4. Chuck Ogilby ITEMIlTOPIC: Northwest Colorado Council of Governments
(NWCCOG) Water Quality/Quantity Update. (30 min.)
5. George Ruther ITEfl-'I/TOPIC: Vail's Front DoorNista Bahn Ski Yard. (10 min.)
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: Discuss opportunities for future
World Cup races and special events venues. (10 minutes)
6. Rachel Friede ITEAIIlTOPIC: A work session to discuss a prescribed regulations
amendment, pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town
Code, to Chapter 14-10, Design Review Standards and
Guidelines, Vail Town Code, in order to amend the wildfire roofing
regulations requiring Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof
materials in the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard
thereto. (15 min.)
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: In 2006, Town Departments
including Fire, Planning, Building, and Environment Health
collaborated to draft Wildfire Regulations that would reduce the
risk of destruction of property and the spreading of wildfires. In an
effort to provide the greatest improvement of building safety while
minimizing Staff time commitments, Staff proposed to require fire-
resistant roofs. Combustible roofing materials contribute to the
spreading of fire by emanating firebrands that travel from one
home to the next, and between homes and the forest. This effort
resulted in the adoption of Ordinance No. 3, Series of 2007 on
February 6, 2007, an ordinance requiring all structures within the
Town of Vail have Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof
covering materials, and expressly banning wood shake and wood
shingles.
Since the regulations were enacted, there have been development.
review applications for certain changes to nonconforming roofs
that have conflicted with aesthetic requirements for materials and
two-family dwellings. Title 14 requires compatibility among
exterior materials applied to both sides of two-family dwellings,
which the Design Review Board has consistently interpreted to
require uniform roof covering materials for duplex units. However,
the Design Review Board recently allowed one side of a non-
conforming duplex to reroof from wood shake to a synthetic
shake, while the other side was not required to reroof at the same
time. There have also been cases of single-family residences with
multiple roof covering materials approved. The Vail Town Council
commended the Design Review Board for their creative solutions
in these situations.
To address the issue of nonconformity, Staff is proposing
amendments to Chapter 14-10, Design Review Standards and
Guidelines, Vail Town Code. On December 10, 2007, the PEC
made a recommendation of approval, with modifications, to the
Vail Town Council. The PEC recommended that nonconforming
structures be allowed a 500 square foot addition without having to
re-roof the entire structure to come into compliance. They also
requested that the Design Review Board be given more latitude in
allowing creative solutions to design issues. The last modification
was to require a complete reroof after 50% of the roof is replaced
as maintenance or repair.
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Staff requests that the Vail
Town Council listen to the presentation., ask any pertinent
questions, and provide comments to Staff. Because this is a
worksession, Staff does not request that any action be taken at
this time.
7. Rachel Friede ITEMITOPIC: Discussion of Second reading of Ordinance No. 32,
Series of 2007, an Ordinance to enact prescribed regulation
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 seating forth details in regard thereto. (10 min.)
RACKGROUNC! RATIONALE: On October 8, 2007, .the PEC
made a recomrnendation to the Vail Town Council of approval,
with modifications. The PEC worked through the text
amendments and came up with compromises on the text
amendments that are now proposed in the ordinance.
On November 20, 2007, the Vail Town Council unanimously
approved, with codifications, Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007,
on first reading. The modifications to Ordinance No. 32, Series of
2007, included limiting display boxes to two per business frontage
and allowing specials boards to be freestanding when practical
difficulties exist for the specials boards to be attached to menu
boxes. The Vail Town Council also requested that staff draft
regulations for a leasing program of town-owned property to be
used for outdoor display of retail goods. The leasing program is
being proposed as a new Chapter in Title 8, Public Ways and
Property, Vail Town Code, and is included as part of Ordinance
No. 32, Series of 2007.
ACTION RE®UE;STED OF COUNCIL: Staff requests that the Vail
Town Council approve,' approve with modifications, or deny
Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007, on second reading.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Vail Town
Council approve Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007, on second
reading.

remodel and addition to the Rams-Horn Lodge Condominium
building, located at 416 Vail Valley Drive; Lot A, Block 3 and Tract

Development District No. 17, Rams-Horn Lodge Condominiums,
to allow for the remodel and addition to the Rams-Horn Lodge
building. Specifically, the Applicant proposes to add a forth story
to the existing three story building to increase the number of
dwelling units from fourteen (14) to sixteen (16), and to increase
the number of attached accommodation units from twenty-one
(21) to twenty-four (24). As well, the remodel is proposed to allow
for the expansion of certain existing units, the expansion and
enhancement of common lobby area and the addition of one (1)
on-site employee housing unit. Upon review of the request, the
Planning and Environmental Commission voted 5-0-1 (Pierce
recused) to forward a recommendation of approval, with
conditions, of the request to amend Special Development District
No. 17, Rams-Horn Lodge Condominiums, to the Vail Town
Council.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
Nina Timm, Housing Coordinator
DATE: December 18, 2007
SUBJECT: Proposal to release two Employee Housing Unit (EHU) deed restrictions
located at the Bell Tower Building (201 Gore Creek Drive) and create a
new deed restricted EHU at Altair Vail (4192 Spruce Way #A-201)
APPLICANT: Bell Tower Partners, LTD represented by Mauriello Planning Group
I. Introduction
On May 15, 2001, the Town of Vail became the beneficiary of two deed restricted
employee housing units (EHUs) located 201 Gore Creek Drive in the Bell Tower
Building. Located on the third floor, the two adjacent EHUs contain 355 square
feet and 242 square feet for a total of 597 deed restricted square feet. No parking
space is provided with either EHU. Since 2001, the EHUs have been
continuously rented to local employees.
The owners of the EHUs also own the adjacent third floor residence at the Bell
Tower, and have recently received approval for certain interior and exterior
alterations as part of an effort to update the appearance of the building and bring
the entire Bell Tower Building into compliance with all applicable building and
fire codes. The EHUs, as they currently exist, do not comply with building code
and it has proven difficult to design a solution to do so. If the request to release
the deed restrictions at the Bell Tower is granted, it is the owner's intention to
incorporate this square footage into their existing third floor dwelling unit. This
will alleviate the applicant's burden to meet certain requirements of building code
compliance.
While this is a request to "relocate" two specific EHUs, it is also part of a much
larger employee housing policy discussion. To date, the Town Council has not
adopted any policies to address a proposal to release an existing EHU deed
restriction in exchange for a new deed restriction at an alternative location.
II. Description of Request
In order to create a more livable situation for the residents of the EHUs as well as
bring the Bell Tower Building into code compliance, the owners are requesting a
release from the existing deed restricted EHUs located in the Bell Tower
Building. In exchange for this release, the applicant is proposing to provide a new
deed restriction on an existing 1,191 square foot unit in East Vail.
The applicant is proposing to deed restrict an existing dwelling unit located at
4192 Spruce Way #A-201. The unit is atwo-bedroom, two-full bath, top floor
unit. It is located on the Town of Vail bus route and provides two parking spaces.
The Town Council previously heard this request on October 16, 2007. Since that
meeting the zoning issues have been successfully resolved by the applicant and
the next step in the applicant's process is the request before Town Council to
direct the Town Manager to release the two existing deed restrictions at the Bell
Tower Building and replace them with a deed restriction on the Altair Vail unit.
A site visit to the Bell Tower EHUs has been scheduled for the December 18,
2007, Town Council Work Session. This will allow Town Council to better
understand the size and location constraints of the two existing deed restricted
EHUs.
III. Inclusionary Zoning Requirement for Conversion of 597 Square Feet
The Bell Tower Building is located in Commercial Core 1 and is therefore subject
to the Town's Inclusionary Zoning requirement. Ordinance No. 8, Series of 2007,
requires mitigation for 10% of net new residential floor area. As part of an
anticipated Design Review Board application for an interior conversion for the
addition of new Gross Residentual Floor Area (GRFA), the applicant will be
required to provide mitigation for 59.7 square feet of floor area. The established
2007 fee-in-lieu per square foot is $236.65. If the request to release the existing
EHU deed restrictions is approved and an interior conversion application is
approved to convert the EHU floor area into GRFA, a fee-in-lieu of $14,128 must
be paid to the Town of Vail's employee housing fund.
597 square feet x 10% = 59.7 x $236.65 = $14,128
IV. Staff Recommendation
On October 16, 2007, the Town Council heard this proposal, and generally did, not
support the applicant's proposal to exchange the EHU deed restrictions. Since
that meeting, the applicant has successfully resolved issues related to the Town's
Zoning Code. Therefore, the applicant is again requesting the Town Manager be
authorized to release the two existing Employee Housing Unit deed restrictions at
the Bell Tower building in exchange for a new Type IV EHU deed restriction at
Altair Vail, Unit # A-201. ,
Based on the size and configuration of the two existing EHUs at the Bell Tower
Building, staff recommends the Town Council authorizes the release of the two
existing EHU deed restrictions in exchange for Altair Vail Unit # A-201 being
deed restricted with a price appreciation cap and sold for a maximum initial sales
2
f
price of $178,650 (1,191 square feet x $150) to a qualified employee on the
existing Town of Vail Master Resale Lottery List. If Altair Vail is no longer an
option, staff recommends allowing the unit to be substituted with a like size and
quality unit elsewhere in the Town of Vail.
Other considerations could include:
- Provision of two deed restricted units as two units would be lost
o One new two-bedroom unit does not guarantee two
employees will be housed
- Allow the two existing units be turned into one, larger code
compliant deed restricted EHU
V. Action Requested of Town Council by the Applicant
A motion stating:
"Upon ~ demonstrated compliance with the Town of Vail's Zoning
Regulations the Town Manager is authorized to release the two existing
Employee Housing Unit deed restrictions at the Bell Tower building and
in exchange for this a new Type IV deed restricted EHU at Altair Vail
Unit # A-201 will be provided. The applicant is requesting approval for
release of the deed restrictions for the existing EHUs and shall provide the
new deed restricted unit at Altair Vail Unit #A-201 on January 3, 2008."

RE: Relocation of Employee Housing Units at the Bell Tower Building
Dear Mayor and Town Council:
I am writing to you as a long-term owner of coridominium unit within the Bell Tower
Building in Vail Village. My family and I have been guests to Vail for the last 30 plus
years and have owned a dwelling and two very small employee units within the Bell
Tower Building for over 25 years. We plan to be owners and visitors here for at least
another 25 years.
The owners of this aging building are in the process of completing a $6 million
renovation to the building and we believe transforming it into one of the most beautiful
buildings in Vail. We did this all without going through a major redevelopment process
and without requesting significant increases in floor area or building height. We chose
instead to maintain the bulk and mass. that existed on the site. I explain this only to
indicate to you our commitment to Vail and the character of the Village.
We are writing you to request that you allow us to release the current deed restriction
that exists for these two 252 sq. ft. employee units and allow us to instead deed
restriction a much larger 1,191 sq. ft. two bedroom unit in east Vail within the Altair Vail
complex. Below we have provided some background and discussion that we believe
demonstrates why this is a good idea and why it will help us and the Town resolve in a
very positive way some of the shortcomings of the existing employee units and the
existing deed restriction.
Background:
The EHUs were approved in 1979, with a redevelopment of the Bel{ Tower Building
(originally known as the Schober Building). At the time, 2 accommodation units were
converted to employee housing, with a condition that they would remain employee
housing for a period of 20 years. This restriction on the employee units expired in 1999
(attached a copy of the minutes from the Planning and Environmental Commission
meeting where this was approved (Exhibit A)). The minutes specifically reflect the
owners desire (and the Planning and Environmental Commission's agreement) to
.maintain the ability to change these units, should the situation change in the future. It
t
should be noted that a deed restriction was not required or recorded for these
employee units.
In 1988, the Town approved a condominium conversion on the property,
condominiumizing the commercial and residential uses on the site (previously all were
under single ownership). With this approval, the owner agreed to condition the same
employee units for a revised period of 15 years. This expired in 2004. Again, there was
never a formal deed restriction placed on the employee units. Attached is the staff
memorandum from this meeting (Exhibit B) and a new condo map for the Bell Tower
Building.
In 2001, we remodeled the second floor existing commercial office spaces into a
residential condominium. No Planning and Environmental Commission approvals were - ~ ~ ~, ~~ ~~ ~ ~ ~-
required, and no amendments to any previously approved conditional use permits
were processed as the residential use was a permitted use on the second floor of the
building. Staff required as part of the building permit that the employee units be
formally deed restricted (Exhibit C) despite the fact that there was nothing in the
application to remodel the second floor that would have triggered such a requirement.
In fact we were reducing the number of employees produced by the property by
replacing office space with a residential unit. I did not think much about it at the time
as I had always leased the spaces to employees and had understood that the
requirement for employee units was duE; to expire in 2004, three years from the date I
signed the deed restriction. I now understand that I may not have been "required" to
sign the deed restriction, but that is well behind us now.
I understand now that what I signed was a Type III Employee Housing Uriit designation
which requires a conditional use permit in the CCI zone district, but no conditional use
process (legal notice, notification of adjacent properties, public hearing) occurred as
legally required. Additionally, the deed restriction was signed by a planner, rather than
by the Town Manager, as is required on the form (Exhibit E). The validity of the process
by which the deed restriction was obtained and the lack of proper process by the Town
does call into question the force and effect of the deed restriction. I am not here
seeking to invalidate the 2001 deed restriction and only seek to improve and relocate
the deed restriction.
Employee Housing Code Compliance Issues:
As you are aware the standards by which buildings and dwelling units were constructed
in the 1970's differ substantially from today. As a result the existing EHU's are non-
conforming in several major ways. They do not meet the Town of Vail minimum
standards for'Type III" EHUS (as defined by 12-13-4) which requires 300 sq. ft. minimum of
floor area. They also would not meet the standards the Town adopted earlier this year
fora "Studio" EHU (as defined by Inclusionary Zoning, Section 12-24-3) which requires 438
sq. ft. minimum. The other non-code compliant and life safety issues include ingress
and egress, the existing exit balcony used by the two units, and the existing openings
(doors and windows) of the units.
2
The relocation of these units will solve one of the remaining major non-code compliant.
areas on the Bell Tower building. The proposed remodel of the third floor will complete
bringing the building up to today's standards.
Our Request and Summary:
We request that the Town allow us to remove the deed restriction for these two 252 sq.
ft. studio units and replace that with a deed restriction on a 1,191 two bedroom unit in
Altair Vail. We recognize that there are pros and cons to relocating these units from
Vail Village to East Vail but we believe that at the end of the day there are more pros
than cons. We believe this request can be supported for the following reasons:
• The new unit is much more livable in terms of square footage and format. A
family could reside in the new unit whereas the existing units are marginally
livable and would likely only cater to the very short term type of tenant;
• The increase in square footage from 504 sq. ft. to 1,191 sq. ft. mitigates the con of
losing units within the Vail Village making them more appropriate for a Fong term
local;
• The relocation of the employee units resolves significant life safety and other
code issues that exist with the units; and
• The relocation of the deed restriction resolves several procedural issues with
respect to the application of the 2001 deed restriction.
We have the Altair Vail unit under contract until January and hope that the Town can
agree with us that our proposal is reasonable and fair and acts to further the housing
goals of the Town. We are proud of our role in providing employee housing
opportunities in the past and want to continue that commitment into the future.
Sincerely,
D. Dean Macfarlan

Mr. Gramshammer was still very concerned about the effects
of increased traffic, more delivery trucks and the trash problems.
He stated these problems are very severe now.
Ron Todd assured Mr. Gramshammer that the Planning &
Environmental Commission has these very same concerns. The owner
of the restaurant in the Schober Building, Herman Staufer, Chen spoke
to the Commission. He also has the same concerns as Mr. Gramshammer,
but he believes that the owner of the Schober Building has a very good
attitude about his building, and is willing to enhance the appearance
of his building. This can't help but to improve the appearance of
the Vzllage as a whole.
Gerry White then made the Motion to approve the Conditional
IIse Permit for the Schober ?•uilding in Commercial Core I as presented.
Ron Todd seconded the Motion. Sandy Mills then made the comment
that with the reduction in square footage, where it does not affecC
the view corridors, and fits in zaell with the existing structure; she
feels this second proposal does meet the criteria set forth in the
Zoning 6rdinance and that the PEC has examined it thoroughly. Tice
Commission voted unanimous approval.

this proposal to the Commission. Jim Rubin explained to the Commission
that the staff is concerned with any encroachment on public ways. Sandy
MiI1s stated she feels this encroachment should not be allowed.

SUBJECT: A re es or~concIominium conversion of the Bell
Tower Building.
Applicant; Bell Tower Associates, Ltd,
I: THE REQUEST
~'
Bell Tower Associates, Ltd. desires to complete a
condominium conversion of the Bell Tower Building in order
to allow transfer of a portion of the building to one of
the existing commercial tenants. The owner has applied
through the Town of Vail subdivision regulations, Chapter
27.26 Condominium Conversion. There are nn PY;~+-;..~

condition of approval of thisµrequesta
and will be
II. CRITERIA TO EVALUATE THE PROPOSAL
Criteria to evaluate the condominiumization of the Bell
Tower Building is found in Section 17.26.060 of the
subdivision regulations which relate to all condominium
conversions, whether accommodation units are involved or
not. These criteria are set out for the condo conversion
application to ensure the performance of maintenance
responsibilities, to promote public health, safety and
welfare, to ensure that converted units meet reasonable
physical standards and to protect from unnecessary
eviction the residents of rental units being converted to
condominiums.
A. Section 17,26.080 of the subdivision regulations
requires the PEC to consider whether the proposed
conversion is consistent with the following housing
goals of the Town:
1. To encourag<a continuation of social and economic
diversity in the Town through a variety of
housing types.
~'~- ~~accommodation unit J ~ ' ~~
to this request. There are
Bell Tower Building two
e units . h; ~+.,r;,.,, ,.. __.~_
Staff Response:
y~ The agreement by the applicant to restrict units
R-3 and R-4 to long term employee housing for a
15 year period meets this criteria.
2. To expand the supply of decent housing for low
and moderate income families.
Staff Response:
This proposal does not change the supply of
housing in the community.
3. To achieve a greater economic balance for the
Town by increasing the number of jobs and the
supply of housing for people who will hold
them.
Staff Response:
This proposal does not impact this criteria,
other than allowing commercial operators the
security of owning their own space.
B. The Commission may require that a reasonable
percentage of the converted units be reserved for
sale or rental to persons of moderate income,
Staff Response:
The applicant has agreed to restrict the two existing
rental units for a 15 year period.
C. The Planning Commission may deny the tentative or
preliminary map upon finding that:
1. Based on the information required by 17.26.070
and on the vacancy rate for rental housing,
tenants will have substantial difficulty in
obtaining comparably priced rental housing. a
rental vacancy rate below five percent based on
the most recent Town survey constitutes a
housing emergency situation.
2. The ratio of multiple-family rental units would
be reduced to less than twenty-five percent of
the total number of dwelling units in the Gore
Valley, from Dowd Junction east to the base of
Vail Pass, with no replacement rental housing
being provided.
Staff Response
This proposal presents no impact to this
criteria.
The Town of Vail Building Department has completed the
required inspection for conversion and all required
criteria have been met by the applicant.
III. COMPLIANCE WITH STIPULATIONS OF SECTION 17.16,075
The Bell Tower building contains no accommodation units
and is therefore in compliance with the section regarding
accommodation unit conversions. The applicant has agreed
to a 15 year long term rental restriction to condo units
R3 and R4 which currently serve as employee housing units,
IV. $Z'A~'F F3IwCO~,,~ENDATION
As a condition of approval, the final condominium
declarations to be recorded with the plat must contain
appropriate language restricting units R-3 and R-4. This
language will be reviewed by Town of Vail staff prior to
recording of the condominium map and documents,

Vail Town Council Members
75 S. Frontage P,d
Vail, CO 81657
My background has several facets that I believe would be beneficial to advisory committees such as VLMDC or the CSE.
Having awned a business in Vail fpr many years that targeted the international market and also worked with domestic
clients I have seen and done many a marketing effort. During those years l worked closely with the lodging community
and every other type of service industry this town has to offer. I also have a back ground of tommunity involvement with
Salvation Army as the coordinator for the county. l don't know how that may apply but it certainly does not hurt to
understand our community from all facets. As Director of Sales and Marketing & General Manager for an
Ir!tercontinentai Motels property Holiday Inn-apex Vail t saw the true affects the V~MD and the CSI:'s ef`orts have on the
lodging community and ultimately the bottom dollar. This was true not only for what the hotel saw but even the three
local restaurants located In the hotel saw. My latest project is serving as the lead Coordinator fora 65D,~0 square foot
rea! estate development as many of you know for the same property. This has given me the opportunity to see the need
far both of these cornmitiies as it translated to creating projections at a development level. All of these endeavors have
given me unique view of our community and I would love to share what 1 have learned. Perhaps some of this will to help
make this town more enjoyable for our guest and more profitable for our business owmers. I am also a real estate broker
and currently run operations for a four pronged Vail based business called Vail Ski VaCation,Corn. We arQ a vacation
rental company, a conclerga services company, a real estate firm and also a mortgage firm all under one umbrella.
Overseeing operations for all four businesses continues to keep my pulse on our town sharp and my interest in its well
being peaked. t would love to contribute on either or both of these committees as a show of my commitment to my
community and to its financial future as well as it vibrancy moving forward. Many of you may know that 1 considered
running for council and appreciate the support from those of you who encouraged me to da so. As 1 mentioned at that
time the comn,itrnent was more than I felt I could meet. f did not want to do the position a disservice if 1 were voted in
by the community, so I opted out. However my interest in the interworkings of our community is still there and I feel I
could handle an appointment to both committees if you thought I would serve the need. t applaud your level of
commitment to Vail and hope to assist for the sldetines vn these committees. I look forward to speaking with all of you
at the interview process, Nave a great dayt
Sincerely

RE: Commission on Special Events Board Opening
Dear Town Council:
As a resident and Director of Masters Gallery in the Town of Vail, I would like to submit this
letter of interest for the position opening on the Town of Vail Commission on Special Events.
I have resided in .Eagle County since 1994, and four years ago made Vail my permanent home.
In the last four years I have taken ownership of my community through participation. I attend
the weekly update meeting for Meadow Drive Construction; an active member of the Meadow
Drive Business Partnership, and a board member for three years. I am also part of the
construction mitigation committee anal on Vail's first Economic Council.
As the Director of Masters Gallery, I supervise my staff, manage a budget, keep the advertising
fresh and coordinate gallery events showcasing our world class artists. I partner with Bravo and
The Symposium to bring special events to enrich our community.
As a participating business here in Vaia, I also give to various charities and fundraisers to help
improve the quality of life for others.
I feel with my strong business sense, marketing skills, and participation in "what's going on in
Vail", l have a passionate sense of community and pride in seeing this town develop quality
events and activities for residents and guests.
I thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

To Whom !t May Concern:
Please accept this letter of recommendation for Kayla ICundolf to serve on the
Special Events Commission. I've known Kayla for many years, both as a neighbor
and as an active participant and advocate in Vail's business environment. lNhile we
don't agree on everything (although we do, more often than not) I always admire her
passion and dedication to the cause ... whatever it is. Inevitably, that cause is
something meant to improve our community, whether it be an economic or social
effort ... what a perfect fit for the CSE.
To her credit, Kayla is never, ever afraid to speak up. On the other hand, she also
has the ability and vision to know when she has made her point, and to move on.
That ability to be both tenacious, and yet willing to compromise when necessary is a
rare blend of attributes. It's also exactly what community service boards such as the
CSE need, in order to be effective.
Kayla also has the distinct advantage of being both a manager, as well as one v~rho
works the front line. In addition to the qualities mentioned above, I have found her to
be more in touch with our guests' needs and feelings than just about anyone else I
can think of. More importantly, she tends to put those things first, above all else ...
which is once again exactly what our community needs.
In summary, I highly recommend Kayla for a position on the CSE. Please fee! free to
contact me at any time if there's any questions you have or any other information I
can provide.
Best Regards,

Attention: Lorelei Donaldson (ldanaldso~~ruvvailgov.con~)
k~E: Letter ®f intent and interest t® serve ®n the '~'nwn of Van's C®m~mm~issimn on
Special Events ff®r amnther tv~~o year terms.
The purpose of this letter is to express my desire to continue to serve on the board of the
commission on special events. I know that I have a lot more to contribute to this board
and remain excited to :plane Vail on top of the list for unique, well-produced and positive
town wide events. Over the last 1 ~ years I have produced, played and promoted events
from Telluride Bluegrass to Copper Mountain Sun-sation, plus numerous events in the
Vail Valley. I have been the general manager of State Bridge Lodge and Sarnana Lounge
in Vail and have brought in national and international performers for the people of Eagle
County. I understand the importance of swell-balanced event calendar and the need for
high power events during Vail's slower seasons.
I would like to see the current events in Vail continue to grow and raise the bar for
destination events. I wa~ald also like to seed new events that meet our ever growing and
c}ianging valley wide demographic. I see a need to entice down valley residents back to
the real heart of the valley by fitnding and supporting family wide event and interactive
productions.
The shoulder seasons of the winter and more importantly the late spring and early fall
time frames present tremendous opportunity to develop destination events and I feel Vail
needs to be competitive to attract these events. My experience in the industry gives me
unique perspective on potential events.
I am. passionate in everything I do and I look forward to continuing with the other
members of the CSE wham I have admiration.and respect for. I feel there will be
tremendous synergy if' I am elected to continue this role!

My background has several facets that (,believe would be beneficial to advisorycommitteessuch as VLMDC ar the CSE.
>-laving owned a business in Vail fpr many years that~targeted the international market and also worked with domestic
clients 1 have seen and done many a marketing effort. wring those years 1 worked closely with the lodging community
and every other type of service industry this town has to offer, 1 also have a back ground of community involvement with
salvation Army as the coordinator for the county. I don't know how that may apply but it certainly does not hurt to
understand our community from alt facets. ~,s Director at Sales and Marketing & General Manager for an
Intercontinental Motels property Holiday Inn-Apex Vail 1 saw the true affects the VtMp and the t~SE's efforts have on the
lodging community and uttimately the bottom dollar. This was trgJe not only for what the hotel saw but even the three
local restaurants located in the hotel saw. My latest project is serving as the lead coordinator for a G50,1)UO square foot
real estate development as many of you knew far the same property. This has given me the opportunity to see the need
for both og these commites as it translated to creating protections at a development level. All of these endeavors have
given me unique view t~f our community and I would love to share what I have learned. Perhaps some of this will to help
make this town mare enjoyable for our guest and mare profitable for our business owners. I am also a real estate broker
and currently run operations for a four pronged Vail based business called Vail Ski Vacation;Cam. We are a vacation
rental company, a concierge servioes company, a teat estate firm and also a mortgage firm all under ane umbrella.
Overseeing operations for all four businesses continues to keep n,y pulse on our town sharp and my interest in its well
being peaked. t would love to contribute on either or both of 4hese committees as a show of my commitment to my
community and to its financial future as well as it vibrancy moving forward. Many of you may know that 1 considered
running for council and appreciate the support from those of you who encouraged me to do so. As 1 mentioned at 4hat
time the camrnitment was more than I felt I could meet. t did not want to dv the position a disservice if 1 were voted in
by the community, so I opted out. However my interest in the interworkings df our rnmmunity is still there and I feel
could handle an appointment to both committees If you thought I would serve the need. I applaud your level of
commitment to Vail and hope to assist for the sidelines on these committees. I look forward to speaking with atl of you
at the interview process. Have a great dayf

Dear Town of Vail Town Council,
It has come to my attention that applications are being accepted for vacant
positions on the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council
(VLMDAC). Please accept my letter of interest herein, accompanied by
resume and letter of recommendation, as my expressed interest in this
opportunity.
As the VLMDAC is tasked with growing visitors and subsequent tax
revenues in the May to October timeframe, I feel my firsthand knowledge
of Vail Recreation District (VRD) assets compliments this mission
attractively, bringing to the table insider-information from our numerous
summer-specific and recreation-oriented facilities in Vail, including the
Vail Golf Club, Ford Park Tennis Center, Vail Nature Center and youth-
ori.ented summer camps, to name but a few. Our mission at the VRD is to
deliver world-class recreation to Vail's residents and guests, and I strongly
feel recreation is a vital component to successfully marketing and
subsequently attracting visitors to summer in Vail. As a VLMDAC
member, I could further compliment the already impressive marketing
efforts in place by elevating the presence of recreation into the mix.
With over a decade of ski resort, airline, hospitality, real estate and
recreation sales and marketing experience, I'm confident in my ability to
deliver both valuable input and tangible results to the VLMDAC. My
education includes an English degree from CU-Boulder and an MBA in
Integrated Marketing Communications, equating to strong analytical skills
and the subsequent ability to communicate my findings effectively. My
three years with United Vacations Ski, and seven years with Intrawest
Destination Resorts in particular, afforded me the experience of visiting
and studying nearly every major ski resort in North America, taking with
me best practices from each and incorporating, where applicable, to our
own resort assets. This detailed knowledge of competitive-set resorts is
invaluable when launching sales and marketing initiatives here at home,
marking another strength I could bring to the VLMDAC. Finally, my
marketing efforts at the VRD over this past yeaz h~.ve recently earned a
nomination for the Vail Valley Partnership's Success Awards "Marketing
Campaign of the Year", a nomination for which I am simultaneously both
humbled and proud.
Having lived in numerous other ski resort areas including Lake Tahoe/Squaw Valley,
Frisco/Copper Mountain, and even "extended stays" in Whistler-Blackonib, I say with
pride that I have called Vail home for over five years now. My wife Bridget and I take
full advantage of all that Vail has to offer, and as a result we do our best to give back,.
spending our professional lives working toward making Vail the premier ski resort
destination in North America.
It would be an honor to include the VI,1I,IDAC in these efforts, and thank you for your
consideration.
Sincerel

Dear VMLDAC Members,
I understand that John Monson is being considered fc~r a position on your Board.
We worked with John for about 10 years when he was employed by Intrawest at Copper
Mountain. John was our Wholesale/Tour & Travel liaison and his interaction with Ski.com
included product/sales training sessions with our sales agents, developing and implementing co-
op marketing efforts with us, and problem solving on Ski.com client issues.
John excelled in all of these roles. He is a clear thinker, articulate speaker, and always had a
good instinct for how to find the best solution to a problem, keeping the interests of our muh>al
clients in mind. John's positive attitude made him a pleasure to work with, and I would strongly
recommend your appointing him to your board. I car. think of no finer choice.
Sincerely,

Vail Town Council
Attn: Lorelei Donaldson, Town Clerk

Vail, CO 81657
Dear Vail Town Council, this letter is to express my interest in serving a second term on the Vail
Local Marketing Distrid Advisory Council (VLMDAC).
I previously applied for this position as a representative of the Lion Square Lodge owners. Lion
Square Lodge is comprised of 118 individual condominium owners. I will continue to serve as the
Director of Marketing for The Resort Company (managers of Lion Square Lodge, Montaneros
Condominiums and The Charter) until April 2008. I have resigned from this position (with a 6
month notice) and will be working at West Vail Liquor IUlart full time starting in April 2008. My
husband, Tom Mullen, and I solely own VVest Vail Liquor Mart. I wanted to fully disclose this
change in employment to the Town of Vail for consideration on the VLMDAC. I feel that my
hospitality experience combined with my future employment in the retail sedor will continue to be
an asset to the VLMDAC and' the Town of Vail.
Nere is a little bit of information about my background. I grew up in Montana and spent
weekends skiing and summers enjoying the outdoors therefore my passion for the mountains has
been engrained from an early age. After graduation from the University of Iowa in December of
1988, i drove straight to Vaii just prior to the 1989 World Alpine Championships. I quickly realized
this was a community where I could make a positive impact and wanted to establish a permanent
address here for years to come.
I have been involved in hotel sales and marketing in Vail for the past 19 years. My first "real job"
was as Sales Manager at Lion Square Lodge. I am now Director of Marketing for The Resort
Company. I direct our sales, marketing, revenue management and public relations efforts.
I feel that ! am qualified for this position through my extensive sales and marketing background,
my involvement with key companies and organizations involved with VLMDAC and through my
understanding of the intricacies and operations of the VLMDAC and the Town of Vail.
I am in#erested in serving the Vail community and the VLMDAC through this position for several
reasons. An increased focus on increasing the revenues in Vail during the nonpeak seasons
(May to Odober) is also a key initiative in the lodging and retail sectors. 1 am dedicated to
preserving and building the Vail brand in the marketplace particularly in the spring, summer and
fall seasons. I feel that I can efl'edivety assess the needs of the community, analyze target
markets and then work with a committee to determine an action plan for the future.
I feel strongly that we each have obligation to give back to our community and feel that this
position on the VLMDAC would be another opportunity for me to do so. I have been involved in
many professional organizations as well as nonprofit organizations. I have attached my bio for
additional information. ff you have any additional questions for me, I can be reached at
376-5639. I appreciate your consideration of my application to serve a 2nd term on the VLMDAC.
Sincerely,
Laurie Mullen

Dear Lorelei,
I am writing to offer a professional recommendation for Laua~lie li'Iullen to serve a second
term on the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council.
I have had the pleasure of working with Laurie on many hospitality issues affecting our valley.
She sees the big picture and knows how to implement goals and strategies so well. The
addition of another member of the hotel sales & marketing community would be another
advantage of choosing Laurie Mullen to serve on the council. Due to her tenure of over 19
years in the Vail Valley's hospitality industry, Laurie is able to continue to support the
necessary direction needed on marketing issues.
Laurie understands our business in the valley. She understands that our business has peaks and
valleys as well as 3 seasons: winter, summer and should seasons. I believe it is important to
replace the recent vacancies on the board with such talented individuals.
In conclusion, I strongly recommend Laurie Mullen for the Vail Local Marketing District
Advisory Council. Please feel free to contact me at 970-479-5434 for more insight into
Laurie's talents and expertise.

This letter is to recommend appointment of Laurie Mullen to serve another term
on the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Committee (VLMDAC). During her

greatly beneficial. She has a wide variety of experience that spans solid

opportunities; in depth knowledge of resort tourism including group sales and
destination travel, awareness of our competition and of upcoming challenges. As
Ms Mullen transitions from the lodging sector into retail she will gain added
expertise and new points of view while retaining all she has learned in 19 years

I urge you to reappoint Ms Mullen to the VLMDAC, she is a valuable asset to the
Committee.

To Vaii Town Council,
i,~y name is Elizabeth Plante and I have lived and worked in Vail since January 2000 and would
like to join the Design Review Board. I am a home owner (2915 Basingda{e Blvd., Intermountain)
with interest in future development and feel I could have a fresh perspective and fair input on new
and remodeled construction in our town. I plan on staying in Vail and raising a family here.
Although I don't have experience my background is in Art History where I studied art and
architecture and am comfortable working with exterior and interior blue prints, floor plans and
design. I graduated with a BA in Art History with a studio art minor from Hartwick College in
Onenota, New York. After college I traveled extensively~throughout Europe studying art and
architecture for over three months. After traveling I worked for six years in the Impressionist Art
Department at Sothbey's an art auction house in New York City. After my flme in NY I worked in
advertising in Boston, MA for two years. For the past six years I have been working independently
as a yoga instructor teaching classes at various gyms, studios and private homes. I also run a
Yoga program far the Sonnenalp Resort of Vail.
I hope you would consider me for the Design Review Board because of my interest in Vail and my
background. I learn fast and am eager to help make a difference in our town's future.
Sincerely,
C f .....-- .-~--'

To Whom It May Concern,
I would like to be considered for a seat on one of the Town of Vail volunteer boards that
have vacancies; PEC, DRB or VLMDAC.
I feel the skills I have developed over my 30 year career in the ski business could be an
asset to the Town. Rather than choose one of the three boards I felt I could better sever
the town by letting the staff direct my application to the board feel could most benefit
from my involvement.
I look forward to hearing back regarding this application.
Sincerely,

4. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council for a prescribed regulations
amendment, pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to Chapter 14-10,
Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town Code, in order to amend the wildfire roofing
Page 2
regulations requiring Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof materials in the Town of Vail, and
setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC07-0071)
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Rachel Friede
ACTION: Recommendation of approval with condition(s)
MOTION: Kjesbo SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 5-1-0 (Viele opposed)
CONDITIONS:
1. That nonconforming single-family dwellings, two-family dwellings, and multi-family
dwellings shall be allowed aone-time 500 square foot addition of GRFA per unit, that
affects the roofing area but does not share a plane or ridge with the existing roof,
that shall conform to roofing requirements but shall not trigger a re-roof of the
existing nonconforming roof.
2. That the Design Review Board shall be given some ability to allow exemptions to the
roofing requirements should the design meet the intent of the Vail Town Code.
3. That any maintenance and repair of a nonconforming roof that is more than 25%
within a twelve month period and or more than 50% of total roof area in any time
period shall be required to re-roof the entire structure to come into compliance with
the roofing regulations.
Rachel Friede gave a presentation per the staff memorandum.
There was no public comment.
Commissioners Kjesbo and Pierce asked for' clarification about the proposed exemptions from
these requirements for single family and duplex homes. Rachel Friede clarified that the
proposed regulations would not allow exemptions for single-family homes.
Commissioner Pierce noted that a!I the Commissioners were in favor of noncombustible roofing
materials. He noted that another goal should be to allow additions to duplexes without one
duplex owner tying the hands of their duplex neighbor.
Warren Campbell gave examples of some recent duplex re-roof application scenarios and
welcomed additional input from the Commissioners.
Commissioner Kurz asked whether the aesthetic regulations should outweigh the wildfire
regulations. He further noted the insurance impacts of this issue and noted that the policy is
correct, but questioned what "triggers" the requirement for both parties of a duplex to re-roof.
Commissioner Viele questioned to what extent the Town.forces owners to re-roof.
Warren Campbell noted that if a half a duplex has' wood shakes and catches fire, it was
irrelevant if the other half replaced their roof with a noncombustible roof.
Commissioner Viele expanded upon the idea that many duplex owners will never be able to
cooperate.
Commissioner Proper asked if anyone has acknowledged the wastefulness of replacing a roof
that doesn't need to be replaced at the time that an event is triggering a re-roof.
Commissioner Pierce recommended that as this regulation moves forward "one square" should
be replace with 100 sq.ft. to make it clearer.
Page 3
Commissioner Gunion expressed that the difficult neighbor situations will occur with or without
these regulations. The question is how to create incentives for re-roofing. She noted concerns
that duplex owners are currently blackmailing each other because they need each others
signatures to apply for any application to the Town.
Commissioner Kurz asked Rachel to clarify what is achieved with these proposed amendments.
Rachel Friede explained that the proposed amendments do not solve all the issues, but provide
more flexibility than the current regulations. Duplex owners will still be required joint property
signoff for any solution proposed.
Commissioner Pierce recommended a process of evaluating each building and requiring a plan
of action by both neighbors within a specific time frame; thus elevating the conflict between
neighbors.
Rachel -Friede noted the earlier consideration of such a plan. She noted the lack of available
staffing resource to implement such a plan and the fact that the narrow valley of the Town
causes most properties to be affected by the spread of fire.
Commissioner Viele noted his concern that the Town is over-regulating.
Rachel Friede noted that maintenance can be done to repair leaking roofs, etc. without Town of
Vail design review approval or joint owner approval.
Commissioner Viele noted that he is not in favor of any regulation that doesn't limit itself to new
construction.
Rachel Friede expanded that the one roofing square threshold was proposed since that is the
amount of replacement that triggers the need for a building permit.
Commissioner Gunion noted that allowing multiple roofing materials could allow more creative
and aesthetically desirable homes when implemented appropriately.
Commissioner Pierce summarized that the Commission has the following concerns:
- A 500 sq.ft. one time exception per unit for single-family, duplex and multi-family buildings,
for additions that affect the roof area but do not share a plane or ridge with existing roof area.
- The DRB should be allowed broader authority to allow exceptions to the rules of compatible
roofing materials
- Multi family roof upgrade should be tied to roof changes, not GRFA (250 additions) changes
- Maintenance and repair should be capped at 50% and then entire roof must come into
compliance
Commissioner Proper recammended forwarding a motion to Town Council with additional
recommendations, as outlined by Commissioner Pierce, rather than tabling this item for further
Commission review.
15 mina~tes
5. A request for a final. recommendation to the Vail Town Council for a text amendment, pursuant to
Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to Section 12-2-2, Definitions, and Sub-Sections
12-7B-2A, Definitions (basement or garden level); 12-7B-3A, Definitions (first-floor or street
level); 12-7H-2A, Definitions (basement or garden level); 12-7H-3A, Definitions (first-floor or
street level); 12-71-2A, Definitions (basement or garden level); 12-7K-3A, Definitions (first-floor or
Page 4
street level), Vail Town Code, to allow for amendments to the definitions of "Basement or Garden
Level" and "First Floor or Street Level," and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC07-0070)
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Bill Gibson
ACTION: Approved
MOTION: Kjesbo SECOND: Proper VOTE: 6-0-0
Bill Gibson made a presentation per the staff memorandum.
There was no public comment.
Commissioner Pierce suggested that text be added to explain that a building may have more
than one street level. He said we are trying to regulate uses along pedestrian and vehicular
ways, and there should be flexibility in determining if something is street level. Bill Gibson
clarified where that language was included in the proposed text amendments.
Commissioner Kurz stated that this makes good sense and it is necessary to factor in
accessibility of commercial units.
10 minutes
6. A request for a work session on a proposed major amendment to a Special Development District
(SDD), pursuant to Section 12-9A-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for an
amendment to Special Development District No. 4, Cascade Village, to allow for the
development of a mixed use development, located at 1276 Westhaven Drive (Cornerstone
site)/Unplatted, Vail Cascade Subdivision, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC07-

conversion of two existing Type III Employee Housing Units into additional gross residential floor
area for an existing dwelling unit, located at 201 Gore Creek Drive (Bell Tower Building)/Part of

MEMORANDUM
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: December 18, 2007
SUBJECT: A request for a work session to discuss a prescribed regulations amendment,
pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to Chapter 14-10,
Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town Code, in order to amend
the wildfire roofing regulations requiring Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof
materials in the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Rachel Friede
PURPOSE
The applicant, the Town of Vail, is requesting a work session to discuss a prescribed
regulations amendment, pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to
Chapter 14-10, Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town Code, in order to
amend the wildfire roofing regulations requiring Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof
materials in the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
Staff requests that the Vail Town Council listen to the presentation, ask any pertinent
questions, and provide comments to Staff. Because this is a work session, Staff does
not request that any action be taken at this time.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
Staff is requesting a work session to discuss proposed amendments to Chapter 14-10,
Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town Code, that will amend the wildfire
roofing regulations that require Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof covering
materials and ban wood shake and wood shingles for all structures within the Town of
Vail. The proposed text amendments seek to clarify the requirements for nonconforming
structures relative to approval from the Town for maintenance, repair, additions or partial
reroof, particularly in two-family dwellings.
Table A outlines the specific requirements of the existing regulations and proposed text
amendments for compliance with the regulation requiring Class A roof assembly or
Class A roof covering materials, and banning wood shake and wood shingles. Table A
does not address the issue of projects that have requested to add a minimal amount of
nonconforming material in order to undergo an addition that is connected only by a
valley and. not connected by a plane or ridge. Staff requests that the Vail Town Council
provide input on policy for these types of circumstances.

III. BACKGROUND
The danger of wildfire in Vail has been a pressing issue for many years, with intertwined
issues of pine beetle infestation, drought, and an increase in development adjacent to
Forest Service properties. The Town has worked with partners including the Forest
Service and Eagle County to mitigate wildfire risk at the perimeter of the Town by
conducting controlled burns and tree removal in select locations. This perimeter would
potentially stop fire from traveling from the forest to homes as well as the greater risk
from homes to the forest. However, this action is not enough to reduce the potential
devastating effects on the Town. In order to protect citizens and their property, it is
necessary to mitigate hazards on private property, not only on public land bordering
Forest Service property. Wildfire Regulations have been adopted in communities
throughout the country, and in 2006, the Town concluded that Wildfire Regulations are
necessary in Vail.
In 2006, Town Departments including Fire, Planning, Building, and Environment Health
collaborated to draft Wildfire Regulations that would reduce the risk of destruction of
property and the spreading of wildfires. Initially, Staff considered text amendments that
included a system for evaluating the fire risk to individual properties and basing
requirements on property-specific conditions. However, a lack of staffing for
enforcement prevented the Town from moving forward with such regulations.
In an effort to provide the greatest improvement of building safety while minimizing Staff
time commitments, Staff proposed to require fire-resistant roofs. Combustible roofing
materials contribute to the spreading of fire by emanating firebrands that travel from one
home to the next, and between homes and the forest.
At the time, a regulation requiring compatibility of materials on structures was interpreted
by the Design Review Board (DRB) to require all two-family structures (duplexes) to
have the same roof covering materials and to reroof at the same time. Both the
Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) and DRB recommended that two-family
dwellings be allowed to reroof at different times in order to come into compliance with
the new roofing regulations.
On December 11, 2006, the PEC forwarded a recommendation of approval, with
modifications, to the Vail Town Council. The PEC recommended that the proposed text
amendments require Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof covering materials on all
new construction and re-roofing that replaces more than 50% of the total roof area.
The Vail Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 3, Series of 2007 on February 6, 2007,
an ordinance requiring all structures within the Town of Vail have Class A roof
assemblies or Class A roof covering materials, and expressly banning wood shake and
wood shingles. The Vail Town Council required that implementation of the regulations
would occur through new construction, re-roofing, and through triggers already identified
in the Vail Town Code. Existing requirements for nonconformity in the Zoning
Regulations were referenced and nonconforming structures were allowed cone-time
500 square foot addition with a conforming roof while allowing the nonconforming roof to
remain. However, the Vail Town Council insisted that the existing regulation remain,
requiring all duplexes to come into compliance at the same time.
Since the regulations were enacted, i:here have been development review applications
for certain changes to nonconforming roofs that have conflicted with aesthetic
requirements for materials and two-family dwellings. Title 14 requires compatibility
among exterior materials applied to both sides of two-family dwellings, which the DRB
has consistently interpreted to require uniform roof covering materials for duplex units.
However, the DRB recently allowed one side of anon-conforming duplex to reroof from
wood shake to a synthetic shake, while the other side was not required to reroof at the
same time. There have also been cases of single-family residences with multiple roof
covering materials approved. The Vail Town Council commended the DRB for their
creative solutions in these situations.
To address the issue of nonconformity, Staff is proposing amendments to Chapter 14-
10, Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town Code. On December 10, 2007,
the PEC made a recommendation of approval, with modifications, to the Vail Town
Council. The modifications included keeping the exemption for one-time 500 sq ft
additions that affect roof area, giving the DRB more ability to allow creative solutions,
and capping reroofing at 50% of total roof area in any time period before triggering
compliance.

I. SUMMARY
The applicant, the Town of Vail, is requesting a final recommendation to the Vail Town
Council for a prescribed regulations amendment, pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment,
Vail Town Code, to Chapter 14-10, Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town
Code, in order to amend the wildfire roofing regulations requiring Class A roof assemblies or
Class A roof materials in the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Section VI of this memorandum and the
evidence and testimony presented, the Community Development Department recommends
the Planning and Environmental Commission forward a recommendation of approval to
the Vail Town Council for the proposed text amendments, subject to the findings noted in
Section VI of this memorandum.
II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
The danger of wildfire in Vail has been a pressing issue for many years, with intertwined
issues of pine beetle infestation, drought, and the prevalence of development adjacent to
United States Forest Service (USES) properties. The Town has worked with partners
including the USES and Eagle County to mitigate wildfire risk at the perimeter of the Town
by conducting controlled burns and tree removal in select locations. This perimeter would
potentially stop fire from traveling from the forest to homes as well as the greater risk from
homes to the forest.
In 2006, Town Departments including Fire, Planning, Building, and Environment Health
collaborated to draft Wildfire Regulations that would reduce the risk of destruction of
property and spreading wildfires. The result of that collaboration was the adoption of
Ordinance No. 3, Series of 2007 on February 6, 2007, an ordinance requiring all structures
within the Town of Vail have Class A roof assemblies or Class A roof covering materials,
and expressly banning wood shake and wood shingles.
Since the regulations were enacted, there have been development review applications for
certain changes to nonconforming roofs that have conflicted with aesthetic requirements for
materials and two-family dwellings. Title 14 requires compatibility among exterior materials
applied to both sides of two-family dwellings, which the Design Review Board has
interpreted to require uniform roof covering materials for duplex units. However, the Design
Review Board recently allowed one side of anon-conforming duplex to reroof from wood
shake to a synthetic shake, while the other side was not required to reroof at the same time.
There have also been cases of single-family residences with multiple roof covering
materials approved.
Staff is requesting that the Planning and Environmental Commission consider a text
amendment to Chapter 14-10, Design Review Standards and Guidelines that will amend the
wildfire roofing regulations. The proposed text amendments seek to clarify the requirements
for nonconforming structures relative to approval from the Town for maintenance, repair,
additions or partial reroof, particularly in two-family dwellings. Fo{lowing the development
review applications with special circumstances, the Vail Town Council instructed Staff to
propose text amendments that address requirements for compliance in nonconforming
structures. The proposed text amendments will provide clarity to the regulations, while
allowing more flexibility and increasing compliance.
The proposed amendments are indicated in bold (additions) and +riLo +1-~rn~ ~r~F+ (deletions)
as follows:

wood shingles and rolled roofing shall not be permitted. Two-family and multi-
family dwellings shall be required to have matching roof covering materials,
except when the Design Review Board determines that different materials are
compatible and integral to the architectural style of the structure. Two-family
and multi-family dwellings with nonconforming roofs may be allowed to have
different roof covering materials under certain conditions listed in Subsection
14-T O-5F-2.

2. Nonconforming structures: The following applies fo structures that
have nonconforming roofs:
a. Single-family dwellings: Repair and maintenance of twenty-five (25)
percent or more of the total roof area of the structure within a twelve
(12) month period, or any additions to the roof area shall require the
entire structure to come into compliance.
b. Two-family dwellings: Repair and maintenance of twenty-five (25)
percent or more of the total roof area of each side requires the
side(s) conducting repair and maintenance to come into compliance.
Any addition of roof area that shares a plane or ridge with the
existing roof, or is more than 1 roofing square in area, requires that
the side(s) of the two-family dwelling that .have the addition be
reroofed to come info compliance. Additions of new roof forms less
than 1 roofing square in area that do not share a plane or ridge with
the existing roof, but may share a valley, such as a dormer, shall be
allowed to keep the nonconforming roof and utilize a conforming but
different roof covering material for the addition should the materials
be deemed compatible by the Design Review Board. Upon reroofing
one side of a duplex with a different. roof covering. material in order
to come into compliance, the other side of the duplex shall be
required to reroof if the roof structures are attached by any shared
plane or ridge. If the roof structures of the two sides are not
attached by any shared plane or ridge, or are solely attached by a
valley, one side may reroof with a different roof covering material,
should the materials be deemed compatible by the Design Review
Board. Upon reroofing the remainder of the nonconforming roof, the
materials shall match the approved conforming materials.
c. Multi-family dwellings: Repair. or maintenance of twenty-five (25)
percent or more of the total roof area of a structure within a twelve
(12) month period requires the entire structure to come into
compliance. Any addition of roof area that shares a plane or ridge
with the. existing roof or is more than 1 roofing square shall be
required to reroof the entire structure to come info compliance.
Additions of new roof forms less than 1 roofing square that do not
share a plane or ridge, but may share a valley, with the existing roof,

and utilize a conforming but different roof covering material should
the materials be deemed compatible by the Design Review Board.
d. Developments with multiple structures: Upon reroofing a single
structure that is part of amulti-structure project with conforming
roof covering materials that do not match existing materials, the
3
conforming materials shall be deemed compatible with the existing
nonconforming materials by the Design Review Board. Upon
reroofing of additional structures in the development, the materials
shall match the approved conforming materials. Should the
matching material no longer be manufactured, a different materia!
may be permitted, should the materials be deemed compatible by
the Design Review Board.
32. Roofing Material: The use of any roofing material, including those not
specifically identified by this section, shall only be permitted, unless otherwise
prohibited by this code, where the design review board finds:
a. That the proposed material is satisfactory in general appearance, quality
over time, architectural style, design, color, and texture; and
b. That the use of the proposed material complies with the intent of the
provisions of this code; and
c. That the use of the proposed material is compatible with the structure, site,
surrounding structures, and overall character of the town of Vail; and
d. That the material is noncombustible or aids in the prevention of fires.
BACKGROUND
In 2006, Staff made a collaborative effort to create wildfire regulations that would improve
conditions in Vail to protect life and property against wildfire. On October 9, 2006, Staff
.proposed text amendments to the PEC requiring Class A roof assemblies for all structures
within the Town. The PEC made a recommendation of approval with modifications,
including a provision allowing duplex owners to re-roof at different times in order to come
into compliance.
Staff consulted the Design Review Board regarding the allowance of re-roofing two sides of
a duplex at different times. The DRB recommended that the policy requiring uniformity of
structures and compatibility of materials be lifted when dealing with this new regulation.
However, on December 5, 2006, Staff held a worksession with the Vail Town Council to
discuss the regulations and whether they always require uniformity. The Town Council
instructed Staff that uniformity of materials should be required to maintain aesthetic quality
and to encourage compliance, and thus, increased safety from spreading wildfires.
On December 11, 2006, Staff returned to the PEC to propose a text amendment to allow
applicants to choose between a Class A roof assembly or Class A roof covering material,
and to ban wood shake and wood shingles for use as a roofing material. The PEC
recommended approval, and the Vail Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 3, Series of
2007, on February 6, 2007. The regulations remained vague regarding nonconforming
structures and multiple ownership scenarios, relying on the regulations regarding
compatibility of materials to guide decision-making.
Following recent decisions by the Design Review Board to allow different roof covering
materials under certain circumstances, the Vail Town Council instructed Staff to proposed
4
text amendments to the regulations in order to clarify requirements and allow different roof
covering materials under certain circumstances in two-family and multi-family dwellings.
IV. ROLES OF REVIEWING BODIES
Order of Review: The Planning and Environmental Commission review text amendment
applications and forwards a recommendation to the Town Council. The Town Council will
then review the text amendment application.
Planning and Environmental Commission: The Planning and Environmental
Commission is responsible for the review of a text amendment application, pursuant to
Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, and forwarding of a recommendation to the
Vail Town Council.
Design Review Board: The Design Review Board has no review authority over a text
amendment to the Vail Town Code. However, since the Wildfire Regulations may affect the
way the Design Review Board reviews applications, Town Staff will review the proposed text
amendments with the DRB.
Town Council: The Vail Town Council is responsible for final approval, approval with
modifications, or denial of a text amendment application, pursuant to Section 12-3-7,
Amendment, Vail Town Code. The Vail Town Council has the authority to hear and decide
appeals from any decision, determination, or interpretation by the Planning and
Environmental Commission and/or Design Review Board. The Vail Town Council may also
call up a decision of the Planning and Environmental Commission and/or Design Review
Board.

VI. REVIEW CRITERIA
The review criteria and factors for consideration for a request of a text amendment to Title
12 are established in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 12-3, Vail Town Code. As
there are no formal criteria for text amendments to Title 14, the provisions from Title 12 will
be used for all proposed text amendment to provide for stringent criteria.
1. The extent to which the text amendment furthers the general purpose of the
Development Standards Handbook; and
Staff believes the proposed text amendments further the. general purpose of Title 14
because they clarify the regulations for certain circumstances while addressing
safety and aesthetics issues. The text amendments will require that in most
circumstances, nonconformities are removed, resulting in increased safety from
wildfires. The text amendments also address the use of different roof covering
materials on two-family dwellings and multi-family dwellings only under
circumstances that do not negatively affect the aesthetic value of the structure.
2. The extent to which the text amendment would better implement and better
6
achieve the applicable elements of the adopted goals, objectives, and policies
outlined in the Vail Comprehensive Plan and is compatible with the
development objectives of the Town; and
Staff believes the proposed text amendments better implement and better achieve
the applicable elements of the adopted goals, objectives, and policies outlined in the
Vail Comprehensive Plan and are compatible with the development objectives of the
Town.
3. The extent to which the text amendment demonstrates how conditions have
substantially changed since the adoption of the subject regulation and how the
existing regulation is no longer appropriate or is inapplicable; and
Staff believes the proposed text amendments will provide clarity to Staff and decision
making boards in certain circumstances that were not adequately addressed in the
original text amendments. Since the adoption of the subject regulation, there have
been numerous design review applications approved that allowed different roof
covering materials on multiple (attached) structures and this highlighted the conflicts
that remained in the regulations.
4. The extent to which the text amendment provides a harmonious, convenient,
workable relationship among land use. regulations consistent with municipal
development objectives.
Staff believes the proposed text amendments will facilitate and provide a
harmonious, convenient, workable relationship among land use regulations that are
consistent with the Town of Vail master plans and development objectives. Allowing
two-family and multi-family dwellings to have different roof covering materials allows
for a better relationship between owners, and thus, a smoother development review
process. It also ensures that owners can come into compliance with the regulation
without being required to get their neighbors to comply immediately.
5. Such other factors and criteria the Commission and/or Council deem
applicable to the proposed text amendment.
VII. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department recommends that the Planning and
Environmental Commission forward a recommendation of approval to the Town Council,
pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, for proposed text amendments to
Chapter 14-10, Design Review Standards and Guidelines, Vail Town Code, in order to

materials in the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard thereto.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Department of Community Development
DATE: December 18, 2007
SUBJECT: Second Reading of Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007
I. PURPOSE
The applicant, the Town of Vail, is requesting a second reading of Ordinance No. 32,
Series of 2007, an Ordinance to enact prescribed regulation 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.
Staff requests that the Vail Town Council approve, approve with modifications, or deny
Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007, on second reading. Staff recommends that the Vail
Town Council approve Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007, on second reading.
II. BACKGROUND
On August 15, 2006, the Vail Town Council reviewed a Staff presentation regarding the
current sign code and current sign issues in Vail Village and Lionshead. The Town
Council directed Staff to make several modifications to the code. Council also directed
Staff to utilize the Vail Economic Advisory Council to assist in developing policy
recommendations. Staff distributed a survey to all businesses regarding signage, and
received responses from 46 businesses.
Regulations related to outdoor display, sales signs and menu boards were identified for
further review. These regulations lacked clarity and alignment with business community
needs. Due to lack of clarity, the regulations were difficult to implement and enforce.
On September 19, 2006, Staff met with the Vail Economic Advisory Council (VEAC) to
get recommendations on these issues. Staff reviewed the recommendations and went
back to the VEAC meeting on November 14, 2006 to reiterate and confirm the
recommendations.
On November 21, 2006, Staff returned to the Town Council to review VEAC
recommendations. The Town Council directed Staff to draft text amendments based on
those recommendations.
In August 2007, Staff met with the VEAC and the Vail Chamber and Business
Association (VCBA) in order to gain input on the proposed text amendments. On August
27, 2007, Staff presented proposed text amendments to the PEC, and the item was
tabled in order for staff to gain more input from business owners and other directly
affected parties.
In September 2007, Staff met with the VCBA Board, and then held a meeting with
members of the business community in order to gain input.
On October 8, 2007, the PEC madE; a recommendation to the Vail Town Council of
approval, with modifications. The PEC worked through the text amendments and came
up with compromises on the text amendments that are now proposed in the ordinance.
On November 20, 2007, the Vail Town Council approved, with modifications, Ordinance
No. 32, Series of 2007, on first reading. The modifications to Ordinance No. 32, Series
of 2007, included limiting display boxes to two per business frontage and allowing
specials boards to be freestanding when practical difficulties exist for the specials boards
to be attached to menu boxes. The Vail Town Council also requested that staff draft
regulations for a leasing program of town-owned property to be used for outdoor display
of retail goods. The leasing prograrn is being proposed as a new Chapter in Title 8,
Public Ways and Property, Vail Town Code, and is included as part of Ordinance No. 32,
Series of 2007.
III. PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
The proposed text amendments can be broken down into three major categories. The
following outlines each category, including PEC recommendations and any changes
made by the Vail Town Council in the first reading of Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007:
1. Menu boxes: Currently, businesses are allowed one menu box up to 6 sq ft. It is
unclear whether specials boards count as part of the menu box area calculation. The
PEC recommended that businesses be allowed 6 sq ft of menu box and three square
feet of specials boards (chalk or dry erase) per business frontage with a public entrance.
They placed no limitation on the number of menu boxes or specials boards, so long as
the area requirement is met. The Vail Town Council amended this section in the first
reading of Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007, in order to limit the number of menu boxes
to two per business frontage.
2. Sale signs: Currently, businesses, are allowed one sale sign of up to 1.5 sq ft, with a
special provision for more signage in the non-winter months. PEC recommended to
allow an unlimited number of sale signs for up to 3 sq ft of signage, and the deletion of
the special provision. Staff agrees with this recommendation, as it will provide ease of
implementation. Staff also supports a special business promotion permit, which will
come before the Town Council at a later date, and will allow for increased signage for
special business promotions.
3. Outdoor display: Currently, outdoor display is allowed in commercial and business
districts on a business' own property, without any further regulation. The F'EC
recommended no changes to this regulation, except to allow for leasing of town-owned
property. The Vail Town Council requested that Staff draft regulations for a leasing
program that would allow businesses to lease town-owned property for the use of
outdoor display. These regulations have culminated in a new Chapter in Title 8, Public
Ways and Property.
IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Department of. Community Development recommends the Vail Town Council
approve Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007, on second reading to amend 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. Staff's recommendation is based upon the review
of the criteria noted in Section V of the October 8, 2007 Planning and Environmental
Commission memorandum (Attachment A of the November 20, 2007 staff memorandum
to the Vail Town Council) and the evidence and testimony presented.
Staff recommends the Vail Town Council approve Ordinance No. 32, Series of 2007 on
second reading. Should the Town Council choose to approve Ordinance No. 32, Series
of 2007, on second reading, the Department of Community Development recommends

II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
Purpose of Final Review
Following work sessions with the Planning and Environmental Commission on
July 9, 2007, and October 8, 2007, to present conceptual plans and revisions for
this redevelopment, the Applicant is presenting final plans in response to
feedback gained from the Commission, Town Staff and after working with
building ownership to further develop the plans for redevelopment. Therefore,
the purpose of this meeting is to discuss any modifications made to the plans to
respond to Commission and/or Staff concerns or suggestions. In addition, the
PEC should evaluate how the revised Rams-Horn Lodge Condominiums re-
development proposal compares to the zoning regulations prescribed for
development within the Public Accommodation (PA) zone district and the
development standards (or restrictions) established via SDD No. 17, as well as
any site specific design guidelines or planning goals outlined in both the Vail

been revised to address PEC concerns regarding the ridgeline and roof
composition. In addition, the creation of additional lower level space on the north
side of the property is proposed for the creation of one (1) employee housing
unit, as well as the expansion of the lobby space, reception area and front office
space on Level One (main) above the new EHU. Certain improvements to
parking areas and the building grounds (new site wall and new landscape
plantings) will change the visual character and functionality of the property at the
pedestrian and vehicular level.
Requested Outcome
The intended outcome of this meeting is for the Commission to take formal action
on the application, citing certain applicable findings and criteria as the basis for
approval, approval with conditions, or denial of the application.
To this end, Staff's is recommending approval, with conditions, of the Major
Amendment to Special Development District No. 17, as detailed in Section IX of
this memo.
III. BACKGROUND
History of Property
The Rams-Horn opened for business as a lodge property in approximately 1968
and has been expanded and remodeled several times since. Most notably, in
1984 the property was remodeled to convert twenty-eight (28) lodge units and
three (3) dwelling units into seventeen (17) accommodation units and seven (7)
condominium units. At that time, rental restrictions were placed on the new
accommodation units and four new condominiums units created by the
conversion. In 1987, the Town approved the rezoning of the property to SDD No.
17, allowing for the subsequent remodel and addition of a full third story,
inclusive of three (3) new condominium units. Currently, Staff calculates that the
building consists of fourteen (14) dwelling units :and twenty-two (21)
accommodation units existing as lock-off bedroom/bath units.
4
Special Development District No. 17
The existing building (footprint and maximum ridge height) are tied to site plans,
landscape plans and building plans made part of and approved via SDD No. 17
upon adoption via Ordinance No. 27, Series 1987. Relative to the purpose of
Special Development District formation, Staff suggests that previous, site-specific
(mass and bulk) approvals and/or restrictions for this parcel were most likely in
response to unique site constraints, master plan goals of the Town for this sub-
area, as well as concerns from neighboring properties -building height and
potential impacts on views.
Proposed Re-Development
The Applicant proposes this re-development in order to gain functional floor area
and bedroom space. A primary intent of this project is to improve common areas,
including the entry and reception areas. As well, the proposed improvements will
be undertaken to improve internal circulation, as well as external (vehicular)
circulation and parking, and to provide enhanced amenities such as a "business
center" located within the new lobby, therefore improving lodging rental
operations on this already popular and profitable site.
The property has been well maintained and has continued to serve a niche
clientele seeking affordable lodging rentals nearby Golden Peak and the Village.
For that reason, the property has remained popular with families and other loyal
clientele, and building Ownership has overwhelmingly maintained a majority of
the units (both dwelling units and accommodation units) in the rental pool. These
factors, as well as a collective pride of ownership of this unique property, serve
as the basis for Ownership's justification to remodel the existing building rather
than demolish the structure and redevelop the property.
Yet, several of the units and common areas are dated and under-sized when
compared to other lodging properties in the Village area. ,Therefore, the
Ownership proposes this extensive remodel and addition, rather than demolition
and redevelopment, in order to provide enhanced rental experiences for guests
and to remain competitive with other lodging properties in the Village. A primary
focus of Ownership in any re-development of the property has been to not seek
to maximize development potential. Rather, this proposal capitalizes on
maintaining the property's "boutique", family-oriented niche in the vacation rental
market.
July 9, 2007 Work Session
The Applicant presented preliminary plans for this project on July 9, 2007, to the
Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission. At that meeting, certain
issues such as proposed building height, roof composition, massing, EHU size
requirements and density calculation methods were discussed and
Commissioners gave comments on the proposed plans. Specifically, the
Commission encouraged the Applicant to work with the Town to study
improvements to the sidewalk and road way (Vail Valley Drive) to improve
pedestrian and non-motorized (bicycle) safety.
October 8, 2007 Work Session
At the work session of October 8, 2007, the PEC reviewed certain modifications
to conceptual plans and requested that the Applicant:
5
^ Revise the roof plan to "break-up" an unbroken ridgeline while maintaining a
maximum building height of 56'
^ Study parking plan and provide details regarding a valet plan to demonstrate
how the proposed 32 vehicle parking spaces would satisfy the parking
requirements for the parcel
^ Provide required information regarding existing and proposed site coverage
and landscape areas, and
^ Provide information regarding existing and proposed encroachments of
building footprint and roof overhangs outside of established setbacks
Staff believes that the Applicant has revised the plans accordingly to address
PEC suggestions and concerns. Specifically, the Applicant has:
^ Re-designed the roof plan to raise the southern-most portion of the building's
roof structure (ridge), while adding variation to the forms, thus addressing the
specific concern by the PEC and enhancing overall roof composition
^ Provided a revised parking layout and a "Valet Plan" demonstrating how
required parking can be met in the event that there is a need to park up to 37
vehicles
^ Provided information and analysis regarding existing and proposed site
coverage, landscape (as a percentage of total site area) demonstrating that the
building, as proposed, will not exceed maximum allowable site coverage and
that the development, although reducing the total landscape area by 2,018 sq.
ft., will exceed the required landscape area for the lot
^ Provided information (site/floor plans showing existing and proposed building
footprint relative to property lines and setbacks
IV. ROLES OF THE REVIEWING BOARDS

V. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
The Rams-Horn Building re-development project is the comprehensive re-
development of Lot(s) Lot A, Block 3, Tract F1, Vail Village 5'h Filing and a tract
of land formally dedicated as Hanson Ranch Road right-of-way. This
development site is located along Vail Valley Drive, to the east of the Tivoli
Lodge, and to the north of Golden Peak. This area is further identified within the
"Medium/High Density Residential" land use designation of the Vail Village
Master Plan (Land Use Plan), and is more specifically addressed as part of the
"East Village" sub-area within the same Plan. This sub-area is described (in part)
as follows:
"The East Village sub-area is comprised almost exclusively of
residential/lodging and condominium development. The sub-area
separates the commercial activity of the Village core on the west wifh the
Golden Peak Ski. Base/Recreation area on the east. While there is
vehicular traffic through the sub-area, Hanson Ranch Road, Gore Creek
Drive, and Vail Valley Drive also accommodate a great deal of pedestrian
and bicycle traffic. The most important public improvements in this
sub-area relate to pedestrian and bicycle safety. The public right-of-
way should be maintained and expanded for public use whenever
possible."
More specifically, Sub-area #7-6 Rams-Horn Lodge (Complete) states:
"One story residential addition to existing structure. Sidewalk as found in
Sub-area #7-3 shall be part of improvements. "

Vail Land Use Plan
The Vail Land Use Plan was initiated in 1985 and adopted in 1986 by the Vail
Town Council. The main purpose of the Land Use Plan is two-fold:
1. To articulate the land use goals of the Town.
2. To serve as a guide for decision making by the Town.
The Vail Land Use Plan is intended to serve as a basis from which future land
use decisions may be made within the Town of Vail. The goals, as articulated
within the Land Use Plan, are meant to be used as adopted policy guidelines in
the review process for new development proposals. In conjunction with these
goals, land use categories are defined to indicate general types of land uses
which are then used to develop the Vail Land Use Map. The Land Use Plan is
not intended to be regulatory in nature, but is intended to provide a general
framework to guide decision making. Where the land use categories and zoning
conflict, existing zoning controls development on a site. The Rams-Horn Lodge
9
Condominium Building is identified in the Plan as Medium/High Density
Residential.
Medium/High Density Residential (in part):
"The overwhelming majority of the Village's lodge rooms and
condominium units are located in this land use category"... "It is
the goal of this Plan to maintain these areas as predominantly
lodging oriented with retail development limited to small amounts
of "accessory retail."
As well, the following goals and policies are pertinent to this review (in part);
1.0 General Growth/Development
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment, maintaining a
balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to
serve both the visitor and the permanent resident.
1.2 The quality of the environment including air, water and other natural
resources should be protected as the Town grows.
1.3 The quality of development should be maintained and upgraded
whenever possible..
1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (infill areas).
2.0 Skier/Tourist Concerns
2.1 The community should emphasize its role as a destination resort while
accommodating day skiers.
5.0 Residential
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in
existing, platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high
hazards do not exist.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made available through
private efforts, assisted by limited incentives, provided by the Town of
Vail with appropriate restrictions.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be preserved and
upgraded. Additional employee housing needs should be
accommodated at varied sites throughout the community.
Vail Village Master Plan
The Vail Village Master Plan is based on the premise that the Village can be
planned and designed as a whole. The Vail Village Master Plan is intended to be
10
consistent with the Vail Village Urban Design Guide Plan, and along with the
Guide Plan, it underscores the importance of the relationship between the built
environment and public spaces. Furthermore, the Master Plan provides a clearly
stated set of goals and objectives outlining how the Village will grow in the future.
Goals for Vail Village are summarized in six major goal statements. While there
is a certain amount of overlap between these six goals, each focuses on a
particular aspect of the Village and the community as a whole. A series of
objectives outline specific steps toward achieving each stated goat. Policy
statements have been developed to guide the Town's decision-making in
achieving each of the stated objectives, whether it be through the review of
private sector development proposals, or in implementing capital improvement
projects. (Listed in part}:
Goal #1 Encourage high quality redevelopment while preserving the
unique architectural scale of the Village in order to sustain its
sense of community and identity.
1.2 Objective: Encourage the upgrading and redevelopment of
residential and commercial facilities.
1.3 Objective: Enhance new development and redevelopment
through public improvements done by private developers working
in cooperation with the Town.
1.3.1 Policy: Public improvements shall be developed with the
participation of the private sector working with the Town.
Goal #2 To foster a strong tourist industry and promote year-round
economic health and viability for the Village and for the
community as a whole.
2.1 Objective: Recognize the variety of land uses found in the 10
sub-areas Throughout the Village and allow for development that

VI.
Town of Vail Streetscape Master Plan
The 1991 Town of Vail Streetscape Master Plan was written and adopted (in
part) to provide clear design direction for certain public and private improvements
associated with any public and/or private re-development projects within the
Town. The purpose of the Plan is "to provide a comprehensive and coordinated
conceptual design for streetscape improvements that: 1) is supported by the
community; 2) enriches the aesthetic appearance of the Town; and 3)
emphasizes the importance of craftsmanship and creative design in order to
create an excellent pedestrian experience"
The plan is divided into "sub-areas" or study areas. For purposes of this review,
the Rams-Horn property is located within the "East Village" sub-area.

REVIEW CRITERIA
The following section of this memorandum is included to provide the Applicant,
community, Staff, and Commission with. an advanced understanding of the
criteria and findings That will be used by the reviewing boards in making a final
decision on the proposed application.
Chapter 9 -Special and Miscellaneous Districts
12-9A-8: DESIGN CRITERIA:
The following design criteria shall be used as the principal criteria in evaluating
the merits of the proposed special development district. It shall be the burden of
the applicant to demonstrate that submittal material and the proposed
development plan comply with each of the following standards, or demonstrate
that one or more of them is not applicable, or that a practical solution consistent
with fhe public interest has been achieved:
14
A. Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment,
neighborhood and adjacent properties relative to architectural design,
scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones, identity, character, visual
integrity and orientation.
Overall Compatibility
The Applicant is proposing a major alteration to the layout and design of the
existing residential units and the exterior of the existing building which Staff
believes will have positive overall impacts on the exterior architecture and
fenestration of the building, as well as on the immediate environment
(adjacent properties) and neighborhood. Staff believes that the proposed
improvements will positively affect building mass, bulk, building height and
character of the immediate and surrounding environment.
Bulk and Mass
Staff believes the proposed improvements to add an additional single story
and expand certain units within the existing three story building are
consistent with the Vail Comprehensive Plan. While the overall mass of the
building will increase commensurate with the addition of a building story
and certain expansions to the existing building footprint, Staff believes that
the Applicant has presented plans that enhance the overall massing,
composition and appearance of the structure by introducing new forms
extending out from the first and second floor of the building, as well as, new
roof forms that will add variety to the overall roof composition. In addition,
Staff believes the proposed application of exterior materials, specifically the
introduction of substantial amounts of stone veneer at key locations
(foundation level and at chimneys) and the use of stucco and wood siding
above a stone veneer base, aid in "stepping down" the mass of the building
from the pedestrian level.
However, Staff suggests the Commission review the increased bulk
(building footprint) within site setbacks, as well as, the enclosure of the
stairwell and additional roof forms proposed on the north east corner of the
building, adjacent to the All Seasons development. Although the Applicant
is not proposing to construct improvements any closer to the All Seasons
property, by enclosing an existing stairwell there will be the appearance of
increased bulk and mass in close proximity to adjacent building
improvements.
Building Height
As proposed at four (4) stories and a maximum height of approximately 56
feet, Staff believes the proposed additions generally comply with the goals
and objectives of the Vail Village Master Plan, but that they are contrary to
the specific language establishing building height restrictions in Ordinance
27, Series of 1987, SDD No. 17 which states:
"Heights of structures shall be as indicated on the elevations listed
above but in no case shall exceed 42 feet on any part of the site."
15
According to the Conceptual Building Height Plan contained in the Vail
Village Master Plan, the East-Village Sub-Area calls fora maximum
building height of 3-4 stories. The plan states (in part):
"Generally speaking, it is the goal of this Plan to maintain the
concentration of low scale buildings in the core areas while
positioning larger buildings along the northern periphery (along
Frontage Road)..."
Further:
"The building heights expressed on this illustrative Plan are
intended to provide general guidelines. Additional study should be
made during specific project review relative to a building's height
impact and the streetscape and relationship to surrounding
structures. "
The Rams-Horn Lodge Condominium Building, while not considered part of
the "core" area of the Village, is located on the periphery of the Village.
Therefore, Staff believes the proposed addition of a fourth story maintains
the intent of the Master Plan to locate larger structures on the periphery of
the core. Further, the Illustrative Plan (legend) states (in part):
"A building story is defined as 9 feet of height (no roof included).
Exact height restrictions. will be determined by zoning. Varied roof
heights within range specified is desired for each building. "
Staff believes that the Rams-Horn Lodge Condominium Building, as
proposed, meets the intent of this guideline. Most recently the adjacent
Tivoli Lodge, identified as being 3 to 4 stories tall in the Plan, established
SDD #37 in order to achieve a 56-foot height limitation. The Tivoli Lodge
contended that the 48-foot limitation (required height limit for Public
Accommodation - PA -District) did not adequately address current hotel
accommodation building trends. A 48-foot height limitation permits 9-foot
floor to floor sections with an additional 12 feet for sloping roofs as
recommended in the various town master plans (9' X 4 floors +12' = 48').
Staff believes the proposed 56-foot height of the building is appropriate in
relation to the uses proposed and in specific relation to adjacent structures
such as the Tivoli Lodge. In addition, the Commission has previously
established that an 11 foot floor plate is appropriate for properties located
within the scope of the Vail Village Master Plan.
Staff has generally accepted an 11-foot floor-to-floor building plate on
previous projects located within the scope of the Vail Village Master Plan
such as the Tivoli Lodge and the Manor Vail Lodge (the PEC voted to adopt
11 foot 6 inch floor to floor in Lionshead as a part of the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan). In addition, it has been previously
determined that a roof structure is at an appropriate size when it is 12 feet
from eave to ridge, as identified above. The proposed building forms and
widths, as well as the pitches involved on the Rams-Horn Lodge
Condominium Building will require more no more than 8 feet of roof height
16
over a majority of the building, with a minor portion extending to 11 foot in
height in order to add variety in the roof height and form, as directed by the
PEC at the October 8, 2007 work session.
Of note in this analysis is the fact that the proposed increase in building
height (and mass) will result in increased shade cast upon Vail Valley Drive
and, to a lesser degree, upon the adjacent All Seasons property.
However, Staff believes the improvements, as proposed, comply with the
goals, objectives and policies of the Vail Village Master Plan, and that the
requested deviation from the PA District height restriction of 48 feet is
consistent with previously approved re-development requests in the
immediate vicinity and within the East Village Sub-Area.
Character
As stated above, Staff believes the proposed improvements will result in a
positive, or beneficial, impact to the surrounding area. The manner in which
the Applicant proposes to increase the density of the site, without
maximizing development potential and by integrating changes into the
existing structure, is key to maintaining overall compatibility of the Rams-
Horn Lodge Condominium building with the scale and general character of
the surrounding neighborhood. Further, Staff believes the improvements to
exterior materials and detailing, improvements to existing site conditions
(i.e. improvement to existing parking areas, removal of existing vegetation
from line of sight established by the Town of Vail Public Works Department,
planting of new landscape materials in appropriate locations and the
provision of a sidewalk connection) are viewed by Staff to be
enhancements to the~area and beneficial to the Town.
B. Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and
workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
Staff believes that proposal does not change the use of the property in any
significant manner: Specifically, the Applicant is not proposing any
changes of use that deviate from the intentions of Special Development
District No. 17. Further, the proposed increase in density of both dwelling
units and attached accommodation units under this proposal, when
considered in conjunction with the reported use of the property as a
vacation rental and the proposed Valet Plan, will not have any negative
impact on the functions of the surrounding uses and activities. Staff
believes that the improvements will actually enhance compatibility with the
surrounding uses and activity.
Therefore, Staff believes the proposed uses, activities and density continue
to provide a compatible, efficient and workable relationship with
surrounding uses and activity.
17
C. Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in
Chapter 12=10 of the Vail Town Code.
The provisions of SDD No. 17, state the following:
"Parking shall be provided as indicated on the site plan, but in no
case shall the sife have the ability to park less than 41
automobiles."
As this is an SDD, Staff suggests the parking requirements for previously
approved densities and uses dictated total parking requirement; not
necessarily the provisions of Chapter 12-10 of the Vail Town Code,
Pursuant to Chapter 12-10, the current proposal requires 37 spaces.
However, the Applicant proposes 32 traditional parking spaces, with a total
of 37 spaces using a proposed Valet Plan (Attachment C). The Applicant's
proposal reflects their contention that the property's historic use and
occupancy patterns do not: generate the volume of parking normally
required of similar developments. Specifically, the Applicant suggests that,
historically, there has not been a need for all 33 parking spaces existing
between the north and south .parking lots. They further contend that the
additional density proposed will not adversely affect parking availability and
function of the on-site parking lots due to a majority of guests arriving by
airport shuttle. However, the Applicant has provided a "Valet Plan", showing
dedicated valet parking spaces in both lots in the event that additional
parking is needed.
Therefore, Staff believes that while the proposal does not comply with
requirements of Chapter 12-10, the historic and anticipated use of the
property, considered in conjunction with the proposed Valet Plan, will result
in adequate parking provision for the site.
D. Conformity with the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive
Plan, Town policies and Urban Design Plan.
Employee Housing Provision
In February of 2007, the Town Council passed Ordinances No. 7 and No. 8,
Series of 2007, which enacted regulations for the provision of employee
housing units through several possible mitigation methods for all projects in
the Public Accommodation (PA) District. Within these ordinances a nexus
was established between commercial and residential development and the
generation of employees was established. In adopting these ordinances a
methodology was established to determine the impact of a commercial and
residential development on the need for employee housing at a goal of
providing 30% of the housing generated by a project.
Furthermore. there were provisions for meeting the requirement for
providing employee housing through several different options or
combination of options. The options include:
• Provision of on-site units;
18
• Conveyance of property on-site;
• Provision of off-site units;
• Payment of fees-in-lieu; and
• Conveyance of property off-site
A proposed development or redevelopment may choose to propose any of
the above options or combination of options. Within the two Ordinances, the
Planning and Environmental Commission was given the authority to review
an applicant's proposal for mitigating the employee generation of a project
and grant approval of the proposal. There are some specific instances
were the Town Council must also accept the proposal for mitigating the
employee requirement generated by a project.
The Staff has reviewed the proposal for compliance with Ordinance No.(s)
7 and 8, Series of 2007, and found it to be accurate in calculating the
mitigation requirement for the proposed Rams-Horn Lodge Condominium
project. Staff has attached the .proposed mitigation plan, as outlined in
Section 3.2 of the Project Overview/Summary by Pylman & Associates
(Attachment B). At its October 8, 2007, public hearing several members of
the Commission suggest that the proposed mitigation of providing one EHU
on-site, in addition to providing the remainder of the mitigation as pay-in-
lieu, was appropriate.
Within the Plan the applicant proposes to mitigate the housing requirement,
based on a total increase in gross residential floor area (GRFA) of 15,761
square feet, by the incorporation of a single employee housing unit on site
measuring 1,105 square feet and apayment-in-lieu of providing housing on
or off site in the amount of $104,363.00, as calculated below:
15,761 (new/additional) GRFA x 10% = 1,576 sq. ft. mitigation required
1,576 sq. ft. - 1,105 sq. ft. unit proposed = 471 sq. ft. remaining
441 sq. ft. x $236.65/sq. ft. _ $111,462 payment-in-lieu required
Currently the Town has no plan for the funds that may be collected from the
payment-in-lieu option for mitigating housing requirements. Funds collected
from this option could be used to construct units or to purchase units and
then resell them after placing a deed restriction upon the property and
selling them for a more affordable price.
Vail Land Use Plan
The goals contained in the Vail Land Use Plan are to be used as the
Town's policy guidelines during the review process for the amendment of a
special development district. Staff has reviewed the Vail Land Use Plan, the
Vail Village Master Plan and Streetscape Master Plan and believes the
following goals, objectives and policies are relevant to the review of this
proposal:
19

or visible from, public areas.
21
Goal #4 To preserve existing open space areas and expand
greeenspace opportunities
4.1 Objective: Improve existing open space areas and create new
plazas with green,space and pocket parks. Recognize the
different roles of each type of open space iri forming the overall
fabric of the Village.
4.1.2 Policy: The development of new public plazas and
improvements to existing plazas (public art, streetscape features,
seating areas, etc.) shall be strongly encouraged to reinforce their
roles as attractive people places.
Goal #6 To insure the continued improvement of the vital operational
elements of the Village.
6.2 Objective: Provide for the safe and efficient functions of fire,
police and public utilities within the context of an aesthetically
pleasing resort setting.
6.2.2 Policy: Minor improvements (landscaping, decorative paving,
open dining decks, etc.), maybe permitted on Town of Vail land or
right-of--way (with review and approval by the Town Council and
Planning and Environmental Commission when applicable)
provided that Town operations such as snow removal, street
maintenance and fire department access and operation are able
to be maintained at current levels. Special design (i. e. heated
pavement), maintenance fees, or other considerations may be
required to offset impacts on Town services.
Staff believes the proposed development generally furthers the above
referenced goals, objectives and policies and, therefore, is in general
compliance with the Vail Comprehensive Plan.
E. Identification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that
affect the property on v~rhich the special development district is
proposed.
According to the Official Town of Vail Geologic Hazard Maps, the Rams-
Horn Lodge Condominium development site is not located in any
geologically sensitive areas or within the 100-year floodplain of Gore Creek
or its tributaries.
F. Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions
designed to produce a functional development responsive and
sensitive to natural features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality
of the community.
22
Site Plan
The proposed improvements will impact existing vegetation and will
produce additional encroachment of building footprint into existing
setbacks. Furthermore, the proposed expansion of building footprint will
result in a reduction in the amount of landscaped area on the site. However,
proposed improvements to existing parking areas, the addition of a new site
wall with a public art component along the south side of the property and
the addition of a paved sidewalk connection along Vail Valley Drive
represent substantial enhancements (both functionally and aesthetically) to
the property in context to the surrounding area and in light of Town's
streetscape improvement goals and policies. As well, the Applicant has
demonstrated that despite a reduction in total landscaped area on the site,
the site will still be in compliance with the 30% minimum area required
under Public Accommodation (PA) District.
Although the removal of existing trees is generally not ericouraged to
accommodate additions to existing buildings, it should be noted that the
removal of trees along the south and south west sides of the property in this
instance presents a benefit to the Town by creating an improved "line-of-
sight" on for motorists traveling on Vail Valley Drive. As well, Staff believes
that some existing, mature trees in these locations appear to be in poor
overall health and are .planted directly adjacent to the existing structure -
generally limiting the future growth and health of such plantings.
Staff recommends that the Applicant be required to have any and all
remaining trees (to be preserved) on-site inspected by a professional,
consulting Arborist prior to any construction. activities being commenced on-
site. Staff further recommends that such Arborist be employed during and
after any construction activities on-site to monitor the health of such trees.
As well, Staff believes that the Applicant should study the proposed
relocation of the existing trash dumpster enclosure, currently located on the
western most portion of Tract F-1 (south parking lot). As proposed on the
eastern most portion of the north parking lot, Staff believes a conflict will be
created between passenger vehicle parking and maneuverability, and that
the location will force trash trucks to exit the property onto Vail Valley Drive
in a reverse gear/motion.
Building Design
Staff believes that the proposed design of the building, including interior
changes, as well as, new massing, roof composition, window and door
fenestration and material usage, are designed to increase or enhance
functionality of the property while being responsive and sensitive to the
aesthetic quality of the community.
Therefore, Staff believes that the overall aesthetic quality of the community
would be enhanced by the proposed exterior changes and physical
improvements proposed by the Applicants will increase the functionality of
the site.
G
A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off-site traffic circulation.
23
The Applicant is proposing changes that will generally improve on-site
parking and maneuverability and which will enhance pedestrian circulation
around and through the site. Specifically, the Applicant has agreed to
install a portion of sidewalk, within the public way, to connect portions of
existing sidewalk along Vail Valley Drive. In addition, the Applicant
proposes to replace the existing asphalt driveway and parking lot located
on the north side of the property with a heated paver driveway and parking
lot, thus improving circulation for vehicles and pedestrians, guests and
passers-by.
H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to
optimize and preserve natural features, recreation, views and
functions.
The Applicant proposes to replace any vegetation removed for construction
of the proposed additions with plantings sized and located to blend the
building with the site, preserve views and improve "line-of-sight"
across/through the south/south west portion of the property.
Although the Applicant has proposed some type of public art project (mural)
be incorporated into a proposed site wall located along the south property
line of Lot A, Staff believes that the Applicant should be required to work
with Town Staff toward clarification of the proposed art (mural) -providing a
Rams-Horn Lodge Condominiums Art in Public Places Plan, including
details of the wall and what type, size, and materials will be incorporated
into the design. As well, Staff suggests that the Applicant be required to
provide details regarding an additional site, either within the property
boundaries of the Rams-Horn Lodge Condominium development site, or
within the public way (to be approved via the "permission to proceed" by the
Vail Town Council), wherein an second, separate public art project will be
provided to the Town. Staff requests the Commission give direction to the
Applicant and Staff as to the appropriateness of this recommendation and
that the Commission discuss the related value of public art to be provided.
I. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable,
functional and efficient relationship throughout the development of
the special development district.
Staff is not aware of any intention on the Applicant's behalf to phase this
project, however, should a phasing plan be proposed, this criterion must
and will be met in full.
IX. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department recommends that the Planning and
Environmental Commission forwards a recommendation of approval, with
conditions of the proposed SDD amendment, pursuant to Section 12-9A-10,
Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to the Vail Town Council. Staff's
recommendation is based upon the review of the criteria found in Section VIII of
24
this memorandum and the evidence and testimony presented, subject to the
following conditions:
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to forward a
recommendation of approval to the Vail Town Council of this proposed
amendment to a Special Development District, the Department of Community
Development recommends the Commission pass the following motion:
"The Planning and Environmental Commission approves, with conditions,
the Applicant's request for a major amendment to Special Development
District No. 17, Rams-Horn Lodge, pursuant to Section 12-9A-10,
Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for additional density,
bulk and mass within SDD No. 17, located at 416 Vail Valley Drive; and
setting forth details in regard thereto. "
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this
amendment, the Community Development Department suggests the following
condition:
That the Developer shall have any and all remaining frees (to be
preserved) on-site inspected by a professional, consulting Arborist
prior to any construction activities being commenced on-site.
2. That the Developer shall study the proposed relocation of the existing
trash dumpster enclosure to ensure that the trash removal operations
do not conflict with required vehicle parking, vehicle maneuverability
and that trash. trucks are not required to exit the property in a reverse

3. That the Developer receives final review and approval of the proposed
development plan by the Town of Vail Design Review Board, prior to
making an application for the issuance of a building permit.
4. That the Developer submits a complete set of civil engineered
drawings of fhe Approved Development Plans including the required
off site improvements, to the Town of Vail Community Development
Department for review and approval of the drawings, prior to making
application for the issuance of a building permit for the Rams-Horn
Lodge Condominiums improvements.
5. That fhe Developer shall address all the comments and conditions
identified in the memorandum from the Town Engineer dated
November 19, 2007, (Attachment D) on the plans submitted in

of $111, 462 prior to the issuance of the building permit for Rams-Horn
Lodge Condominiums.
7. That the Developer prepares aRams-Horn Lodge Condominiums Art
in Public Places Plan, for input and comment by the Town of Vail Art
25
in Public Places Board, prior to the request for a temporary certificate
of occupancy. Subject to the above input and comment by the Art in
Public Places Board, the Applicant will work with Town Staff to
determine the type and location of the art to be provided. Said Plan
shall include the funding for a minimum of two separate public art
improvements to be developed in conjunction with the Rams-Horn
Lodge Condominium project.
8. That the Developer provides the legally executed and duly recorded
Type IV deed restriction with the Eagle County Clerk & Recorder's
Office for the on-site employee housing unit, and that said unit shall
be made available for occupancy, prior to the issuance of a temporary
certificate of occupancy for the Rams-Horn Lodge Condominium
project.
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this
amendment, the Community Development recommends the Commission makes
