75 South Frontage Road
Vail, Colorado 81657
Dear Lorelei:
I'm writing you to express my interest in and present my qualifications for service as a
member of the Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC).
My wife and I have been property owners in Vail since 1995 and full-time residents since
2002. I have also owned and operated a business. in Vail since 2002.
Since 1973, I have been involved in brand development working with a mix of large and
small, local and national firms on both the client and ad agency sides of the business and
have contributed to the success of more than 30 brands ranging from large real estate
developers (Phillip Morris' Mission Viejo Corporation) to serving as a VP Marketing
with Pulte Home Corporation among other related industries.
I have also served as a member of the Board of Directors of the Madison Hill community
in Denver's Cherry Creek North neighborhood from 1993 - 2002 and the Board of
Directors of the Mountain Meadows community in East Vail from September 2002 to
February 2007.
My resume is attached to provide you with a quick summary of my business background.
I believe my three and a half decades of experience in brand development and the
commitment we have made as a family to Vail (as you know, my wife, Kelli McDonald
is your new Economic Development Manager), will provide the PEC and the town with a
knowledgeable, concerned, analytical and outwardly-focused point of view.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

Dear Town Council,
I would like to be considered for appointment to the Design Review Board.
I have been a resident of Vail for nearly 7 years and am a licensed architect, owning my own firm for
the past year and a half with an office in East Vail.
Having been, and continuing to be, a "consumer" of the Town's entitlement process, I have a
thorough understanding of the Town Code in general and the Design Review Guidelines in
particular.
I am excited about Vail's renaissance and feel my experience will be invaluable in preserving and
enhancing the essence of the community and arriving at fair, equitable and respectful decisions in all
matters brought before the Board.
Thank you for your consideration.

RE: Appointment to the Design Review Board
Town Council Members
FRITZLEN PIERCE ARCHITECTS
VAIL, COLORADO
I would request that you permit me to continue my service to this community as
a member of the Design Review Board. I am currently a member of the Planning and
Environmental Commission and am pleased to remain so if the Council finds suitable
applicants for openings on the Design Review Board. I have served on the Design
Review Board for more than a decade and fee! that the efforts of the Design Review
Board have contributed significantly to the success of Vail.
I am familiar with most of the Town's zoning regulations through my
involvement with the Planning and Environmental Commission and Design Review Board
and the daily operation of my architectural business.
In addition to my service as a Board Member, I was employed by the Town of Vail
as the Design Review Board Administrator when the Design Review process was initiated
in the Town of Vail in the 1970's and I also served as Chief Building Official of the Town
of Vail from 1976 to 1978.

Date: 3/12/2007 11:05 AM
Subject: Re: Design Review Board
Thank you for your reply. The reason you did not find my voter registration is that my legal name is Mildred J.
Raiola, I'm sorry I didn't remember to mention that.:) Following is my revised letter of interest signed with my
legal name. Thank you, & please let me know if you need anything else.
I am writing to express my interest in serving on the Design Review Board. I understand and am able to meet
the obligations and time commitment, as I am aself-employed with a flexible work schedule. I have lived in Vail
since 2000 and in Edwards since 1984. I recently built a home in Vail and so have an understanding and
appreciation of the mission of the Planning Department.
My professional background is in law enforcement, where I worked as a police officer (Orange County, CA.1983-
1984 and Town of Vail 1985-1987), then as a probation officer for Eagle County (1988-2001). Currently, I stay
active in the field by conducting statewide training for the CO. Division of Criminal Justice on a part-time basis,
but my main career focus is as a real estate broker. I have been licensed since 1991 and currently operate my
own brokerage, My Mountain Realtor.
It's not often that my diverse professional experiences seem to blend, but my knowledge of local real estate and
my ability to maintain objectivity when dealing with various people and circumstances would suit me well to be
a member of the Design Review Board.
Please contact me if you need. additional information or references. Thank you for your consideration.

Dear Mr. Raiola, I am in receipt of your email below. I have attached a copy of the public notice for the
Design Review Board and the qualifications necessary. I contacted Eagle County and you are not a
registered voter in Vail, and therefore, do not qualify to apply to be a board member at this time. Please
contact me if you have any further questions.
Please resubmit your letter of interest for this or any other board that may be of interest to you in the
Town of Vail once you have met the qualifications. Thank you very much for your interest.

Art in Public Places
75 S. Frontage Rd.
Vail, CO 81657
Ms. Donaldson:
As an applicant for the Art in Public Places Board, I believe I am most qualified for this position.
I would bring exceptional communication skills, a positive attitude and a passion for the arts.
After traveling, living and working with individuals from all over the country in AmeriCorps
*National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC), I have come to realize the essential
communication skills I gained. From personal experience, I know that attitude is contagious.
With my attitude it will provide a positive reflection throughout the entire working environment.
I set my standards high, and I commit myself to getting the job done in a manner that will reflect
onto others. "Each of us has a spark of,life inside us, and we must set off that spark in one
another." -Kenny Ausubel
After receiving a minor in Fine Arts, Photography, I have continued to expand my interests in art
by presenting the Town of Vail the, "Bike Racks project". As I have seen the impact this project
had on my hometown, I felt it necessary to increase community art awareness for a useful cause.
While at Vail Valley Medical Center, I have been involved with implementing the Arts in
Healing program. This program is essential in alleviating patient and staff stress levels by
implementing musical performances and visual. arts. As my appreciation and passion for art may
have begun by the snap of a disposable camera when I was 7 years old, it has continued to grow
into who I am as a person. "Each day is like a work of art that is yet to be designed. Like an
empty canvas, waiting for the dreams that fill our minds. Our talents and our strengths are like
the .colors we can use; to paint the pictures of our life in any way we choose." -Unknown
I am grateful for your consideration to be a part of the Art in Public Places Board. I assure you I
have the necessary qualifications to fulfill this position and I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
~~'_ 'l',~.,~.

RE: AIPP Application
Dear Lorelei,
Please accept this letter as my application to reapply for a position on the AIPP Board. I have
enjoyed working with the members of the board and seeing the increase in the number of
projects completed over the last three years. We have also seen growth in the annual budget and
the number of potential projects for the coming few years. I have enjoyed learning more about
art and sculpture and the new artists as we select them for new projects and sites.
I learned to love art and sculpture when I lived in Europe for two years. At university I studied
Architecture and that continued to enrich my art education.
I have worked as a Partner with Snowdon and Hopkins Architects for the last thirty years. I was
on the PEC from 1985 to 1989. My resume is included with this letter.
I would enjoy continuing to work with the AIPP board and hope to see even more successful
projects completed.

Attention: Lorelei Donaldson

RE: Art in Public Places
Dear Town Council:
As a resident and Director of Masters Gallery in the Town of Vail, I would like to submit this
letter of interest for the position on the Town of Vail Arts in Public Places.
I have resided in Eagle County since 1994, and as of three years ago, my husband and I made a
conscious decision to live in Vail and make it our permanent home. In the last three years I have
attended all of the Meadow Drive construction meetings, became Vice President of the Meadow
Drive Business Partnership, a member of the construction mitigation committee as well as Vail's
first Economic Council. I feel that I have taken ownership of my community through
participation.
As gallery director, I supervise staff, manage a budget, keep the advertising fresh and up to
date, coordinate gallery events showcasing our world class artists, and partner with Bravo and
The Symposium to bring special events to enrich our community.
As a participating business here in Vail, we also give to various charities and fundraisers to help
improve the quality of life for others here in Vail.
I feel with my strong business sense and expertise in the art world, I know that I would be an
asset to this committee. I thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

Dear AIPP Board Members-
I respectfully submit for your consideration my application to
fill one of the current AIPP Board vacancies. Since 2005 I've been a
managing partner in the Vail International Gallery, a relatively new
gallery located on Meadow Drive in Vail. Before starting my own
business I worked at Vail Fine Art Gallery in Crossroads for ten years
(1995- 2005). My interest in art is wide-ranging and includes diverse
genre, media, and periods well beyond the range of what is shown in
my gallery or considered commercially viable. As a board member I
would strive for objectivity and fairness in all of my decisions while
keeping in mind the goal of securing Vail a lasting artistic legacy.
In 1990 I moved to the area immediately following college with
plans like so many others to ski for a year or two before moving on.
Seventeen years later, my wife Maria and I now share our town-
home on Meadow Ridge Road with our two daughters Marina and
Silvia. I hope you agree that my desire to serve on the AIPP board is
a natural outgrowth of my obvious interest in art and in the
betterment of Vail.
Sincerely,
Marc E. LeVarn, President

Dear Ms Donaldson,
I have enjoyed serving on the Art in Public Places Board for the past three years and
would like to hopefully continue for another three year term. The AIPP has truly started
to hit its stride with public and private development in the town. I have great love for this
valley and look forward to seeing this great progressive community blossom with respect
to Public Art over the next few years.
I look forward to continued work on the summer of sculpture temporary art program
along with the Ritz Residences and Vail's Front Door projects along with all that is on
the AIPP's plate now and in the future. I believe that the board along with the hard work
of Leslie Fordham is becoming a serious art board that will be a force in sculpting Vail's
future.
Thank you for you consideration.
Sincerely,

Questions for Prospective AIPP Board Members
1. The board meets on the first Monday of each month. Board
members are expected to miss no more than 2 meetings per
year. Board members also attend other meetings and serve
on committees. Can you make the time commitment?
2. The Town Council recently adopted a resolution charging
a $1000 fee to those that wish to place artwork on town
property. Do you agree with this policy.
3. Fundraising is becoming increasingly important to AIPP.
How can you help?
4. The arts can be a strong economic driver. Art in Public
Places aims to stimulate cultural tourism and elevate the role
of the visual arts in Vail.
Do you support this vision?
5. AIPP Guidelines state that a specific objective of the
program is to: develop a diverse, high quality public art
collection. The overall program shall strive for diversity in
style, scale, media and artists. Exploratory types of work as
well as established art forms shall be encouraged. Is
diversity an objective you can support?

MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Council
FROM: George Ruther and Nina Timm
DATE: Apri13, 2007
SUBJECT: Ordinance 7, Series of 2007 -Commercial Linkage, Ordinance 8, Series of
2007 - Inclusionary Zoning, Ordinance 9, Series of 2007 -Repealing and
Re-Enacting Chapter 12-13 Employee Housing, Vail Town Code and
Resolution 6, Series of 2007 -Establishing the 2007 Fee-in-Lieu Payment
I. Introduction
At the March 13, 2007 Vail Town Council meeting Ordinance 7, Series of 2007 -
Commercial L inkage, Ordinance 8, Series of 2007 - Inclusionary Z oning, and
Ordinance 9, Series of 2007 -Repealing and Re-Enacting Chapter 12-13
Employee Housing, Vail Town Code were read and approved on first reading.
Additionally at the meeting, Resolution 6, .Series of 2007 -establishing the 2007
Fee-in-Lieu Payment was read and failed.
In the motions that were made and approved regarding Ordinances 7 and 8
specific changes were requested for second reading. The ordinances presented for
second reading reflect the changes requested. The changes are further outlined
and discussed in this staff memorandum.
II. Changes Reflected in Ordinances 7 and 8, Series of 2007
A. Removal of conversion credits
A conversion credit provision is no longer contained in the ordinances. At
first reading there were provisions that provided developers an employee
credit when converting from commercial uses to residential uses and vice
versa. As was discussed, unless a developer actually provides deed
restricted employee housing a conversion credit no longer exists in the
ordinances.
B. Change in use
Commercial linkage no longer applies to a change in commercial uses
except in the instance where new. square feet are constructed. Commercial
linkage will only be applied to the new square feet constructed.
C. Equity in the unit size requirements for commercial linkage and
inclusionary zoning
At first reading the square feet requirements per employee were 350 sq ft
per employee for commercial linkage and 550 sq ft per employee for
inclusionary zoning. The square feet difference was specifically related to
conversion credits. As conversion credits are no longer being applied the
square feet per employee is now 350 sq ft per employee in each ordinance.
D. Provision of dormitory style units as a means of mitigation
The p rovision o f do rmitory s tyle unit s a re o my a llowed if a de veloper
receives approval from either the PEC or the Vail Town Council. This
will allow developers to request dormitory style units if they believe that
this type of unit will best meet the employee's housing need, but the PEC
and Town Council will have the ability to ensure that not all employee
housing is configured as dormitory units.
III. Changes Reflected in Resolution 6, Series of 2007
At the March 13, 2007 Town Council meeting Resolution 6, Series of 2007
reflected o f ee-in-lieu p ayment o f $178, 695 p er e mployee a nd $325 p er s q f t.
This fee was targeted at atwo-person household. earning 100% of Area Median
Income (AMI) and an administrative fee of 15%.
The revised recommended fee-in-lieu. in payment is $131,385 per employee and
$236.65 per sq ft. The recommendation is based on a .target of two-person
households earning 120% of AMI. The administration fee has been reduced to a
flat rate of $3,000 per employee and $3.65 per sq ft. Staff believes that the
revised fees should cover the administrative costs the Town will incur.
The Average Square Feet of Units and the 2006 Median Price per Square Foott
was held constant. Without an abundance of land to build new units on, staff
believes that the money collected as afee-in-lieu of .developers providing
employee housing, the Town will be "buying down" existing non-deed restricted
units in the Town of Vail. The recommended fee-in-lieu will allow the Town to
have adequate funds to buy down, deed restrict and resell or rent units at a rate
affordable to local employees.
IV. Changes Reflected in Ordinance 9, Series of 2007
The only change from first reading to second reading is the addition of Section
12-13-2(c) which states:
2
"This Chapter shall not apply to any EHU constructed on
or after May 1, 2007 in any zone district that is subject to the
requirements of Chapter 23 or 24 of this Title. "
V. Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approving Ordinances 7, 8, and 9 Series of 2007 upon
second reading. Additionally, staff recommends passing Resolution 6,
Series of 2007.

area for an eating and drinking establishment, the equation would be as
follows:
((2, 500 square feet _ 1, 000 square feef) x (6.75)) = 16.875
new employees generated
16.875 new employees generated x 20% = 3.375 employees
