Staff members: Stan Zemler, Town Manager

_________________________________________________________________
The first item on the agenda was the Town Manager’s Report. Town Manager, Stan
Zemler reminded council that there will be a Town Council Special Meeting on
November 12, 2013, at 1:00 p.m. to swear in the newly elected council members.
Zemler announced that Vail will host a time trial during the 2014 Pro Challenge Cycling
competition on a Saturday in August. Additionally, Zemler explained to council that staff
will be looking into the town’s current vendor contracts to confirm vendors are not
conducting nor promoting their business while conducting business for the town.
Zemler said he would report back to council their findings. Daly asked if the town had a
conflict of interest clause that applies to the town’s employees. Town Attorney Matt
Mire said he would look into the personnel manual.
The second item on the agenda was the Consent Agenda:
1) Approval of the October 1 and October 15 Town Council Meeting Minutes.
Moffet made a motion to approve the October 1 Town Council meeting
minutes as presented, with a second from Foley. The motion passed
unanimously (7-0). Moffet made a motion to approve the October 15Town
Council meeting minutes as presented with a second from Foley. The motion
passed unanimously (7-0).
2) Council letter of support for the mountain recreation enhancement. Daly
asked council if anyone had a comment or concern regarding the letter in
their packets addressed to the Forest Service in support of Vail Resorts and
their mountain enhancement efforts and council did not have one. Daly then
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 5, 2013 Page 2
asked council if they supported the letter and wish to direct staff to send it to
the Forest Service on their behalf and all council members agreed.
The third item on the agenda was to appoint one member to the Local Licensing
Authority (LLA). Moffet made a motion to appoint Tom Saalfeld as a member to the
LLA, with a second from Tjossem. Daly stated the council interviewed Saalfeld during
the work session and there was only one qualified applicant. The motion passed
unanimously (7-0). Foley thanked Tom Scola for applying to be a member of the LLA.
Foley stated Scola was not a town resident and therefor he did not meet the board
requirements.
The fourth item on the agenda was a RAMP Update on the Simba Run underpass
project. Town Engineer Tom Kassmel reminded council that earlier this summer council
directed staff to apply to the Colorado Department of Transportation (“CDOT”) with
three projects for Responsible Acceleration of Maintenance and Partnership (RAMP)
funding. Those RAMP projects included the Simba Run Underpass, the Frontage Road
Improvements and the East Vail Water Quality Improvements. Kassmel said on
October 18th the Simba Run Underpass project was the only project chosen to receive
RAMP funding. CDOT had awarded $14.6 million toward the project with the remaining
$6.2 million to be funded by the town for a total of $20.8 million. A joint feasibility study
between CDOT and the Town of Vail known as a Planning and Environmental Linkage
(PEL) report had already begun to understand the project’s impacts. Kassmel stated
now since there is funding, the next phase will be design and then construction with a
completion date in the year 2017. Kassmel said as a part of the RAMP funding process
the town is required to submit a commitment letter with an updated scope, a schedule
and construction estimate by January 6, 2014, to CDOT. The Project Team will be
updating these items and will present the final commitment letter to the town council in
December. Daly asked that with the commitment letter, staff provide suggestions of
where the portion of the town’s funding will come from. Kassmel said the town’s portion
will be funded with Tax Increment Financing (TIF) dollars. Daly asked if any council
members had questions concerning this matter. Donovan asked what happens now
with the other two projects that are not being funded by RAMP, specifically the East Vail
Water Quality Improvements. Kassmel said the town would need to look for other
outside funding and for other opportunities. Daly asked Kassmel if the project can get
completed in CDOT’s time requirements and Kassmel answered this will be a process
that staff will keep council informed and updated on the project’s process and also
where the town is within the time constraints. Daly wanted to confirm that CDOT could
not pull funding and Kassmel confirmed CDOT is as committed as the town. Kassmel
added the project will run consistent with CDOT’s Context Sensitive Solutions (CSS)
process and that as a part of this process, the town is required to set up a Project
Leadership Team (PLT). The PLT is a non-decision making group who ensures the
project stays on task, is a public and open process, and meets the goals, the purpose’s
and the need of the project. Town staff and CDOT have discussed possible candidates
and suggest the following members: Pam Brandmeyer (Town of Vail Assistant Town
Manager); George Ruther (Town of Vail Director of Community Development); Jeff
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 5, 2013 Page 3
Babb (Director of Vail Mountain Operations); Rob Levine (Antlers General Manager,
Vail Economic Advisory Committee); Don Maclachlan (General Manager, Cascade
Condominiums/Destination Hotels); Laura Mullen (West Vail Liquor Mart, Owner);
Steve Olson (CDOT – Region 3 Program Engineer); Mike Vanderhoof (CDOT – Region
3 Planning and Environmental Manager); and Zane Znamenacek (CDOT – Region 3
Traffic and Safety Program Engineer). Donovan said this is a great list and would
encourage staff to look for outside people to join this board because this would promote
new leadership in the community. Daly agreed and also stated he was not sure if Ruther
being on this team was a good use of Ruther’s time. Zemler suggested changing that
team member to Ruther or his designee. Daly thanked Kassmel for his update.
The fifth item on the agenda was first reading of Ordinance No. 16, Series of 2013, An
Ordinance Amending Section 13-7-8 of the Vail Town Code Regarding Recovery of
Costs in Enforcement Actions and Setting Forth Details in Regard Thereto. Town
Attorney, Matt Mire reviewed the ordinance with council and stated the current code
does not allow for the town to currently recover its costs when there is a zoning
enforcement action. Mire went onto say that this ordinance would allow the town to
recover its attorney’s fees from litigation of a zoning action. Rogers made a motion to
approve Ordinance No. 16, series of 2013, as read, with a second from Kurz. Daly
asked if there was any further council discussion. Donovan confirmed this was to just
clean up the code and Mire agreed. Daly opened it up to public discussion and there
was no public comment. The motion passed unanimously (7-0).
The sixth item on the agenda was the second reading of Ordinance No. 13, Series of
2013, an ordinance repealing and reenacting the approved development plan for Phase
IV of Special Development District No. 6, Vail Village Inn, pursuant to Section 12-9A-10,
Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for an increase in the allowable
gross residential floor area (GRFA), 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. Chief of Planning Warren Campbell stated on October 15, 2013, the council
approved Ordinance No. 13 upon first reading by a vote of 6-1. There have been no
changes to this ordinance since its approval and asked if Council had any questions
and there were none. Daly asked if there was any public comment and there was none.
Rogers made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 13, Series of 2013, on second
reading with a second from Kurz. Moffet stated he would again be voting against this
ordinance based on the same reason as given during the first reading last month. The
motion passed 6-1 (Moffet opposed).
The seventh item on the agenda was Resolution No. 14, Series of 2013, a resolution
adopting the 2013 Gerald R. Ford Park Master Plan, and setting forth details in regard
thereto. Community Development Director, George Ruther suggested to council to
continue the review of the draft Gerald R. Ford Park Master plan from where they
stopped during the work session, which was goal 2 of the 64 page document. Tjossem
thought Objective 2.3’s, Policy Statement 1, conflicted with Action Step 2.3.4. Daly
suggested deleting Action Step 2.3.4: “In conjunction with the Vail Valley Foundation,
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 5, 2013 Page 4
evaluate the feasibility of winterizing the Amphitheater to allow for use of the venue
during winter months” from the draft master plan. Daly went onto suggest that the word
“primary” be changed to “principal” in Policy Statement 1: “Maintain the Ford
Amphitheater as the primary summer- time performing arts facility in the Town of Vail.”
All the council members agreed. Daly suggested in Action Step 2.5.3: “Reduce the
parking areas around the Nature Center building by reclaiming these areas to a natural
landscape condition” should replace the word “reduce” to “eliminate.” All members
agreed to that suggestion. Daly asked that Policy Statement 2: “Uses in the Lower
Bench shall operate in a manner that limits vehicular traffic to the greatest extent
possible. Vehicular access to the Lower Bench of the Park should be limited to:
maintenance; delivery of goods or materials too large or too heavy to be carried by non-
motorized means; access for people with limited mobility; special transportation; and
emergency services” should have language added stating “access for people with
limited mobility will be generally provided access by golf cart.” Donovan asked what
“special transportation” meant on page 26. Tom Braun, with Braun Associates, stated
he did not know and suggested removing that language from the master plan.
Donovan suggested on page 27 in Policy Statement 4: “Maintain a central
trash/dumpster facility within the Parking/Transit Sub-Area and mandate all Park
leaseholders use the central facility” to add the word “recycle” after dumpster. Tjossem
agreed with Donovan. Rogers asked the words “To foster” on page 32, Objective 5.3,
read “Foster a spirit of cooperation between all leaseholders within the Park regarding
their use of the Park and how to collectively use and manage the Park for the benefit of
all.” Rogers said on pages 33 and 34, Policy Statement 1 and Policy Statement 2
conflict with each other. Braun agreed and stated council’s previous conversation
ended at Goal #6 and he and Ruther are requesting direction from council. Donovan
suggested the removal of Policy Statement 2 from the master plan and Rogers felt both
policy statements can be removed from the master plan. Ruther said Goal #6 talks
about how the town is going to implement the master plan and removing this goal in its
entirety may not be beneficial in the future. Tjossem suggested taking Objective 6.1
and make it Objective 5.4, and strike Objective 6.2 and eliminating Goal #6. Braun
asked council if they are in agreement to change Objective 6.1 to Objective 5.4;
eliminate Objective 6.2; and change the Action Steps 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 to 5.1.4 and 5.1.5.
Council agreed to those changes. Tjossem and Rogers requested additional language
be added on page 47 making it clear that the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens sub area
description includes the area West Betty Ford Way just west of the Children’s
Playground, which is not considered on the lower bench. On page 42, Donovan
requested the last sentence in the first full paragraph that says “By way of example, the
removal of the two courts adjacent to the Frontage Road and the Athletic Field
concession building would not only allow for a much improved arrival sequence for the
pedestrians, but could also provide land for new facilities” be removed. All the council
members agreed. Council also agreed to the removal of the last two sentences on
page 42 stating “As with the parking lot area, the idea of constructing structured parking
below the athletic fields has been discussed in the past. It is expected that if and when
this idea is pursued, an initial step would be to evaluate implications to the overall goals
for the Park and if necessary initiate amendments to the Ford Park Master Plan.”
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 5, 2013 Page 5
Tjossem would like the word “lower” removed from the reference “Lower Commons” and
it just be called the “Commons.” The last paragraph on page 43, council would like the
first portion of that first sentence “With the exception of very minor encroachments from
landscape improvements, lighting, seating and other similar features associated with
improvements planned for Betty Ford Way” be removed and the sentence to start with
“The open turf area should not be reduced in size and no buildings or structures should
be permitted in this area.” Council reviewed up to page 52 of the draft master plan and
agreed to pick up the conversation on this page at the meeting on November 19. Daly
opened it to public comment. Nicola Ripley, director of Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, was
frustrated with how long this process has taken and is concerned a new council will
make the process take longer if the current council delays their vote. Tjossem
requested council to continue with the remaining 9 pages of the master plan and get
finished with reviewing the plan. Council agreed to finish the public comment and then
return to the discussion of the remaining 9 pages. Jim Lamont of Vail Homeowners
Association expressed concern regarding parking at Ford Park and the Soccer Field.
Jack Hunn of Hunn Consulting would like the language concerning the “3000 square
footage” and suggest adding the wording “useable 3000 square footage.” With no more
comments from the public, the council returned to the master plan and discussion on
page 52. Moffet suggested on page 60 to remove Improvement #8 in its entirety and all
council members agreed. Daly suggested also the removal of Improvement #10 on
page 61 and all council members also agreed to that removal. Daly opened the
discussion to public comment. Lamont would like Improvement #10 to stay in the plan.
Daly asked if there was any more discussion and there wasn’t any from the public or the
council. Moffet made a motion to table the vote on Resolution No. 14, Series of 2013,
to the next council meeting on November 19, with a second from Tjossem. The motion
passed unanimously (7-0).
The eighth item on the agenda was recognition of Kerry Donovan and Kevin Foley’s
service as Town Council members. Daly stated the current council has worked well
with each other and have learned to respect each other’s opinion. Daly stated Donovan
brought youth to the council and encouraged people to vote for Donovan as the area’s
State Representative. Daly stated Foley exemplifies community service in Vail with his
14 year involvement on council. Foley has contributed to making this community a
wonderful place to live and work.
The ninth item on the agenda was Citizens Participation. Diane Johnson from Eagle
River Water & Sanitation District reminded council and citizens that starting on
November 15 there will be smoke testing. Mike Cacioppo, Eagle County resident
expressed his anger and frustration with the town’s police department with a request he
has made to review video footage. Zemler stated the town is currently looking into
Cacioppo's request and his accusation that a crime was committed when his
newspapers disappeared from the hallway. Jonathan Levine of Hummers of Vail
expressed his frustration with council members and staff not responding to his emails
regarding the transportation ordinance. Daly offered to sit down with Levine and
discuss his concerns in depth at a later date. Ceil Folz of the Vail Valley Foundation
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 5, 2013 Page 6
offered thanks to council members Donovan and Foley for their services. Foley offered
condolences to the family of Allen Christensen, who recently passed away. There were
no further comments from citizens.
The tenth item in the agenda is the Gerald R. Ford Park Amphitheater Operations Plan.
Community Development Director George Ruther reviewed the materials in the council
packets and reminded them of the reasons for requesting the Operations Plan, such as
to ensure adequate public access to the lobby space when not in use by the Vail Valley
Foundation (“VVF”); the management of the proposed use does not unnecessarily
conflict with the other stakeholders in Ford Park; reasonable public access and
availability of the restroom facilities proposed in the new amphitheater addition; and the
proposed use operated in conjunction with the amphitheater. On October 15, 2013, the
council reviewed the draft Operations Plan for the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater lobby.
As a result of their review, the council tabled the item to the November 5th town council
meeting and asked that certain changes be made to the Operations Plan and that
certain questions be answered. The revised Operations Plan is the VVF’s response to
the changes and questions. Daly asked if any council members had any questions for
Ruther and there were none. Daly asked if the VVF had any comments. Jack Hunn
with Hunn Consulting said the VVF reviewed the restroom facilities plans with council
and the VVF found an opportunity to take a space which was going to be used for
storage and turn that space into two ADA accessible restrooms in the plaza. Daly
asked if council had any questions for VVF. Donovan wanted language added
clarifying operating hours “throughout the year.” Foley made a motion to approve the
Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater Operation Plan, with a second from Rogers and Kurz.
The motion passed unanimously (7-0).
The eleventh on the agenda is Adjournment. There being no further business, Foley
made a motion to adjourn with a second by Donovan. The motion passed and council
adjourned at 7:15 p.m.
Respectfully Submitted,

The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation. Alison Wadey, the director of
the Vail Chamber, spoke to council about a town-wide promotional event the chamber
was hosting called Merry in the Mountains. The event is on December 4th and Wadey
said the event is to encourage Eagle County residents to shop locally by businesses
providing local discounts. Joe Staufer, a Vail resident, expressed his concerns to

encouraged everyone to go online and donate by December 10. Moffet

The third item on the agenda was the Town Manager’s Report. Town Manager Stan
Zemler reminded council there will be two half day retreats prior to the council work
sessions on December 3 and December 10 from 8:00 to 1:00 at The Grand View,
located at the top of the Lionshead parking structure.
The fourth item on the agenda was the Castle Peak Care Community Funding
Request. Lisa Pease spoke to council about the senior care facility that was being built
in Eagle Ranch in the town of Eagle. Pease provided a brief history of the project
stating that in 2009, the Eagle County Commissioners discussed the lack of senior
services in Eagle County. In 2013, the county purchased five acres in Eagle Ranch and
chose the nonprofit organization Augustana Care to develop and own the care
community. The county, Augustana Care and volunteers have been on a $4.4 million
dollar capital campaign to construct and equip the senior care facility by traveling to all
the Eagle County communities to request assistance with funding. Pease said the care
community will be designed to serve people at all economic levels and when fully
occupied, it is expected to serve more than 110 people annually. It will also provide
approximately 100 new jobs during construction and 65 permanent jobs when
operating. The 62,000 square foot complex will include 20 assisted living rental
apartments, 22 skilled nursing private units, 12 memory care private suites and 10
transitional care private suites. The campus amenities will include common dining
areas, multi-use activity spaces, a gym, therapy rooms and lounge areas. Pease asked
council for a $200,000 donation, stating other towns throughout the county have given
about $200,000 each. Daly asked about the project’s financial structure, their debt
levels and operating guarantees. Pease stated the total project cost is $21,824,000;
$12,024,000 will be funded by a USDA rural development loan; there is $4,400,000
Eagle County secondary subordinated debt and $1,000,000 Augustana Care secondary
debt. Both will be repaid from surplus funds after the project has sufficient reserves.
Also a $4,400,000 Augustana Care capital campaign will raise funds to cover the
funding gap. Daily asked if council had any questions. Chapin asked how many
facilities are currently in the area. Pease responded there are facilities in Glenwood
Springs, Carbondale, Rifle, Steamboat Springs, Grand Junction and the Front Range.
Daly asked why the communities throughout the county are being asked for funding as
opposed to the county coming up with the remaining funding needed for the project.
Kathy Chandler-Henry, an Eagle County Commissioner, stated the care facility benefits
all Eagle County communities. Chandler-Henry stated the CSU impact study shows the
economic impact of residents who are 65+ leaving the county has estimated a loss of
$43 million per year between their spending and the sales of their assets. Since there
were no further comments from the council, Daily asked for public comment. Dr. Tom
Steinberg expressed his support and recommended council contribute more than the
requested $200,000. Dr. Steinberg additionally added that Vail resident Merv Lapin is
personally contributing $250,000 towards the project and the town should be able to
12/3/2013

contribute more than a private resident. Kaye Ferry, a Vail resident, suggested the town
contribute $287,000 to meet the project’s half way point. Robert Schilling asked Pease
what the care community residential financial makeup looks like. Pease answered the
financial look will be both private pay and Medicare. Kurz asked if county residents will
have preference. Pease answered no because of the federal funding. Rogers made a
motion to donate $300,000 to be paid over a three year period. Bugby asked if Rogers
would amend her motion to pay the $300,000 over 5 years in $60,000 increments.
Rogers agreed and amended her motion, with a second from Bugby. Daily stated he
was comfortable with $200,000 but not $300,000. Moffet agreed with Daly and also
requested the county work with the town on affordable housing. Bruno was also
agreeable to the $200,000 contribution. Daly asked for a vote to be taken on the
current motion for $300,000 to be given over a 5 year period in increments of $60,000
and the motion failed 2-5 (Daly, Kurz, Moffet, Chapin and Bruno opposed). Moffet
made a motion for the town to make a onetime contribution of $200,000 to the
Augustana Care Facility, with a second from Kurz. The motion passed unanimously, 7-
0.
The fifth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013,
An Ordinance Amending Section 12-21-2, 12-21,11 and 12-21-14 of the Vail Town
Code Regarding hazard regulations and setting forth details in regard thereto. Town
Engineer, Tom Kassmel explained to council that the State of Colorado had adopted
higher standards for floodplain management. The major changes to the previous
requirements included provisions to critical facilities and floodway surcharge criteria.
Kassmel stated the state has given communities until January 14, 2014, to adopt local
regulations consistent with the new standards in order to remain in good standing in the
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and be eligible for grant funding through the
Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB). Daly asked if council had any questions
for Kassmel. Moffet asked if there are any impacts to homeowners and Kassmel said
no there wasn’t. Daily requested a more detailed presentation to include a floodplain
map for council to review at the second reading of this ordinance. Daly asked if there
was any public comment and there was none. Moffet made a motion to approve
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013, on first reading, with a second from Rogers. The
motion passed unanimously, 7-0.
The sixth item on the agenda was the first reading of Ordinance No. 20, Series of 2013,
an ordinance providing for the levy assessment and collection of town property taxes
due for the 2013 tax year and payable in the 2014 fiscal year. Kathleen Halloran, the
Assistant Finance Director, explained to council this ordinance authorizes the collection
of property taxes in 2014 based upon 2013 assessed valuations of property within the
town’s boundaries. Eagle County is responsible for assessing values and for collecting
property taxes on the town’s behalf. The town is required by Colorado state law to
certify the mil levy by December 15 of each year. The ordinance is based on
preliminary assessed valuations from the county. The town’s base mil levy is 4.69 mils
and the abatement levy is .015 mils. Abatement results when a taxpayer protests an
assessed valuation after the normal protest period and is refunded a portion of the tax
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 19, 2013 Page 4
already due or paid. The abatement mil levy allows the town to recoup the refunded
amount. This abatement levy of .015 mils equates to an additional $1.19 per year for a
$1 million home and $4.35 per year for $1 million commercial property. The property
tax authorized by the attached ordinance will generate $4.3 million in revenue in 2014,
representing approximately 8% of the town’s total revenue. The estimated total net
assessed valuation for 2014 is an increase of 7.4% from the prior year’s assessed
valuation. Halloran will have updated numbers from the county by second reading.
Moffet made a motion to pass Ordinance No. 20, Series of 2013, on first reading, with a
second from Kurz. The motion passed unanimously, 7-0.
The seventh item on the agenda was the presentation on the Timber Ridge
Redevelopment project. Community Development Director George Ruther provided
council with a summary of the proposed redevelopment of the eastern one-half of the
Timber Ridge Village Apartments, which are located at 1280 North Frontage Road.
Ruther explained a summary presentation of the redevelopment proposal was required
pursuant to the terms outlined in the Pre-Development Agreement, executed by and
between the Town of Vail and Gorman and Company. Ruther said council instructed
staff to enter into discussions with Jen Wright and Gary Gorman on the redevelopment
of Timber Ridge. All parties agreed that an RFP process was not needed as that
process had failed to achieve the town’s objectives on three previous occasions.
Ruther said a “bottom up” approach based upon carrying capacity of the site had been
used to determine development potential which had resulted in a project that is
financially feasible and can be constructed unlike the previous three attempts. The
development will consist of four, three-story tall buildings containing at least 113
dwelling units. At least 70% shall be deed restricted pursuant to zoning requirements.
Ruther said there will be eighty-four (84) two bedroom units ranging in size from 870
square feet to 933 square feet and twenty-nine (29) one bedroom units ranging in size
from 597 square feet to 633 square feet. Each unit will be provided with its own
entrance off a shared exterior stairwell and with be equipped with a washer and dryer,
gas furnace, energy star rated kitchen appliances and a 360 cubic foot storage closet
(5’x8’x9’). There will be 153 surface parking spaces total for 1 parking space per one
bedroom unit and 1.47 parking spaces per two bedroom unit. Ruther stated the town is
obligated to mitigate rockfall hazard and the developer is obligated to pay for Frontage
Road turn lane improvements. There have been initial pre-application meetings with
the town fire department and the Public Works Department and the CDOT application
and meetings are pending. The development application is required to be submitted by
November 25, 2013, and the final Planning and Environmental Commission meeting is
on December 16, 2013. Ruther said construction could start by late spring 2014.
Rogers inquired why there was no information provided regarding a fourth story and an
elevator, which council requested staff to provide at this presentation.
Jenn Wright of the development team explained the rationale and efficiencies for
buildings that are three stories compared to four stories. Wright also talked to council
about his previous development experience in the county, which included Mountain
Star, Eagle Ranch and the “Ruins.” Wright also stated the development is geared
around year around employees and what people can afford. Bugby stated parking
12/3/2013
Town Council Meeting Minutes of November 19, 2013 Page 5
makes the property desirable and the current parking proposal of 1.3 spaces per unit
would be a problem. Moffet made a motion to instruct the Town Manager to sign the
development application, on behalf of the Town of Vail, to allow the project, as
proposed, to proceed through the town’s development review process, with a second
from Kurz. Daly asked if there was any public comment. Jim Lamont, Vail
Homeowners Association asked about the rockfall mitigation that would be required.
Ruther said there are three solutions: one to remove the hazard from the hillside, install
rock wire mesh, or to drill into the rock and physically pin it into the hillside. Since there
were no further comments from the public, Daly asked if council had anymore
comments and there were none. A vote was taken and the motion passed
unanimously, 7-0.
The eighth item on the agenda was Resolution No. 14, Series of 2013, a resolution
adopting the 2013 Gerald R. Ford Park Master Plan, and setting forth details in regard
thereto. Community Development Director George Ruther reviewed the minor changes
that council had earlier requested. Daly asked if there was any public comment. There
was none. Moffet made a motion to approve Resolution No. 14, with a second from
Kurz. Daly asked if there were any further comments from the council. Bugby
requested the resolution be tabled to allow the new council members time to review the
suggested master plan prior to voting on it. Chapin said being a new council member,
he was concerned about voting on an item he did not have the complete history and
knowledge about. Kurz said he did not see any reason to table this item and that the
stakeholders need to have a decision tonight so they may move forward with their
plans. Moffet agreed with Kurz. Additionally, Moffet said the master plan was a guiding
document, not zoning, non-prescriptive. Bugby said he would be voting no on
approving the resolution because he feels he has not had enough time to review the
proposed master plan. Bugby also expressed concern about having artificial turf in Ford
Park. Rogers said there will be a possible new council every two years and that does
not mean the new council re-does what former council has done. Rogers used the
EverVail project as an example. Rogers suggested the new council members get
educated and make the best choice they can. A vote was taken and the motion passed
5-2, (Chapin and Bugby opposed).
The ninth item in the agenda is the second reading of Ordinance No. 16, Series of
2013, an ordinance amending Section 13-7-8 of the Vail Town Code regarding recovery
of costs in enforcement actions and setting forth details in regard thereto. Town
Attorney Matt Mire stated at the November 5th council meeting the council approved the
ordinance on first reading with no changes. Moffet made a motion to approve
Ordinance No. 16, on second reading as read, with a second from Rogers. Daly asked
if there was any public comment and there was none. Daly asked if council had any
comments. Bugby expressed concern for citizens who may get sued by the town
cannot compete with the town’s resources. The motion passed 6-1, (Bugby opposed).
12/3/2013

The tenth on the agenda is Adjournment. There being no further business, Moffet
made a motion to adjourn, with a second by Chapin. The motion passed and council
adjourned at 8:40 p.m.

VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
ITEM/TOPIC: Town Managers Report:
1) Construction Use Tax Update
PRESENTER(S): Stan Zemler
ATTACHMENTS:
Construction Use Tax Memorandum
12/3/2013
1
To: Town Council
From: Finance Department
Date: December 3, 2013
Subject: Construction Use Tax Administration
I. Background
In November 2007, voters approved a 4.0% use tax on construction and building materials to
complement the existing 4.0% sales tax on all other tangible personal property sold at retail in
the Town of Vail. The tax was effective January 1, 2008 and has generated approximately $5.5
million since inception to be used for capital projects.
The tax is originally collected at the time a building permit is issued based on an estimated cost
of materials equal to 50% of the building valuation as determined by the building inspector
based on information provided by the contractor. The first $10,000 of valuation is exempt to
provide relief for small projects.
Following completion of the project (and up to three years thereafter), there is an opportunity for
both the contractor and the town to assure the correct amount of tax is paid based on actual
costs of the project by requesting an audit of the project. To date, the town has not performed
any audits, nor has any contractor requested one.
II. Analysis
The construction use tax was implemented just after the town’s major redevelopment projects
were underway and just before the national recession began to impact Vail. With the improving
economy, construction activity is picking up once again and some larger projects are on the
horizon. While it is important to have a good process in place for all projects, the amount at
stake is clearly higher with the pick-up in activity and with larger projects.
Recent valuations provided by builders have shown significant variation in cost per square foot
of similar type projects, bringing into question the accuracy of the construction use tax collected.
Some contractors have expressed a concern that they have paid more tax than their
competitors on similar projects. To be fair to all – the town and the taxpayers – it is important to
have a good process in place to assure accuracy of the tax paid.
Building permit fees are also based on valuation and, although this process does not address
building permits per se, if more accurate valuations are established at the time a permit is
issued, permit fees will also be more accurate.
To address the current situation, staff has considered auditing projects completed within the
past three years as provided in the construction use tax ordinance. This approach is not
recommended at this time. Staff believes there has been a lack of clarity within the community
regarding the construction use tax ordinance and conducting audits on completed projects may
12/3/2013
Town of Vail Page 2
place an undue hardship on our contractors. For example, contractors may not have kept as
good records as are necessary to verify actual materials costs. Also, construction use tax is
generally part of the cost of the project which is passed on to the owner. If an additional amount
due is identified through audit after the project is complete, it is likely too late to recoup the cost
from the owner.
III. Proposed Process
As an alternative, the town staff is working with an outside consultant, RRG, to facilitate a new
process going forward to assure more accurate collection of the construction use tax. The
building and construction community has been invited to attend the regularly scheduled
“Breakfast with the Building Official” meeting on December 20th at 7:00 am to learn more about
the new process.
RRG is a private firm that specializes in assisting local governments with the facilitation of
programs that encourage regulatory compliance. RRG has successfully implemented similar
construction use programs for other municipalities and the town has worked with RRG in the
past on sales tax issues.
RRG’s process begins with education, i.e., explaining what the town’s requirements are per the
town code; what records the contractor should be keeping to determine a correct cost of
building and construction materials used in his project; and what process the town and RRG
would use to assure accurate payment of the tax based upon actual materials cost. These
topics will be covered at the “Breakfast with the Building Inspector” meeting.
Then, going forward, RRG would routinely provide an information packet to contractors as they
obtain a building permit which may subsequently be subject to reconciliation of the amount of
tax paid to the amount actually due. The objectives of this step are to help the contractor
understand how the construction use tax applies to him; identify documents the contractor will
need to retain for the reconciliation; and provide RRG contact information for contractor
questions.
RRG would review building permit information monthly and make recommendations to the
Finance Director and staff regarding which method of reconciliation should be applied to each
project upon its completion. The three methods used in this process are as follows:
• self-reconciliation - the contractor reviews his own records to determine accuracy
• independent reconciliation - the contractor submits limited records to RRG for review
• full audit - RRG performs a more rigorous examination of the contractor’s books and
records
The objective of each of these methods is to assure tax payments are fair and accurate for both
the town and the contractor.
Once a project has received a final inspection or a certificate of occupancy, RRG would again
contact the contractor to begin the reconciliation process. The result of the reconciliation could
be an amount due to the town or an amount due back to the contractor. Again, the objective is
to provide an accurate materials cost and therefore a fair and accurate construction use tax.
Staff recommends this proactive approach in working with our contractors to provide a process
that benefits everyone. We will return to Council with an update on January 7, 2014, following
the “Breakfast with the Building Official” meeting.

Commission Requirement. The purpose of this document is to satisfy the requirement 5
established by the Transportation Commission that applicants for Public-Public Partnership1 projects 6
confirm their commitment to the project. Transportation Commission Resolution TC-3106 adopted on 7
October 17, 2013, provides in part: 8
BE IT… RESOLVED that the Transportation Commission requires for each Public-9
Public Partnership project on or before January 6, 2014, a project scope, schedule, and 10
budget developed by the Colorado Department of Transportation in the form and to the 11
level of detail specified by the Chief Engineer; and 12
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Transportation Commission also required for 13
each Public-Public Partnership project on or before January 6, 2014, evidence, in a form 14
specified by the Chief Financial Officer, confirming a commitment by the applicant to the 15
project scope, schedule, and budget developed by the Department, including an 16
agreement to hold a public vote to authorize the local match by no later than April 8 if 17
such vote is necessary; and 18
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chief Engineer may extend the January 6, 19
2014, deadlines to April 7, 2014, upon application for extension form any applicant or 20
CDOT Region Transportation Director for projects in a flood damaged area. 21
Project Scope, Schedule, and Budget Prepared by CDOT. The Colorado Department of 22
Transportation has prepared the required scope, schedule, and budget for this Public-Public Partnership 23
project. This scope, schedule, and budget is incorporated as Exhibit A of this document. Exhibit A 24
specifies the financial and other commitments of Town of Vail and identifies when it is reasonably 25
anticipated that such commitments will be provided or performed. 26
Changes in Project Costs. CDOT and the Local Agency Partner will assess at the Final Office 27
Review (FOR) the project budget to be contracted. An estimate over the Exhibit A amount will trigger a 28
reevaluation of the project as well as the project match. CDOT and Town of Vail will engage in 29
negotiations to determine how and if the project moves to advertisement for construction, as well as the 30
project match. If a project is determined by CDOT to no longer be feasible or if an agreement cannot be 31
reached, CDOT will advise the Transportation Commission that the project is unable to be moved forward 32

have Local Agency Partners.

and should be removed from the list of approved Public-Public Partnership projects. On a CDOT 33
administered project, any cost variance discovered after the Final Office Review (FOR) will be the 34
responsibility of CDOT. On a project administered by the Local Agency Partner, the CDOT contribution 35
will not increase after the Final Office Review. Any addition of a “betterment” at the request of the Local 36
Agency Partner is the responsibility of the Local Agency Partner. 37
If there is a cost savings regardless of who is administering the project or when the cost savings 38
occurs, the savings will be prorated. 39
Intergovernmental Agreement. An Intergovernmental Agreement will be completed and fully 40
executed prior to any CDOT expenditure other than the five percent of the total project cost for Fiscal 41
Year 2014 authorized in the RAMP Resolution for pre-construction expenditures unless an exception is 42
granted by the CDOT Chief Financial Officer. It is the policy of CDOT that the Intergovernmental 43
Agreements must be executed by June 30, 2014. Any change in the standard wording of the 44
Intergovernmental Agreement may delay the project and thus put the project in jeopardy. 45
Criteria for Approval of RAMP Local Commitments. The CDOT Chief Financial Officer has 46
issued the following criteria: 47
(1) Local agencies acknowledge receipt of CDOT estimated project cost and drawdown schedule 48
and confirm their ability to provide funding on the schedule. 49
(2) Resolution by city councils or county commissioners or signed commitments by local officials 50
with authority to commit agency resources constitute adequate funding reaffirmation by the local. Where 51
ballot initiative or future budget adoptions are required, locals are fully disclosing and committing to all 52
necessary steps to ensure that it will be on the ballot and/or receive budget consideration. 53
(3) Dollar amount of local agency commitment must align with dollar amounts of CDOT cost 54
estimates. 55
(4) Local agencies cannot commit traditional federal transportation funds. 56
(5) Where multiple local agencies are involved, commitments are required from those local 57
agencies with the authority to commit all local agency funds before approval of funding commitment will 58
be considered. 59
(6) IGAs already in place should meet the above criteria. 60
Evidence of the Continued Commitment by Town of Vail to the Project. As an officer of 61
Town of Vail, I confirm that appropriate officials of Town of Vail have reviewed and considered Exhibit 62
A which contains the scope, schedule, and budget developed by CDOT for the project and the policy 63
regarding changes in project cost stated in the body of this document. 64
I confirm that to the best of my knowledge I know of no reason why Town of Vail and CDOT 65
will not execute an Intergovernmental Agreement as specified in Exhibit B and based on the scope, 66
schedule, and budget contained in Exhibit A and the policy regarding changes in project cost stated in the 67
body of this document by June 30, 2014. 68

CSE Report ot Council
12/3/2013
To: Vail Town Council
From: Commission on Special Events
Date: December 3, 2013
Subject: In the meeting packets, the CSE has provided an informational overview of the
special events that received public funding (from either the CSE or Vail Town
Council) in 2013, including a summary of key event recap information as supplied
by the producers.
Additionally the following actions are requested from the Town Council:
I. Approval of the CSE’s 2013-2017 Strategic Plan
II. Approval of 2014 Special Events Funding allocations, as presented
III. Support 2014 incremental funding requests that support growth initiatives
2013 Events: Review and Recap Information
• Attachment A: 2013 Funded Events Including Recap Data
• Attachment A.1- Event Recap Guidelines
The complete list of publicly funded events in 2013 is shown in Attachment A for your
review. All events are required to submit a recap summarizing the events strengths and
weaknesses, contributions to the Vail economy and community benefits. Key data is
shown in the right had columns. Guidelines for these recaps are summarized in
Attachment A.1, “Guide Lines for Post Event Recaps.”
Event Effectiveness – Measurement Tools
In 2012, in response to questions with respect to the validity and/or methodology of data
presented by each individual event producer an Economic Impact Study of all 2012
events was undertaken. The results were felt to fall short in the area of event
attendance – a key variable as it relates to bottom line economic impact. This is
because different event producers utilize different methodologies to report attendance,
thus rendering the data not comparable, and in some cases not reliable. The CSE
requested funding from the Town Council in 2013 to contract for a follow-up evaluation
that would develop methodology to measure this function ourselves, and provide the
CSE, and therefore the Town of Vail, accountability for this key data. It will have the
added benefit of allowing our producers to focus entirely on event development,
marketing and execution, both operationally and financially. The results of this project
will be presented in early February, 2014.

TOV/CSE 12/03/2013 Annual Report to the Town Council Page 2 of 3
In line with the recent Vail marketing successes, VLMDAC, Vail Resorts Marketing, as
well as the CSE have all invested in a disciplined suite of research tools to not only
keep score, but to support on-going marketing and spending decision making.
The fundamental on-going tools now consist of monthly and bi-weekly DestiMetrics
reports, Sales Tax data, the on-going Intercept studies providing both qualitative and
quantitative data for individual events, last season’s Economic Impact Study, parking
data, as well as keeping our finger on the pulse of the merchant/hotelier/restaurateur
community.
In addition, the ‘scorecard’ and its support tools such as the ‘marketing checklist’ are
now structured to be more dynamically employed tools. Less obviously, quantitative
measures such as brand strength, marketing expertise, media leverage, and
community integration are now monitored and measured against newly established
objectives.
Action is requested from the Town Council on the following items:
I. 2013 – 2017 CSE Strategic Plan: Approval Requested
• Attachment B: 2013-2017 DRAFT CSE Strategic Plan
For the last several months the CSE has examined its core activities and in doing so
has adopted a significantly improved set of operating guidelines with an objective of
greater accountability, more rigor in why and how events are selected, and ultimately
greater effectiveness. Detailed within the revised Strategic Plan are a summary of the
CSE’s tightened strategic direction, and reevaluation of each allocation based on
accurate recap information as measured against defined criteria.
a. CSE objectives have been closely aligned with VLMDAC objectives, which in turn
are well aligned with the Council’s own objectives. The new CSE Mission
Statement tightly aligns with the new operating philosophy.
b. With the insight that there are perhaps too many events, a quality versus quantity
criteria, reduced redundancy, and a hard look at the timing and seasonality of
events have been incorporated
c. A commitment to eliminate non-performers, reward strong performers, and given
the Council’s request for greater proactivity, investment in opportunities
d. Recognition that the marketing of individual events is an important driver for an
event’s success, the CSE has placed increased focus on marketing including
development of a ‘marketing checklist’, greater involvement in our producers’
marketing of their events, and investment in staff resources to manage this
intensive process
e. The ‘scorecard’, our basic tool used to determine the allocation matrix, has been
revamped to incorporate all of these new criteria.

II. 2014 Event Funding Overview: Proposed Budget Approval Requested
• Attachment C: 2014 Allocations Sorted by Total Score
• Attachment C.1: 2014 Allocations Sorted by Date and Lionshead Presence
• Attachment C.2: Calendar Diagram for 2014 Events
• Attachment C.3 - Event Recruitment Scorecard
The funding process for 2014 events continued to be based upon the more structured,
rigorous and objective strategies developed over the last year. Hard decisions were
made utilizing refined criteria and supported by measurement tools as described above.
In the RFP for 2014 events, the CSE had stated a commitment to provide additional
consideration to events proposed for Lionshead and supported by the Lionshead
Merchants Association (LHMA). The LHMA was very proactive in recruiting, delivering
and supporting a number of event proposals that they felt would bring increased
economic benefit and vitality to Lionshead.
The CSE believes this is a strong calendar of events that will continue to drive
increased results.
III. 2014 Incremental Funding Requests to Support Growth Initiatives
The CSE believes that the proposed event funding budget for 2014 has been optimally
allocated in alignment with their adopted strategic goals and initiatives. In light of a real
budget 10% lower than in 2013, and a stated commitment to deliver more activation in
Lionshead, the CSE requests that the Council consider the following requests:
a. The Vail Living Well Summit - $35,000 (Attachment D)
The CSE continues to view this as a strategic investment opportunity; it is one
of the few and substantive initiatives geared towards continuing investment in
further developing the Health & Wellbeing strategy that Council has set as a key
Town of Vail objective. As such, in its infancy it does not deliver well against the
more immediate objectives of driving significant visitation, heads in beds, tax
revenue and so on. But on the basis of its strategic value, value to the Vail
Brand objectives, its performance and potential, we recommend further review
under the Town Council’s new funding review process, the “Tier IV: Life Long
Learning” category. The CSE will continue to work with the producers in the
framework established for all events by lending marketing support and other
operational liaison efforts.
b. Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series - $80,000 (Attachment E)
In light of the CSE’s commitment to provide additional consideration to events
proposed for Lionshead, this event stood out as an extraordinary opportunity to
have a strong impact by establishing a new Wednesday night series based on
the successful Thursday night Jazz at Vail Square series. A significant cost
benefit will be realized by sharing the tent in Arrabelle over both nights. The CSE
is requesting an additional $80,000 in 2014 for this event.

17 Town of Vail | CSE | September 4, 2013
It continues to be the job of the CSE to eliminate events not performing as
expected while continuing to develop and assist performing events and seek
out new events that support the Vail brand.
Work cooperatively with event producers to ensure that there will be adequate
funding and resources to sustain those events that support the CSE’s criteria
into the future and continue to bring the brand to life in exciting and
unexpected ways.
In keeping with the public trust and economic realities, every event investment
will be held to a high level of accountability. A post- event recap will be
expected from each event receiving public funding and will be publicly reviewed
by the CSE.

Measuring Progress
18 Town of Vail | CSE | September 4, 2013
•Did each event investment increase Vail’s economic performance?
•Are event investments being fully leveraged to increase both revenue and
marketing reach?
•Are we consistently achieving more impact with public resources?
•Do these events contribute to a strong sense of community and better
quality of life?
12/3/2013
The CSE will…
19 Town of Vail | CSE | September 4, 2013
Provide a balanced, year round calendar of events appealing to residents and
guests of diverse interests by:
•Attracting and developing events that enhance and contribute to Vail’s
world-class reputation
•Dedicating resources to recruit and develop new events
•Attracting and supporting participant events
•Actively encouraging activation of events to create an expanded presence
throughout the community and stimulate the participation of the
merchants, restaurants and bars, and lodges
•Encouraging producers to provide free entertainment as part of their events
•Developing community events that will enhance the experience of Vail’s
guests and residents, as well as become effective marketing tools
12/3/2013
The CSE will… (continued)
Community Benefits
20 Town of Vail | CSE | September 4, 2013
Ensure that the community benefits are commensurate with the investment of
public funds by:
•Following objective event selection, funding and evaluation criteria
•Developing critical success measurements. In coordination with VLMD and
appropriate research vendors, tools will be developed to measure:
Increased sales and lodging tax collections
Improved occupancy rates
Impact from direct event spending
Quantifiable marketing benefits
Net Promoter Score (NPS)
•Contributions to sense of community:
Does the event improve the quality of experience for guests and
residents?
Does it pull down-valley residents into Vail?
Does it make people happy?
12/3/2013
The CSE will… (continued)
Communication, Cooperation and Coordination
21 Town of Vail | CSE | September 4, 2013
•Provide complete and accurate information with regard to the calendar of special
events
•Communicate with the local business community, the Vail Chamber and Business
Association (VCBA), the Lionshead Merchant Association, the Vail Restaurant
Group, the Vail Valley Partnership (VVP) and the Vail Recreation District (VRD) to
ensure that the events funded by the CSE have a positive impact on the local
economy
•Maintain biannual meetings with the VLMDAC, ERC and the VEAC and continue to
work cooperatively to align special events and marketing programs.
•Ensure that event investments are closely coordinated with the economic needs of
the community as recommended by the VEAC and with the broader marketing
objectives identified by the VLMD
•Maintain coordination and communication between the ERC, VRD, Vail Resorts
and CSE
•Encourage a culture within the TOV that welcomes special events and provides a
“can do” attitude of cooperation between TOV Departments,
Event Promoters and local businesses
12/3/2013
The CSE will… (continued)
Alignment with Town Council Mission and Goals
22 Town of Vail | CSE | September 4, 2013
•Green Events: Encourage environmentally sustainable event practices
•Advocate for the development and improvement of venues and
facilities for Special Events within the TOV.
•Maintain the status of Vail as the model among mountain resort
communities with respect to the development and implementation of a
special events strategy delivering significant economic benefits.
•Continue to prove to the Town Council that Special Events are a revenue
provider for the Town, not an expense, while simultaneously making Vail a
more vibrant place to live work and play by delivering exceptional
experiences and an abundance of recreational, cultural and educational
opportunities to our guests and residents.

Thank you to the CSE and the Town of Vail for making the Vail Living Well Summit a
success this year. We, along with our partner, Johannes Faessler and his team at the
Sonnenalp Hotel sincerely appreciate your passion for helping Vail destination guests
experience new ways to live a healthier life.
Together, we can make a difference, and bring back what we all learned to our families,
friends, workplace and communities. Our goal for the Summit is to help activate the

BUDGET:
1. Please attach a complete and detailed event budget, including anticipated revenues and
expenses, as well as the amount to be dedicated to marketing efforts.
(attached)
2. What % of the total event budget is the CSE being asked to fund?
16%
3. Describe briefly how you will use the funds that you are requesting from the CSE.
To successfully bring in incremental ‘heads in beds’ for 2014, we need to market
outside the Vail Valley and hit the top markets where Vail destination guests live.
This requires substantial marketing dollars and all funds from the CSE will be
focused on this effort.
4. Should the CSE decide not to support this event, will it still occur?
Yes, the event will be produced, but with limited marketing dollars
5. What is the $ amount of sponsorships from alternative sources reflected in the event
budget?
$100,000

ticket sales, merchandise, food and alcohol sales, etc.)
36%
7. If possible, would you intend to host the event in Vail beyond 2014? If yes, for how many
years beyond 2014?
We want to establish Vail as the premier destination for Health & Well-Being, so
the event will always be held in Vail.
8. Do you anticipate requesting funding from the CSE next year? If yes, given that the
CSE encourages the development of additional sponsors in order to leverage their
own investments, and anticipates that as events become established they will
become less reliant on public funds, please explain how you intend to grow the event
and indicate what %, if any, of the total event budget you anticipate requesting next
year.
As we grow the event to bring in more attendees from beyond the Vail Valley,
funds will be needed for marketing, marquee presenters and infrastructure.
Percent of the following year’s budget would be between 10% and 15%.

Scholarships
DiscoverWell offers scholarships to the Vail Living Well Summit for individuals who are community
leaders, up and coming health and well-being researchers and doctors, and other individuals who show
passion, determination and drive to take back what they learn and experience at the Vail Living Well
Summit to their spheres of influence. We reach out to our key partners, presenters and founders to
nominate applicants for these scholarships.
The following is an example from one of our scholarship recipients:
Over seventy percent of our population is sleep-deprived because the need for sleep is something that
society tends to overlook in the midst of other physiological needs. People do not realize that lack of
sleep has long term effects on health, such as increased risk of hypertension, type II diabetes, obesity,
cancer, and periodontal disease, as well as an impact on performance, in terms of athletics, cognition,
alertness, creativity, and psychological mood. While sleep is often treated as a luxury, we must
eradicate this thinking and educate society that it is a necessity. While the focus of my work with sleep
thus far has been in the realms of academics, corporations and professional athletics, this issue is
relevant to every segment of the population. While some may know basic information about sleep (i.e.
REM versus Delta sleep), very few are aware of the essential health benefits that sleep has to offer.
Research has shown that the quantity and quality of an individual’s sleep is the best predictor of
lifespan, which is a pretty astounding concept considering how little the general population knows
about it. A central aspect of sleep education that needs to be addressed is sleep disorder education.
Even our medical programs today tend to neglect instruction on the 89 documented sleep disorders,
many of which lead to serious health consequences and, in some cases, fatality. It is imperative that
this issue be considered just as significant as diet and exercise in terms of general health.
The deleterious consequences of sleep deprivation need to be made known to the general population.
I, as a contributing member to the Vail Living Well Program, pledge to improve sleep education on an
international scale. My pledge commits to raising awareness for the consequences of sleep deprivation
and to promoting sleep education in the general population. This education will consist of proper sleep
hygiene, the serious health consequences of deprivation, individual differences in sleep need, habits
that promote good sleep and habits that disrupt it, and the symptoms, consequences and treatments
for the most prevalent sleep disorders affecting our population. By raising awareness, I hope to reduce
the number of illnesses, accidents, and deaths as a result of sleep-deprivation, as well as improve
overall health and well-being in society.

AN EYE TO THE FUTURE
As we look toward the Vail Living Well Summit in 2014, we take the successes from 2013
as an established foundation for future growth. Maintaining the integrity of our model
is essential. Small interactive sessions with access to the leading thought leaders in
health and well-being creates our point of difference. Brainstorming is a critical
component for sustaining a compelling, transformative Summit. We welcome the input
from the CSE on any level to improve and promote the Summit going forward.
12/3/2013
Vail Commission on Special
Events (CSE) 2014 Event
Funding Application: Vail
Summer Bluegrass Concert
Series
1
12/3/2013
Name of Event: The Lionshead Merchants Association (LMA) is in support of Lakeside Stride,
LLC (of Denver) producing and promoting this concert series. We are proposing that this
concert series carry forward all of the elements that will align us in accordance with Vail’s
brand. We want to see an evolution of summer businesses. We want to appeal to those who
seek adventure in mountain towns and villages, and allow those who are somewhat more
culturally conservative the opportunity to expand their horizons. Lakeside Stride is proposing
that the Commission on Special Events (CSE) consider the name “Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series” for approval as one of Vail’s premier, community ‐ and traveler‐conscious
events for 2014 and beyond. We want the opportunity to contribute to Vail continuing to be
like nothing on earth.
Proposed Dates: Lakeside Stride, LLC is proposing the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series
occur bi‐weekly on Wednesdays beginning July 2, 2014. Additional dates would include: July 16,
30 and August 13, 27. The purpose of hosting this series on Wednesday evenings is to share
costs with the existing Vail Jazz efforts that occur in Vail Square on Thursdays in July and
August. We have selected to begin on July 2 in an effort to promote the July 4 holiday as a
destination weekend to locals and travelers alike. We have, however, chosen to remain flexible
in terms of proposed dates to accommodate existing events and to, of course, work within the
budgeted allotment funded by the CSE and sponsors.
Amount of Cash Funding Requested: Lakeside Stride, LLC is requesting $65,000‐$80,000 in
funding from the Town of Vail’s CSE. To best coincide that Vail is truly like nothing on earth,
Lakeside Stride is confident in proposing to bring in high‐level, nationally touring artists. Many
of the proposed artists have had the great fortune of previously performing in (or around) Vail
and are absolutely in support of the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series; however, we must
find a balance in the artist supporting Lionshead just as Lionshead must support the performer.
The proposed artists are asking a range of anywhere from $7,500 to $20,000 for a one‐night
performance in Lionshead Village, depending on their national/international level of
recognition as an artist. This is in line with what is spent for Vail Jazz on a weekly basis, and the
higher dollar amounts are necessary to bring in the type of performers that will attract Front
Range guests and attract the target demographic who will consider Wednesday night stays and

Event Description:
1. The inaugural Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series strives to bring together the
existing strength in the Vail brand together with world‐class live bluegrass performances
in an environment that is like nothing on earth. For guests from near and far, those who
make Vail their home year‐round and those visiting from overseas for the first time, the
goal is to contribute to Vail’s overall evolution through the manifestation of
relationships between us as the producing entity and the Town of Vail, Lionshead
Village, partners, sponsors and of course event attendees.
To date, the producing entity, Lakeside Stride, has initiated conversation with key
stakeholders including the Arrabelle and Vail Jazz, in an effort to maximize the potential
for exposure. Additionally this relationship has solidified both a venue as well as a
potential production cost‐savings model between Vail Jazz and the Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series.
As previously mentioned, the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series expects to couple
the beauty that is Lionshead Village and the Vail brand together with world‐class
performances, rotating local‐to‐Colorado craft breweries and relationships with
3

a demographic they may not have been exposed to that aligns with the Vail brand and
existing outreach strategy.

It is the goal of the producing entity to create a free concert‐going experience for our
attendees. To better accommodate guests who appreciate a “higher‐end” experience,
we will set aside an allotment of tickets for purchase for preferred seating. Price of
these tickets is to be determined.
2. The inaugural Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will be located at Vail Square
outside of the Arrabelle. Our team has already spoken with the Events Staff at the
Arrabelle to confirm availability. Our intentions are to work alongside the existing Vail
Jazz Thursday night events to share overall costs for staging and tents.
3. All portions of the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will take place within the
Town of Vail (see above).
4. In‐kind Services: The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will require a handful of in‐
kind services from the Town of Vail including parking for the events and bus/shuttle
service to bring attendees to and from the venue. The producing entity may also
consider a barter program with a local hotel (TBD) for sponsorship in exchange for
complimentary accommodations for our guest performers.
5
12/3/2013
5. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is a new event; however, the producing
entity does have full intentions on working with existing, established Vail area event
staff.
6. People: The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series expects the following in terms of
number of people in order to run a successful, high‐profile series like nothing on earth.
All numbers represent a 5‐week series:
a. Performers – 5 bands to include tour managers, engineers, equipment managers
and spouses/children
b. Volunteers – 20‐30 per week.
*Note** The producing entity will be responsible for staffing volunteers.
c. Event Staff – 10‐20 per week
d. Spectators/Attendees (may vary based on performer)
i. Local – 55%
ii. In‐state – 30%
iii. Out of state – 10%
iv. International – 5%
7. It is the utmost intention of the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concer Series to promote a
“heads in beds” program for its attendees. We will want guests to arrive on Wednesday
for our shows and stay through the weekend, shop at local retailers and eat at local
restaurants. This can be done through creative incentive‐based initiatives. It will be in
the producing entity’s strongest desire to bring in world‐class talent that will create a
culture where weekends begin on Wednesdays!
Budget:
1. See “Attachment 2” for complete proposed budget
2. Lakeside Stride, LLC is requesting that the CSE fund 60% of the inaugural year’s budget.
It is the producing entity’s utmost goal to bring in the right alignment in terms of
sponsors and partners to fund the remainder of the budget.
3. Lakeside Stride, LLC intends on utilizing the funds provided by the CSE for the following:
a. Deposits on performers
b. Deposit on production equipment rental and staff
c. Deposit on venue rental and staff
d. Advertising placements
6
12/3/2013
4. Lakeside Stride and relative stakeholders are confident in the success to be had through
the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series. While funding from the CSE would be
instrumental in the initial growth of this series, the producing entity would still be
willing to put forward the effort through investor, sponsors and partner relationships.
5. The producing entity is anticipating receiving at least 50% of what was funded by the
CSE. Efforts for bringing in sponsorship, and at what financial levels, will be driven by the
level of talent brought in for the series.
6. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will be promoted as a free concert series
with the option to purchase tickets for preferred seating, and perhaps added perks. We
anticipate that between merchandise sales, preferred tickets, food and alcohol, the
series has the potential to provide a substantial return. Fans of the performers being
proposed come typically from upper‐middle to upper class families and communities are
will be more inclined to spend.
7. It is our goal to make a long‐lasting, positive footprint on Vail, surrounding communities,
Colorado, the US and globally. It will be imperative to closely measure successes and
failures in its inaugural year, but the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series does intend
on producing its event in years following 2014.
8. We will anticipate requesting funding from the CSE in following years. The producing
entity has taken potential funding into full consideration as the springboard necessary
to produce such events as those described in this proposal. With the help of world‐class
performers and high‐profile sponsors, the producing entity is confident in gradually
reducing the amount of funding given by the CSE. With the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series proposing to receive 60% of the budget for the 2014 events, we
anticipate asking for ~40% in 2015.
Marketing:
1. See “Attachment 1” for complete, detailed marketing plan
2. The producing entity will be leveraging both the Vail brand as well as its world‐class
performers to seek sponsorship and media exposure. The Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series has an established relationship with certain potential sponsors and
media that it plans to bring on board for this series. There is an additional element of
advertising that the producing entity will consider in exchange for potential exposure in
key media outlets in Vail, its surrounding communities, Denver and within a few
nationally as well.
7
12/3/2013
3. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will look to the Town of Vail, Vail Resorts and
all associated stakeholders for opportunities to co‐brand. The producing entity is staffed
with the necessary marketing talent to run an in‐house operations but will need the
approval of the aforementioned entities to utilize their brands in co‐marketing efforts.

Projected Demographics and Estimated Spending
To better reach our demographic (and beyond), the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will
include various additional elements for community involvement around the Villages, and
community‐wide. Between partnerships with potential non‐profits, community outreach
programs and music education in the schools, we intend on creating a new, if not stronger
awareness of our events through Vail to those who may not have been exposed in the first
place. We will strongly engage all Lionshead and Vail Village merchants, local schools, after‐
school programs, major business entities, etc. to be a major contributing factor towards our
overall success. We will believe that with all stakeholders aligned, we can create a one‐of‐a‐kind
experience for our attendees.
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series intends on marketing its efforts towards those who
will allow for, and contribute to, the evolution of Vail’s year‐round brand, with an emphasis on
summer business. It is our goal to reach those who seek adventure in mountain‐based retreat
and those who like to experience arts and entertainment while enjoying the beauty of one of
the world’s premier destinations. Our attendees will have the luxury of a free concert
experience, with the option of purchasing a ticket for preferred seating. Attendees will know,
through marketing and advertising initiatives, that dinner, drinks (alcoholic and non‐), as well as
world‐class accommodations are readily available should they choose to spend a summer
Wednesday evening at one of our concerts.
It can be expected that a one‐night guest attending the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series
would spend anywhere between $200‐$500 depending on his/her choice in lodging,
transportation, dining, etc. Our marketing plan, however, does encourage guests to stay
through the weekend or at the very least, the following night’s Vail Jazz concert.

Attachment 1:
2014 Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series Marketing Plan
12/3/2013
Executive Summary: The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series strives and thrives on Vail’s
existing mantra of “Like nothing on earth” and the rules and regulations put forth by the
Commission of Special Events (CSE) of the Town of Vail. The following marketing plan is
designed to emphasize areas of great importance including a brief organizational description, a
strategic focus and plan, a situation analysis, a market‐product focus, marketing financials (see
Budget “Attachment 2”), an overview of the marketing program, an implementation plan and a
benchmark for determining success. This marketing plan is set to be executed by Lakeside
Stride, LLC as the producing entity.
Each element of this proposed marketing plan was carefully designed to ensure the CSE (and
other investors should they exist) receives a maximum return on investment. Understanding
the nature of the community’s desire to host the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series was
step one in the development of this plan, including specific externalities, competition and
potential partnerships. The existing market for a live bluegrass series in Vail, specifically at
Lionshead Village, seems to be peaking. Piggybacking on the successes found in the Vail Jazz
summer series, the desire for a free‐to‐the‐public event featuring world‐class talent is what the
local, regional and destination‐seeking communities are after.
Our ability to deliver a unique, true‐to‐Colorado experience for locals and visiting guests alike
through strategic pre‐/post‐event planning, development, marketing and management
resonates strongly through our brief, albeit, successful history as event and festival producers.
Because the CSE and the Town of Vail are considering expanding its entertainment offerings in
the form of the inaugural Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series, an aggressive amount of
marketing and brand positioning will be required to effectively execute and provide a return on
the following plan.
The following three (3) key components will be specific areas for consideration through this
marketing plan, from development to execution. Each individually, but more importantly
together, will represent where a large percentage of the CSE will see potential for a return on
investment through marketing efforts. The goal is to drive summertime business and overall
interest in Vail, particularly Lionshead Village. The three (3) include the performers themselves,
hotels and other accommodations and the local businesses.
Bluegrass Performances – The potential names associated with the inaugural Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series will be the driving force behind our success. Bringing in regionally,
nationally and internationally renowned performers should be the goal of this concert series. It
is both through Vail’s branding, but also through each individual performer where we will focus
our marketing efforts. We will offer a foundation to new and
12/3/2013
returning guests that will properly align all stakeholders with a guest’s desire to have an
experience at our concerts like nothing on earth.
Hotel and Misc. Accommodations – Using Vail’s, particularly Lionshead’s existing and world‐
renowned infrastructure, the producing entity will tailor its marketing towards those who
would be more so inclined for an extended stay through the weekend. While the local market
may not necessarily be interested in hotel and miscellaneous accommodations, we will position
our marketing collateral, and advertising in a direction that boasts the wonderful multi‐day to‐
do’s in and around the Town of Vail, including the appetite for entertainment and mountain
living coupled with world‐class accommodations. From the Arrabelle to the Four Seasons, our
visiting guests will have no choice but to experience something like nothing on earth.
Local Business/Things to Do – Would the Town of Vail exist as one of the world’s premier
mountain town destinations without its local business and attractions, both natural and
manmade? It’s hard to say for sure, but it is our utmost intention to maximize the marketing
power already in place set forth by the aforementioned entities. Attendees of the Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series will have the great fortune of experiencing world‐class live bluegrass,
state of the art accommodations and the best in retail, dining and activities.
1. Company Description
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is a proposed new entertainment‐based means of
drawing a positive, lasting impact on Lionshead Village and the Town of Vail. Together with
Lakeside Stride, LLC (of Denver),this new concert series strives to be the best at what does:
producing world‐class performances at a world‐class destination venue tying together
established relationships with a manifestation for continuous growth. The Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series will take into strong account the Vail brand to conceptualize, build
and produce a concert series that is like nothing on earth.
2. Strategic Focus and Plan
This section covers three aspects of organizational strategy that influence the marketing plan:
(1) the mission, (2) the goals and (3) the core competencies/competitive advantage of Lakeside
Stride.
12/3/2013
Mission
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is a concert series produced by Lakeside Stride, LLC
(of Denver) driving local/visitor attendee traffic, a positive financial impact on Lionshead Village
and the Town of Vail and heightened awareness for the Lionshead Merchants Association
through a culmination of community united by live, world‐class musical performances.
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will demonstrate expertise in the creation,
development and operation of a truly unique concert experience through partnerships with the
Lionshead Merchants Association (LMA), the Town of Vail, the Vail Jazz series, our performers
and locals and visitors alike.
The producing entity, Lakeside Stride, LLC, has a history of successful event production and
management in the City/County of Denver. Lakeside Stride, LCC has partnered with sponsors,
investors and a non‐profit to create, similarly to what is being proposed for Lionshead Village, a
culmination of community through music and historic/communal preservation.
The mission behind the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is to consistently meet and
exceed our guest’s expectations, to work closely with the CSE, the Town of Vail and the LMA to
brand and market an experience like nothing on earth, to bring unsolicited attention to Vail and
Lionshead, and to gain profit for the organization and key stakeholders such as the Arrabelle
and the LMA. In an effort to drive the mission, the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will
work closely with the Vail brand and will be produced by Lakeside Stride, LLC as it has
demonstrated the skills and knowledge necessary to yield results. We are committed to
adapting to the continuous evolution of Vail as a destination entity. We share in the risk and in
the benefit.
Goals
For the 2014 series, the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series seeks to achieve the following
goals:
• Nonfinancial goals
o Market our brand as a top free (with a ticketed option) concert series to those
local to the Vail Valley and to provide a reason to believe for those considering
12/3/2013
an extended trip to Vail, whether from Colorado, surrounding states or
elsewhere.
o Utilize the force behind the Vail brand, the Arrabelle and associated Lionshead
brands to drive interest to the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series.
o Create a resonant desire for attendees to return week after week through a
selective offering of world‐class performances and rotating vendors to be
present in Vail Square at Lionshead Village.
o Continue mapping the evolution of Vail’s summer and year‐round business
through the utilization of “activation” between the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series and potential partners.
o Provide a well‐rounded team of professionals to contribute to the overall success
of the inaugural Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series.
o Implement necessary marketing tools/personnel to execute this marketing plan.
• Financial goals
o Demonstrate a minimum return on investment for the CSE through the option
for guests of purchasing a preferred ticketed seat, beer/alcohol sales,
merchandise sales, heads in beds, sales tax opportunities and high‐level
sponsorships.
o Create an opportunity for the Town of Vail and Lionshead business to thrive over
the course of the series through “activation” efforts.
o Work with the Vail Jazz series to reduce production/hardware costs.
o Donate a percentage of proceeds to a select Vail non‐profit.
o Offer reward‐based incentives for marketing and key stakeholders for hitting the
targeted financial goals.
Core Competencies and Competitive Advantages
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series prides itself in its core competencies and in its
competitive advantage. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series seeks to align with the Town
of Vail’s mantra of being like nothing on earth through 1) positioning itself in the marketplace
for locals and as a destination‐based event through world‐class performances and partnerships,
2) provide a high level of quality organizational and event execution 3) deliver a real
partnership and superior performance with the Lionshead Merchants Association, Vail Jazz, the
Town of Vail and all stakeholders.
To translate these core competencies into a competitive advantage, the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series has established several relationships and partnerships with
12/3/2013
top‐tier performers, high‐level sponsors/vendors, the Arrabelle, Vail Jazz and the Lionshead
Merchants Association, in addition to those on the production side to execute a successful,
seamless event series. These relationships and alliances give the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series the opportunity to tap into the minds of Vail’s key demographic: from locals to
those along the Front Range and guests alike. The goal is to create an environment for our
guests like nothing one earth.

Company Analysis
The vision behind the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is one to bring world‐class
entertainment in a one‐of‐a‐kind venue with properly aligned sponsors and only the best in
lodging, dining and shopping to create an experience like nothing on earth. The producing
entity, Lakeside Stride, LLC has a vision of bringing all aforementioned elements together
through the culmination of community. It is our goal to implement into this series the
12/3/2013
concept of activation to better reach people who may not have been exposed initially.
Examples would include private radio or in‐store performance, autograph signings, etc.
Expanding our expertise from local‐to‐Denver events, to the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert
Series in the Town of Vail opens up a plethora of opportunity both for our organization and the
Town of Vail. The future is now for our stakeholders. The state of the Lakeside Stride’s business
model is designed to provide security and confidence, added value, clear benefit, a true
reflection of our offerings and simplicity with the goal of bringing people together to exemplify
Vail’s true beauty further manifest its evolution as a summertime destination for locals and
visitors alike.
Customer Analysis
Through the process of developing this marketing plan, the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert
Series has been successful in identifying its target customer(s). The main, strategic targets are
first and foremost those local to the Vail Valley. A series such as this would not be successfully
executed without the support of the local market. With this target, we have identified room for
opportunity. Potential offerings of discounted hotel rates or bundled packages (concert tickets,
hotel, dining, etc.) could be utilized as a key strategy to bring locals into experience what only
visitors typically see: a hospitality experience like nothing on earth.
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series would also strongly target upper‐middle to upper
class families in surrounding communities and along the Front Range. With many of these
people already visiting Vail and surrounding towns, an added element of free entertainment
with world‐class performers is potential for sealing the deal to visit Vail versus a neighboring
town. Upper‐middle to upper class families are those who would not think twice about an
extended July 4th weekend in Vail for entertainment purposes or selecting an off‐weekend for
the very same reason. Coupled with lodging, dining, shopping bundles, this is a no‐brainer for
that customer in particular.
An additional target customer lies within the traveler, from outside the US and within. While
bluegrass typically isn’t the genre of choice for many guests visiting from outside the US, the
added element of free entertainment may often be a deal‐breaker for booking a trip to arrive a
day in advance.
Taking the three above‐mentioned demographics into consideration, there is a deeper
breakdown of those who seek challenge and adventure, as well as live bluegrass music, from
the local to the visitor, in a mountain environment. Because of Vail’s natural offerings, the
element of attraction to physical, cultural and natural vitality exists in each and every visitor
throughout the year but specifically for the summer months as it relates to our series.
12/3/2013
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series strives to couple world‐class talent with renowned
options for accommodations, dining and shopping to boost summer business through an
experience for our guests… that is like nothing on earth.
4. Market‐Product Focus
This section describes the marketing and product (performances, accommodations and
commerce) objectives for the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series and the target markets,
points of difference and positioning of each “product.”
Marketing and Product Objectives
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series marketing intent is to take full advantage of its
brand potential while building a base from which other revenue sources can be leveraged. This
is detailed in the following services:
• Current Markets ‐ Because the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is a proposed new
event series, there is technically no current market. A better understanding of our target
demographic can be learned by reading the “customer analysis” section above.
• New Markets ‐ By the completion of its first summer series, the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series expects to be a household name in and around the Vail Valley and down
into the Front Range markets. It will be in our best interest moving forward to manifest
relationships with the folks behind Planet Bluegrass events and other like‐minded
entities to build upon the “current market.”
• Bluegrass Performers ‐ The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will look into book
world‐renowned performers to enhance the overall experience of attendees, visitors
and fans alike. Our team will build a relationship with each band’s management to
ensure proper placement and positioning of both the bands’ brand as well as ours,
together with Vail’s.
• Vail and Lionshead Village Hotels and Misc. Accommodations ‐ The Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series will focus additional time, energy and marketing dollars on
properly positioning each of Vail’s villages’ options for lodging and accommodations to
the proper target demographic as outlined in the “customer analysis.” It should be both
assumed and understood that guests and fans attending the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series should be offered the opportunity to only stay in these properties.
12/3/2013
• Vail and Lionshead Merchants and Things‐to‐Do ‐ The wide array of offerings at
Lionshead and around Vail is nothing short of spectacular. Between the great, high‐end
shopping to a float down the Eagle or Colorado Rivers to a laid‐back afternoon enjoying
craft beers and comfort cuisine at the Atwater on Gore Street, attendees of the Vail
Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will gain exposure to elements of Lionshead they may
not have known existed including our own bluegrass festival.
The purpose of this marketing platform and plan is to identify opportunities for alignment
between ourselves and those involved. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will initially
be relying heavily upon the existing Vail brand and marketing efforts to reach target markets,
along with the assistance of sponsors, vendors and other stakeholders.
Target Markets
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series understands that “your culture is your brand” and
therefore targets its offerings, from performers to lodging options to retail, at specific markets
and customers (Hsieh, Tony. Zappos.com). The target market includes the upper‐middle to
upper class families in Vail, surrounding areas, throughout Colorado and across the US with a
minor emphasis on international visitors.
These target markets/customers are well‐versed in the desire to have an experience like
nothing on earth. Should they not have been previously exposed to Lionshead Village and Vail
as a whole, this program will create that desire within. These target markets/customers will
have the financial cushion to commit to an extended stay in Vail, taking attending the Vail
Summer Bluegrass Concert Series, staying at a local property and shopping, dining and
experience all that Vail has to offer into strong consideration.
Point of Difference
The live music marketplace, especially during the summer months in Colorado is quite
competitive. Our goal is to bring visitors to Vail, particularly Lionshead, for our performances
with an incentive to create a desire to stay for an extended visit. Alternatively, we will target
those who have booked accommodations for our show‐specific weeks with offerings to
consider arriving a day in advance to enjoy our concerts. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert
Series’ key differentiating factors are:
• World‐class bluegrass artists performing in a free bi‐weekly concert series with the
option to purchase tickets for preferred seating.
12/3/2013
• A state‐of‐the‐art venue, offering the highest quality in lodging, dining, retail and
outdoor experiences.
• A first‐time concert series with the support of the Town of Vail’s Commission for Special
Events and high‐level sponsors.
• The opportunity to be a part of Vail’s ongoing desire to evolve as an elemental
expression of physical, cultural, social and natural vitality.
Positioning
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is essentially a one‐stop‐shop for those seeking
adventure in the Colorado Mountains, world‐class entertainment within a pristine surrounding,
high‐end retail shopping, dining and lodging all the while experiencing life in its truest, most
natural form, at Vail.
5. Marketing Program
The four marketing mix elements of the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series marketing
program are detailed below. Each element of the following program was carefully considered
by the Lakeside Stride team and includes the Product Strategy, Price Strategy, Promotion
Strategy and Placement Strategy. Many elements of this approach are traditional, while some
are quite non‐traditional.
Product Strategy
The product approach begins with a summary of each of the three offerings as indicated above.
Bluegrass Performances ‐ The potential names associated with the inaugural Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series will be the driving force behind our success. Bringing in regionally,
nationally and internationally renowned performers should be the goal of this concert series. It
is both through Vail’s branding, but also through each individual performer where we will focus
our marketing efforts. This concert series will offer a foundation to new and returning guests
that will properly align all stakeholders with a guest’s desire to have an experience at our
concerts like nothing on earth.
Hotel and Misc. Accommodations – Using Vail’s, particularly Lionshead’s existing and world
renowned infrastructure, the producing entity will tailor its marketing towards those who
would be more so inclined for an extended stay through the weekend. While the local market
may not necessarily be interested in hotel and miscellaneous accommodations, we will position
12/3/2013
our marketing collateral, and advertising, in a direction that boasts the wonderful multi‐day to‐
do’s in and around the Town of Vail, including the appetite for entertainment and mountain
living coupled with world class accommodations. From the Arrabelle to the Four Seasons, our
visiting guests will have no choice but to experience something like nothing on earth.
Local Business/Things to Do – Would the Town of Vail exist as one of the world’s premier
mountain town destinations without its local business and attractions, both natural and
manmade? It’s hard to say for sure, but it is our utmost intention to maximize the marketing
power already in place set forth by the aforementioned entities. Attendees of the Vail Summer
Bluegrass Concert Series will have the great fortune of experiencing world‐class live bluegrass,
state‐of‐the‐art accommodations and the best in retail, dining and activities.
Price Strategy
The goal of the inaugural Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series is to promote, produce and
successfully execute a free 5‐week concert series. While our target audiences are those in
upper‐middle to upper class families, the purpose of a free concert is to create something for
everyone to enjoy without the pressure of purchasing tickets. We will however, position an
allotment of tickets for purchase in preferred seating areas associated to a potential sponsor.
Promotion Strategy
The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series promotional program is currently limited due to an
unknown budget, but includes creating a brand, website development and SEO/SEM, social
media, e‐mail marketing, activation and print media.
Creating a brand ‐ The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will look to Boughton Walden of
Jackson, WY to create all brand elements including a logo, color scheme, design directives, etc.
Lakeside Stride, LLC has worked previously with Ms. Walden and recommends she step in to
take on this role. She will be guided through and instructed to utilize Vail and key stakeholders’
brands to the fullest potential in the development of this particular brand.
Website development ‐ Lakeside Stride, LLC developed its first website utilizing a user‐friendly
tool called Wix. It will be critical to roll out a website as soon as budgets are approved and set in
place to begin creating a reason to believe in our series within our target markets. The
producing entity will work with its existing team to develop the website. Please see budget
12/3/2013
(Attachment 2) for associated costs. Suggested URL: www.vailbluegrass.com (currently
available). Within the realm of website development is also web marketing. This will include
identifying key words and phrases to utilize in back‐end search engine optimization and search
engine marketing efforts. Our goal will be to rank amongst top‐tier Colorado bluegrass events
without the expenditure of pay‐per‐click advertising. The marketing people at Lakeside Stride,
LLC have a successful track record of corporate level website marketing and are happy to
incorporate that into their overall plan.
Social media ‐ Upon the development of this plan, the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series
aligned with the marketing and business objectives of producing entity, Lakeside Stride LLC to
implement and manage social media activity. The following are key areas of social media in
which the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will develop, implement, manage and report
upon:
• Facebook ‐ The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series Facebook profile will be
set up and implemented. Color schemes will follow those indicated in our design
directives developed by Ms. Walden. The Facebook page will be used as a bridge
between the general public and our website. Implementation of the Facebook
page will be free.
• Twitter ‐ A Twitter account will be instrumental in the Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series’ web‐based growth. Like Facebook, the color scheme and brand
will be implemented to add to the overall look and feel and to provide additional
marketplace branding. The goal of implementing Twitter is to be “part of the
conversation.” It will be our goal to follow like‐minded events, organizations,
publications and our audiences to share relevant information with their own
followers. Implementation of Twitter will be free.
• Instagram ‐ One of the great features of Instagram is being able to share photos
across all social media platforms. It can be assumed that some people get lost in
the verbage of Facebook and Twitter, so creating a photo‐only based platform
for the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will be critical to reach an
alternative audience. Instagram implementation is free.
• YouTube – We are a music experience so we’ll need to generate as much interest
through video content as we can. We can assume that a large percentage of our
attendees are fans, but for those who are not, especially those who are
considering a trip to the region should have readily available access to videos of
our performers. The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will
12/3/2013
create its own YouTube channel to self‐promote but will also share existing
content.
.
E‐mail Marketing ‐ The team behind Lakeside Stride, LLC is well‐versed in e‐mail marketing and
campaigning. This marketing plan suggests that the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series
either consider building its own list of target e‐mail addresses or working alongside an existing
publication (web‐based and print) to target our specific desired demographic. The goal is the
position our concert series in the “push” environment where communications can be targeted
at our key potential audience based on interest extracted from web‐based data, in‐person
discussions, hotel leads, etc. Our e‐mail marketing campaigns will be tailored according to the
desires of our target audiences (ie., “Stay 3 nights, get the Wednesday night at x% discount).
Purchasing lists can be pricey so this plan will suggest we move towards the latter option of
piggy‐backing on an existing e‐mail list through local hotels, merchants, restaurants and
publications.
Activation ‐ The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will be held in Vail Square at the
Arrabelle. That being said, it is our utmost intention to draw attention many of Vail’s offerings
through activation. Our team will look to partner up with local music stores, children’s
programs, radio stations, etc, to “spread the wealth” of our world‐class performers across the
Town of Vail to generate further and deeper interest both in our event and in all of Vail’s
offerings.
Print Media ‐ The Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series will strongly consider ad placements
in key media outlets. The goal is to reach the specified demographic, from within the Town of
Vail to potential international tourists. We will carefully consider existing relationships with the
Vail Daily, the Denver Westword and several other large scale publications to position this
brand. We will also utilize the PR expertise of those at Lakeside Stride, LCC to generate free
article placements in key publications surrounding the efforts behind our brand.
6. Implementation Plan
Rolling the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series business model out into a saturated music,
travel and local market may be difficult but can be accomplished with successful
implementation of this marketing plan. Taking our proposed budget (Attachment 2), in‐kind
donations and sponsorships into great consideration, the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert
Series will heavily rely upon its ability to promote in both traditional, but also cost‐effective
non‐traditional, yet creative manners. The intentions are that this concert series will enter the
marketplace by January 2014 with a fully announced, world‐class line‐up of
12/3/2013
performers, partners and sponsors and will begin capitalizing through traditional and non‐
traditional media, public relations and communications efforts shortly thereafter.
Success will be evaluated based on sales tax revenue, “heads in beds,” promotional sales,
increase in mid‐week foot traffic in Vail and Lionshead Villages and the ability to keep spending
at a minimum while creating a highly effective impact on all stakeholders, guests/attendees and
the media. Because Vail strives be “like nothing on earth,” this marketing plan, from
development to roll‐out continuously emphasizes the value add in world‐class bluegrass
performances in a world‐class venue with world‐class lodging, dining and retail. Giving the Vail
Summer Bluegrass Concert Series the opportunity to propose its value is the first step in
generating, but also maintaining the already established notion that Vail is truly like nothing on
earth.
7. Evaluation
The Town of Vail and the CSE will evaluate the success the inaugural Vail Summer Bluegrass
Concert Series from a sales tax revenue and “heads in beds” perspective. Additionally, the
Town of Vail and the CSE will hold the Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series accountable
against any reporting, measurement and analytical tools that may already be in place for
consideration in the long‐term life of our series.

Motion to appoint Barry Davis to replace Sonny Kerstiens as temporary CSE Vice-
Chair through December 31, 2013. M/S/P: Cassidy/Bank/Motion passes 5-1, with
Kundolf voting in opposition.
Review of Strategic Policies and Procedures for Determining 2014 Funding Allocations:
VLMD can help fund in marketing of events. Budgets have been allocated, but for specific
events, forwarding a request for further consideration must be included in the motion at the
next meeting. The CSE is to work with in the budget for the budget allocation process.
Changes in the minutes for the October 2 meeting include more administration support through
Dec. 4 meetings and selected marketing support for specific events.
Discussion ensued regarding the partnership with the CSE and Vail Lacrosse Shootout
Changes to event producer RFQ
Create packet materials. Event producer needs to know what is expected without too much
paper work. Job will be posted on Nov. 7 and the top 3-4 candidates to be interviewed by the
CSE on Dec. 4 and appointed on Dec. 31.
Remaining funding administration personnel has been allocated to the VVP for meeting
minutes through Dec. 4.
CSE funding allocation score card tally’s need to be given to Navas by noon on November 7,
in order that the November 11 meeting can be posted by Friday afternoon. Kundolf offered to
assist with score card processing over the weekend. Numbers will be a point of departure for
discussion. Numbers must not exceed the budget of $843,300. Any event holding outstanding
debt to the TOV will result in no funding from the CSE. OK to ask producers if venues have
been secured. Chapin explained this is fair. Tier 3 events are those receiving less than
$10,000. These events will receive their allocation in one payment and will not be required to
provide independent event survey data as part of their recap to the CSE. Tier 2 events are
those that will be required to provide independent survey data and to participate in the
marketing check list program. Tier 1 events are not required to participate in the marketing
checklist program, but will also be required to provide independent survey research data as
part of their recaps. Both Tier 1 and 2 events will receive their allocations in three installments:
#1 upon signing the Letter of Agreement, # 2 upon meeting required marketing and Special
Event Permit requirements, and # 3 following the presentation and approval of a full event
recap. All categories of events are requested to submit any marketing materials to the Town of
Vail for “brand” approval.
Changes made to the event spreadsheet sent out to CSE on Nov. 4 included:
Vertical Express: request for $5,000
Tour of Vail change in proposed date to June 13-15
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 4 of 20
With respect to the list-form calendar that was distributed the events highlighted in pink
indicates events that are likely to have more than 5,000 attendees on a single day; information
as requested by the Police Dept. Finally, the Pro Dog Challenge event, shown on January 24,
will most likely be cancelled.
Kick It 3v3 Soccer representatives were unable to attend, but communicated their plan to use
the Edwards soccer fields for the 2014 tournament only. They plan to host a “pre-event
Opening Ceremony” gathering in Lionshead on Friday evening, and reproduce the “King of the
Pitch” again in Solaris on Saturday evening. Vail Rocks! was also unable to send a
representative, as they are presently traveling. Howard Alan Arts Festivals and the Vail Film
Festival producers agreed to be available for questions via phone.
Review Financial Status and Approval of 2014 Budget Proposal:
Motion to approve the 2014 Budget as presented.
M/S/P: Kundolf/Davis/Unanimous- The motion passed 6-0.
Review and approve RFQ for CSE/VLMDAC Event Liaison: McDonald explained that the
revised RFQ puts a stronger focus on administrative support to the CSE Coordinator than the
previous version. Marketing support for individual event will be determined by CSE direction.
The position will be funded as a 50/50 split between the CSE and the VLMDAC, with each
entity contributing $15,000 towards the position. Kundolf clarified that activation and marketing
support would be directed and accepted by December 4th.
The intent is to post the RFQ by the end of the week, with an application deadline of 3:00 p.m.
on November 22, narrow the field to a maximum of 3 by December 2 and interview finalists on
December 3. The CSE will listen to presentations, and make an appointment at their meeting
on December 4. The contract term will be from January 1-December 31, 2014.
Motion to approve the RFQ and decision making timeline for CSE/VLMDAC Event
Liaison in 2014, as presented.
M/S/P: Chapin/Kundolf/Unanimous. The motion passed 6-0.
Review strategic policies and procedure for determining funding allocations:
Presentations/Q&A/Review: 2014 CSE Special Event Funding Applicants
Taste of Vail: Chris Chantler, Greg Moffet, Angela Mueller
Debut of Rose event confirmed for Wednesday evening in Lionshead, and the hope is that it
will encourage people to stay an extra day for festival. If “done right” this is will be the national
debut for pink wine. Not a traditional demographic appeal, looking to expand demographic to
include more women and millennials. CSE is looking at a 10 percent cut in event funding – can
the lamb event function without funding in order to fund rose event? No profit taken out of
event – this event is for Vail. Objective for 2014 is to grow event, to reach a wider national and
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 5 of 20
destination traveler. VR is helping to market via social media and they placed an ad in Epic
magazine. Event no longer benefits charity; the goal is to promote Vail lifestyle. Event has
received national publicity as a top national food event. Not looking for TOV to be sole sponsor
of event, actively looking to develop relationships with other sponsors. Lionshead Rose event
to include Lionshead restaurants that are not normally included in Taste of Vail. Hired Marie
Higbie as a sponsorship director and Kristin Yantis for PR. Biggest secured cash sponsor?
Answer - none. Pre-event discussion about appropriate trash containment is necessary.
Looking to hire Honeywagon to address the annual trash issue post event. Is there a
secondary place for on mountain picnic? Answer – another option is established, if there is
adequate advance warning of inclement weather. “We fully intend to do something different
with Grand Tasting; it’s a matter of money but looking to make it appear more of a lifestyle
event.” Kundolf pointed out that there is a cookbook possibility.
Vail Culinary Demonstrations: Brian Nolan, Ruthie Carlson, Sarah Franke – Group 970
Plan to duplicate what the restaurant group currently does in Beaver Creek. Nolan remarked
that this is the most successful activation that Beaver Creek supports. Culinary demonstrations
draw a large number of spectators from all over. Speaks to culinary message from VLMD.
Looking to erect a tent to host demonstrations for entire summer beginning June 27, or even
by Memorial Day weekend in the future. Has worked with VR for locations that can be
accessible, near ticketing offices and ideal for events. Crowds of 40-60 expected, 25x25 tent to
accommodate kitchen and seating. Incremental tax generated? – Nolan can’t speak to what
the reality is but he thinks it drives more traffic to restaurants post demos, more than any other
marketing effort they have done in their 13-year history in BC. Have not yet met with
Lionshead merchant association. Funding an ongoing event, not a new event. Funding mainly
needed to buy a tent. Lionshead merchant group to contribute to this event through fund
raising. If the demonstrations don’t work, Group 970 will back event. Willing to share event
tent? Answer - ownership of tent open to Lionshead Merchant Association, CSE or share it
with other events. Lionshead Merchant Association will take responsibility to maintain the tent.
This is an opportunity to rent out tent for other events and generate funds. Every restaurant in
Vail has the opportunity to hold a demonstration, Lionshead Merchant Association will program
and run events. Each restaurant has to be willing to make portions for 60-70 people, complete
menu prep, take down and do the actual demonstration. Schedule to be set in April – first
come first serve for all restaurants. Will market schedule through summer. Wine might be an
issue if part of the demonstration, and will be determined as part of the process. If wine in
included in demonstration it will be no charge and will provide a pairing. Kitchen in the tent will
be set up permanently through summer. Area for tent might need some electric utility set up.
The restaurant group is hoping to get kitchen equipment sponsored through a contact of
Nolan’s. Start early with schedule and expand over holiday weekends, etc. Unsure of reaction
from restaurant community. Butler Tents looking to get a bid and provide information about
size and color of tent. Event is something to draw people to Lionshead. Nolan remarked that if
cost is less than allocation, funds will be returned to the CSE at the end of the season.
• Navas remarked that what the CSE allocates should stay with event, returning to TOV will
go to the general fund, not events.
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 6 of 20
• Kundolf – GoPro games could drive people to Lionshead. July 4th could be included in
schedule.
• Bank – cost of tent? - $8000 or more.
Vail-Beaver Creek Restaurant Week, 2013 RECAP and 2014 Funding Request:
Ruthie Carlson, Sarah Franke, Brian Nolan.
Nolan – Valley came together for this event, really exciting collaboration. Thanks for everyone
to get this event going. Entire allocation of funding was not used because marketing ad
placement received discount after placements were made. Did not anticipate discounted ad
placements. Website URL worked well for traffic. Ideas are in place next year for next year to
add to the website. Depending on restaurant, some offers lost money others were not
aggressive enough. Aspen looking to do event and hoping not to overlap dates. Overall, 45
restaurants between Vail and BC participated, 34 in Vail. Non-participatory BC restaurants are
adjusting to make sure they can participate in 2014. Chophouse special went over extremely
well, sold a lot of lobster. Negatives included: balancing profitability and marketability. Moving
the event a week later.
• Kundolf – this event worked. It was a very positive partnership. A lot of restaurants that did
not participate were unhappy that they did not. Love the logo.
• Cassidy – website was great.
• Bruno – great response from locals. Edwards restaurants were jealous they did not
participate.
Motion to approve the recap as presented and release the final funding
disbursement, as billed*, to Vail-Beaver Creek Restaurant Week.
M/S/P: Kundolf/Bank/Unanimous. The motion passed 6-0.
*The event was originally allocated $21,500, had been paid a total of $14,833.67 but only billed
the third installment at $4904.39, which resulted in $1761.94 less than the total that had been
allocated, due to unanticipated cost savings.
Big, Beers, Belgians and Barleywines, January 9-11, 2014: Laura Lodge
Venue secured, no debt. The early January date of the event presents a calendar challenge.
Funding would be used for staff time and marketing to ensure the event will grow and become
self-sustainable and thrive. Currently the event does not fund either staff time or marketing
cost. Looking for further funding beyond three years. Event could possibly move, it’s big
enough for year round support. Trade sponsorship through brewers. Potential impact could
triple 500 room nights. Difficulty to market to locals currently. Almost 100% of funding would be
used for marketing. Cascade supports and invests in the event, currently contracted for next 3
years. Looking for joint effort to make it bigger and better. Timing of event is ideal. Lodging
community very supportive by providing discounted rates. Vail Daily provides platinum level
sponsorship, so does TV8. Other marketing efforts include Front Range press release
distribution. Beer magazine trade ad currently runs as well. Funding will allow a year of
support. Looking for a three-year push. Looking to expand room nights at Cascade from over
300 to 500 in 2014. EcoTransit provides free transportation to participants. Not looking to
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 7 of 20
expand down valley for travel liability reasons. Important to begin marketing effort ASAP for
2014 to be able to reach out to craft brew industry and create buzz throughout a year. Begin
marketing for 2014 event after New Years Eve.
Navas noted that 2013 dollars cannot be spent in 2014, and 2014 dollars cannot be spent in
2015. McDonald added that there might be a need to explain to the Finance Department the
unusual timing of the funding vs. the date of the event which occurs annually in the first week
in January.
Feast! Vail, May 23-26, 2014: Katie Tille and Missy Johnson – Highline
Great feedback. Need more lead-time for programming and marketing efforts to make this
event more effective. Front Range chefs already interested in coming back for another event.
For next event, looking to feature more of a lifestyle and culinary message. Looking to expand
events to accommodate more people but keep intimate feel. There are a lot of ways to
enhance last year’s event by engaging more restaurants and encouraging guests to
experience restaurants. Highline cannot produce the event with out funding. Looking to make a
Memorial Day the summer kick-off.
• Bank – like to see more on Feast earlier. Less of a last minute scramble. Continues to
dislike the name: Feast does not align with health and wellness message.
• Bruno – working with Taste of Vail would be an easy way to get the word out. Would love to
see more restaurants involved and something to do on Saturday. Working with the
restaurant community to accommodate needs.
• Kundolf – we may not make mark on this event because of the reduction in this year’s
funding. Make event better, not grow it. If we don’t fund this, the event will not happen?
Answer – yes.
Gourmet on Gore: Katie Tille and Missy Johnson – Highline
Hit full stride this year. Elevate open air tasting. Focus on the overall experience. Sponsorship
was helpful in bringing more community engagement. 34 participants. Without funding the
event won’t happen. Looking to improve communication and placements of tents.
• Chapin - Agency fee does not wavier, flat fee? Marketing done in house, room to move in
the budget.
• Navas – from a production perspective Labor Day weekend was difficult due to large
crowds. We need to be more sensitive to merchants and the placement of cooking
equipment.
Spring Back to Vail: Katie Tille and Missy Johnson– Highline
This coming year’s changes will include a full week, starting with head liners and ending with
pond skimming to capitalize on Easter week crowds. Event still funded by Vail Resorts and
robust marketing platforms via VR are used to promote event. Not sure if event funding will
increase from VR. This year is different than last year because it’s not the 50th. Concerts on
Easter have generated good for crowds in the past. In past years, expo weekends happened
twice and there is a possibility for that again this year. No plan for additional headliner concert
on the second weekend. This year will be a more official close of season, weather pending.
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 8 of 20
Event has gained traction as the end of year celebration. Marketing messaging to shift.
Operational funding outweighs marketing funding.
Vail America Days: Katie Tille and Missy Johnson– Highline
No event debt. No location secured yet. Looking to have programming be parade, fireworks
and following day evening entertainment to expand the weekend stay. We heard great
feedback for food, atmosphere and overall event. Solaris is a great place but there are issues
with layout and there is room to move the event. Looking for any CSE direction to make the
event better. Focus on Friday event and streamline event based on what worked. The 5th is
incorporated to capitalize on the families still in town.
• Bruno – if you could not get Solaris plaza? Answer – change venue. Ok to co-exist with
another event? Answer – would depend on the event.
• Navas – fireworks still an issue for location depending on what type used. More
conversation needed.
Jon Boord, representing Solaris request for July 4th programming in their plaza.
No plan yet. Goal is to do something similar to what has been done in the past. Something that
includes food, drinks and music. Maybe opening grass area for kids. Spoken to Matsuhisa,
Bol, Yetis Grind and Cinebistro to provide food. We have no problem working with Highline.
Looking to do something within comfort level. Events open to public. Looking to utilize and
promote Solaris vendors. Not asking for funding, would partner and collaborate with Highline.
Volume and quality is an issue. I want don’t vendors “smoking out guests.” We don’t want
overlapping vendors from outside competing with Solaris vendors. Communication must take
place for this event to be successful. This event is about the guest experience.
Oktoberfest: Missy Johnson and Katie Tille – Highline Sports & Entertainment
No changes. Would include good food and authentic beer again this year and continue
emphasis on enhancing a more culturally traditional atmosphere. Lionshead was a great
success. Look and feel of event was great. Gained local traction. This event has evolved. We
saw huge crowds both weekends but it’s definitely a mix of front rangers and destination
guests. It is a risky event; if it rains crowds pour out. Two weekends equals two authentic
experiences for the guests.
• Kundolf – Can we spread the event past Lionshead to include more local business like
Sonnenalp and Alpenrose. Lionshead is more of the destination guests and Vail more local.
• Bruno – Bring the experience up in Vail. Don’t change Lionshead.
Navas - SnowDaze, Holidaze New Years Eve recap to happen after events have taken place.
-Skipped break
Noram Cup: Euginnia Manseau - Ski and Snowboard Club Vail
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 9 of 20
This year - first ever free style event, only a few in Canada and North America. Will also host
Alpine race and expand discipline and to host more international athletes. A lot of athletes train
in early season when the town is empty. Have partnered with local hotels to give guests
incentive to stay in Vail, as there is competition in Summit County. Looking to run similar to
the existing Alpine race and attract a world-class level of competition.
Vail Valor Races: Carl & Cynthia Bruggeman - Speckled-Hound Consulting
Memorial Day weekend – great turn out at Manor Vail. Would like to partner with Highline
during Feast! weekend for start of summer. We have a single focus on Valor Races. It’s a
road race – 192 participants from 18 states in the first year. Additional funding would be used
for national ad campaign. Would like to include a Sunday event for service dogs, since so
many attend the race. The funding request is higher to incorporate everything including
website development, national awareness and programming for a two day event. Want to be
able to celebrate Memorial Day with a color guard and national anthem singer. Able to do this
event last year on small scale. It was a very heart warming experience. Working with Vail
Veterans Program to provide more speeches from high-ranking officers. Without funding the
event will still happen. Two meetings so far with Highline and Vail Veterans to make sure the
event will get bigger. If we move the event it will be more in the Vail core so that post event,
guests will be in Vail Village. We’d like to have a mess hall post race featuring military chefs.
Road running events are very popular and people will travel to participate in them. People want
to come to Vail. Around 3000 postcards distributed via gorilla marketing. Really want to
leverage the positive buzz of the race from last year. When we look at participant numbers, we
could double numbers. Want to put on a really good Vail event.
• Kundolf – partnering with Highline is good for marketing and will help build the event.
Suggestion to figure out with will sell and make it an iconic event.
• Bruno – you exceeded your numbers from last year.
• Cassidy – Feast needs a Memorial Day event to celebrate the spirit of the holiday.
Vail Whitewater Race Series: Sean and Cory Glackin – Alpine Quest
The race was an evolution of the previous demo events. This year went well but could improve
and grow. More time available this year to plan and develop sponsors. Last year’s event was
planned in less than a month. Still will be a race series, with awards ceremony and points
system. Want to bring more to event and build on race each week. With participants, crowds
will be there weather pending. No debt and venue secured. It is possible to have too much
water for race. Only one race canceled – when water hit international bridge. Second week
was much lower than first but we were still able to pull it off with lower water.
• Kundolf – you brought more energy to event this year.
GoPro Mountain Games: Scott Blum & Mike Imhof – Vail Valley Foundation
Last year was the first year with GoPro as sponsor, they took a passive approach. Much more
activation expected from them this year. Looking to push TV show with GoPro help. Year-after-
year we try to take a pledge to take a reduction in funding request with a base of $95,000.
Looking to add an event in Lionshead: “The Bad Ass Dash” obstacle race- same producer as
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 10 of 20
Dock Dogs. The race includes 25-30 obstacles on and off Vail Mountain, visible from Vail
Village with a start and finish near gondola. Year one statistics – 3000 athletes now, joint
venture licensing. In year one, we would lose revenue with expectations to grow the next year.
Asking for additional seed money for a bridge in year one. In year two or three participant fees
and sponsorship would create revenue to move an event to Lionshead long-term. This event
could include 3-5 thousand participants. We think it has legs. This race would not be as
extreme as Warrior Dash or Tough Mudder type of event, but more attainable and “on brand,”
and would include a canine component. Would return to reduced funding base after a year of
exposure.
The event won’t steal from Vail Village. VVF has no debt and location is confirmed. No hard
and fast decision if increased funding isn’t possible. The next step in being credible in the
sports broadcasting world is live footage and moving to a portion of weekend with live
production which would help with sponsorships.
• Kundolf – they listened to merchants asking for an event in Lionshead.
• Cassidy – would this benefit Autism Speaks? Answer– not as large as stand alone events
but we will respect their current charity.
• Bank – can GoPro handle 6000 athletes? Yes – because of the joint venture. We are
hoping for 1000-1200 participants. The event would seem seamless with third party
producer.
• Chapin – Have you reduced media spend? It is substantially less. Answer – no we’ve
tripled media spend. Highest funded event. Chapin– your labor went up in 2014, what is
number one labor expense? Answer – the VVF is adding 8-10 people as ramp up for the
2015’s. We get more bang for our buck with GoPro Games than anything else we do.
King of the Mountain – Leon Fell
Thanks for helping to take this event to the next level last summer. The amount requested is
$15,000, $30,000 would be for a special event. This year additional expenses to compensate
for not having Ford Park fields. Moving event to Eagle-Vail fields. Marketing efforts will have to
take place to convince participants to attend. Looking to keep clinic in Vail, possibly at
Donovan Park, which would create additional costs for the one day of work. National marketing
increased last year through national magazine expose and sponsorship. Both post event and
preliminary. Special event worked to bring additional people to Vail and to the event,
increasing numbers. Need to have a special event to keep those numbers up. All dependent
on scheduling, current scheduling conflicts include Olympic qualifying events. Kerry Walsh-
Jennings was a major draw and she would like to attend – barring any scheduling conflicts.
The AVP would like to come back in some form – some kind of shoot out event with special
courts and live streamed with CBS sports.
• Kundolf – Looking at budget what is Kerry Walsh-Jennings price? It varies on application.
Answer- we will not get her back again for the same price. We don’t know what price it will
be yet.
• Banks – if you come up with a pro event, it’s an entirely different proposal that you need to
come back to us with.
• Bruno – Will there be fewer or more teams with Eagle-Vail fields? Answer - perception is
what might affect attendance. We have to spend extra time telling people it won’t affect the
tournament.

Vail Lacrosse Shootout – Jim Soran
Last year was 35th year in Vail. This year the challenge will be Ford Park and W orld
Championships taking place in Denver. Approach this year is to get 24 teams in all divisions.
Many teams are still planning to commit to the Shootout as a preparatory participation for
championships. Challenge is growing the women’s elite groups. Looking to promote that
nationally to get more participants. In the long run it’s an opportunity to grow it for years to
come. We would like to use some the funding to be a partner with international teams to come
here and increase our number of teams through the years. We held a local clinic with 25
participants. Hoping to do that again at Donovan Park. Considering a night game to
accommodate an Israeli team. Other venues have been explored for that night game –
Joel from Vail Recreation District suggested Homestead Peak School.
• Chapin – World Games is an opportunity and it’s good you’re looking at it that way.
• Cassidy – is this the first time the world games would be hosted in CO? Answer – Yes.
• Navas – are you comfortable with the venues? Answer - Yes – VMS was a nice mix
Kick it 3v3 Soccer “Vail Super Regional” – not present
Keen Kids Adventure Race: Jamie Gunion and Beth Pappas – Vail Recreation District
With appropriate funding we are confident that we can pull off a 3 day race. Would be broken
down in beginner, intermediate and expert. Parent-child race is possibility next year. Would
continue doing an expo. Event will still include optional skills clinics. Family components and
other ideas to expand on the “unplugged bonding time” for families. There is a lot of
opportunity to expand and the last 3 years has proven how much it can grow. Venue Mountain
Plaza is confirmed, Solaris is not. Mountain Plaza would be ideal for expo area. If we keep it at
Solaris we will have to close street and re-route busses. Vail Resorts marketing – looking to
create partnership. Looking to have someone sell sponsorships locally.
• Bruno – this is the most unique events in the country and you’re underselling to everyone
but us.
• Kelli – were you able to get enough volunteers and can you get enough this year? Answer
– yes people really enjoy it. Three days will be a challenge though.
• Kundolf – you have a great asset in Billy Mattison, get him in front of people to promote the
event.
Tour of Vail: not present, Dieter Drake available to contact by phone
Choice of dates dictated by USA Cycling calendar.
The America Cup International Fly Fishing Tournament: John Knight
Hand out – updates
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 12 of 20
17 teams of 20 spots have already signed up. Increase to 20 teams should not be a problem.
Increasing size is to prepare for World Championships. Taking a different marketing angle: set
up speaking opportunities in Front Range. Front Range exposure should help with volunteers
and awareness. Worked with Apex Holiday Inn to create a deal for people who come a week in
advance. Merchant activation went well and the event saw success as a result. For funding,
doubled what was previously asked to get more marketing help, specifically with Highline to
help with World Championships and help with opening and closing ceremonies. Money will
also fund John to go to Czech Republic in June to be behind the screens of this year’s world
championship fishing event. Europe is a huge market for these events and many European
teams come to Vail for the event every year.
• Navas – will the championship help with sponsorship? Answer – Yes, partnership with
Healing Waters has lead to free exposure through some national media. Money is already
set aside to help from 2016. Keep on radar for next fall. Funding request in June.
UROC Ultra Race of Champions: James Gill and Francesca Conte – Bad to the Bone,
LLC
No complaints from merchants. Not a lot of spectators. Biggest complaint was marketing and
participant levels. Venue is secure for next year. Racers started in Breckenridge, finished at
Mountain Plaza. Great year for the event in its first year in Colorado- previously held in the
Blue Ridge Mountains. The event also served as a world final for Sky Running event and
attracted international media. Race went off without a hitch. Media coverage interest from
CBS, senior producer from 60 Minutes came to Vail for race. Survey results indicated that 43%
stayed in Vail for more than 5 nights. ROI data was from Lodge of Vail and they conducted a
survey to gather more data. Vail and Colorado is a really good match for event. Race site looks
good to be secured. Not looking to be part of the Sky Running series again next year.
Considering Lionshead for event; Mountain Plaza finish line was ideal, but if it could work in
Lionshead they are open to it.
Resurrection of Fighting Alliance: Sven Bean
National Mixed Marshall Arts (MMA) event. Not a new event to the town, Sven has been part
of similar events in Vail. Event would include a partnership with Mark Cuban access TV. Dates
held with TV partner for up to a year. Looking to partner with events since this is a night event.
Demographics are 50/50 male and female. Event producer does events in Denver. Partners
based in LA, Vegas and Colorado. Production all done locally in Denver. Looking to do the
event at Dobson Ice Arena. Set up is very mobile and can work with different types of venues.
Event producer has previously done events at Dobson and is familiar with logistics of Dobson.
Dates are held with network and would be selected based on how the event could help Vail.
Ideally would be Friday or Saturday night. MMA is a sanctioned sport, and features Olympic
caliber athletes. This event will be much different than previous events held by Sven in Vail
before, due to different partners involved. Would like to work with local Inyodo Martial Arts
studio to include children and other local martial arts competitors. Sven stated: The event fits
with the Vail brand because it represents a place for world-class athletic events and
entertainment. MMA is sanctioned in 48 states, and is an international sport and entertainment
event, operating under the motto of “Honor, Respect, Tradition.”
12/3/2013

• Bank – this event allows us to spread out calendar and bring national attention during an off
time.
Break for lunch 12:00
Vertical Express: Heidi Heltzel , Cathy Ethington, Scott Robinson – Can Do MS
2014 is 30th anniversary of Can Do MS and 50th anniversary of Jimmy Huega’s medal winning
race. Headquartered in Vail Valley and does national programming. Plans to market to Front
Range, all ages and abilities. Goal is to raise awareness about MS and to provide funding for
programs. VR is providing trade. Programs aimed at health and wellness message. Looking at
a 500 participant goal. This is an anniversary year for event and they are looking to include
previous racers who have raced with Jimmy Huega. Application was clear and precise.
Valentine’s Moonlight Snow Shoe: Michelle Maloney – Vail Valley Charitable Fund
(VVCF)
VVCF offers grants to locals suffering medical crisis. Has not done an event in Vail in recent
history. Looking to do a brand new event on Vail Mountain. Snow shoes (150 pairs) have
already been donated by Specialty Sports. Partnership with Garfinkle’s to host post event
party. Event would include a ride up gondola and snowshoe down. Presidents Weekend not a
need time for events. Event will proceed without funding. Estimated up to 150 participants.
Event about serving community and wellness.
Pink Vail: Michael Holton: Vail Valley Medical Center (VVMC)
Money would be allocated to marketing to destination guests. Positioning as signature event
for Vail Mountain and moved weekend to fill need time. Last years numbers were hurt by I-70
closure and filled hotels. CSE dollars would be used specifically to market to destination
visitors and uphold brand promise. Biggest ski day for cancer in the world and this event has
potential to be “like nothing else on earth.” Looking to partner with Taste of Vail Rose debut
event. Event has outgrown previous venue. Looking to move to top of mountain or Arrabelle
Square. Expecting around 2000 people,70% women, attractive to 40 year old demographic- a
“need” category for Vail. Planning to increase number of participants. Viral component of Pink
Vail can’t be overlooked – half of donations were from out of state via social media.
Emotionally charged event. 55 PR stories in 32 outlets. Event has earned best non-profit event
in Colorado for two years in a row. Various social media awards. Event will happen without
funding, but marketing to Front Range will not happen. No longer a music component. Holton
developed event since joining VVMC. April is a good time for good lodging deals. Looking to
engage all the Lionshead merchants and help promote individual parties.
• Kundolf – Can national partners like GoPro help with marketing? Answer – yes but not with
marketing dollars.
• Kundolf – How is this proposed weekend a need weekend? It’s still Taste of Vail. Answer -
Lodging need weekend.
Vail Rocks – not present
• Bruno – Do we get to suggest date?
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 14 of 20
• Sybill – Preferred August date – same weekend as Vail Soul Music Festival is requesting
• Chapin – possibility to partner with Vail Soul Music Festival ?
Vail Living Well Summit – Jamie Stone, John Stone, Stephan Schmid (Sonnenalp) –
Discover Well
Two Today Show anchors are interested in being the MC for the event. Event went well with
the addition of two Living W ell events throughout the year. Sonnenalp has been big partner.
Looking to do 3 to 4 more experiences. Strategic talks with internationally renowned
institutions are taking place. Survey numbers coming back very strong, in the 90% range.
Content and presenters were well received. Keynote Joe Montana was a hit. Asking for
marketing dollars to market heavily outside the valley to bring people in. 42% of participants
gave an address outside the Vail Valley. Launch parties, dinner parties and other word of
mouth marketing efforts led to more visitors. Looking to target Vail feeder markets. The event
helped the hospitality industry not just Sonnenalp. Although the Sonnenalp hosted, the event
spread itself around to various restaurants and hotels to showcase Vail. Engaging CTO was a
great expose. Worked with CTO late last year. Looking for a media sponsor. Feel free to
provide desired topics.
• Bruno – unique event providing opportunities to interact with presenters. Does that interfere
with numbers? Answer – without loosing accessibility, more speakers, more time. Adding
more general sessions.
• Kundolf – you’re asking for marketing dollars to broaden national or Front Range? Answer
–nationally, selectively. Vail Resorts helped to send out newsletters and helped to engage.
Vail Kids Adventure Club LH: Brian Hall – Blue Creek Productions
This coming summer the event will be moved to midday on Saturday. Better time for Arrabelle,
and allows more space for the event to spread out. Weather is better earlier in the day, and
fewer conflicting activities. Work with Lionshead to make sure people staying there are aware.
Families are a mix of Colorado (not local) and out of state. Partners well with other TOV events
and departments. Want to build sense of community. Also partners well with the Farmers
Market to encourage Sunday participation. Looking to add an expo featuring local entities to
attract more locals. Looking to hold program 11am-2pm – want to be primary activity not
secondary. Building a kids app. to help build the Vail brand. Will go after more made for TV
opportunities. Not looking to change name, looking to work with Beth to establish the name. (*
so as not to confuse w/Kids Adventure Race) Optimistic for next summer.
• Navas- Beth Pappas having the title close to the adventure race caused confusion.
Vail Arts Festival: Laurie Asmussen – Sarah Franke & Cabel Yarne Lionshead
Merchants
15th year in producing the event which draws 70 artists from 26 states. Great working
relationship with Lionshead merchant group. Increased marketing and working on online
presence. Working with Nichols interactive and web developer. Looking to increase festival
hours into the dinner hour. Funding will go into marketing initiatives. Ski yard available this
year and looking to include 100 artists in 2014.
• Bank – willing to move to a week earlier? Answer - Yes.
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 15 of 20
• Willing to move it Vail Village answer – not interested in moving it to Village due to an
emotional connection to Lionshead. Would rather have two arts festivals than one.
• Cabel Yarne: – we’ve asked to increase size and quality of event and flush out craft artists
to improve the quality of the event. “She deserves another year to make improvements.”
Other stores in Lionshead are interested in different event producer. Cabel represents
stores interested in working with Laurie.
• Sarah Franke – split amongst merchants but not constructive conversation with event
producer.
• Bruno – would Lionshead want two events? Answer – excited for any event taking place
there.
• Robin Litt – dates might interfere with other events in the area.
Howard Alan Events: not present – available via phone
Frank Hall: Lionshead Merchants – On behalf of Howard Alan Events Art Festival
Meeting and proper assessment with group needs to happen, they are trying but people have
been out of town, etc. Wanted to bring a high end art show to Vail. Howard Allen has
expressed interest in bringing a show to Vail. Artists are different at every show. He brings in
successful artists that understand the Colorado market and successful track record.
• Bruno - Would have been more beneficial to come to CSE with feedback first.
• Chapin – have to make budgets work. Merchants and business community excited for LH
events. We asked you guys to bring more events. Howard Allen has a good proposal and
strong history.
• Kundolf – we don’t choose which art fest, we just give money.
• Navas – we give money with the understanding that the producer is expected to deliver a
number of things. Long running events tend to have a lot of local support.
• Navas – Vail is trying to pride itself on Vail brand events. Howard Alan’s’ event in Vail will
be squeezed between Frisco and Beaver Creek.
• Bank – if the LH merchants weigh in on events it will effect my decision.
Vail Summer Bluegrass Concert Series: Ariel Rosemberg – Lakeside slide – Lionshead
initiative
Two year history in Denver for Bluegrass series. Great success in first year in Denver. Second
year saw great success in the wake of a developing Denver area. Support of Lionshead
Merchants. Partnership and cost sharing with Vail Jazz Fest. Funding would go to hire talent
for a Wednesday events which can be a challenge. 5 nights of big name bluegrass music.
Funding will determine what bands will be booked. Would include different F&B options to
provide a versatile and desirable experience.
• Kundolf – you have top bluegrass bands selected and it would bring people locally and
regionally.
• Robin Litt – would work well with Vail Jazz festival and have already discussed partnership.
Colorado Craft Celebration: Steven Wallis – Colorado Events
12th year of Colorado Events, specialized in arts and crafts festivals. Looking to include a craft
festival. Event producer holds events in Denver, Boulder and Estates Park for the vendors and
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 16 of 20
artists. Not looking to compete with other Vail arts festivals. Willing to do an event between
May-October. Funding optional and would be use for marketing, entertainment and community
art project. No issue with permit fee. Looking to draw destination visitors. Focus is hand
crafted, Colorado made goods. Trying to make a distinction between fine arts and hand-crafts.
Producer has 5-year experience with hand-crafted events but would like to do something
different. Open to what the Lionshead merchants have to say. Open to change date-would
prefer not to do event during USA Pro Challenge. Willing to do event without funding.
Community art project would be a giant “paint by numbers” – already has artist selected.
• Kelli – proposed weekend is same as Pro Cycling Challenge
• Kundolf – How do you define crafts? Answer – “indie crafters” could include clothing,
candles, art work, creative goods, repurposed goods. Merchandise that is not made in a
factory but in Colorado.
• Bruno – to who is your marketing targeted? Answer – local media.
• Lionshead Merchants – Cabel- we weren’t aware of festival but willing to discuss further.
Pro Cycling Challenge are usually days with the lowest sales in Vail.
Colorado Grand: LH Merchants Enhancements and Recap – Sarah Franke
Recap came via email no outstanding payments.
Angie not present, but handles operational needs. $2000 from CSE went to brunch at Arrabelle
and signage. LH Merchants gave less than $2000. Statewide Colorado Grand was asking for
money to bring in a band for the finish line. Parties and gifts for drivers. Extra money in
account. This event brings in such an ideal clientele. Targeting additional car clubs and casting
a wider net. Booked 401 room nights in Vail for event. Good media coverage. Filled the town
with the right crowd. Insurance permit needs to be covered. Sarah spoke to Angie via phone
and she was willing to do the joint contract.
• Cabel – shoppers very happy with event. Katie from Arriesgado put time in event and
asking for funding for her efforts. Very successful event.
• Navas- needs to be one agreement and one check. We don’t want to have two events and
two promoters.
• Kelli – precedence set for insurance provider and event activator with Highline for
SnowDaze.
Lionshead Fall Wine Festival: Laurie Asmussen & Cabel Yarne
Worked with the LH merchants on new ideas. Looking for a fall wine event in Arrabelle to
compliment the restaurant event. Wine and chocolate tastings working with the Colorado
growers in Palisade CAVE represents 103 Colorado wineries. Wine and food related vendors.
No arts and crafts-only food related items. Picked an off-season date to drive traffic that could
help fill a need period. Working with restaurant community to make it a kick off for Vail-Beaver
Creek Restaurant Week. Event could not be a weekend earlier. Wine and chocolate would be
main focus. Art not a necessarily a part of focus. Laurie has spoken with restaurant group for
partnership. Funding would be to make sure it is done well, signage and branding along with
marketing. LH merchants to see a return. Would seek event sponsorship. LH Merchants have
pushed for right size event with right vendors.
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 17 of 20
• Bruno – where would art vendors be? Answer – possibly upper area of Lionshead and in
the Arrabelle square. Would like to see more specific focus.
• Kundolf – keep it true to alignment.
Holiday Events in Lionshead : Cabel Yarne & Laurie Asmussen
Not a strong event in Lionshead. Was meant to fill a need time before holidays. LH Merchants
have asked Laurie to move craft people from fine arts festival. “Ugly Sweater Run “proposed,
holiday fair proposed.
Vail Film Festival – Sean Cross not present but available via phone
Estimated number of spectators is 12,000: ongoing conversation on how that is counted and
review of funding proposal, including how they count an attendees. Cabo film fest got bigger
names and received more funding from Mexico. Funding history discussed – Sybill will follow
up with data.
Vail Soul Music Festival: Kristen Texler, Rhonda Jackson Sams, Ray Sams
After taking a year off to reassess event, looking to do more to engage the guests and aiming
to do more to promote. Marketing plan clarified. Develop and provide information to guests
about what to do while in Vail, outside of attending nightly concerts. We are more than music,
it’s an experience. We witnessed a “discovery factor” among guests who weren’t familiar with
area activities and recreation. Looking to create more early bookings. Have created packages
to showcase Vail. Showcase to talent and sponsors the Vail brand/town. Atmosphere in Vail is
unique and they want to target travelers looking for a unique experience. We learned the value
of partnership and we want to be partners with Vail. Logistics and operations to be handled by
Running Waters group. Hired local PR “Key Link” to replace Denver team that was not familiar
with Vail brand. We know we need to partner with the experts. Vail Soul Music Festival
resonates with media especially with direct flights. Jackson stated, “We want to be partners
with Vail.” We finally learned how to be a far more strategic and viable partner and have
developed Sponsors, PR, and operations teams to deliver a multi-cultural event unique in Vail.
• Davis – Strongest aspect of this event is the musical talent - who is expected for 2014? Vail
Rocks collaboration? Answer – have not reached out to Vail Rocks but aware of mission
statement and goal, will talk to them. Have been talking to and exploring working with Vail
Jazz. Talent expected – “names you know” coming out of Philadelphia and Detroit – cannot
release names as they are not confirmed. Working to find the right balance.
• Kundolf – who is event producer? Answer – Rhonda. Local partnerships named are from
previous working partnerships. Will take a lot of coordination and licensing starting now to
begin process. Answer – Running Waters will handle it.
• Bruno – do you have any other sponsors lined up? Answer – sponsors contingent on Vail
funding. Possible sponsors include McDonalds, All State, and Toyota.
• Chapin – you had sales and marketing issues, last event what was your paid ticket sales?
Answer -1800 but will come up with actual numbers.

Vail Farmers Market and Art Show Recap: Angela Mueller & Mark LeVarn, Meadow
Drive Partnership
Extended the market till October 6, the main reason being that many of the farmers’ crops
came in late, due to a snowy spring season. Will keep it extended next year. Looking to work
with Vail Restaurant week. 205,000 estimated guests. More Colorado made items and more
produce will also continue. Intercept survey estimated 9,600 room nights for the market
specifically. Town wanted to test composting element and it worked – town efforts should be
applauded.* Estimated overall gross revenue $12.5M, $500,000 sales tax. Can’t calculate all
sales tax, as only outside vendors were included. Sales tax can’t be mandatory submitted by
law. Contract for sales tax collection to change and will include a booth. If they don’t pay they
cannot come back. Some tents will be rearranged next year. Parking at Solaris was confusing
so security spent extra time to clarify.
• Chapin – How many farmer booths? Answer – 10, with cheese. 132 overall tents. No
drastic change.
• Bruno – How many tents next year? Answer - Same amount, if not more.
• Navas – policy change based on sense from feedback that it was too congested and some
basic safety concerns. This year tents were re-arranged to accommodate One Willow
business frontage.
• Bank – I don’t like when the stairs are blocked off but there is more room to walk east to
west.
Next year:
Sponsorships – working on an auto sponsor. Realtors interested, will take only one sponsor,
who will be chosen based on dollars. Asked for a gas stipend again this year – common trend
in Colorado markets. Many farmers sell leftovers to restaurants. Gas stipend would be $50 per
Sunday for 10 farmers. Hoping to sign-on15 farmers. Extra money requested is for gas and a
water station. Big push for no water bottles, will sell reusable water bottles. Cost of composting
$25,000 and came from Environment Sustainability grant as an experiment.
• Bruno – can we promote that the town is composting? Kelli –Vail isn’t on cutting edge but
will look to see if it is on budget.
• Navas – interns manned composting for college credit through the Eagle Valley Alliance.
• Chapin – no entertainment in budget. Response: Two bands will be included next year.
Motion to approve the recap as presented and release the final funding
disbursement for the Vail Farmers’ Market.
M/S/P: Kundolf/Chapin/Unanimous. The motion passed 6-0.
*The Town of Vail provided $25,000 in funding to the Eagle Valley Alliance for Sustainability to
develop and operate the composting and waste management program for the 2013 Vail
Farmers’ Market.
Vail Automotive Classic and recap – Doug Landin, Taylor Slaugh, Don Welch
Doug showed images of Vail Village during event. Raised $13,000 for charity and it is growing.
We’ve moved out of Beaver Creek entirely. Manor Vail now hosts Saturday night event. Manor
Vail reported 28 rooms and many were scattered at various hotels. Started advertising in
12/3/2013
TOV/CSE DRAFT Minutes November 6, 2013 Page 19 of 20
Sports Car Market – premiere car enthusiast magazine in the world. Will do a car auction and
expect to bring in huge numbers for cars. Car auction will take place at the airport. Car people
like doing events on lawn maybe doing a tent and dinner at Betty Ford Alpine Gardens? Want
to continue to grow the event and keep the event successful. Vail is a big part of the draw for
this event. Hard to come up with the money to do everything we want to do. Hoping to get
some CO Grand cars involved this year. Will keep doing it.
• Bruno – is there income? Answer – so far away from that, doing it for fun and charity. We
put a lot of our own money into this to make it better. Doug went to 9 shows to attract car
owners and his own dime.
• Kundolf – is $2500 for advertising? Answer – No, it’s for insurance and a new banner for
Vail.
• Navas – good patch of lawn in Golden Peak. Not sure how large relative to needs. Doug
will scope it out. Is the request $2500 Vail only? Answer – this issue with security is for
people on bikes and skate boards coming through Vail Village. Did not get security it was
too expensive. Quote from VPD was $1500, around $100 per hour per person.
• Kelli – we could do a dismount zone this year. Town can do it. Work with Sybill during map
and permitting.
Motion to adjourn into Executive Session at 4:46 p.m., pursuant to: 1) C.R.S. §24-6-

12/3/2013
To: Town Council
From: Public Works
Date: 12-5-13
Subject: Flood Hazards in Vail
I. BACKGROUND
The National Flood Insurance Program, administered by FEMA, was set up by congress
in 1968 as a voluntary program to mitigate flood damage and losses. The Town of Vail
has been a part of the NFIP since the early 1980’s and receives up to a 20% discount
on all flood insurance policies written in Vail.
In order to be a part of the NFIP, the Town of Vail has adopted a Flood Insurance Study
(FIS), Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM), and a Flood Hazard Ordinance. The FIS
and FIRM designates the 100 year Floodplain along Gore Creek, which identifies the
base flood elevations (BFE) along Gore Creek and its tributaries for a flood event that
has a 1% chance of occurring each year.
In recent history, the Town of Vail experienced this type of flood event in June of 2010.
II. FLOOD HAZARD MAPS
The Town has created interactive Flood Hazard Maps to allow the public to more easily
identify where the approximate 100 Year Floodplain is located in reference to their
property. The interactive maps can be accessed at
http://maps.vailgov.com/SpringRunoff/ or pdf versions can be accessed at
http://www.vailgov.com/subpage.asp?dept_id=179
III. FLOOD HAZARDS
Flood Hazard locations in Vail are based on the 100 Year Floodplain maps identified
above. However, flooding potential is a direct relation to the ability for the creeks and
drainages to convey water and debris. Any amount of significant debris can clog any
size culverts and/or bridges and cause water to reroute, causing flooding to nearby
properties.
12/3/2013
Town of Vail Page 2
The Town is most susceptible to this type of flooding during the spring run-off season of
May and June, as seen in 2010. During this spring run-off time the Town is on high
alert for flooding. The Town monitors stream flows, issues press releases, provides
sand bag stations for residential use, pre-prepares hundreds of sand bags for
emergency use, and does high water checks at over 90 locations throughout Town.
Those areas that have been previously damaged by reoccurring flooding include;
-Heathers at Vail in East Vail
-Bridge Road bridge (Gore Creek can overtop at this location)
-Golf Course
-Vail Village Streamwalk
-Covered Bridge (downstream area)
-Down Junction Bike Path retaining walls
Other areas of concern include;
-Any properties along Gore Creek or its tributaries
-Rockledge, Forest Road, Beaver Dam Road mountain drainages
-Low utility crossings, particularly low sewer line crossings in East Vail and
Intermountain
As with any natural hazard, flooding can occur almost anywhere at almost anytime. It is
not necessarily tied to the amount of rain or snowmelt, it can easily be caused by a
minor shift in a drainage way, caused by any type of debris (logs, trees, earth, rocks,
trash, etcF). The Town works hard at clearing debris as soon as possible when
notified. The most common removal for the Town is fallen tree removal.

Section 1. Section 12-21-2 of the Vail Town Code is hereby amended as follows:
12-21-2: DEFINITIONS:
For the purposes of this chapter, the words contained in this section are defined as follows:
ALLUVIAL FAN FLOODING: Flooding occurring on the surface of an alluvial fan or similar
landform, which originates at the apex and is characterized by high velocity flows; active
processes of erosion, sediment transport, and deposition; and unpredictable flow paths.
APEX: A point on an alluvial fan or similar landform below which the flow path of the major
stream that formed the fan becomes unpredictable and alluvial fan flooding can occur.
AREA OF SHALLOW FLOODING: A designated AO, AH, or VO zone on a community's flood
insurance rate map (FIRM) with a one percent (1%) chance or greater annual chance of
flooding to an average depth of one to three feet (3') where a clearly defined channel does not
exist, where the path of flooding is unpredictable and where velocity flow may be evident. Such
flooding is characterized by ponding or sheet flow.
BASE FLOOD: The flood having a one percent (1%) chance of being equaled or exceeded in
any given year.
BASE FLOOD ELEVATION: The elevation shown on a FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map
for Zones AE, AH, A1-A30, AR, AR/A, AR/AE, AR/A1-A30, AR/AH, AR/AO, V1-V30, and VE
that indicates the water surface elevation resulting from a flood that has a one percent
chance of equaling or exceeding that level in any given year.
12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013
BASEMENT: Any area of the building having its floor subgrade (below ground level) on all
sides.
BLUE HAZARD AVALANCHE AREA: An area impacted by a snow producing a total static and
dynamic pressure less than six hundred (600) pounds per square foot on a flat surface normal
to the flow and/or a return interval in excess of twenty five (25) years.
CONDITIONAL LETTER OF MAP REVISION (CLOMR): FEMA’s comment on a proposed
project, which does not revise an effective floodplain map, that would, upon
construction, affect the hydrologic or hydraulic characteristics of a flooding source and
thus result in the modification of the existing regulatory floodplain.
CRITICAL FACILITY: A structure or related infrastructure, but not the land on which it is
situated, as specified in (critical facility section of ordinance), that if flooded may result
in significant hazards to public health and safety or interrupt essential services and
operations for the community at any time before, during and after a flood.
CRITICAL FEATURE: An integral and readily identifiable part of a flood protection system,
without which the flood protection provided by the entire system would be compromised.
DEVELOPMENT: Any manmade change in improved and unimproved real estate, including, but
not limited to, buildings or other structures, mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation
or drilling operations or storage of equipment or materials.
ELEVATED BUILDING: A nonbasement building: a) built, in the case of a building in zones A1-
30, AE, A, A99, AO, AH, B, C, X, and D, to have the top of the elevated floor, or in the case of a
building in zones V1-30, VE, or V, to have the bottom of the lowest horizontal structure member
of the elevated floor elevated above the ground level by means of pilings, columns (posts and
piers), or shear walls parallel to the floor of the water and b) adequately anchored so as not to
impair the structural integrity of the building during a flood of up to the magnitude of the base
flood. In the case of zones A1-30, AE, A, A99, AO, AH, B, C, X, and D, "elevated building" also
includes a building elevated by means of fill or solid foundation perimeter walls with openings
sufficient to facilitate the unimpeded movement of floodwaters. In the case of zones V1-30, VE,
or V, "elevated building" also includes a building otherwise meeting the definition of "elevated
building", even though the lower area is enclosed by means of breakaway walls if the
breakaway walls met the standards of section 60.3(e)(5) of the national flood insurance program
regulations.
EXISTING CONSTRUCTION: For the purposes of determining rates, structures for which the
"start of construction" commenced before the effective date of the FIRM. "Existing construction"
may also be referred to as "existing structures".
FLOOD HAZARD ZONE: The land in the floodplain subject to a one percent (1%) or greater
chance of flooding in any given year. The area is designated as zones A, AE, AH, AO, A1-99,
VO, V1-30, VE or V, on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). on the flood hazard boundary
map (FHBM). After detailed ratemaking has been completed in preparation for publication of the
FIRM, zone A usually is refined into zones A, AE, AH, AO, A1-99, VO, V1-30, VE or V.
FLOOD INSURANCE RATE MAP (FIRM): An official map on which the federal emergency
management agency has delineated both the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA)areas of
12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013
special flood hazards and the risk premium zones applicable to the community.
FLOOD INSURANCE STUDY: The official report provided by the federal emergency
management agency that includes flood profiles and water surface elevation of the base flood
as well as the flood boundary-floodway map.
FLOOD OR FLOODING: A general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of
normally dry land areas from:
A. The overflow of inland or tidal waters.
B. The unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source.
FLOOD PROTECTION SYSTEM: Those physical structural works for which funds have been
authorized, appropriated, and expended and which have been constructed specifically to modify
flooding in order to reduce the extent of the areas within a community subject to a "special flood
hazard" and the extent of the depths of associated flooding. Such a system typically includes
hurricane tidal barriers, dams, reservoirs, levees or dikes. These specialized flood modifying
works are those constructed in conformance with sound engineering standards.
FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT: The operation of an overall program of corrective and
preventive measures for reducing flood damage, including, but not limited to, emergency
preparedness plans, flood control works and floodplain management regulations.
FLOODPLAIN OR FLOOD PRONE AREA: Any land area susceptible to being inundated by
water from any source (see definition of Flooding).
FLOODPROOFING: Any combination of structural and nonstructural additions, changes, or
adjustments to structures which reduce or eliminate flood damage to real estate or improved
real property, water and sanitary facilities, structures and their contents.

modification of the existing regulatory floodway, the effective Base Flood Elevations
(BFE’s), or Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA).
LETTER OF MAP REVISION BASED ON FILL (LOMR-F): FEMA’s modification of the
Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) based
on the placement of fill outside the existing regulatory floodway.
LOWEST FLOOR: The lowest floor of the lowest enclosed area (including basement). An
unfinished or flood resistant enclosure, usable solely for parking of vehicles, building access or

D. Designed primarily not for use as a permanent dwelling but as temporary living quarters for
recreational, camping, travel, or seasonal use.
RED HAZARD AVALANCHE AREA: Any area impacted by a snow avalanche producing a total
static and dynamic pressure in excess of six hundred (600) pounds per square foot on a flat
surface normal to the flow and/or a return interval of less than twenty five (25) years.

SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREA: The land in the floodplain within a community subject
to a one percent or greater chance of flooding in any given year, i.e., the 100-year
floodplain.
START OF CONSTRUCTION (For Other Than New Construction Or Substantial Improvements
Under The Coastal Barrier Resources Act (Pub. L. 97-348)): Includes substantial improvement
and means the date the building permit was issued, provided the actual start of construction,
repair, reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition, placement, or other improvement was within one
hundred eighty (180) days of the permit date. The "actual start" means either the first placement
of permanent construction of a structure on a site, such as the pouring of slab or footings, the
installation of piles, the construction of columns, or any work beyond the stage of excavation; or
the placement of a manufactured home on a foundation. Permanent construction does not
include land preparation, such as clearing, grading and filling; nor does it include the installation
of streets and/or walkways; nor does it include excavation for basement, footings, piers or
foundations or the erection of temporary forms; nor does it include the installation on the
property of accessory buildings, such as garages or sheds not occupied as dwelling units or not
part of the main structure. For a substantial improvement, the "actual start of construction"
means the first alteration of any wall, ceiling, floor, or other structural part of a building, whether
or not that alteration affects the external dimensions of the building.
SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE: Damage of any origin sustained by a structure whereby the cost of
restoring the structure to its before damaged condition would equal or exceed fifty percent
(50%) of the market value of the structure before the damage occurred.
SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT: Any repair, reconstruction, or improvement of a structure, the
cost of which equals or exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the market value of the structure. Market
value shall be determined by a qualified assessor designated by the administrator. The market
value of a structure is determined either:
A. Before the improvement or repair is started; or
B. If the structure has been damaged and is being restored, before the damage occurred. For
the purposes of this definition "substantial improvement" is considered to occur when the first
alteration of any wall, ceiling, floor, or other structural part of the building commences, whether
or not that alteration affects the external dimensions of the structure. The term does not,
however, include any project for improvement of a structure to comply with existing state or local
health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which are solely necessary to assure safe living
conditions.
12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013

1. General Standards: In all areas of special flood hazards Special Flood Hazard Areas, the
following provisions are required for all new construction and substantial improvements:
a. Habitable structures or improvements shall not be permitted to be constructed within the 100-
year floodplain. Improvements that may be approved for construction within the 100-year
floodplain include:
(1) Temporary grading in the floodplain approved by the floodplain administrator, in which the
site is returned to its existing grade and conditions;
(2) Utility construction/maintenance within the floodplain approved by the floodplain
administrator which is deemed to have an insignificant impact to the floodplain;
(3) Stream bank stabilization within the floodplain approved by the floodplain administrator and
is deemed to have an insignificant impact to the floodplain;
(4) Public infrastructure construction/maintenance approved by the floodplain administrator
including, but not limited to, roads, bridges, recreation paths, walks, stream drop structures, and
stream erosion control measures which are deemed to have an insignificant impact to the
floodplain;
b. An insignificant impact to the floodplain shall be defined as: An improvement in the floodplain
that is a public benefit that meets the criteria set out in subsection F1A of this section and
causes no negative impacts to adjacent properties and no permanent localized cumulative
increase in the adopted base flood elevations (BFE) greater than 0.25 vertical feet. The
applicant shall apply for a conditional FIRM and floodway revision through FEMA, if applicable;
c. All new structures or improvements, unless otherwise specifically provided for within this
chapter, shall not influence the 100-year floodplain and shall maintain a minimum clear distance
from the 100-year floodplain of one foot (1') in both the horizontal and vertical directions;
d. Floor plans and elevations illustrating that the lowest floor elevations including basement,
together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities,of the new or substantially improved
structure, shall be elevated to at least one foot (1') above the base flood elevation;
e. All approved new or modified improvements shall be designed (or modified) and adequately
anchored to prevent flotation, collapse or lateral movement of the improvement resulting from
hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads, including the effects of buoyancy;
f. All new approved construction or modified improvements shall be constructed by methods and
practices that minimize flood damage;
12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013
g. All new approved construction or modified improvements shall be constructed with materials
resistant to flood damage;
h. All existing nonconforming structures located within the 100-year floodplain that may require
maintenance shall not negatively impact the adopted BFEs or adjacent properties in any way,
unless as provided by subsection F1a of this section; and shall increase conformity and flood
protection as required by the floodplain administrator (i.e., floodproofing, flotation prevention,
flood resistant materials, etc.);
i. All existing nonconforming structures that may require maintenance to operational systems
that are within the floodplain shall be constructed with electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing,
and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities that are designed and/or located so
as to prevent water from entering or accumulating within the components during conditions of
flooding;
j. All new and replacement water supply systems shall be designed to minimize or eliminate
infiltration of floodwaters into the system;
k. New and replacement sanitary sewage systems shall be designed to minimize or eliminate
infiltration of floodwaters into the system and discharge from the systems into floodwaters; and
l. On site waste disposal systems shall be located to avoid impairment to them or contamination
from them during flooding.
2. Standards For Areas Of Shallow Flooding (AO/AH Zones): Located within the areas of
special flood hazard established in subsection B of this section, are areas designated as
shallow flooding. These areas have special flood hazards associated with base flood depths of
one to three feet (3') where a clearly defined channel does not exist and where the path of
flooding is unpredictable and where velocity flow may be evident. Such flooding is characterized
by ponding or sheet flow; therefore, the following provisions apply:
a. All new construction and substantial improvements of residential structures have the lowest
floor (including basement, together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities) elevated
one foot (1’) above the highest adjacent grade at least as high as the depth number specified in
feet on the community's FIRM (at least 2 3 feet if no depth number is specified).
b. All new construction and substantial improvements of nonresidential structures have the
lowest floor (including basement, together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities)
elevated one foot (1’) above above the highest adjacent grade at least as high as the depth
number specified in feet on the community's FIRM (at least 2 3 feet if no depth number is
specified), or; together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities be designed so that one foot
(1’) above below the base flood level the structure is watertight with walls substantially
impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of
resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads of effects of buoyancy.
c. A registered professional engineer or architect shall submit a certification to the floodplain
administrator that the standards of this chapter are satisfied.
d. Require within zones AH or AO adequate drainage paths around structures on slopes, to
guide floodwaters around and away from proposed structures.
3. Floodways: Floodways located within areas of special flood hazard Special Flood Hazard
Area established in subsection B of this section, are areas designated as floodways. Since the
12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013
floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of floodwaters which carry debris,
potential projectiles and erosion potential, the following provisions shall apply:
a. Encroachments are prohibited, including fill, new construction, substantial improvements and
other development within the adopted regulatory floodway unless it has been demonstrated
through hydrologic and hydraulic analyses performed in accordance with standard engineering
practice that the proposed encroachment would not result in any increase in flood levels within
the community during the occurrence of the base flood discharge.
b. If this subsection F is satisfied, all new construction and substantial improvements shall
comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions of this subsection F.
c. Under the provisions of 44 CFR chapter 1, section 65.12, of the national flood insurance
regulations, a community may permit encroachments within the adopted regulatory floodway
that would result in an increase in base flood elevations, provided that the community first
applies for a conditional FIRM and floodway revision through FEMA. (Ord. 28(2007) § 5)
G. Properties Removed From Floodplain By Fill
1. A Floodplain Permit shall not be issued for the construction of a new structure or
addition to an existing structure on a property removed from the floodplain by the
issuance of a FEMA Letter of Map Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-F), unless such new
structure or addition complies with the following:
a. Residential Construction: The lowest floor (including basement), electrical, heating,
ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities
(including ductwork), must be elevated to one foot above the Base Flood Elevation that
existed prior to the placement of fill.
b. Non Residential Construction: The lowest floor (including basement), electrical,
heating, ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities
(including ductwork), must be elevated to one foot above the Base Flood Elevation that
existed prior to the placement of fill, or together with attendant utility and sanitary
facilities be designed so that the structure or addition is watertight to at least one foot
above the base flood level that existed prior to the placement of fill with walls
substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components
having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads of effects of
buoyancy.
H. Critical Facilities
1. Construction of new critical facilities shall be, to the extent possible, located outside
the limits of the Regulatory Floodplain.
2. Construction of new critical facilities in the Regulatory Floodplain shall be permissible
if no feasible alternative site is available, provided
a. Critical facilities shall have the lowest floor elevated three feet above the base flood
elevation or to the height of the 500-year flood, whichever is higher. If there is no
available data on the 500-year flood, the permit applicants shall develop the needed data
in accordance with FEMA mapping guidelines.
12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2013
b. Access to and from the critical facility shall be protected to the elevation of the 500-
year flood.

TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Finance Department
DATE: December 3, 2013
SUBJECT: Mil Levy Ordinance
I. SUMMARY
Authorization for the collection of property taxes in 2014
II. DISCUSSION
You will be asked to approve the attached mil levy ordinance upon second reading on Tuesday
evening. This ordinance authorizes the collection of property taxes in 2014 based upon 2013
assessed valuations of property within the town’s boundaries. Eagle County is responsible for
assessing values and for collecting property taxes on our behalf. The town is required by
Colorado state law to certify the mil levy by December 15 of each year.
The attached ordinance has been updated from the first reading to reflect revised
assessed valuations from the county. The valuations decreased by 2.5% from earlier
estimates, or approximately $111,500 impact to revenue projections. 2014 budget for
Property tax is $4.3 million and will need to be adjusted during the first budget
supplemental in 2014.
The property tax authorized by the attached ordinance will generate $4.2 million in revenue in
2014, representing approximately 8% of the town’s total revenue.

ITEM/TOPIC: First reading of Ordinance No. 22, Series 2013 an Ordinance making budget

Series 2013
ATTACHMENTS:
Ord 22 Supp
12/3/2013
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Finance Department
DATE: December 3, 2013
SUBJECT: 2013 Budget Amendment – Ordinance No. 22, Series 2013
I. SUMMARY
Staff is requesting approval of Ordinance No. 22 upon first reading, the third budget
supplemental appropriation this year.
II. DISCUSSION
Across all funds, this supplemental request will adjust the budget to reflect $699,600 of
additional revenue and proposes an increase of $937,600 to expenditures. The fund
statements are also attached.
General Fund
Budgeted revenue has been increased by a total of $162,600. This includes adjustments to
revenue relating to reimbursements directly offset by corresponding expenditures: $34,600
reimbursement for deployment to Coal Creek Canyon Flood incident will be passed through to
partnering agencies who also responded and to cover the town’s personnel costs for that
incident; $8,000 of reimbursement from state grants for DUI enforcement which will be offset by
our internal cost and external agency costs. The remaining $120,000 increase to revenue will
come from construction permits and plan check fees, based on actual collections so far this
year.
An overall expenditure increase of $302,600 is requested, with $42,600 relating to the
reimbursements mentioned above. Other expenditure adjustments include an increase to legal
fees of $60,000 for ongoing lawsuits such as the litigation surrounding the golf course which has
already cost the town over $120,000 since the suit began in the fall of 2012.
During the November 19th council meeting, $200,000 was approved as a contribution toward the
construction of the Castle Peak Senior Care facility sponsored by Eagle County. Staff proposes
funding this contribution from General Fund reserves out of the 2013 budget.
Total adjustments to the General Fund result in net expenditure of $140,000.
Capital Projects Fund
Budgeted revenue has been increased by a total of $537,000. This includes an increase to
Construction Use Tax ($350,000) based on actual collections year-to-date. $12,000 of revenue
is a reimbursement from the Westwind lodging property for streetscape work done during the
12/3/2013
Town of Vail Page 2
Sundial Plaza project. The remaining $175,000 in revenue relates to matching funds raised for
the Mobile Communications vehicle as approved by Council during the 2014 budget hearings.
Total cost of the van is estimated at $350,000. During the October 1st meeting, Council
committed to funding 50% of this vehicle in a supplemental request contingent upon matching
funds being raised. Attached is a memo with an update on the matching funds that have been
committed to by external agencies. Of the $175,000 raised, $105,000 will come from external
agencies (cash will be received in 2014), $27,000 will come from the town’s Federal
Confiscation Fund which is restricted to the purchase of policing equipment, and $43,000 will
come from the Dispatch Services Fund capital reserve account which has been accumulating
for the purpose of call center capital improvements. This request is included in this
supplemental to allow staff to enter upon a contract for the purchase of the vehicle in 2013, with
delivery expected by spring of 2014. The timing enables the vehicle to be ready for use during
the summer wildfire season and for the 2015 World Alpine Ski Championships.
Expenditures have been adjusted overall by an increase of $378,000:
$350,000 for the purchase of the Mobile Communications vehicle (offset by $175,000
revenue above)
$28,000 to replace the LiveScan fingerprint equipment as approved by Council on
October 1st. This was originally proposed in the 2014 budget process, but due to
numerous equipment failures Council approved the replacement this year.
$112,000 will be transferred from the East Lionshead Portal project to the Sundial Plaza
project for streetscape and retaining wall work performed during the construction of the
park, as approved by Council earlier this year. There is no net impact to the Capital
Projects Fund for this adjustment. An additional $12,000 will be added to the budget
offset by revenue above for work done on behalf of the Westwind lodging property.
Total adjustments to the Capital Projects Fund result in net revenue of $147,000.
Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT)
There is no proposed adjustment to RETT revenue.
Staff requests an increase to budgeted expenditures totaling $175,000:
$129,426 of Recreation Enhancement Account (REA) funds will be transferred into the
Golf Clubhouse project budget, as approved by Council earlier this year. The REA funds
represent the annual lease payment from the Vail Recreation District (VRD) to the town
and are set aside for capital improvements to the golf course / clubhouse. The amount
represents the 2013 golf lease payment. The 2014 lease payment is also earmarked for
the Golf Clubhouse project and will be adjusted in the 2014 budget supplemental this
coming spring. There is no net impact to the RETT Fund for this adjustment.
$175,000 of additional budget dollars is requested to complete the golf course net at the
18th hole. Original estimates from the VRD for the netting were obtained from
contractors prior to a design or approvals. The increase is attributed to design and re-
design costs, galvanizing the poles to match existing poles, utility relocation costs, larger
foundations, winter construction timing impacts and inclusion of a project contingency.
The chart below outlines detailed cost increases totaling the $175,000:
12/3/2013
Town of Vail Page 3
Design / Re-design costs $15,000
Utility relocation 10,000
Galvanized poles 80,000
Footer design/winter impacts 45,000
Contingency 25,000
Total increase requested: $175,000
Project was re-bid in the last month, which saved approximately $100,000 from initial bids.
Police Confiscations – Federal Fund
$27,000 of confiscated funds is requested to be used toward the purchase of the mobile
communications vehicle outline above. These funds are restricted for use toward policing
equipment and have not been used by the town in many years. While this will deplete this
confiscation fund, the town also maintains two other confiscation funds (state and crimes funds)
with current balances totaling approximately $90,000.
Dispatch Services Fund
$43,000 is requested to be used toward the purchase of the Mobile Communications vehicle
from the capital reserve accumulated from annual contributions by the E911 Board. Please see
attached memo for more details on the vehicle and funding commitments by outside agencies.

Subject: Mobile Communications Unit Replacement Supplemental Request
This memorandum is to update the progress made towards acquiring the 50% cost
sharing amount ($175,000) needed to fund the procurement of the Mobile Back Up 911
Center. The Council committed to provide 50% of the desired $350K, if the support
from our County’s partnerships could be found. Since then County partner agencies in
a very short amount of time have rallied to our cause to find the funding necessary to
make this goal of an increased state of Operational Readiness come true:
TOV 50% Contribution - $175,000 (approved 10/01/13 see attached
supplemental request memo)
County Agency Contribution - $20,000 confirmed (Eagle County Paramedic
Services, Eagle County Sheriff, Greater Eagle Fire Protection District, Eagle
River Fire Protection District – Note: $15,000 more pending City Board Approval
which would reduce the Comm Center Capital Contribution)
State/Town Multi Agency Drug Forfeiture Fund - $27,000
E-911 Board - $85,000 Contribution ($15,600 additional each year will be voted
on by the board annually which will more than cover the on going operational
costs and upgrades)
Dispatch Services Fund Capital Reserve (which involves 911 Authority Board
funding for Back Up Center Needs that were contributed in years 2011, 2010 and
2009) - $43,000
GRAND TOTAL: $350,000
Once again, we as a County leader in Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness truly
appreciate your efforts to bolster our overall level of readiness. If you have any further
questions, please do not hesitate to call or email.

Section 1. Findings and Intent. The foregoing recitals are incorporated herein
by reference and adopted as findings and determinations of the Town Council of the

12/3/2013
Ordinance No. 23, Series of 2013 12/03//2013
h
of the remaining portions of this ordinance; and the Town Council hereby declares it

is deemed necessary for the protection of the public health, welfare and safety,
because the location of private ski clubs within the Town prior to the time that Town

VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
ITEM/TOPIC: First reading of Ordinance No. 24, Series of 2013, An Ordinance Granting a
Non-Exclusive Franchise Service Company of Colorado Regarding the Provision of Natural
Gas Service in the Town. See attached staff memorandum and draft franchise agreement.
PRESENTER(S): Matt Mire
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, Approve with Conditions or Deny Ordinance
No. 24, Series of 2013.
BACKGROUND: The current franchise agreement between the Town and Public Service
Company of Colorado expires on January 31, 2014. For the Public Service Company of
Colorado to continue to provide gas service in the Town, it needs a franchise from the Town.
See attached staff memoradum and draft franchise agreement
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve, Approve with Conditions or Deny Ordinance No. 24,
Series of 2013.
ATTACHMENTS:
Memorandum 120313
Ordinance No. 24, Series 2013
12/3/2013
To: Town Council
From: Public Works and Finance Departments
Date: December 3, 2013
Subject: Xcel Franchise Agreement
I. Background
Public Service Company of Colorado, operating under the name Xcel, has an existing franchise
agreement with the town which expires on January 31, 2014. On Tuesday evening, Council will
be asked to approve Ordinance No. 24, Series of 2013, to authorize a new franchise
agreement.
The primary purpose of a franchise agreement is to give Xcel permission to install and maintain
natural gas distribution facilities in those public rights-of-way under the Town's control, so that
Xcel can provide gas service to customers in the Town.
II. Franchise Fee
Xcel currently collects a franchise fee of 2% of gross revenues collected from natural gas
customers in the Town. This fee generated average annual revenue of $200,000 from 2009
through 2012. With natural gas prices falling and commercial customers moving to third party
providers, however, the 2014 budget anticipates a lower amount of $160,000. Franchise fees
are a General Fund revenue.
With a new franchise agreement, the town has the opportunity to increase the fee from
2% to 3% as shown in the draft of the new franchise being presented for your
consideration. The proposed increase would generate an estimated $80,000 per year in
revenue, bringing expected annual revenue to approximately $240,000. The 3%
franchise fee would take effect on February 1, 2014, with the effective date of the new
franchise.
Staff recommends the Council adopt the new fee for the following reasons:
• The increase would make up for the loss of revenue due to price reductions and
third party suppliers
• This franchise sets the fee for the next twenty years with no additional option for
adjustment
• Most other municipalities serviced by Xcel collect a 3% franchise fee so this
increase puts Vail on an equal footing
• Franchise fees provide some diversity to the town’s primarily tax-based revenue
An additional consideration is that franchise fees are passed through to customers by
Xcel and therefore impact the town’s residents and homeowners. The impact on any
12/3/2013
Town of Vail Page 2
individual household will vary depending upon size of the home, whether there are other
energy sources, amenities such as heated driveways, etc. As an example, if a
homeowner pays $100 a month for natural gas, he would pay an additional dollar a
month with the increase.
III. Other Key Provisions
Protection of Town's police power (§ 3.1). The new franchise contains numerous
provisions protecting the Town's ability to exercise its police power, including the ability
to remove and relocate Xcel facilities (at Xcel's expense) in the interest of the public
health, safety and welfare.
Indemnification (§ 13.1). The new franchise requires Xcel to indemnify the Town.
Violation procedures (Article 14). The new franchise establishes procedures for dealing
with franchise violations.
Term (§ 2.3). The term of the franchise agreement is 20 years, which is standard for
these types of franchise agreements. The franchise agreement takes effect on February
1, 2014.
Relocation (§ 6.7). The franchise requires Xcel to relocate its facilities at Xcel's cost for
a public project, which includes any project on Town-owned property and any project
funded 50% or more by the Town, the state, Eagle County, the federal government, the
Eagle River Water & Sanitation District or the Vail Parks and Recreation District.
IV. Questions for Council
Do you agree with staff recommendation to increase the Xcel franchise fee from 2% to
3% for the new agreement?

MEETING DATE: December 3, 2013
ITEM/TOPIC: First reading of Ordinance No. 24, Series of 2013, An Ordinance Granting a
Non-Exclusive Franchise Service Company of Colorado Regarding the Provision of Natural
Gas Service in the Town. See attached staff memorandum and draft franchise agreement.
PRESENTER(S): Matt Mire
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, Approve with Conditions or Deny Ordinance
No. 24, Series of 2013.
BACKGROUND: The current franchise agreement between the Town and Public Service
Company of Colorado expires on January 31, 2014. For the Public Service Company of
Colorado to continue to provide gas service in the Town, it needs a franchise from the Town.
See attached staff memoradum and draft franchise agreement
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve, Approve with Conditions or Deny Ordinance No. 24,
Series of 2013.
ATTACHMENTS:
Memorandum 120313
Ordinance No. 24, Series 2013
12/3/2013
To: Town Council
From: Public Works and Finance Departments
Date: December 3, 2013
Subject: Xcel Franchise Agreement
I. Background
Public Service Company of Colorado, operating under the name Xcel, has an existing franchise
agreement with the town which expires on January 31, 2014. On Tuesday evening, Council will
be asked to approve Ordinance No. 24, Series of 2013, to authorize a new franchise
agreement.
The primary purpose of a franchise agreement is to give Xcel permission to install and maintain
natural gas distribution facilities in those public rights-of-way under the Town's control, so that
Xcel can provide gas service to customers in the Town.
II. Franchise Fee
Xcel currently collects a franchise fee of 2% of gross revenues collected from natural gas
customers in the Town. This fee generated average annual revenue of $200,000 from 2009
through 2012. With natural gas prices falling and commercial customers moving to third party
providers, however, the 2014 budget anticipates a lower amount of $160,000. Franchise fees
are a General Fund revenue.
With a new franchise agreement, the town has the opportunity to increase the fee from
2% to 3% as shown in the draft of the new franchise being presented for your
consideration. The proposed increase would generate an estimated $80,000 per year in
revenue, bringing expected annual revenue to approximately $240,000. The 3%
franchise fee would take effect on February 1, 2014, with the effective date of the new
franchise.
Staff recommends the Council adopt the new fee for the following reasons:
• The increase would make up for the loss of revenue due to price reductions and
third party suppliers
• This franchise sets the fee for the next twenty years with no additional option for
adjustment
• Most other municipalities serviced by Xcel collect a 3% franchise fee so this
increase puts Vail on an equal footing
• Franchise fees provide some diversity to the town’s primarily tax-based revenue
An additional consideration is that franchise fees are passed through to customers by
Xcel and therefore impact the town’s residents and homeowners. The impact on any
12/3/2013
Town of Vail Page 2
individual household will vary depending upon size of the home, whether there are other
energy sources, amenities such as heated driveways, etc. As an example, if a
homeowner pays $100 a month for natural gas, he would pay an additional dollar a
month with the increase.
III. Other Key Provisions
Protection of Town's police power (§ 3.1). The new franchise contains numerous
provisions protecting the Town's ability to exercise its police power, including the ability
to remove and relocate Xcel facilities (at Xcel's expense) in the interest of the public
health, safety and welfare.
Indemnification (§ 13.1). The new franchise requires Xcel to indemnify the Town.
Violation procedures (Article 14). The new franchise establishes procedures for dealing
with franchise violations.
Term (§ 2.3). The term of the franchise agreement is 20 years, which is standard for
these types of franchise agreements. The franchise agreement takes effect on February
1, 2014.
Relocation (§ 6.7). The franchise requires Xcel to relocate its facilities at Xcel's cost for
a public project, which includes any project on Town-owned property and any project
funded 50% or more by the Town, the state, Eagle County, the federal government, the
Eagle River Water & Sanitation District or the Vail Parks and Recreation District.
IV. Questions for Council
Do you agree with staff recommendation to increase the Xcel franchise fee from 2% to
3% for the new agreement?
