location. There was some discussion about the following court striping for both tennis & pickle
ball and use of Golden peak courts for pickle ball where there have been no issues. Mayor Daly
asked for public input:
Susie Tjossem, resident, requested that tennis courts not be sacrificed by pickle ball users
and spoke about clay court protocol and maintenance. She indicated there may be a need
to provide for a pickleball court solely and not combine the two types of play on one kind of
court.
Joan & Jack Kearney, residents, spoke about their neighborhood and park with support to
keeping the park a natural park but acknowledging the growing popularity of the pickleball
sport and finally requesting that that court location not be close to neighborhoods as it is too

including benchmark comparisons, community priorities, as well as comments and suggestions
related to the Town Council areas of focus. Suzanne Silverthorne shared the name of who won
the gift certificate for completing the survey as Bob Oppenhimer. The Town Council and
audience was reminded the Vail Community Survey serves as a key measurement used to
probe public policy issues and solicit feedback on other topics of community interest and is used
to measure the town's operational performance. The survey has been conducted every other
year; the 2014 survey was fielded in late-March with responses collected through May 16.
Mayor Daly commended town staff for the very high results that were achieved regarding the
services provided to the community and thanked RRC Associates for excellent work on the
survey.
The seventh item on the agenda was a public hearing and update about the town’s policy on
the operation of recreational marijuana establishments in the town as presented by George
Ruther, Community Development. He presented some information about Amendment 64 – use
and regulation of marijuana, the town’s historical response to the amendment, the working
group’s approach to reviewing the topic, and a quick recap of the many questions still not
answered on this topic. The working group was described not as an advisory group that would
make recommendations, but rather a group that has convened to identify questions & answers if
7/1/2014
Town Council Meeting Minutes of June 17, 2014 Page 3
possible surrounding the topic. The goal was not to get the group to consensus and the group
was asked to identify questions they want answered. Council comments were heard as follows:
Some community input showed support for W est Vail as the better location for such retail
sales
Community results are somewhat age driven and residents driven in terms of support or
opposition
Some support to extend the ban another year to gather more information and take time to
observe communities that have implemented approval for the sales
Some would prefer to address the topic more timely than wait another full year
Support to gather more input from law enforcement agencies, medical facilities and schools,
tourists and lodging groups
Would the state’s liquor regulations on licensing, sale and use work similarly on the
enforcement of this product
Oppose any type of “grow houses”
Need to address the “edibles”
Mayor Daly asked for public input at this time.
Barbara Allen, Eagle County resident, provided handouts for the town council that
addressed the wellness & public safety concerns
Allison Wadey, Vail Chamber & Business Association, provides results of a survey
conducted
Paul Roudeau, resident, provided his input noting it is a difficult situation and he supported
the use of a working group and finally there may be a place for medical marijuana as
promoting “wellness” for those who are in need of pain relievers
Rogers moved to direct the Town Attorney to draft legislation that would extend the moratorium
until July 2015. Bugby seconded the motion and it unanimously passed (7-0). There was a
Council request to create some publications that would help the community and guests better
understand the rules and regulations associated with Amendment 64. It was agreed that
another update might be necessary toward the end of 2014. Rogers’ complimented staff and
the working group for their efforts and encouraged them to continuing gathering data and
evaluate what might be the best scenario for the community.
The eighth item on the agenda was adjournment. There being no further business to come
before the council, Moffet moved to adjourn the meeting and Bugby seconded. The motion
passed unanimously, 7-0 and the meeting adjourned 8:00 p.m.

To: Town Council
From: Public Works Department
Date: 7-1-14
Subject: Town of Vail Wayfinding and Signage Contract Award
I. SUMMARY
The Town of Vail recently publically bid the Vail Village and Lionshead Wayfinding and
Signage project and received five bids. The project replaces the existing 14 year old
Pedestrian Wayfinging signage, In-Town Bus Stop signs, and the Vail Village and
Lionshead Parking Structure Entrance Signs. The following bids were received and
evaluated;
Creative Sign Designs $183,448 (No removal or install of Pedestrian signs)
Ad Light & Sign $260,481
Creo Arts $307,826
Arapahoe Sign Arts $377,946 (No removal of Pedestrian signs)
YESCO $571,859
Town staff and the design team have evaluated each bid and recommend that the Town
award the contract to Ad Light & Sign. Ad Light & Sign recently successfully completed
the Lionshead Welcome Center sign package and are located in Colorado. The lowest
bidder, Creative Sign Designs, chose not to provide a bid for removal and installation of
the existing pedestrian wayfinding signs so is not a apples to apples comparison.
In addition, the parking structure entrance signs will incorporate four new Variable
Message Signs (VMS) within them. These four VMS signs will be ordered and
purchased separately by the Town directly from the manufacturer, Daktronics, in the
amount of $31,600. Similarly, in anticipation of the construction of the four Vail Town
Center interchange overhead VMS signs, the Town will also be ordering four larger
VMS signs from Daktronics in the amount of $65,500. These larger VMS signs will
have an additional contract and cost for sign fabrication and installation that will be
presented to the Council after the public bids have been received.
II. RECOMMENDATION
Town staff recommends Council direct the Town Manager to enter into a Contract with
Ad Light & Sign in an amount not to exceed $260,481. Town staff also recommends
allowing staff to move forward with ordering the four parking structure entrance VMS
signs in the amount of $31,600; and ordering the four Vail Town Center interchange
overhead VMS signs in the amount of $65,500.

Procedures, Vail Town Code, to amend the condominium use requirements and restrictions for
Phase V (structure at the northeast corner of the intersection of Vail Road and East Meadow
Drive), located at 100 East Meadow Drive/Parts of Lots M and O, Block 5D, Vail Village Filing 1,
and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC140014)

2. A request for the review of a conditional use permit, pursuant to 12-9C-3, Conditional Uses, Vail
Town Code, for a public and quasi-public indoor community facilities (education center), to allow
for the construction of the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens Education Center, located 530 South
Frontage Road/Unplatted, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC140005)
Applicant: Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, represented by Jack Hunn
Planner: Jonathan Spence
ACTION: Tabled to July 14, 2014
MOTION: Kurz SECOND: Redker VOTE: 5-0-0
Jonathan Spence gave a presentation per the staff memorandum.
Jack Hunn, representing Betty Ford Alpine Garden, introduced several members of the
audience. He focused on the staff memorandum and the items staff identified as needing
additional information. He spoke to the cause of the differences in plans as being the result of
the addition of a restroom and the loss of the second office. He continued by discussing the
need to nail down some elements around the use of the facility for weddings and other meetings.
Commissioner Cartin spoke to a concern about the facility becoming more of a meeting and
wedding venue at the cost of the educational focus of the Garden.
Jack Hunn spoke to how evens would not be held except after normal business hours of the
Education Center.
Commissioner Rediker spoke to a need to have some sort of link to the Education Center with
any event that is scheduled. He suggested fundraisers would be appropriate. He felt that
7/1/2014
Page 2
outside groups (private entities) renting the facility was going outside the boundaries of the use
of the park as a public park.
Commissioner Kurz spoke to the size of the facility and a maximum number of 53 participants as
provided by Jack Hunn.
Commissioner Cartin inquired as to any requirements placed upon the amphitheater social court
yard.
Commissioner Pratt spoke to the building occupancy requirements limiting the number of
participants. His point was when events are introduced, loading and delivery become discussion
points again. Including ADA accessibility access.
Jack Hunn spoke to ADA accessibility and the efforts being made to comply and meet a desire to
have the ability for golf carts move materials to the upper portion of the gardens. He believes
they are approaching a solution.
There was no Commissioner response.
Jack Hunn spoke to safety and softballs and the fact that a shade structure was possibly going to
cause an increase in the required number of bathroom facilities. He stated that there may be an
outcome where the rooftop patio is not included or not covered as to not trigger additional
bathrooms. He stated that a solution might be to not hold events on the upper deck when
softball is being played.
Several Commissioners provided input as to the upper deck and safety.
Commissioner Rediker stated that it may be appropriate to require the applicant to carry
insurance against injury.
Jonathan Spence stated he would speak to the Town Attorney about the appropriateness of this
request.
Jack Hunn then spoke to the proposed parking solution to use the Vail Village parking structure.
There would be no parking at the maintenance facility. He then moved on to the required
mitigation of employees (Linkage Requirement)
Commissioner Rediker inquired as to process for requesting a variance from employee
mitigation.
Jonathan Spence explained the process.
Commissioner Cartin spoke to the need to show a hardship and not a special privilege for a non-
profit.
Jack Hunn spoke to the requirement for a water loop in the park and the recent understanding
that the funding for the loop project was being requested in the current budget and the
improvement would be constructed at the same time the Education Center was under
construction.
The Commission spoke to a need to have the loop completed prior to occupancy.
7/1/2014

Jack Hunn spoke to the inclusion of an additional toilet in the women’s restroom. This results in
a single toilet and sink for men and two toilets and a sink for women.
There was conversation between the Commission, applicant, and staff regarding the difference
in the minimum requirement of the Building Code and the actual demand for restrooms during an
event.
Jack Hunn spoke to loading and delivery and the fact that packages will be delivered to the
Village. There was conversation regarding the need for catering drop off and pick up.
3. A request for a recommendation to the Vail Town Council on the adoption of the Vail Valley
Medical Center Master Plan, to establish a comprehensive redevelopment plan for the Vail
Valley Medical Center, Lot 10 (Town of Vail parking lot), and US Bank Building, located at 181
and 281 West Meadow Drive and 108 South Frontage Road West/ Lots E, F, and 10 Vail Village
