Direct AIPP to return to the Town Council for approval of specific programs that will be included in the art series. BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Willows, an SDD, has been required to mitigate the impact of development by providing public art within or close to their building. The Town Council set the public art obligation at $70,000. The developer partially satisfied the requirement with a contribution to help fund a new fountain for Seibert Circle. This reduced the public art obligation to $50,000. Triumph Development believes that the community would benefit if the remaining funds were used for an art series that would take place over the course of a year. Cultural arts organizations often offer lecture or film series.. A Vail art series could include lectures about art, workshops, art exhibitions, demonstrations, films or an artist in residence- program. Art in Public Places would be responsible for developing and implementing the art series. If the concept is approved by the Town Council, AIPP plans to conduct a study in which focus groups will be asked for ideas and recommendations. To insure the success of the program Triumph Development will donate an additional $50,000 to Art in Public Places for the art series. The program would be named the Triumph Art Series. Art in Public Places Recommendation: Art in Public Places board members are in favor of initiating a public art series and believe that. use of funds for this purpose will provide a benefit equal to building public art on the development site. 8.

"V1le are asking for approval to enter into a contract with Gillig to purchase this bus." Moffet moved to authorize town staff to enter into the contract with Gordon seconding. Scholl clarified the bus will be delivered in 11 months. Future funding of hybrid buses was discussed as grant monies may be diminishing. During a pause for public input, Sara Will asked if the buses would provide an internal or an external wheelchair lift.

Vail Town Council Chambers The regular meeting of the Vail Town Council was called to order at approximately 6:00 P.M. by Mayor Rod Slifer. Members present: Rod Slifer, Mayor Greg Moffet Kim Newbury Mark Gordon Kent Logan Farrow Hitt, Mayor Pro-Tem Not present: Kevin Foley Staff Members: Stan Zemler, Town Manager Matt Mire, Town Attorney Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation.

The third item on the agenda was the Town Manager's Report. • Bighorn Park Update. Landscape Architect Gregg Barrie reported the Public Works Department has reopened the Bighorn Park playground as of June 18. The play area has been under construction since September. The redesigned play area includes artistic log "bloom" structures constructed of beetle-killed lodge pole pine trees. There are multiple slides and custom climbers as well as several "spinners". The renovation budget was $346,000. Bighorn Park is also the location for the Art in Public Places "Community Stone" project. The five foot boulder is engraved with the handprints of local children. The handprints were collected from schools and daycare centers throughout Vail in 2006.There will be an official dedication at the July 12 Bighorn Park Neighborhood Picnic. • Update on Loading and Delivery. Zemler emphasized the issue of loading and delivery is a town-wide policy and the decision to evolve to dispersed loading and delivery in Vail has been underway for several decades. The goal of the system is to provide a safe pedestrian environment for guests and employees and reduce noise and air pollution and the unsightliness of large delivery vehicles in the town's commercial core. This policy has resulted in the development of a coordinated loading and delivery network. One Willow Bridge, the Arrabelle at Vail Square, Vail Plaza Hotel & Club, Solaris and Vail's Front Door project all have shared public use delivery facilities built into them. With the completion or near. completion of these projects, the time to develop an implementation plan has arrived, Zemler said. He then recommended forming a working group to assist in the development of an implementation strategy. The group would consist of: 2 Town Council members, 1 representative from the Vail Chamber & Business Association; 1 representative from the Vail Valley Partnership; 1 resident representative; 2 retail representatives; 2 restaurant representatives; 2 lodging representatives; and 2 delivery vendor representatives. The representatives would be selected by their respective peers. The group would then be charged with developing several options to be considered by Council. The .options would include utilization of the new loading and delivery berths, consideration of costs and other impacts, and the identification of any equipment and or staffing needs. Council directed Zemler to move forward with next steps, which includes a community meeting at 1 p.m. June 26 in the Vail Town Council Chambers to continue the discussions. The fourth item on the agenda was a LionsHead Parking Structure Redevelopment Update. Zemler announced he had been in the process of hosting two days of comprehensive meetings with all parties involved in the LionsHead parking structure redevelopment negotiations. He said staff would return on July 17 (most likely in executive sessions with an all-inclusive update. Council will also be provided with a draft redevelopment agreement. In regard to installation of the Seibert Circle fountain feature, Public Works Director Greg Hall reported the town continues to work with WET Design on a few remaining technical issues. The fifth item on the agenda was Vail Whitewater Park Recreational Enhancements. 2 Landscape Architect Gregg Barrie said that based on the Council recommendations from the June 5 work session, staff is requesting the following: 1. Approve a project budget of $ 376,000 for the construction of Alternative B AND 2. Authorize the Town Manager to enter into an agreement with Ted Siepel Construction, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $ 337,100 for the construction of the Vail Whitewater Park Enhancements During 2006, staff presented the concept of an adjustable Whitewater feature to Council. Each time the project was presented, design and pricing were discussed, and the question was asked whether to continue with the project.. In August, Council overturned a PEC denial of the proposal. In March 2007, the town received three bids for the construction of the project. Working with the lowest bidder, alternatives for Council consideration. The alternatives were presented at the June 5 work session. The recommendation from Council was to return at the next meeting for approval of Alternative B. Staff reported this is the only option for making any significant improvement to the Vail Whitewater Park. If Council is inclined to fund the project, staff recommended constructing Alternative B, increasing the project budget by $292,000 to a total of $376,000, and entering into a contract with Ted Siepel .Construction, Inc. to construct the project. Moffet moved to approve the .project with Newbury seconding. The motion passed unanimously, 6-0. The sixth item on the agenda was to discuss the proposed redevelopment of the Timber Ridge Employee Housing project, located at 1280 North Frontage Road with the Vail Town Council. Housing Coordinator Nina Timm and Zemler reiterated what had been discussed with Council on June 5 regarding the redevelopment of Timber Ridge. Council expressed general satisfaction with the proposed mix of 312 rental units and 167 for-sale units on the property. Council said it wished to encourage the developer to reconsider the unit sizes on the for-sale units and create more one- and two-bedroom for-sale units. Town Council did not believe the location and proposed density would appeal to families in Eagle County. Timm emphasized the developer would pertorm further market research to ensure market demand exists. Recognizing Council has not closely studied the rental market, it was suggested a range of rental units from studios, one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom units. There was unanimous agreement from the Council members present that all units, for-sale and rental, should be deed restricted. There was not significant discussion regarding the type(s) of deed restrictions that should be put in place. The Vail Local Housing Authority (VLHA) suggested the town and the developer evaluate the viability of providing a land lease to the developer rather than Fee Title to the property. The town historically has had a policy of not selling land. The VLHA believes that over the -ong term this will benefit the town in multiple ways. When the term of the land lease expires .the town will be involved in future uses of the housing. The town wilt have the ability to adapt to changing market forces. Additionally, if the courts take a more conservative view on long-term deed restrictions the town would not be at risk of losing the desired use of the property. The Council members present expressed a preference to see along-term land lease provided to the developer rather than sale of the property. There were no public comments following the discussion. The seventh item on the agenda was a Discussion of Council Out of Cycle Contribution Requests for 2007.Budget Manager Kathleen Halloran explained the purpose of the mid- year review is to provide an opportunity for organizations that have newly identified projects or unforeseen changes to their budgets to come forward all at the same time. Council evaluates the various proposals based on their direct benefit to the entire community of Vail, fulfillment of the town's mission, and how this contribution will affect the resort community's future health. The town received four requests: A. Colorado Ski Museum The Ski Museum requested a total $142,000 cash contribution: $69,500 for interior display lighting renovations; $30,000 for a new interior exhibit design; $15,000 for a Denver International Airport (DIA) exhibit to be located in Concourse A; $18,000 to help fund the construction of an exterior building renovation; and $10,000 to help fund a Museum Theater Room. Staff recommended the Ski Museum approach the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council (VLMDAC) for the $15,000 of marketing/advertising for the DIA exhibit. Staff supported the exterior renovation request for $18,000, but recommended funding be conditional on the results of DRB requirements. Staff recommended the remaining items be included in a request for 2008 funding. B. Radio-Free Minturn Radio-Free Minturn requested a total of $5,000 cash contribution ($3,000 to install a local emergency alert system and $2,000 for operating support). Staff supported the funding request. The local emergency alert system will provide immediate notification of Local emergencies through an interruption of station programming. The Town of Vail wrote a letter of support to Eagle County for this program on behalf of Radio-Free Minturn as well. Unfortunately, the County did not support the project. The request for operations support appears reasonable based on the Radio's financial outlook, according to a town staff evaluation. C. Vail Pioneer Reunion Vail Pioneer Reunion requested a cash contribution of $1,500 and an in-kind contribution of $3,500 for one day at Dobson (September 22). Any profit from the event will be donated to local charities. For example, the Pioneer Reunion held five years ago donated $8,000 to the Vail Memorial Park. Staff recommended the in-kind contribution, contingent upon availability at Dobson /approval from the Vail Recreation District. However, Vail Pioneer Reunion will be responsible for hard costs related to the event at Dobson. Staff does not recommend the cash contribution because as noted in the application, proceeds will go to local charities (the town has a process for contributing to charities). Staff is also concerned about setting a precedent regarding contributions to private events and/or groups convening in Vail. D. Vail Valley Foundation The Vail Valley Foundation requested $250,000 of funding to help cover a pledge shortfall of $2 million dollars related to the $10 million dollar reconstruction of the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater in 2001. Staff recommended funding as requested from the Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund. The Town of Vail contributed $300,000 toward the $10 million dollar project at the time of reconstruction. If the current request is also funded, the town's total contribution to the reconstruction will represent only 5.5% of the overall total cost. Moffet moved to approve the staff recommendations with Hitt seconding. Gordon asked if there was a way to assist the Ski Museum with fundraising. Newbury encouraged the VLMDAC to approve the funding request. The motion passed unanimously, 6-0. 4 The eighth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 17, Series of 2007, an ordinance amending the Official Zoning Map for the Town of Vail in accordance with Tstle 12, Zoning Regulations, Chapter 5, Zoning Map; Rezoning Lots C1 - C5, Lions Ridge 1 Filing from Special Development District No. 10 (Timber Ridge Village Apartments) to Housing (H) district.

Upon consideration of the request, the Commission approved (7-0-0) a motion recommending approval of the rezoning request to Council. Moffet clarified the action- represented the removal of "a whole bunch" of development restrictions and putting those into the hands of the PEC. Moffet then expressed concern over. off-street parking requirements (they were too onerous). Moffet moved to approve the ordinance with Newbury seconding. Gordon recommended a convenience store be included in the project. The motion passed unanimously, 6-0.

Upon consideration of the .request, the Commission unanimously approved a motion recommending approval with a condition of the rezoning request to the Vail Town Council. Moffet moved to approve the ordinance with Gordon seconding. The motion passed unanimously, 6-0. The tenth item on the agenda was the second reading of Ordinance No. 16, Series 2007, An Ordinance to Prohibit the Possession, Sale or Use of Fireworks within the Town of Vail. Police Chief Dwight Henninger stated that pursuant to C.R.S. §12-28-107, the town is authorized to adopt an ordinance establishing prohibitions upon the sale, use, and possession of fireworks, including "permissible fireworks" as defined in C.R.S. § 12-28-101, within the corporate limits of the town. Ordinance No. 16 prohibits "fireworks" that are already currently prohibited by Colorado state statute and will allow the town to more effectively prosecute these types of violations in the Town of Vail Municipal Court. Moffet moved to approve the ordinance with Newbury seconding. The motion passed unanimously, 6-0. The eleventh item on the agenda was Adjournment.

The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by the Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal. The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to release of a full building permit, requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy, or a final certificate of occupancy; 1. The Developer shall submit a comprehensive sign program for review and approval by the Design Review Board, prior to requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy, or a final certificate of occupancy. 2. The Developer shall be assessed a traffic impact fee of $6,500 per net trip increase in p.m. traffic. The traffic and trip generation report prepared by Fox Page 2 Higgins Transportation Group dated June 2007, that specifically addresses the change in number of condominium units from 75 to 77, states that the net peak increase is 81 trips, 13 more trips than in the original approved traffic study dated November 2005. Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works Department will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full building permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that will lease the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the trip generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the number of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study. This impact fee shall not be offset by any public improvements and shall be paid prior to requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy. 3. The Developer shall post a bond to provide financial security for 125% of the total cost of the required off-site public improvements. The bond shall be in place with the Town prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy. This includes but is not limited. to the proposed. streetscape improvements. 4. The Developer .shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said special development district shall be void. The Planning and Environmental Commission and Town Council shall review the special development district upon submittal of an application to reestablish the special development district following the procedures outlined in Section 12- 9A-4, Vail Town Code. 5. Employee Housing: Crossroads shall furnish .deed restricted employee housing sufficient to accommodate 22 occupan#s by executing appropriate restrictive covenant(s) on form(s) provided by the Town. Any dwelling unit(s) restricted shall conform to the following floor area requirements: a one- bedroom unit shall contain at least 550 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more than 2occupants; atwo-bedroom unit shall contain at least 850 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more than 3occupants; athree-bedroom unit shall contain at least 1,350 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more than 4 occupants; and afour-bedroom unit shall contain at least 1,500 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more that 5 occupants. The Town may approve minor variations in floor area when the overall intent of the floor area requirements is being met. Any deed restriction shall be for property located within the Town. Such deed restriction(s) shall be executed and provided to the Town for recording and restricted unit(s) shall be available for occupancy prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for the Crossroads Project or any phase thereof. Any deed restricted employee housing unit shall. comply with the standards and procedures established by the Town Zoning Regulations. 6. The approval of SDD No. 39, Crossroads, shall restrict the uses upon the plaza level tenant spaces to retail uses solely and shall not be utilized for professional offices, business offices, and studios. The second floor retail Page 3 space may be utilized for any allowable or conditional use as listed in the Commercial Service Center Zone District. No space noted as retail space on the Approved Development Plan shall be converted to a residential dwelling unit. Temporary real estate sales offices may be allowed on the plaza level of retail during the first two years following the issuance of a certificate of occupancy in order to allow effective sales of dwelling units on-site. Warren Campbell made a presentation per the staff memorandum. The Commissioners generally expressed support for the proposal and staff recommendation. Bill Pierce stated that typically he would have concerns about adding dormers to an already large and bulky building, however, he felt the proposed dormers may add some interest to an otherwise gigantic roof, and he is ok with this change. Dick Cleveland expressed his concern about additional bulk being added to the building with the proposed dormers. There was no public comment. 60 minutes 3. A request for a work session to discuss the development review applications necessary for the ~~ ~, review of the redevelopment of the properties known as Ever Vail (West Lionshead), located at 862, 923, 934, 953, and 1031 South Frontage Road West/Unplatted, and setting forth details in regards thereto. (PEC07-0019, 0020, 0021, 0022) Applicant: Vail Resorts Development Corporation, represented by Mauriello Planning Group LLC Planner: Warren Campbell ACTION: Table to July 9, 2007 MOTION: Viele SECOND: Kjesbo VOTE: 7-0-0 Warren Campbell gave a presentation per the staff memorandum Dominic Mauriello, representing Vail Resorts Development Company, introduced the members of the team that would be presenting at the hearing. Midge McCauley, marketing consultant to the applicant, made a presentation regarding retail demand and market overview. She detailed the types of retail and food and beverage opportunities for the project. It was discussed that the niche that Ever Vail would be going after would be the younger "savvy" guest. It was also discussed that the retail mix should include stores that would appeal to year-round residents in order for there to be year-round viability. The marketing study concluded that approximately 80,000 to 120,000 square feet of retail/commercial space should be included within Ever Vail. Dick Cleveland asked if Vail Resorts would retain ownership of the retail spaces within Ever Vail. Tom Miller, Vail Resorts Development Company, said that VRDC will own all of the commercial tenant space, and will require tenants to operate year-round. He also said that office uses will exist throughout the development; however, studies for office have not been completed. Dick Cleveland asked about loading and delivery and added that it will be important to have- a common loading and delivery system to avoid the problems we are trying to solve in Vail Village and Lionshead. Page 4 Tom Miller said that VRDC has hired a consultant for loading and delivery Jim Lamont asked whether Midge McCauley had reviewed a North West Council of Government's (NWCCOG) study that reviewed the impacts of second homeowners, as that study showed that second home owners had a greater impact on the economy than her study. Midge. McCauley responded that she had not and that it is likely that second homeowners may have more impact than her study, however, her study focused on Vail not the Valley as a whole Jim Lamont asked whether nightclubs would be included in the project. Midge McCauley responded that the project wants to have all commercial open during daytime business hours. Nightclubs may be part of the project, but would be part of a daytime operation like a restaurant. Tom Miller responded that nightclub owners who have been approached by Vail Resorts Development Company have said they are concerned about the Town's noise ordinance. Michael .Kurz, pointed out that there are several kinds of traffic. There is vehicular traffic and there is retail pedestrian traffic. Getting guests from Vail Village and Lionshead to Ever Vail will need to occur through pedestrian circulation design not vehicular traffic. Bill Jewitt asked how many potential retail spaces there would be within Ever Vail. Midge responded approximately 50-60 stores. He further asked if the conclusion from Arabelle and Ever Vail market studies were the same. Tom Miller stated that the results were a little different based upon the market goals they were going for, however, both studies resulted in the identification of approximately the same quantity of supportable area of retail and restaurant. Bill Jewitt expressed concern about the amount of commercial getting ready to come on line in the next 5 years with the projects currently entitled and under construction. He questioned if pedestrians would go to Ever Vail given that discussions in the past centered around concerns regarding distance. He concluded by stating that with approximately 60 retail spaces, Ever Vail will become a portal and not consistent with the original thinking that Ever Vail will not be competitive with Lionshead and Vail Village. Dick Cleveland expressed concern that the retail planned for Ever Vail is high end and in order to be successful there should be affordable stores for locals to ensure year round success. He also expressed concerned about the loss of a place like 8150. Bill Pierce expressed that he too was concerned about the loss of a night club in Vail. Both Commissioners pointed out that there was a live entertainment solution being constructed in Solaris; however, it would likely not be quite like 8150 was in the past. Tom Miller and Midge McCauley stated that high quality store, such as those suggested, did not necessarily equate to higher prices. The goal of the overall retail/commercial mix would be to provide a spectrum of price points to make the retail viable year round. Tom Miller gave a presentation of LEED .design and building "green". He stated in his presentation that several of the reasons Vail Resorts Development Company was interested in participating in the LEED program was their desire to be industry leaders, to catch up to some of the competition who were already building "green" buildings, and to appeal to the guest of today and the future who would make vacation choices based on environmental issues. Page 5 Steve Hartman, with Callison Architects, gave a presentation on the architectural and site plan impacts of building under LEED design. An example given was that the four sides of a building may look different in order to take advantage of things such as solar exposure and sustainable landscaping to reduce the need for irrigation. The use of local materials such as recycling of materials but limiting the amount of materials being transported long distances. Jim Lamont asked what role the Federal Government plays in the approval of the South Frontage Road West realignment. Dominic Mauriello explained the role of the Federal Government as it relates to the realignment has to do with the width of the proposed right-of-way for the relocated South Frontage Road West and the "A-Line" location. It was explained that the "A-Line" is a line which the Federal Government uses to prohibit any development/encroachment past. It was pointed out that in this stretch of Frontage Road the "A-Line" was much further from the edge of the interstate right-of- way than in other locations in Town. Barbara Blundell, Director of Sales and Marketing for VRDC, wanted to address concerns from the Commission at a previous meeting regarding dilution of the Vail brand with what was being proposed in Ever Vail. She explained that the guests to Vail are very savvy and by doing environmental building and other aspects of Ever Vail they hope to market Vail into the future. 4.

There is plenty of parking along one side of the road and empty lots within 2 blocks of the park. Not only did your city NOT allow us to park in any of these designations but they wouldn\'t let a driver drop off players and all their gear. You had police making sure that no one stopped anywhere close to the park. Your city honestly expects visitors and players to park a long ways away and walk all that distance carrying vollyeballs, bags, chairs, coolers, etc!! This tournament was the 35th annual tournament. Are you telling us that in 35 years you can\'t figure out how to handle a few hundred players and spectators? There\'s no reason you shouldn\'t allow people to park in lots such as Golden Peak for events like this especially when they sit EMPTY!!! Or how about hiring someone to shuttle players back and forth! One person told me she had a cop coming up to her after she pulled over to let a bus pass by. She said there was no room for her and the bus to pass at the same time due to the cones your city put up. You want us to come to your city and stay in your hotels & condos, eat at your restaurants, drink at your bars and you treat visitors like this? Let\`s not mention all the noise the construction crews make starting early in the morning.

I have reviewed the e-mail sent to the Vail Chamber and Business Association. I truly regret any inconvenience caused during your visit to the town while participating in the King of the Mountain Volleyball Tournament. Please let me say there are very good reasons we do not authorize parking adjacent to the volleyball venue. Vail Valley Drive is a main traffic artery for those Vail persons residing in the golf course neighborhood. It is also a main access approach for emergency vehicles responding to that area. I believe Iast year a heart attack victim was transported from the venue. We are committed to keeping that artery open during special events. Our experience has shown if parking is authorized, even on one side of the street, the area becomes quickly clogged with vehicles. As stated in your e-mail, King of the Mountain Volleyball has been a fixture in Vail for many years. We work very closely with event promoterswho participate in formulating the event's parking plan. If you. refer to, "King of the Mountain Volleyball.com", helpful parking information and maps were provided to all event participants. Also, according to the promoter, frequent loudspeaker announcements were broadcast regarding prohibited parking on Vail Valley Drive. Additionally, the promoter expressed his appreciation for the support and patience demonstrated by police employees Regarding your reference to parking in the Gold Peak parking lot, I should point out the lot is not owned by the Town of Vail and, therefore, police employees could not authorized event parking in. that area. Please let me reiterate my regret regarding your unpleasant experience.
