Improvements" for the Town of Vail Master Deed Restriction that
is currently in place at Vail Commons, Red Sandstone Creek,
North Trail Townhomes, Pitkin Creek Park # 5-F and Vail Heights
# 11. (15 min.)
BACKGROUND: The Town of Vail Master Deed Restriction for
Vail Commons, Red Sandstone Creek, North Trail Townhomes
and Pitkin Creek Park # 5-F and Vail Heights # 11 limits
appreciation of these units to a maximum of 3% simple interest
per year. Additionally, the recoupable Permitted Capital
Improvements are also limited. The deed restriction has
maintained the units as affordable to local employees. At this
point in time it is prudent to expand the recoupable Permitted
Capital Improvements to maintain the units at a desirable. level.
The goal of i;he suggested additional Permitted Capital
Improvements is not to further the resale value of an Owner's
home, but to provide some monetary relief if certain improvements
are made and ain Owner must sell their unit within afive-year
period.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
modifications, or deny Resolution 21, Series of 2007.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Vail

represented by Henry Pratt, Gwathmey Pratt Schultz Lindall
Architects, is requesting permission to proceed through the

the Solar Vail Employee Housing Project. (15 min.)
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
modifications, or deny the request to proceed through the
development review process.
BACKGROUND (RATIONALE: The Applicant is proposing to re~-
develop the Solar Vail property located at 501 North Frontage
Road West. During the preliminary review of this project, Staff
asked the Applicant to revise the plans to include improvements to
the grade and alignment of the existing access driveway for Solar
Vail to meet current Town standards. The existing access
driveway, located to the east of the Solar Vail building,
encroaches over the extreme south west corner of Tract A, an un-
platted parcel of land owned by the Town. Existing driveway
improvements impact approximately 600 square feet of Tract A.
Preliminary drawiings indicating the revised driveway alignment
and associated extents of disturbance on Tract A are forthcoming
for review during 'the Town Council work session. The Applicant
must obtain approval from the Vail Town Council (i.e. property
owner) before proceeding through the Town's development review
process for any improvements across or over Tract A.
STAFF RECOMMIENDATION: Staff recommends the Vail Town
Council approves the Applicant's request to proceed through the
development review process.

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with
modifications, or deny Resolution No. 22, Series of 2007.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: On March 22, 2006, the Town
Council agreed to the Crossroads Development Agreement which
addressed the many public aspects of the Solaris project. One of
those aspects was the management of the 81 excess parking
spaces in the subterranean garage which are a portion of the
public benefit to offset the deviations that were approved. The
Crossroads Development Agreement required that the applicant
return to the Town Council for review and approval of the parking
management plan prior to submitting for a building permit. This
request is being proposed to satisfy that requirement.
On September 18, 2007, the Town Council voted unanimously to
table this request to the October 2, 2007, public hearing.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Vail
Town Council approve Resolution No. 22, Series of 2007.

2. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council on a proposed major amendment
to Special Development District No. 4, Vail Cascade, pursuant to Article 12-9A, Special
Development District, Vail Town Code, to allow for an increase in the number of dwelling units,
located at 1310 Westhaven Drive/Vail Cascade Subdivision, and setting forth details in regard
thereto. (PEC07-0058)
Applicant: Vail Cascade Residences, LLC, represented by Mauriello Planning Group

ACTION: Recommendation of approval with condition(s)
MOTION: Pierce SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 6-0-0
Condition:
1) The Applicant shall submit an application for Design Review for any and all changes
to the exterior of the Cascade Residences building prior to submitting any application
for a building permit for the same.
Scot Hunn gave a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Commissioner Pierce asked a question regarding employee housing units and this project.
Allison Kent, Mauriello Planning Group, stated that because the applicant was not proposing any
new Gross Residential Floor Area (GRFA) with this application, the Town's inclusionary zoning
regulations did not apply; therefore, no mitigation was required at this time.
The Commissioners expressed their general support for the project.
There was no public input

30 minutes
3. A request for a work session on a proposed major amendment to Special Development District
No. 4, Vail Cascade, pursuant to Article 12-9A, Special Development District, Vail Town Code, to
allow for the development of a mixed use project on the property known as the Cornerstone site,
located at 1276 Westhaven Drive/Unplatted, Vail Cascade Subdivision, and setting forth details
in regard thereto. (PEC07-0055)
Applicant: L-O Westhaven ,Inc., represented by Rick Pylman, Pylman & Associates
Planner: Scot Hunn
ACTION: Tabled to November 26, 2007
MOTION: Kurz SECOND: Viele VOTE: 6-0-0
Commissioner Viele identified that he has performed some work, such as utility locates for this
project, however, he does believe he can act impartially on the proposed project and does not
see a conflict of interest.
Scot Hunn gave a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Rick Pylman, representing the applicant, gave a presentation regarding the history of the Vail
Cascade Special Development District and how this proposal compares to the previously
approved project on the site. There are 23 free market dwelling units within the project
measuring approximately 52,500 square feet of GRFA. There are four deed restricted employee
housing units within the project measuring approximately 4,000 square feet; any additional
required employee housing would be proposed to be mitigation by pay-in-lieu. All parking for the
project will be in a subterranean structure beneath the project.
Sid Schultz, from GPSL architects, representing the applicant, gave a presentation focusing on
the bulk, mass, and architecture of the project.
Don Guidry, owner of Unit A-71 in Liftside Condominiums, asked when the applicant had been
before the Liftside Board.
Rick Pylman clarified that they met with the E3oard of Directors for Liftside Condominiums before
the December 2006 annual meeting for Liftside owners.
Nancy Heinen, resident of 1125 Westhaven Lane, stated that she and many of the owners on
Westhaven have concerns with the eventual lighting and landscaping of the site. She urged the
applicant to be sensitive to neighboring properties when designing exterior lighting.
John Perkins and Beth Ayers, of JMP architects and from Otto, ~ Porterfield and Ayers,
representing several owners within Liftside Condominiums, expressed that their clients are
concerned with the height of the towers and the potential for the new structure to block the views
of Liftside units. They are further concerned with the issue of site coverage, and they are
concerned about the proposed employee housing in the lowest level and whether or not
employees could afford the units. They would propose to remove the employee housing so that
the eastern tower could be reduced in height. They also suggested moving Units 8 and 9 from
the eastern tower to the area between the two towers.
Commissioner Cleveland asked about the validity of Ordinance 33, Series 2006. He requested
that Staff clarify exactly which Ordinance for SDD No. 4 applied to any review of development
within Area A and to clarify which previously approved development plan for Cornerstone had
expired.
Page 2
John Goodman, representing the Guidrys, owners of a unit in Liftside, asked that the
Commission look at current needs, not the expired project. He asked that the Commission and
Staff review the Town of Vail Municipal Code as it applies to traffic generation and design
standards at Westhaven Drive. He suggested that the existing pedestrian easement (and
associated skier access improvements) be moved to the east or that the easement be
abandoned, allowing for buildings to be shifted to the West and for Liftside ownership to preserve
views. He pointed out that Liftside Condominium Association currently uses the same property
manager as would be contracted for the Cornerstone Building and that this project will directly
compete with the current rental product at Liftside Condominiums; that maybe this density of
units is not needed.
Donnie D'etample, an owner in Liftside Condominiums, asked the Commission to look at the
setbacks and site coverage and the impact on owners at the Liftside Condominiums.
Commissioner Kurz suggested that employee housing should remain on site and if possible
more should be added.
Commissioner Pierce suggested that a site coverage analysis will need to be done for all of Area
A of the SDD. Furthermore Pierce suggested that the applicant talk further with the neighboring
property owners. He expressed support for the varied roof height and composition as a benefit
to the overall architecture and massing within Cascade Village. He stated that the separation
between the East and West towers of the building was appropriate, and he encouraged the
applicant to study the style of the roof forms presented. He continued that it is important to keep
employee housing on site. He suggested that the applicant study the facade facing Westhaven
Drive to add more architectural interest at the street level leading to the Cascade Hotel.
Rick Pylman clarified that it was December of 2005, not December of 2006, when they met with
Liftside Board of Directors.
Commissioner Proper agreed with many of the comments already made by the other members.
He encouraged the applicant to work with the neighboring properties to work out solutions prior
to appearing before the Commission for any final plan review.
Commissioner Viele asked that all previously approved development plans be shown at the next
meeting to help establish what has been previously approved. He stated that apay-in-lieu for
the employee housing is appropriate.
Commissioner Cleveland expressed concerned about the height of the building and stated that
any height over 71 feet should be justified. He expressed concern about shading of the
Westhaven Drive. He stated that the applicant proposes to create a new and/or enhanced portal
to the ski mountain with this application and that he is concerned about impacts to traffic and
parking. He again asked that Staff clarify all previous approved development plans and
applicable ordinances for SDD No. 4.
60 minutes
4. A request for final review of a major exterior alteration, pursuant to Section 12-7H-7, Major
Exterior Alterations or Modifications, Vail Town Code, to allow for the redevelopment of the
Lionshead Inn and Lionshead Inn Annex (Fogata), and a request for final review of conditional
use permits, pursuant to Section 12-7H-3, Permitted and Conditional Uses, First Floor or Street
Level, Vail Town Code, to allow for attached accommodation units, lodge dwelling units, and
multiple-family residential units on the first floor, and pursuant to Section 12-7H-5, Conditional
Uses: Generally (On All Levels Of A Building Or Outside Of A Building), Vail Town Code, to allow
for the development of a private parking lot, located at 701 and 705 West Lionshead Circle/part
Page 3
of Lot 1, Block 2, Vail Lionshead Filing 3, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC07-
0027, PEC07-0028)
ACTION: Table to October 8, 2007
MOTION: Kurz SECOND: Viele VOTE: 6-0-0
30 minutes
5.' A request for a final approval of a preliminary plan for a major subdivision, pursuant to Chapter
13-3, Major Subdivision, Vail Town Code, to allow for the creation of two new lots necessary for
the redevelopment of the properties known as "Ever Vail" (West Lionshead), located at 862, 923,
934, 953, 1031 South Frontage Road West, and the South Frontage Road West right of
way/Unplatted (a complete legal description is available for inspection at the Town of Vail
Community Development Department), and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC07-0020)
Applicant: Vail Resorts Development Company, represented by Thomas Miller
Planner: Warren Campbell
ACTION: Approval, with Condition(s)
MOTION: Pierce SECOND: Viele VOTE: 6-0-0
Condition(s):
1) That the applicant cannot proceed fonrvard with the review and approval of a final plat
for Ever Vail until such time as the Federal Highway Administration, the Colorado
Department of Transportation, and the Town of Vail has approved the relocation and
design of the South Frontage Road, West Forest Road, and the location of the
proposed roundabout.
2) That the applicant shall provide adequate Right of Way for the construction of a two
lane roundabout if the single lane roundabout does not provide sufficient excess
capacity for the long term future. The current preliminary analysis indicates the need
for a single lane roundabout, however it would not be prudent to eliminate the ability
to increase the size of the roundabout in the future by confining it by private
property/buildings. Based on current trends and similar designs the needed excess
capacity may be between 30%-50%, this shall be further analyzed and reviewed within
the final Traffic Report. Any necessary changes to the roundabout design based on
the final approved Traffic Impact Report shall be shown on the plans submitted for
review and approval in conjunction with the Ever Vail Final Plat.
3) That the applicant establishes a stream tract for the Red Sandstone Creek and
provides this tract to the Town of Vail for inclusion into the stream tract system. The
stream tract shall be depicted upon the plans submitted for review and approval of the
Ever Vail Final Plat.
Warren Campbell gave a presentation per thE~ staff memorandum.
Dominic Mauriello, Mauriello Planning Group LLC, representing the applicant, gave a
presentation in which he stated that he understands the issue regarding the Red Sandstone
Creek stream track and dedications that may be required; request that the staff recommended
condition be revised to specifically request the creation of an easement. Furthermore he agreed
with the staff memorandum that the proposed plan does meet the goals and objectives of master
plan.
Commissioner Kurz asked what the impact to the existing wetands there would be.
Dominic Mauriello and Tom Miller responded that the wetlands had been delineated and there
may be some impacts, but it will be mitigated. It was further described that a bridge spanning
the creek would be put in place in conjunction with the Frontage Road realignment.
Page 4
Commissioner Pierce requested that future applications show adjacent parcels and building
outlines in context with the proposed Ever Vail.
Commissioner Kurz inquired as to the future of the water treatment plant.
Warren Campbell explained that Eagle River Water and Sanitation District would like to move
certain functions from their current location; however, has indicated that there will always be a
need for some type of water treatment facility in that location.
Commissioner Scott inquired as to the precedence regarding stream setbacks and stream tract
dedications with private development.
Warren Campbell stated that Red Sandstone Creek has a 30-foot minimum setback for
structures from the centerline of Red Sandstone Creek and that the Town has required
dedications of stream tracks previously.
Dominic Mauriello stated that Vail Resorts Development Company (VRDC) has planned to
protect and enhance the creek, but suggested that the rezoning of the creek to Natural Area
Preservation District would unduly restrict VRI from constructing certain improvements to
"amenitize" the natural stream track area (bridges/paths, etc.).
Commissioner Viele asked if the Town (PEC) would review a preliminary plan without some
assurance that the road re-alignment is going to be approved by CDOT.
Tom Miller explained that VRDC is working on memorandum of understanding with CDOT.
Warren Campbell added that staff would not have allowed this application to have proceeded
forward at this point if it were not likely that CDOT was going to approve the relocation. He
added that there have been multiple conversations between CDOT and the Public Works
Department regarding the Frontage Road realignment.
Jim Lamont, representing the Vail Village Homeowners Association asked Tom Kassmel if the
proposed right-of-way shown on the preliminary plan was wide enough for construction of all
elements of the "Grand Boulevard" proposed/envisioned by the Town.
Tom Kassmel, Town Engineer, responded that the proposed right-of-way contained enough
width to accommodate the "Grand Boulevard".
Jim Lamont then asked if the single lane round about sufficient.
Tom Kassmel stated that based on current projections, a single lane will work to handle future
capacity. He added that the Town also wants right of way dedicated to accommodate any future
expansion of the roundabout.
30 minutes
6. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council for a zone district boundary
amendment, pursuant to 12-3-7, Amendments, Vail Town Code, to allow for a rezoning from
Arterial Business District to Lionshead Mixed Use 2, located at 953 and 1031 South Frontage
Road (a complete legal description is available for inspection at the Town of Vail Community
Development Department), and setting forth Details in regard thereto. (PEC07-0021)
Applicant: Vail Resorts Development Company, represented by Thomas Miller
Planner: Warren Campbell
ACTION: Table, to October 8, 2007
Page 5
MOTION: Kurz SECOND: Proper VOTE: 5-1-0 (Cleveland
opposed)
Warren Campbell gave a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Dominic Mauriello, Mauriello Planning Group LLC, representing the applicant, gave a
presentation, stating that he believes that the proposed rezoning meets the intent of the master
plan. However, he would like to request that this item be tabled in order to discuss the wording
of the condition suggested by staff to accompany any recommendation form the Commission.
Commissioner Proper asked why the Commission should upzone property at this time other than
to allow for Ever Vail to move forward.
Dominic Mauriello explained that the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, as amended,
anticipates this development as a detailed recommendation for these sites.
Warren Campbell added that the changes to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan result in
several benefits to the Town such as public improvements and uses, new mixed-use portal,
additional commercial and office space, clean up of the industrial portions of Town, etc.
Commissioner Pierce asked how the applicant will propose to meet employee housing
requirements of this proposed development.
Warren Campbell stated that the applicant is fully aware of the employee housing requirements
and knows they will need to comply; however, there is no plan for mitigating the impact at this
time.
Commissioner Cleveland stated that without a development plan, he is not in favor of approving
a zoning change; approval is premature. The Town should have a better idea of what is going to
be proposed in terms of bulk, mass, and uses.
1 minute
7. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council, pursuant to Section 12-3-7,
Amendments, Vail Town Code, for proposed text amendments to Title 11, Sign Regulations, and
Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code, to allow for amendments to regulations pertaining
to outdoor display, sales signs, menu boards, and setting forth details in regard thereto.

DONOVAN PAVILION VAIL TOWN COUNCIL OCTOBER 2, 20D7
CHANNEL 5 NEWLETTER
Vail Valley Community Television
CONFIDENTIAL
UPDATE: September 26, 2007
Board Members and Council Members, it is very important to bring you up to date with the
progress and direction of Channel 5, your only community access station. You are our partners
and main support, therefore we want to make sure you are aware of the "what, where and whys"
of TV 5.
In years past and present, TV 5 has telecast the town council meetings in their entirety....gavel to
gavel. Today our telecast of your meetings are better technically and more consistent than ever
giving the viewers several different time periods to view (live-to-tape or available for taping).
Our mission has become more focused and elevated than ever before. Information, education,
and localism is our mantra.
The business plan to bring TV 5 to: our objective is tried and true. However, it is taking longer
than we would like due to limited financial contributions, operational costs and manpower to get
the job done. Nevertheless, we are on track and making more progress than any professional
broadcaster could imagine given those restraints. We are ahead of our five year plan
unanimously passed by our Board of Directors.
In the past we produced some local shows such as "Mountain Valley Magazine" that took much
effort and money with little ROI and it was the "same old....same old". Consequently
duplication of airing became the norm. T'V 8 does a great job producing interview shows (they
have enormous budgets by comparison) and contracts out to air real estate shows and business
shows such as "Living it Up in........". These shows are telecast numerous times.
Duplication or multiple viewing of shows diminishes the viewership for obvious reason. In the
last fifteen years of my thirty year broadcast career as the General Manager of major market
television stations, I witnessed on a daily basis the diminishing returns of program duplication
and rerunning the same program over and over in a short period of time. The prime example of
such is Denver's two PBS stations, Channels 6 & 12, K--- and KRMA respectively. Denver is
one of the only major markets in the country that has two PBS stations. PBS produces some of
the finest and most costly shows made. When I left broadcasting in 2000, over 50% of the
programming for the two stations was, a duplication of, effort and in the daily overnight ratings
and in the Neilson surveys they consistently "diluted ,the ratings due to duplicity. (Without going
into the analytical or statistical evidence of duplication, you can logically understand the
shortcomings of such programming philosophy).
Our business plan is sound and will ultimately be successful if our supporters allow us to bring it
to fruition. TV 5 has subscribed to "network type" programming is for the following reasons:
1) TV 5 airs programs with information and education,
2) TV 5 airs content without duplication, and
3) TV 5 will pre-empt "at will" for localism.
We can and will insert localism whenever we can produce, acquire or subcontract out for more
local informational and educational programming. We have news, bi-lingual shows, weather,
local sports, community calendars, social programs, human interest programming all in mind and
ready to telecast as money, time and personnel permit. The plan is there, the will is there and
hopefully your support is there as well.
I can assure you that after making many presentations to community leaders, business leaders
and average Vail Valley residents; that our mission 'is riot only wanted and needed but long
overdue. This is, and has been the reason for the, redevelopment of TV 5. Your constituents
(our viewers) are one and the same and will be 'far greater served if we are allowed to reach our
objective. In my professional opinion, the baby steps we are taking now will build the
foundation for future success; one that all of us can take great pride. We will become the
vanguard and prototype for community access stations across the country bringing
communication and awareness of localism of small towns and communities to new and greater
levels than ever before.
As it stands today, TV 5 is bringing more information and education to the Valley than the
other local channels combined. We have the only Education/Information (E/I) accredited
programming telecast in the Vail Valley. The accreditation is per national organizations such as
the FCC and NATPE (National Association of Television Program Executives) which is the
largest most well known broadcast organization in the world. I was an active member of
NATPE for over fifteen years.
Each broadcaster commits so many hours of programming to public service but never will you
find anywhere the huge commitment TV 5 has made to this Valley. We stand head and
shoulders above all other local electronic media competitors with educational and informational
shows such as: '' '``
• Jack Hanna
• Exploration with Richard Wiese~~
• Kid Guides
• Real Life 101
• Whatdydo
• Bin Tune
• Aqua Kids
• Ultimate Choice
• Today's Health
• Profiles in Caring
Many of these shows teach kids how to make good choices, teach them values and actually could
save their lives. They educate and inform in a venue that is both appealing and entertaining.
Keep in mind this represents only a few of the programs of this nature airing on TV 5.....there
are many more !
We are the only station to broadcast to the local Hispanic community (which I would guess is
greater than 30% of our residents) with programs such as "Andiamo!", "Hispanics Today", and
"Latin Eyes" and bi-lingual Spanish/English Department of Education programming. We have
spoken with one of the largest active :employers and other, leaders in the community to bring a
bilingual show to TV 5 to help inform and, assimilate 'our Spanish-speaking residents.
We run more than 35 hours a week of gavel to gavel council meetings, giving viewers two and
three opportunities per week to see Avon, Vail and Minturn Town Council meetings. In addition
we run: Vail Recreation District and Eco Transit meetings, Eagle River Watershed Council
(Waterwise Wednesdays), Eagle County School Board Meetings, as well as Community Affairs
programming with Rhon Robbins. No other station does as much as TV 5 or is as committed
to the residents or taxpayers of Eagle County.
It's only natural we would bring a news operation to the Valley. That will be done but on a shoe
string budget. The process is slow but extremely worthwhile.
Ask any broadcast owner (ABC, NBC, CBS, or FOX), and they will tell you the most important
job of the General Manager is to protect its license. Following the FCC guidelines is of
paramount importance. Ethics and clarity of~purpose and operation are critical. The main reason
for our disassociation with Eco-TV. is ~~the fact that they don'.t want to run their programming on
,.
Ch.S. They invited both TV 8 and Pl"um in and asked if they would carry their programming.
They intentionally didn't offer us the. same opportunity. Also, there are huge disparities in the
reporting of franchise fees and operational budgets and I perceive the "stated" funding of Eco-
TV to be seriously overstated.
First, let me state that we would run any and all of their programming and have offered to do so.
We were told in the past that we were not welcome to tape and televise the Eagle County
Commissioner meetings and that they, the Commissioners, would do their own. Control of
content, programming, management and editing by a government, state or county over a media
outlet is unwise and possibly dangerous. Editing your own meetings could be questioned by
viewers and therefore suspect. A third party is best to bring credibility and unbiased reporting.
Does or should Avon or Vail control the programming and content of a media outlet? A
rhetorical question but one that must be asked. TV 5 has a thirty-year seasoned broadcaster who
has protected multimillion dollar broadcast operations and has its own Board of Directors and
representatives from the three towns. Our representatives should be aware of our business plan
and help ethically guide its direction without political conflicts-of-interests, nor control of
content and programming. The question Council Members should ask is: Is TV 5 being a service
to the community? I believe ariotfier,;; rhetorical question because we are doing more than all
.,
media outlets combined now and our.`~future plans~~~will only enhance and expand our current
commitment. ~ ~ '~
Eagle County controls Eco-TV because they have the direct employ of Justin Finestone as
Communication Director. Don Cohen is Meetings Coordinator who takes an active role
representing Eco TV 18. He is making presentations, representing EcoTV without Justin to
many groups including the Public Education Department. They have two videograghers hired
from Vail Associate's TV 8 making over $110,000 combined. They pay TV 8 thousands per
year for studio time.. They work out of county offices. They have equipment costs, insurance
costs, eventually they'll have their own studio costs, utility costs, etc. and Justin has publicly
indicated that EcoTV is financed solely on franchise fees which he states are approximately
$250,000 annually. I have spoken directly with Century-Tel and Comcast and they have told me
their combined annual fees to EcoTV wouldn't pay for one video employee. Knowing the fees
we receive and what the two cable companies have told me, it is difficult to understand how they
can financially operate.
~~~~~~ ,
TV 5 is a community access station with its 'owri Board; aril as you know, franchise fees are
given with the intention of serving the community. As I have previously stated, our
programming is currently doing that better than any other station and has more and better
ambitions to continue such in the future. Avon and Vail direct a portion of the franchise fees for
the operation of TVS that total less than $150,000 per year. These funds are being better put to
use and will help create a community asset that will far surpass what all the others combined can
or will do. If the other stations compete with us in community service all the better for the
community but news needs to be fair and balanced without any conflicts of interest and TV 5 is
best positioned to do the best job. I've been told that TV 8 once did a news but found conflicts
of interest, therefore, dropped the operation.
As far as an interconnect between cable company's to telecast Down Valley, we have looked into
it and would love to move forward but our priorities dictate other uses of our monies. We have
been told it would cost approximately $20,000. Either EcoTV paid a similar amount to inter-
connect or political persuasion was used to have Comcast and Century-Tel donate time and
materials to accomplished getting Ch. 18 up and down Valley. Down Valley (Century-Tel)
subscribers are few by comparison to Comcast's numbers (approx. 18,000 v. 3,500).
Nevertheless, we want to connectEast,Vail to Gypsum.
,,
Regardless how long it takes to reach'our objectives, TV 5"i's on.course to become much more of
an asset to the community than it ever has -been ~ or even imagined. As we are programmed
currently, TV S is providing a much greater :service to the community than any other media
outlet in the Valley and its potential business plan provides a future of service and information
that no other has accomplished.
The towns of Vail, Avon and Minturn are getting the biggest "bang for their bucks" and the
future is even more promising. The ROI is huge and the benefits to the community are
incomparable. Our mission is transparent and our goals are too potentially beneficial to the
community to have any impediments deter our efforts.
Respectf ly,
Te nce J Brown

MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Council
FROM: Community Development
DATE: October 2, 2007
SUBJECT: Proposed Additions to the Town of Vail Master Deed Restriction
"Permitted Capital Improvements" for Vail Commons, Red Sandstone
Creek, North Trail Townhomes, Pitkin Creek Park Condominiums # 5-F
and Vail Heights # 11
I. Introduction
The Town of Vail has developed or caused to be developed 79 deed restricted for-
sale units with a price appreciation cap. The purpose of the price appreciation cap
is to ensure the units remain perpetually affordable to local employees. To that
end, the Master Deed Restriction for the specific properties limits the Permitted
Capital Improvements that maybe recouped in the re-sale price of the unit. The
purpose of limiting the capital improvements is to further ensure the units are not
eventually priced out of the affordable range with expensive improvements.
The Master Deed Restriction has been very successful in maintaining the
properties as permanently affordable. There is some concern as the properties age
(Vail Commons is now 10-years old), that the Permitted Capital Improvements is
so narrow they may result in limited long-term maintenance of the units. The
goal of the proposed additions to the Permitted Capital Improvements is not to
further the resale value of an Owner's home, but to provide some monetary relief
if certain improvements are made, and an Owner must sell their unit within five-
years. Nonetheless, Owners are always free to make non-recoupable
improvements or modifications to their unit that enhances the enjoyment of their
home.
II. Proposed Additions to the Master Deed Restriction
There are five "improvements" that typically come up when an Owner is looking
to sell their unit. The improvements are generally one of the following five items:
1. New Carpet and Pad
2. New Hardwood, Wood Laminate, or Tile Floor and base
3. New Energy Star Appliances
4. Baseboard, Window Casing, and/or Interior Doors
5. Counter Top and Tub Surrounds
Staff believes the addition of these five improvements to the Permitted Capital
Improvements, on a depreciation. schedule, will be a prudent inclusion in the
Master Deed Restriction. The recommended inclusions are general upgrades and
will not cause the units to appreciate beyond the value of the improvement(s).
Staff recommends depreciating the above listed Permitted Capital Improvements
over afive-year time frame. While the improvements. will generally last longer
than five years, their re-sale value generally would 'not. Following is the
suggested depreciation schedule:
1. 75% of the cost will be included in the Maximum Sales Price if the
improvement(s) has been installed within 12 months of listing the
unit.
2. 50% of the cost will be included in the Maximum Sales Price if the
improvement(s) has been installed in greater than 12 months and
less than 36 months of listing the unit.
3. 25% of the cost will be included in the Maximum Sales Price if the
improvement(s) has been installed in greater than 36 months and
less than 60 months of listing the unit.
4. No cost will be included in the Maximums Sales Price if the
improvement(s) ha s b een installed in g reater t han 60 m onths o f
listing the unit.
As additional insurance that the proposed additional Permitted Capital
Improvements would not cause the Maximum Sales Price of the units to soar out
of the affordable range, the following maximum recoupable costs are
recommended. The maximum prices will need to be adjusted on an annual basis,
but are designed to allow an Ov~mer to purchase reasonable quality, while not
exceeding an affordable range. Staff recommends allowing the annual price
adjustments to be made administratively. The appliance prices, in particular, are
designed to promote the purchase of high efficiency appliances. In the draft there
is additional language that allows the Town's Housing Coordinator the ability to
not approve the addition of any of these items if the condition of the improvement
has wear and tear beyond what should be expected of the improvement's age.
The Maximum Annual Price or the actual price paid per Improvement, whichever
is less, per the depreciation calendar listed above, may be added to the Maximum
Sales Price of a unit.
1. Carpet and Pad $4.00 per square foot
2. Hardwood or Wood Laminate $7.00 per square foot
3. Tile $10.00 per square foot
4. Clothes Washer $800.00
5. Clothes Dryer $800.00
6. Refrigerator $1,500.00
7. Range $900.00
8. Dishwasher $500.00
9. Over-the-Range Microwave $400.00
2
10. Baseboard
12. Interior Doors
13. Counter Top
14. Bath Tub Surround
$5.00 per linear foot
$200.00 per door
$50.00 per square foot
$5.00 per square foot
An additional price control exists in the Master Deed Restriction. It states
"The amount for Permitted Capital Improvements shall not exceed ten
percent (10%) of the initial listed purchase price. For every ten year (1 D)
period, from the date of original purchase and deed restriction, another
ten percent of the purchase price may be added to the value of the
property for capital improvements. "
III. Staff Recommendation
Staff has consulted with staff at Eagle River Water and Sanitation District, as they
are the Town's partner at Red Sandstone Creek and on a more limited basis at
North Trail Townhomes, and they support the addition of these specific items to
the Permitted Capital Improvements, the depreciation schedule, and the associated
Maximum Annual Price schedule. The Vail Local Housing Authority has also
reviewed the proposed changes and is supportive of the proposed additions.
The proposed changes to the Master Deed Restriction would not change any other
provision in the Deed Restriction. The Town of Vail reserves the right to make
any changes to the Master Deed Restriction in Paragraph 34.
"Modifications. The parties to this Agreement agree that any
modification of this Agreement shall be effective only when made by
writings signed by both parties and recorded with the Clerk and Recorder
of Eagle County, Colorado. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Town
reserves the right to amend this Agreement unilaterally where deemed
necessary to effectuate t he purpose and intent of this Agreement, and
where such unilateral action does not materially impair the Owners rights
or any lender rights under this Agreement. "
A redline draft of the proposed changes to Exhibit B "Permitted Capital
Improvements" has been attached to this memo. Staff recommends that Town
Council approve the proposed additions to the Permitted Capital Improvements
via the attached Resolution #21, the proposed depreciation schedule and the
proposed Maximum Annual Price to the Town of Vail Master Deed Restriction
for Vail Commons, Red Sandstone Creek, North Trail Townhomes, Pitkin Creek
Park Condominiums #5-F and Vail Heights #11. Additionally, it is recommended
that all future enacted deed restrictions that are facilitated. by the Town of Vail
include these additions.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: October 2, 2007
SUBJECT: Request to proceed through the development review process with a proposal
to construct private improvements on the Town of Vail owned Tract A, Middle
Creek Subdivision.
Applicant: Sonnenalp Properties, Inc., represented by Henry Pratt,
Gwathmey Pratt Schultz Lindall Architects
Planner: Scot Hunn
I. SUMMARY
The Applicant, Sonnenalp Properties, Inc., represented by Henry Pratt,
Gwathmey Pratt Schultz Lindall Architects (GPSL); is requesting permission to
proceed through the Town's development review process for the re-alignment of
an existing driveway across Tract A, Middle Creek Subdivision, for the Solar Vail
Employee Housing Project.
Pursuant to Section III of this memorandum, Staff is recommending approval of
this request.
II. DESCRIPTJON OF REQUEST
Description of Request
The Applicant, Sonnenalp Properties, Inc., represented by Henry Pratt, GPSL, is
proposing to re-develop the Solar Vail property located at 501 North Frontage
Road West. A vicinity map is attached for review (Attachment A).
Solar Vail History
Solar Vail was originally constructed in 1976 and includes eleven (11) deed
restricted employee housing units (EHUs) and 13 dwelling units (DUs), for a total
of 24 units owned and used exclusively by Sonnenalp Properties as employee
housing in support of the Sonnenalp Hotel operations.
Current Proposal and Rationale for Request
The current proposal includes demolition of the existing structure and the
development of sixty three (63) deed restricted employee housing units as well
as limited office space uses. During the preliminary review of this project, Staff
asked the Applicant to revise the plans to include improvements to the grade and
alignment of the existing access driveway to meet current Town standards. The
existing access ,driveway, located to the east of the existing Solar Vail building,
encroaches over the extreme south west corner of Tract A.
Tract A
Tract A is an un-platted parcel of land owned by the Town of Vail, and the Town
Council serves the role of the "property owner" for this parcel. Existing driveway
improvements, presumably constructed in 1976 along with the development of
Solar Vail, impact approximately 600 square feet of Tract A. Preliminary
drawings indicating the revised driveway alignment and associated extents of
disturbance on Tract A are forthcorriing for review during the Town Council work
session.
In addition, Tract A is identified on the Town of Vail Official Zoning Map as being
within the Natural Area Preservation (NAP) District. This is perhaps the most
restrictive zone district within the Town boundaries and prohibits the construction
of improvements such as paved access drives for motorized vehicles. Therefore,
Staff is recommending that, in addition to obtaining Town Council (i.e. property
owner) approval for the proposed improvements before proceeding through the
Town's development review process, a text amendment to the Natural Area
Preservation (NAP) District, specifically Section 12-8-C3 -Conditional Uses, Vail
Town Code, will be required to allovv for any re-construction of a driveway across
or over Tract A.
A reduced copy of a site survey showing the existing conditions is attached for
reference (Attachment B).
111. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Vail Tovvn Council approves the Applicant's request
to proceed through the development review process.
Please be advised that an approval of this request does not constitute an explicit
approval of the proposed improvements; any approval only authorizes the
Applicants to proceed through the T'own's development review process.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: October 2, 2007
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 22, Series of 2007, a resolution to adopt the Solaris
Parking Management Plan, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
Applicant: Solaris Property Owner, LLC, represented by Maurielo
Planning Group, LLC
Planner: Warren Campbell
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this hearing is to review Resolution No. 22, Series of 2007, a
resolution to adopt the Solaris Parking Management Plan, pursuant to the
requirements of the Crossroads Development Agreement dated March 22, 2006,
and setting forth details in regard thereto.
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL
Approve, approve with modifications, or deny Resolution No. 22, Series of 2007.
III. BACKGROUND
On March 22, 2006, the Town Council agreed to the Crossroads Development
Agreement which addressed the many public aspects of the Solaris project. One
of those aspects was the management of the 81 excess parking spaces in the
subterranean garage which are a portion of the public benefit to offset the
deviations that were approved. The Crossroads Development Agreement
required that the applicant return to the Town Council for review and approval of
the parking management plan prior to submitting for a building permit. This
request is being proposed to satisfy that requirement.
The following is the text of the Crossroads Development Agreement which
addresses Parking Management.
a. Parking Management. Before applying for a building permit for the
Crossroads Project, Crossroads must submit and the Town Council must
approve a parking management plan (the "Parking Management Plan')
which sets forth, in sufficient detail, the proposed use, operation and
management of the parking facility planned in connection with the
Crossroads Project (the "Parking Facility'). The Town Council shall
approve the Parking Management Plan so long as it is reasonably
calculated to (i) maximize the use and occupancy of the Parking Facility
and (ii) ensure that spaces not used by owners of residential
condominium units or by commercial tenants or owners are available to
the general public to the greatest extent possible. Such approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
The Public Works Department has reviewed the submitted Solaris Parking
Management Plan dated August 31, 2007, and the addendum dated September
19, 2007. The Public Works Department believes the plan will effectively
function and operate in a manner to most highly utilize the excess parking within
the project and the required parking in the project.
On September 18, 2007, the Town Council voted unanimously to table this
request to the October 2, 2007, public hearing, after discussion. The results of
the discussion were as follows:
• Inclusion of language udentifying if there will be a greater number of
parking passes sold than the actual number of parking spaces
available in an effort to insure that the spaces are occupied more fully
on a daily basis.
• Inclusion of language into the management plan that discusses
pricing of the available spaces and how that pricing would be
competitive in order to keep the spaces filled.
• Inclusion of language that states that no specific spaces will be sold or
provide exclusively for' any individual owner within the project.
• Inclusion of greater detail on how the parking management plan will
function, not just the mechanics.

Solarls Parking Management Plan
Addendum
September 19, 2007
Goal of Parking Management Plan
The goal of the parking management plan for Solartis ~s to maximize the use of the entire
parking structure. The ultimate goal is to seek 100% utilization of parking spaces within
the structure. Typically 100% is not really possible since customers and guests to the
property are constantly coming and going and from a retail perspective we don't want
there to be stagnant long-term users occupying parking spaces when there are paying
customers who may want to park as well. The goal is to maximize turn over in parking
spaces and achieving nearly i 00% occupancy at peak periods in the winter ski season.
Achieving the Goal of High Occupancy
The ownership and management of the Solaris project and the parking facilities remains
with the developer or other managing entity. 100% of the parking will be managed by
this one entity. This ensures that no one user type controls the operation of the
parking to the detriment of the other users. The following is a description of the
different users of the parking facilities:
• Residential Owners: Residential owners are guaranteed the right to park within
the parking facility. However, they are not assigned a parking space. They have
a right to use parking when in residence. Residential owners will have to check in
with the concierge to activate their parking cards when in residence The card will
expire at the end of their stay, ensuring that once no longer ~n residence, the
parking space occupied by the resident ~s available for use by another user and
thus ensuring that there will be no empty residential parking space during peak
periods. however, for the duration of their stay, they will have guaranteed
access to a parking space.
• Commercial Tenants: Commercial tenants are afforded the opportunity to park
within the parking facility. Commercial tenants are not assigned parking spaces
and will utilize parking spaces as generally available to the public. Each tenant
may be given as part of a negotiated lease, an AVI card to allow quick and easy
access. The owner may establish short term parking spaces for tenants to allow
for come and go activities and loading and delivery.
Exhibit A
• Parking Club Members: The Solaris project was approved with a certain number
of parking spaces to be leased or managed as a parking club. The goal of the
parking club is to maintain high occupancy rates within the facility consistent with
the overall goal of the facility. In order to achieve near 100% occupancy,
parking spaces will not be reserved. Instead, memberships are leased. The plan
for the club is to over lease memberships beyond the number of club parking
spaces and to make them available on a first come first serve basis. This is
similar to what was approved on Vail Resorts' Front Door project. In year I at
Solar~s, we estimate that parking club memberships will be leased anywhere from
a ratio of 2.0: I - 2.2: I to ensure a near 100% occupancy rate during peak
Mmes of the year. This ratio ~s subject to change after year I based on the
historical data collected from our Parking Management System. Additionally, if
club spaces are unoccupied for extended periods of time, those spaces can be
made available to the general public.
• Customers, Guests, and General Public: The parking facilities at Solaris will be
available to the general public for parking 24 hours a day, subject to certain rules
and regulations (i.e., to prevent abandon vehicles, vandalism, etc.) unless the
parking facility is full or is otherwise closed for maintenance. These users will pay
a parking fee to use the facility.
Parking Rates
At the owner's discretion, rates may be set at a level that is marketable with the primary
goal of a near 100% utilization of parking spaces within the structure. In order to
achieve this type of occupancy rate, parking rates will be structured to stake a balance
between parking revenues and occupancy. To ensure success of retail and restaurant
usage within the Solaris project and to ensure adequate turn over of parking spaces,
the owner may establish credits with a validation system.
Enforcement
The Town of Vail shall have the right to review this parking management plan ~n the future
if it can be shown that the parking facility is being managed inconsistent with this parking
management plan. The parking club operates based on the Planning and Environmental
Commission's approval of the conditional use permit. Conditional use permits may be
called up by the PEC, ~f the terms of the permit are not bung met.
Emergency Access
The owner/manager of the facility will ensure that emergency vehicles and personnel on
offiaal business have access in and out of the parking faal~ty through the use of an AVI
card or access code at the entrance/exit lanes of the garage.

^ Structural Design
This document defines official parking management plan for Solaris. The goal of the Solaris Parking
Operations is to maximize the availability of public parking. The Solaris parking garage is separated into three
uses; public parking, residential parking and a private parking club. The lowest level (Garage Level) consists
of the residential parking, parking club and public parking. Both Level 1 (Plaza Level) and Level 2 (Entry
Level) are entirely dedicated to public parking.
Entry/ Exit Lanes and Equipment
Lane 1 (Entry Lane)
a. All patrons will use this lane to enter the parking area. Control equipment will be located at this
entry point; it will allow the automatic vehicle identification (AVI) patrons to enter quickly and easily
without having to handle or insert an access card. The gate will open when the AVI reader senses a
valid card. There will also be equipment which will allow public parking patrons to receive a parking
ticket and open the gate.
2. Lane 2 (Entry/Exit Lane)
a. All patrons will use this lane to either enter or exit the parking area dependant on the time of day
or at the discretion of the operations manager. The dual functionality of the lane is to minimize the
impact of traffic during busy times, i.e., mornings during ski season or Saturday and Sunday
afternoons during winter and summer seasons. The same entry equipment from Lane 1 will be
utilized in addition to a Pay on Foot system. This system operates without an attendant. The patron
takes the ticket to a kiosk located in appropriate egress locations before returning to their vehicle,
they pay the fee and receive the ticket back. `Y~hen they arrive at the exit lane in their vehicle they
insert the ticket into a ticket verifier, which then opens the gate allowing them to leave. Control
equipment will also be located at this point to allow the AVI patrons to enter or exit quickly.
3. Lane 3 (Exit Lane)
a. All patrons will use this lane to exit the parking area. During the times Lane 2 performs as an
exit lane, Lane 3 will only allow AVI patrons to exit. This will minimize the wait time at the exits for
the residents and parking club patrons and eluninate congestion in the exit lanes. When Lane 2
performs as an entry lane, Lane 3 will return to functioning as an exit for the public patrons and AVI
card holders.

Parking Guidance System (PGS)
1. The parking guidance system (PGS) will activate illuminated signage which will indicate the number of
parking spaces available by level; it will also indicate the number of parking spaces by parking bay on the
Garage Level. The variable message sign at the entry of the garage vvill alert patrons to the availability of
space on each level. Level signs will be located at the end of each bay to keep patrons updated on the
availability of spaces as they continue through the garage. This system has the capacity to publish Solaris
parking availability to patrons via the Internet.
2. The illuminated signage is being update by the parking guidance system which is being fed information
from directional sensors. These directional sensors count vehicles and will be utilized in the entry/exit as well
as in each bay of the garage.
3. The parking guidance system will provide information to a central computer in order to monitor the
usage of particular areas within the garage. Additionally, this central computer will be used to control the
gates allowing access into the private and parking club areas. For example, when it is determined that public
parking patrons will be allowed to use the residential or parking club area of the garage, the central computer
can send a signal to raise the gate.
Automatic Vehicle Identification
1. Private and parking club patrons will enter and exit with AVI tags. Solaris will ensure that these tags are
not shared between individuals. The AVI tags will be "tamper proof' and if they are removed from the
vehicle windshield they are essentially destroyed and will not operate. Conversely, there will be parking
patrons that will need an AVI card but only temporarily because some units will be rented out on a short
term basis.
2. AVI reader equipment will control the gates that separate the parking club and private parking patrons
from the public. These readers allow for quick and secure entry and exit and the readers will provide the
central computer tracking of access by the AVI tags. As there will be times when public parking patrons will
be allowed to park in the residential or parking club areas, the system will be designed to allow any vehicle to
exit these areas even if they do not have an AVI tag.
Residential Parking/ Parking Club
To ensure that we maximize the usage of all parking spaces within the garage, Solaris will have operational
measures in place to benefit the public parking patrons. We have developed a system in which the private
parking areas will be open to the public on an availability basis. All residents or guests of Solaris will be
required to check in with the Concierge in order to receive their temporary AVI card. After they have
reported to the concierge, they will receive their AVI card. The AVI cards will be programmed in accordance
with the length of their stay. This allows the management of the building to have an accurate count of how
many owners and corresponding cars are and will be parked in the residential parking bays. No owner, unless
a permanent resident, will have full access to the residential parking area. This operational tactic, in addition
to the central computer system, will ensure the ability for public parking patrons to use both the residential
parking bays and parking club when spaces are available.
The following is an example of how the residential or parking club areas will work for public patrons:
On the morning of a powder day, the public parking area is filling up quickly. The parking guidance system
knows how many residents/guests can be accounted for within the gated residential parking bays. The
system knows that 108 spots are available for residence parking but that only 30 cars are registered to park in

that area. Therefore when the public parking is full, the gate to the residential parking will open and allow 78
cars in before closing. The same principal will be applied to the parking club bays. This system will always be
monitored by the operations manager to make certain that the interest of the residence owners as well as
parking patrons are accounted for.

Mauriello Planning Group
Solarls Parking Management Plan
Addendum
October 2 2007
The developer's primary goal is to ensure that the Solarls parking facility is managed in a
manner that maximizes the use and occupancy of the parking spaces. As discussed
below, the proposed parking management system will allow the owner to meet this
objective and satisfy the changing needs of parking patrons in the Town of Vail.
The parking management system is a fluid tool that enables the parking operator to
measure garage use and offer different passes that take advantage of established
parking patterns. Bank tenants may, for example, require the use of a certain number of
spaces during the daytime. The parking management system permits the parking
operator to limit bank use of such spaces to ordinary business hours and sell evening
passes to patrons who only need parking access after the banks have closed for the day
(i.e. chefs or bartenders working in Vail Village).
The parking management system also allows the parking operator to meet the various
day-to-day needs of the parking patrons visiting the commeraal center. The Movie
Theater operator will, by way of illustration, have the ability to provide its customers
with parking validation equal to the length of a movie. Similarly, the bank will be able to
offer parking validation equal to the length of a typical bank visit.
it is in the owner's best interest to maximize the occupancy of the parking facility. The
proposed parking management system gives Solarls the ability to understand the usage
of the parking garage, therefore allowing for the flexibility to adapt the measured use. If
the parking operator determines, for instance, that parking space use is unusually low in
March, the parking operator can offer different products and incentives to increase
March occupancy the following year. Historical data collected by the system will aid
the owner/manager in making any future changes necessary to ensure the optimum use
and occupancy of the parking facility.
Goal of Parking Management Plan
The goal of the parking management plan for Solarls is to maximize the use of the entire
parking structure. The ultimate goal is to seek 100% utilization of parking spaces within
the structure. Typically 100% is not really possible since customers and guests to the
property are constantly coming and going and from a retail perspective we don't want
there to be stagnant long-term users occupying parking spaces when there are paying
customers who may want to park as well. The goal is to maximize turn over in parking
spaces and achieving nearly 100% occupancy at peak periods in the winter ski season.
Achieving the Goal of flicth OccupancX
The ownership and management of the Solaris project and the parking facilities remains
with the developer or other managing entity. 100% of the parking will be managed by
this one entity. This ensures that no one user type controls the operation of the
parking to the detriment of the other users. The following is a description of the
different users of the parking facilities:
• Residential Owners: Residential owners are guaranteed the right to park within
the parking facility. however, they are not assigned a parking space. They have
a right to use parking when in residence. Residential owners will have to check in
with the concierge to activate their parking cards when in residence The card will
expire at the end of their stay, ensuring that once no longer in residence, the
parking space occupied by the resident is available for use by another user and
thus ensuring that there will be no empty residential parking space during peak
periods. However, for the duration of their stay, they will have guaranteed
access to a parking space.
• Commercial Tenants: Commercial tenants are afforded the opportunity to park
within the parking facility. Commercial tenants are not assigned parking spaces
and will utilize parking spaces as generally available to the public. Each tenant
may be given as part of a negotiated lease, an AVI card to allow quick and easy
access. The owner may establish short term parking spaces for tenants to allow
for come and go activities and loading and delivery.
• Parking Club Members: The Solaris project was approved with a certain number
of parking spaces to be leased or managed as a parking club. The goal of the
parking club is to maintain high occupancy rates within the facility consistent with
the overall goal of the facility. In order to achieve near 100% occupancy,
parking spaces will not be reserved. Instead, memberships are leased. The plan
for the club is to over lease memberships beyond the number of club parking
spaces and to make them available on a first come first serve basis. This is
similar to what was approved on Vail Resorts' Front Door project. In year I at
Solaris, we estimate that parking club memberships will be leased anywhere from
a ratio of 2.0: I - 2.2: I to ensure a near 100% occupancy rate during peak
times of the year. This ratio is subject to change after year I based on the
historical data collected from our Parking Management System. Additionally, if
club spaces are unoccupied for extended periods of time, those spaces can be
made available to the general public.
• Customers, Guests, and General Public: The parking facilities at Solaris will be
available to the general public for parking 24 hours a day, subject to certain rules
and regulations (i.e., to prevent abandon vehicles, vandalism, etc.) unless the
parking faality is full or is otherwise closed for maintenance. These users will pay
a parking fee to use the facility.
Parking Rates
At the owner's discretion, rates may be set at a level that is marketable with the primary
goal of a near 100% utilization of parking spaces within the structure. In order to
achieve this type of occupancy rate, parking rates will be structured to strike a balance
between parking revenues and occupancy. To ensure success of retail and restaurant
usage within the Solaris project and to ensure adequate turn over of parking spaces,
the owner may establish credits with a validation system.
Enforcement
The Town of Vail shall have the right to review this parking management plan in the future
if it can be shown that the parking facility is being managed inconsistent with the
objectives established in the Development Agreement. The parking club operates based
on the Planning and Environmental Commission's approval of the conditional use permit.
Conditional use permits may be called up by the PEC, if the terms of the permit are not
being met.
Emergency Access
The owner/manager of the facility will ensure that emergency vehicles and personnel on
offiaal business have access in and out of the parking facility through the use of an AVI
card or access code at the entrance/exit lanes of the garage.

NWCCOG purchases Silverthome office space
~~
CCOG purchased its office space in March -
securingits headquarters in Silverthorne and put-
ting acap on its monthly office expenses.
wilding oumer announces intent to sell
The building purchase ends a process that began more than
two years ago, when the owner of the building where
NWCCOG has rented office space since 1993 announced
his plans to sell. At the time, the building owner, Bob Wyler,
approached NWCCOG Executive Director Gary Severson
to see if NWCCOG would be interested in purchasing
the building. The Executive Committee gave Gary the
authorization to enter into a purchase contract. But the

plans to purchase never came to fruition after NWCCOG
determined there was no way to do so without signifi-
cantly increasing the organization's monthly costs.
Once those plans fell through, Bob -who is a strong sup-
porter of NWCCOG and its mission -asked Gary if
NWCCOG would, instead, be interested in purchasing a
portion of the building, if he went through the process of
condominiumizing it. Gary said yes.
Once the Town of Silverthorne approved making the build-
ing office condominiums, NWCCOG again began plans
to purchase. It applied and was approved for a USDA Ru-
ral Development Community Facilities direct loan (a loan
created to assist nonprofits in purchasing buildings for com-
munityactivities).
I~T6~l~'~'®~~inalizes purchase
NWCCOG purchased 5250-square-feet of office space (its
current offices and a few additional spaces) for $746,471.
That's $40,000 less than the amount for which the space
was appraised. The purchase was completed with no out-
of-pocket expenditure by NWCCOG, resulting in a
monthly mortgage payment that is less than NWCCOG
was paying monthly for rent this year.
Gary said the purchase may be NWCCOG's greatest ac-
complishmentduring his tenure as Executive Director.

FROM TTY E7~ECT.TI"IVE DIIZECTOR ~~
Town Managers
ecently, as is our custom here at Northwest Colorado
Council of Governments, I provided an orientation to
ur region's newest town manager, Devin Granbery at
the Town of Dillon. As I was returning to the office, I began
thinking of how many orientations I have given to new town
managers since I began my position here at NWCC~OG Execu-
tive Director in 1998.
If my memory serves me correctly, there are only two
town managers, Jeff Shroll of Gypsum and Willy Powell
of Eagle, and one county administrator, Kent Crowder
of Jackson County, who were in their current positions
when I arrived at NWCCOG nine years ago. In fact, sev-
eral towns have had more than one town manager in
that time. Several of our town managers, Bill Efting of
Basalt and Alan Lanning of Steamboat Springs, are in
the NWCCOG region only after leaving for tours of duty
in other communities before returning here.
Alan Lanning recently told me that the average tenure for
town managers in Colorado is 4.2 years. While I suspected
that town managers have U-Haul trailers parked in their
backyards, I did not realize they used them quite so fre-
quently. By contrast, the average tenure of executive direc-
tors of regional councils of governments is slightly over 12
years. There are more than a handful that have been in
their current positions for more than 25 years. Why the
difference? Allow me to speculate.
IDloving for promotions, salary
First of all, there is a career ladder among town managers.
As town managers gain experience and reputation, they tend
to move on to larger jurisdictions with more responsibil-
ity, larger staffs, and higher salaries. Though the occasional
regional executive director moves to a larger council, most
seem pretty content where they are. Indeed, I have been
recruited to manage regional councils elsewhere, but when
all is said and done, I can't think of a nicer place to be than
NWCCOG in Colorado's High Country.
I~Tew boards often seek new managers
Secondly, town managers usually work for boards of seven
elected officials. There can be major changes in the makeup
of town boards/councils with elections. Frequently, these
changes can signal a change in the town manager as the
new board/council seeks new direction. Often, the new
board/council believes it must have a new town manager
to go in the new direction. In contrast, executive directors
of regional councils work for extremely large boards of
elected officials -some exceed 50 members. The
NWCCOG board, known as the Council, consists of 28
members, with one elected representative from each mem-
berjurisdiction. So, although county and municipal elec-
tions occur, the makeup of the boards of regional councils
remains fairly constant.
Town managers take the blame
Thirdly, town managers and, to a degree, county adminis-
trators work in a confined geographic area. Due to the
nature of their jobs in their specific locales, boards and citi-
zens feel the direct results of their town managers' deci-
sionsand actions. Executive directors of regional councils,
on the other hand, work in large -even vast --geographic
areas with multiple jurisdictions. For example, the geo-
graphic area served by NWCCOG is over 7,000-square-
miles. We have five counties and 23 municipalities as mem-
bers. Because my focus is on the regional level, very few -
if any - of the decisions I make as executive director of
NWCCOG impact the operations of individual jurisdic-
tions or their citizens.

NWCCOG Secretary/Treasurer Bob French signs the final

Cathrall, Avon Town Councilmember Kristi Ferraro, and
NWCCOG Fiscal Officer Mike Kurth for working dili-
gently to make this purchase a reality, to the NWCCOG
Executive Committee for its belief and support, and to the
USDA Rural Development's April Dahlager and Fran
Krough for their assistance in accessing the necessary funds.
As Gary puts it, this purchase is "one of the major chapters
in NWCCOG's 35 year history."
Over the years, Gary has spoken with the Executive Direc-
tors of a number of other regional councils from around
the nation who have purchased their own buildings.
"Not one of them had any regrets," he said. "All of them
thought it was one of the smartest things they did."
Town Managers
continued from page 1
Controlling costs, maximizing space
Considering the dramatic rise in the cost of real estate in
Summit County, a new building owner would have likely
doubled or tripled NWCCOG's rent. By purchasing the
building, NWCCOG is locked into a set monthly mort-
gage payment and is guaranteed a future in Summit
County.
Bob Wyler generously took 10 percent of the sales price
in the form of a donation receipt. As a result, NWCCOG
received $74,600 in cash at closing, which it will use for
building improvements. Some of those improvements - a
powered platform lift for handicapped access to all floors,
and an ADA-accessible bathroom -are requirements of
the USDA loan. Additionally, NWCCOG plans to maxi-
mize its office space and lease some of it to help defray
costs.
Thank you to all who helped
"We really thank Mr. Wyler for his generosity and his be-
lief inNWCCOG," Gary said. "We never could have done
this without him."
Special thanks also goes to former Eagle County Commis-
sioner Tom Stone, Dillon Town Councilmember Judee
continued from page 2
Lastly, town boards and councils make decisions by a
vote that often creates feelings of animosity toward the
town manager. In contrast, most decisions of regional
councils are made through member consensus. This elimi-
nates animosity and enhances a spirit of collegiality.
Thank your town or county manager
I admire the managers of NWCCOG member jurisdic-
tions. They have difficult jobs, and receive little grati-
tude. Citizens too often blame them for enforcing town
codes, for not adequately anticipating that a water main
would rupture, or for not quieting a neighbor's barking
dog at 3 a.m. But they are the ones who make our towns
work. They translate direction from their councils into
action through their staffs, whether it is popular or not.
If you haven't thanked your town or county manager
lately, take some time to tell them "Thanks" for all they
do.
Here's to our town, city and county managers -this
article is for you.
Cheers! Gary

State legislators join fight against beetles
ast year, NWCCOG and the Rural Resort Region
(RRR) traveled to Washington D.C. to bring atten-
ion to Colorado's bark beetle epidemic. The effort
prompted the US Forest Service to reallocate funds to Colo-
rado to assist with the problem, and, eventually, brought
Colorado's legislators together to work on a unified bill.
Colorado delegation drafts un ~ed beetle bill
At NWCCOG and RRR's request, the staff of the Colo-
rado delegation has been working together to draft a uni-
fiedbeetle bill, known as the Unified Colorado Bark Beetle
Legislation.
The bill is a composite of portions of previously drafted
bills, originally introduced by individual members of the
Colorado delegation, and the Healthy Forest partnership
Act introduced by the Administration last fall. In addition
to tax credits and federal funding, the bill includes the es-
tablishment ofHealthy Forest Partnership Zones (to expe-
dite work in critical areas) and a Colorado Forest Health
Fund. It also includes incentives to private industry to work
in Colorado, and to local governments for the develop-
ment and implementation of Community Wildfire Pro-
tection Plans.

Governor Bill Ritter (second to left) visited Frisco May
29th to sign several bills, including Dan Gibb's House Bill
1130 which calls for $1 million annually to ficnd forest
restoration projects.
Unified beetle bill awaits signatures
A delegation of NWCCOG and RRR representatives trav-
eled to Washington D.C. in February to review the draft
bill with staff from each of the Colorado delegation's of-
fices. After inviting input from stakeholders, the staff up-
dated and finalized the bill. At the time of printing, the
bill had been forwarded to the members of the Colorado
delegation and was awaiting their signatures.
State legislators join beetle battle
Meanwhile, the Colorado State Legislature has introduced
and passed several beetle bills.
"We are very pleased that the Colorado State Legislature
joined us in the beetle wars by passing two bills and one
joint resolution," said NWCCOG's Gary Severson.
Senate Joint Resolution 6 is anon-binding resolu-
tion calling for three stewardship contracts in
Colorado's beetle-infested areas. State Representative
Dan Gibbs introduced the Resolution, which was car-
ried by Senator Joan Fitz-Gerald. The Resolution was
approved by both houses and signed by the Speaker
of the House and President of the Senate.

House Bill 1130 calls for $1 million annually for the
next five years to fund forest restoration projects. This
bill, too, was introduced by State Representative Dan
Gibbs and carried by Senator Joan Fitz-Gerald. It was

evator and Escalator Certification Act. The bill, which
was introduced for the fourth year running, calls for
statewide authorization in the installation, repair, and
'inspection of all elevators and escalators in Colorado.
NWCCOG fought hard to ensure that local governments
would retain control of their own conveyance codes, and
that NWCCOG's 14 year-old Elevator Inspection Pro-

It was successful on both accounts, said NWCCOG's
Gary Severson.

93 permit applications for new or modified units. That's
about 50 percent more than those received by the same
time last year.
Lead Inspector Mike Stewart traveled to Chicago in June
to attend a training seminar on conveyance alterations.
The Town of Georgetown and Garfield County recently
joined the Elevator Inspection Program. Several other ju-
risdictions have expressed an interest in becoming mem-

WATER Q[JAI.I'I'Y ~t QiJANTTI'Y COMMITTEE
Grand County stream management plan
The Water Quality and Quantity Committee (QQ is
overseeing the Grand County stream management plan -
ascientific project to determine preferred stream flows for
environmental and recreational needs. Now that the plan-
ningphase is complete, consultants are collecting data. Pre-
liminary results should be complete by late fall. Depend-
ing on the findings, the project may also include a third
phase which would involve remedial and habitat improve-
ment projects.
Gas er oil impact regulations
QQ participated in the May 14 Water Quality Control
Commission information hearing on impacts related to
oil and gas construction. Though the commission allowed
the industry some flexibility, it decided to uphold the cur-
rentregulations.
Local government victory
The Colorado Supreme Court recently upheld a local
government's right to regulate impacts from oil and gas
development when it denied a request by the State of Colo-
rado and Gunnison Energy Corporation to overturn the
Court of Appeals decision in Board of County Commis-
sioners of Gunnison county vs. BDS International.
In the Gunnison case, the Court ofAppeals had ruled that
Gunnison County regulations of oil and gas operations are
indeed valid, unless, following an evidentiary hearing, they
can be shown to "materially impede or destroy the State's
interest." The Court of Appeals also ruled that federal oil
and gas laws and regulations do not preempt all local regu-
lation of the environmental impacts of oil and gas de-
velopment on federal lands. The oil and gas industry and
the State petitioned the Colorado Supreme Court to re-
consider the Court of Appeal's decision, but the Supreme
Court refused to do so, leaving the Court of Appeals'
decision intact. QQ's General Counsel, Barbara Green,
representated QQmember Gunnison County in this liti-
gation.
Preferred Storage ®ption flan
QQ continues to work for its members on the Preferred
Storage Options Plan (PSOP) -federal legislation that
seeks to authorize a feasibility study for present and future
water supply and storage needs in the Fryingpan-Arkansas
service area. (The Fryingpan-Arkansas Project would di-
vert water from the Roaring Fork Valley to the Southern
Front Range.) Currently, two bills have been introduced,
one by Congressman John Salazar and one by Congress-
man Doug Lamborn from Colorado Springs. QQis work-
ing to ensure that West Slope impacts and concerns are
addressed equally with those of the Front Range.
QQ's Shanna Koenig attended the US 1st Committee on
Natural Resources' Subcommittee on Water and Power's
field hearing on the Fryingpan-Arkansas Project in Pueblo
June 1st. QQ is working with Senator Ken Salazar and
Congressmen Mark Udall, Ed Perlmutter and John Salazar
to make sure they understand the West Slope .issues related
to the PSOP project, and to participate in the drafting of
future legislation.

The Northwest Loan Fund finally has a full board -for
the first time in more than a year.
The board has been looking for representatives from Pitkin
and Grand Counties for about 18 months. This year, Pitkin
County helped in the search by advertising the vacancy,
interviewing candidates and nominating Jamie Knowlton,
longtime Coloradan and attorney-at-law, as its representa-
tive.
Jaye Thompson is the new representative from Grand
County. He is a recent transplant from California, and
works for Bank of the West.
Both new representatives have committed to a four-year
term. They attended their first NLF board meeting June
18 where they were welcomed by Director June Walters
and the rest of the board. The meeting was an ideal first
meeting for Jamie and Jaye, as it was a refresher and orien-
WEATHERIZATION
tation on the history and policies of NLF, and a review
of the new Colorado Development Block Grant (CDBG)
application process.
The NLF also recognized the 20-year anniversary of its
Jackson County representative, Charline Boss.
The board also reviewed two new applications at its meet-
ing. It approved a $100,000 loan for a retail business in
Glenwood Springs, with contingencies.
The NLF still has almost $250,000 of revolved funds avail-
able.
If you would like to learn more about the NLF at one of
your municipal or county meetings, or know of a local eco-
nomic development organization that could benefit from
its support, please contact June Walters at (970) 468-0295,
ext. 119, or email her at NLFJuneC>colorado.net.
Alnother stellar year ahead
July 1 st begins a new fiscal year for NWCCOG's Weather-
izationprogram -one that Director Steve Getz expects to
be the best ever.
NWCCOG anticipates receiving almost $1.3 million in
combined funds (Federal, Xcel, State and local match funds)
for its Weatherization program this year. This budget will
allow the team to continue its efforts to do the most for
each client, including weatherizing the home and replacing
inefficient furnaces and refrigerators.
NWCCOG's Weatherization program checks each refrig-
eratorandfurnace for their energy consumption and safety.
Inefficient furnaces are replaced with 90%-efficient mod-
els, and inefficient refrigerators with Energy Star-rated
models. Over the past two years, NWCCOG has replaced
more than 40% of refrigerators in clients' homes.
The budget for the new fiscal year also includes funds for
12 solar panel installations, as the State continues the solar
panel pilot project it began in January, and two new ve-
hicles for the installation teams, an insulation truck and a
new van.
This is not the first time Steve has proclaimed that
NWCCOG's Weatherization department is having its best
year ever. After all, last year it was ranked the #1 Weather-
ization Team in the State. But, he explained, it's not as
much about their ranking as it is what they can do for their
clients. Each year they're able to serve more clients and do
more for their clients.
"We just keep hitting one highwater mark after another,"
Steve said. "Each year is better than the last."

In March, NWCCOG hired Paul Knight and Aaron
Simmon to join its Silverthorne crew. Both Paul and Aaron
have extensive experience in heating and construction. Please

STAFF SPOTLIGHT
Ann Marie Jensen
•
nn Marie Jensen's role as part of the
NWCCOG Team may keep her behind-the-
scenes, but her work as NWCCOG's Fiscal Assis-
tant touches every program and every employee in the
organization.
Ann Marie is originally from California. She grew up in
Santa Barbara and went to San Diego State. It was after her
second trip to Summit County on vacation that Ann Marie
decided to pack up her bags and move here. That was in
1994, and she's been here ever since.
Ann Marie worked as an accountant for Copper Moun-
tain Resort for a year before moving to Mike Kurth's Sum-
mit Bookkeeping and Payroll in 1995. Like Mike
(NWCCOG's Fiscal Officer), Ann Marie works as a con-
tractor for NWCCOG. She began working with Energy
Management Director Steve Getz, by paying bills and han-
dlingstate reporting for the Weatherization program. Since
then, her job has expanded to include paying bills and pro-
cessingpayroll for all programs and departments.
In addition to working directly with Weatherization, Ann
Marie is also in charge of handling state reporting and pay-
ingbills for Jean Hammes and the Alpine Area Agency on
Aging.

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
Don Parsons
or NWCCOG Executive Committee member Don
Parsons, it's important to make a difference... in the
world and in one's community, and working region-
ally is an important means of doing so.
Don was elected to NWCCOG's Executive Committee
this year, after replacing fellow Dillon Councilmember,
Judee Cathrall, as the Town's NWCCOG representative in
2006.
He says working with NWCCOG has been an invaluable
experience for both Dillon and himself, personally. When
asked which regional issue NWCCOG is involved in is
the most important to Dillon, Don can't name just one -
mountain pine beetles, aging services, surveys, weatheriza-
tion, immigration, housing... the list goes on.
"It's been a great learning opportunity," Don says of his
time with NWCCOG, adding that he passes what he learns
there to the Council and staff at Dillon.
Though Don has been a Summit County homeowner for
30 years, he only moved here full-time four years ago when
his daughter (who works as a public health nurse for Sum-
mitCounty) announced she was expecting his first grand-
child. He is a retired general surgeon that worked for the
Kaiser Permanente Program in Denver, spent 10 years work-
ing in Public Health in Washington DC, and was on the
faculty at the University of Colorado.
Don may be retired now, but that doesn't mean he isn't

Ann Marie lives in Frisco with her longtime boyfriend,
Daymon, their dog, Rainbow, and cat, Aja. When she isn't
crunching numbers, she's usually enjoying the outdoors -
running, hiking, backpacking, skiing or gardening. Ann
Marie also loves to travel. Most recently, she went to
Panama to visit her parents who live there on their boat.

busy. In addition to the typical Summit County activities
(skiing, hiking, etc.), he spends a lot of his time involved
in the community.
"I get a very important sense of accomplishment and plea-
sure by trying to bring about changes in the world," Don
says.
When he's not working for the Town or with NWCCOG,
Don also serves on several community boards. He is the
President of the Colorado Public Health Association, and
serves on the boards for the Lake Dillon Performing Arts,
the hospital and the Summit County Housing Authority.
"I spend a fair amount of time involved in the commu-
nity," Don says modestly.
