1. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council for the establishment of a new
special development district, pursuant to Article 12-9A, Special Development (SDD) District, Vail
Town Code, located at 303 Gore Creek Drive, Units 7 through 14 (Vail Rowhouses)/Lots 7
through 13, Block 5, Vail Village Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC080074)
Applicant: Christopher Galvin, represented by K.H. Webb Architects
Planner: Bill Gibson
ACTION: Recommendation of approval
MOTION: Viele SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 5-0-0
Bill Gibson gave a presentation per the staff memorandum recommending denial of the
proposed special development district. He highlighted changes made to the application since
previous public hearings.
Dominic Mauriello, of the Mauriello Planning Group, representing the applicant, gave a power
point presentation detailing the history of the development and the requests contained within the
Special Development District application.
Jim Lamont, Vail Homeowners Association, provided greater insight on the history of the site.
He believed that the Vail Row Houses were a part of the original Vail filing and that these
structures were some of the first structures built in Vail. He added that in 1974 the overhaul to
the Zoning Code was the result to the impacts seen by the constructed Mountain Haus. He
continued, by suggesting that the creation of a new zone district was more appropriate for these
townhouse style structures. He further discussed the height of structures in the neighborhood.
He concluded by stating that if an SDD is applied to this development, then serious consideration
needs to be given to its application to Vail Trails East and West and the Texas Townhomes.
Connie Knight, resident of the Vorlaufer, said did not see a need for a special development
district and that the benefit of encouraging redevelopment is not really a benefit. She noted that
most of the units have recently remodeled, and this SDD will only help the redevelop one lot.
Pa e 1

She expressed concern that the proposed additional floor area will be built on the Gore Creek
side of the buildings. She is against developing two feet from the new property line along the
park. She said the Inclusionary zoning change will only result in additional fee-in-lieu money,
and not in actual new employee housing. She also noted that the applicant's comparison to the
Willows was not appropriate since the Willows projects was a complete tear down.
Dominic Mauriello spoke again and noted that the proposed SDD will create a comprehensive
plan for the HOA as a whole.
Commissioner Kurz asked about creating another zone district versus a special development
district. Bill Gibson responded that creating a new zone district was discussed with the
applicants. He noted that from an applicant's perspective, creating a new zone district would
involve the coordination of many more property owners, would require addressing many issues
that may only relate to one the many similar non-conforming properties (i.e. Vail Rowhouses,
Vail Trails East and West, Texas Townhomes, etc.) which would likely involve a more
complicated and lengthy review process. For the applicant, the same outcomes could be
achieved through the SDD process.
Dominic Mauriello noted that a blanket rezoning of these similar properties would be difficult
given the unique non-conformities of each development site.
Commissioner Tjossem noted her support for the proposed SDD.
Commissioner Lindall asked Dominic Mauriello to clarify the GRFA cap proposed for Lot 13.
Dominic Mauriello clarified that at previous work session the Commission noted concern about
the potential bulk and mass for Lot 13 being out of character with the other units given its larger
lot size. Therefore, the applicant is proposing to cap the allowable GRFA for this one lot at a rate
lower than what is proposed for the other lots.
Commissioner Viele noted that the Town should apply similar floor area ratios to this project as it
has to other recent projects in the village such as the Willows. He also noted that the applicant's
proposal to dedicate land to Roger Staub Park is a significant public benefit.
Commissioner Kjesbo stated his support for the application. He described the difficulties in
maintaining one-half the existing floor area to maintain the units grandfathered status from his
past experience remodeling some of the Vail Rowhouse units. He noted that many of the units
could be converted into single units by removing the existing second kitchens, which he believes
are sometimes maintained solely to give the owners a second "250 Addition". By allowing the
additional floor area without requiring the second kitchen, the lots could become single units and
could therefore comply with their required parking space numbers. He recommended that lots
that don't remove their second unit could pay-in-lieu for the additional required parking spaces.
He noted that site coverage and building height limits will control the bulk and mass on these
properties more than GRFA limits. He does not oppose to the GRFA increases. He also noted
his support for an SDD rather than creating a new zone district due to the unique circumstances
affecting each of the neighboring properties.
In making his motion, Commissioner Viele made the additional finding that this application is
consistent with the precedents set for redevelopment in the village by the Willows SDD.

2. A request for a final recommendation to the Vail Town Council for prescribed regulations
amendments to Title 11, Sign Regulations, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Section 11-3-3,
Prescribed Regulations Amendment, Vail Town Code, to establish regulations for building wrap
signs within the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC090006)
Applicant: Vail Valley Foundation
Planner: Rachel Friede
ACTION: Recommendation of approval (failed)
MOTION: Viele SECOND: Tjossem VOTE: 2-3-0 (Kurz, Kjesbo, and Lindall opposed)
Rachel Friede gave a presentation per the staff inemorandum recommending denial of the
proposed text amendments.
Scott Bluhm, representing the Vail Valley Foundation, asked the Commission to consider that the
signs would only be permitted on building under construction and not on completed buildings.
Commissioners Lindall, Kurz, and Kjesbo were not in support of the project as it was off-site
advertising with an inappropriate scale.
Commissioners Viele and Tjossem supported the proposal because of visual interest on
buildings which are not attractive during construction. Commissioner Tjossem provided Park
City as a good example of where these types of signs have been used to add vitality for special
events.

Commissioner Kjesbo recused as his company will be performing the work being proposed if

Nicole Peterson gave a presentation per the staff inemorandum.
Jen McKelvie, from Fritzlen Pierce Architects, stated that the applicant agrees with the Staff
memo, except for condition No. 1, which stated, "The applicant shall submit revised development
plans that illustrate the proposed ski storage lockers setback a minimum of 5 feet from the west
property line, prior to the final review of the development plans by the Town of Vail Design
Review Board."
Commissioner Lindall asked why the applicant would not move the lockers to the 5 foot setback.
Jen McKelvie, from Fritzlen Pierce Architects, stated that the existing lockers are actually 4.5 feet
from the property line.
Patrick Pinnett, of NEDBO Construction, representing the applicant stated that the HOA would
like to hold gatherings on the patio, which requires more space, which is why the proposal is for
an additional 2 foot encroachment into the setback and easement on the west side. He also
explained that the existing water line, that is cause for the easement, is quite far from the 10 foot
easement, and that the water line is being moved farther away, through current improvements.
Commissioner Viele asked if Staff would reconsider, and allow the encroachment, due to the
water-line being moved.
Warren Campbell stated that Staff believes the proposed lockers should not encroach farther
than the existing lockers.
Commissioner Viele stated that he did not support condition No. 1 and that a two foot setback
was adequate.
Commissioners Kurz and Tjossem expressed there support for the project.

Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public
Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, priorto submitting an application to the

V. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Vail Villaqe Master Plan
The Vail Village Master Plan is based on the premise that the Village can be planned and
designed as a whole. It is intended to guide the Town in developing land use laws and
policies for coordinating development by the public and private sectors in Vail Village and in
implementing community goals for public improvements. It is intended to result in
ordinances and policies that will preserve and improve the unified and attractive appearance
of Vail Village. Most importantly, this Master Plan shall serve as a guide to the staff, review
boards, and Town Council in analyzing future proposals for development in Vail Village and
in legislating effective ordinances to deal with such development. Furthermore, the Master
Plan provides a clearly stated set of goals and objectives outlining how the Village will grow
in the future.
The Vail Village Master Plan is intended to serve as a guide to the staff, review boards and
Town Council in analyzing future proposals for development in Vail Village and in legislating
effective ordinances to deal with such development. The most significant elements of the
Master Plan are the goals, objectives, policies and action steps. They are the working tools
of the Master Plan. They establish the broad framework and vision, but also layout the
specific policies and action steps that will be used to implement the Plan.
As noted on page 35 of the Master Plan,
"It is important to note that the likelihood of project approval will be greatest for those
proposals that can fully comply with the Vail Village MasterPlan."
Staff believes this statement re-emphasizes that the Master Plan is a general document
providing advisory guidelines to aid the Town in analyzing development proposals and that
full compliance is not required in order for a project to be approved.
The stated goals of the Vail Village Master Plan which staff believes are applicable to this
application appear in Section VIII under staff's assessment of Criterion D.
Specific Sub- Area Details found in the Vail Village Master Plan
Mixed Use Sub Area (#1)
The Mixed-Use sub-area is a prominent activity center for Vail Village. It is
distinguished from the Village core by the larger sca/e buildings and by the limited
auto traffic along East Meadow Drive. Comprised of five major development
projects, this sub-area is characterized by a mixture of residential/lodging and
commercial activity.
There is a great deal of potential forimprovements to both public and private facilities
in the area. Among these is the opportunity to develop gateway entries to the Village
at the 4-way stop and at the intersection of Vail Road and Meadow Drive. It is a/so a
long term goa/ to strengthen the connection between this area and the Village core
area by reinforcing the established pedestrian linkages. Pedestrianization in this area
3
4/2l/2009
6-3-3
may benefit from the development of retail infill with associated pedestrian
improvements along East Meadow Drive and the development of public access to
Gore Creek.
A significant increase in the Village's overnight bed base will occur in this sub-area
with the development of the final phase of the Vail Village Inn project. In addition,
commercial and residential/lodging development potential is identified in sub-area
concepts 3, 4, 6, and 8. The completion of these projects will essentially /eave the
sub-area "built ouY'
#1-6 Crossroads Infill
Commercial infill over new underground parking lot in conjunction with a
large public plaza with greenspace area (existing and new parking demand
to be provided on site). While configuration ofinfill may be done a numberof
ways, it is the overall intent to replace existing surface parking with
pedestrian corridors into a commercial area, as well as to provide a strong
building edge on Meadow Drive and streetscape improvements.
Improvements of the planted buffer adjacent to the Frontage Road is a/so
important. Relocation of the loading and delivery functions and entry to
parking structure is strongly encouraged to reduce traffic on Meadow Drive.
Potential to improve fire access a/so exists in the redevelopment scheme.
Special emphasis on 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 3.1, 4.1, 5.1, 6.1, and 6.2.
Town of Vail Zoninq Requlations

VIII. THE SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT MAJOR AMENDMENT REVIEW PROCESS
Chapter 12-9 of the Town Code provides for the review of a major amendment to an
established special development districts in the Town of Vail. According to Section 12-9A-1,
the purpose of a special development district is,
"To encourage flexibility and creativity in the development of land, in order to
promote its most appropriate use; to improve the design characterand quality of the
new development within the Town; to facilitate the adequate and economical
provision of streets and utilities; to preserve the natural and scenic features of open
space areas; and to further the overall goa/s of the community as stated in the Vail
Comprehensive Plan. An approved development plan for a Special Development
District, in conjunction with the property's underlying zone district, shall establish the
requirements forguiding development and uses of property included in the Special
Development District."

The Town Code provides nine design criteria which shall be used in evaluating the merits of
a major amendment to an established SDD. It shall be the burden of the applicant to
demonstrate that submittal material and the proposed development plan complywith each of
the following standards, or demonstrate that one or more of them is not applicable, or that a
practical solution consistent with the public interest has been achieved. The following is a
staff analysis of the project's compliance with the nine SDD review criteria:
A. Consideration of Factors Reqardinq Special Development Districts:
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.
In a memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission dated January 23, 2006,
staff discussed in detail the architectural design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones,
identity, character, visual integrity and orientation in great detail. As this proposal fora major
amendment to SDD No. 39, Crossroads, does not include any changes to the architectural
design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones, identity, character, visual integrity and
orientation of the approved structure staff has not included the discussion on these review
points. As stated previously the major amendment proposes to increase the number of
dwelling units from 77 to 78 and the GRFA by 1,999 square feet. These changes are
accomplished within the approved bulk, mass, and height of the structure. There are no
changes to the approved heights and setbacks of the structure.
Staff believes the proposed amendments comply with this criterion.
B. Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and workable
relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
In a memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission dated January 23, 2006,
staff discussed in detail, the uses, activity, and density of the redeveloped Crossroads site
and its compatibility to surrounding uses and activity. In that analysis Staff showed how the
GRFA being proposed within the project was less than possible development potential of the
public plaza area in relation to the recommendations of the Vail Village Master Plan on
height and density.
The proposal to increase the number of dwelling units by one and GRFA by 1,999 square
feet modestly affects the density per acre on the site. As this proposal is to convert a single
retail space to residential within the approved bulk and mass Staff does not believe there is
a negative impact to the surrounding properties with regard to density on the Solaris project
with this amendment.
During the initial review of the Solaris project there was a great deal of discussion centered
on the uses and location of those uses within the project. There was initial concern about
the location of retail on the second floor of the project and its viability as many places and
studies have shown that it is difficult to draw pedestrians up to a second floor retail level.
Through the review process the applicant provided evidence that the second floor retail
could indeed be successful. Reasons given for the success were the are shape of the retail
allowing for better visibility, the ability to control tenant mix and locate "anchors or big draws"
on the second floor, the provision of a walkway on the second floor containing benches for
pedestrians and areas for activity generation. The particular space proposed to be
6
4/2l/2009
6-3-6
converted was highlighted as a location where an establishment on the second floor would
have an outdoor patio which could be a food and beverage business with patrons sitting on
the deck creating excitement and vitality on the second floor. The conversion of this space
eliminates the possibility of provided for heightened activity on the second floor thus
potentially being a draw to pedestrians to explore the second floor. However, throughout the
Design Review process and the Building Permit review process changes were made and
approved which made the proposed space potentially less viable to serve in the suggested
manor. Those changes were the design of the stairs to reach the second floor retail in the
south west corner of the site and its impacts to the walkway located in front of this retail
space on the second floor. In refining the stair design to make them as inviting to
pedestrians to go up to the second floor the walkway in front of this commercial space was
cut back leaving it with eight feet of frontage on the pedestrian walkway. The proposed
design does not convert the entirety of the retail space to residential. In order to provide all
retail frontages on the second floor walkway that portion of the space which had frontage on
the walkway was added to the adjacent retail space. The proposed residential unit does not
have any frontage on the second floor pedestrian walkway. Staff does have some concerns
about the impact of this conversion from a retail space to a residential unit which may not
generate as much "activity" on the patio which will be visible from both directions on Meadow
Drive.
In further review of the application staff identified within the adopted SDD No. 39,
Crossroads, text restricting the conversion of tenant spaces as shown on the "Approved
Development Plan" prohibiting the conversion of retail spaces to residential units. These
portions of text have been underlined on pages 2 and 5 in the draft Ordinance No. 7, Series
of 2009, attached (Attachment C) to this memorandum. Through this major amendment
proposal the applicant is requesting approval of an amended "Approved Development Plan"
which would convert one of the tenant spaces from retail to residential. If the proposed
amendments are approved the text and condition found in the Ordinance do not need to
change as the "Approved Development Plan" will no longer depict the converted space as
retail.
Employee Housing Requirements
As indicated in a number of the goals and objectives of the Town's Master Plans, providing
affordable housing for employees is a critical issue which should be addressed through the
planning process for SDD proposals. In reviewing the proposal presented to the Planning
and Environmental Commission on January 23, 2006, for employee housing needs, staff
relied on the Town of Vail Employee Housing Report. This report has been used by the staff
in the past to evaluate employee housing needs. That analysis showed a net new
generation of employees by the Crossroads project to be six (6) employee beds. In the most
recent approval of Ordinance No. 21, Series of 2007, the Town Council required a total of 22
employee beds be provided off-site in conjunction with the Solaris project. The conversion
of the proposed space from retail to residential does not generate an increase in the
employee housing generation. This is due to the recent minor amendments which were
approved to increase retail square footage by approximately 700 square feet and the
rounding up of the beds to be provided in conjunction with those applications. Furthermore
there is a lesser employee generation requirement for residential than retail resulting in a
decrease in the requirement. A more detailed explanation can be found on page 5 of the
applicant's request, which staff has reviewed and concurs with the findings.
Staff believes that the proposal does comply with this criterion.
7
4/2l/2009
6-3-7
C. Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in Chapter 12-10 of
the Vail Town Code.
As indicated in the Zoning Analysis outlined in Section VI of this memorandum, the total
number of required parking spaces for the Crossroads project is 217 spaces. The
applicants are proposing to provide a total of 304 spaces, all of which are to be provided in
the proposed underground parking structure. There are 87 additional parking spaces
proposed to be constructed above and beyond that which is required. Of these additional
parking spaces there are 81 proposed to be in a private parking club and the remaining six
(6) the applicant is proposing will serve as additional public benefit.
The applicant has not proposed any changes to the compliant loading and delivery facility
associated with the project.
Staff believes that the application complies with this criterion.
D. Conformity with the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan, Town
policies and Urban Design Plan.
In a memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission dated January23, 2006,
staff discussed in detail the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan, Town
policies and Urban Design Plan and how they applied to the Crossroads redevelopment. As
this proposal for a major amendment will affect the number of dwelling units on the site staff
will focus on this aspect of the proposal and its impact on this criterion.
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 establishment of a special development district.
Staff has reviewed the Vail Land Use Plan and believes the following goals and policies are
relevant to the review of this major amendment to SDD No. 39, Crossroads, proposal:
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.
1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (infill areas).
4.0 Village Core / Lionshead
4.2 Increased density in the Core areas is acceptable so long as the
existing characterof each area is preserved thorough implementation
of the Urban Design Guide Plan.
4.3 The ambiance of Vail Village is important to the identity of Vail and
should be preserved. (scale, alpine character, small town feeling,
mountains, natural setting, intimate size, cosmopolitan feeling,
environmental quality.)
8
4/2l/2009
6-3-8
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.
5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the marketplace demands
for a full range of housing types.
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 Villaqe Master Plan
Staff believes that the following stated goals of the Vail Village Master Plan are applicable to
this major amendment application:
Goa/ #2: To foster a strong tourist industry and promote year-around
economic health and viability for the Village and for the community as a
whole.
Objective 2.5: Encourage the continued upgrading, renovation and
maintenance of existing lodging and commercial facilities to better
serve the needs of our guests.
Staff believes that the application complies with all the goals and objectives of the Vail
Comprehensive plan.
E. Identification and mitigation of natural and/or geologic hazards that affect the
property on which the special development district is proposed.
According to the Official Town of Vail Geologic Hazard Maps, the Crossroads development
site is not located in any geologically sensitive areas. Staff believes that the application
complies with this criterion.
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.
In a memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission dated January 23, 2006,
staff discussed in detail the site plan, building design and location and open space
provisions in great detail. As this proposal for a major amendment to SDD No. 39,
Crossroads, does not include any changes to the site plan, building design and location and
open space provisions of the approved structure staff has not included the discussion on
these review points.
9
4/2l/2009
6-3-9
Staff believes the proposal complies with this criterion.
G. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing on
and off-site traffic circulation.
In a memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission dated January23, 2006,
staff discussed in detail the vehicular and pedestrian circulation both on-site and off-site. As
the proposed major amendment does not affect these elements staff believes the proposal
continues to comply with this criterion.
H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and functions.
In a memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission dated January 23, 2006,
staff discussed in detail the landscaping and open spaces included in the Crossroads
redevelopment. Furthermore the Design review Board provided their input on the refinement
of these spaces. As this proposed major amendment does not affect these elements staff
believes the proposal continues to comply with this criterion.
1. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the special development
district.
The applicant is proposing to construct the project in one phase and a subdivision of the
property will be necessary to facilitate the development of the Crossroads project.
IX. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department recommends that the Planning and
Environmental Commission forwards a recommendation of approval, with conditions, to
the Vail Town Council on a proposed major amendment to Special Development District No.
39, Crossroads, pursuant to Article 12-9(A), Special Development District, Vail Town Code,
to allow for an increase in the number of dwelling units from 77 units to 78 units, located at
141 and 143 Meadow Drive/Lot P, Block 5D, Vail Village Filing 1. Staff's recommendation is
based upon a review of the criteria and findings as outlined in this memorandum and from
the evidence and testimony presented.

I. Introduction
We are requesting a major amendment to Special Development District No. 39, Solaris,
to allow for the addition of a dwelling unit, increasing the approval from 77 dwelling
units to 78 dwelling units. The application includes the conversion of 1,999 sq. ft. of
area previously indicated as retail space into a 1,999 sq. ft. residential condominium.
This retail space has been identified as a location that is not in a desirable location for
retail as it is located at the far end of the promenade level (second floor) with limited
exposure to the promenade walk (see Promenade Level Floor Plan below). Leasing
this space to any retailer has been difficult as a result, and retailers have identified this
space as problematic for commercial uses. Additionally, the proposed amendment
will allow Solaris to continue to be a viable project during this period of economic
hardship by converting a burdened retail area to a revenue producing residential
space.

It is important to note that various amendments have been reviewed and approved
as we have continually improved and refined the retail experience. Based on input
from potential retailers, there has been a general shifting of retail spaces, creating
some smaller retail opportunities to compliment the larger retail spaces. In the
approved minor amendment approved in December of 2008, nearly 700 sq. ft. of
commercial space was added to the plaza level.
The proposal will have little impact on revenues and vitality to the Town given the
recent minor amendment which added retail on the first floor. The proposed change
2
Crossroads Kcdcvclopmcnt
llauricllo Planning Group, LLC

6-4-3
actually reduces impacts to employee housing and parking. The applicant is
proposing to provide 22 employee beds as a public benefit. In addition, the public
benefit package for Solaris is extensive, and includes the following:
• Outdoor Ice Skating Rink for public skating in winter/water-recreation feature in
the spring and summer months;
• New public plaza of 1/2-acre (24,000 sq. ft.) in the heart of Town for public
gatherings and events that occupies approximately 20% of the property
controlled by the Town via a General Improvement District with guaranteed
public access;
• Public accessible restrooms at the pedestrian level;
• Approximately 70,000 sq. ft. of new high quality retail and restaurant space at
the pedestrian level and one floor above, including a 3-screen state of the art
movie theater and 10-lane bowling alley with a sports cafe/arcade;
• Relocated loading and delivery docks (Frontage Road access) with five bays
available to adjacent properties;
• New streetscape and pedestrian improvements on all sides of site including
landscape medians in the South Frontage Road;
• Buffering of I-70 highway noise from the pedestrian areas south of the project;
• $1.1 million in public art;
• New heated sidewalks around the entire project;
• New raised landscape median in South Frontage Road;
• Reconstructed Village Center Road as a heated paver roadway;
• Reconstructed Willow Bridge Road and East Meadow Drive as a heated paver
area;
• Off-site employee housing to accommodate 22 employees;
• Traffic impact fees to be paid to the Town to be used for Frontage Road
improvements;
• Parking structure that is open to the general public for fee.
In summary, this application is necessary and warranted to:
• Allow the Solaris project to move forward in a financially sustainable way
• Allow the project to maintain the high-end quality finishes and not reduce the
quality to meet budgetary needs
• Recognize the net change in retail is minor in the overall context of the project
• Allow the project to maintain the high levels of public benefit despite the strains
placed on it by the economy.
• Recognize the ineffectiveness of the retail space as currently planned

II. Detailed Project Description
A. Residential and Commercial Floor Areas
There is an increase in the approved gross residential floor area by 1,999 sq. ft.
There is a corresponding reduction in retail by 1,999 sq. ft. The minor
amendment approved in December of 2008, added 686 sq. ft. to the overall
retail area, thus making the net change less significant. There are no changes
to other uses on site. Below is a table indicating the current approval and the
2009 amendment proposal:
Use Current Approvals Proposed 2009 Net Change

Residential 198,859 sq. ft. 200,858 sq. ft. +1,999 sq. ft.
Retail 34,536 sq. ft. 32,537 sq. ft. -1,999 sq. ft.
B. Parking
Below is a table documenting the parking requirements for the proposed Solaris
redevelopment. The proposed development plan includes a total of 304
parking spaces (above the previous 301) to allow more public to park on the
site. Due to this proposal, there is a surplus of parking on the site available to
the public and which can be used to meet any future requirements. These
extra six spaces are considered part of the public benefit of this proposal.

Density is expressed as the number of residential dwelling units per acre of land.
The proposed amendment includes an increase from 77 units to 78 units. The
site is 2.643 acres. The current approval allows for 29.13 units per acre. The
proposed increase to 78 units results in a proposed density of 29.5 dwelling units
per acre.

D. Employee Housing Plan
The original approval of Solaris was prior to the adoption of the current
employee housing regulations. As a result, all previous housing requirements
have been based on "beds" rather than the new requirements of either
"employees generated" or "employee housing area (sq. ft.)". However, due to
the increase in residential floor area and the decrease in retail floor area, a
revised employee housing plan is required to be submitted with this major
amendment application, based on the current requirements. The following
calculations based on Chapters 23 and 24 have been provided for reference:
Commercial Linkage:
Use Increase/Decrease Calculation Employees
Generated
Retail - 1,999 sq. ft. 2.4/1000 sq. ft) *.20 mitigation rate -.96
Inclusionary Requirement:
Use Increase/Decrease Calculation Area (sq. ft.)
Required
Residential 1,999 sq. ft. 10 mitigation rate 199.9 sq. ft.
The conversion between the commercial linkage requirement and the
inclusionary requirement generally equates to 350 sq. ft. per employee.
Therefore, the commercial linkage equates to a reduction of 336 sq. ft. of
employee housing requirement. With the inclusionary requirement of 199.9 sq.
ft., the total housing requirement equals a net reduction in the employee
housing requirement of 136 sq. ft. (or reduction of .39 employees.) The minor
amendment approved on December 24, 2008, increased the employee
housing requirement by .33 of an employee, making the current employee
housing requirement for 22.33 beds. The applicant proposed 1 additional bed
to meet this requirement, while maintaining the .67 employee credit to
accommodate any future changes. As a result of this reduction of .39
employees, the additional .33 requirement is no longer necessary, and the total
requirement now dips below the 22 beds originally required.
In 2007, an amendment was approved (Ordinance 21, Series 2007) to the Solaris
project. There was an overall reduction of parking available to commercial and
parking club users. Parking dropped from 338 spaces to 298 spaces. The Town
Council required an additional 10 employee beds (total of 22 beds) to mitigate
for the loss of "public benefit" in the number of parking spaces. Since this
application results in a surplus of six parking spaces above and beyond the
parking requirements, the 10 beds imposed on the project should be reduced
accordingly. The six surplus spaces represent a 15% change which would
reduce the additional 10 bed requirement to 8.5 beds, or a total requirement of
20.5. However, the applicant is proposing to provide a total of 22 beds as a
public benefit to support this application.

"The purpose of the special development district is to encourage flexibility and
creativity in the development of land in order to promote its most appropriate use; to
improve the design character and quality of the new development with the Town; to
facilitate the adequate and economical provision of streets and utilities; to preserve the
natural and scenic features of open space areas; and to further the overall goals of the
community as stated in the Vail comprehensive plan."
The following design criteria are used by the Town in the evaluation of a Special
Development District. The proposed Solaris redevelopment plan adequately
addresses each of these criteria. Below is a summary of how the project implements
each of these criteria.
A. Compatibility: 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.
Our Analvsis:
There are no changes to the design of the proposed building as a result of
this proposal.
The proposed Solaris redevelopment plan was designed to be compatible
with the mountain environment and the new trends in alpine architecture.
While the site is not located in the area regulated by the Vail Village
Urban Design Guide Plan, most of the recommendations and goals of that
plan are implemented by the proposed development plan. The site is
located on the periphery of the village adjacent to the South Frontage
Road. The Vail Village Master Plan recommends taller buildings be
concentrated along the Frontage Road and step down toward the
village core. The proposed structures follow this guideline. The site is also
being redeveloped in the context of recent approvals made by the Town
on adjacent sites. The Vail Plaza Hotel and the Four Season projects have
both been approved following the same general concept of taller
buildings along the Frontage Road. However, the Crossroads project,
unlike the other two, focuses more of the building bulk and mass along the
Frontage Road in order to maintain a large public plaza (1 /2-acre in area)
along the south side of the site.
The proposed plan provides generous setbacks to adjacent development
located to the west of the site and the buildings are oriented to help
maintain views in the area. The building was also designed to appear as
several building forms. The roof ridges were turned north south to prevent
a long continuous roof ridge running east west across the site which has
8

been fairly common on other redevelopment projects. There are no
major flat roofs proposed on this structure.
The materials are of the highest quality and include Telluride Gold stacked
stone, strip sandstone (laid on side), wood-like siding, dark zinc roof and
siding elements, timber arches and bracing, rolled logs, heavy deck rails,
planter boxes, and proportional glazing. The proposed materials are such
high quality that maintenance is minimally required. The building was
designed to stand the test of time and to respond to the Rocky Mountain
climate and harsh conditions.
B. Relationship: Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible,
efficient and workable relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
Our Analysis:
The East Meadow Drive area is characterized by residential, lodging, and
commercial development. The Vail Village Master Plan recognizes this
area of Town as mixed-use commercial and high density residential. The
proposed redevelopment plan responds to the uses already developed in
the neighborhood and also provides a high quality mix of uses along East
Meadow Drive. The proposed amendment does not change this vibrancy
along East Meadow Drive. The proposed amendment converts a second
floor ara at the very end of the retail promenade. The area is secluded
and will not operate well as a retail area due to the location and
seclusion.
C. Parking and Loading: Compliance with parking and loading requirements
as outlined in Chapter 10 of this Title.
Our Analvsis:
The proposed redevelopment plan meets or exceeds all of the parking
and loading standards found in Chapter 10 of the Zoning Regulations.
Please refer to other sections of this report and the proposed
development plan for details on parking and loading. In fact, a surplus of
6 spaces are being provided above and beyond the requirement for all
uses on the site.
D. Comprehensive Plan: Conformity with applicable elements of the Vail
Comprehensive Plan, Town policies and urban design plans.
Our Analysis:
The proposed Solaris redevelopment plan complies with all relevant
master planning documents and Town policies. The plan also complies
with relevant sections of the Urban Design Guide Plan; however, this plan
is not applicable to this site.

E. Natural and/or Geologic Hazard: Identification and mitigation of natural
and/or geologic hazards that affect the property on which the special
development district is proposed.
Our Analvsis:
There are no natural or geologic hazards existing or mapped by the Town
on the Crossroads site.
F. Design Features: 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.
Our Analysis:
There are no changes to the above-reference design features as a result
of this proposal.
The Solaris site has been developed for more than 30 years and therefore
there are no natural features on the site and little in terms of vegetation.
The proposed project was designed to reflect mountain alpine
architecture, the alpine climate, and quality demanded by the Town. The
project was also developed around the master plan direction and the
community desire to extend a public plaza into the site. The proposed
plan includes a large open plaza (nearly 20% of the area of the entire
site). This 1/2-acre plaza will improve the Town's ability to accommodate
outdoor gatherings and events. The proposed landscape plan introduces
additional trees and vegetation in meaningful locations throughout the
site to improve the aesthetics of the site and the surrounding area.
G. Traffic: A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians
addressing on and off-site traffic circulation.
Our Analvsis:
The proposed amendment has no impact on this criterion.
The Solaris project has been designed to address three major issues within
the Town: availability and adequacy of parking; pedestrian circulation
and gathering; and loading and delivery. A long-standing goal of the
Town is to remove loading and delivery entering the Solaris site through E.
Meadow Drive and require access directly to the South Frontage Road.
The proposed plan includes a new, enclosed loading dock facility that is
accessed directly from the South Frontage Road. The loading facility
includes five loading berths, the maximum required by the Town Code for
a mixed-use facility. The loading dock also includes a trash facility for the
10
Crossroads KcdcN-clopmcnt
llauricllo Planning Group, LLC
4/2l/2009
6-4- 11
project. The loading dock provides access to grade on the west side of
the site to allow for use by merchants on adjacent sites.
All of the parking for the site is accessed from Village Center Road. All of
the parking is located below grade. The control gate for the site is
located deep within the garage to prevent cars from stacking into Village
Center Road. Cars exiting the facility cue within the parking structure, thus
preventing any blocking of traffic on Village Center Road. Additionally,
there is a porte cochere along the South Frontage Road for residential
guests arriving at the site. The porte cochere will provide temporary pick-
up for guests and valet parking. A traffic report is included in the
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for this project and, as agreed
previously in the DIA, a new letter amending the analysis will be provided
as the commercial uses are finalized. This report indicates that all
roadways adjacent to the site have excess capacity upon completion of
this redevelopment project. There is no need for major roadway
improvements due to the traffic generated for the proposed uses on-site.
There is no vehicular access proposed to the East Meadow Drive frontage
of the site.
The pedestrian improvements associated with this site are extensive.
Pedestrian access is provided on all adjacent roadways and between the
VVI project and the Solaris site. The applicant is proposing a significant
public plaza on the site that will allow for pedestrian traffic and public
gatherings.
H. Landscaping: Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in
order to optimize and preserve natural features, recreation, views and
function.
Our Analvsis:
There are no changes to the landscaping as a result of this proposal.
The Solaris project is currently developed with buildings, structured
parking, and surface parking. There is very little existing landscaping on
the property. The site is located within an urban setting which presents
challenges in terms of providing landscape areas and materials. Retail,
plaza areas and gathering places, and pedestrian walks all compete with
landscape improvements. However, the proposed redevelopment plan
for Solaris provides significant landscape materials in strategic locations
which do not interfere with retail store fronts or needed gathering spaces.
The proposed hardscape areas of the site provide an aesthetic quality not
currently existing in the area. The proposed development plan and
landscape plan optimize the site as a gathering space, a recreation
complex, and as a place to sit and view the surrounding urban fabric.

I. Workable Plan: Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a
workable, functional and efficient relationship throughout the
development of the special development district.
Our Analvsis:
There are no changes to the phasing of this project as a result of the
proposed major amendment. The project is proposed to be developed in
one phase.

MEMORANDUM
To: Town Council
From: Stan Zemler
Judy Camp
Kathleen Halloran
Date: April 16, 2009
Subject: 2008 Preliminary Results and 2009 Supplemental Appropriation
Recording of the town's 2008 financial transactions has been completed, with audited financial statements
in the drafting process. The completion of 2008 financials sets the stage for this supplemental
appropriation of 2009 with the identification of capital projects that span more than one year and need to
have funding re-appropriated to the current year. In Tuesday evening's session, you will be asked to
approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 8 making supplemental appropriations and adjustments to the
2009 budget. The following information is provided for your review:
• Second Budget Adjustment / Supplemental Appropriation Request of 2009
• Summary of Revenue, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances - 2008 Actual Compared
with Amended Budget and 2009 including Second Supplemental Appropriation
• Ordinance No. 8
2008 RESULTS
The town ended 2008 in a stronger financial position than expected through a combination of higher
revenue and lower expenditures than budgeted. Specifically, the General Fund, Capital Projects Fund and
the Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) Fund ended the year with surpluses/(shortfalls) of $32 million,
$(12) million and $SS million, respectively. All three funds performed better than anticipated by the
budget. Please see the chart below for an explanation of how the surpluses and/or variance to budget
were generated:
2008 Results General Fund Ca ital Fund RETT Fund
Revenue 33,809,761 11,933,349 9,789,678
Expenditures 30,641,592 13,105,608 4,270,685
Net Increase/(Decrease) to Fund Balance: 3,168,169 (1,172,259) 5,518,993
Budgeted Increase/(Decrease) to Fund Balance: 1,728,694 (7,911,857) (4,839,481)
Variance to Bud et: 1,439,475 6,739,598 10,358,474
Variance due to:
Revenue collections beyond budget 884,840 656,419 1,960,614

Projects delayed to 2010 or beyond 0 0 3,827,137
Total Variance to Budget: 1,439,475 6,739,598 10,358,474
Higher revenue included a record year for sales tax, ski lift tax, real estate transfer tax, and parking
revenue. 2008 sales tax collections of $19.6 million exceeded the amended budget by $231,366 or 1.19%
and exceeded 2007 by $718,228 or 3.8%. The unbudgeted collections of $231,366 were all recorded into
the Capital Projects Fund. Ski lift tax provided $33 million of revenue, up 7.8% from 2007. Real Estate
Transfer Tax collections of $9.1 million were ahead of 2007 by $2.6 million, or 39%. Parking revenue of
$4.7 million was up 4.2% from 2007.
4/2l/2009
7-2-1
Expenditures, meanwhile, were generally favorable to budget, with General Fund expenditures of $30.6
million below budget by $554,635 or 1.8%. The Capital Projects Fund expenditures came in below
budget by $61 million, of which $5.6 million relates to ongoing projects, and $522,303, or 2.7% of
expense savings. The RETT Fund expenditures came in below budget by $8.4 million, of which $3.6
million relate to ongoing projects, $3.8 million of delays to projects (to future years) and $936,160, or
7.4% of expense savings.
2009 SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION
The purpose of this supplemental is to re-appropriate funds for 2009 capital projects that were started in
2008 and are continuing into this year, or projects that did not begin as planned in 2008. Staff is currently
working on further adjustments to both revenue and expense projections, which will be presented to
Council in June.
Changes to budgeted expenditures are identified by color in two categories: Items marked in blue
identify projects for re-appropriation due to surplus funds from 2008, either because the project was
not completed, or had not been started as yet. Items marked in orange identify new projects, or
increases to current projects. Details on the supplemental requests or adjustments are summarized by
fund below.
General Fund
Revenue will be adjusted for $50,000 in sponsorship from Volvo for uniform coats this winter. The coats
were purchased in 2008, and the revenue was received in 2009. The expenditure for the coats was
budgeted in 2009, so this item will be reduced because payment was already made in 2008.
Other revenue adjustments include a reimbursement by Vail Resorts of approximately $15K for future
legal or consultant work on EverVail and $5,234 in grant money from the Northwest Council of
Governments (NWCOG) to support the "Pay as you Throw" trash program. Both items are directly offset
by the same amount of expenditure.
General Fund expenditures are proposed to increase a total of $22,734. This includes $22K previously-
approved by Council to determine the impact if Vail Valley Medical Center re-located outside of Vail.
Staff is requesting $25K to cover the town's participation in a pooled lobbyist effort with other
municipalities across the state. Although the fee paid to the lobbyist has increased based on the town's
participating share, our participation has resulted in funding for bus purchases and the federal grant for a
new transit center.
Capital Proiects Fund
Revenue adjustments include the contribution toward underground utility projects from the Holy Cross
Enhancement Fund ($156K), and reimbursement for a transportation study from both the Colorado
Department of Transportation (CDO'1) ($24K) and Vail Resorts ($lOK). All three reimbursements are
directly offset by expenditures requested for those projects.
Staff is requesting to supplement 2009 expenditures by a total of $6.0 million. Of this, $5.6 million
represent projects budgeted in 2008 but not yet completed. Expenditures re-appropriated are detailed in
the attached schedule (pages 4-6), and include projects already under contract. New projects or increases
requested include the replacement of an obsolete parking meter system ($145K), an additional $48K for
the historical scanning of town documents, a fire impact study of $15K, a traffic impact study ($30K) and
continued legal and consulting fees regarding the redevelopment of Timber Ridge ($100K).

4/2l/2009
7-2-2
Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) Fund
Revenue adjustments include $149,458 in federal grant money for the Timber Ridge / Buffehr Creek path.
These funds will offset a portion of the cost of that project ($700K).
Staff is requesting to supplement 2009 expenditures by a total of $4.1 million. Of this, $3.6 million
represent projects budgeted in 2008 but not yet completed. Expenditures re-appropriated are detailed in
the attached schedule (pages 7-8), and include projects already under contract. Increases are requested for
the Greenhouse project (an additional $150K based on revised cost estimates), Timber Ridge/Buffehr
Creek path ($46K) and Seibert Circle ($100K). $125K was originally budgeted in the Seibert project to
cover the relocation of the Morales artwork. This has been transferred to Public Art for implementation.
In addition, the Seibert Circle project is requesting $100K along with the re-appropriation of $112K to
cover final bills from the project.
Dispatch Services Fund
The Dispatch Services department facilitated the re-banding of radios for county-wide emergency
responders. The expenditure is directly offset by reimbursement from the various agencies.
Debt Service Fund
Both principal and interest expense budgets need to be adjusted for the refunding of the 1998A Bonds
which occurred in December, 2008.

SERIES OF 2009
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 1, ADMINISTRATION, VAIL TOWN CODE BY THE
ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION, "RESTITUTION ORDERS" TO CHAPTER 4, GENERAL
PENALTY; AND SETTING FORTH DETAILS IN REGARD THERETO.
WHEREAS, the Town of Vail, in the County of Eagle and State of Colorado (the
"Town"), is a home rule municipal corporation duly organized and existing under laws of the
State of Colorado and the Town Charter (the "Charter"); and
WHEREAS, the members of the Town Council of the Town (the "Council") have
been duly elected and qualified; and
WHEREAS, the Vail Municipal Court requires the ability to impose restitution in
criminal actions where a defendant has been adjudged guilty for violating an ordinance of the
Town for any actual damage or loss caused by the offense or infraction for which the
conviction orjudgment of liability was had; and
WHEREAS, the Council declares that the victims of a crime are entitled to be
compensated for their losses and hereby finds that it is in the best interest of the citizens of
the Town to revise the Town Code by amending Title 1 with the addition of a new subsection,

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN
OF VAIL, COLORADO, THAT:
Section 1. Section 1-4-1 of the Municipal Code of the Town of Vail is hereby amended with
the addition subsection C. "Restitution Orders" to read as follows:
1-4-1: GENERAL PENALTY:
C. Restitution Orders:
(a) The Municipal Court has the ability to order restitution in cases where a victim
suffers actual losses or can show future costs for treatment. Any order for restitution
entered pursuant to this Section shall be a final civil judgment in favor of the Town
and any victim. Notwithstanding any other civil or criminal statute or rule, any such
judgment shall remain in force until the restitution is paid in full. The entry of an order
for restitution under this Section creates a lien by operation of law against the
defendant's personal property and any interest that the defendant may have in any
personal property. Any order of restitution imposed shall be considered a debt for
"willful and malicious" injury for purposes of exceptions to discharge in bankruptcy as
provided in 11 U.S.C. § 523.
(b) Any order of restitution may be increased or decreased upon a showing of good
cause. If more than one (1) defendant owes restitution to the same victim for the
same pecuniary loss, the orders for restitution shall be joint and several obligations of
the defendants.
Ordinance No. 9, Series of 2009
4/2l/2009
8-1-1
(c) Victims of traffic accidents cannot request restitution if the vehicle they drove,
regardless of ownership, did not have insurance coverage. Nothing in this
Subsection shall prohibit a passenger in the vehicle from being awarded restitution if
the driver or passenger was not covered by his or her own medical payments
coverage policy.
(d) Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to limit or abrogate the rights and
immunities set forth in the "Colorado Governmental Immunity Act," Article 10 of Title
24, C.R.S.
Section 2. If any part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance
is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not effect the validity of the remaining
portions of this ordinance; and the Town Council hereby declares it would have passed this
ordinance, and each part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase thereof,
regardless of the fact that any one or more parts, sections, subsections, sentences, clauses
or phrases be declared invalid.
Section 3. The amendment of any provision of the Town Code as provided in this
ordinance shall not affect any right which has accrued, any duty imposed, any violation that
occurred prior to the effective date hereof, any prosecution commenced, nor any other action
or proceeding as commenced under or by virtue of the provision amended. The amendment
of any provision hereby shall not revive any provision or any ordinance previously repealed
or superseded unless expressly stated herein.
Section 4. All bylaws, orders, resolutions and ordinances, or parts thereof, inconsistent
herewith are repealed to the extent only of such inconsistency. This repealer shall not be
construed to revise any bylaw, order, resolution or ordinance, or part thereof, theretofore
repealed.

MEETING DATE: April 21, 2009
ITEM/TOPIC: Review of the proposed South Frontage Road Relocation Application (Ever
Vail).
PRESENTER(S): Greg Hall, Tom Kassmel
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Endorse, Endorse with Modifications or Reject the
proposed preliminary plans and design drawings for the proposed relocation of the South
Frontage Road., adjacent to the proposed Ever Vail development in anticipation of submitting
an application to the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) for review.
BACKGROUND: Vail Resorts Development Company (VRDC) is proposing to realign the
South Frontage Road. adjacent and parallel to I-70 to enable the development of Ever Vail. As
this road is owned and operated by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) via CDOT,
the relocation must be approved by CDOT/FHWA. The Town has reviewed the preliminary
road relocation plans and believes VRDC is at a point in which CDOT comments are critical.
According to adopted CDOT application policies and procedures, the relocation application
must be submitted by the Town of Vail as the local government agency. All costs associated
with the application and its review shall be reimbursed to the Town of Vail or paid directly by
VRDC.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Endorse the South Frontage Road relocation application
submittal with the understanding that this endorsement is not an approval of a development
plan to construct the road and is only an acknowledgment of preliminary acceptance of the
design drawings. An endorsement of the application will allow town staff to submit the
preliminary design drawings of the proposed South Frontage Rd., adjacent to the proposed
Ever Vail development, to the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT).

Vail Resorts Development Company (VRDC) has proposed to realign the South
Frontage Rd. adjacent and parallel to I-70 to enable the development of Ever Vail.
As this road is owned and operated by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)
via the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), the realignment must be
approved by CDOT/FHWA. The Town has reviewed the preliminary road relocation
plans and believes VRDC is at a point in which CDOT and FHWA comments are
critical.
As the local government agency, the application must be made by Vail. All costs
associated with the application and review will be reimbursed to the Town or paid
directly by VRDC.
Staff is recommending that the Town Council endorse the South Frontage Rd.
relocation application submittal with the understanding that this endorsement is not
an approval of the road and is only an acknowledgment of preliminary acceptance of
the design as we currently understand it, in order to facilitate a preliminary review by
CDOT and FHWA. And direct staff to work with VRDC to submit the preliminary
design drawings for the realignment of the South Frontage Rd., adjacent to the
proposed Ever Vail development, to the CDOT and FHWA.
A vicinity map of the development site and surrounding area has been attached for
reference. (Attachment A). A copy of the proposed preliminary plan (Attachment B),
the proposed relocated South Frontage Road Option 15 with Simba Run (Attachment
C), and a set of cross-sections (Attachment D) are attached for reference.
II. BACKGROUND
On February 6, 2007, the Vail Town Council adopted Resolution No. 4, Series of
2007, which implemented the changes to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan
regarding West Lionshead and the area now called Ever Vail.
On January 26, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission held a work
session at which a revised Frontage Road option was presented to both staff and the
Commission which had not been previously shown. The general consensus was that
1
4/2l/2009
9-1-1
the Frontage Road was moving in the direction of addressing the concerns of the
Commission.
On February 17, 2009, the Town Council directed staff and the applicant to proceed
forward with the design of the South Frontage Road which contained certain
improvements within a 20-foot Town of vail right-of-way.
On February 18, 2009, the Design Review Board conceptually reviewed the
proposed South Frontage Road and found the concepts presented for the proposed
retaining wall and landscaping associated with the relocated South Frontage Road to
be aesthetically acceptable with further review at a latter date.
On March 9, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission tabled this
application due to concerns expressed by the applicant with regard to the condition
recommended by staff with regard to the future ability to shore under what was being
proposed as a 20-foot Town of Vail right-of-way.
On March 23, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved with
conditions the limited element preliminary plan for the Ever Vail Subdivision.
III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works Department recommends that Town Council endorse the South
Frontage Rd. relocation application submittal to CDOT and FHWA, and that the
Town Council directs staff to work with Vail Resorts Development Company to
submit the preliminary design drawings for the realignment of the South Frontage
Rd., adjacent to the proposed Ever Vail development, to CDOT and FHWA as
appropriate.
Should the Town Council choose to endorse the configuration and design of the
relocated South Frontage Road, the Public Works Department recommends the
Council makes the following motion:
"The Town Council endorses the South Frontage Rd. relocation application
submittal to the Co/orado Department of Transportation (CD07) and the
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) with the understanding that this
endorsement is not an approval of the road and is only an acknowledgment
of preliminary acceptance of the design as we currently understand it, in
order to facilitate a preliminary review by CDOT and FHWA. And the Town
Council directs staff to work with Vail Resorts Development Company
(VRDC) to submit the preliminary design drawings for the realignment of the
South Frontage Rd., adjacent to the proposed Ever Vail development, to
CDOT and FHWA as appropriate."
Should the Town Council choose to endorse the configuration and design of the
relocated South Frontage Road, the Public Works Department recommends the
Council apply the following conditions:
2
4/2l/2009
9-1-2
1. The design submitted is preliminary in nature and to this point there is still
significant further design and review which may modify the overall final design of
the roadway. This includes the proposed development uses, access points and
traffic operations of the development accesses, drainage design, structural
design, as well as review by the Vail Town Council, Town of Vail Design Review
Board, Planning and Environmental Commission, Town Staff, Colorado
Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration and their
consultants. There will also be a review for environmental clearances by outside
agencies and subsequent referral agencies such as the Corps of Engineers and
Division of Wildlife. Furthermore, the two roundabouts will be reviewed by a third
party roundabout expert and optimized for traffic operations. This may cause
adjustments in the geometrics of the roundabout designs. The applicant shall
return before the appropriate Town reviewing authority(s) for review and approval
of any changes required by any of the reviewing parties listed above that affect
the elements approved within this request for the preliminary plan.
