Establish a culture of sustainability to our community and our guests. 6.

Design a self-sustaining program in which the ownership of the recycling process is transferred to the business owners/building management. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: In order for the Vail Town Council to achieve the adopted goal of 25% waste diversion on a community level, improvements to current commercial recycling practices are needed. Several options to move forward are outlined in Attachment C. ATTACHMENTS: Vail Village Recycling Pilot Memo Attachment A Survey Results Attachment B Vail Honeywagon Letter Attachment C Recycling Options 1/8/2013 TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Community Development Department DATE: January 8, 2013 SUBJECT: Vail Village Recycling Pilot Project Summary I. PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide a summary of the results of the four month recycling pilot project in Vail Village, beginning mid-August, 2012 at the Red Lion Building, which served the following commercial businesses: Big Bear Bistro, Shakedown Street, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Red Lion, Vail Gear and Whiskey Jacks. The project was intended to meet the following objectives: 1. Determine if it is possible to overcome barriers to commercial recycling through a voluntary program. 2. Increase recycling volume, divert waste from the Eagle County Landfill and into the Eagle County Materials Recovery Facility (turning recyclables into a valuable commodity). 3. Determine if recycling is possible in a key Village core building with creative strategies, proper infrastructure, service and training. 4. Identify unforeseen or unintended consequences. 5. Establish a culture of sustainability to our community and our guests. 6. Design a self-sustaining program in which the ownership of the recycling process is transferred to the business owners/building management. II. BACKGROUND Vail Town Council Waste Diversion Goal Environmental Sustainability Strategic Plan Waste Diversion Goal (adopted January, 2009): Reduce the amount of Town of Vail landfill contributions by 10% within 5 years (2013) and 25% within 10 years (2019). Where are we now? As an organization, the Town of Vail has increased its diversion rate by roughly 20% by incorporating a municipal food and landscape waste composting program, and by recycling steel and metal. However, as a community, Vail’s diversion rate is estimated to be quite low, at 10% residential and up to 15% for Vail Village, according to the 2012 Commercial Waste Diversion Study. West and East Vail commercial diversion rates are not known at this time. At the conclusion of the Town of Vail 2012 Commercial Waste Diversion Study on May 5, 2012, Council instructed staff to develop a Vail Village recycling pilot project at a large-volume building without recycling service to ensure the largest impact. During ski season, the Red Lion alone produces 2,500 beer bottles per 1/8/2013 Town of Vail Page 2 day. Building-wide, there was a 5% participation rate in recycling (only 2 businesses actively recycled cardboard and paper) before the pilot. Are Changes to Current Recycling Practices Needed? The Town of Vail’s adopted environmental policy statement: “The Town of Vail shall serve as a nationally recognized leader in sustainability through a commitment to community partnerships and balanced stewardship of human, financial and environmental resources in policy and daily operations”, illustrates the level of Vail’s commitment to resource efficiency. Recycling is a basic environmental practice, however Colorado falls below the national average when it comes to waste diversion. In 2010, Colorado had a waste diversion rate of 20.5%, which is equivalent to roughly a third of a ton per person, and is below the national diversion rate of 34%1. Vail falls below the State average and well below the national average. Many Colorado communities such as Telluride, Mountain Village, Aspen, Fort Collins, Louisville, Golden and Durango have ordinances that require recycling to be included in trash service. The Vail Guest Vail’s guests, according to 2010 Economic Development Office data, are between the ages of 25-35, earning upwards of $100,000 per year, and traveling from communities where recycling is mandated. According to the 2010 Tri-County Waste Diversion Report guest survey, 77% of respondents recycle at home, and 76% felt it is “very important” that they recycle while on vacation (Attachment A). While this survey data includes guests traveling to Pitkin and Garfield Counties as well as Eagle, recycling appears to be expected in destination resorts. Internationally, recycling is considered standard practice, particularly in Europe. III. PILOT PROJECT STRATEGY Through the 2012 Commercial Recycling Study, the Red Lion building in Vail Village was identified as the ideal location for the recycling pilot project due to the high volume and potential for landfill diversion, as well as commitment to sustainability by the waste hauler and business staff. Noted barriers in this particular building included the following: 1. High volume and space constraints 2. Lack of frequent pickups at the common trash area connected to the building 3. Perception of added workload, takes too much staff time 4. Cost of hauling 5. Lack of training 6. Loading and delivery schedules 7. Noise associated with picking up/dumping glass and additional trucks IV. PILOT PROJECT RESULTS Success of the pilot project was based upon a percentage of waste diverted from the landfill. Results are as follows: 1 Boulder Leads in Recycling, but Colorado is Catching On (2012) The Boulder Stand. http://www.theboulderstand.org/2011/12/26/boulder-leads-in-recycling-but-colorado-is-catching-on/ 1/8/2013 Town of Vail Page 3 Participation  100% of Red Lion business participated in the pilot program.  Given the proper infrastructure and facilities, people generally want to recycle. According to participating business staff, the program is working “too well”, meaning recycling volumes are difficult to keep up with. The staff is well-trained and remains excited about the project. Volume and Costs  The Town of Vail has invested $12,750, which accounts for 85 individual pickups, of a five-yard single stream recycling dumpster, which equals 15,045 lbs., or 7.5 tons. This volume equates to 45% of the total volume of commingled and cardboard materials collected at the Community Recycling Drop Off Center over the same four-month time frame (August-November 2012). In other words, one building in Vail Village accounts for nearly half of the recycling volume of the total amount from the community at-large.  In 2009, 17,000 tons of recyclables were landfilled2. If the material at the Red Lion Building is landfilled, in one year the Town will have contributed 180,000 lbs. or 90 tons of recyclables to the landfill. At this rate, with seven buildings, Bridge Street alone could account for nearly 4% of landfilled recyclables.  With only one building participating, recycling at $150 per container is cost prohibitive without a reduction in trash hauling bills. Vail Honeywagon states that this adjustment will be applied to future trash bills for the Red Lion Building Association.  Due to the high cost of recycling vs. trash ($4500/month paid by the Town vs. $1,750/month paid by the Association), the pilot program has ended. Process  To make the process convenient and accommodate space constraints, one trash dumpster was converted to a five-yard single stream recycling container, which was transported to Denver.  Daily pickup was required due to overwhelming volume. In the case that the recycling container was full, materials were discarded in the trash dumpster.  Loading and delivery times on Bridge Street create a small window of time to pick up a large volume of material. V. NEXT STEPS Despite several successes, key barriers to recycling (e.g. space constraints, frequency of pickup, sustainability, etc.) remain and may be addressed through implementation of several of the options in Attachment C. At the direction of the Vail Town Council, Staff will explore one or more of the options. VI. ATTACHMENTS A. 2010 Tri-County Waste Diversion Report Guest Survey Results B.

The program ran from late July until December 1st 2012 and focused on the Red Lion Building. The program was a success through the efforts of the two of you, Vail Honeywagon and the participating businesses. James Freese at the Red Lion was particularly instrumental. So what did we find out: 1. If there is a willingness, then yes employees will make the extra effort to recycle 2. there needs to be a coordinator or “quarterback” to rally the troops on how to recycle and why 3. some business owners will not support a program, period 4. lack of space to accommodate recycle and trash containers is a primary barrier 5. the village core delivery time restrictions can be an issue ( and it would not be acceptable to residents in the core to service early in the morning and wake them up) The next step will be to approach other business in the area to try and establish a viable recycle route. We have already generated some business owners who will participate but want to wait until it is a “little slower” to implement a new program. Recycling in Vail Village and Lionshead, as a whole, is and has been a success. Most buildings have a program. The village core has challenges that we hope to work through in the next few months Thanks for supporting recycling Matt Donovan Owner 1/8/2013 ATTACHMENT C .

This report will be updated prior to the January 8th Town Council meeting. Use Tax Use tax collections as of December 31, 2012 total $1,222,134 compared with $739,892 at this time last year, up 65%. The amended budget of $1.2 million has been met. Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) RETT collections through December 31 total $5,135,107 up 16.6% from this time last year. The annual budget of $3.8 million has been exceeded. Of current collections, approximately $1,163,728 or 23% is from major redevelopment projects including Arrabelle, Four Seasons, Landmark, Manor Vail, Mountain View, Ritz Carlton Residences, Solaris, and The Sebastian. Collections not related to major redevelopment projects currently total $3,971,299 up 45.5% from this time last year. Parking Revenue Season year-to-date (Nov/Dec ’12) Pass sales for November/December total $493,140, down 3.8% compared to November/December 2011. Daily sales in the parking structures for November/December are currently running 12% behind last year, however this data is only through December 25th. Summary Across all funds, total revenue of $44.6 million is up 1.6% from budget and slightly down (-0.1%) from prior year (a decrease in property tax collections and parking revenue has been offset by sales tax performance). These numbers do not include December sales tax collections. 1/8/2013 VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO MEETING DATE: January 8, 2013 ITEM/TOPIC: Matters from Mayor and Council 1/8/2013 VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO MEETING DATE: January 8, 2013 ITEM/TOPIC: Adjournment (4:30 p.m.) NOTE: UPCOMING MEETING START TIMES BELOW (ALL ARE APPROXIMATE DATES AND TIMES AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE) -------------------- THE NEXT REGULAR VAIL TOWN COUNCIL REGULAR WORK SESSION WILL BEGIN AT APPROXIMATELY 12:30 P.M.
