2. A request for a worksession for a conditional use permit to allow for an outdoor dining
deck located at Garton's Saloon located at 143 East Meadow Drive/a part of Lot P,
Block 5-D, Vail Village 1 st Filing.
Applicant: Dave Garton
Planner: Randy Stoudl
Randy Stouder made a presentation per the staff memo and requested that the PEC
focus • Section IV, Discussion Issues, • the staff memo.
Dave Garton stated that he would like to see the ranchyard operation stay open until
10:00 p.m. each night as the restaurant remains open until 10:00 p.m. and patrons like
to eat outside during the summer months.
Rick Richards, the Manager of Garton's Saloon, stated that patrons seem to prefer to
have dinner outside in the summer months and tend to dine later in the evening than
during the winter season. He stated that they wanted the ranchyard primarily for giving
patrons a pleasant dining experience.
Dave Garton presented the PEC with a diagram showing the ranchyard setup from last
year and explained that they were proposing two speakers this year as opposed to the
four speakers they had last summer. Dave stated that they would be utilizing taped
music. He stated that there would probably not be live entertainment and that they
planned to have mainly taped music with a disc jockey.
1JJ[ff,;-3JMJM=4 r In • I' ♦ Im � • r 1;
Rick Richards stated that they would play a wide variety of music including jazz,
country, and rock and that they had contracted with a cable company that has thirty
different channels of music.

Dan Telleen, owner of Karat's, stated that he preferred to leave his door of his shop
open during the summer and that he was concerned that this would make his store
excessively noisy.
Audrey McLean, an adjacent property owner, stated that the noise from Garton's was
very disruptive last summer and that the value of her property has decreased because
• these problems.
Kathy Langenwalter asked Jeff Layman to explain how the Town of Vail handleiv
complaints such as those about Garton's.
Jeff Layman of the Vail Police Department stated that there was an increase in
complaints along Meadow Drive in the Garton's vicinity last summer about boisterous
behavior. He said he needed to review the information more thoroughly in or er to
answer Kathy's question • enforcement procedures.
Rick Richards explained he had contacted the Town Attorney to obtain information or
complaints received by the Police Department. He stated that eleven incidents had
been reported, beginning late August of 1993.
an Telleen asked whether Rick's report showed what time of day the complaints
occurred.
Rick Richards went through his list and stated the times for the several incidents whic
occurred around 2:00 p.m., the closing time at Garton's.
Dan Telleen stated that the existing noise ordinance does not control noise adequately.
He added that he had similar problems with Sheika's deck when his shop was located
on Wall Street. He suggested that the decibel level be reduced in the ordinance during
late hours, i.e. 9:00 to 10:00 p.m. The battle of the bands is not appropriate.
Ann Louthan, representing the Village Center Condominium Association, stated that
she tended to agree with Audrey's comments and that amplified music seemed to be
major concern for her condominium owners.
Greg Amsden stated that he rented in Village Center last fall and that the Village in
general was noisy.
*ave Garton stated that they never intended to have amplified sound after 10:00

Ah Packy Walker, owner of the Lifthouse Lodge, stated that it may be necessary to modify
Mr the noise limit on amplified sound. He had installed double glazed windows to help cut
down on the noise at his condominiums. He also said a balance needed to be struck
between street activity on decks and residential owners wanting peace and quiet in the
core areas.
Greg Amsden stated that he approved of the new speaker placements. He felt that the
crowd noise on Friday afternoons would always exceed • decibels. He felt that 9:30
p.m. was an appropriate time to close down the ranchyard if you wanted people off of
the deck by 1 0:00 p.m. The decibel limit will be addressed by the Council in the sount'
ordinance.

Dave Garton stated that he would like to submit a petition with four hundred signatures
into the record for the PEC to review. He read the names of the businesses to the
PEC who had signed the petition in favor of the Garton's outdoor dining deck.
Kathy Langenwalter stated that she was in agreement with the other board members'
comments. She said that Dalton's suggestion about consulting a sound engineer was
a good one. She felt that the Garton's ranchyard area was in need of a lot of clean up
and repair and that she was concerned with the condition of the wheelchair lift and
suggested that it should be made more attractive.
Dave Garton stated that they did not own the wheelchair lift and that any concern
about it should be brought to Steve Stafford's attention.
Kathy Langenwalter asked Randy to research the history ♦ the wheelchair lift.
Kathy Langenwalter stated that she would like to see the landscaping planted before
the conditional use permit allowing the deck this summer goes into effect.
Jeff Bowen felt that Dave Garton should get together with Dan Telleen before openinit
in order to ensure that there will not be the same noise issues that there were last
summer.

permit to allow for an outdoor restaurant, bar, and dining deck operation at the
Garton's Saloon, Crossroads Center, located at 143 East Meadow Drive/Lot 1,
Block 5D, Vail Village First Filing.
Applicant: Garton's Saloon/Dave Garton

F_ Conditional Use
The proposed operation is allowed as a conditional use per the aforementioned sectiOrfs'
18.28.040(l) and 18.28.030(E) of the Municipal Zoning Code.
IV.
A. Land Use Plan
The Land Use Plan/Goals and Policies specify the following:
"35 Entertainment oriented businesses and cultural activities should be encouraged
in the core areas to create diversity. More night time business, on-going events
and sanctioned "street happenings" should be encouraged."
The Vail Village Master Plan does encourage the development • a variety of new
commercial activity where compatible with existing land uses, and specifies the
following policy to achieve this objective:
11 3.3.2 E2 Lim
Outdoor dining is an important streetscape feature and shall be
encouraged in commercial infill or redevelopment projects."
As this is a worksession, staff has not analyzed the conditional use permit criteria. We hav6
listed them below for the Planning and Environmental Commission's (PEC) information.
00
Before acting on a conditional use application, the Planning and Environmental
commission shall consider the following factors with respect to the proposed use:
1. Relationship and impact of the use on development objectives of
the Town.
E
9
2. The effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population,
transportation facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation
facilities, and other public needs.
M
Issue #1:
Will the hours of operation 4:00 to 9:00 p.m. adequately control the crowd and
will the patrons actually move off of the parking deck at 9:00 p.m.?
The deck should be cleared completely of patrons by 9:00 P.M; music must be
off by 9:00 P.M. or
i ce_ with 15 minutes to move guests
inside or off of the premises. The applicant proposes to increase the number of
tables. This request should be looked at closely.
E
I.
Issue #2:
The applicant proposes amplified pipe music out to the ranchyard area.
Piped music must meet the noise ordinance which specifies a maximum
number of decibels permitted at 65 decibels (d/b) between
it a.m. and 11:00
p.m. (See Ordinance No. 1, Series • 1•91). The changes to the speaker
locations and numbers are positive.
Is live music acceptable on the outside deck and should that be allowed as part
of the conditional use permit criteria?
Live music is acceptable to staff as long as the sound ordinance is met.
Issue #4-
Does the PC still feel that the parking situation of last year worked effectively
and should we continue with the same situation of providing the valet parking
spaces and allowing the ranchyard setup to remain in place during the day?
WMIM
Staff would like to hear the business and condominium owners' comments
concerning this issue.
Should the term of the conditional use permit be restricted to the propose*
seasonal operation of one year at a time?
70MRMMi r-01 r «r If . 1 9 1 1 AM 010
The loading activity from last year has created an eyesore along the Frontage
Road. The applicant accessed the parking deck directly off of the Frontage
Road and used this area to unload band equipment, food, liquor and other
k,
items. Staff feels that last year's loading situation is inappropriate and most
likely used US 6 right-of-way. The loading activity also blocked access to a fire
hydrant occasionally.
, I a-
Staff feels that a new solution needs to be arrived at for the loading issue an*
that Garton's should propose a different loading area. We also would like to
see this area revegetated.
7*hould the exterior appearance of the ranchyard be improvecZr
LIM
Staff believes that the lighting, landscaping, retaining wall and siding along ti
entry deck need to be upgraded. We are also concerned about the storage
which occurs on the parking and entry decks.
Staff believes that certain activities such as the horseshoe pits may have been
operated off-site on Town or State property in the right -of -way.
Staff Response:
Staff feels that all activities associated with the ranchyard should be contained
on the applicant's property,
Banners and flyers became a problem at times last year. The applicant put U�_
the banners and flyers advertising activities at the ranchyard.
— , a- 00 .
Staff has determined that banners and flyers are illegal under the Sign Code
and will not be allowed to be displayed around Town or at the ranchyard or
exterior of the Saloon.

be allowed to remain in place, and that he not be required to remove everything from the parking area
each day, as the parking requirements were being met. The PEC determined that Mr. Garton's
modifications to the parking plan did not have negative impacts and were acceptable. Attached are

Jeff Bowen stated that the parking structure was not full most of the summer I except f'I
the 4th of July and the bike races. He wondered whether it would be possib e for

Dave Garton stated that he would be sensitive to the parking situation at such times
and explained that the whole idea of this project was predicated on the summer off -
season.
Diana Donovan stated that the they needed to determine what the total parking
requirement was for Crossroads so that the PEC could be sure that they were making
consistent decisions.
Kathy Lan genwalter inquired how informed fellow tenants at Crossroads were of this

conditional use permit.
Kathy Langenwalter stated that she had no objection to the conditional use permit but
parking was a concern to her. She said that valet parking would be a workable
solution for the loss of parking spaces during evening hours but wondered whether the

Kristan Pritz stated that continuity in decisions is important but that the individual
circumstances of each situation deserved to be looked at as well.

that the second issue is to devise a parking stipulation that will allow the applicant to
move forward.

The Town of Vail Engineer has requested that the face of the garage be located a mul
distance of 24 feet from the edge of asphalt. This request is based upon the TowZs in n i ece
for snow plowing and snow storage. The applicant's design meets the 24 foot requiremen
Since the initial PEC worksession, and at the request of the PEC, the applicant has
redesigned the parking layout to provide all the required parking on-site. Two parking spaces
are proposed to be located within the garage, and two parking spaces would be located to the
east and west sides of the garage, on the bridge deck. In order to provide all the required
parking on-site, the applicant has widened the bridge deck (please see the attached site plan).
According to the project architect, the widening of the bridge deck has created the need for a
retaining wall to be located beneath the deck to support the road base (Sierra Trail). The

Ill. BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
The staff has researched the Town files with regard to previous reviews of projects of a similar
nature. The following is intended to give the PEC an understanding of the review of previous
actions:
The applicant could remove a portion of the garage
which would decrease site coverage. However, the staff's
opinion is that it is preferable to have all of the required
parking enclosed to avoid a view of parked cars and
retaining walls."
The PEC's motion for approval was per the findings listed in the staff memorandum
with three conditions of approval. The conditions of approval dealt with the
landscaping and revegetation proposed for the property.
Because this is a worksession, the staff will not address eacff
Section 18.6 2.060 • the Vail Municipal Code. The staff has provided the variance review
criteria below for the PEC's evaluation:
1. The relationship of the requested variance to other existing or potential
uses and structures in the vicinity.
2. The degree to which relief from the strict and literal interpretation and
enforcement of a specified regulation is necessary to achieve
compatibility and uniformity of treatment among sites in the vicinity or to
attain the objectives of this title without grant of special privilege.
3. The effect of the requested variance on light and air, distribution of
0
population, transportation and traffic facilities, public facilities and
utilities, and public safety.
B. The Planning and Environmental Commission shall make the followiaqlp�
before granting a variance:
3. That the variance is warranted for one or more of the following reasons:
The staff has identified the following issues and/or concerns which we believe should be a
•,zsis for discussion at the worksession:
ONEIRM-10 =I
Does the PEC believe that there is a physical hardship on this property, and that there
are special circumstances on this site that are unique to this property, such that
support for the three variances can be granted? Staff feels that consideration should
be given to the steep slopes on the site, and the distances (both horizontally and
vertically) between the existing edge of asphalt and the applicant's southernmost
property line. The staff does acknowledge that cutting a driveway onto this site would
be extremely difficult, if not impossible, and that wall height variances and perhaps a
driveway grade variance would be necessary in order to accomplish any type of
reasonable grade for a driveway.
1
0
C. Site Coverage
Does the PEC believe that the site coverage variance request meets the criteria?
EIMM��" i
A total of 15 mature aspens (4" circumference or larger) will be removed as a result of
this project. Should the applicant be requested to eliminate the secondary unit in order
to minimize site disturbance? This would reduce the total parking requirement down to
two or three spaces, depending on the size of the dwelling unit. This would also
eliminate the need for an expanded parking deck.
1 A revised site plan, which shall indicate all ridge lines for the roof, with
