"Where do we go from here ?"
• The June meeting was about reviewing an expansive fact -
based exploration of Vail's positioning; today we will be looking
toward the future.
• The overarching finding from the Competitive Analysis is that
the Town of Vail and Vail Resorts are doing most things very
well. Don't forget that you're at the top by most measures.
• Continue to improve in the areas where you perform well by
striving for excellence, while also focusing on areas of
opportunity as Vail plans for the future.

TOWN OF
VA�
Overview of July 15 Work Session
• Colorado population will grow overall, as will population in the mountain
areas.
• Destination Skier and Rider visitation growth presents challenges in light of
demographics and will likely be increasingly weather dependent.
• Summer growth will occur, especially if it is given strategic attention.
• Millennials (the age cohort 34 and under, or between 18 and 33 (22% of
pop.) are the future. There is a need and opportunity to better understand
and plan around this group.
• Transfers of wealth will occur. What will this look like for Vail?
• Climate change is to be expected — creating challenges and opportunities.

Overview of July 15 Work Session
• Vail is at or near the top in most competitive economic measures that were
evaluated including winter skier /rider visits nationally, winter and summer
occupancy, winter rate (summer is relatively weaker), sales tax recovery
since 2008, etc.
• Park City is identified as a notable competitive force based on size, product,
proximity to a major airport and the potential for the Interconnect. There are
other lessons to be learned and elements of success found in a variety of
comparable communities including: Aspen /Snowmass, Whistler,
Breckenridge and Jackson Hole.

Overview of July 15 Work Session
• Air service is a concern with significant declines since 2007 -08. Also,
summer air service is limited and is a weakness when compared to both
Aspen and Jackson Hole.
• Regarding winter guest perceptions, Vail has extremely strong brand
awareness and the back bowls are iconic. Ratings of the mountain and Town
are generally very positive, but parking, crowding and opinions concerning
cost and value require continued attention.

Summary of Meeting Notes from the July 15 Work Session
• We need to create facilities that support events; Also, again, quality and not
quantity. We're not designed for quantity.
• We should look at zoning and create opportunities for different types of
businesses ones that would allow guests to stay out later.
• Develop an understanding of product offerings that respond to the next
generation; Identify needs of Millennials and Gen -Xers.
• Identify physical improvements to be made.
• Maximize natural resources.
• Increase capacity and lift at Eagle Airport to create more opportunity for the
destination guest to travel easily to Vail.

Technology — Vail becomes a thoroughly "connected" community
• Continue to upgrade phone and digital services throughout the valley.
• Use best available technology to enhance communications with guests and
residents. Build on emerging technology and take full advantage of advances
gained through the World Championships. Additionally, look to enhanced
signage; and up to the minute and state of the art information systems
regarding transportation and parking, lines /crowding (in town and on the
mountain); and other conditions and events to enhance the experience.
• Recognize that Vail Resorts is a leader in using technology to communicate
with guests. Leverage that reputation and other available opportunities (the
GoPro name, etc.) to build the idea that Vail is "tech easy" — Millennials
expect and value it.

A Seamless Guest Experience — Excellence in all respects
• Customer Service
• Parking and Transportation (in town, from the airports and on 1 -70)
• Communications — (See above reference to using technology to drive
communications.) Starting in advance of the visit (trip planning, road
conditions, etc. and carrying through the entire visit) enhanced
communications with guests and residents may be used for continuous
improvement of the experience.
• Attention to conditions of crowding and lines
• Perception of value
• Continue to track the opinions of year -round and seasonal residents (using
the Community Survey and other sources); "excellent" ratings are the goal.

Physical improvements
• Zoning and other regulatory changes
• Continue to improve the overall residential housing stock and lodging product, both in
function and appearance
• Consider design enhancements and physical improvements to address the desires
and demand from the millennial generation — make best use of scarce land
• Recognize that workforce housing (middle income) remains an important concern,
especially among younger members of the community
• Provide enhanced places to gather (plazas, concert venues, meeting spaces, etc.)
• Continue to develop the trail system for pedestrians and bikes. Maps, signage and
other branded tools can enhance Vail Is reputation for trails.
• Protect and maximize natural resources. Green is expected, especially by the
millennial generation.

Leadership
• Looking to the future, encourage involvement and recruitment from a more
diverse and younger aged resident group
• Encourage new types of training and involvement to cultivate future leaders
• Look for new and better ways to communicate with the younger residents.
Recognize that they are the heavy users of social media — continue to build
the Town's presence in this area as a bridge to the future.
• In keeping with the Vail Council's goal for philanthropic participation, work to
expand the trust, relationships and economic support from all of Vail's
stakeholders — residents, part -time residents, guests and institutions to create
amenities that fulfill long -term economic goals.

Broaden the Sustainable Economy
• Continue to work with the Vail Valley Medical Center to develop a functional
plan that meets corporate and community objectives.
• Work to expand the Eagle Airport in terms of capacity and number of
domestic flights in summer and winter.
• Analyze the potential for "lone eagles" as a component of economic growth
and stability.
• Consider town -owned space for non - profits or other groups that could share
facilities.
• Pay attention to the health of the retail community. Shopping is a vital part of
the guest experience and it can't be taken for granted.

• Limited real estate and limited growth potential. The Town is not equipped for major
growth or quantity, and therefore needs to think more about quality of growth. While
physical growth is limited, economic growth is necessary.
• Town needs to focus on midweek capacity and enhancing volume during these off -
peak days, perhaps by turning attention toward groups.
• Summer growth impacts weekend visitation, and therefore, the focus still needs to be
on the destination guest.
• Park City identified as main competitor. Reasons why? Capacity for expansion,
connectivity, access, downtown renovation.
• Discussion of strategic advantage of DIA's expansion efforts: Could Denver be a
beachhead? Regardless, still need to resolve issues with 1 -70 because people will
not travel out to Vail if those issues persist. 6

• The consistency of the perceived weaknesses of Vail over the past decade is
a concern. However, Vail being expensive is not as much as an issue for the
resort. Parking, crowding, and lift lines are more important areas of focus.
The goal is to spread guests across the mountain.
• Idea of "inclusive luxury."
• Beaver Creek is exclusive luxury.
• How will the second homeowner market transition to younger age cohorts?
By inheritance, not by purchase.
• What tools do we have to impact retail variety?
• Jewelry market is getting worse in town. The consumer has changed,
according to some personal contacts, because of fewer upscale clientele
than in the past. There's also a generational gap with regards for taste for
jewelry not just income dependent. Vail needs to consider retail sales per
square foot. 0

• Our summer visitation is growing, but summer is less expensive than winter
so it's difficult to create seasonal balance.
• What kinds of events or product tweaks should we be offering?
• Discussion on technology and sharing- economy events.
• Some felt we should move away from athletic events.
• We need to turn our attention toward creating facilities; However, when
attempted with the Golf Clubhouse it really backfired; Need to think about our
needs for the future.
• Technological connectivity.
• Idea of aspirational travel, which is supported by reputation. Maybe the
travelers won't do every activity while they are in the location, but it's more
about being in that location itself that is exciting 0

type of facility that meets these demands. New facilities to support
educational, sports, cultural, and multi -day activities .
• Fix infrastructure to expand non - tourism economic opportunities, such as the
Medical Center.
• Define parking issue so that it can be fixed via a strategic plan.
• Leveraging Epic Discovery as an opportunity to attract families.
• Become known as the world's most connected resort.
• Expanding Epic /interactive experience, perhaps through the application of

Summary of Meeting Notes from the July 15 Work Session
• Develop an understanding of product offerings that respond to the next generation.
What do Millennials want, particularly that segment of relatively affluent "up and
comers" that will likely represent our target? How does what this generational
segment wants intersect with what's already available in Vail and done well?
• Develop iconic, multi -day events that respond to next generational needs. Ideally,
target up to 15 events that respond to these needs.
• Identify physical improvements that respond to the needs and wants of the next
generation. Technology, zoning, new uses, enclosed multi - purpose venue are all
areas for consideration.
• Summer is an opportunity.
• Leverage the convenience of Eagle Airport. Expand summer service.
• Vail Valley Medical Center is an asset. Facilitate the success of the facility.
• Define the parking issue and continue to plan plan for parking.
• Epic Discovery. Already in place and can be an opportunity to attract families.

Conclusion and Recommendation
As Vail looks to the future and to opportunities to sustain economic health the RRC
team strongly recommends that the identified Focus Areas receive direct attention.
The findings from this work can be used to underpin community planning efforts across
all areas of Town services. Further, the data presented can be used to refine and
further integrate existing strategic plans (Public Works, Police, Parking, Housing,
Economic Development, etc.) to ensure that Vail is maximizing all its resources to long-
term economic advantage.
Clearly, one consideration that has come from discussions is that the next generations
(Gen X and the Millennials) will be different than the Baby Boomers that helped to build
Vail and to vault the Town and mountain to the forefront of North American
mountain /resort destinations. In considering the sustainable economic future of Vail,
the wants and needs of Generation X and the Millennial Generation should become a
cornerstone of future thinking, to be carefully considered and reevaluated over time.

• Vail Resorts capital improvements — winter and summer
• The Community Survey indicates that Vail is in "good shape" and that there
are no glaring deficiencies. High ratings of service delivery and positive
comments about management and fiscal discipline
• The economic strength of second homeowners, along with their geographic
origins, give Vail broad reach in multiple regions. This is further expanded by
Beaver Creek.
• International Visibility (note that measuring international reputation would
require testing)

SWOTAnalysis
• Perception of value and the actuality of relatively higher costs than most
competing resorts.
• Limited land for expansion and for major new facilities
• Lack of developed space at the base of the mountain for events and
concerts. (The limitations of Gold Peak have been identified. Long term, is
there an opportunity to mitigate some of the physical limitations?
• No true conference facility and limited improved concert and outdoor
gathering spaces

• Workforce and affordable housing — vulnerability to down - valley competition
and to increased costs of labor as overall economy improves
• The parking experience, and issues of price, and supply at certain times
• 1 -70 — both its presence bisecting the Town, and problems of access at peak
times
• The Vail brand may be a turnoff for some, especially the younger set
requires testing to confirm or reject)

• Complacency — doing little to address the long term opportunities and
ignoring trends.
• Divisions concerning which future(s) should be pursued — For example, by
age cohorts, year round /part time residents, Vail Resorts versus the Town,
etc.
• Climate change
• Growth of passes in other regions changing visitation patterns and creating
new loyalties
• Degrading of experience and brand with deteriorating quality or crowded
conditions

• Summer — more competition from multiple sources
• Loss of the baby boomers without a message /product and direction for the
next generation
• Loss or degradation of the local environment through gradual decline or a
big event — Gore Creek, fire, more vegetation kill, population growth,
increased peaking of demand, etc.
• 1 -70 — traffic, noise, trucks, impact on character of Town (in other words, the
highway presents multiple challenges that together represent ongoing
threats).
• Travel industry diversification — new behaviors and choices

• 2015 World Alpine Championships, US Pro Challenge, Burton US Open
Snowboarding Championships, other events that continue to put Vail on the
National and World Stage
• Summer economic growth
• Climate change (relative to competition)
• New event(s)
• Enhance parking experience — (through additional facilities, management
and pricing)
• While available land is limited, there exists the potential to address
competitive opportunities including changing demographics, parking and
various aspects of Vail's identity and brand with physical changes and
improvements. Could include West Vail, EverVail, Frontage Road, Timber

Dear Vail Town Council,
I was very much looking forward to our conversation this afternoon and regret that I am
unable to be with you in person. We have a sick child at home and since my wife is a
teacher and this is the first day of school ... the responsibility for his care fell to me!
I would like to make a few points as to the interests of Eagle County Schools as we
embark on this important discussion about the future of Red Sandstone Elementary.
Eagle County Schools applauds and shares the interests of the Town of Vail to maintain
and further a community that is friendly and accommodating to families. We believe a
quality school located in Vail is important to all of Eagle County.
The district comes with a sense of optimism and an open mind to discussions about the
future of Red Sandstone Elementary. The school has served the community with
distinction and it is consistently one of the district's higher performing schools.
I believe the following considerations must be carefully taken into account as we discuss
the path forward:
• Configurations: The district is open to discussions about different grade
configurations than the current elementary model. Such discussions will
necessarily need to consider the district's portfolio of other schools, especially
those proximal to the Town of Vail.
• Models: The district is open to discussions about different thematic or
pedagogical approaches. Such discussions will necessarily need to consider the
values of the Vail community, other models already in existence in Eagle County,
the competitive nature of school choice in the county, staffing configurations
required for different models, and possible costs associated with different
models.
• Building / Grounds: The district is open to discussions about remodels,
renovations, or scrape/ reconstruct options for the site. Such discussions need to
consider challenges associated with the location, grade, available acreage, and
funding options for a redesigned building. The district is also open to discussions
about how community amenities (such as a theater) might be made part of a
redesign.
• Capacity: The district is open to discussions about adding more students to the
school. Such discussions need to consider the potential growth in
families /children within the current school attendance areas (Vail, Minturn, Red
Cliff) and open enrollment from other parts of the county. We must also consider
how- increased capacity at the Red Sandstone site might affect or create capacity
issues at other schools in Eagle County.
• Diversity: The Board of Education is committed to making our schools
representative of our community and to avoiding configurations which lead to
racial isolation. As such, discussions about the future of the school should
consider these factors.

EAGLE LOUNTY SCHOOLS
Going forward, Eagle County Schools believes a partnership with the Town of Vail to
fullv consider and vet a series of options is the best approach. Through an open,
transparent, and data- informed process, we believe we can arrive at a course that is the
best possible solution for Vail and for all of Eagle County.
Please accept my sincere apologies for not being able to be N rith you in person today.
However, know that I am engaged and excited about working together with you in
making Vail a family friendly community with an exceptional school.
With respect & admiration,

Subject:
Red Sandstone
Members of the Council,
Thank you for taking action to look into the options for Red Sandstone. With the huge class sizes last year and the fact
that the School Board seems to be starving the school (does the gym roof still leak when it rains ?) of funds for
equipment and upkeep, I had to withdraw my kids from the school and go with Plan VMS. A few years earlier than I had
planned but I had to accept when they called. Needless to say that option is very expensive and puts a strain on my life
even with my wife and I working full time. I also think that the RSES staff did an excellent job with my kids in spite of the
limited resources.
As you go forward, please don't take the Charter School option off the table; I suspect the School Board may not like this
option as it would take money away from them. And, even a K -12 school in this location may not need the huge campus
size stated in the paper- urban schools certainly make do with less. Please keep an open mind and be
creative. Expanding the building up and down may not be as expensive as it would seem as the asphalt covered play
area south of the lower level class rooms, mostly held up with a retaining wall, could probably be excavated quite easily
to nearly double the size of the school. Structured parking could also be used to deal with weekend parking shortfall
and perhaps help recoup some of the cost as there would be no need for "free after 3" at that location.
Keep up the good work! Thanks,
Henry

Ford Park Fields Update, Mike Ortiz
The traffic issue was an impetus for the updates to Ford Park Fields. Sports tournament
visitors would like to be in Vail to enjoy the culture, lodging and restaurants of Vail. It
was important to have fields for the sports tournaments to bring them to town. Creating
more space in the area will allow for more events at the field.
Fields are finished. The town staff did a good job getting the work moving. Construction
crews finally caught up. It was important to get the turf down in order to grow before the
temperature drops. There is a still lot of detail work left to do. The new field has much
improved irrigation. Ford Park Fields now has a specific area of a concrete pad for a
stage, and there is lots of power available for concerts.
Quick update on Keen Kids Adventure Games: the evolution of the event from one day
to three helped the overnight stays. Starting events on Thursday helps keep guests in
town.
Financial Report, Judy Camp
Please see attached report document.
Sales Tax is trending up 12.0% from June YoY. Driven by lodging and property
management up about 29 %.
Year -to -date collections through June are up 8.1 % from prior year and 6.0% from
budget.
Inflation as measured by the consumer price index was up 2.1 % for June and up
1.7% for the first half of the year.
Real estate market is improving with real estate transfer tax up 50% from last
year.
Construction use tax up 21 % from last year - seeing uptick in building permits
and remodels as well as an increase in valuations.

Community Survey, Suzanne Silverthorn
Suzanne provided an overview of economic portions of the survey conducted by RRC.
Overall responses to local government accountability and outreach were presented.
Area of improvement is collaborative process and working with residents. Initiative to
push is to get more community members signed up for the TOV email list. Inquiries will
be made about how they like to be reached. The Vail Daily is the best way to reach the
audience at this point. There is a concern regarding housing in the area and improving
community balance and related topics. Another question is regarding support and
opposition for recreational marijuana in Vail. The Vail Valley Partnership is creating an
FAQ regarding recreational marijuana. From the survey, the majority of respondents
said that they did not feel there is enough parking in the town. Concerning special
events, the majority of respondents felt there are just about the right number of events
in town.
Competitive Assessment Report, Kelli McDonald
A high level review of the report presented by RRC was discussed. The SWOT analysis
showed Vail is doing most things well and is at the top in most categories. Areas of
opportunity include value message, embracing younger, affluent clientele and
national /international exposure. Trends showed the existing status in terms of snow
sports and generational differences. Review of different generations and an approach to
Millennials. It was noted that snowboard visitors have dropped overall in the US. The
rising importance of summer visits was explored.
Ski Magazine survey was reviewed:
2011 -2012 - Top Vail strengths are: terrain, variety, snow
2011 -2012 Vail weaknesses — expensive, parking
Value did not score as high in ratings as did other categories
Lodging Metrics
Vail is 5th in summer occupancy and 1 st in winter occupancy.
Vail is 7th is summer ADR, below the aggregate total and 3rd in winter ADR
Need to address value perceptions
Sales Tax Metrics
Only Park City leads Vail in total annual taxable sales for 2013
Breckenridge has more growth in taxable sales since pre- recession peak
Next step in the process is RRC coming to present a follow -up during the August 19'
Town Council work session.

Update on marketing efforts for summer events: Laura Waniuk
Discussion about America Cup, Gourmet on Gore, Vail *Beaver Creek Restaurant week,
update on Farmers' Market. Please see presentation for further information.
Update on evolution of plans for Snow Daze and Vail Holidaze:
Davy Ratchford, Brooke Macke, Vail Resorts and Jeff Brausch, Highline
In the interest of mitigating the historical Snow Daze early December "spike" followed by a fall
back in economic activity the following week, they recommended to move Snow Daze event
back a week to draw more people here to fill in that weekend of Dec 1811 and 19th. Kick off with
a smaller event the weekend of December 12th, cap it off with a bigger event on Dec 18th and
19th. Host some events at Solaris and possibly place something at Lionshead, with the
purpose being to get people to come earlier and stay longer.
The changes are recommended given the slight change to demographic and to become more
family friendly. Events will be in town, as opposed to Ford Park, and in conjunction with
Holidaze. First weekend is come and go weekend, kids have to go back to school, visitors from
the Front Range. The second week caters to destination guest who stays longer. Andrews
discussed how the event weekend "bridge" effect will help drive a little more weekday business
at the lodging locations.
Ratchford stated that the whole concept is under discussion and more research will be
pursued. Jeff from Highline discussed how the current budget for Vail Holidaze will not be able
to sustain the ice skating shows; show costs will be an additional $40k -$50k. The current plan
is to hold the tree lighting, ski down, New Years Eve fireworks and roving animation
characters. Rogers stated that s a large portion of the event budgets are fireworks, McDonald
stated that there is a memo out to the town council for the town to fund all fireworks for events
CSE Minutes Regular M W0 §194ugust 6, 2014 Page 2 of 5
in 2015. Gordon mentioned that perhaps the VVF might be able to sponsor one night of
skating, and maybe there are other entities that could sponsor the skating show. Andrews
stated the CSE would like to see the skating performances kept in the event, so a private
donor option might be a good way to provide the necessary funds. Ratchford stated they were
working with Highline now to discuss how the event will be produced and will bring a plan to
the CSE.
Event Recaps
GoPro Mountain Games: Vail Valley Foundation, Mike Imhof, Paul Abling
Mike Imhof stated that demographics are evolving, and that they have seen change in terms of
who is coming and who is participating in the games. Media coverage has skyrocketed with
GoPro being the sponsor for the second year. There is a lot of interest from brands wanting to
be part of the project, the number of vendors has increased from 83 to 104 over two years.
Gender split is 50/50 with an increase in families. Imhof discussed how the event needs to
evolve to starting earlier to accommodate a broader schedule. Thursday had huge attendance.
They changed the television coverage to 2.5 hours on NBC Sports with a 90 minute show and
60 minute show. Lionshead had some activations, which worked out well but there are
challenges there. The Bad Ass Dash event went well, but was a financial loss. Comments
indicated that the Mud Run, which has historically attracted the largest number of competitors,
was missed. For next year, there are questions about which race will occur in Lionshead. With
the right band playing on Thursday, 22% of people stayed for the concert. People attended
more days this year. Family went from 10% to 24% of attendees.
➢ Motion to approve the recap for GoPro Mountain Games and release the final
funding disbursement.*
M /S /P: Andrews /Cassidy /Unanimous The motion passed 6 -0.
King of the Mountain Volleyball Tournament: King of the Mountain Volleyball, Leon Fell
The tournament increased in participation from 612 to 643 teams, proving that Eagle Vail can
support this kind of event. There was also growth in the number of people who traveled with
the players to the event. Whitaker said that he did a great job on keeping the lodging in Vail,
given that much of the event had to be held in Eagle -Vail due to the ongoing construction in
Ford Park. Andrews stated that he was glad to hear that the junior portion of tournament will
continue to grow. Navas stated that if Leon had done a separate attendance survey, that would
have shown an increase his numbers. The tournament received the honor of being named one
of the Top 5 grassroots Volleyball tournaments by Volleyball Magazine.
Motion to approve the recap for King of the Mountain Volleyball Tournament
and release the funding disbursement.
M /S /P: Cassidy /Kundolf /Unanimous The motion passed 6 -0.
Vail Arts Festival: Eagle Valley Events, Laurie Asmussen
Survey data indicated attendance at 14,722, with 72% of the attendees staying in Vail for the
Arts Festival. She clarified that the construction on the Lionshead Parking Structure made in
difficult to calculate the attendance, as parking counts provide significant information to
CSE Minutes Regular MWRY0 §194ugust 6, 2014 Page 3 of 5
substantiate the calculations. There were 80 artists participating in this year. Asmussen stated
that she had made an investment in hiring event professionals to improve the marketing and
"activation." They worked closely with the Fire Department to make sure that safety issues
were addressed. Asmussen added that they now have 5 years of survey data and noted that
the demographic is aging; the average age of visitor this year was 52, last year the average
age was 48.
➢ Motion to approve the recap for Vail Arts Festival and release the final funding
disbursement.*
M /S /P: Whitaker /Andrews /Unanimous The motion passed 6 -0.
*Final funding disbursements for the Vail Arts Festival and Go Pro Mountain Games will be
held until all vendors licensed for the event have submitted their sale tax remittances.
Update on plan for "Top Shelf Harvest," (funding approved as "Lionshead Fall Wine
Festival ") September 26 -27: Laurie Asmussen, Eagle Valley Events
The plan for the inaugural event for this fall is to hold it in Lionshead, leading up to Vail- Beaver
Creek Restaurant Week. Currently there are 15 distilleries signed up to participate. They
would like to hold the event for one day only, on Friday, September 26. The event would run
from 2pm -7pm. Originally proposed as a 2 -day event, they are keeping in mind the impact on
Arrabelle operations, thus the change in number of days.
Cabal Yarne and Sarah Franke, representing the Lionshead Merchants Association, noted that
it has been a struggle to get the liquor license situation sorted out. The Lionshead Merchant
Association requested that Laurie to make it a one day event, since they will be accepting the
liability for the liquor sales. Franke noted that all groups have been working together
extensively and would like to partner with Laurie to create a phenomenal event with great
attendance.
CSE members expressed concern that a Friday afternoon event is not as likely to attract out of
town guests as one that is held on Saturday. Terri Hanley Reichert from the Arrabelle stated
that the growing Arrabelle business is the reason that they have selected Friday instead of
Saturday. Andrews mentioned that the agreements between all the partners could be a great
model for Lionshead events in the future. Even though the outcome for the event is slightly
different that what was originally proposed, it is still important in order to create relationships
and operational solutions for events like this into the future.
Lionshead Merchant Association will receive the funds from liquor sales. Reichert said she will
go back and discuss with her team at the Arrabelle to find out if the event can be moved to
Saturday instead of Friday.
Motion to approve the proposed one day plan for the event newly titled Vail's
Top Shelf Harvest, and to maintain the original funding allocation of $20,000.
M /S /P: Gordon /Kundolf/ The motion passed 4 -0, with Andrews recusing himself
since he is an active member of the Lionshead Merchants Association, and Whitaker
abstaining.
