5.1. Ordinance No. 24, Series of 2018, Second Reading, An Ordinance
Amending Section 12-23-2, Employee Generation and Mitigation Rates,

Presenter(s): Ashley Clark, Planner
Action Requested of Council: The Vail Town Council shall approve, approve
with modifications, or deny Ordinance No. 24, Series of 2018, upon second
reading.
Background: On October 3, 2017, the Vail Town Council adopted
amendments to Section 12-23-2, Employee Generation and Mitigation
Rates, Vail Town Code, which established revised Employee Generation
Rates by Type of Commercial Use. These changes included an increase
in the number of employees per 1,000 feet of new net floor area for an
eating and drinking establishment from 6.75 employees to 10.2 employees.
In response to this change, a preexisting example provided in Section 12-
23-2C must also be updated in order to be consistent with the changes
made in 2017. There is no material change proposed to the existing
policy. This ordinance will fix an error in the Town Code
Staff Recommendation: The Community Development Department
recommends that the Vail Town Council approve Ordinance No. 24, Series
of 2018.
5.2. Ordinance No.1, Series of 2019, An Ordinance Authorizing the Sale of
Certain Real Property in the Chamonix Vail Development to STK, LLC for
$875, 000
Presenter(s): George Ruther, Housing Director
Action Requested of Council: Approve, approve with modifications, or deny
Ordinance No. 1, Series of 2019 upon first reading
Background: In 2017, the Vail Town Council authorized the development of
the Chamonix Vail Neighborhood in West Vail. Upon doing so, to maintain
affordability of construction, a portion of the development site was reserved
for future residential development. That portion of the site
is legally described as Parcel D, of the Chamonix Vail Community plat.
Upon completion of a real estate appraisal, the Vail Town Council authorized
the town staff to submit the appropriate development application for review to
facilitate the creation of Parcel E in preparation for a future sale. Parcel E
is comprised of Parcel D and a small portion of Parcel A.
A determination was made that it is more cost effective for the town to sell
the property rather than attempting to build affordably on the site. The terms
of the sale, however, do require the future development of at least one deed -
restricted homes on the site.
The Town of Vail has received a contract to purchase the property which
includes a full price offer, and all other terms required by the Vail Town
Council.

TOWN OF VAIL'
Memorandum
To: Town Council
From: Mark Novak, Fire Chief
Date: January 8, 2019
Subject: Resolution No.2, Series of 2019 Eagle Valley Fire Cooperative IGA
I. Purpose:
The purpose of this memo is to provide background information regarding the Eagle
Valley Fire Cooperative IGA.
II. Background
The past several years have been marked by unprecedented collaboration between
Eagle County fire agencies. This collaboration has resulted in improved service to the
citizens and visitors in Eagle County. Examples of this collaboration include; greater use
of mutual aid, the development of protocols to send the closest resource to an
emergency regardless of jurisdiction, multi -agency training, and the development of
multi -jurisdictional workgroups to address special hazards such as technical rescue.
For the past two years the Eagle County Fire Chiefs have placed a great amount of
effort into identifying opportunities in which collaboration could be improved in an effort
to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of service delivery. During this effort a
number of areas were identified in which service delivery could be enhanced by
collaboratively addressing the particular risk. This collaborative model has been
effective in addressing the risk of hazardous materials and is the foundation of the
Regional Hazardous Materials Association of Eagle County (RHMAEC). Participation in
RHMAEC has proven to be a cost effective and effective way to provide hazardous
materials response.
The Eagle Valley Fire Co -Op (Co -Op) will enhance the ability of Eagle County fire
agencies to work collaboratively by providing a mechanism that will provide greater
coordination of training efforts and allow joint -purchasing. Collaborative training is
foundational to this effort as it enhances the interoperability of each agency and
standardizes performance expectations throughout the county. A joint purchasing
mechanism will not only result in cost savings, but will potentially result in
standardization of equipment used throughout the county, which will provide for greater
interoperability. The Co -Op will also serve as a framework for further cooperative
efforts related to activities such as fire investigation, fire prevention, technical rescue,
and wildland firefighting.
January 8, 2019 - Page 10 of 95
The Co -Op is based upon the model currently in place for the Regional Materials
Association of Eagle Count, which the Town of Vail currently participates in. This model
has proven effective in facilitating inter -agency collaboration and improving service
delivery.
The Co -Op does not obligate Vail Fire or the Town of Vail to any specific activity or
financial commitments.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT CREATING
THE EAGLE VALLEY FIRE COOPERATIVE
BETWEEN
GYPSUM FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
AND
GREATER EAGLE FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
AND
EAGLE RIVER FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT
AND
TOWN OF VAIL
This Intergovernmental Agreement Creating the Eagle Valley Fire Cooperative
("Agreement") is executed this day of , 2018, by GYPSUM FIRE
PROTECTION DISTRICT, GREATER EAGLE FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT,
AND EAGLE RIVER FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT, quasi -municipal
corporations and political subdivisions of the State of Colorado ("Districts") and the
TOWN OF VAIL, a home rule town under the Colorado Constitution and a political
subdivision of the State of Colorado ("Town") (Districts and Town being singularly
referred to as "Party" or "Participating Agency" and jointly referred to as "Parties" or
"Participating Agencies").
RECITALS
A. WHEREAS, the Districts are organized and operated pursuant to the
provisions of Article 1, Title 32, C.R.S., to provide fire protection services within the
jurisdictional boundaries of the Districts, which boundaries are located within Eagle
County, Colorado; and
B. WHEREAS, the Town is a home rule Town and political subdivision of the
State of Colorado operating pursuant to Article XX of the Colorado Constitution and
providing fire protection services within the jurisdictional boundaries of the Town within
Eagle County, Colorado; and
C. WHEREAS, the Parties see a present opportunity to create a collaborative,
integrated system of fire protection that is dedicated to reducing community risk through
dynamic community risk mitigation and the consistent delivery of an effective response

{00639812.DOCX /2 }
January 8, 2019 - Page 12 of 95
E. WHEREAS, the Parties recognize the imperative of interagency
interoperability to the safety, effectiveness and efficiency of the Eagle Valley's system of
fire protection; and
F. WHEREAS, the Parties desire to match emergency service to community
risk, and recognize that no single agency possess the necessary resources to meet the
ever-changing and often expanding needs for reducing community risk through
prevention and response; and
G. WHEREAS, the Parties recognize that the ability to provide an effective
response force — the number of personnel, and number and type of resources, required to
stop the progression of an emergency event — relies heavily on interagency integration;
and
H. WHEREAS, integration depends upon the degree to which the participating
agencies interoperate, and the individual response systems of the participating agencies
must work reliability together, regardless of incident type, and the same can be said of
community risk reduction; and
I. WHEREAS, under part 2 of article 1 of title 29, C.R.S., the Parties desire to
establish an Agreement to provide for a collaborative, integrated system of fire protection
within the Eagle Valley; and
J. WHEREAS, establishment of the Agreement will serve a public purpose
and will promote the health, safety, security and general welfare of the inhabitants and
visitors of the Parties and the State of Colorado.
NOW THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the above recitals, the mutual
covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Creation of Eagle Valley Fire Cooperative ("Cooperative"). The Parties
agree to form the Cooperative_as the strategy by which to:
(a) Pursue the goals of collectively matching service to risk;
(b) Ensuring mutual benefit; and
(c) Enhancing interagency integration with respect to community risk
reduction and emergency response.
{00639812.DOCX /2 }

January 8, 2019 - Page 13 of 95
2. Purpose of Cooperative. The purpose of the Cooperative is to
collaboratively match service to risk within the boundaries of the Parties, as
the Cooperative's participating agencies.
3. Ethos of Cooperative. The ethos of the Cooperative is:
(a) Mutual; effective; efficient.
(b) Mutual means that agency participation in the Cooperative should
benefit taxpayers, firefighters and the fire service organization, itself.
(c) Effective means that agency participation in the Cooperative should
result in a measurable decrease in either the incidence or
consequence of emergency events, or an improved ability to stop
their progression.
(d) Efficient means that agency participation in the Cooperative should
result in an enhance ability to provide exceptional service
commensurate with community risk through the responsible use of
public resources.
4. Eagle Valley Fire Chiefs as Board of Cooperative. The Fire Chiefs of
Gypsum Fire Protection District, Greater Eagle Fire Protection District,
Eagle River Fire Protection District, and Vail Fire and Emergency Services
shall be the Board of Directors of the Cooperative. The Board shall have
responsibility for managing and directing the Co -Op including:
(a) Establishing goals and objectives;
(b) Determining priorities for joint training, making recommendations to
the Parties on the funding of a joint training program by the Parties,
and approving an annual joint training plan by November 30 of each
year;
(c) Coordinating joint purchasing;
(d) Creating, managing, and hiring staff to support other joint functions,
including, joint wildland, technical rescue, and other special
operations programs, and approving annual operational plans for
such special operations, if created.
5. Operating Principles of Cooperative. The Cooperative shall have the
following operating principles:
{00639812.DOCX /2 }
3
January 8, 2019 - Page 14 of 95
(a) Participating Agencies will rely on this Agreement and other
intergovernmental agreements entered into by the Parties under this
Agreement to define and govern matters requiring joint decision-
making, including procedures for ensuring joint decision-making,
levels of decision-making authority, and processes for reporting to
respective governing bodies (e.g. fire boards, town councils), or their
designees; and any other subjects deemed necessary by the
governing bodies of the Participating Agencies;
(b) Mutuality will take precedence over the pursuit of effectiveness and
efficiency. While an initiative of the Cooperative may not directly,
simultaneously, or immediately benefit all Participating Agencies or
their taxpayers and firefighters, no initiative should constitute an
immediate or foreseeable detriment to a Participating Agency, its
taxpayers or firefighters; and
(c) Effectiveness will take precedence over the pursuit of efficiency.
Effectiveness measures the distance between actual and desired
outcomes, while efficiency describes the amount and variety of
effort required to achieve an outcome. In order to avoid the creation
of an efficiently ineffective cooperative, the Cooperative will
consistently ask of its Participating Agencies how they might
collectively meet desired outcomes at less cost or through decreased
effort.
6. Creation of Cost -Sharing Agreements. The Parties recognize that
initiatives of the Cooperative will require creation of cost-sharing
agreements among the Parties. The Participating Agencies acknowledge
that no Participating Agency can commit the financial resources of another
without approval by the affected Participating Agency's governing body.
Recognizing the variety in the types of contribution to inter -operability that
each Participating Agency might provide, cost sharing agreements may
include monetary exchange, or an exchange of equivalent value, provided
all such cost-sharing arrangements receive prior approval by the affected
governing bodies. All cost-sharing agreements, regardless of nature, will
become memorialized in an intergovernmental agreement.
7. Single Custodian of Records of Cooperative. To ensure each Participating
Agency has unhindered access to authoritative information, the
Participating Agencies will agree on a single custodian of records to
maintain documents related to the development and function of the
Cooperative.
{00639812.DOCX /2 }

January 8, 2019 - Page 15 of 95

8. Specific Direction on Joint Training Program. Because the consistent
provision of an effective response force starts with comprehensive,
consistent, and collaborative training, the joint training program will
initially focus on the following:
(a) Creating opportunities for interagency and multi -company level
training, providing both didactic and skill -based training that fulfills
the intent of enhancing interoperability between the Participating
Agencies. Training needs specific to individual Participating
Agencies (e.g. job performance requirements constituting minimum
proficiencies according to the National Fire Protection Association),
certification administration, and credentialing will remain the
province of the individual Participating Agency.
(b) Participating Agencies will use the Eagle County Fire Chiefs
Association ("ECFCA") as the forum for determining priorities and
areas of emphasis for interagency and multi -company level training,
with recommendations from the Joint Training Officers Association
("JTOA");
(c) A Training Coordinator will lead the JTOA in developing its
recommendations to the ECFCA and implement the training
priorities as agreed upon by the Participating Agencies;
(d) To ensure unity of command, the Training Coordinator, and any
staff in support of the Training Coordinator, will remain the
exclusive employees of one (and the same) of the Participating
Agencies. However, the Training Coordinator will implement
training priorities and areas of emphasis as agreed to by the
Participating Agencies.
(e) Participating Agencies will memorialize from time to time, in an
Addendum to this Agreement, the process for determining training
priorities and associated training programs, and the means by which
they will share associated costs, including the training coordinator
and support staff, if any.
9. Specific Direction on Joint Purchasing. To the greatest extent possible,
Participating Agencies will seek opportunities to purchase equipment and
services collectively. Recognizing the differing needs of Participating
Agencies, efforts to promote collective purchasing will not oblige another
Participating Agency to purchase equipment concurrently; rather, the
Participating Agencies will pursue potential cost-saving measures as group
contracts, consolidation of shared services (e.g. equipment testing, repair
{00639812.DOCX /2 }
5
January 8, 2019 - Page 16 of 95
6
and maintenance), and equipment specification. The Participating
Agencies will establish a task force, comprised of representatives from each
Participating Agency, to vet potential opportunities for joint purchasing.
10. Specific Direction on Visioning. Though the Cooperative will initially
focus on the first two initiatives of creating joint training and purchasing
programs, the Participating Agencies may consider pursuing future, equally
collaborative efforts. For as much as these initiatives promote the ethos of
mutual, effective and efficient, so could such additional collaborative
efforts as:
(a) Special Operations;
(b) Wildland;
(c) Technical Rescue;
(d) Prevention and Community Risk Reduction;
(e) Fire Investigation;
(f) A collaborative, regional approach to recruitment and retention
programs could assist in promoting long-term stability by
encouraging individuals desirous of living or working in the Eagle
Valley to more clearly see a pathway toward a career in the Eagle
Valley's fire service. Such efforts could include a joint explorer
program and a regionalized training academy. A regional training
academy could also include the agencies of Summit and Lake
Counties, helping all of the Participating Agencies by pooling
sufficient numbers of recruits into class sizes suitable for fire
academy settings.
11. Workers' Compensation and Other Insurance Coverage. Each Participating
Agency shall bear the cost of workers' compensation and other insurance
coverage for employees of Participating Agencies participating in
Cooperative activities.
12. Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement shall be through the
end of the year in which it is entered, and this Agreement shall be
automatically renewed for additional one (1) year terms in perpetuity;
provided, however, that in the event a Participating Agency fails to make an
annual appropriation of funds necessary for it to perform its obligations
hereunder, the Participating Agency may terminate its participation in this
Agreement upon prompt notice to each of the other Participating Agencies
with such termination to be effective as of the last day of the then -current
{00639812.DOCX /2 }
6
January 8, 2019 - Page 17 of 95
year. Additionally, any Participating Agency may terminate its
participation in this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice to the
all of the other Parties for any reason or no reason.
13. Notices. Any formal notice, demand or request pursuant to this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed properly served, given or made, if
delivered in person or sent by certified mail postage prepaid to the Parties
at the addresses listed by the signatures below or as otherwise modified
pursuant to this Section.
14. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only by written document
signed by the Parties.
15. Severability. In the event that any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
this Agreement or their application shall be held invalid as to any person,
entity or circumstance by any court having competent jurisdiction, the
remainder of this Agreement and the application in effect of its terms,
covenants or conditions to such persons, entities or circumstances shall not
be affected thereby.
16. Waiver. The waiver by any Party of any breach by any other Party of any
term, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or other term,
covenant, or condition.
17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the complete agreement
between the Parties regarding the subject matter herein and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, if any.
18. Section Headings. The section headings in this Agreement are inserted for
convenience and are not intended to indicate completely or accurately the
contents of the sections they introduce and shall have no bearing on the
construction of the sections they introduce.
19. No Third -Party Beneficiaries. The Parties to this Agreement do not intend
to benefit any person not a party to this Agreement. No person or entity,
other than the Parties to his Agreement, shall have any right, legal or
equitable, to enforce any provision of this Agreement.
20. Duly Authorized Signatories. By execution of this Agreement, the
undersigned each individually represent that he or she is duly authorized to
execute and deliver this Agreement and that the subject Party shall be
bound by the signatory's execution of this Agreement.
{00639812.DOCX /2 }

January 8, 2019 - Page 18 of 95
21. Counterparts, Electronic Signatures and Electronic Records. This
Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be an
original, but all of which, together, shall constitute one and the same
instrument. The Parties consent to the use of electronic signatures and
agree that the transaction may be conducted electronically pursuant to the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, § 24-71.3-101, et seq., C.R.S. The
Agreement and any other documents requiring a signature may be signed
electronically by each Party. The Parties agree not to deny the legal effect
or enforceability of the Agreement, solely because it is in electronic form or
because an electronic record was used in its formation. The Parties agree
not to object to the admissibility of the Agreement in the form of an
electronic record, a paper copy of an electronic document, or a paper copy
of a document bearing an electronic signature on the grounds that it is an
electronic record or an electronic signature or that it is not in its original
form or is not an original.

A. Contractor shall furnish all labor and materials required for the complete and
prompt execution and performance of all duties, obligations, and responsibilities which are
described or reasonably implied from the Scope of Services set forth in Exhibit A, attached
hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
B. A change in the Scope of Services shall not be effective unless authorized as an
amendment to this Agreement. If Contractor proceeds without such written authorization,
Contractor shall be deemed to have waived any claim for additional compensation, including a
claim based on the theory of unjust enrichment, quantum merit or implied contract. Except as
expressly provided herein, no agent, employee, or representative of the Town is authorized to
modify any term of this Agreement, either directly or implied by a course of action.
II. TERM AND TERMINATION
A. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date, and shall continue until
Contractor completes the Scope of Services to the satisfaction of the Town, or until terminated as
provided herein.
B. Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days advance written
notice. The Town shall pay Contractor for all work previously authorized and completed prior to
the date of termination. If, however, Contractor has substantially or materially breached this
Agreement, the Town shall have any remedy or right of set-off available at law and equity.
III. COMPENSATION
A. In consideration for the completion of the Scope of Services by Contractor, the
Town shall pay Contractor an amount not to exceed $75,000. This maximum amount shall

B. Notwithstanding the maximum amount specified in this Section, Contractor shall
be paid only for work performed.
IV. PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY

and services to be performed by Contractor hereunder shall be done in compliance with
applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations.
C. The Town's review, approval or acceptance of, or payment for any services shall
not be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this Agreement or of any cause of
action arising out of the performance of this Agreement.
D. Because the Town has hired Contractor for its professional expertise, Contractor
agrees not to employ subcontractors to perform any work under the Scope of Services, except for
those explicitly described in Exhibit A.

Nature Center with a brief presentation about beavers, followed by a drive to a beaver
pond and active lodge.
Stories in the Sky: Stargazing — (1.5 hours, 1 evening per week) Participants experience
the mountains of Vail under the stars like never before. From endless constellations and
cascading shooting stars to full moons almost as bright as the sun.
S'Mores and More: Family Campfire Program — (1.5 hours, 2 evenings per week) A
warm campfire, exciting stories of woodland adventures and the sweet smell of burning
marshmallows fill this family program at the Vail Nature Center.

fly-fishing program takes place on select days throughout the summer and is comprised
of education about ecosystem and entomology (study of insects), as well as basic tools

on 1-70 on the west side of Vail Pass, from MM 180 to MM 190.Improvements in this project
study area were included as a part of the preferred alternative CDOT selected in the 1-70
Mountain Corridor Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (1-70 PEIS, a tier 1 National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process). This presentation is an update of the progress to
date and an invitation to a Public Meeting on December 13, 2018 from 4:30 to 6:30 at Donovan
Pavilion. This meeting is critical to hear from the public regarding the potential impacts and
mitigation required to eventually construct the project.
Staff Recommendation: Provide initial feedback to CDOT and encourage the public to attend as
well as Town Council members attendance at the Public Meeting December 13.
Greg Hall, Public Works Director, stated this presentation was for information only. The
purpose of the 1-70 West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project was to improve safety and
operations.
John Kronholm, CDOT project manager, provided more details about widening the east bound
and west bound roadways to 3, 12 -foot lanes and shoulder widths would. Kronholm stated by
adding the third lanes would assist:
• Speed differentials resulting in sideswipes and rear end crashes
• Reduce the number of closures by allowing more width to maintain single lane traffic during
incidents.
• Allowing more room for driver correction.
• Assist with steep grades and tight curves with high number of slow-moving vehicles.
Town Council Meeting Minutes of December 4, 2018 Page 3

A public open house would be held on Dec. 13 from 4:30 to 6:30 pm at Donovan Pavilion for
additional information about the project. The purpose for the open house is to provide the
community with an update on progress since the February 2018 public meeting; gather public
comments regarding the proposed action and to gauge public prioritization of core values
related to design option refinement. Dick Cleveland, the Vail representative for the project,
noted there are 16 bridges on this section of roadway, many of them would be impacted. He
stated there would be impacts on water quality, wildlife, noise, light pollution and recreation. It
would require multiple years of construction and encouraged the community to come to the
open house to make it the best project it could be. Public comment was called. Michael
Cacioppo asked about toll lanes and requiring truckers to stay in right lane. Public comment was
closed. Moffet questioned what CDOT would do to protect our water and if CDOT would ever
getting the funding for the project. Chapin urged citizens to contact legislative delegation and
other state officials to request better, immediate solutions to reduce closures on Vail Pass.
7. Action Items
7.1. Ordinance No. 23, Series of 2018, First Reading, An Ordinance Making
Adjustments to the Town of Vail General Fund Capital Projects Fund, Housing Fund, Real
Estate Transfer Tax Fund, Marketing Fund, Heavy Equipment Fund, and Dispatch
Services Fund.
Presenter(s): Kathleen Halloran, Finance Director and Carlie Smith, Financial Services Manager
Action Requested of Council: Approve or approve with amendments Ordinance No. 23, Series
2018.
Staff Recommendation: Approve or approve with amendments Ordinance No. 23, Series 2018.
Carlie Smith, Financial Services Manager, reviewed the supplemental which requested an
adjustment to the 2018 budget to reflect $4,649,780 of additional revenue and proposed an
increase of $1,836,540 to expenditures. The $1,247,318 increase budgeted revenue would
reflect actual collections in 2018 above and beyond the 2018 original budget. Budgeted revenue
would also be adjusted by an increase of $380,978 which Smith stated was directly offset by
corresponding expenditures. An overall increase in budgeted expenditures of $628,439 included
the remaining $323,723 of expenditures:
✓ $270,000 Council Contribution to be transferred to the Marketing Fund for an elevated Snow
Days event as approved on August 7th.
✓ $7,250 to begin live streaming the DRB and PEC meetings.
✓ $10,000 to restock bus schedule maps
✓ $25,418 for an audit of the town's telecommunication services accounts including land lines,
data, internet, and wireless accounts. The audit will result in annual savings of $26,485.
✓ $11,055 in salaries ($8,305) and benefits ($2,750) for one winter seasonal maintenance
worker and one fulltime winter maintenance worker paired with an irrigation worker. Both of
these positions are included in the 2019 and the 2018 expenditure is to hire these positions
in December.
Additionally, Smith noted the Town received an out -of -cycle contribution request for $5,000 from
the Vail International Hockey Association to help pay for an International trip to China. The
donation would help cover ice time, evening entertainment, uniforms, and other group travel
expenses. Smith stated though this request was not currently included in the first reading of the
Town Council Meeting Minutes of December 4, 2018 Page 4
January 8, 2019 - Page 59 of 95
supplemental, and if Council supported the request it would be included in the 2nd reading on
December 18th.
The supplemental budget ordinance proposed to increase the Capital Projects Fund budgeted
revenue by a total of $2.6 million. The original budget projected a five-year payback, but with
VRA tax collections coming in higher than budget, the payback will span only three years. The
2018 expenditures supplement of $762,000. Included:
• $350,000 from the 2019 budget to upgrade nodes and networking gear for the public "wi-fi"
access system originally installed in 2014.
• $312,000 was requested to be transferred to the Housing Fund for the purchase of a
housing unit at East Vail Lodging (Unit 2) which would become part of the town's employee
rental pool.
• $100,000 was to upgrade the locking system at the municipal building entrances.
The proposed budget adjustments would result in an estimated fund balance of $14.3 million by
the end of 2018.
Increasing the budgeted revenue of the Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT) Fund Staff by
$330,000 to reflect actual RETT collections during 2018. Budgeted revenues would also be
adjusted by an increase of $172,384. This included grant revenues of $13,684 from the Nature
Conservancy to help offset costs for the Intermountain Fuels project. The remaining $158,700 of
revenue would be offset by corresponding expenditures including $8,700 for E -Waste Collection
Day and $150,000 of donations for the Pete Seibert memorial statue "Pete's Dream". Smith
stated to date $169,400 had been raised through community support. With the town managing
the project funding, the full $300,000 project cost must be appropriated, with the donation
revenue as an offset. The remaining $171,500 of expenditures included:
• $75,000 to perform a wildlife mitigation and habitat improvement plan on the East Vail
parcel. This would include an environmental assessment for the National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA).
• $80,000 brought forward from the 2019 budget for design costs for the Nature Center
remodel as approved by Council on September 18th.
• $16,500 real estate transfer tax collection fee to be paid to the General Fund to correspond
with increases in real estate transfer tax collections.
Public comment was called.
❖ Mery Lapin, Vail International Hockey Club representative, stated this would be the 13th
international trip for the players and the 6th trip to China. Lapin stated the trip was an
opportunity for the local youths to interact with different cultures and promote the Town of
Vail. Lapin stated there would be media covering this event.
Moffet made a motion to adopt Ordinance No. 23, Series of 2018 upon first reading as
presented. Bruno seconded the motion. Foley confirmed the current motion did not include the
$5000 for the Vail International Hockey Club. The motion failed 3-3 (Foley, Mason and Coggin
opposed).
Bruno requested more information from the Vail International Hockey Club such as how many
members are Vail residents. Bruno went onto say she did not agree the town should pay for
kids to go on trips and kids should fundraise instead and offered the use of the Donovan
Pavilion for such an event. Moffet agreed. Coggin disagreed and thought this was an
opportunity to invest in the youth in the community. Mason confirmed there would be an
opportunity during second reading to revisit this request.

8. Public Hearings
8.1. Ordinance No. 19, Series of 2018, Second Reading, An Ordinance Repealing and
Reenacting Chapter 14 of the Vail Town Code, Regarding Short Term Rental Properties.
Presenter(s): Kathleen Halloran, Finance Director and Johannah Richards, Sales Tax and
Licensing Administrator
Action Requested of Council: Approve or approve with amendments Ordinance No. 19, Series
2018 upon second reading.
Staff Recommendation: Approve or approve with amendments Ordinance No. 19, Series 2018
upon second reading.
Kathleen Halloran, Finance Director, provided council a short recap of Ordinance No. 19, Series
of 2018 since the first reading on November 6, 2018. Halloran stated on November 13th town
staff met the lodging/condotel group to gather more information. The ordinance and
accompanying tiered fee structure would address many of the concerns that were voiced by
both the property management representatives as well as recent input from the condo-
tel/lodging community.
• Any rental of a residential dwelling unit less than 30 days as a STR requires a registration.
• Allowing "professionally managed" properties to be represented by a designated agent for
the registration process and remittance of taxes.
• Creation of an umbrella application for professionally managed units, so multiple properties
can be registered under one application as long as information on each property is listed.
• Decriminalization of violations of the STR Ordinance. This means that rather than issuing a
summons to municipal court, there is a fine structure for unresolved complaints or violations
of the ordinance.
• Based on feedback from participating citizens, Council agreed to revise the ordinance to no
longer require the property owner's name and contact information on the posting in the
interior of the rental unit. The posting must still contain the contact information of the local
representative.
• A majority of Council agreed to the $150 per property/unit fee during the October 16th
meeting, however based on feedback received from property managers and the condo -tel
lodging community, council directed staff to implement a tiered fee structure. The proposed
fee structure:
✓ $150 per unit fee for individually rented units
✓ A 50% discount ($75) per unit fee for professionally managed properties
✓ A 75% discount ($37.50) per unit fee for professionally managed properties with a
24/7/365 onsite manager ("condotels"). Fractional units will pay per unit, not per owner
March 1, 2019.
Halloran went onto say the ordinance amendments would become effective March 1, 2019.
Public comment was called.
• Bart Cuomo, property management, felt the fees are still too high.
• Magda King, Antlers GM, thanked staff for their efforts. King stated there would be a
hardship since the lodges did not budget for the registration fees.

Vail Homeowners Association
The annual meeting occurred in Town Hall, Conference Room, on December
27th. I spoke to the group on a myriad of topics, including parking, housing,
budget, open meetings and transparency, emerging technologies, wildfire
preparedness, and sustainability. It was a small but engaged group and the
meeting went well.
Eagle River Water and Sanitation District
Linn Brooks and I met on January 2nd to discuss a number of topics and ideas. It
was very productive. It would be beneficial to structure a joint work session
between the District Board and the Town Council, likely to occur mid -spring.
Topics may include the needed improvements related to irrigation at Ford Park,
the proposed 1-70 auxiliary lane project, and related.
CML
The Executive Board met in Denver on December 14th. We reviewed resume
submittals to fill the directorship position being vacated by Sam Mamet. As noted
in the last report, actual interviews will be occurring at the CML facility in Denver
on January 11th. Also as noted previously, we have extended an invitation to
Sam Mamet to attend your second meeting in February, largely for the purpose of
thanking him for his 40 years of service to the League. Details to follow.
CC4CA
Representing the Town of Vail, I have assumed the chair position for the Steering
Committee in 2019. The coalition has grown to 23 municipalities and counties,
with the City of Longmont considering to join at their February Council meeting.
The Steering Committee meets every other month. The schedule should be
manageable.
Etc.
The annual Public Works Holiday Lunch occurred prior to the Holiday season.
And it was very well attended. Thanks to Susie Hervert, Dave Richardson, and
others for putting it together.

Civic Area Planning Update
From our Community Development Department:
The Civic Area Plan master plan effort kicked off last month with a well -attended
public open house on December 11th and the launch of a new web -based public
engagement tool, www.EnqageVail.com. The site offers opportunities for the
public to take part in surveys, discussions and provides on-line information -
sharing throughout the planning process. To help get the conversation started,
the town has invited community members and all who love Vail to visit
engagevail.com, register, and take a short survey.
In the three week time period between December 10th and Jan 2nd
engagevail.com has received 439 site visits, 150 new registered users, and 66
completed surveys. The survey will close on Friday, January 25. In the
meantime, the project team will continue to market and update the
engagevail.com site.
In addition to this robust web -based engagement platform, the project team have
reached out to many stakeholder groups including; Vail Recreation District,
Dobson Ice Arena, Vail Public Library, Vail Economic Advisory Committee, Vail
Local Marketing District, Vail Chamber & Business Association, Commission on
Special Events, Eagle River Youth Coalition, and will continue to have on-going
conversations with adjacent property owners including; Vail Resorts, Vail Health,
Evergreen Lodge, Vail International, and Lodge at Lionshead III.
After this first window of public engagement, the project team will present the
survey results along with recommended next steps to Council on February 19.
A second window of public engagement will then open and run through March.
The second window will engage the public with more probing questions based on
the initial feedback received during the first window and will begin to shape the
direction of the Civic Area Plan. The second window of public engagement will
provide a basis for development scenarios and include analysis of master plan
level programming anticipated to be reviewed late this spring and early summer.
Update on Bighorn Sheep Study
From our Sustainability Team:
The second meeting for the East Vail bighorn sheep habitat improvement project
is scheduled for the afternoon of Jan. 11th. The agenda will include a
presentation by wildlife biologists on the purpose, need, history, and
recommended actions on town -owned, USFS, and privately held land. Action
items will likely include hand cutting, timber stacking, pile burning, broadcast
burning and fertilization. Due to the government shutdown, critical members of
the USFS may not be in attendance.
Staff will continue work to prepare the appropriate NEPA documents in hopes
that we are able to work with our agency partners again soon.

Town Hall Renovations
New chairs have arrived and now adorn the Town Council Chambers. Together
with the acoustic panels, we are hoping that the meeting room is becoming more
suitable for the large volume of Town business that occurs in the venue. The old
chairs are finding a new home.
Related, the area across the hall from the Chambers, inclusive of the reception
area and administrative offices, will be having a bit of a facelift beginning January
16th. The small renovation will consist of walls being painted, new carpet, new
office furniture and desks, and perhaps most importantly, modification of the solid
doors to include semi -transparent glass. This is being conducted internally, with
great thanks extended to John King and the Public Works facilities crew.
The renovations should span about three weeks. The Assistant Town Manager
and Town Clerk's office will be temporarily relocated to the Community
Development building while the Finance Director and Finances Services Manager
will be relocated downstairs of the municipal building. This will allow staff to
continue to provide excellent customer service to our citizens and guests.
And on the topic of Town Hall, we were again treated to the talents of our local 4th
grade school kids who came to carol prior to the Holidays. They were bussed in
from the temporary facilities in Minturn. We of course returned the favor with lots
of candy.
Budget Message
We are currently working on the Budget Message which will be completed in the
near term, inclusive of a narrative of important budget trends and projections, a
quick summary of important capital projects, and other significant items. The
intent is to provide this in a very easy -to -ready format. The Message will be part
of the entire Budget Document.
Housing Summit
Pasted below is the announcement for the upcoming U.S. Mountain Community
Summit. George Ruther with the Housing Department has been working with the
other hosting stakeholders to put the three-day conference together. It looks to
be an impressive line-up of topics and events, and quite relevant. As a co-
sponsor of the event, the Town will be receiving two complimentary tickets to the
Summit. Additional budget is available if others are interested in attending.

the zoning regulations are for "promoting the health, safety, morals, and general
welfare of the town, and to promote the coordinated and harmonious development of
the town in a manner that will conserve and enhance its natural environment and its
established character as a resort and residential community of high quality". This text
amendment is intended to advance these purposes by providing consistency within the
regulations and provide clear direction for development in how to calculate the correct
commercial linkage fee.
The PEC finds that this criterion has been met.
2. The extent to which the text amendment would better implement and better
achieve the applicable elements of the adopted goals, objectives, and policies
outlined in the Vail comprehensive plan and is compatible with the development
objectives of the town; and
The PEC finds that the proposed text amendment would provide a correct and
consistent example of how to calculate the commercial linkage fee and reflect the
Town of Vail's most recent policy update from October 3, 2017, where Town Council
approved changes to how the employee generation and mitigation rates are
calculated.
The PEC finds that this criterion has been met.
3. The text amendment demonstrates how conditions have substantially
changed since the adoption of the subject regulation and how the existing
regulation is no longer appropriate or is inapplicable; and
The existing example in the text is no longer correct and needs to be changed to
provide an accurate example.
The PEC finds that this criterion has been met.
4. The extent to which the text amendment provides a harmonious, convenient,
workable relationship among land use regulations consistent with municipal
development objectives; and
The PEC believes the proposed text amendment is intended to provide consistency
Town of Vail Page 2
January 8, 2019 - Page 79 of 95
with the existing regulations for employee generation and mitigation rates, and is
therefore seeking to provide a harmonious, convenient and workable relationship
among land use regulations consistent with municipal development objectives.
The PEC finds that this criterion has been met.
5. Such other factors and criteria the planning and environmental commission
and/or council deem applicable to the proposed text amendments

SUBJECT: A request for a recommendation to the Vail Town Council to update
Section 12-23-2 Employee Generation and Mitigation Rates, Vail Town
Code, for consistency with changes adopted by Town Council in
Ordinance 12, Series of 2017.
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Ashley Clark
I. SUMMARY
On October 3, 2017, the Vail Town Council adopted amendments to Section 12-23-2,
Employee Generation and Mitigation Rates, Vail Town Code, which established revised
Employee Generation Rates by Type of Commercial Use. These changes included an
increase in the number of employees per 1,000 feet of new net floor area for an eating
and drinking establishment from 6.75 employees to 10.2 employees. In response to this
change, a preexisting example provided in Section 12-23-2C must also be updated in
order to be consistent with the changes made in 2017. There is no material change
proposed with this request; this request is an administrative update.
II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
The Community Development Department is requesting that the Planning and
Environmental Commission forward a recommendation of approval to the Vail Town
Council for an amendment to Section 12-23-2C, pursuant to Section 12-3-7,
Amendment, Vail Town Code, to allow for the update of the example to be consistent with
Table 23-1.
The proposed amendment is as follows (text to be deleted is in strikethrough, text that is
to be added is bold. Sections of text that are not amended have been omitted.):
A. The employee generation rates found in table 23-1, "Employee Generation Rates
By Type Of Commercial Use", of this section, shall be applied to each type of use in
a commercial development. For any use not listed, the Administrator shall determine
January 8, 2019 - Page 84 of 95
the applicable employee generation rate by consulting the Town's current nexus
study.

B. If an applicant submits competent evidence that the employee generation rates
contained in table 23-1 of this section or the nexus study do not accurately reflect the

feet of new net floor area for an eating and drinking establishment, the equation would
be as follows:

VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
ITEM/TOPIC: Ordinance No.1, Series of 2019, An Ordinance Authorizing the Sale of Certain
Real Property in the Chamonix Vail Development to STK, LLC for $875,000
PRESENTER(S): George Ruther, Housing Director
ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve, approve with modifications, or deny
Ordinance No. 1, Series of 2019 upon first reading
BACKGROUND: In 2017, the Vail Town Council authorized the development of the Chamonix
Vail Neighborhood in West Vail. Upon doing so, to maintain affordability of construction, a portion
of the development site was reserved for future residential development. That portion of the site
is legally described as Parcel D, of the Chamonix Vail Community plat.
Upon completion of a real estate appraisal, the Vail Town Council authorized the town staff to
submit the appropriate development application for review to facilitate the creation of Parcel E in
preparation for a future sale. Parcel E is comprised of Parcel D and a small portion of Parcel A.
A determination was made that it is more cost effective for the town to sell the property rather
than attempting to build affordably on the site. The terms of the sale, however, do require the
future development of at least one deed -restricted homes on the site.
The Town of Vail has received a contract to purchase the property which includes a full price offer,
and all other terms required by the Vail Town Council.

Memorandum
To: Vail Town Council
From: George Ruther, Housing Director
Date: January 8, 2019
Subject: Ordinance No. 1, Series of 2019
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of Ordinance No. 1, Series of 2019, is to authorize the sale of certain real
property in the Chamonix Development to STK Capital, LLC for $875,000.
Pursuant to the Vail Town Charter, authorization from the Vail Town Council is required
to sell town -owned real estate property.
This action furthers the goals and priorities outlined in the Vail Town Council Action Plan
2018 — 2020.
11. BACKGROUND
The Vail Town Council authorized the development of the Chamonix Vail Neighborhood
in West Vail. In doing so, a development plan was established and the new
neighborhood was built. During the design phase of the development it was determined
that a portion of the site was challenging to build upon affordably and better suited for
free-market residential development at a later date. Free-market development is
permitted in the Housing (H) district. With that in mind, the Chamonix Vail Community
Townhouse Plat was subsequently created, setting aside Parcel D for future
development.
On November 20, 2018, the Vail Town Council instructed the Housing Department staff
to prepare and submit the development applications needed to facilitate the sale and
subsequent residential development on Parcel D, pursuant to the provisions of the
Housing (H) district. Further, the Town Council affirmed the terms of the sale of the
property, including the sales price which based upon a recently completed real estate
appraisal, and instructed staff to actively begin marketing the property for sale. Any
sale would be contingent upon the Town's verification that an amended final plat had
been recorded. An advertisement announcing the sale of the property ran in the Real
Estate Section of the Vail Daily the week of December 17, 2018. Upon receiving four
inquires to the advertisement the property went under contract for purchase.
January 8, 2019 - Page 90 of 95
III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The town staff recommends the Vail Town Council approves Ordinance No. 1, Series of
2019, on first reading. In forwarding this recommendation, the town staff finds the real
estate contract meets or exceeds the terms affirmed by the Vail Town Council on
November 20, 2018.
