Mike ollica Andy Knudtsen Randy Stouer Jim Curnutte Lauren Waterton ill Anderson asked whether the overhead power lines and transformers would be removed from the site. Rat Dau inais responded that they would be removed from the site. Bob Armour was concerned about the disturbance that would result from the removal of an intake pipe from Core Creek, however, he did feel that it did need to be removed. Greg Amsen stated that he wanted to see the removal of items off-site and underground. Dalton Williams asked if a soils test had been performed on the property. Russ Forrest stated that the possibility of water or soil being contaminated was minimal in light of the type of chemicals used on the property and how they were handled. Planning and Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes October 24, 1994 Jeff Bowen stated that because the site was triangular, he felt that a single family residence would be the most appropriate option for this site. Bob Armour felt that a sub-surface inventory would be a good idea. He did not feel that there was a need for another park on this site. He felt that this site would be a good buffer between the residential area and the park that surrounds it. He agreed with Jeff's comment regarding the future zoning and said that we may want to consider restricting the G FA on the property. Bill Anderson and Greg msden agreed with the other P EC members comments. Greg also said that the surrounding topography creates a natural separation from Ford Hark. Pat auinais stated that they did not want the GRFA on the site restricted in any way because this would directly affect the property's value. He pointed out that they will most likely request Primary/Secondary zoning for the lot, not single family. He stated that it is a perfectly buildable lot and the only restrictions should be as a result of taking the future building through the Design Review Board review. . review of the trash removal plan for a propose coffee shop (restaurant), located in the Covered ridge Building, at 227 ridge Street/Lots C and , and a part of Lot , lock 5-13, Vail Village 1st Filing. Applicant: Fast West Hospitality Planner; Mike ollica It should be noted that Jeff Bowen abstained from this request. Planning and Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes October 249 1994 2 Mike ollica made a brief presentation per the staff memorandum. Julie Iverson, representing Covered Bridge Coffee, stated that they did not envision that there would be excessive trash as a result of the proposed coffee shop. She explained to the PEC what they anticipated the proposed contents would be. Mike Stughton, manager of Russell's Restaurant, asked why the Gorsuch alloy was being proposed, as opposed to behind Pepi's. Mike ollica explained that there was no public right-of-way behind Pepi's building and that the Covered Bridge Building was the only building in the Village without an alleyway. Peter Dann, of East West Partners, explained that there were limited options with regards to the trash removal plan for the Covered Bridge Building. Dalton Williams stated that if he had known a restaurant was going into the Covered Bridge Building, he would have voted against the redevelopment of the Covered ridge Building. He felt that there should be a condition added that would restrict Covered Bridge Coffee to the brewing of coffee only. Julie Iverson explained that since residential space was located two floors above Covered Bridge Coffee that they were not allowed to cook any food and that this restriction was in their lease, 4 request for a final update for the Main Vail Interchange Roundabout Landscaping Proposal.

Planning and Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes October 24, 1994 5 r TO: Planning and Environmental Commission FR : Community Development Department DATE. October 249 1994 SUBJECT: A request fora r es i to discuss a proposed change to the Land Use Plan from Park (P) to Low Density Residential (LDR) for a parcel owned by the Vail Valley Consolidated Water District, located at 967 Vail Valley Drive/Tract C%, Vail Village 7th Filing. Applicant: Vail Valley Consolidated Water District, represented by Pat Daupanais Planner: Jim Curnotte 1. INTRODUCTION Ile BACKGROUND Ili. ANALYSIS ZONING Although the purpose of this worksession is to discuss the issues related to the proposed Land Use Plan change and not necessarily to got involved in a detailed review of a future redevelopment project, staff felt that it might be helpful to include some preliminary information related to the existing zoning on the property, and compare that to the zoning which may ultimately be proposed should the Land Use Plan designation change request be approved. Development Standards Lot Size: Dwelling Units: Allowed Uses: Existing General Use District 0.45 acres or 19,602 sq. ft. Type Ill and Iv EHU's; Number per iot to be determined by PEC. Proposed Primary/Secondary District G R FA: Setbacks: Site Coverage: Building Height: Same Two dwelling units in a Primary/Secondary structure. Examples include: public and private Single Family or Primary/Secondary; schools, public theaters, churches, and Type I EHU. hospitals, public recreation facilities, etc. Lot Area and Site Dimensions: To be determined by PEC. 15,000 sq. ft. of buildable area, 30 feet of minimum frontage, and must be capable of enclosing a square area, 80 feet on each side within its boundaries. I CRITERIA ®_I- EVALUATING THIS PROPOSAL Since this is a worksession to familiarize the P EC with the application and to identify the issues involved, staff will not be addressing the specific criteria for changing the Land Use Plan at this time. However, staff felt that it is important to identify the documents which shall be used to evaluate this proposal at the next PC meeting. A. By the Community Development Department. By the Planning and Environmental Commission or Town Council. C. By the Private Sector. 2 Proposed changes to the Land Use Plan by the private sector require the applicant to clearly demonstrate how conditions have changed since the plan was adopted, how the plan is in error, or how the addition, deletion or change to the Plan is in concert with the Plan in general. The Land Use Plan defines the two land use categories being discussed in this memo as follows: Parrs - Town owned parcels intended for both active recreation activities, such athletic fields, golf courses, and playgrounds, as well areas for various passive recreation activities. The Land Use Plan also points out that the constraint maps adopted by the Town, which indicate geologic hazards, snow avalanche and floolains, should also be utilized in conjunction with the Vail Land Use Plan in the review of any development proposal. This property is not located in any geologically sensitive area.. Ford r Master Plan - The Gerald R. Ford Park was acquired by the Town in 1973 and the master plan for it was approved in 1935. Although Tract shows up on the periphery of all reaps contained in the Ford Park Master Plan, it is not actually included within the boundaries of the park plan itself and no recommendations were made for including Tract C into the development portion of the plan. V. DISCUSSION ISSUES Since this is a worksession, there is no formal staff recommendation at this time. However, the staff has identified the following issues which we would like to discuss further with the PFC and the applicant; Tappropriateness of usirr t property park. Staff has conducted a site visit to Tract C. It weld appear that with the removal of the Water District building, shed and associated mechanical equipment, the property is of a size and shape which would be conducive to its use as a small neighborhood pocket park, The property itself is relatively level, however, it is physically separated from Ford Park by a substantial elevation change located directly to the north of the property. Although it is immediately adjacent to residential development to the east, it does not appear to-be 11 centrally" located within a neighborhood without requiring users to walk some distance along Vail Valley Drive, which is a fairly heavily traveled roadway and does not have a sidewalk adjacent to it. Also, as mentioned above, neither the Ford Park Master Plan nor the recently adopted Comprehensive Open Lands Plan identify this property as being necessary to acquire for an addition to our existing park facilities. The existing Primary/Secondary zoned neighborhood along Vail Valley Drive seems to be adequately served by its close proximity to existing recreational amenities, (i.e. Ford Park, Soccer Field, Golf Course, etc.). 2, The appropriateness of t proposed residential use of t property. -Chlorine: Daily average use of chlorine was approximately 20 pounds per day. The Town/District would normally store four 150 pound gas cylinders on-site. 4 -Alum; Use was approximately 120 pounds per day, The amount of chemical stored on-site were approximately ten 100 pound bags of dry alum. -Polymer; The amount used on-site was approximately 700 milligrams per day. Polymer was shipped in 55 gallon drums. Usually, one drum was stored at the Plant while in use. -Sodium Fluoride: Consumption of fluoride was approximately 5 pounds per day. Fluoride was shipped in cardboard containers, about the size of a 55 gallon drum; the weight of that container was approximately 500 pounds, The applicant has indicated that there are no record of spills or leaks at the Care Creek Water Treatment Plant during its operation. Russell Forrest, the Town of Vail Senior Environmental Policy Planner, has conducts an on- site inspection of the property with the applicants to determine the necessity of requiring an Environmental Assessment, or a Phase I Environmental Audit on the property. Russell has determined that the historic use of the property and the chemicals used in the treatment of drinking water at the site will not necessitate any further environmental review. 0 Removal all abandoned water-related equipment on and off of the property. 4. Possible revisions traffic l on Vail Valley Drive. 5 warrant further investigation. The staff obviously is concerned that the proposed land use change and ultimate rezoning of the property from General Use District to a residential zone district would preclude this property from being considered as a connection paint for the above-referenced connection to the South Frontage Road. At this time, staff has not received comments from, the Town Engineer regarding this issue. .

STAFF RECC ®_ DATION The staff recommendation is for approval of the applicant's trash removal plan for Covered Bridge Coffee. We believe that the applicant's estimates of their quantities of trash are generally accurate and reasonable, and additionally, we feel that the overall trash removal plan is acceptable. The staff would recommend the following three conditions of approval: That no trash container(s) be left unattended at the ore Creek Drive/Gorsuch alley location for any period of time. . That routine inspections will be performed by the Town's Environmental Health Officer to ensure that the trash quantities and proposed disposal methods, as presented in this memorandum, are in compliance. 3. That any spillage of trash during transportation to Gorsuch alley shall be immediately cleaned-up by East West Hospitality. cApec\memos\trash 10. 24 2 MEMORANDUM, T; Planning and Environmental Commission FROM: Community Development Department 11. BACKGROUND 111® STAFF DISCUSSION This project may be the most important physical change the Town will make for a long time to come. Staff recommends that the P EC pay particular attention to the effectiveness of the proposed landscape plan, lighting and signage for the roundabout.
