The direction reaffirmed policy decisions established years earlier in the town's ongoing effort to address the various conflicts associated with the current state of loading and delivery in the Village.

Based on feedback from the Working Group, staff is prepared to make the following adjustments to improve the current loading and delivery network beginning with the start of the 2007-08 ski season: • Identify additional loading spaces on east Gore Creek Drive, along East Meadow Drive (east and west of Bridge Street), and the north and south sides of the International Bridge. • Assign small delivery trucks (UPS, USPS, Fed Ex, etc.) to use designated loading zones during restricted periods. • Introduce new Code of Conduct for delivery drivers as standard operating procedure. • Create and distribute a loading and delivery map for new drivers. • Provide advance notification when special events necessitate changes in loading and delivery policies. • Expand staffing hours of code enforcement officers at Checkpoint Charlie from the current 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. operation to 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. • Increase police enforcement of existing policies. • Install technical platform that will enable the eventual use of video cameras at strategic locations in the Village, such as Hanson Ranch Road, for improvement in enforcement from Checkpoint Charlie. With the exception of the adjustments listed above, vendors are making arrangements to service their Vail customers this winter based on the current guidelines. However, following the conclusion of the ski season, when more information will be known about the functionality of the newly constructed delivery bays, it is recommended a discussion be held with the Town Council to seek direction as it relates to the three options developed by the Working Group.

BACKGROUND At the Town Council meeting on June 19, 2007, staff received direction to develop aCouncil-supported operational plan for the successful use of a dispersed loading and delivery network in Vail Village. The direction reaffirmed policy decisions established years earlier in the town's ongoing effort to address the various conflicts associated with the current state of loading and delivery in the Village. With the completion or near completion of shared delivery bays at One Willow Bridge Road, Vail Plaza Hotel & Club and Mountain Plaza (formerly Front Door), staff convened a stakeholder Working Group during the summer to discuss the use and coordination of these additional options, as well as an assessment of the current policies. The purpose of today's discussion is to provide an update on this work, discuss operational modifications planned for the upcoming winter season and identify next steps. II. HISTORY The lack of adequate loading and delivery facilities in Vail Village has long. been thought to be among the resort's original design flaws. Problems associated with commercial loading and delivery in Vail were identified as early as 1973 when authors of a master planning document noted, "...it is literally impossible to walk without conflict with moving autos, parking autos, or unloading trucks...the presence of the delivery vehicles, trucks of all sizes, in the pedestrian areas is a significant problem." By 1977, leaders adopted a resolution which expressed the community's intent to establish pedestrian malls limiting vehicular use in Vail Village by which commercial vehicle access was to be limited to properties where no other reasonable means of access exists. A year later, the Town Council passed an ordinance restricting vehicular access to Vail Village. Then in 1990, the Vail Village Master Plan identified "enhancement of the walking experience throughout the Village" as a top priority with recommendations to minimize the amount of vehicular traffic to the greatest extent possible. Continued emphasis on Vail's pedestrianization was identified in 1993 with the Vail Transportation Master Plan in which suggested alternatives ranged from a tunnel system, to a centralized system as well as a decentralized operation. In 1998, a traffic count identified 1,300 vehicles, including 300 delivery trucks, in the pedestrian area of Vail Village during a 10-hour period. From there, the town, through the development review process, began requesting the creation of publicly- accessible dispersed loading and delivery bays as part of private development projects. The goal of creating dispersed loading and delivery facilities is to equally distribute delivery bays throughout the commercial areas of town to service the Village and to enhance the pedestrian experience of Vail. III. NEW INFRASTRUCTURE Opportunities to add a dispersed loading and delivery network to key areas of the Village have been underway for the past three years as part of Vail's~ redevelopment. In all, 27 delivery bays are being constructed for community use as part of the following developments: 17 bays at Mountain Plaza (formerly Front Door); 1 at One Willow Bridge Road; 4 at Vail Plaza Hotel ~ Club; and 5 at Solaris. In addition, LionsHead will be served by 8 public use bays under construction at the Arrabelle at Vail Square. With many of these bays nearing completion, the town has been consulting with the loading and delivery stakeholder group to provide recommendations for use of the new facilities and to evaluate current operations. IV. LOADING & DELIVERY WORKING GROUP ACTIVITIES Appointed by the Town Manager in July 2007, the Loading and Delivery Working Group represents numerous stakeholder groups impacted by the issue. The group is comprised of 17 members: Vail Town Council • Rod Slifer, Town Council • Farrow Hitt, Town Council Retail • Bill Shoff, Gorsuch • Troy Goldenberg, Troy's Ski Shop Restaurants • Matt Morgan, Sweet Basil • Michael Staughton, Los Amigos/Russells Residential • Bill Hanlon, resident Lodging • Paul Johnston, Christiania Lodge • Bob Fritch, Sitzmark Lodge Vendors • Bob Dubois, Orrison/Innermountain • Brad Ryan, Sysco • Jack Egger, HVH Transportation • James Cook, Shamrock Foods • Michael Hinkley,-Coors • Jim Armstrong, US Postal Service Chamber Kay Ferry., Vail Chamber & Business Association Michael Robinson, Vail Valley Partnership Facilitated by Stan Zemler, the group met five times during the summer. Their activities included development of project goals, evaluation of current operations, and development of three options for future consideration. A summary of their work is presented below: Loading and Delivery Goals Goal #1 2 With a goal to enhance the pedestrian experience during peak guest activity periods and to honor the residential character of the neighborhood, there will be "quiet" times when vehicles will be prohibited from the streets. This will result in a reduction of noise and pollution, and an improvement in the overall aesthetics of the Village. Goal # 2 Deliveries will occur in a timely and efficient manner. Goal #3 Minimize cost increases. Goal #4 Create minimal impact on vendors delivering goods and merchants; isn't onerous to vendors or merchants. Goal #5 Eliminate inefficiency and violations of parking. Goal #6 Being safe, efficient and cost-effective are key. Goal #7 By creating periods in which vendors, in partnership with the business community, use on-street deliveries to maximize efficiencies, the timely and efficient deliveries of today will be maintained or improved. Goal #8 When the on-street option is unavailable, the use and management of public loading and delivery bays will serve as an additional option for the movement of goods and services to businesses and will not interfere with the flow of pedestrians. Goal #9 Exceptions will be well defined. Goal #10 Above all, the safety of all involved will be at the forefront.

What Doesn't Work Currently • Size of spaces too small to accommodate large trucks. • Police enforcement is lacking. • Large trucks on Gore Creek Drive after 9 a.m. are unsightly and detract from pedestrian ambiance. • Conflicts between best times to access businesses and merchant/owner availability to accept deliveries. • Emergency service vehicle (plumber, carpet cleaning, etc.) access sometimes difficult. • Traffic gets backed up when someone stops to deliver on Bridge Street. • Conflicts between pedestrians and delivery carts. • Special events set-up and tear-down is challenging by 8:30 a.m. • Need a point of contact for drivers to report their arrival status, especially if they're running late due to weather. • Presence of large trucks is not in keeping with pedestrian nature of the Village. Development of Three Options for Future Consideration The Working Group has concluded a dispersed system will augment, not replace the current ability for on-street deliveries during designated hours. Three options were identified and reviewed. The Group recommends implementation of a dispersed system to occur following the 2007-08 ski season with modifications as required. Option 1 On-Street Deliveries • Bridge Street and Hanson Ranch Road, 4:00 a:m. to 8:30 a.m. • Gore Creek Drive, 4:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. Required Use of Designated Off-site Areas • Beyond the restricted times. 4 Pros and Cons • This option works well for restaurants, but it doesn't work well for retail deliveries, because the shops aren't open and drivers don't have keys. • This would case a huge "scramble" for everyone to get out by 8:30 a.m.; possible conflicts with pedestrians at the 8:30 a.m. time period. • Impacted lodges are opposed to 4 a.m. start; guests should have the ability to sleep longer than 4 a.m. • More closely meets the long-term goals of the town's master plans. Option 2 On-street Deliveries • Bridge Street and Hanson Ranch Road 4:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m • Gore Creek Drive, 4:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Required Use of Designated Off-site Areas • Beyond the restricted times. Pros and Cons • This option is better for accessing retail businesses. • Provides better flow for pedestrians and deliveries. • Impacted lodges are opposed to 4 a.m. start; guests should have the ability to sleep longer than 4 a.m. • Does not meet the long-term goals of the town's master plans. Option 3 On-street Deliveries • Bridge Street and Hanson Ranch road 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. • Gore Creek Drive, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Required Use of Designated Off-site Areas • Beyond the restricted times. Pros and Cons • This option is too confined; not enough time to get the job done; unrealistic. • This option is the only option that addresses early morning disruption of lodging guests. • Best meets the long-term goals of the town's master plans. Proposed Code of Conduct for Delivery Drivers • .Turn off engine and refrigeration. • Keep conversations quiet. • Take care to be as quiet as possible, especially with movement of ramps.. • Turn radios and cell phones down. • Use rubber tires on your two-wheelers, where possible. • Use common sense -people are sleeping in the early morning hours. 5 V. RECOMMENDATIONS, ACTIONS & NEXT STEPS Based on feedback from the Working Group, staff is prepared to make the following adjustments to improve the current loading and delivery network beginning with the start of the 2007-08 ski season: • Identify additional loading spaces on east Gore Creek Drive, along east Meadow Drive (east and west of Bridge Street), and the north and south sides of the International Bridge. • Assign small delivery trucks (UPS, USPS, Fed Ex, etc.) to use designated loading zones during restricted periods. • Introduce new Code of Conduct for delivery drivers as standard operating procedure. • Create and distribute a loading and delivery map for new drivers. • Provide advance notification when special events necessitate changes in loading and delivery policies. • Expand staffing hours of code enforcement officers at Checkpoint Charlie from the current 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. operation to 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. • Increase police enforcement of existing policies. • Install technical platform that will enable the eventual use of video cameras at: strategic locations in the Village, such as Hanson Ranch Road, for improvement in enforcement from Checkpoint Charlie. With the exception of the adjustments listed above, vendors are making arrangements to service their Vail customers this winter based on the current guidelines. However, following the conclusion of the ski season, when more information will be known about the functionality of the newly constructed delivery bays, it is recommended a discussion be held with the Town Council to seek direction as it relates to the three options developed by the Working, Group. While the Working Group has completed its assigned task, it is recommended that members be convened on an as-needed basis as issues arise. VI. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL Provide feedback on the modifications and next, steps, as needed. VII. APPENDIX A. Recommended Exceptions B. Working Group Ranking Exercise of 3 Options (high, low, medium) 6 Appendix A -Loading & Delivery Exceptions The following exceptional circumstances will be managed by the PD staff at Checkpoint Charlie: • Large volume Current practices with an attempt to schedule during "free" time Town Manager will have the ability to extend hours due to unusual circumstances. • Galleries Current practices with an attempt to schedule during "free" time. • Flower shoplperishables Propose once the."free" time is over, use authorized loading and delivery spaces. • Large Items (furniture, etc.) Current practices with an attempt to schedule during "free" time. • Weather Propose once the "free" time is over, use all authorized loading and delivery spaces. • Mechanical breakdown Propose once the "free" time is over, use all authorized loading and delivery spaces. • Service trucks (i.e. plumbers) Current practices with an attempt to schedule during "free" time; emergencies addressed on a case basis. • Moving Vans Current practices with an attempt to schedule during "free" time. • Road closures Propose once the ".free" time is over, use all authorized loading and delivery spaces. • Couriers Propose once the "free" time is over, use all authorized loading and delivery spaces. • New drivers Same as current with an attempt to schedule during "free" time. Rules and maps will be on the Town Web Site. Expectation delivery companies work to train new drivers. One-time drivers will work with trade organizations to provide the information. A request was made to show business locations on the maps. • Private Auto Deliveries (added since the pervious meeting) Deliveries which are not heavy. We could designate 30 minute spaces on the top deck of the parking structure for those deliveries. Itrs a shorter time to drive frontage Road and walk from structure as it is to drive to Checkpoint Charlie and walk and drive back to frontage road. A request was made to identify additional spaces around town. • Deliveries which are heavy Same as current with attempt to schedule during "free time." • Hazardous materials Same as current with an attempt to schedule during "free time." 7 • Personal vehicles Same as current if access to an establishment with private parking is the destination. • Special events All special events are reviewed by the TOV Event Review Committee to determine load in/out and parking needs; then managed by Checkpoint Charlie. • CME, taxis, limousines-until 10:00 pm (in place now) If it requires large loading of baggage attempt to park close but not on Bridge Street during peak pedestrian times. • Taxis and limousines-after 10:00 pm (in place now) i. Taxis/Limos may not drive on Bridge Street to drop off or pick up . passengers unless a special circumstance exists such as assisting an injured or handicapped passenger. ii. Taxis may not stage at the intersection of Bridge Street and Gore Creek Drive but may pick up passengers that have called to arrange a pickup and are waiting at the intersection. iii. Taxis may not stage in the Village core area prior to 10pm. Limos are not authorized to stage in the Village core area. iv. Taxi companies may stage up to two taxis each in the loading zone on the south side of Gore Creek Drive between Checkpoint Charlie and the Squash Blossom. Taxis may not stage any closer to Bridge Street than this. Passengers will be able to hail taxis from the intersection of Bridge Street and Gore Creek Drive. v. Each taxi company may stage one taxi in the loading zone north of Checkpoint Charlie on the south side of the International Bridge. These taxis can then move up to the loading zone indicated in #4 as space becomes available. • Meal deliveries Propose. once the "free" time is over, use courier spaces on the map. Other Issues: • Post office, UPS, Fed Ex Propose once the "free" time is over use courier spaces on the map. Identify an acceptable location near Gorsuch or Golden Bear to service: that area. • Some Town of Vail vehicles Same as current with an attempt to schedule during "free" time trash and' emergencies excepted. Use of courier spaces for non-emergencies. • Trash Same as current between 7:00 AM and 8:30 AM. • Holiday season Same as current with an attempt to schedule-during "free" time Town Manager will have the ability to extend hours due to unusual circumstances. • Off-season flexibility If construction/maintenance related will be addressed in the staging permits issued. • Handicapped vehicles There are 2 hour accessible spaces at Mill Creek Court, and one at Checkpoint Charlie All day spaces are provided at the Parking Structure. Look at expanding the number of spaces in town. Horse carriages Load in and Load out will occur at a staging area or north of the international Bridge and the truck/trailer will be moved off site. Off site loading and delivery systems are full (added since the previous meeting) Town Manager will have the ability to extend hours due to unusual circumstances. If this becomes an ongoing occurrence, this committee. will be reconvened to see what adjustments and management systems need to be put in place to remedy the situation. 9 Appendix B -Loading & Delivery Working Group Ranking Exercise of 3 Options (high, low, medium) Loadin and Delive Goal Measurements Option 1 Option 2 Option 3 Enhance the edestrian ex erience 1 3 3 Reduce Noise Pollution 2 3 2 Reduce Air Pollution 2 1 3 Increase Aesthetics of the Villa e 1 3 3 Timel Deliveries 2 1 3 Efficient Deliveries 2 1. 3 Minimize Cost Increases 2 1 3 Minimal Im act and not Onerous to Vendors 2 1 3 Minimal Im act and not Onerous to Merchants 2 1 . 3 Effective loadin olic enforcement 3 3 3 Safet of Vendors 2 1 3 Safet of Pedestrians 2 1 3 Total 23 20 35 Exceptions will be defined n/a n/a n/a KEY -Ranking 1 best meets the goal measurement, 3 least meets the goal measurement -Option 1 in at 4 AM out by 8:30 AM -Option 2 in at 4 AM off Bridge Street by 8:30 AM; off Gore Creek Drive by 11:30 AM (Note: A compromise option may be off Gore Creek Drive by 10:30 AM) -Option 3 in at 7 AM off Bridge Street by 8:30 AM off Gore Creek Drive by 9 AM 10 Getting Going on Housing A plan shot starts in 2008 to move forward on the Urban Land Institute's recommendation to develop an e{fective workforce housing program. . ~~ A positive step forward. Commence implementation of the ULI recommendations under the direction and management of the Economic Council. Create a strong leadership force representing top leadership from both the public and private sector. ~~Assemble a coalition of county, town and private sector funding. Locate the housing office independently to promote a sense of neutrality and private sector entrepreneurism and flexibility. Use the Economic Council to begin ramp-up activities for the remainder of 2007 with a full follow-on funding commitment for 2008. The benefits of this plan: It demonstrates positive, decisive action and can be implemented NOW. It can move quickly and nimbly and can balance different town or private sector interests. It does not lock any participants into long term commitments. -The ECEC already has the talent, basic infrastructure and knowledge of the housing issue: The ECEC is perceived as a trusted and politically neutral organization and it works comfortably with both the private and public sectors. It is far better positioned to attract and engage private sector participation.

One aspect of encouraging positive outcomes during such encounters is by focusing attention on developing less lethal strategies that balance minimal use of force with the operational necessity of arresting or disarming individuals. An important part of a less lethal strategy involves the identification and deployment of weapons and other technology. The goal is to provide officers with alternatives to deadly force in order to minimize harm to community members and police. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Scientist Jack Cover began experimenting with electricity as anon-deadly weapon. He discovered when short duration (milliseconds), high energy DC electric impulses were applied to humans, immediate incapacitation almost always occurred, without direct negative side effects. This finding led to a delivery system called the Taser. The term "Taser" is often used generically to describe electronic restraint devices (ERD). However, Taser is a registered trade name fora particular manufacturer of ERD. The Taser serves as an electro- muscular disruptor which overrides the central nervous system. Discussion: Taser relies on tecluiology differing from other police less-lethal force options. OC (pepper) spray, the police baton, and non-deadly impact projectiles all rely on pain to overcome a subject's resistance. Unfortunately, a number of people encountered by police use mind altering drugs, abuse alcohol, or are mentally ill. These factors, separately or in combination, can increase pain tolerance and decrease the effectiveness of force options which rely on pain compliance. When non-deadly force options are ineffective, additional force options employed to stop the threat sometimes result in serious injury, such the use of the baton or handgun. These issues generated renewed interest in ERD technology not solely relying on pain to be effective. According to Taser International, Tasers have been adopted by more that eleven thousand of approximately seventeen thousand police departments and sheriff's offices across the country. The effects of the Taser are well documented, but vary somewhat depending on the subject and circwnstances. The following are typical examples of subject reactions to the electrical charge:. • Falling immediately to the ground • Freezing in place (involuntary muscular contractions) • Yelling, screaming or being silent • Feeling dazed for several seconds or minutes • Temporary tingling sensation • Lack of memory or sensation to pain • Marks caused by Taser probes The Taser X26 is lithium battery powered and may use both conventional and laser sights for targeting. One variant is capable of providing a video record of the deployment (Tasercam). The Taser is aimed and fired much like a standard police sidearm. Two methods of deployment are available. In the first method, the officer fires the Taser probes from a distance of no more than thirty five feet. When fired, the. Taser deploys two metal probes propelled by compressed nitrogen gas. The probes have the appearance of small, straightened fish hooks and are connected to the Taser by fine insulated wire. When bot1~ probes strike the target, the device automatically delivers several seconds of twenty six watt electric current. An additional five seconds of current is applied with each additional pull of the trigger. The second method is the direct contact (drive stun) mode which delivers current without probe deployment. No probes are fired; rather the Taser is applied directly to the subject. This method is~ used in circumstances when an officer cannot achieve a distance separation from a subject. Much has been publicized (fact and myth) regarding the effectiveness and potential lethality of Taser deployment by police officers. Some published articles attribute in-custody deaths to the Taser. This is a subject of continuing intense study. It appears in most instances, other overarching factors such as the ingestion of illegal substances, extreme intoxication, excited delirium, and the exertion of a violent encounter with arresting officers contributed to lethal outcomes in association with a small percentage of Taser applications. Tt is clear the use of Tasers has reduced the need for deadly force in some situations. A study conducted in Great Britain provides insight into Taser use. It states, "Our overall conclusion, however, is that the evidence suggests that Taser has been effective in preventing incidents from escalating to the point where lethal force was required. In many instances the tln•eat of Taser-rather than its actual use- has made the individual become compliant." After extensive research, the Police Executive Research Forum (PEKE) and the International Association of Chief's of Police (IACP) endorse the use of electronic restraint devices. They recommend departments considering acquisition of ERD's have well defined policies and stringent training protocols in place prior to issuance to officers. Why is the police department considering deployment of the Taser electronic restraint device? A review of the police department's use of force reports for the period January, 2003-September, 2007, reveal an average of nine incidents per year in which a Taser could have been legitimately deployed. The breakdown per year is: 2003- 8 2004- 13 2005- 7 2006- 10 2007- 7 (thru September 17, 2007) On a per amlum basis, these numbers appear relatively low. Unfortunately, aggregate numbers do not provide the full scope. of the issue. During this period, two officers were forced to separate from the police department as a result of permanent injuries sustained during violent encounters with suspects. Also, during this period, the Town of Vail's worker's compensation insurance carrier, Pinnacol Assurance, paid out $148,184.68 in claims to police officers as a result of injuries sustained in violent encounters. According to Taser International, the following police agencies have reported a decrease in officer injuries during their reporting periods: • Orange County, Florida- 80% decrease from 2000-2002 • South Bend, hldiana- 66% decrease from 2003-2006 • Austin, Texas- 50% decrease in 2004 Further, electronic restraint devices provide an option to other less-lethal devices in particularized environments. For example, the Vail Valley Medical Center has expressed concenis with the use of OC (pepper) spray within the emergency department. OC spray requires decontamination of the suspect, other effected parties, and emergency room equipment exposed to the pepper powder. The use of OC spray is also a concern in high density enviromments such as schools or restaurants. Electronic restraint devices are much more discriminatory in these environments. Also, the Taser has been successfillly used in encounters with aggressive animals, such as dogs or wildlife. Recommendations: The Vail Police Department is proposing the purchase and issue of the Taser electronic restraint device. Currently, each officer carries two types of less lethal equipment; OC (pepper) spray and the ASP collapsible baton. As part of our methodology, the department . will adopt the International Association of Chiefs of Police Nine Step Strategy for Effective Deployment. The nine steps are: • Build a leadership team (Please see attachment #1.) • Place the ERD on the use of force continuum (Please see attachment #2.) • Assess the cost and benefit of using ERD's • Identify roles and responsibilities for ERD deployment • Develop ERD policies and procedures (Note: The TOV's liability insurance carrier, CIRSA, has a model policy for ERD use.. Please see attachment #3.) • Engage in Community Outreach • Create a comprehensive training program • Use a phased approach • Assess ERD use and determine next steps Costs: The, police department proposes the purchase often Taser electronic restraint devices equipped with the optional Tasercam. A breakdown of the purchase costs is: • Unit cost- $1204.95 (with Tasercam) _ $12,049.95 • Two training cartridges for devices @ $45.94 per unit = $918.80 • Download kit- $149.95 • Total Cost- $13,118.69 Conclusion: These facts illustrate the need for an additional intermediate force option. The acquisition of the Taser electronic restraint device may likely decrease officer injuries, decrease injuries to criminal suspects, and reduce worker's compensation payouts. The police department has currently budgeted $5,200.00 in 2007 and 2008 funds. The remaining costs will be funded from asset forfeiture monies.

DEFINITIONS As used in this policy, "Electronic Restraint Device" or "ERD" means a Conducted Energy Weapon, authorized and issued by this Department, which employs electro-muscular disruption (EMD) technology, causing temporary incapacitation to the individual. (CACP 20.16) B. .TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION (CACP 20.13, 20.14, 20.15): 1. Officers must successfully complete the departmentally approved ERD training and certification program, to include written and practical tests, before they are authorized to carry and use the ERD. 2. Officers who are assigned an ERD will be required to successfully complete the annual recertification training as determined by the Training Command. 3. Officers must successfully complete the departmentally approved advanced/instructor ERD program, to include written and practical tests, before being assigned to serve as ERD instructors. 4. In addition, ongoing training and periodic updates shall be provided, via bulletins, in- service trainings, daily briefings, and/or scenario-based discussions, concerning less lethal force, including the use of ERD. 5. Training topics shall include, at a minimum, the following: a. The Department's definition of "less lethal force"; b. The less lethal force options approved by the Department and available to officers; c. Department-approved techniques and strategies for less lethal force weapons; d. Department-approved target zones for less lethal force options; e. Legal review and updates; f. Justification for deployment and use of less lethal force weapons; g. Prohibitions on use of less lethal force weapons; h. De-escalation techniques; i. Reporting requirements; j. Weapons inspection, maintenance, and storage; and k. Medical attention treatment and decontamination protocols, including probe removal C. CARRYING OF ERD (CACP 20.17) l.. Only departmentally-approved and -issued ERDs and ERD cartridges may be carried. 2. The ERD will not be altered or modified in anyway. 3. ERDs must be stored in the ERD storage locker and be connected to their charging units. ERDs shall be transported either in their protective carrying case or in a department approved holster. 4. The ERD must be worn on the officer's weak side in order to avoid accidental deployment of the wrong weapon. 5. Only properly functioning and charged ERDs shall be carried. Before each deployment, the ERD shall be inspected for damage and tested for a proper pulse rate. Any damage or improper functioning must immediately be reported to the Chief of Police or designee. 6. h1 addition to any other downloading requirement established herein, officers will be required to download data from their assigned ERD when: a. The ERD is reassigned to another officer. In such situations, one copy of the data report will be filed with the officer's property inventory~and one copy will be retained by the officer for one year from the date of downloading. b. The ERD is retired from the active police inventory. In these situations, the data report will be retained by Police Equipment for one year from the date of downloading. D. AUTHORIZED AND PROHIBITED USES OF ERD (CACP 20.18, 20.19, 20.20) 1. The use of an ERD is a use of force for reporting purposes. An ERD may not be employed unless its level of force is justified: 2. The ERD may be used to control a dangerous or violent subject when deadly force does not appear to be justified and or necessary; or attempts to subdue the subject by other conventional tactics have been, or will likely be, ineffective in the situation at hand; or there is reasonable expectation that it will be unsafe for officers to approach within contact range of the subject. The ERD may be used against an aggressive animal. 3. The ERD is intended for use as defensive, less lethal weapon. Officers may use the ERD to incapacitate, control, and apprehend a dangerous, violent or potentially violent subject or a subject who is aggressively resisting. 4. Only one officer will deploy an ERD on an individual, unless it is obvious the deployment was not effective. ~. The ERD will not be utilized under the following circumstances: a. Against any subject who is already in handcuffs or other restraints, unless the suspect is actively resisting or exhibiting active aggression, and/or to prevent the suspect from harming himself/herself or others. b. Against a person displaying passive resistance (passive resistance means a subject offers no physical resistance to arrest, simply goes limp, or makes no overt act of aggressive behavior); c. When the officer knows that flammable liquids or gases (including but not limited to alcohol-based Oleoresin Capsicum [OC] spray carriers) are .present; d. Against a woman who is obviously pregnant; a child who, by physical statLire and size appears to be under the age of 14; an individual who is visibly frail; or an elderly individual; e. In a location where a fall by the suspect may cause substantial injury or death; £ Against a suspect in physical control of a vehicle in motion (including but not limited to an automobile, truck, motorcycle, or ATV), except when exigent circumstances exist. 4. Officers shall: a. Give explicit verbal commands to the suspect prior to deployment, except when the suspect, officers or citizens might be placed in jeopardy by first warning the suspect that use of the ERD is imminent; b. Avoid hitting the subject in sensitive tissue areas such as head, face, neck, groin or female breast area; c. Avoid the deployment of the ERD against a subject operating a motor vehicle, bicycle, skateboard, or riding on any conveyance where they may fall while the vehicle is in motion; d. Use the ERD for one standard cycle (five seconds), then stop to evaluate the . situation. If one or more subsequent cycles are necessary, the number and duration of such cycles shall be limited to the minimum activations necessary to place the subject in custody. E. MEDICAL TREATMENT (CACP 20.22) 1. Ordinarily, au officer will remove the ERD probe once the suspect is in custody. However, when a probe has penetrated sensitive tissue areas (groin, female breast, face, neck) EMS will be summoned to the scene. EMS will make a determination to remove probes or transport the suspect to the hospital. 2. To avoid the potential of positional asphyxia, all suspects, once handcuffed and in control, will be placed in an upright position. 3. After ERD use, officers will attempt to ascertain from the subject whether preexisting medical conditions (such as a history of heart problems) would warrant summoning EMS persomiel to the scene. 4. Officers will notify jail medical personnel, at the time.of booking, that the subject has been struck with ERD probes or received a drive stun. An examination should be conducted by jail medical personnel to determine whether the individual has suffered any injury, either directly from the ERD discharge or indirectly, such as by falling after incapacitation. F. REPORTING AND DOCUMENTATION (CACP 20.21) 1. The officer will notify his supervisor immediately after the deployment of a ERD or drive stun. 2. Any use of the ERD requires the officer to comply with use of force reporting procedures. 3. Photographs will be taken of probe/drive stun impact sites aild any other related injuries. 4. Probes and cartridge(s) should be carefully placed, sharp tip first, back into the expended cartridge bores and secured. Removed probes that have penetrated the body, should be treated as biohazards and safety precautions used. S. Cartridge(s) will be placed in a plastic property bag, a biohazard label attached, and submitted to the property unit for proper disposal. 6. Officers will document the submission of the probes and cartridge(s) in the offense report. 7. Officers will download the firing data from the ERD and attach a copy of this report to the Use of Force foi7n for review by the officer's chain of command. A second copy of the firing data report will be tagged for retention as evidence. This information is invaluable when investigating claims of improper or excessive use of force involving the device. Downloaded data shall be subject to random audits and reconciliations with use of force reports. G. SUPERVISORS' RESPONSIBILITIES (CACP 20.21) 1. Supervisors shall: a. Respond to the scene of-all deployments and/or drive-stuns. b. Insure all documentation and evidence is completed and submitted. c, Assure that the Use of Force Form has been reviewed for content and completeness. d. Forward a completed Use of Force Form with any attachments through chain of command to the Chief or designee, prior to entry into the Use of Force database. H. INVESTIGATION OF ERD USE a. The Department shall initiate a force investigation outside the chain of command when any of the following factors are involved: 1. A subject experiences death or serious injury; 2. A subject experiences prolonged ERD activation; 3. The ERD appears to have been used in a punitive or abusive manner; 4. There appears to be a substantial deviation from policy or training; 5. The ERD appears to have been utilized on a person in one of the categories set forth in Section D.S.e (a woman who is obviously pregnant; a child who, by physical stature and size appears to be under the age of 14; an individual who is visibly frail; or an elderly individual).

The Design Review Board has ruled on many applications requesting variance from the Duplex and Primary/Secondary Development section of the Design Review Standards and Guidelines, which states in part: "The purpose of this section is to ensure that duplex and primary/secondary development be designed in a manner that creates an architecturally integrated structure with unified site development. Dwelling units and garages shall be designed within a single structure with the use of unified architectural and landscape design. Unified architectural and landscape design shall include, but not be limited to, the use of compatible building materials, architectural style, scale, roof forms, massing, architectural details, site grading and landscape materials." Unified design therefore shall include all of the mentioned items and the DRB can add additional items. For many years the Board has consistently interpreted this section to deny duplex or primary/ secondary homes which want to present different facade materials and appearances. Further definition occurs in the Building Materials and Design section: "The same or similar building materials and colors shall be used on main structures and any accessory structures upon the site." Certainly the intent of the guidelines is to promote a similar appearance to all parts of a building and any accessory buildings. If this decision is overturned it opens up an opportunity for duplex homes, which are attached, to look substantially different from each other. This would set a dangerous precedent that the DRB would not be able to avoid in making future decisions. We don't want mirror images but we don't want incompatible structures either. The appeal claims the DRB has not applied the same standard to all types of residential development. That statement is not true. The DRB is very aware of its responsibility to apply guidelines and standards with uniformity. The appeal cites a statement made by a Board member that a similar application by a sinl;le family residence would be approved. The Board member was not speaking to an accessory structure situation but to putting stone on a single family residence. Regardless of the interpretation the appellant put on the statement, the Board member cannot speak for the entirE~ Board, only for himself. The appellant cited no decisions of the DRB to support his case. I also want you to know that the DRB offered to approve a change that would have only a minimal amount of stone outlining the garage doors on the east residence. But the east owner wanted no stone.

I also want you to know that the DRB offered to approve a change that would have only a minimal amount of stone outlining the garage doors on the east residence. But the east owner wanted no stone. The Board voted unanimously to deny DRB07-0330. PETER B DUNNING 1461 GREENHILL COURT VAIL, COLORADO To the members of the Vail Town Council Re: Howard Appeal This appeal is not an isolated situation. The Design Review Board has ruled on many applications requesting variance from the Duplex and Primary/Secondary Development section of the Design Review Standards and Guidelines, which states in part: "The purpose of this section is to ensure that duplex and primary/secondary development be designed in a manner that creates an architecturally integrated structure with unified site development. Dwelling units and garages shall be designed within a single structure with the use of unified architectural and landscape design. Unified architectural and landscape design shall include, but not be limited to, the use of compatible building materials, architectural style, scale, roof forms, massing, architectural details, site grading and landscape materials." Unified design therefore shall include all of the mentioned items and the DRB can add additional items. For many years the Board has consistently interpreted this section to deny duplex or primary/ secondary homes which want to present different facade materials and appearances. Further definition occurs in the Building Materials and Design section: "The same or similar building materials and colors shall be used on main structures and any accessory structures upon the site." Certainly the intent of the guidelines is to promote a similar appearance to all parts of a building and any accessory buildings. If this decision is overturned it opens up an opportunity for duplex homes, which are attached, to look substantially different from each other. This would set a dangerous precedent that the DRB would not be able to avoid in making future decisions. We don't want mirror images but we don't want incompatible structures either. The appeal claims the DRB has not applied the same standard to all types of residential development. That statement is not true. The DRB is very aware of its responsibility to apply guidelines and standards with uniformity. The appeal cites a statement made by a Board member that a similar application by a single family residence would be approved. The Board member was not speaking to an accessory structure situation but to putting stone on a single family residence.
