ITEM/TOPIC: Vail Golf and Nordic Center Clubhouse Project regarding the 18th hole. (45 min) PRESENTER(S): Stan Zemler, Pedro Campos Zehren and Associates, Kevin Atkinson Phelps-Atkinson Golf Design, Vail Recreation District ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: The Town Council is being asked to provide direction to the design team on the Golf and Nordic Clubhouse programming and revised design, as well a decision to include moving the 7/17/2012 18th green as part of the project. BACKGROUND: The council based on the July 3, meeting requested some additional concerns be addressed in design alternatives. A revised design has been prepared and reviewed by the recreation subcommittee. It is the recommendation of the committee that the new design is a better solution than those previously reviewed and should be pursued. The recreation subcommittee with regard to the modifications to the driving range operations supported the modifications to the net verses the use of low flight balls. If the final design of the relocated 18th hole results in a par 4, then the modification of the 13th hole as recommended in the master plan should be pursued sooner than later. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommendation is as follows: Proceed with the building design as previously presented to the town council Provide parking as presented in the revised design on July 3, 2012. Relocate the 18th hole as per concept F and with final design reviewed by the Vail Recreation District and Design Review Board Amend the budget as necessary to address the recommended changes Direct staff to withdraw the rezoning application at this time, to be modified for future zoning applications. 6. ITEM/TOPIC: Vail Shuttle and Courtesy Car Alternatives (30 min) PRESENTER(S): Tom Kassmel ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Review the Alternatives presented and provide feedback and direction to Staff. BACKGROUND: The Town of Vail has seen a significant increase in the volume and frequency of shuttles and hotel courtesy vehicles in the past few years as a result of the successful Vail Billion Dollar Redevelopment. Many convenient areas that are within close proximity to Vail Mountain and to both the Lionshead and Vail Villages are now being overused for the drop-off and pick-up of guests. Currently the Town does not have any policies or regulation specific to these services. The increase of use of these services has become problematic for critical portal areas to the Mountain and the Villages and other congested neighborhood areas, causing safety issues and congestion. On March 6th Council directed staff to develop alternatives for solving these issues. Three alternatives will be presented to Coucil for discussion and input. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends reviewing the three Alternates, receiving public input, and providing staff with further direction. Based on the current input provided, staff is recommending Alternate I, implementing a trial basis schedule for shuttles, and including the 7/17/2012 ability for Large SUV’s to drop off on the top deck of the Lionshead Parking Structure. 7.

The 50th celebration will not only pay tribute to Vail’s founders but will also reach out to the five decades of skiers, employees, residents and others who are forever connected to this special place.

SUMMARY The 2013 budget timetable (attachment A) is included for your review. This timetable provides for approval of the 2013 budget upon second reading of the budget ordinance on November 6, 2012. II. DISCUSSION In addition to the Vail Town Charter (attachment B) which sets forth certain requirements for the budget, staff will use the following philosophy during the 2013 budget process: • Develop a sustainable budget that operates within annual revenues • The town will develop a five-year financial projection for all major funds annually, including the Heavy Equipment Fund, Dispatch Services Fund, General Fund, Capital Projects Fund and the Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund. The five-year strategic capital plan will include the identification and prioritization of capital needs that are not funded within current projections. • Revenues will be projected conservatively using analytical processes. Revenue collections will be reviewed monthly or quarterly, depending on the revenue source, to determine variations from the budget. • Fund balances shall be adequate to cover short-term fluctuations in revenues, emergencies and planned future expenditures. It is recommended the General Fund balance be at least 25% of the budgeted revenues. The 2012 amended budget projects a 76% fund balance in the General Fund, and staff continues to recommend strong reserve levels for 2013 and beyond. • On May 4, 2010 Council agreed that it was not necessary to carry a fund balance in the Capital Projects Fund or Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) Fund. These funds however, are projected to have fund balances of $11.3M and $9.4M, respectively by the end of 2012. The budget will continue to reflect the town’s vision to be the premier mountain resort community and will support areas of strategic focus identified by Council including Improvement 3 - 1 - 1 7/17/2012 Town of Vail Page 2 of Economic Vitality, Grow a Balanced Community, Improve the Quality of the Experience and Develop Future Leadership.

Vail Town Council Chambers The regular meeting of the Vail Town Council was called to order at approximately 6:20 P.M. by Mayor Andy Daly. Members present: Andy Daly, Mayor Kerry Donovan Kevin Foley Ludwig Kurz Greg Moffet Margaret Rogers Susie Tjossem Staff members: Stan Zemler, Town Manager Matt Mire, Town Attorney Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager _________________________________________________________________ The first item on the agenda was Citizen's Participation. Tracy Anderson said she was the new Executive Director of the Eagle Valley Alliance for Sustainability. She thanked the Council for being a progressive municipality and taking sustainable initiatives such as composting, recycling and sustainable construction forward within Vail. The second item on the agenda was the Consent Agenda. The consent agenda consisted of the approval of the May 1 and May 15 meeting minutes. Foley requested these be voted on individually as he was absent for the May 15 meeting. Moffet made a motion to approve the May 1 meeting consent agenda and the motion was seconded by Foley. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 7-0. Moffet made a motion to approve the May 15 meeting minutes and Donovan seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 6-0-1, with Foley abstaining as he was absent. The third item on the agenda was the Town Manager Report. Kelli McDonald introduced Stephen Long with Vail Mountain Marketing. Long made a presentation and did a demonstration on the new Vail Bike & Hike Application (App) with Council and the public. He said the app will be distributed to Android and Apple stores. He said the number one driver in getting folks to Vail in the summer was hiking. He reviewed the background and concept for the app. The app focuses on being the singular app where folks find their hiking and biking needs; such as hiking and biking trails in the Vail area, directions on how to get there, the exits off the highway to the trails and FAQ’s. The app is also updatable, color coded, searchable by difficulty levels of the trails, what to bring and levels of difficulty of each of the trails. Donovan asked if the topographical map was “zoom-able”. Long said it is not currently zoom-able. He said Tom 3 - 2 - 1 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 2 Griffin is the developer of the app and Vail Mountain Marketing has asked him to make the topographical maps “zoom-able”. Adam Sutner, from Vail Mountain Marketing, said Vail Resorts will be leveraging the hiking and biking app on Vail.com. He said hiking was by far the single largest driver of why people come to Vail in the summer. He said there are many different types of hiking trails and levels of difficulty. He said this app is a decent first step and that additional hiking trails on Vail Mountain are anticipated to be added in the future. Rogers said the app needs to distinguish and state this app is for mountain bike trails and not road bike trails. She would like to see road bike trails added in future app upgrades. Long said they will work on adding those as well. Foley asked if the seasonal closures of trails are listed in the app. Long said yes they do have the closures in the app. He said the current version of the app is available on Apple now, but they are working on updating another version. They are still working with the Android market to get this app out to the public. Tjossem asked if the directions to the hiking and biking trailheads could be added to the town’s free bus system. Zemler said he would look into adding it to the bus system. The fourth item on the agenda was a presentation of the 2011 audited financial statements. Michael Jenkins, C.A., C.P.A, of McMahan and Associates presented results of the 2011 Town of Vail audit. The town received a "clean" opinion, which means the auditors believe the financial statements are presented fairly in all material respects. The financial statements include the town and its affiliated units: Vail Local Marketing District, Vail Reinvestment Authority and Timber Ridge Affordable Housing Corporation. The town's government-wide net assets as of December 31, 2011, totaled $177.9 million, of which $55.1 million was unrestricted, i.e., available for any governmental purpose. For the full year, government-wide revenue exceeded expenses by $8.3 million. Jenkins pointed out all debt which is the responsibility of the town will be paid off by the end of 2012. At that time, only Vail Reinvestment Authority and Timber Ridge Affordable Housing Corporation bonds, both of which are funded from dedicated sources, will be outstanding. A good benchmark of financial strength cited by Jenkins is governmental fund balances as a percent of expenditures. Across all Town of Vail funds, this measurement is 140%, which implies the town could hypothetically continue at existing spending levels for more than a year even without any revenue. In response to questions from Mayor Andy Daly, Jenkins confirmed the audit team encountered no differences in dealing with management in completing the audit; there were no known or likely misstatements material in nature; and no disagreements with management that could be significant to the financial statement or auditor's report. In conclusion, Jenkins congratulated the town and the finance team on its conservative, consistent practices, conservative budgeting and sound systems and controls, all of which contribute to the town's strong financial position. 3 - 2 - 2 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 3 Daly and the Council thanked Camp, Halloran and other town staff for the terrific audit. The fifth item on the agenda was a discussion on the results of the 2012 Town of Vail Community Survey. Suzanne Silverthorn introduced Chris Cares with RRC Associates, whose firm conducted the survey. Silverthorn said during the spring of 2012 the Town of Vail fielded a community survey similar to efforts conducted in the past right before the end of ski season and before the 2012 spring construction season. It consisted of questionnaires completed by full- and part-time residents, property owners and business owners to evaluate opinions on a variety of issues. Using survey techniques that permitted comparisons to past research, the town employed a combination of personalized invitations via postcard mailings as well as open invitations to take the survey online. Respondents were also given a third option to request a mail-back version. The purpose of the survey was to evaluate respondents’ level of satisfaction with respect to a full range of services and to gather opinions on selected issues and areas of focus. Similar questions had been posed to Vail part-time and year-round residents on a periodic basis since 1987. The 2012 survey was designed to permit comparisons to past results, as well as to provide new insights on a variety of topics of current interest. Cares reviewed the power point and stated the survey is presented in multiple ways to readily access the data. The full report will be available online. He described the methodology, which was comparable to the 2010 survey process. The postcard invitation had approximately 415 responders and the open link had an additional 265 responders. He reviewed various demographic profiles within the survey, the questions asked and results, the format of the survey, comments received and overall outcome. Cares said the overall response was positive and the respondents felt the town was heading in the right direction. Daly stated he wanted to hear about the areas that need improvement as well as the positive results. Cares said overall, there were more positive than negative comments, but all the comments were in the packet given to Council for this meeting. Donovan asked about the demographics and open link data. Cares said the open link survey respondents were answered by full time residents versus second homeowners. Donovan requested a more detailed report on the full time residents versus registered voters. Cares stated his company will get more detailed information and respond to her request. The sixth item on the agenda was Resolution No. 20, Series of 2012, a Resolution Authorizing the Town Manager to Sign a Wireless Communications and License Agreement Between the Town of Vail and NewPath Networks, LLC; and setting forth details in regard thereto. Matt Mire said the Council had seen the agreement a couple of times before in a work session and a public meeting. He said Sections 5J and 5K were new additions to the agreement. These were specifically added to address concerns about W i-Fi standards, response times, repair and monitoring. Ron Braden, IT Director, introduced Gannon Sutter, Crown Castle Director of Sales and said he will present a “30,000 feet” overview of the agreement and process. 3 - 2 - 3 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 4 Sutter said thanked the Council for the opportunity to work with the town and forging a wireless infrastructure system to make sure Vail is keeping up with having a world class Wi-Fi service. He said the solution is to have a shared comprehensive wireless system. The system will support capacity and coverage. He also stated Steve Collin and Charlie Weaver from Aspen Wireless were in the audience and are strategic partners for technical and program management. Also in the audience was Mark Chamura who manages the relationships with the wireless carriers like Sprint, ATT, Verizon and Cricket. Sutter said Crown Castle is a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange, employs 1,200 employees, has $2 billion in annual revenue, is the largest shared wireless infrastructure company in the United States with 24,000 towers, 10,000 distributed antenna systems and their only business is operating the shared wireless infrastructure and maximizing the amount of carriers that participate on their system. He reviewed various solutions, including outdoor distributed antenna system, interior antenna system, towers, rooftops, fiber as well as Wi-Fi off load. He reviewed the different types of possible scenarios and solutions. Crown Castle has carrier-grade monitoring systems and they handle every aspect of the systems and are a one-stop shop. Crown Castle pays for all the costs and charges the carriers to rent and ride their system. They negotiate directly with the carriers. He said the ten-year contract is pretty standard in the business. He said the town will review and approve all tower and system locations. He explained the difference between a distributed antenna systems versus a tower system. The system the town will have will improve the capacity and coverage within the town. The cells will be closer to the users and be smaller. Tjossem said the community survey had a section on the cell phone service that is totally inadequate in different sections in town and the response said the service was terrible. She asked how the system will address those areas and issues. Sutter said their company will work directly with staff and do a detailed analysis of each location and test locations to help map out the design for each area that needs to be addressed. They will maximize where the cells go and mainly have the cells on town property versus private property. Donovan asked about the different carriers, agreements and how will they work with the carriers. Sutter said they will work with all the carriers to design the system to meet the needs of the various carriers such as AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, etc. They need to meet their design tolerances as well. Tjossem said there is no guarantee that all carriers will sign with them. Sutter said that is correct. Donovan said they should look to meeting with staff to figure out the management of the data and getting the high peak times and areas for winter and during special events. Sutter said they are gearing up to provide service that meets the needs of the 2015 Championships and they are looking at designing the system for the greatest demand of service. Daly was concerned about the renewal on the contract and the five year options. 3 - 2 - 4 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 5 Mire said the telecom attorney has looked at this agreement and is satisfied with the agreement. Daly said this is an automatic renewal after ten years and wants a paragraph included to allow for the town to not renew if they don’t like the service. Mire said the renewal term needs at least two service provider carriers signed on to continue the contract. Sutter said they would need at least two carriers using 51% of the system to continue. Mire said in the ninth year if the equipment is outdated, the service carriers wouldn’t renew and they couldn’t exercise their renewal option. Stephen Collin, with Aspen Wireless, said the system needs to be a good enough quality to attract long term carrier commitments. Sutter said it is in the best interest of all parties to keep the equipment and service at peak levels. Daly asked who is NewPath versus Crown Castle. Sutter said NewPath is a subsidiary of Crown Castle. NewPath is their Colorado company which will be the service provider for Vail. Braden stated the town has other agreements that are ten to twenty year agreements. Mire said 25 years is standard in this industry. Rogers said she wanted Council to be ultra diligent in pursuing and getting the best services for the town due to problems in the past with the performance of Wi-Fi services and the quality of cable television services. She likes that the agreement will be a role model for services to other towns. Rogers made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20, Series of 2012, and the motion was seconded by Kurz and Moffet. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. The seventh item on the agenda was the appointment of new members to the Commission on Special Events (CSE), Vail Local Housing Authority (VLHA) and Vail Local Licensing Authority (VLLA) boards. Foley stated that all applicants except one were interviewed at the earlier work session in the day. Staff requested the Council appoint one member to the CSE, one member to the VLHA and two members to the VLLA at the evening meeting. Kurz made a motion to appoint William “Barry” Davis to the CSE and the motion was seconded by Foley. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. Kurz made a motion to appoint Scott Ashburn to the VLHA and the motion was seconded by Foley. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. Kurz made a motion to appoint Michael Hannigan and Josh Carbo to the VLLA and the motion was seconded by Donovan. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. The eighth item on the agenda was a request to continue the Ever Vail major subdivision and Ordinance Nos. 7, 8 and 9, Series of 2011 to the July 17, 2012, public hearing. 3 - 2 - 5 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 6 Moffet made a motion to continue the Ever Vail major subdivision and Ordinance Nos. 7, 8 and 9, Series of 2011 to the July 17, 2012, public hearing and the motion was seconded by Kurz. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. The ninth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 7, Series of 2012, an ordinance repealing and reenacting the approved development plan for Phase IV of Special Development District No. 6, Vail Village Inn, pursuant to Article 12-9A-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the conversion of one existing fractional fee club unit to one dwelling unit, located at 16 Vail Road (The Sebastian) / a portion of lots M, N, and O, Block 5D, Vail Village Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. Bill Gibson stated the applicant wished to have this item tabled to the next public hearing on June 19, 2012. Moffet made a motion to table first reading of Ordinance No. 7, Series of 2012, to the June 19th meeting. The motion was seconded by Donovan. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 7-0. The tenth item on the agenda was first Reading of Ordinance No. 8, Series of 2012, an ordinance amending the Official Zoning Map to rezone the Vail Golf Course Clubhouse (VGCC) Parcel from the Outdoor Recreation District to the General Use District, located at 1778 Sunburst Drive/Vail Golf Course Clubhouse Parcel, and setting forth details in regard thereto. Bill Gibson, Planner said this is first reading of the ordinance and there are two pieces to the project. The Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) approved the subdivision at their May 14 meeting contingent upon Council’s approval of the proposed rezoning. If the Council does not approve the rezoning of the VGCC, the plat will become null and void. The second part of this project is a proposed rezoning of the VGCC. VGCC is part of a 57 acre unplatted parcel and constitutes a majority of the golf course itself. In the early 1970’s it was zoned agricultural and then in 1994 that was changed to Outdoor Recreation zone district. In 1995 the Outdoor Recreation District was applied to the VGCC. The parking lot is located on a separate lot and in a separate General Use District zone district. Currently, the VGCC is located in the Outdoor Recreation District and the parking lot is located in the General Use District. The proposed ordinance is intended to facilitate renovations to the Vail Golf Course in response to the November 8, 2011, election. In November 2011, the Vail electorate approved ballot question #1 which re-allocated conference center funds, in part, for the “Expansion and improvement of the clubhouse at the Vail Golf Course and Nordic Center, including multi-use community space.” On May 14, 2012, the Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) approved, with conditions, a final plat establishing the VGCC Parcel. This final plat established the golf course clubhouse as a separate development site from the remainder of the unplatted golf course parcel. At that same hearing, the PEC forwarded a recommendation of approval for the proposed rezoning of the VGCC Parcel from the Outdoor Recreation District to the General Use District by a vote of 4-3-0 (Cartin, Pratt and Rediker opposed). 3 - 2 - 6 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 7 Gibson said the VGCC redevelopment project is going through the design review process due to last Novembers’ election. The town wants the VGCC and the parking lot to be in one zone district instead of two. The change to the General Use District allows for more flexibility in the project. He said the VGCC is considered a conditional use in the General Use District zoning. The renovations to the golf course would need to have PEC and Design Review Board (DRB) review. The table in the memo highlights the differences in each of the districts. Tom Braun, with Braun and Associates, said he represents the Town in this matter. He presented an overview of the project with Council. He said the reason to change the zoning is to place the parking lot and the VGCC into one zone district instead of two districts. Staff chose the General Use District as it made more sense because of quasi public government use. Most other town properties like the Ford Amphitheater and Donovan Park are zoned General Use. The General Use would allow for uniformity and more flexibility in height of 32 feet versus 24 feet allowed in Outdoor Recreation District. Daly asked why Pratt, Cartin and Rediker from PEC were opposed. Appears they were opposed due to not having a completed development plan and they were concerned about how this affected adjacent property owners. Gibson stated the town doesn’t require a development plan at this stage of the process. Debra Webster, an adjacent property owner, said she has lived in that area since 1992. She has her home on the market and she is concerned this will lower the property values. Her home faces the 18th fairway and green. She said they had the expectation that this area would always be green. She said the new event center would be replacing their golf course view with a parking lot instead of green. She is concerned about property values being affected. She said she had heard they were also moving the 18th fairway. She stated she and other neighbors are concerned and they have met with Mike Ortiz from the Vail Recreation District last summer. Ortiz was forthright in addressing all their concerns. And they also met with representatives from Zehren and Associates. There were suggestions made to add more landscaping and make it denser around the area. She is also concerned about noise, parking, traffic and other impacts from events at the event center to the surrounding neighborhood. She wants Council to carefully consider the size and types of events that could be in the event center and how that impacts the neighborhood. Jim Lamont, representing the Vail Village Homeowners Association, said he thinks staff has changed the rules of engagement. He said Council has the right, under consideration, during a rezoning to hold the town to a higher degree for a rezoning. He requested the PEC and Council get a development plan prior to approving the rezoning. He said basic issues like transportation, landscaping, parking and such be addressed prior to rezoning. He said with town projects, a level of detail needs to be held to a higher standard than a private developer. He urged Council to require a development plan so the neighbors could review before Council signs off on the ordinance on second reading. Moffet made a motion to approve first reading of Ordinance No.8, Series of 2012, subject to the findings in the staff memorandum dated June 5, 2012, and the motion was seconded by Kurz. Daly stated based on the work session meeting, the definition of what will be allowed hasn’t been completely defined. Daly said he is voting against this until more detail is provided. Foley 3 - 2 - 7 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 5, 2012 Page 8 and Donovan said they are supporting the first reading of this ordnance but want to see more detailed documentation. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 6-1, Daly opposed. The eleventh item on the agenda was adjournment. As there was no further business, Moffet made a motion to adjourn and the motion was seconded by Foley. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 7-0. The meeting adjourned at 8:30 p.m. Respectfully Submitted, __________________________________ Andrew P. Daly, Mayor Attest: ________________________________ Lorelei Donaldson, Town Clerk 3 - 2 - 8 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 1 Vail Town Council Meeting Minutes Tuesday, June 19, 2012 6:00 P.M. Vail Town Council Chambers The regular meeting of the Vail Town Council was called to order at approximately 6:00 P.M. by Mayor Andy Daly. Members present: Andy Daly, Mayor Kerry Donovan Kevin Foley Ludwig Kurz Greg Moffet Margaret Rogers Susie Tjossem Staff members: Stan Zemler, Town Manager Matt Mire, Town Attorney Pam Brandmeyer, Assistant Town Manager _________________________________________________________________ The first item on the agenda was Citizen's Participation. Rick Sackbauer stated he lives in unincorporated Eagle County in West Vail. He urged the Council to bring back the Exchange Student Program in Vail with Vail’s Sister City, Mt. Buller. He said there is immense value to having international travel available for our youth. He gave the town an Australian watercolor and asked that the Council consider providing a student exchange program for the 2015 Championships. Stephen Connolly noted many naysayers have come out of the woodwork. He said last week a number of people went to the Vail Recreation District (VRD) meeting. There was a lot of citizen input but no comment from VRD was offered. Regarding the 18th Green and Vail Clubhouse renovation project, he said Ken Wilson, VRD board member and Mike Ortiz, VRD Director indicated the building at the Vail Golf Course Clubhouse was a town project, not a VRD project and they are the tenant. Connolly stated Debbie Webster said at a PEC meeting these changes to the 18th green would affect property values and the PEC board’s response was that they don’t consider property values when reviewing projects. He said no one attended the public meetings at VRD when they were discussing this building. He said there is a communication breakdown. He said Council would best serve the community by having a “time out” on this project. He referenced the diagram on the VRD website saying if the community would have seen the diagram earlier, they would have responded sooner. He said many communication notifications are not done in a timely manner and there needs to be a longer period of discussion prior to any decision making. Dale Bugby, a resident and business owner, said he had sent several emails to Council in the past couple of weeks. He hopes Council is listening. He asked if there was a planning process for the golf course. Daly said Council has delayed the meeting to discuss the golf course project for two weeks to allow for homeowners and golfers to provide feedback. Council asked staff to come up with alternatives to the parking and the 18th green issues. 3 - 3 - 1 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 2 Jim Lamont, representing the Vail Homeowners Association (VHOA), stated he has provided a photograph with the 18th green and the homes surrounding this project in it. He said the homeowner he is representing and the VHOA are not happy. He wants the neighborhood polled to see if they want this to be a different open space. He wants the approval processes reviewed as something has gone awry. The second item on the agenda was the Consent Agenda. On the consent agenda was the approval of an easement for the Booth Creek Trailhead Easement for the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District (ERWSD). Moffet made a motion to approve the consent agenda and the motion was seconded by Donovan. Foley stated this allows the ERWSD to clean up the Booth Creek Trailhead area. Daly stated this formalizes the easement and use of this site with the ERWSD as there hadn’t been one in place. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 7-0. The third item on the agenda was the Town Manager Report. Matt Mire, Town Attorney, stated Council had asked the town attorney to look into reviewing changes in two areas of the Town Charter: 1) the election date, change to coincide with the election dates of the County and State; and 2) the 50/50 split between sales tax and Capital Projects Fund. He said to have Town elections on the same date as the county and state, removing the words "following the first Monday" would establish the Town's regular election date as the first Tuesday in November. Also, as he reviewed the Charter, there were additional changes that could clear up the Charter as well including deleting the need for an Election Commission which is outdated, make the Charter gender neutral; adopt ordinances at a regular meeting and a special meeting but not at an emergency meeting; change the language to amend and provide that procedural requirements for initiative and referendum shall be established by ordinance, and if no ordinance addresses the issue at hand, by state statute. That allows the Town Clerk to take advantage of the specific signature verification and other procedures outlined in state law, unless the Town Council wishes to prescribe different procedures; Planning Commission and Environmental Commission. Currently, the Charter provides for two separate commissions, the Planning Commission and the Environmental Commission. Because the Planning and Environmental Commission assumes both of these roles, Council may wish to consider modifying the Charter to establish a single commission. Council agreed that the gender neutrality, election date language change, election commission deletion, procedure to adopt ordinances at regular and special meetings can be done but not at emergency meetings, referendum language updated to be established by ordinance rather than in the Charter, and to combine the Planning Commission and Environmental Commission into the Planning and Environmental Commission. Mire said another item was to update and change the capital program. The language is ambiguous and unclear. This section requires the town manager to create a capital program 3 - 3 - 2 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 3 but doesn’t state how it is split. The Council should consider deleting this section entirely as it doesn’t state it has to be 50/50 split. Daly said it provides for a super majority to approve, and there is merit as it causes Council to make a very conscious decision on how to split the funds. Mire said the five affirmative votes required in the Charter are to approve the budget but doesn’t specify the percentage of the split of funds. On November 19, 1985, the voters passed an amendment to Section 9.4 which changed the wording of the section, but did not change the title. That language remains today: “The manager shall prepare a long-range capital program and submit same to the council no less than two (2) weeks prior to the submission of the budget. Such program shall include a statement as to the application of the sales tax revenues allocated by ordinance to the special revenue fund. Expenditure of these revenues other than for capital improvements and/or open space acquisition or improvements or for the payment of debt service on any obligations of the Town issued to finance the same shall require not less than five (5) affirmative votes of the council.” As written, this Section is ambiguous, particularly the use of the phrase "these revenues." The language states that the Town Manager must prepare a capital program, which must include a statement as to the allocation of the tax revenue it does not actually require any particular allocation. From a legal perspective, there is no requirement in this Section that 50% of any revenues to be allocated to anything. Because of the ambiguity of Section 9.4, and because TABOR provides adequate protection of voter intent in the use of tax revenues, Section 9.4 should be deleted in its entirety according to Mire. Daly asked for a straw vote and discussion of this item. Kurz said to keep it the way it is. Tjossem said to clean it up if the intent is to do a 50/50 split. Foley asked that a separate work session be done to go over the background history and the details of how this evolved. He stated he wants to see the split stay 50/50 so infrastructure needs of the town won’t suffer. Rogers said she isn’t necessarily in favor of the 50/50 split. She wants to know the history as well. She also said there are many different accounts and other resources and revenues for many items and would like to see what pools of money are available to be used for various projects. Zemler said this is not a simple process and he doesn’t feel the town can meet the 50/50 split, as the town has evolved, changed and expanded over the years. Saying “do the 50/50 split” without considering all the different funding resources and components is not practical nor is it that simple. The budget process needs some flexibility and can be done by policy. Daly said a separate discussion at a work session is needed. Donovan said she thinks it’s important to keep this language in the Charter as it survives various Councils’ decisions. She wants to be cognizant of the timing as it will have to go to the voters and on the November ballot. A work session will be done before the July 27th deadline to the Eagle County deadline to get on the ballot. Zemler said another item under town manager report was Timber Ridge. He said an open Request for Proposal (RFP) was entertained. The town has been approached by Jen Wright and Gary Mormon, who redeveloped the Ruins in the Cascade area. Staff is interested in extending them an exclusive for three months to look at this project and come up with 3 - 3 - 3 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 4 something the town may be interested in pursuing. Zemler said to keep this process simplistic at this point. There were two conditions to put forward to them: 1) retain the 600 bed deed restriction and 2) get back to the original intent of the town for this project which was to get it redeveloped, flip it and get rid of the debt. Rogers is against giving them a three month exclusive as it’s unfair to other developers that were interested in the project and had previously submitted a proposal. Giving someone an exclusive right to develop Timber Ridge is not the right procedure at this time. She stated she is burned out on discussing Timber Ridge as this project has been going on for five years. She said she thought the Council had decided the town was going to fix it up, fill it up and hold it until the market turned around and not think about it anymore. Moffet wants to hear the proposal and wants to consider creative solutions. Kurz agrees with Moffet stating he doesn’t think it would require a lot of staff time. He supported going forward with this proposal. Daly asked if it would require a lot of staff time. Zemler said it will take less staff time than the last year of coming up with one year of financing. He said the town could provide them with proformas and site plans that have been done on the project. Tjossem is comfortable with allowing this ninety day exclusive. Foley is wiling to listen to what they have to offer, but he was not in favor of an exclusive for three months. Donovan agreed with Foley as they haven’t extended an exclusive to anyone else. Daly is okay with a ninety day exclusive. Daly, Kurz, Moffet and Tjossem supported moving forward with the exclusive proposal for three months. Zemler said if it turns into something more than anticipated, staff will let them know. The fourth item on the agenda was the discussion on the results of the May 2012, Town of Vail Draft Ballot Measure Survey. David Flaherty with Magellan Strategies reviewed the survey results with Council. He said the Council commissioned a survey conducted by Magellan Strategies to determine the amount of support and opposition for a draft ballot measure that would create a dedicated funding source for qualified athletic, cultural and other special events. If approved, the ballot measure would create two tax increases, a 1.5% increase to the lodging tax and a 0.5% increase to the sales tax. In addition after five years voters would have the opportunity to continue or reject the tax increases. The survey included an “informed” and “uninformed” ballot test. This approach measures voter opinion before and after being educated about the facts of the draft ballot measure. The survey yielded responses from 260 registered voters in the Town of Vail, Colorado. The interviews were conducted May 7th through May 31st, 2012, and the survey has a margin of error of +/- 5.89% at the 95 percent confidence interval. The interviews were conducted by calling respondents on their home and cell phones, and online by sending email invitations and posting the survey on the Town of Vail website. The summary of results was outlined in the memorandum and presentation. Flaherty stated 58% of folks polled would reject this draft ballot measure to 37% who would approve the ballot measure at this time. He said there was not any significant movement for support when they educated folks on what this tax would do. When the five year time limit was discussed, there wasn’t a lot of movement either. The numbers stayed approximately the same 3 - 3 - 4 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 5 throughout the poll. He said 58% opposed the ballot, 35% would approve it, 3% were undecided and 2% refused to answer or didn’t know how they would vote. After the Bravo email went out to encourage voters to support the ballot measure, a majority of voters said they would still oppose it. Flaherty said it would be very unlikely that this ballot question would pass in November. The intensity of the no voters would be a strong opposition overall. The sub-group opposed was comprised mostly of male voters (55%) and male voters were not thrilled about this ballot measure. 57% of those polled said now is not the time to raise taxes. He said looking at the school board vote last November not passing, if school board measures don’t pass, this would be more difficult to pass as the school board reaches a far broader group of voters. Stephen Connolly said the results go against his gut feeling throughout the survey. He thinks this ballot measure is great if it could be limited to a lodging tax. He said if the visitors will pay the tax and not locals, people would approve it. He thinks there needs to be more specific language and get rid of the sales tax. He said there were only 260 folks who responded to the survey. He said a referendum needs 400 votes. He doesn’t feel this is a good cross section of the voters, as the poll was done in May when a lot of people are out of town after ski season. He wants them to look closer at the details and said he thinks a 1% lodging tax would pass. Mia Vlaar representing the Athletic, Cultural and Event (ACE) committee and the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council (VLMDAC), said the ACE committee met on Monday. She said they learned over 80% of the people polled loved special events and the economic vitality they bring to town. 58% didn’t want the tax but 38% thought it was a good idea and there is something to that number. As a group, the ACE committee wants to see if this is still part of town funding or does Council want them to continue to educate the public. She reviewed the State of Colorado tourism marketing statistics. She asked for Council direction on where the ACE committee should go from here. Rogers said Connolly made some good points. The flaw was in the timing not the survey. This couldn’t be a worst time for a poll, and doesn’t reflect reality. The real problem was trying to get it on the ballot in November and a compressed time frame didn’t allow for educating the public. She suggested educating the public during the next year to possibly get it on the ballot in 2013. Donovan said it’s still a sample of the population. She stated this was a strong message from the voters. She respects the poll results and for now, there is not enough support for this. Until it changes significantly, it’s not a good use of Council and staff time. Moffet said the politics being what they are; this would be a hard thing to accomplish at this time. He appreciated everything the committee did. Kurz said the result is too great to look at proceeding to a November ballot this fall. He said to move forward with this would do the community a disservice at this time. Vlaar asked if the committee should continue to work on this or not. Kurz said this is a worthwhile effort but the question is when to achieve it. Tjossem said she thinks they should continue to work on it. A lot of good work has been done and the bottom line is that special events are an economic vitality to the community. The question is how to pay for it. Kurz said Council knows economic development is important and that events are an important part of the community. Foley said the survey results were not what they wanted to see but the 3 - 3 - 5 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 6 lodging community was supportive of it. He said they should continue to educate the community. Flaherty said he appreciated that May is a difficult time to do a poll. He hoped the results were beneficial to the Council. He thanked Council for the opportunity to work for them. The fifth item on the agenda was an audit update for Comcast Field Operations. Matt Mire, Town Attorney, said the Council was in the middle of a franchise renewal process when they decided to stop and do an audit of the Comcast system. Council passed Resolution No. 18, Series of 2011, which approved a compliance agreement. The agreement would cover what needed to be fixed by December 31, 2011. When it was discovered that they couldn’t fix some things until the snow was gone, they moved the deadline to after the spring of 2012 to make sure compliance was achieved and the franchise could be discussed after compliance was met. Compliance was to be achieved after the snow was gone. Braden went out on an audit compliance with Comcast. Mike Trueblood, Vice President of Field Operations for Comcast for Northern Colorado reviewed the audit results with Council per the memorandum attached to the agenda. Rogers asked if Braden and Mire were satisfied with the audit and if compliance had been met. Braden said yes that everything that was identified in the audit had been completed and then some. Mire said the franchise agreement was put on hold and now they can bring it forward to Council. Mire said the franchise agreement will have an eye on the level of service that has been raised to be competitive to other cable services in other cities. Tjossem said she had talked to Trueblood about dropping Universal Sports in the cable system in Vail. That is the only channel that brings to Vail all European ski racing and other international sports. He had told her to write a letter to Comcast stressing the importance of having this channel. She said this is important coming up to 2015 championships. Without that channel guests will be losing out on this event. Trueblood said Comcast is in negotiations with trying to get the multiple sport channels back in the line up. He said it would be important to get a letter of support to the right folks to help give them good reasons to bringing it back on the line up. He would help Council accomplish this. He said there were 250 drop areas versus 140 this year. They are trying to be more diligent and proactive in responding to issues. He introduced Dan Weary, who is the General Manager of the mountain areas of Colorado for Comcast who is working to help clear up issues as they come up. Donovan said since Mike Trueblood came on board they saw a significant change in working with Comcast. Daly said staff can begin negotiations regarding a new franchise agreement with Comcast for a future regular meeting. 3 - 3 - 6 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 7 The sixth item on the agenda was a discussion regarding the reallocation of Commission on Special Events (CSE) Event Funds for the later part of 2012. Sybill Navas, Special Events Coordinator, stated the CSE is requesting that Council review the recommendation for reallocation of funds for late year 2012, ask questions and provide direction. On June 6, the CSE reviewed the 12 responses to the RFP that was issued in order to reallocate the funds that have been returned to the budget due to cancellation of Mojo Man. The CSE evaluated each application according to the criteria developed jointly in cooperation with the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council. The events were defined on specific criteria and the grid scores were in the memorandum. The allocations amounts are based on how they were scored. The first event, Vail America Days, was given $15,000 to expand the fireworks display. This year, close proximity fireworks will be used in Vail Village for a twenty minute show along Meadow Drive. They hope this brings more people into town. The second event was the Tour of Vail and Crit Cycling event that received $15,000 to have a time trial that extended a two-day weekend to three-day weekend. The third event was Season of Song and it was allocated $10,000. This event will bring in many talented singer/songwriters, including proposed concerts in the Ford Amphitheater and it will take place over many days in Vail during the third week in September. The fourth event was the Living at Your Peak which was allocated $10,000 to be held the second week in September; they will work with Season of Song event producers to bring in a headliner for a grander celebration. And finally, the fifth event to receive funding was Vail Rocks! which will receive $15,000. Shannon Foley, producer of the Vail Rocks! event said they are very excited about bringing this event to Vail. This event raises funds for a rock and roll cancer foundation to help save lives. She said to date, they have had several events around the world; Mount Everest, Mount Kilimanjaro, Machu Picchu, and Mount Fuji are some of the places that have hosted this event. The foundation is based in Denver, Colorado. They have been asked to do an event closer to home. They have been scouting potential locations f or two and a half years. They came to Vail and went to the top of Vail Mountain, scouting out various locations where they can play music, hike and other activities. The majority of registrations are currently from Dallas and Austin, Texas and the other hub states are California, New York and New Jersey. The admission fee covers the cost of the hike, EMT’s, provide breakfast and lunch. Registrants make a pledge anywhere from $100 to $10,000 in exchange for various gifts from sponsors up to a rock star package, that includes meet and greets, free drinks, etc. based on their pledge amounts. The concert benefits the Love Hope Strength Foundation. Home base for the bone marrow drives is Red Rocks. There are a lot of festivals held around the United States that support this foundation. The result of the Vail event will help the First Children’s Cancer Center in Tanzania. The number of children being treated has outgrown the size of the hospital and doctor who treats them. There is a need for additional funding for two more doctors of $80,000 for two years to handle the overflow of children. This event touches both local and global initiatives. They hope to expand the bone marrow drives and are doing them at Spring Back to Vail and Snow Daze. Sybill said the Commission on Special Events (CSE) are excited for this event as Vail Mountain is accessible to a much broader range of people to participate in the event. Shannon Foley said this puts Vail in the echelon group of mountains around the world for hosting this event. Rogers said Living at Your Peak was supposed to do a concert but she heard they are not doing a concert. Rob Levine said the event producers are trying to make it work but it hasn’t worked 3 - 3 - 7 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 8 so far. They are looking into some other fun ways to have a community focused event to kick off Living at Your Peak. He said there are 120 participants paying $1,000 for a full, general session, including a key note session. There is anticipated to be an additional 300-500 people attending other sessions. There is a possibility to do something other than a concert. They understand that funds were clearly designated for a concert by the CSE. He suggested the CSE could review the proposal again. Shannon Foley suggested that they have musicians from her event that could be used for this event as well. Further discussion about other events, scoring and funding were done by Council. Moffet said he is not voting next year to give out any funding at the last minute as this is inappropriate. Tjossem said she agrees that this has opened their eyes to the inconsistencies. She said there was no communication between the Council, Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council (VLMDAC) and the Commission on Special Events (CSE) and that some event producers are going to each one for funding. There is no cohesiveness in how funding is delegated. In order to have funding for an event, producers need to have permits in line, get approval in advance for venues being used, and have all their ducks in a row before any funding will be considered. Daly said he agrees with Tjossem and Moffet and it appeared that money was burning a whole in our pocket and this process will not happen again. Some of the events are not well thought through. Council wants the dollars carefully spent and the thought that goes into them are great opportunities for Vail. Rogers agreed and said she can’t support the $10,000 funding for Living at Your Peak. She suggested they table the $10,000 pending a reapplication to the CSE for this event and receive their approval for another component. She said events should be well thought out and all their ducks solidly in a row before they ask for money. Some of that was not true for some of the presentations. Rogers made a motion to approve the reallocation request with the modification that the $60,000 be allocated according to the schedule presented and deleting the $10,000 for Living at Your Peak and that money be put in abeyance subject to further CSE review and approval for another component of their event. Donovan said they should not be too harsh on the CSE. As this cancellation was done at the last minute, the CSE had no control over what events or components of the events didn’t happen. They have done a great job filling in the month of September, which was identified as a weak spot in the calendar and the town will have great things happening in September. Foley asked about why the MoJo Man event did not happen. Navas said the permit that was applied for with the Forest Service was not approved until late March and they couldn’t announce the event until they had Forest Service approval. It was too late to market this event at that late date, as the event was to happen on Memorial Day weekend. There was no second to the motion and the motion died. Foley made a motion to approve the reallocations as outlined in the memorandum and the motion was seconded by Donovan. 3 - 3 - 8 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 9 Rogers asked if that included the $10,000 to Living at Your Peak event though the money was for a concert that is now not happening. Donovan stated this was to take the Council out of an administrative position and allowing the CSE to fund this event or not which is in their purview. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 6-1, with Rogers opposed. The seventh item on the agenda was a request to continue Ordinance No. 2, Series of 2012, an ordinance amending Chapter 12-6, Residential Districts, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Section 12- 3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to establish a new zone district, Vail Village Townhouse (VVT) District, and setting forth details in regard thereto; and Resolution No. 7, Series of 2012, amending Chapter VII, Vail Village Sub-Areas, East Gore Creek Sub-Area (#6), Vail Village Master Plan, pursuant to Chapter VIII, Implementation and Amendment, Vail Village Master Plan, to include recommendations related to a new Vail Village Townhouse (VVT) District, and setting forth details in regard thereto. Rachel Dimond, Planner, stated the Community Development Department requested the Council grant a continuance of Resolution No. 7, Series of 2012, and the second reading of Ordinance No. 2, Series of 2012, to its July 17, 2012, public hearing to allow the applicant additional time to gather information for the Council's review. Moffet made motion to continue to Resolution No. 7, Series of 2012, and the second reading of Ordinance No. 2, Series of 2012, to the July 17, 2012, public hearing. The motion was seconded by Kurz. A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0. Foley congratulated Bill and his wife on their new baby. The eighth item on the agenda was first reading of Ordinance No. 7, Series of 2012, an ordinance repealing and reenacting the approved development plan for Phase IV of Special Development District No. 6, Vail Village Inn, pursuant to Article 12-9A-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the conversion of one existing fractional fee club unit to one dwelling unit, located at 16 Vail Road (The Sebastian) / a portion of lots M, N, and O, Block 5D, Vail Village Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. Rachel Dimond, Planner, stated one owner wanted to convert from a fractional unit to a whole unit. She reviewed the memorandum and the criteria for this conversion. Staff believes that a unit of this size is typically put into a short term pool. On May 12, 2012, the Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) recommended approval, with conditions, to the Vail Town Council for a major amendment to Special Development District No. 6. The PEC also approved, with conditions, the amendment to an existing conditional use permit for the reduction in fractional fee units. Should Ordinance No. 7, Series of 2012 be approved, The Sebastian will be permitted to increase the number of dwelling units from one to two and decrease the number of fractional fee units from 50 to 49. Daly asked how this benefits the town by changing from a fractional unit to a whole unit. Dominic Mauriello, with Mauriello and Associates, representing the applicant, said Mike Cuthbertson from Four Timbers Resort and Lance Thompson, General Manager for the Sebastian were in attendance for any additional questions for them. 3 - 3 - 9 7/17/2012 Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 19, 2012 Page 10 Mauriello reviewed the power point presentation with Council. The Sebastian is a community partner and continues to contribute and add money into the community, as well as continuing to add improvements to the property. He said this is the only unit that doesn’t have multiple shares in the fractional unit. This will make it more viable to putting it into the rental pool if it is a whole unit. The unit is under contract and the soon-to-be owner wants to add it to the rental pool with the services and amenities of The Sebastian. This unit complies with all the zoning regulations and complies with the criteria for review of a Major SDD Amendment. Daly asked what percentage of fractional units have been sold at the property. Mike Cuthbertson said 40% of the units were currently sold. This is the only unit which has a clean title. Jonathan Staufer, an adjacent property owner, stated he supported this proposal as The Sebastian has made their property one of the premier properties in Vail. This will allow for more hot beds and it is delightful to work with great community partners. Rogers made a motion to approve first reading of Ordinance No. 7, Series of 2012, with the condition and findings per the memorandum, “The applicant shall amend all applicable condominium maps to reflect the change in use and cause said maps to be recorded in the office of the Eagle County Clerk and Recorder within 90 days of approval of the major amendment to the special development district application”. The motion was seconded by Tjossem. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. Zemler contacted Lance Thompson, General Manager of The Sebastian personnel about the garage doors being open. Thompson stated the garage was programmed to stay open for 15 minutes when in use. They have reprogrammed it so it now stays open for seven minutes and when they have substantial deliveries. They are continuing to work on improving this situation. The ninth item on the agenda was second reading of Ordinance No. 8, Series of 2012, an ordinance amending the Official Zoning Map to rezone the Vail Golf Course Clubhouse Parcel from the Outdoor Recreation District to the General Use District, located at 1778 Sunburst Drive/Vail Golf Course Clubhouse Parcel, and setting forth details in regard thereto. Tjossem made a motion to continue the second reading of Ordinance No. 8, Series of 2012, to its July 3, 2012, public hearing and the motion was seconded by Moffet. A vote was taken and the motion passed, 7-0. The tenth item on the agenda was adjournment. As there was no further business, Foley made a motion to adjourn and the motion was seconded by Moffet. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously, 7-0. The meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m. Respectfully Submitted, Attest: __________________________________ Andrew P.

PRESENTER(S): Stan Zemler, Pedro Campos Zehren and Associates, Kevin Atkinson Phelps-Atkinson Golf Design, Vail Recreation District ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: The Town Council is being asked to provide direction to the design team on the Golf and Nordic Clubhouse programming and revised design, as well a decision to include moving the 18th green as part of the project. BACKGROUND: The council based on the July 3, meeting requested some additional concerns be addressed in design alternatives. A revised design has been prepared and reviewed by the recreation subcommittee. It is the recommendation of the committee that the new design is a better solution than those previously reviewed and should be pursued. The recreation subcommittee with regard to the modifications to the driving range operations supported the modifications to the net verses the use of low flight balls. If the final design of the relocated 18th hole results in a par 4, then the modification of the 13th hole as recommended in the master plan should be pursued sooner than later. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommendation is as follows: Proceed with the building design as previously presented to the town council Provide parking as presented in the revised design on July 3, 2012. Relocate the 18th hole as per concept F and with final design reviewed by the Vail Recreation District and Design Review Board Amend the budget as necessary to address the recommended changes Direct staff to withdraw the rezoning application at this time, to be modified for future zoning applications.

PURPOSE The purpose of this agenda item and Joint Session with the Vail Recreation Board (VRD) is to present an update on the Golf and Nordic Center remodel project based on design revisions to plans presented to the Vail Town Council at the July 3 meeting and receive direction from the Town Council on both the project design and the relocation of the 18th green. On July 3, 2012 the Vail Recreation Board and Vail Town Council were presented a revised site plan addressing parking which placed all the required parking without using the area of the current 18th green. In addition, two site plans were reviewed regarding the 18th green and the affects of the safety zones associated with golf play and remodeled Golf and Nordic Clubhouse project. The town council directed the staff and design team to investigate other design alternatives regarding the project. Information to be presented includes: • Revised 18th hole design Concept F • Impacts to the budget to implement Concept F • Revised project design incorporating 18th hole relocation Concept F Site Option 3 The Golf Course and Nordic Center Clubhouse remodel project is a partnership between the Town of Vail (TOV) and the Vail Recreation District (VRD). The project envisioned a significant remodel of the existing clubhouse and addition to provide community space and support areas for programing which exists today. The project is being funded with a portion of the conference center fund ballot initiative which received overwhelming support 80 % in favor from the electorate last fall. The two staffs and recreation subcommittee have worked with the design team from Phelps Atkinson Design and Zehren and Associates on the project revisions. This update provides project design revisions as requested by the Town Council. 5 - 1 - 1 7/17/2012 2 II. KEY POINTS OF THE PROJECT UPDATE • The recreation subcommittee reviewed a revised 18th hole relocation, Concept E which contemplates: o the elimination of the safety concern from the driving range. This can be accomplished through use of low flight range balls or. installing the adequate safety netting. o The hole length is increased from what was presented on July 3 o The hole configuration was reviewed by the VRD staff and consultants however, the final par will be based on the final design of relocation. o The green is closer to the clubhouse building, finishing area and proposed grill area o These changes were felt to be good solutions to address some of the concerns expressed at the public hearing. • A parking requirement of 115 cars is being assumed as a baseline to meet the needs of the project based on the following information. A parking study commissioned in 1985 for the clubhouse expansion project, stated 75 parking spaces were needed for the operations related to the golf course and clubhouse and 16 spaces for employees. The town code requirement for parking is one parking space for each 120 SF of “seating floor area” at “meeting rooms, convention facilities” resulting in an additional 24 spaces. The total number of spaces based on this data is then 115 parking spaces for the new project. The actual review and approval of the parking requirement will be determined by the Planning and Environment Council. The parking lot has been redesigned to meet the 115 parking space number by re-striping and slightly expanding the existing parking lot. • The community space and all accessory spaces restrooms, kitchens, pre- convene space, and parking, are designed only for up to 200 person gatherings. • The Vail Town Council as owner and decision maker for the Vail Golf and Nordic Clubhouse project is being asked for direction and a final decision on the movement of the 18th hole, which if approved will be finalized by the Vail Recreation District. This decision is critical to the overall project in multiple ways. It affects the design of the building and site layout which is at a stand still without further direction, this affects the ability to continue the entitlement and construction document preparation and eventual construction of the project within the timelines previously established. These timelines were considered the most desirable to reduce construction risks and recreation interruptions. The pros and cons and staff and design team recommendation on the three design alternatives for the 18th hole will be discussed in greater detail below. 5 - 1 - 2 7/17/2012 3 III. 18TH HOLE RELOCATION DISCUSSION INCLUDING PROS AND CONS The town and VRD staffs have been working with Zehren and Associates as well as two golf course experts to understand the influence of the 18th hole on the design program for the Golf and Nordic Clubhouse building and site layout. • Safety of both recreation users and guests was key to all designs. • A major starting point with the clubhouse design was to capture the most dramatic views in Vail with regard to the Gore Range to the east and have the community space be able to literally sell itself on taking advantage of this unbelievable setting. • Another component was to embrace the ability to have the spaces work both indoors and outdoors in a near seamless experience between the two environments. • Separation of community space users from Golf and Nordic users as much as possible was critical. • The ability to provide a logical flow for recreation users and to provide access on the ground level was important. • Enhance the sense of arrival to the clubhouse. As previously reviewed, the building design accomplishes all of the design intent assuming the 18th hole is relocated. Site plan Option 1, 18th hole relocated assuming the driving range safety issues remain illustrates this. Site plan Option 2 illustrates the scenario of the 18th hole remaining in place, and identifies issues and design changes necessary, if the 18th hole is retained. An important factor which is highlighted on the site plans is the ball flight safety zones. Errant balls hit from the driving range clearing the fence and landing near the clubhouse creates one zone. The play of the 18th hole creates another safety zone. The ball flight safety zones are areas which need to be avoided in the design of golf courses and clubhouse areas. Over time these zones have been expanded in recognition of enhancements to equipment resulting in larger variances with regard to errant shots. Understanding errant shots happen throughout the play of a round of golf, it is those areas where people linger for a period of time which are of the most concern such as greens, tee boxes, start and finish areas as well as all seating areas and buildings as well. Included for the council’s consideration are pros and cons of either moving the hole or leaving the hole as is and how this relates to the project as previously submitted for Option 1 moving the hole and Option 2 These were the compiled together by the design team and both the staffs of the VRD and Town of Vail. 5 - 1 - 3 7/17/2012 4 Pros of Site Option 1, 18th hole relocation Concept D • The current clubhouse sits in the 18th hole play approach ball flight safety zone, moving the green removes this safety concern • This allows for the best views and the outdoor uses of decks for the community space and grill • Allows the community space and grill to function in an indoor/outdoor environment which given the location of the space is one of is strongest appeal to users. • Provides separation of the community users from the recreation users during gatherings • Provides for a more continuous flow of recreation users to flow between end of the round and the restaurant and pro shop flow which is more natural • Does not introduce a long walking or doubling back which introduces delay in pace of play • The area of the existing green can be used for enhanced low impact turf recreation such as; bocce ball, croquet, lawn bowling, or a turfed putting course. • Provides a flexible golf hole set up • Still provides a green area (landscaped) next to adjacent residential neighbors Cons of Site Option 1, 18th hole relocation Concept D • Cost of the construction of moving the hole • Increases the distance from the clubhouse to the finish hole • Changes the Vail Golf Course • The immediate adjacent neighbors are not on a golf hole Pros of Site Option 2, not moving 18th green • Status quo of the golf course remains • Saves the cost of moving the hole minus any improvements needed to mitigate the safety concerns • The adjacent neighbors are on a golf hole Cons of Site Option 2, not moving 18th green • Prohibits use of the community and grill space to have an exterior use component. • Conflict between golf and community space users. • Would require a protective system for the expanded community space building edge (net). • Requires golf cart to park a significant distance from the hole which delays pace of play and increases the size of the finish area. • Significantly impacts the desirability and success of the community space from function and aesthetics • Begins to question the overall feasibility of being successful in booking additional gatherings verses the cost of the investment in the community space 5 - 1 - 4 7/17/2012 5 Revised 18th hole relocation Concept F, Option 3 site plan The recreation subcommittee reviewed a revised 18th hole relocation, Concept F prepared by Kevin Atkinson of Phelps-Atkinson Golf Course Design, which contemplates the elimination of the safety concern from the driving range through use of low flight range balls or installing the adequate safety netting. The hole length is increased. The hole configuration was reviewed by the VRD staff and consultants and it could result in a par 5 golf hole. The final par will be determined based on the final design. The green is closer to the clubhouse building, finishing area and proposed grill area. The changes were felt to be good solutions to address some of the concerns expressed at the public hearing. As was prepared for the other two options the staff, design team and recreation subcommittee have prepared a list of pros and cons for the new recommend option 3 Pros of Site Option 3, 18th hole Concept F • The driving range safety zone concern is eliminated, making the overall design safer • The hole could play as a par 5, final design would determine the actual par. • The acceleration of 13th hole master plan improvement would maintain the par 71 course rating if the 18th is not a par 5, the 13th is a stronger par 5 than the existing 18th • The finish area and proximity of the green to the finish area and grill are much better and provide a much stronger and direct visual relationship between these elements. • The movement of the green affects less adjacent properties and eliminates the majority of safety zone issues associated with the location of the existing green. • The area of the existing green can be used for enhanced low impact turf recreation, bocce ball, croquet, lawn bowling, or a turfed putting course. • The clubhouse as envisioned will be able to embrace both indoor and outdoor spaces with outdoor uses in outdoor patios in the south and southeast now clear of safety zone conflicts. • Parking is contained to existing parking with no encroachment into golf play area. • Transit remains in same location and continues to service residents and guests. • Clarified and safer arrival sequence and internal auto circulation for guests, golfers, event, and less conflicts with bus turning movements (this is the reason the curb cuts are being changed). • Enhanced quality and appearance, and better operations of key Town of Vail amenities and recreation uses (golf and Nordic). • Additional parking supply for the clubhouse for periods where there are no gatherings. Cons of Site Option 3, 18th hole Concept F • If netting is used to remove the driving range safety concern o Cost of the netting o Minor loss of use of a portion of the driving range 5 - 1 - 5 7/17/2012 6 o Visual elements of the taller nets • The hole is changed • Some homeowners are still affected by loss of 18th green frontage • Little ability to provide outdoor turf areas associated with the community space. • Encroachment into existing berms and removal of some existing vegetation in order to accommodate required parking in current parking area • If low flight balls are used o The dissatisfaction of low flight range balls by users o The loss of both range ball fees and instructional fees as the range is reduced to a warm up range verses a practice range VI. REZONING AND CONDITIONAL USES At the July 3, the Vail Town Council continued the hearing on the rezoning to August 5. The withdrawal of the rezoning application will be forthcoming, as the project design evolved, and a new zoning application will be filed. While it is anticipated that a more comprehensive discussion of zoning and the potential development review process will be held on the 5th, the following summarize a few key points relative to this discussion. • The clubhouse area is currently zoned both General Use (GU) and Outdoor Recreation (OR). This is an awkward and dysfunctional condition best resolved by one zone district over the entire clubhouse area. • GU is considered the most appropriate zoning for the club house area. • Neighbor concerns with the broad range of land uses included in the GU zone district can be mitigated by “conditional GU zoning”, i.e. the zoning can be applied to the property with further restrictions on future land uses. • The area to be re-zoned would be reduced in size to cover as small an area as necessary to accommodate the clubhouse redevelopment, i.e. commensurate with diagrams described above. • The GU zone district allows for golf courses as a conditional use. The club house and related facilities would be an “accessory use” to the golf course, a use that is “customarily incidental and accessory to permitted or conditional uses”. As such the club house redevelopment would require Planning Commission approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). This process allows for the review of all design and operational aspects of the clubhouse and would provide a forum for community and neighborhood input on the proposal. Based on comments received thus far it can be assumed that operational topics to be discussed during the review of the CUP would include, but not be limited to: • capacity of clubhouse facility • outdoor spaces, how they will be used/managed • noise impacts both from outdoor and indoor activities • hours of operation • lighting • parking and transportation management plan • service, delivery and trash plans The CUP process (and any proposed development in the GU district) also requires submittal of a site specific development plan. This process will involve the following considerations: 5 - 1 - 6 7/17/2012 7 • building design • decks and patios • landscaping • building height • parking lot design • bus operations • emergency services Final recommendations on future zoning/development review procedures will be made following decisions on the 18th green and the overall design of the project. These recommendations along with a proposed schedule will be presented to the Council on August 5th. It would be helpful to have any specific direction and/or questions from the Council so they could be incorporated into a staff presentation on August 5th. V. NEXT STEPS August 5 • Hearing on rezoning, due the evolution of the project design, staff, council and the adjacent neighbors desire to change the application of the rezoning, the application will be withdrawn. There will be no rezoning hearing. Recommendations on re-zoning and development review processes will be made to the Council with the goal of reaching agreement on subsequent development review procedures. July- August • Design team works on the design development of the project with the two staffs, recreation subcommittee and public on the design of the project. • Application for the temporary structures to house the clubhouse functions during construction may be made. Late August • Application is made for the revised plat, conditional use permit applications. September-October • Review and approval by the various town boards. • Construction begins on temporary clubhouse facilities November- January • Construction plans and documents for the project are prepared February • Project is bid to contractors March • Contract Awarded April • Construction begins on the clubhouse project VI. STAFF RECOMMENDATION 5 - 1 - 7 7/17/2012 8 • Proceed with the building design as previously presented to the town council • Provide parking as presented in the revised design on July 3, 2012. • Relocate the 18th hole as per concept F and with final design reviewed by the Vail Recreation District and Design Review Board • Amend the budget as necessary to address the recommended changes • Direct staff to withdraw the rezoning application at this time, to be modified for future zoning applications. VII. ACTION REQUESTED The Town Council is being asked to provide direction to the design team on the Golf and Nordic Clubhouse programming and revised design, as well a decision to include moving the 18th green as part of the project.

Trading current 18th par 5 for 515 yard par 4 is a loser for the golf course even with change to 13 which is a good idea in any event. Proposed 18th from back black tee with a 200 yd carry over water usually into a prevailing west wind is not even doable for 75% of the men's club and I am probably being over optimistic at that. Even without the tough tee shot over the water most players will not have a shot at reaching the green in regulation from the black tee. Taking yardage from a course that is already too short at altitude is not good. I have lived in Vail since 1990 and have played a little golf in the Valley. I understand that golf is not your only consideration and you are trying to raise income from other uses. I think your figures of $5plus million from use of mini convention-meeting-wedding facility are off base. This location because of other better locations in Vail and surrounding communities has not been a good place even for a restaurant, no reflection on current board member intended. I have seen the emails questioning the uses other than as a golf course related use and have not seen a comment from the board or town council or any legal opinion about it? Of course, you can't play golf in the winter but I don't think that justifies a mini convention center at this location if there is a restrictive covenant in place requiring "golf'?

Why don't you guys get it? You wouldn't want it next to your homes! I made a suggestion to Billy and Jeff that you move your patio I event space to the area next to the driving range. Then the sound could be reflected away from those adjacent homes. Get rid of that low lying building on the north side of the Club House and take a few yards from the driving range if you need to. I don't think that we elected our representatives to force their wishes on tax payers adjacent to the 18th fairway and green in a residential neighborhood. The adjacent homeowners shouldn't have to hire lawyers to fight the town council and town of Vail! It's time that the town council made the right decision.

A new "Concept Fit, which preserves the 18th hole as a par 5/0ptional par 4, will be presented to the you on Tuesday. I hope you seriously consider adopting this concept (over the present Concept D) as it best shows that the community can work together solving varied interests. However, I continue to urge you to "go slow" and not tear up the 18th fairway starting 6 August! In my opinion a more prudent approach would be to build a "19th hole" alongside the 12th fairway this year so as to retain 18 holes in the 2013 season while the course undergoes more extensive renovation. Also, this extra par 3 hole will allow a full course play during future improvements, which will arise as the years go by. (I believe this option may also be presented by the Rec Board.) The new clubhouse construction should commence as soon as feasible. Another concern to consider is how to run the new restaurant. With VR putting in a new gondola from the village wedding parties will have a serious option to listening to the racquet from 170. A decent restaurant with affordable options is important to all. What we have now is sad.

The first time the ideas were presented to the public a new Clubhouse with an event facility were amongst many items presented as community projects for the former conference center funds. I don't know where you were there or whether you didn't want to hear the objections that the people from the neighborhood raised concerning the event space. There was great support for the new Clubhouse but many concerns were raised about the proposed event faCility. Traffic, parking, added noise from music at weddings etc. were all mentioned and there was no doubt what ever that the neighbors did not wish to have an event facility at their doorsteps. Anyone who is in favor of paving over green space obviously doesn't know how difficult it was for Vail to protect green space during its early years and doesn't understand, or doesn't care, about the detrimental impact it will have on the neighborhood. t Other citizens, including myself, could not see the sense in having a tax supported entity compete with the private sector. The 18th hole wouldn't have to be moved if it wasn't for safety concerns regarding the installation of the Event Facility. As to the vote, you seem to feel that the vote was an endorsement for the Event Center. You are wrong. The question was: should the funds collected by the lodging tax be used for community projects or returned to customers who never paid for any of it? Only a fool could have voted no. Certainly, no one voted in favor of a publicly subSidized event facility that will compete with the lodging community that collected the tax in the first place.

It was clear from those conversations that no one has asked their opinion or polled the lodging properties here in town. If your desire to put heads in beds conflicts with existing event space that these hotels own, or you already own; or conflicts with restaurants that already have seating capable of hosting a group of that size, I would think you would abandon your desire for adding that venue. Please consider talking to all of the properties that collect lodging tax and possibly the restaurants before proceeding with your plans. You clearly don't have the support you may be assuming.

BACKGROUND: The Town of Vail has seen a significant increase in the volume and frequency of shuttles and hotel courtesy vehicles in the past few years as a result of the successful Vail Billion Dollar Redevelopment. Many convenient areas that are within close proximity to Vail Mountain and to both the Lionshead and Vail Villages are now being overused for the drop-off and pick-up of guests. Currently the Town does not have any policies or regulation specific to these services. The increase of use of these services has become problematic for critical portal areas to the Mountain and the Villages and other congested neighborhood areas, causing safety issues and congestion. On March 6th Council directed staff to develop alternatives for solving these issues. Three alternatives will be presented to Coucil for discussion and input. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends reviewing the three Alternates, receiving public input, and providing staff with further direction. Based on the current input provided, staff is recommending Alternate I, implementing a trial basis schedule for shuttles, and including the ability for Large SUV’s to drop off on the top deck of the Lionshead Parking Structure. ATTACHMENTS: Memo Vail Shuttle Citizen responses 071612 7/17/2012 To: Shuttle/Courtesy Vehicle Operators From: Public Works / Police Department Date: July 17th, 2012 Subject: Shuttle and Courtesy Car Alternates I. BACKGROUND The Town of Vail has seen a significant increase in the volume and frequency of shuttles and hotel courtesy vehicles in the past few years as a result of the successful Vail Billion Dollar Redevelopment. Many convenient areas that are within close proximity to Vail Mountain and to both the Lionshead and Vail Villages are now being overused for the drop-off and pick-up of guests. Currently the Town does not have any policies or regulation specific to these services. The increase of use of these services has become problematic for critical portal areas to the Mountain and the Villages and other congested neighborhood areas, causing safety issues and congestion. (See Attached Table and Graph of Shuttle Frequency at LHWC over Presidents Day Weekend) On March 6th Council directed staff to develop alternatives for solving these issues. The Town staff held a public meeting on April 16th, to discuss these issues and receive feedback from the public. As a result of this meeting, input from Council on March 6th, and internal staff discussions, staff presented three draft Alternative solutions to the shuttle/courtesy car operators. The alternates were emailed to the operators on June 6th, with an open meeting to discuss the alternates on June 13th. II. ALTERNATES The following are the Alternates that were provided to the operators to be discussed. For the purposes of these alternatives the following abbreviations are used: LHWC Lionshead Welcome Center (East Lionshead Circle) LHTC Lionshead Transit Center (South Frontage Rd) VTRC Vail Transportation Center Alternate I (Preferred Alternative) includes a combination of shuttle and courtesy car registration, shuttle scheduling, location restrictions, and capital improvements. The 6 - 1 - 1 7/17/2012 Town of Vail Page 2 attached Tables provide more detailed information for each location and the associated restrictions for this Alternate I. In general this alternative restricts the number of shuttles arriving at any one location to scheduled times, and to a maximum of 3 or 4 at any one time (including LHWC, LHTC, VTRC, & Golden Peak). It requires all courtesy cars to use signed skier drop off locations and 15 minute parking zones only, restricts shuttles from the Hansen Ranch Rd area, and restricts all shuttle and courtesy car activity from the Mountain Haus area. Suggested capital improvements include; modifications to the Lionshead skier drop to allow for a safer and more efficient one way loop with designated courtesy car spaces, extend LHWC shuttle drop-off area by one shuttle length, additional signage, RFI readers installed at drop off locations to track usage and mitigate abuse. Shuttles and courtesy cars would be required to register and comply with designated policies. It would be expected that the shuttle and courtesy car drivers/operators would assist in policing activities and report issues and abuse. Alternative II (Most Restrictive-No Shuttles at LHWC) is the same as Alternate I with the following exceptions; Shuttles would not be allowed to use the area in front of the LHWC, all shuttle activity in the east Lionshead area would be required to use the LHTC on a scheduled basis. This Frontage Rd drop-off location is 400’ longer of a walk and requires the use of stairs or elevator. This would be almost identical to the walk distance at the VTRC. (See attached walk distance maps) The LHWC would be used for In-Town buses only and the current shuttle area would be removed and signed for courier loading and delivery only (FedEx, UPS, USPS). Alternative III (Least Restrictive-Accommodate more Shuttles at LHWC) is the same as Alternate I with the following exceptions; Shuttles would be restricted to LHWC, VTRC, & Golden Peak with no scheduled times, however, scheduling would be implemented on an as needed basis. In addition to the capital improvements noted in Alternate I, this alternate would extend the LHWC shuttle drop-off area by five shuttle lengths (as previously presented to Council on March 6th.) III. Costs Based on preliminary concept ideas and scoping, staff estimates that the approximate costs of these improvements as follows; (After further direction these cost estimates will be refined) Alternate I A. Registration & Scheduling: Admin Cost only; Recoup Cost by Registrant B. Vehicle Transponders: $50-$100, Paid by Registrant C. Additional Signage: $10k D. RFI detectors: $8k per location, Up to 8 Locations 6 - 1 - 2 7/17/2012 Town of Vail Page 3 E. Extend LHWC Shuttle Area $30k F. Improve LH drop off: $100k-$300k (See Below) i. One way drop off loop $100k ii. Interior gates and ticketing $ 50k iii. Add ramp at east end lowest level $150k Item F requires structural improvements to the LH Parking Structure. At a minimum, in order to make the LH drop off safer and more efficient as a one way loop a new cross aisle must be cut thru the center structural wall at an approximate cost of $100k. It is also desirable to allow drop off traffic to be able to directly access the LH parking structure from this area, requiring an internal gate and ticket system at a cost of approximately $50k. An additional impact of improving the drop off location is the closure of the lowest level west ramp, this leaves only one single lane ramp to access the remaining 120 paid parking structure spaces. Adding a new ramp to allow for two way traffic at the east end of the lowest level would cost approximately $150k. However, it may be possible that the additional new ramp could be postponed, by using the existing one-way lower east ramp for two way traffic; this would at minimum require appropriate signage and parking pass control. By signing the existing one-ramp to a two-way ramp with uphill traffic with the right of way, the Town could defer these costs until warranted. This ramp would access approximately 120 of the 1100 parking spaces in the lowest part of the parking structure, and could be pass restricted to only allow those who were aware of the restricted access and use the structure on a frequent basis. However if the ticketing gate is added to the drop off, this ramp could remain a one way uphill exit ramp with entering access from the drop off area only. Alternate II, would be the same as Alternate I, less the cost of E. Alternate III, would be the same as Alternate I, with the cost of E being $100k. IV. PUBLIC COMMENTS Staff received some verbal input from a few operators at the review meeting on June 13th, and additional written correspondence since that time which are attached. In general the majority of the comments revolved around the implementation of a shuttle schedule, and the restrictions of larger courtesy cars (Sprinters vans & large SUV with cargo boxes) and how this would potentially negatively affect the guest experience. Staff recognizes the difficulty of this change, however, in order to provide a better/safer experience at the drop-off locations some change is necessary. With regard to shuttle buses the options are either to accommodate the random peaks of 8-10 shuttles at a time by relocating or increasing the shuttle drop off areas, or by designating a schedule that will spread the peak times out. Staff believes that implementing a schedule for the shuttles will help spread out the concentration of shuttles at each location as well as provide guests with a known schedule for arrival and departure of shuttles which could be provided by each operator and posted at each shuttle location. Recognizing the variables with skier shuttle drop off and weather conditions, it is recommended this be implemented on a trial basis. 6 - 1 - 3 7/17/2012 Town of Vail Page 4 With regard to the courtesy cars, it is necessary to separate the shuttle drop off locations with the courtesy car drop offs to further reduce conflict and volume, and to allow this type of drop-off in current available skier drop-off locations only. The one skier drop location that is an issue for the larger courtesy car drop-off vehicles which have cargo boxes is the Lionshead skier drop off. This drop off provides a signed maximum clearance of 7’. This accommodates all SUV’s including those with ski racks, however it does not accommodate large SUV’s with cargo boxes. Cargo boxes range from 12” to 18” high on top of vehicles. Larger SUV’s (GMC Yukon 2500) have clearance requirements as high as 6’5”. A more standard size SUV (Volvo XC90) has a clearance requirement of 5’11”. So the large SUV’s will not fit with any cargo box, and standard SUV’s will only fit with a smaller cargo box. One option that has been suggested is to allow larger SUV courtesy cars with cargo boxes to drop off on the top deck of the parking structure at the LHWC elevators. V. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends reviewing the three Alternates, receiving public input, and providing staff with further direction. Based on the current input provided, staff is recommending Alternate I, implementing a trial basis schedule for shuttles, and including the ability for Large SUV’s to drop off on the top deck of the Lionshead Parking Structure. This will require supplementing the 2012 budget by approximately $190,000 for items C,E, and a portion of F. These budget numbers are preliminary and pending the direction by Council, a more detailed plan and cost estimate will be provided for supplemental review. We also recommend not installing the RFI detectors at this time to allow for a trial period of the shuttle schedules. The RFI detectors can be installed at a later date if and when it is determined tracking and mitigation is required. 6 - 1 - 4 7/17/2012 Shuttle/CourtesyCarAlternate#1 Belowisadescriptionofproposedactivitiesateachcurrentlyuseddrop 2/17/20122/18/20122/19/20122/20/2012 ShuttleDescriptionAM&PMAM&PMAM&PMAMOnly BeaverCreekWest5 Cascade33302513 CME 32 EaglePoint1413157 FourSeasons91541 HolidayInn1110157 Lodge@Vail312 ManorVail1 NovaGuides 2 Private1 RitzB.Gulch12 RitzCarlton1 SandstoneCreekClub106115 Sebastian3 SimbaRun26272211 Solaris66 Sonnenalp3 Streamside24222211 Taxi 1 TheWren8734 Tutlebus 1 VailRun145114 TOTALSHUTTLES17314913265 *Times:8:00am 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 012345678910 Fr e q u e n c y of Oc c u r e n c e #ofShuttlePresentatthesametimewithin5min.period 2/17/12AM&PM 2/18/12AM&PM 2/19/12AM&PM 2/20/12AMONLY 6 - 1 - 7 7/17/2012 6 - 1 - 8 7/17/2012 6 - 1 - 9 7/17/2012 To:TomKassmell From:JeffMiller Date:June20th,2012 Subject:ShuttleandCourtesyCarComments&Concerns  Tom, ThankyouverymuchforholdingthemeetingonJune13thtodiscusspossibleoptionsandchangesto theshuttleandcourtesycarproceduresinthetownofVail.Mypointsandcommentstotheproposed alternativesareasfollowsbasedonourhotelandsituation: #1.Wemustbeabletodropoffasclosetotheskiareasaspossible.Ifthecouncildidmakeittowhere everyoneisdroppedoffatthetransitcenterswewouldnothaveanybusinessandthetownwouldthen loseallthetaxrevenueonthoseroomnights. #2.TheLHWCSkierDropoffworksaslongaseveryoneisawareofitandfollowstheprocedurefor courtesycars.ThisiseasytotelltheguestandIdonotseeabigproblemwiththat.Theideaofmaking itaonewayaccessandloopwouldbegreatasinitscurrentconditionitisnotefficient. #3.TheLHWCforshuttlesisnotaproblemexceptwiththeschedule.Iknowwecantrytodoitbut withtrafficandotheroutsideforcesshuttlesarenotgoingtobeontime.Extendingtheparkingspace downthesidewalkwouldbeaideathatIwouldsupporttohelpimprovethiscongestion. #4.HansenRoaddropoffisamustforustohave.Themainproblemwiththisareaisthatregularcars arebeingleftthereunattendedforalongperiodoftime.Thisisforcingthosewithashuttletodropoff onthecurbratherthanintheshuttlelane.Iwouldmakethisareaintoapermitonlydropoff.Iwould alsonotexcludeashuttlefromthearealikeoursprinter.Itactuallycancarrymorepassengersthanthe carssotherewouldbelesstrafficiswecanplacemorepeopleintotheonesprinter. #5.ForGoldenPeak,thedropoffloopisamuchmoreeffiecentareatodropoffvstheskierdropoff.

This item also includes discussion of off-cycle contribution funding requests. PRESENTER(S): Kathleen Halloran ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve or approve with amendments Ordinance No. 9, Series 2012 BACKGROUND: Please see attached memorandum STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve or approve with amendments Ordinance No. 9, Series 2012 ATTACHMENTS: 2nd supp 7/17/2012 TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Finance Department DATE: July 11, 2012 SUBJECT: 2012 Budget Amendment – Ordinance 9 I. SUMMARY Staff is requesting approval of Ordinance 9 upon first reading, the second budget supplemental appropriation this year. II. DISCUSSION Included in this supplemental discussion are three requests for funding outside of the town’s normal budget cycle, or “off-cycle contributions”. The purpose of this mid-year review is to provide an opportunity for organizations that have newly identified projects or unforeseen changes to their budgets to come forward all at the same time and for Council to provide consistent criteria and evaluations. Staff recommendations for these requests are attached on page 3, with budgetary impacts included below. General Fund Revenue projections have been increased by a total of $292,856. This includes an increase to sales tax totaling $1,100,000 with 61%, or $671,000 going to the General Fund. Sales tax collections are currently exceeding budget by 8.9% ($863,600), and are up 1.9% ($201,081) from prior year. The budget adjustment to revenue also includes a projected decrease in parking revenue of $586,000 based on reduced daily parking sales experienced this spring. Franchise Fees will also be reduced by a total of $75,000 ($16K due to an overpayment by Xcel Energy that will be adjusted in upcoming remittances to the town and $59K based on a decrease in year-to-date collections). Construction Permit revenue projections will be increased by $200,000 based on current collections. Other revenue adjustments relate to reimbursements directly offset by corresponding expenditures: $17,856 of wildfire deployment revenue offset by the staffing costs to send firefighters, $50,000 of library grant proceeds that will be used to offset technology enhancements to the library community room, and $15,000 in reimbursement for EverVail legal expenses. Requested expenditures increases totaling $312,774, of which $82,024 will be offset by the reimbursements mentioned above. Other increases relate to summer frontage road parking enforcement such as: additional hours of express bus services will require $10K in seasonal salary expense and $25,000 of heavy equipment charges for fuel and mileage put on the buses; $5,000 additional contracted service for parking enforcement (current budget is at $25K). With the opening of the new LionsHead Welcome Center, staff is requesting funds the Grand View management contract of $30,000 plus $5,000 of service provided prior to the contract period and a potential $5K in commissions. Another $30,000 is requested for estimated usage of the facility for free events (to cover set up and cleaning costs) with unused funds returned at year-end. Other operating expenses of the Transit and Welcome Centers such as building maintenance, utilities and cleaning contracts 8 - 1 - 1 7/17/2012 Town of Vail Page 2 were already included in the 2012 budget. The town continues to contract out inspections and due to the increase in construction projects staff is requesting an additional $21,600 to cover the related inspections. $25,000 is requested to cover the insurance deductible relating to a recent bus accident. Staff has recommended a total of $20,000 relating to the off-cycle grant requests (see page 3 for more details). In 2011 the town pledged a total of $30,000 toward summer air guarantees through the Eagle Air Alliance. The 2012 budget included the administration costs only ($5,100), but now staff is requesting the remaining $24,900 owed to the Air Alliance as this year’s guarantee has come due. The town was recently notified by the Vail Village Inn Phase V management company that we will owe an additional $4,250 this year in special assessment for the town-owned unit #34 due to legal fees incurred by the homeowners association. Another $25K is requested for the loading and delivery facility within Vail Village Inn as committed in the prior year. Capital Projects Fund The revenue budget will be adjusted for the Capital Projects Fund’s 39% share of the increase in sales tax revenue, estimated at $429,000. Construction Use Tax budget projections will also increase by $300,000 based on year to date collections. $50,000 will be transferred into the Capital Projects Fund from the General Fund to use Library grant dollars towards the Library renovation, and another $10,000 will be transferred from Dispatch Services Fund for the Radio Tower project mentioned below. Requested increases to expenditures total $605,000. They include an increase of $120,000 for the developer agreement approved July 3rd with Triumph Development for the municipal redevelopment, and another $30,000 (total project cost $60K) for the relocation of the radio communications tower, which is necessary due to the municipal site redevelopment. Dispatch Services is contributing $10,000 to offset the cost to the Capital Projects Fund. Another $140,000 is requested to relocate the recycling center. $100,000 is requested to be used toward plans and design of a renovation of the Main Vail Fire Station as approved by Council. Reconstruction of the Matterhorn Bridge requires an increased budget of $100,000, as approved by Council on July 3rd. The town owns three units within the Gore Range townhomes, and each unit has been assessed $10,000 (for total budget impact of $30,000) to be used for the reconstruction of decks, stairways and other exterior improvements. $35,000 is requested for the demolition of the LionsHead Information Booth anticipated this fall. Staff is requesting a transfer of funds between the Welcome Center project and the Guest Service Enhancement project for design services, media equipment and signage as approved by Council during the project scope discussions in 2011. This transfer between projects of $354,700 has no effect to expenditures and will better organize the project accounting. Dispatch Services Fund $250,000 is requested for a software update to the Computer- Aided Dispatch (CAD) system and Records Management System (RMS) and Mobile system (in-vehicle CAD access). The last upgrade of this system was in 2007, and it is critical to address problems with the current software that adversely affect our responders and to continue to provide quality public safety. Fund balance reserves are available to fund this project without additional charges to the participating agencies that have partially funded the reserves over several years for the purpose of capital improvements. Another $10,000 is requested to be used toward the relocation and upgrade of the Radio Tower (see Capital Projects above). Heavy Equipment Fund Budgeted revenue will be increased by $95,000 to reflect year to date collections from the sale of old equipment (originally budgeted to be sold in 2011). Budgeted revenue will also be increased by $80,000 in insurance reimbursement for repairs to a bus (repaired in-house) damaged in an accident. The insurance reimbursement will offset the cost of repairs. Staff is also requesting $90,000 for a type 6 fire brush truck, which will replace a type 7 fire vehicle we currently own. 8 - 1 - 2 7/17/2012 3 2012 Off-Cycle Contributions A. Highline Sports & Entertainment BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Highline is requesting a total of $100,000 to help fund an “A-List Headliner” concert as a part of the Vail 50th Anniversary celebration. The funding will contribute to the enhanced $650,000 total talent budget to incorporate an A-list headliner act for a concert to be held on Saturday, December 15th, 2012. This application for funding does not support Vail Snow Daze or Spring Back to Vail event budgets, but the plan is to increase investments in those events as well to maximize impact of the marketing message. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council consider information provided in the afternoon presentation by Highline Sports for this funding request. The town is currently contributing $453,000 to the Vail 50th Anniversary celebration (a combination of Council contributions, Vail Local Marketing District support and Commission on Special Events funding). Any additional funds would come from General Fund reserves. B. Eagle River Watershed Council (ERWC) BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The ERWC is requesting $15,000 for Water Quality Data Collection and Assessment program, funded by various entities and municipalities in the valley. The town has participated in this program for the past several years ($6,000 in 2010 and $6,500 in 2011). $7,500 was requested in 2012 but funding was not approved as a part of an overall budget constraint to $50,000 annually. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends $12,000 in funding, with the intent of funding the program without additional administrative charges. Staff supports funding this effort because this data collection has helped to identify the need for the now-urgent county-wide Water Quality Improvement Plan (WQIP). C. Team Transportation – Eagle County School District BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Team Transportation is requesting $2,000 to purchase merchandise for their Positive Behavior and Intervention Program. This program rewards children when they do the “right thing”, whether on the school bus or in the school or community. The District has not funded this program but supports the intent of it. The program has raised some donations from the Town of Gypsum and small businesses. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: While staff commends the creativity shown by Team Transportation in developing this program, it is not recommended for funding because it does not fit the criteria for off-cycle contribution requests and is not appropriate for town funding. D. Vail Historical DVD BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Vail Historical DVD is requesting $20,000 to produce an additional hour of historical material for the Vail documentary (out of a total estimated cost of $81,000). This would add onto the two-hour production currently funded ($150,000 from Vail Resorts, $25,000 from Town of Vail, along with other donors. This would provide an opportunity to capture Vail’s history completely and accurately. 8 - 1 - 3 7/17/2012 4 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends funding based on this unique opportunity to dig deeper into Vail’s history and document the contributions of our founders. E. Vail Mountain School (VMS) BACKGROUND INFORMATION: VMS is requesting an in-kind contribution of the use of five buses on September 16, during the 41st Annual VMS Home Tour, previously donated by Beaver Creek. Beaver Creek changed their policy to limit donations to within the resort limits after the town’s June 30th deadline. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff does not recommend funding this request based on limited return on investment for the town or town businesses and that it is not appropriate for town funding. 8 - 1 - 4 7/17/2012 20 1 2 20 1 2 Or i g i n a l 1 s t 2 0 1 2 2 n d P r o p o s e d Bu d g e t S u p p l e m e n t a l A m e n d e d S u p p l e m e n t a l A m e n d e d C o m m e n t s Re v e n u e Lo c a l T a x e s : 17 , 8 0 0 , 0 0 0 $ - $ 1 7 , 8 0 0 , 0 0 0 $ 1 , 1 0 0 , 0 0 0 $ 1 8 , 9 0 0 , 0 0 0 $ Ba s e d o n y e a r t o d a t e c o l l e c t i o n s S a l e s T a x S p l i t b / t G e n ' l F u n d & C a p i t a l F u n d 61 / 3 9 6 1 / 3 9 6 1 / 3 9 S a l e s T a x 10 , 8 5 9 , 0 0 0 $ - $ 1 0 , 8 5 9 , 0 0 0 $ 6 7 1 , 0 0 0 $ 1 1 , 5 3 0 , 0 0 0 $ P r o p e r t y a n d O w n e r s h i p 4 , 2 3 2 , 0 0 0 - 4 , 2 3 2 , 0 0 0 - 4 , 2 3 2 , 0 0 0 S k i L i f t T a x 3, 4 9 2 , 0 0 0 - 3 , 4 9 2 , 0 0 0 - 3 , 4 9 2 , 0 0 0 F r a n c h i s e F e e s , P e n a l t i e s , a n d O t h e r T a x e s 1 , 1 1 2, 7 5 3 - 1 , 1 1 2 , 7 5 3 ( 7 5 , 0 0 0 ) 1 , 0 3 7 , 7 5 3 Xc e l E n e r g y r e d u c i n g f u t u r e p a y m e n t s t o o f f s e t p r i o r o v e r p a y m e n t Li c e n s e s & P e r m i t s 95 5 , 0 0 0 - 9 5 5 , 0 0 0 2 0 0 , 0 0 0 1 , 1 5 5 , 0 0 0 Ba s e d o n y e a r t o d a t e c o l l e c t i o n s o f c o n s t r u c t i o n p er m i t s In t e r g o v e r n m e n t a l R e v e n u e 1, 9 1 1 , 2 5 0 - 1 , 9 1 1 , 2 5 0 - 1 , 9 1 1 , 2 5 0 Tr a n s p o r t a t i o n C e n t e r s 4 , 4 2 5 , 0 0 0 - 4 , 4 2 5 , 0 0 0 ( 5 8 6 , 0 0 0 ) 3 , 8 3 9 , 0 0 0 Ba s e d o n y e a r t o d a t e c o l l e c t i o n s i n p a r k i n g s t r u c t ur e s Ch a r g e s f o r S e r v i c e s 77 4 , 8 5 0 - 77 4 , 8 5 0 - 77 4 , 8 5 0 Fi n e s & F o r f e i t u r e s 32 5 , 0 0 0 - 3 2 5 , 0 0 0 - 3 2 5 , 0 0 0 Ea r n i n g s o n I n v e s t m e n t s 1 1 6 , 9 0 0 - 1 1 6 , 9 0 0 - 1 1 6 , 9 0 0 Re n t a l R e v e n u e 86 9 , 8 1 6 - 8 6 9 , 8 1 6 - 8 6 9 , 8 1 6 Mi s c e l l a n e o u s a n d P r o j e c t R e i m b u r s e m e n t s 2 0 7 , 0 0 0 2 5 , 0 0 0 2 3 2 , 0 0 0 8 2 , 8 5 6 3 1 4 , 8 5 6 Re i m b u r s e m e n t s f o r w i l d f i r e d e p l o y m e n t s a n d E v e r V a i l e x p e n s e s ;

Because the strategy has been ramped up to bring more people to the Town of Vail 8. Organization fiscal year-end: December 31 8 - 1 - 16 7/17/2012 9. Are your books audited? Reviewed by Keil & Associates, CPA 10. How will the contribution be used? The Town of Vail funding for this project will be leveraged towards the kick-off of events, PR and event activation programming to celebrate and promote Vail’s 50th Anniversary. This funding will contribute to the enhanced $650,000 total talent budget to incorporate an A-list headliner act which will additionally drive National and Front Range traffic to Vail for this world-class event. A comprehensive marketing platform will be placed against this event as a whole and surrounding the headliner concert on Saturday, December 15th, 2012. The entire Vail’s 50th Celebration not only allows our community and guests to commemorate Vail’s strong and spirited heritage, but also to celebrate where we are today, underscore our world-class modern brand, and create a long lasting allegiance for years to come. The funds requested will contribute to the talent booking specifically, with the successful production and implementation of this evening of A-list entertainment and drive additional traffic and overnight stays in Vail. 11. How does your request support item 1C of the contribution policy? The Town Council will evaluate the various proposals based on their direct benefit to the entire community of Vail, fulfillment of the town’s mission, and how this contribution will affect our resort community’s future health. The Town Council’s mission statement reads: In order to be the premier mountain resort community, we’re committed to providing citizens and guests with a superior level of environmentally -sensitive services and an abundance of recreational, educational, and cultural opportunities. Vail’s 50th Anniversary year will directly benefit the entire community of Vail and help to carry out the Town Council’s mission in a number of areas. Celebrating the past 50 years of Vail will give citizens and guests the opportunity to revisit and relive the town’s roots through numerous educational, recreational and cultural activations throughout the year. We will capture and honor the spirit of Vail’s founding in an authentic manner, incorporate residents and guests that have been involved within our community over the years and reaffirm the values that were inherent in the Spirit of Vail 50 years ago and are still ever present today. The event elements are geared towards the resort guest and will uphold to the Vail standard. 12. Who currently funds your organization (other governments, private donations, user fees, etc.)? Vail Resorts, corporate sponsors and partners. Although this application for funding does not support Vail Snow Daze or Spring Back to Vail event budgets, the object is to affectively leverage these iconic event assets and to repurpose their marketing message to directly support Vail’s 50 Anniversary. In doing so in the absence of incremental investments there would be a significant dilution effect. 13. Organization's mission statement: To foster a culture in which Highline team members are challenged to excel in providing all customers with exceptional service, extensive knowledge and an unwavering commitment 8 - 1 - 17 7/17/2012 to ethical excellence… not only to complete client satisfaction- but beyond all expectations! 50th Anniversary Mission Statement: Vail Mountain opened for business on December 15, 1962. The mountain, town and community will be partnering in a celebration of the 50th anniversary on December 15, 2012. The notion of Vail’s founding 50 years ago came out of the vision inherent in the spirit of Vail’s founders. This represents the current day expression of Vail, and remains an important underpinning of today’s powerful Vail brand for both summer and winter. Vail’s legacy will be presented in a manner such that it is protected and fostered for future generations to come. A bold, but not arrogant statement of Vail’s leadership – culturally, physically and emotionally. The 50th Anniversary celebration will be shared by guests; current and past, historical figures, town and mountain personnel, merchants, as well as the extended Vail Community and its stakeholders. 8 - 1 - 18 7/17/2012 APPLICATION FOR TOWN OF VAIL FUNDING Balance Sheet Highline Sports & Entertainment, Inc.
