Town identified at that time, the following
needs for the site:
• The existing parking structure needs both capital and operational
improvements to maintain its effectiveness in the future,
• The Town currently needs 400-500 additional public parking spaces to
minimize overflow parking on the Frontage Road. for 15 days per winter
season,
• Redevelopment of the parking structure should include retail development
on the south side of the parking structure as called for in the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan,
• Pedestrian access needs to be improved between the parking structure
and the Lionshead retail area, and
• Improve the Lionshead Information Center.
In the last year, private developers have approached the Town of Vail and
proposed redevelopment of the site to accommodate both public and private
uses. To ensure a fair and equitable process, the Vail Town Council directed
that a "Request for Proposals" be issued to solicit development proposals that
meet the project goals of the Town for this site.
The RFP seeks qualified developers who can develop the Lionshead parking
structure consistent with the project goals of this RFP stated below.
The following are project goals for any developer considering submitting a
proposal
A. Development proposals shall comply with the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan (See
http:!/www.vailgov.com/docs/dl forms/lionshead master plan 01 2006.pdf )
and be consistent with Lionshead Mixed Use 1 Zoning (See
http://www.sterlincgcodifiers.com/CO/Nail/for Title 12 in the Vail Town Code).
B. Development proposals consistent with the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan and the Lionshead Mixed Use 1 Zone District shall help pay for
the public improvements. A strong preference is given to uses that generate
"hot beds" such as accommodation units (hotels) and Employee Housing
Units. Parking generated by private development shall be provided and paid
for by the developer.
C. Meeting/event/conference facilities accessory to hotel and lodging uses.
D. The Town anticipates extensive improvements to the Lionshead parking
structure in the near future. Creation of a new public parking structure,. paid
for through the redevelopment of the site, should include a minimum of 1150
public parking spaces that would improve the operational performance of the
structure compared to current operation (See 2005 Walker Parking Study in
Attachment B). The Town is assuming that it would continue to own and
operate public parking in Lionshead.
E. Creation of new public parking in excess of the 1,150 existing spaces on the
site based on circulation viability.
F. Creation of a new Lionshead information center with public restrooms.
G. Redevelopment of the Lionshead Annex with consideration given to the
relocation of a Youth Recreation Center and the Colorado Mental Health
offices.
H. Improvement of the pedestrian, transit, and vehicular circulation between the
parking structure and the Lionshead retail mall.
I. Provide loading and delivery for uses. created on-site which can also be used
by adjacent Lionshead retail uses.
J. Improve hotel shuttle bus circulation which currently drops guests at the
southwest corner of the Lionshead parking structure. The Town is interested
in siting a Lionshead transit facility to accommodate 5 buses for regional bus
traffic. The parking structure area is one of the locations under consideration
for that use (See Draft Master Plan for Parking Structure).
K. Creation of a retail connection along the south side of the project site that is
consistent with the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan.
L. Frontage Road improvements consistent with the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan and acceptable to the Colorado Department of Transportation.
M. Other public amenities that would augment the vitality and economic impact
of the development.
N. Use of the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED Green Building Rating
System, or a comparable alternative, to guide project design.
Attachment A includes the Executive Summary for Both Teams. It should be
noted that proposed schedule changes are proposed below.
B. Projected Costs for Maintaining the Lionshead parking structure and other
associated improvements
The Lionshead parking structure was built in 1980 and is projected to have 25
years more of life before major reconstruction is required. However, significant
capital investments will be required to reach the 25 years. Necessary
improvements to the. Lionshead parking structure can be placed in the following
categories:
Structural/Capital Maintenance:
• Repair all the stairs and stairways: $350,000 due next couple of years
• Ongoing expansion joint work: $50,000/yr
• Top deck slab: re-topping within the next eight years: $2,500,000
• Salt penetration repairs: $150.,000 due next couple of years
• Water infiltration repairs: $250,000 within 5 years
• Painting/lighting/system maintenance: $150,000/yr
• Parking equipment replacement: now $300,000, also every 5-7 years,
will request for 2007
Operational: The current structure does not function well as designed:
• Install pay on foot stations: $200,000
• Provide another exit to East Lionshead Circle: $750,000
• .Convert the garage to one-way circulation and lose 100 spots: cost to
replace the 100 spots: $3,500,000
• Roadway improvements for better ingress/egress: $3,000,000
Code/regulatory: Required improvements to meet current codes will be
required with any enhancement or remodel.
• Elevator to meet ADA: $400,000 a piece
• Sprinkler and detection systems: $1,000,000
• Increase ventilation on certain levels: $350,000
• Egress and proper emergency access issues: $150,000
Enhancements: Keeping up with the customer expectations, matching the new
neighborhood and keeping the Vaii experience.
• Bathrooms: $500,000
• Information booth: $900,000
• Auxiliary building: $1,700,000
• Heated entry stairs: $1,000,000 verses $300,000
• Elevators: See above
• Streetscape: $1,000,000
• New heated streetscape entry/bus plaza: $3,000,000
Expansion: We have stated the need to expand the supply by 400 spaces.
• 400 new spaces: $12,000,000
Currently, some of the structural and capital maintenance issues are budgeted
over the next 5 years (*). Operational issues are not budgeted except the
possibility of roadway improvements using Tax Increment Financing (TIF) funds.
Enhancements are not budgeted except to use TIF funds for streetscape and
entry plaza.
The conference center, if approved, would have addressed all these issues with
the exception of the topping slab, one-way circulation, the information booth and
expanded capacity by only 250 spaces verses 400 spaces. The revised capital
budgets for 2007-2010 will need to reflect increased costs to take care of the
shortcomings.

COAgMISION ON SPECIAL EVENTS
MEMO:
To: Vail Town Council, Stan Zemiertt Judy Camp, Pam Brandmeyer
FY'~?rnl: 1. tri11~111~1~J~Jlon t'iil apeciai ive tv
Date: November 21, 2006
RE: Conceptual Allocation of 2007 CSE Funds per Council's Request
The CSE is scheduled to review responses to their RFP for 2007 events at the next CSE
meeting on Tuesday, November 28. Since the CSE has not yet determined specific allocations to
individual events, and since they do not wish to imply that a particular event is already promised
an identifiable allocation, it is not possible at this time to itemize specifically how the mailable
funds might be utilized. Please consider the following points as you are making your. decision:
- The CSE has already received requests for 2007 event funding totaling $1,243,465. If the
CSE funds onl the existing, proven events at 3% above what they received in 2006, total
direct event funds required would be $630,000.
- The CSE has already received 5 proposals for new events that meet their criteria, submitted
as part of the 2007 RFP process. These proposals total $253,000 and will be considered at the
CSE meeting on November 28, 2006.
- Independent survey and evaluation data from 8 selected events funded by the CSE in 2004
and 2005 shows that specii event iunclin~raviu'es a return for eJei y doiia; spent.
2005:
Incremental Spending: $17,022,817
Town-Wide ROI: $66.45
Sales Tax ROI: $2.99
2004:
Incremental Spending: $6,450,480
Town-Wide ROI: $18.94
Sales Tax ROI: $ .86
Note the dramatic increase from 2004 to 2005, as the events funded by the CSE were able to
grow dramatically with the assistance of additional sponsorship, and the selection and
funding criteria used by the CSE has been refined to maximize the return on the town's
contributions. Additionally, estimated ROI figures based on traditional multipliers provided
by individual event producers for 7 major events in 2006 show over $2,000,000 in direct
additional revenues to the Town of Vail.
- The theory that we can develop an event over three years of incrementally reduced funding
and then require the event to become self sufficient does not work in practice. Event
producers are often lured by other sponsors to relocate successful events- the CSE believes
we need to keep the events in which we have built an equity investment returning to Vail each
year"
Listed below is a sampling of issues affecting existing events, and the resulting pressures for
seeking increased funding from the CSE:
o The Farmers' Market has grown to be the largest event of its kind in the state of
Colorado and is requesting a significant increase in funding in 2407 because they can no
longer manage and operate the event with an all volunteer staff.
o The TEVA Mountain games are under pressure from their other sponsors to move the
event to a site with a larger population base.
o The Vail Film Festival is facing increased operational costs, in large part because the
construction activities within the Town are forcing them to utilize "makeshift" theaters,
where the increased cost of projectors, screens, etc. must be born by *he event budget
and/or additional transportation costs are incurred.
o Oktoberfest (the Town's longest running and most profitable event per dollar invested)
incurred a 50% reduction in revenues this year due to inclement weather. The event
producer will only continue to produce the event if it makes financial sense.
Some events, such as America Days and Holidays in Vail, are community based, and have little
or no ability to generate revenue, yet the community has expectations that these events continue
to provide an ever more exciting and high quality experience for our guests and residents.
Per the Town Council's request, the chart below shows how the CSE's 2007 budget is likely
to appear under 3 different funding scenarios.

The LionsHead Parking Garage Redevelopment
A New Wad to Park
Open~Hillwood 4240 Architecture, Inc
November 21, 2006
Goal: Physically replace the old garage and conceptually change the old
way to park!
The Open~Hillwood team has devised a new way to parkin its design for
the LionsHead parking garage replacement. The arrival, parking, transit,
drop-off and loading portions of our structure have never been meant to
merely replace the old parking garage. This development team set out
initially, and continues to believe today, that this critical location deserves
the best. This attitude leads ultimately to the reasons why the
Open~Hillwood design is more expensive and more complex than our
competitors' version. It is not simply a place to store cars. It is the reason
why Vail could achieve a new level of service for the visitor and local alike
with regard to approach, arrival and entry into this great town. A permanent
50 year plus world class parking facility.
IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THIS TEAM COULD EASILY "MATCH" THE
SIMPLE DESIGN STRATEGY OF ITS COMPETITION. SHOULD THE TOWN
DECIDE THAT A SIMPLE CAR STORAGE FACILITY 15 ALL THAT 15
REQUIRED AT THIS LOCATION, THE SWITCH TO A BASIC, NON-
INTEGRATED, NON-PROGRAMMED SYSTEM IS SIMPLE TO ACHIEVE.
.,
Existing Garage (General Characteristics):
• Queuing issues at peak use upon both entering and exiting =slow and
inefficient
• No hierarchy of movement leads to "stacking" problems as users take
the first available stall -usually closest to the entry =clogs up
quickly, same as competitors layout
• Short ramps lead to merge difficulties and long lines for exiting =over
20 minutes to exit in peak times, similar to competitor layout
• Confusing levels for pedestrian movement and location memory =
difficult, unfocused wayfinding
• Low ceilings, dripping drainage pipes, uneven puddled floors, old
graphic style and color, low lighting levels = time to repair or replace
Open~Hillwood schemes ALL OPTIONS (General Characteristics):
• Speed ramp distribution system allows for speed and clarity both in
and out; for all self parking users and for valet and carrier drivers as
well =10 minutes peak exiting time 100% improvement over
existing garage
• Anew, well designed, totally engineered parking strategy =state-of-
the-art, newest technologies
• Equal consideration of cars, busses and shuttles so that all users enjoy
the same level of luxury =everyone treated like a guest
• Accommodation and enjoyment for the local just trying to get to the
slopes and the shopping =140+ short term parking stalls next to
shopping and ski hill
• The provision of a "Grand Ha11 of Arrival" = full of light, air, people,
retail and the potential to become a signature space in this great
resort
• Loading and delivery for all aspects of the program =taken off the
streets and out of sight
• Turning commuters into pedestrians safely and quickly = to allow full
enjoyment of the new Lionshead village
• Clear signage and graphics, obvious movement lanes, user group
separation, understandable entry and exit directions, contemporary
payment systems =eliminating the frustration and creating a
pleasurable experience
r r
The specifics of the design (SELECTED OPTION 03):
• 1,877 total parking stalls on-site in the Option Three; segregated
into hotel valet, public skier or retail drop-off, short term retail user
area, day-long skier parking, but all usable and flexible for use in peak
periods.
• Option three provides 1,150 public stalls, on-site open to the public
on December O1, 2009. 8 months of construction time, 5 days-a-
week and less ski season mitigation requirements than previous
options.
• 400 Spaces always open to public at any point in construction.
• 5 times the ramp movement capacity of the existing garage
• 5 ECO bus /hotel shuttle transit stalls in the structure -out of the
weather, clean and organized to provide an enjoyable bus riding
experience and encourage the use of public transit. Central to the site
and a short walk to shopping and the ski hill.
• A cascading express ramp design free of conflict between drivers
and pedestrians, minimizes queuing and congestion and can be
switched from 2 in / 1 out to 1 in / 2 out during peak demands.
• Electronic monitoring of capacity and utilization taking the guess
work out of floor selection and stall availability.
• Over 140 short term retail oriented spaces dedicated to skier drop-
off at the am and pm peak periods
IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT WITH THE SELECTED OPTION NOW
PROPOSED, OUR RELIANCE UPON PERMANENT DE-WATERING IS NO
DIFFERENT THAN THAT NEEDED BY OUR COMPETITOR. THIS SCHEME
NO LONGER GOES DEEPER INTO THE WATER TABLE THAN THE
COMPETITOR.
IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED THAT MOST OF THE NEW CONSTRUCTION IN
VAIL, INCLUDING THE ARRABELLE, VAIL'S FRONT DOOR AND
FOUNDER'S PARK AND GARAGE, RELIES UPON MODERN DE-WATERING
TECHNOLOGY AND ALL ARE SUPPLIED WITH BACK UP GENERATOR
CAPACITY SO AS TO ASSURE THE FUNCTIONING OF THE PERMANENT DE-
WATERING SYSTEMS IN AN EMERGENCY. THIS STRUCTURE WOULD
RECEIVE THE SAME TECHNOLOGY AS THESE NEW PROJECTS IN TOWN.

Subject: Ford Park Bus Service
Hi Kevin,
I am just informing you about the DISMAL bus service to Ford Park, esp in
the morning hours. As you well know, many of those that park at Ford Park
are 'employees' and need to get into V V to go to their jobs. (some have to
carry their tools, etc so walking for many is not really an option).
I am talking about the bus schedule which is in effect from Nov 17, 2006 to
Dec 17, 2006.
It seems like every year the TOV is caught by surprise that the ski season
has started and that many employees that had parked in the Village Parking
Structure are now parking in Ford Park, by ne~;essity.
While the E Vail service is 'almost adequate' this early season in the am
(with the addition of a few extra buses in the am, 7:30,8:30,9:30 and
10:30am), the Ford Park situation is wholly inadquate.
The first bus in the am to arrive at Ford Park would be at aprox 6:35am (E.
Vail bus) arriving at the VTC at 6:40am.
The second bus would be at aprox 7:35am (E Vail bus-if it is not already
packed. If it is, then it just goes by) and arriving at the VTC at 7:40am.
At this point, if you have to be at work before Sam, you only choice would
be the 6:35am, the 7:35am pickup or walk, taxi etc. (1 hr increments)
The third bus would be at aprox 7:42am and it is the golf course bus and is
scheduled to arrive at the Transportation Center at 8:OOam (this bus
includes an 18 min tour through the golf course included at no additional
charge).
The fouth bus would be at approx 8:05am (E.Vail bus- if it is not already
packed. If it is ,then it just go by)
My suggestion would be to run a Ford Park bus in the am every 15 min from
6:15am to 8:15am.
Please help.

Thanks,
Buffalo
Let's keep Vail and the TOV #1 and not let the employees down.
After all, we really need them. :-)
