FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: June 22, 2009
SUBJECT: A request for a final review of a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 12-

SU M MARY
The applicant, Vail Recreation District, is requesting a final review of a conditional use
permit, pursuant to Section 12-9C-3, Conditional Uses, Vail Town Code, to allow for the
construction of a seasonal structure or use to accommodate educational, recreational or
cultural activities (greenhouse) at the Vail Nature Center, located at 841 Vail Valley
Drive/Unplatted, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Sections VII of this memorandum
and the evidence and testimony presented, the Staff recommends approval of this
request subject to the findings noted in Section VIII of this memorandum.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicant is proposing to construct a 250 sq. ft. solar powered geodesic dome
greenhouse at the Vail Nature Center located at 841 Vail Valley Drive. The proposed
greenhouse has an 18 foot diameter and will be 10 feet in height. The proposed
greenhouse will be used for gardening exhibits and numerous educational programs by
the Vail Nature Center. A vicinity map (Attachment A) and the applicant's request
(Attachment B) have been attached for reference.
III. BACKGROUND
In 1973, the Town of Vail acquired the Antholz Ranch for the purpose of open space and
parks. In 1976, this property was rezoned to the Public Use District; and in 1977 the
property was named Gerald R. Ford Park. In 1985, the Town of Vail adopted the Ford
Park and Donovan Park Master Plan. In 1997, the Town of Vail adopted the Ford Park
Management Plan.
The Vail Nature Center is located at Ford Park along Gore Creek adjacent to Vail Valley
Drive. The Vail Nature Center is operated by the Vail Recreation District and provides
numerous educational programs for the public.

CHAPTER 12-16: CONDITIONAL USES PERMITS (in part)
Section 12-16-1: Purpose; Limitations:
In order to provide the flexibility necessary to achieve the objectives of this tit/e, specified
uses are permitted in certain districts subject to the granting of a conditional use permit.
Because of their unusua/ or special characteristics, conditional uses require review so
that they may be /ocated properly with respect to the purposes of this tit/e and with
respect to their effects on surrounding properties. The review process prescribed in this
chapter is intended to assure compatibility and harmonious deve/opment between
conditional uses and surrounding properties in the Town at /arge. Uses listed as
conditional uses in the various districts may be permitted subject to such conditions and
limitations as the Town may prescribe to insure that the /ocation and operation of the
conditional uses will be in accordance with the deve/opment objectives of the Town and
will not be detrimenta/ to other uses or properties. Where conditions cannot be devised,
to achieve these objectives, applications for conditional use permits shall be denied.
A. Factors Enumerated: Before acting on a conditional use permit application, the
planning and environmental commission shall consider the following factors with respect
to the proposed use:
1. Re/ationship and impact of the use on deve/opment objectives of the town.
2. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schoo/s, parks and recreation facilities, and other public
facilities and public facilities needs.
3. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic f/ow and control, access,
maneuverability, and remova/ of snow from the streets and parking areas.
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be
located, including the sca/e and bulk of the proposed use in re/ation to
surrounding uses.
2
5. Such other factors and criteria as the commission deems applicable to the
proposed use.
6. The environmental impact report concerning the proposed use, if an
environmental impact report is required by chapter 12 of this tit/e.

This area of attractive natural landscape is a strong contrast to the more deve/oped
areas of the park. This area is to remain in a natura/ state, and thus, minima/ exterior
improvements are suggested.
V. SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING
Current Land Uses Zoninq
North: Ford Park General Use
South: Ford Park General Use
East: Vail Golf Course Outdoor Recreation
West: Ford Park General Use
VI. ZONING ANALYSIS
Standard Allowed Proposed
Site Coverage per PEC 250 sq. ft. new
VII. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REVIEW CRITERIA
Before acting on a conditional use permit 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 the development objectives of the Town.
Staff believes the proposed greenhouse furthers the purpose of the General Use District
"to ensure that public buildings and grounds and certain quasi-public uses permitted in
the district are appropriately located and designed to meet the needs of residents and
visitors to Vail. "
Staff believes the 10 foot tall and 18 foot diameter scale of this proposed greenhouse will
provide year-round opportunities for the Vail Nature Center to further its mission while
meeting the spirit of the Ford Park Donovan Park Master Development Plan
recommendation that "This area (Vail Nature Centre Area) of attractive natural
landscape is a strong contrast to the more deve/oped areas of the park. This area is to
remain in a natura/ state, and thus, minima/ exterior improvements are suggested. "
2. The effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schools, parks and recreation facilities, and other public
facilities needs.
Staff believes the proposed greenhouse will enhance the park, recreation, and
educational facilities and operations of the Vail Nature Center; and will not negatively
affect light or air, population, transportation, or utilities.
3
3. Effect upon traffic with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, access,
maneuverability, and removal of snow from the street and parking areas.
Staff does not believe the proposed greenhouse will have any effect upon traffic in
comparison to existing conditions.
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be located,
including the scale and bulk of the proposed use in relation to surrounding uses.
The Vail Nature Center is located below Vail Valley Drive along Gore Creek and is not
highly visible from adjacent properties. Staff believes a greenhouse is consistent with the
scale, bulk, and character of the Vail Nature Center and its surroundings.

Growing Dome Geodesic Greenhouse
I. Introduction
This year, the Vail Nature Center celebrates its 35"' year of operation. We wish to mark this historic season with
a project that conveys the Vail Nature Center's continued relevance to environmental education and outdoor
recreation while creating the potential for a wider variety of programming and increased visits.
II.Objective
To install a Growing Dome Greenhouse at the Vail Nature Center. A Growing Dome is a geodesic dome
greenhouse which enables year-round high-altitude gardening without (or with minimal) consumption of fossil
fuels. This greenhouse space would serve as an innovative, hands-on educational space with an interesting
"look" to attrad visitors to the Vail Nature Center.
III. How this project meets VNC goals and mission
■ The current greenhouse is not large enough to use as an exhibit or educational space; a Growing Dome
is large enough for approximately 12 people to walk through with wall and ffoor space for displays and
posters (in addition to garden space).
■ The greenhouse can be used to educate on a large variety of topics including high-altitude gardening,
organic gardening, local food, hydroponics, what plants need, and solar energy. it can be used as a
vehicle to teach about global issues such as carbon footprints, water shortages, and food produdion.
■ The VNC already has an excellent hydroponics unit that needs to be displayed!
■ The innovative design of the greenhouse itself serves an educational purpose; people can iearn about
energy efficiency, solar power, and green construction by learning how the Growing Dome functions.
■ The Growing Dome would be an interactive and hands-on exhibit; something the Vail Nature Center
prides itself in and visitors love. Gardening creates possibilities for children's activities (Camp Eco Fun
especially) and volunteerism.
■ The Growing Dome is unique and interesting-looking, which may make the Vail Nature Center more
appealing from a marketing perspective and attract more visitors who see it from afar. A greenhouse
also offers the appeal of growing gardens that change on a daily and annual basis. It would invite
questions, which would engage visitors more closely with staff who could in turn communicate about
other VNC programs.
■ The current greenhouse is in disrepair and is in a bad location for growing. We would like to fix-up the
existing greenhouse and use it for the less "attractive" gardening stages, i.e. starting seedlings and
mixing fertilizer/compost.
IV. Specifications (size, location, etc)
Growing Domes come in many sizes; we feel we on{y need one iarge enough to serve as an exhibit space. The
desired Growing Dome specifications are:
■ 18 ft. diameter
■ 250 square feet of floor space and 10' tall
■ Location: south side of existing outdoor garden beds in open field. No tree or shrub removal required.
Should not change character of area or diminish any vistas.
� Built to withstand harsh, high-altitude winters, including wind, hail, and snow
■ Photovoltaic (solar) panel which automatically opens window vents at preset temperatures and can be
used to run water pumps for a hydroponics system or cooling fans.
■ Will not require external power source or emit light or create emissions.
■ Does not require a concrete foundation and is designed to be easily disassembled. Sits on a gravel base.
■ Can be installed by 2 people, but is a good "volunteer day" project.
■ No effect on vehicular tra�c, utilities, or other public facilities.

V. Plan of action/Upkeep
■ The Vail Nature Center has staff and volunteers who are willing and able to install the Growing Dome,
and we may be able to arrange for a Growing Spaces staff member to help supervise and help for free.
■ Current VNC staff and volunteers are already maintaining a regular garden and hydroponics garden; they
would continue to maintain the Growing Dome through the fall with the possibility of winter gardening.
■ The Growing Dome is built to handle large loads of snow and therefore would require only minimal
winter maintenance.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: June 22, 2009
SUBJECT: A request for a work session to discuss a conditional use permit, pursuant to
Section 12-9C-3, Conditional Uses, Vail Town Code, to allow for the construction
of public buildings and grounds (fire station), located at 2399 North Frontage
Road West/Parcel A, Resub of Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1, and setting
forth details in regard thereto. (PEC090019)
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Bill Gibson
SU M MARY
The applicant, Town of Vail, is requesting a work session to discuss a conditional use
permit, pursuant to Section 12-9C-3, Conditional Uses, Vail Town Code, to allow for the
construction of public buildings and grounds (fire station), located at 2399 North
Frontage Road/Parcel A, Resub of Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1, and setting forth
details in regard thereto.
The Community Development Department recommends the Planning and Environmental
Commission listens to a presentation by the applicant, provides feedback, and then
tables this item to its August 10, 2009, public hearing for further discussion.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicant, Town of Vail, is proposing to construct a new fire station at 2399 North
Frontage Road West (former Wendy's Restaurant parcel). This property is located
within the General Use (GU) District. Pursuant to Section 12-9C-5, Vail Town Code, the
allowable development standards in the General Use District are established by the
Planning and Environmental Commission during the review of a conditional use permit
application.
The applicant is requesting a work session with the Planning and Environmental
Commission to present, discuss, and receive feedback on the preliminary design
options/scenarios being considered by the West Vail Fire Station Committee. In general,
each scenario involves a building with three fire trucks bays, offices, training and
conference rooms, on-duty staff residence quarters, and fire academy residence
quarters. A vicinity map (Attachment A), preliminary development standards
(Attachment B) and schematic drawings (Attachment C) for the options have been
attached for reference.
III. BACKGROUND
In 2002, the Town of Vail acquired the adjacent Chamonix Parcel in West Vail for the
purpose of constructing a fire station, employee housing, and land banking.
In 2007, the Town of Vail acquired the subject site (former Wendy's Restaurant parcel)
located adjacent to the Chamonix Parcel, based upon a determination that this site was
a more optimal location for a new West Vail fire station than the Chamonix Parcel.
In November of 2008, the Town of Vail rezoned the subject site from Commercial Core 3
District to General Use District through Ordinance No. 26, Series of 2008.
In January of 2009, the Vail Town Council adopted the Chamonix Master Plan. The
master plan established a"preferred option" that recommends a"neighborhood block"
scenario for future employee housing on the Chamonix Parcel and a new fire station on
the subject site.
In January of 2009, the Town of Vail issued a request for proposals (RFP) for the design
of a new fire station on the subject site. The Town has since selected a consulting team
and begun designing the new fire station. The design process includes the involvement
of a West Vail Fire Station Committee composed of the consulting team, members of the
public, and Town Staff.
IV. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Title 12, Zoninq Requlations, Vail Town Code (in part)
ARTICLE 12-9C: GENERAL USE DISTRICT
Section 12-9C-5: Development Standards:
A. Prescribed by P/anning and Environmenta/ Commission: In the General Use District,
deve/opment standards in each of the following categories shall be as prescribed by the
planning and environmental commission:
1. Lot area and site dimensions.
2. Setbacks.
3. Building height.
4. Density control.
5. Site coverage.
6. Landscaping and site deve/opment.
7. Parking and /oading.
B. Reviewed by P/anning and Environmenta/ Commission: Deve/opment standards shall
be proposed by the applicant as a part of a conditional use permit application. Site
specific deve/opment standards shall then be determined by the planning and
environmental commission during the review of the conditional use request in
accordance with the provisions of chapter 16 of this tit/e.
CHAPTER 12-16: CONDITIONAL USES PERMITS (in part)
Section 12-16-1: Purpose; Limitations:
In order to provide the f/exibility necessary to achieve the objectives of this tit/e, specified
uses are permitted in certain districts subject to the granting of a conditional use permit.
Because of their unusua/ or special characteristics, conditional uses require review so
that they may be /ocated properly with respect to the purposes of this tit/e and with
respect to their effects on surrounding properties. The review process prescribed in this
chapter is intended to assure compatibility and harmonious deve/opment between
conditional uses and surrounding properties in the Town at /arge. Uses listed as
2
conditional uses in the various districts may be permitted subject to such conditions and
limitations as the Town may prescribe to insure that the /ocation and operation of the
conditional uses will be in accordance with the deve/opment objectives of the Town and
will not be detrimenta/ to other uses or properties. Where conditions cannot be devised,
to achieve these objectives, applications for conditional use permits shall be denied.
A. Factors Enumerated: Before acting on a conditional use permit application, the
planning and environmental commission shall consider the following factors with respect
to the proposed use:
1. Re/ationship and impact of the use on deve/opment objectives of the town.
2. Effect of the use on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
facilities, utilities, schoo/s, parks and recreation facilities, and other public
facilities and public facilities needs.
3. Effect upon traffic, with particular reference to congestion, automotive and
pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic f/ow and control, access,
maneuverability, and remova/ of snow from the streets and parking areas.
4. Effect upon the character of the area in which the proposed use is to be
located, including the sca/e and bulk of the proposed use in re/ation to
surrounding uses.
5. Such other factors and criteria as the commission deems applicab/e to the
proposed use.
6. The environmental impact report concerning the proposed use, if an
environmental impact report is required by chapter 12 of this tit/e.
Chamonix Master Plan (in aart
Chapter 4, Preferred Option, Section A, Overview
B. Fire Station
The fire station design shown in the Neighborhood B/ock scheme was the consensus
a/ternative of Fire District staff and the Advisory Committee. The building foundation
itself provided retention of the steep s/opes to the north of the site, and thereby offered
the most cost effective site design.
V. DISCUSSION ITEMS
• What are the most appropriate development standards for the new fire station?
As noted above, development standards within the General Use District are not
prescribed by the Town's Zoning Regulations; but instead are established by the
Planning and Environmental Commission. The Commission shall establish the following
standards for the proposed fire station:
1. Lot area and site dimensions.
2. Setbacks.
3. Building height.
4. Density control.
5. Site coverage.
6. Landscaping and site development.
7. Parking and loading.
3
The applicant requests the Commission provide preliminary direction concerning what
development standards are most appropriate for a new fire station on the subject
development site. The applicant also request that the Commission provide feedback
about which development plan option(s) best achieve these development standards.
The adjacent zone districts include Heavy Service (gas station site), Housing District
(Chamonix site), and Two-Family Primary/Secondary District (adjacent residences). The
following is a summary of the development standards allowed in those districts:
Heavy Service Housing Primary/Secondary
Setbacks (min) 20 ft. 20 ft. or per 20 ft. front
PEC 15 ft. sides & rear
Building Height (max) 38 ft. sloped per PEC 33 ft. sloped
35 ft. flat 30 ft. flat
Site Coverage (max) 75% of lot 55% of lot or 20% of lot
per PEC
Landscaping (min) 10% of lot 30% of lot or 60% of lot
per PEC
How do the proposed development plan options affect the character of the
surrounding neighborhood?
In reviewing a conditional use permit, the Planning and Environmental must evaluate the
effect of the use upon the character of the surrounding area, including the scale and bulk
of any proposed buildings. The Commission must also consider the impacts of a
conditional use such as light, noise, traffic, etc. on the surrounding area. In terms of
traffic, it is anticipated there will be 3 to 4 emergency trips per day, 30 to 35 non-
emergency trips per day (staff), and an additional 20 trips per day for
community/meeting/training room usage. The applicant requests the Commission
provides preliminary feedback concerning the compatibility of the fire station design
options with the character of the neighborhood.
VI. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department requests the Planning and Environmental
Commission asks questions about the proposed fire station and provides the applicant
with initial feedback or direction.
The Community Development Department recommends the Planning and Environmental
Commission tables this item to its August 10, 2009, public hearing for further discussion.
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose table this request, Staff
recommends the Commission pass the following motion:
"The P/anning and Environmenta/ Commission tables the request for a final
review of a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 12-9C-3, Conditional
Uses, Vail Town Code, to allow for the construction of public buildings and
grounds (fire station), located at 2399 North Frontage Road/Parce/ A, Resub of
Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1, and setting forth details in regard thereto. "

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: June 22, 2009
SUBJECT: A request for a work session to discuss prescribed regulations amendments,
pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to Title 12, Zoning
Regulations, Vail Town Code, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(PEC090017)
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Rachel Friede
SU M MARY
The applicant, the Town of Vail, is requesting a work session to discuss prescribed
regulations amendments, pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code, to
Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code, to allow for housekeeping, clarification
and policy shifts within the Town of Vail, and setting forth details in regard thereto.
The purpose of this work session is to gain feedback from the Planning and
Environmental Commission on a number of policy issues related to the zone district
chapters within Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code.
Because this is a work session, no formal action is required at this time. Staff requests
that the Commissioners listen to the presentation, ask any pertinent questions, and
provide feedback on the policy questions outlined in this memorandum.
II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
As a part of the 2009 Code Revision Project, Staff is working on revising Title 12, Zoning
Regulations. The goals of the 2009 Code Revision Project are as follows, in no order of
priority:
1. Integrate green standards and guidelines.
2. Streamline the process and procedures for deve/opment review.
3. Ensure consistency among regulations and planning documents.
4. Increase efficiencies and cost savings in the deve/opment review process.
5. Eliminate outdated, ineffective and unnecessary provisions within the
deve/opment tit/es.
6. Reaffirm existing policies and adopt new policies to clarify direction.
7. Maintain current with industry practices and standards.
8. Ensure support from the community through public process
The following are policy questions that Staff is requesting feedback on from the
Commission:
CAN BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES BE COMBINED INTO ONE
LAND USE?
One of the purposes of separating business from professional offices as land uses is to
have increased regulations for real estate offices within commercial areas. However,
this is not the case, as most districts allow both types of offices. The exception is that
business offices (which allow real estate offices) are a conditional use in Heavy Service
(HS) and Residential Cluster (RC) Districts. However, there are restrictions to business
offices in the RC District, as listed below. Temporary Business offices, not including real
estate offices, are permitted on the first floor in Lionshead Mixed Use 1(LMU-1) in order
to accommodate businesses that lost office space during redevelopment, and this land
use is the basis for allowing Vail Resorts offices in the Treetops building. In the Ski
Base Recreation (SBR) District, there is a conflict that has the same type of office use as
a permitted and conditional use.
Because the intensity of use for office is generally the same, Staff recommends that
offices be combined as one use, allowing all types of offices to exist in the zone districts
that already allow different types of offices. Offices listed as conditional uses require a
conditional use permit and will remain limited through the use specific criteria. This will
keep the same intent of each district's restrictions, but will reduce confusion and provide
consistency among land uses. Staff also recommends that all districts that allow offices
also allow studios, rather than only as permitted on all levels in Commercial Core 3
(CC3), and on the lower level and 2nd floor and above in Commercial Core 1(CC1),
Commercial Core 2(CC2), Commercial Service Center (CSC), Arterial Business District
(ABD), Lionshead Mixed Use 1(LMU-1) and Lionshead Mixed Use 2(LMU-2) Districts.
The use specific criteria could still exist in certain zone districts to keep the current
restrictions in place. Staff also recommends that temporary business offices remain.
The definitions for business, professional and temporary business offices are as follows
from Chapter 12-2-2, Definitions of Words:
OFF/CE, BUS/NESS: An office for the conduct of general business and service
activities, such as offices of rea/ estate or insurance agents, brokers, secretaria/ or
stenographic services, or offices for general business activities and transactions,
where storage, sa/e, or display of inerchandise on the premises occupies /ess than
ten percent (10%) of the f/oor area.
OFF/CE, PROFESS/ONAL: An office for the practice of a profession, such as offices
of physicians, dentists, lawyers, architects, engineers, musicians, teachers,
accountants, and others who through training are qualified to perform services of a
professional nature, where storage, sa/e, or display of inerchandise on the premises
occupies /ess than ten percent (10%) of the f/oor area.
OFF/CE, TEMPORARY BUS/NESS: An office for the conduct of general business
and service activities and transactions for a limited time period to accommodate the
temporary displacement of an existing business office within the town of Vail due to
redeve/opment construction activities.
2
STUD/O: A building or portion of a building used as a place of work by an artist,
photographer, or an artisan in the fie/d of light handicrafts, provided that no use shall
be permitted or no process or equipment employed which is objectionable or
injurious to persons or property in the vicinity by reason of odor, fumes, dust, smoke,
cinders, dirt, refuse or wastes, noise, vibration, illumination, g/are, unsightliness, or
hazard of fire or explosion.
The following is a list of zone districts containing offices as land uses:
Business offices are a conditional use in the HS District with no use specific criteria
and a conditional use in the RC District, with use specific criteria below.
Professional and Business Offices are both conditional uses in the H and PA Districts.
Use specific criteria for the Housing District are below.
Professional offices, business offices and studios are permitted on all levels in CC3,
and on the lower level and second floor and above in CC1, CC2, CSC ABD, LMU-1,
LMU-2 Districts.
Temporary business offices are a conditional use on the first floor in the LMU-1
District, with use specific criteria below.
Summer seasonal recreational, cultural and educational programs and offices are
a permitted use in SBR District, but summer seasonal community offices and
programs is listed as a conditional use in the same district.
Public uses, private office and commercial uses that are transportation, tourist or
town related and that are accessory to a parking structure are conditional uses in
the P District and Offices, accessory to a parking structure are conditional in GU
District.

g. Homeowners' association or property owner approva/ shall be required of all
conditional use permit applications for a professiona/ office or a business office
within the housing (H) district pursuant to subsection 12-11-4B 1 d of this code.
2. SHOULD FUNICULARS BE REGULATED BY DESIGN STANDARDS INSTEAD
OF THROUGH A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT?
"Funiculars and other similar conveyances" are a conditional use in all residential
zone districts. There are three funiculars within the Town, all built prior to the change
of funiculars from accessory use to conditional use. In order to meet the goal of
streamlining the development review process and reduce staff time, Staff
recommends that funiculars be considered a residential accessory use, with new
design guidelines that will provide the same restrictions as the conditional use
permit. This will reduce the amount of process an applicant would have to navigate,
and would solidify design requirements for this use. Review would then shift from
the Planning and Environmental Commission to the Design Review Board, who
would determine if significant site constraints exist on site.
The use specific criteria for funiculars, found in Section 12-16-7, Use Specific Criteria
and Standards, are as follows:
a. Funiculars and other similar conveyances shall only be allowed when designed
for the purpose of providing access to a residentia/ dwelling, as determined by
the planning and environmental commission.
b. Funiculars and other similar conveyances shall only be allowed when significant
site constraints prevent conventional means of vehicular access to the residential
dwelling, as determined by the planning and environmental commission.
"Significant site constraints" shall be defined as natura/ features such as mature
trees, natura/ drainages, stream courses, and other natural water features, rock
outcroppings, wet/ands, excessive s/opes, other natura/ features, and existing
structures that may create practica/ difficulties in the site planning and
deve/opment of the /ot.
c. Funiculars and other similar conveyances shall only be allowed when designed to
be compatible with both the site upon which they are /ocated and the residential
dwelling to which they provide access, as determined by the planning and
environmental commission.
d. Funiculars and other similar conveyances shall only be allowed when designed to
be appropriately screened from view, as determined by the planning and
environmental commission.
3. SHOULD THE REGULATION OF HEIGHT BE AMENDED IN RESIDENTIAL
DISTRICTS?
In most zone districts, height requirements are different for sloping roofs and flat or
mansard roofs. Sloping roofs are allowed increased height (typically three feet
more) to provide room for the gabled portion of the roof. However, applicants argue
that all roofs have slopes, even those considered flat roofs. Staff believes there is a
need to improve the definitions of flat and sloping roofs, as well as the definition of
height. Parapet walls also need to be defined and a determination on how to
calculate parapet walls into maximum heights should be made. Staff also believes
there should be provisions to allow additional height for super insulated roofing,
which is a green building measure.
While sloping roofs are not defined, flat and mansard roofs are defined as follows:
ROOF, FLAT: A roof that is not pitched and the surface of which is generally
paralle/ to the ground.
ROOF, MANSARD: A roof with two (2) s/opes on each of four (4) sides, the /ower
steeper than the upper.
Height, and associated terminology for grade is as follows:
GRADE, F/N/SHED: The finished grade shall be the grade proposed upon
completion of a project.
GRADE, INTERPOLATED: The reestablished topographic conditions of a
deve/opment site expressed in two foot (2) contour interva/s and determined by
connecting surveyed spot e/evations /ocated at ten foot (10) interva/s around the
perimeter of a property boundary and used in the determination of maximum
allowab/e building height.
HE/GHT: The distance measured vertically from any point on a proposed or
existing roof or eaves to the existing or finished grade (whichever is more
restrictive) located directly be/ow said point of the roof or eaves. Within any
building footprint, height shall be measured vertically from any point on a
proposed or existing roof to the existing grade directly be/ow said point on a
proposed or existing roof.
4. SHOULD DOG KENNELS BE ELIMINATED AS A LAND USE IN RESIDENTIAL
DISTRICTS?
Dog kennels are listed as a conditional use in the Single Family Residential (SFR),
Two-Family Residential (R), Residential Cluster (RC), Low Density Multiple Family
(LDMF), Medium Density Multiple Family (MDMF), High Density Multiple Family
(HDMF), Commercial Core 1(CC1), Commercial Core 3(CC3), Commercial Service
Center (CSC), and Heavy Service (HS) Districts. There is no definition for dog
kennels within Title 12. However, dog kennels are a separate use from the
residential accessory uses such as dog runs or dog houses. Staff believes that this
use is not appropriate anywhere, except for potentially in the HS District because of
its major impacts regarding noise, smell and visual aesthetics.
5. SHOULD BAKERIES BE REGULATED DIFFERENTLY FROM EATING AND
DRINKING ESTABLISHMENTS?
Bakeries have two general categories, including those that sell items on site and
those that only produce goods for wholesale. Bakeries that sell items on site are
similar to eating and drinking establishments. Wholesale bakeries have a more
industrial use, with impacts coming from the use of delivery trucks. Staff
6
recommends that bakeries with on site retail be combined with eating and drinking
establishments, as the impacts are very similar. This means the only place that
allows wholesale bakeries is in the CC1 District. Allowing this type of use within a
pedestrian commercial core seems out of line with the impacts caused by the use.
Impacts of wholesale bakeries include smell, early hours for delivery and noise. Staff
requests that the PEC provide input on how to regulate wholesale bakeries.
Bakeries and Confectionaries are defined as follows:
BAKER/ES AND CONFECT/ONER/ES: Commercial retail or who/esa/e
properties whose main products are baked goods and desserts, either produced
on the premises or off site.
Bakeries and confectioneries are a permitted Use in CC1 and are a conditional
use in ABD District.
Bakeries and delicatessens with food service, restricted to preparation of
products specifically for sale on the premises, are permitted in CC1, CC3, CSC
and SBR2.
Bakeries and delicatessens with food service are a permitted Use in the CSC
District.
Use specific criteria for bakeries as a conditional use only apply to the ABD District
and are as follows:
1. Bakeries and confectioneries: The use shall be restricted to preparation of
products specifically for sa/e on the premises.
6. SHOULD THE TWO-FAMILY PRIMARY/SECONDARY DISTRICT BE
ELIMINATED AND ALL PROPERTIES REZONED TO TWO-FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT?
The only difference between the Two-Family Primary/Secondary (PS) District and
the Two-Family Residential (R) District is that in the PS District, there is a distinction
between the two units with the secondary unit not allowed to exceed 40% of the
allowable GRFA. Originally, the PS District was established to allow for a small (less
than 1200 sq ft) caretaker unit to be attached to a single family dwelling. The change
to allow the secondary unit to have up to 40% of allowable GRFA in most cases
caused the two units to become separately owned units, neither of which is typically
for a caretaker. In some cases, party wall agreements and other covenants restrict
GRFA for the secondary unit. Covenants would still apply if properties rezoned to
the R District, while those without covenants would be allowed to split GRFA as they
wish. In many cases, there is no mention of which unit is the secondary unit, and
Staff relies on the owners to decide which unit has GRFA restrictions. There is also
concern that allowing equal GRFA for both sides of the duplex will result in mirror
image duplexes, which is prohibited by the design guidelines. However, the design
guidelines will be improved to ensure that both sides of the duplex are designed to
be compatible, but not identical.
The benefits of rezoning all PS properties to R District are that GRFA will be equally
distributed between homeowners, thus reducing the amount of conflict and animosity
between neighbors. Staff will no longer have to regulate which unit is primary and
which is secondary. This will also save Staff time, allowing owners to decide how
GRFA is distributed within the structure. The rezoning will also eliminate a zone
district, which will help streamline Title 12.
The cons to rezoning are that duplexes without party wall agreements specifying
primary and secondary units will revert to an unregulated split of GRFA, which may
reduce allowable GRFA for the primary units. However, many properties detail
GRFA division within the party wall agreement. This will also be resolved because
joint property owner approval is required, thus providing a mechanism for owners to
privately resolve GRFA division.
III. BACKGROUND
On January 6, 2009, Staff held a work session with the Vail Town Council to introduce
the 2009 Code Revision Project. Council members provided comment on the project,
including highlighting a need to achieve high green building standards, and to avoid
having lengthy policy discussions about topics such as Gross Residential Floor Area
(GRFA). On January 22, 2009, the Vail Town Council instructed Staff to begin a code
analysis and gain feedback from the PEC and other committees in order to proceed with
the 2009 Code Revision Project.
IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Because this is a work session, no formal action is required at this time. Staff requests
that the Commissioners listen to the presentation, ask any pertinent questions, and
provide feedback on the policy questions found in this memo. Staff also requests that
this item be tabled to the July 13, 2009 PEC meeting.

Pay As You Throw (PAYT)Waste/Recycling Program Presentation - 60 minutes Kristen Bertuglia
Lisa Skumatz of Skumatz Economic Research Associates (SERA), Inc. gave a presentation
regarding the pros and cons of a PAYT program and how other communities have implemented
programs. Kristen Bertuglia, TOV Environmental Sustainability Coordinator, gave a presentation
specifically on the challenges facing the Town of Vail to implement a PAYT program. Juri Freeman
of SERA gave a presentation going into greater detail.
The Commissioners asked several questions to gain clarity on the program and the potential
impacts within the Town of Vail.
Commissioner Viele identified that he had a concern with the PAYT program appearing like an
attempt to legislate behavior.
Commissioner Paladino believes that there is a penalty with this type of program for families that are
already struggling as there are many items associated with children which are not recyclable.
Commissioner Pierce stated that there are several elements which need to be fixed prior to the
implementation of a PAYT program. Social conscious will cause people to recycle if it is made to be
simple.
Several Commissioners felt the program was complicated and needed to be simplified. Further they
felt it was necessary to focus on multi-family and commercial developments (ie. Hotels) as they
generate a significant amount of the trash in Town.
Commissioner Kurz pointed out the occupancy of his multi-family development (three full-time units)
and the fact that a project like the Marriott produces more trash in a day that his entire complex does
in a year. He concluded by stating that the Town should target the large trash generators first.
Matt Donovan, representing Vail Honey Wagon, spoke to the goal of the Town regarding waste
reduction and if that was truly achievable. Believes recycling is much more prevalent in the Town
than reported in the presentation. His customers recycle 300 to 400 cubic yards a week. Believes
PAYT is premature at this point.
The Commissioners stated that they support the concept of recycling to the greatest degree
possible; however, they believe there are some inequities in the PAYT program as well. Believe that
the bigger projects should be targeted first.
Page 1
Commissioner Kjesbo clarified that the numbers show 40% of single family and duplex are recycling;
however, going after these uses is a drop in the bucket.
Kristen Bertuglia, stated that in the trash survey they found 85% of the trash cans contained multiple
recyclable items.
Lisa Skumatz stated that an ordinance including commercial and residential projects at the same
time may be the best way to address all concerns.
Commissioner Viele clarified that he supports mandated recycling, but not the mandate of the
economics of the cost for each bag.
