ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve use of funds for
the purpose developer has requested. 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.

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.

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

• 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.

Tstle 12, Zoning Regulations, Chapter 5, Zoning Map; Rezoning Lots C1 - C5, Lions Ridge

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

included in the project. The motion passed unanimously, 6-0.
The ninth item on the agenda was the second reading of Ordinance No. 15, Series of
2007, an ordinance amending the Official Zoning Map for the Town of Vail in accordance
with Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Chapter 5, Zoning Map; Rezoning Lot 21, Buffehr Creek

Applicant: Crossroads East One, LLC and Crossroads West One, LLC, represented by Mauriello
Planning Group, LLC
Planner: Warren Campbell
ACTION: Recommendation of approval with condition(s)
MOTION: Kjesbo SECOND: Gunion VOTE: 5-1-0 (Cleveland
opposed)
CONDITION(S)

approval, outlining the responsibilities and requirements of the required offsite
improvements, as indicated on the proposed Approved Development Plan.
This agreement shall. include, but not be limited to, all streetscape
improvements along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, .public
access to the plaza for pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may
Page 1
include the establishment of an easement on the plaza and language in the
covenants and declarations for owners of property in the project regarding the
use of the plaza for special events, inclusion of the loading and delivery facility
in the overall loading and delivery system, payment of traffic impact fees and
credits given to offset fee, and details for funding public art.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a
building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building
permit);
1. The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall
section, architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review
and approval of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application
for a building permit.
2. The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan .for review
and approval. by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building
permit application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated
into the overall design of the structure and enclosed and visuaiiy screened
from public view.
3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado
Department of Transportation (CDOT) prior to submitting for a building permit.
Failure to receive the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road
per the Approved Development Plan will require the project to return through
the special development district review process.
4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail
Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail
Public Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an
application to the Town of Vail Community. Department for the issuance of a
building permit for this project.
5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety
radio communications system within the subterranean parking structure which
meets the specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The
specifications and details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review
and approval with the application for a building permit.
6. The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by

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.

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

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.

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.

Dear Deb:
I am referring your email to the Vail town council, town manager and chief
of police. While I am truly sorry that you had an unpleasant
experience while visiting our community, unfortunately, I have no
jurisdiction over parking or loading and delivery in Vail,
I trust that you will receive a satisfactory response and explanation
regarding your complaints. I also hope that you will reconsider your
decision and visit Vail again in the future. It is always our intent to make
our guests' experience a pleasant one and when we fall short,
we do our best to correct the situation.
Once again, I am sorry for your inconvenience and look forward to assisting
you in the future.

This is what they had to say
I\'d like to know why your city makes it so impossible for visitors to park.
Last weekend I was in Vail for the King of the Mountain volleyball
tournament. I was embarrassed for your city to witness the shameful way your
police force treated people. 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. Does this sound like away to promote your

friends about their experience in Vail? This isn\'t the first time we\'ve
gone through this either. I have no desire to come back to your city, Not

By way of introduction, nay name is Steve Wright and I am the Operations Commander
with the Town of Vail Police Department. 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. If you should
have further comment or questions, please feel free to contact me at 970-479-3433 or at
