2018 Town of Vail Community Survey | OPEN COMMENTS
The 2018 Vail Community Survey is designed to provide input to staff and decision makers based on responses from Vail residents, seasonal residents (including second homeowners), business owners, and workers that may be employed in town but live outside. The 2018
Community Survey used methods virtually identical to those used in 2016, 2014, 2012 and 2010, which permits comparisons of results over time. As in past surveys, this year’s program resulted in statistical measures of many topics that are of interest to the community. Those
results are presented under separate cover. The survey contained a number of opportunities for survey respondents to answer in their own words, and these comments represent several hundred pages of input. With this tool, you may sort and view the survey responses to
questions that you select. Click below to select the question you would like to view. Comments may be filtered by additional respondent attributes, such as their length of residency, by clicking the down arrow next to the column header.
This shape represents a table slicer. Table slicers are supported in Excel or later.
If the shape was modified in an earlier version of Excel, or if the workbook was saved in Excel 2007 or earlier, the slicer can't be used.

Sometimes it feels as if the TOV's driving force for hosting events is merely to increase sales tax revenues. I think Vail is a product of its own success,
but has lost a lot over the years in that it has lost the 'ski town' feel. The fact that approximately 90% of the residences in Vail are owned by
individuals who do not reside in Vail speaks volume to the loss of community.

I don't attend the concerts because I've never heard of any of the artists. I would rather see the town bring in an artist I'd actually heard of and sell
tickets for a reasonable fee ($10 - $30 depending on the artist). I went to a concert in Solaris Plaza once and I had to go to the hospital after I was
shoved onto the ground and stepped on by numerous people. Solaris Plaza is not an appropriate concert venue- the buses have to be re-routed, foot
traffic is impeded, and there is not space to view the concert without experiencing a mosh pit.

I strongly support Bravo, Vail Jazz and the International Dance Festival, and I attend some events at Vilar and some of the summertime street events
(food festivals mostly; Vail Film Festival). But the rock concerts associated with most winter events are of no interest at all to me or anyone in my
household.

I liked the 'walk way' that was created during the Burton Open concert. It allowed people to get through quickly without making the concert go-ers
move and get angry (potentially.) I was meeting friends near Solaris and I could maneuver through the crowd. Much better than past concerts where
you would have to push your way through.

I would like to see us be more careful in the allocation of our public spaces for events. They are profitable for event promotors, and the case is
ALWAYS made that they are benefitting 'the town,' but those of us living through them grow tired of new traffic patterns, new vendors, new
operators and periodic renegotiation of who has the 'right' to which use on a street. Those of us who live and work in the areas of the special events
are heavily impacted, and not always for the better.

Re attracting younger people... We know older folks have more disposable income, but we're becoming too much of a retirement community. When I
arrived in the '80s, everyone was young. Those same people keep coming (and living here), they're older and have more money now, but we need to
appeal to younger folks so they'll also come for decades. Some of the older folks, and especially Vail pioneers, seem to forget what they were able to
accomplish in their 20s, 30s, and 40s - and don't extend the same courtesy to younger residents and guests. They want to keep the town for

The town of Vail does not properly match funding with expenditures in that they do not use debt appropriately to fund long term assets. They fund
such capital items from current tax receipts. Accordingly tax revenues are used inappropriately and the tax base could be reduced by better matching
of revenue sources with expenditures. Need more qualified financial people dealing with these issues.

I don't understand the rational behind many of Vail's summer events. The events are strange choices, there are multiple events going on at once,
some of them are poorly advertised, I can't keep track of where they are taking place for when a visitor asks me for directions, the locals fill up the
parking structures before any out-of-town visitors have a chance to park- it's just a bad combination.

I think most in town concerts are aimed at a younger crowd because that is who goes to them. But I find lots of concerts I enjoy (even for just a few

job finding something for almost everyone.

I am interested in, and supportive of, 'marquis' events such as Burton even where they are not an economic boon for everyone (and it is not for me). I
am leery of 'developemental' events that feel they need to access the main commercial areas to succeed, even as they represent that they are
delivering new customers to Vail. I am also strongly interested in requesting event promotors to budget time and workers to keep non-event street
disruption to an ABSOLUTE MINIMUM. It is not good for a guest to walk by empty tents and dirty tables, or closed-up areas awaiting the start of

Events are good but I think we should look larger. Especially for off season and even Winter when we have no snow. Develop a physics / math
institute and or build an Olympic sized pool with water park. Teams would come and train and also kids have a great feature to push their parents to
some to vail - especially in winter when no snow.

I have mixed feelings about the role of government in promoting what I feel should be privately sponsored events. Some events need the in-kind
services that only a governmental entity can provide, But in the end I feel events should stand on their own merits. I would like to see the resort
company more involved with financial support for events particularly now that they are gaining revenue from the expanded on mountain summer
activities. For the most part I feel the TOV strikes a pretty good balance,

Events that have a positive value on Vail are those that are based upon performing arts (no a DJ is not an artist). These events attract people who
invest in Vail both in the short term (hotels, dining, shopping) and long term. Concerts such as those associated with spring back and Burton attract a
crowd who is going to buy a case of PBR at Beaver Liquors and some marijuana in Eagle-Vail, they do not shop in Vail.

Its great that vail has brought in all these various events but, they did not do all their homework i.e. where are they going to park all the cars? This
issue detracts from the enjoyment when you have to park 1.5 miles from town and hike in. After a day of enjoyment and being tired you then have to
hike 1.5 miles back to your car.

The quality of performers is stale. It's the same people year after year and the same sponsors with lousy beer and wine selection. Get some hot
entertainment or up and coming acts. Arlo Guthrie and Paul Riser are not acceptable. Especially at Vail's concert ticket prices. The Vail Film Festival
needs new direction. There's no reason why it's not a top draw with it's proximity to airports and it's hotel accomodations.

I think the town needs to focus on quality over quantity. Also look at how many people will be impacted by event vs how many people in town are
interested. An event is only successful if the town residents embrace it and are excited about it. Bike races in particular,roundabouts are hard enough
without bike races going through it every weekend. And how much do these people really spend, they seem to be interested in free or discounts for
participanting. And please bring in bands that bring in people who spend money, instead of a bunch of high children.

We need to do a better job with education of marijuana laws to our guests and our locals. There needs to be consequences for not following the law.
Smoking in public areas, is something that needs to be addressed. There is an attitude of looking the other way when it comes to people smoking
marijuana in public. It's as if there aren't any laws against it. I went to see Damian Marley. I had to leave before he ever came on stage because of
so many smoking and too many people crammed into a tiny space. I was afraid for myself and my family. The crowd was dangerous and we are lucky

Stop subsidizing housing - it is a losing proposition. If you would let the market dictate prices, then employers would have to raise wages to allow
their employees to choose appropriate housing within their budget. But No, you subsidize - say,1m to 750k - 3brd homes. Just wait a decade and
watch the buyers go ballistic over capped appreciation. You will never be able to subsidize housing vs. the overall market. Hasn't worked yet, has it?

Contributing to events such as Bravo seems likely to bring an overall financial benefit to Vail. Spending on concerts for young folks does not seem like
it would be economically helpful to Vail. We need prioritize funding for events that draw people willing and able to spend money on goods and
services provided by Vail merchants, while providing a balance that does not alienate the younger generations.

Overall, I am in favor of the town taking a role in promoting events (and by extension, investing in them). And as it currently stands, I think the town is
striking the right balance. That being said, the town should exercise restraint in this and continue to be selective in the events chosen (ones that
genuinely promote economic activity and are in keeping with Vail's overall development strategy).

CSE seems to be doing a good job of screening events, but it seems that funding should be reduced when the events go beyond 'start-up' unless the
Town gains significant national/international recognition (e.g., Ski Championships, Burton, Bravo, Dance festival) or other significant benefit. The
Town is always contributing 'in kind' due to the infrastructure costs of setting up, securing and cleaning up after events - blocking roads and rerouting
buses, clean-up crews, re-missioning parking lots for staging for some events, managing overflow parking and/or paid parking, etc.

I think a better analysis needs to be done of the payback there are dollar benefits, but also sometimes the benefit is for reputation. Sadly on the ski
side Vail for many years was rated #1 & in the 90's when it slipped much thought was put into how to regain that position, instead I don't think Vail is
even in the top 20 any more, certainly not in the top 10 and that is a shocking decline in a generation!
