MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: January 24, 2011
SUBJECT: A request for the review of a final plat, pursuant to Chapter 13 -12, Exemption
Plat Review Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the re- subdivision of Lots 3
and 5, Block D, Vail Ridge, located at 2610 and 2688 Arosa Drive, and setting
details in regards thereto. (PEC110001)
Applicant: Arosa Partners & Bob Armour, represented by KH Webb Architects
Planner: Bill Gibson
SUMMARY
The applicants, Arosa Partners & Bob Armour, represented by KH Webb Architects, are
requesting the review of a final plat to allow for the re- subdivision of their properties, Lot
3 and Lot 5 respectively.
Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Sections VII of this memorandum
and the evidence and testimony presented, the Staff recommends the Planning and
Environmental Commission approves, with a condition, this request subject to the
findings noted in Section VIII of this memorandum.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicants, Arosa Partners & Bob Armour, represented by KH Webb Architects, are
requesting the review of a final plat to modify the property boundary between Lots 3 and
5, Block D, Vail Ridge. This proposed final plat transfers 246 sq.ft. of property from Lot 5
to Lot 3. The proposed Lot 3 will increase to more than 14,000 sq.ft. of lot area, thus
increasing the allowable density on this site from one dwelling unit to two dwelling units.
A vicinity map (Attachment A), the proposed final plat (Attachment B), and the
applicant's request (Attachment C) have been attached for review.
III. BACKGROUND
The subject properties were originally platted through the Vail Ridge Subdivision in 1965
under Eagle County jurisdiction. Lot 3 was configured with 13,772 sq.ft. of lot area and
Lot 5 was configured with 22,536 sq.ft. of lot area.
These properties were annexed into the Town of Vail in 1986. The Town of Vail zoned
both properties Two - Family Primary /Secondary District. Since Lot 3 is less than 15,000
sq.ft. in size as required by the Two - Family Primary /Secondary District, this property is
legally non - conforming in regard to lot area. Currently one single - family residence exists
on Lot 3 and a two - family residence exists on Lot 5.
In 2000, the Town of Vail adopted Ordinance No. 6 to amend the density standards in
the Two - Family and Two- Family Primary /Secondary Districts. The minimum lot size
standard in these districts was 15,000 sq.ft. of buildable area. The allowable density in
theses districts was also based upon a minimum lot area of 15,000 sq.ft. Properties
meeting the 15,000 sq.ft. minimum lot area standards were allowed a density of two
dwelling units, but lots smaller than 15,000 sq.ft. were allowed a density of only one
dwelling unit.
Ordinance No. 6, Series of 2000, did not amend the 15,000 sq.ft. minimum lot size
standard in the Two - Family or Two - Family Primary /Secondary Districts. However,
Ordinance No. 6 lowered the minimum lot area for a density of two dwelling units from
15,000 sq.ft. to 14,000 sq.ft. in these districts. The stated purpose of this amendment
was a follows:
"The PEC and staff believe that by lowering the minimum lot size, even by 1, 000
sq. ft., may encourage redevelopment of homes and the creation of Type II EHUs.
The majority of lots of less than 15,000 sq. ft. are located in East and West Vail.
These lots were annexed to the Town of Vail and applied zoning that did not
reflect the plats that were recorded by Eagle County. "
IV. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code (in part)
ARTICLE 12 -6D: TWO- FAMILY PRIMARY /SECONDARY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT

VII. REVIEW CRITERIA
Before acting on a final plat application, the Planning and Environmental Commission
shall consider the following factors with respect to the proposed use:
1. The extent to which the proposed subdivision is consistent with all 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 subject properties are designated as Low Density Residential by the Vail Land Use
Plan. The Vail Land Use Plan identifies single - family and two - family dwelling units as
the appropriate density for properties in the Low Density Residential category.
0
Both subject properties are located within the Two - Family Primary /Secondary District.
Pursuant to this zoning designation either a single - family or two - family residence may be
constructed on Lot 5. Since Lot 3 is currently less than 14,000 sq.ft. in lot area, only a
single - family residence may be constructed on this site. A two - family residence is
currently not allowed to be constructed on Lot 3 due to its legally non - conforming lot
area.
The proposed final plat will transfer 246 sq.ft. of lot area from Lot 5 to Lot 3. If the
Planning and Environmental Commission chooses to approve this proposed final plat,
Lot 3 will be configured with 14,018 sq.ft. of lot area. This increase in lot area will make
Lot 3 more conforming in regard to the standards of the Two - Family Primary /Secondary
District and will allow a two - family residence to be constructed on this site. This increase
in allowed density on Lot 3 is consistent with the Low Density Residential designation of
the Vail Land Use Plan.
Staff believes the proposed final plat is consistent with the Vail Land Use Plan's goals:
1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (infill areas).
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in existing,
platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high hazards do not exist.
Staff also believes the proposed final plat is consistent with the purpose of the Town's
Subdivision Regulations and purpose of the Two - Family Primary /Secondary Zone
District as outlined in Section IV of this memorandum. Staff believes the proposed final
plat is consistent with 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. Staff believes the proposed final plat is therefore consistent with
this criterion.
2. The extent to which the proposed subdivision complies with all of the standards
of Title 13, Subdivision Regulations, Vail Town Code, as well as, but not limited to,
Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code, and other pertinent regulations that
the planning and environmental commission deems applicable; and
The proposed final plat establishes a property boundary between Lots 3 and 5 that
complies with the minimum street frontage (30 ft.) and minimum size and shape
dimensions (80 ft. by 80 ft. square) standards prescribed by the Two - Family
Primary /Secondary District.
Lot 3 is currently legally non - conforming in regard to the minimum lot area standards
(15,000 sq.ft.) of the Two - Family Primary /Secondary District. The proposed final plat will
bring Lot 3 more into conformance with these lot area standards. Both the existing and
proposed Lot 5 configurations comply with these minimum lot area standards.
The applicant has configured the proposed property boundary between Lots 3 and 5 to
ensure the existing residential structures comply with all requirements of the Two - Family
Primary /Secondary District including setbacks, site coverage, landscape area, etc.
5
Staff believes the proposed final plat complies with the applicable requirements of the
Town's Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Regulations, and is therefore consistent
with this criterion.
3. The extent to which the proposed subdivision presents a harmonious,
convenient, workable relationship among land uses consistent with municipal
development objectives; and
This proposed final plat does not expand the developable area of the subject properties
beyond their existing collective boundaries. The proposed final plat is consistent with
the Vail Land Use Plan's Low Density Residential designation. The proposed final plat
will accommodate additional community growth in an existing developed areas (infill
areas) as recommended by the Vail Land Use Plan. The proposed final plat was
designed such that the existing residential structures comply with the requirements of
the Two - Family Primary /Secondary District.
The proposed final plat realigns the property boundary between the subject sites to be
parallel with the existing residential structure on Lot 5. Staff believes this realignment
creates a more harmonious and workable relationship between this existing structure
and the property boundaries.
Staff believes the proposed final plat creates lot shapes and sizes that are consistent
with the general character of the existing neighborhood. Therefore, Staff does not
believe the proposed final plat will have significant negative affects on the future
development of the surrounding area in comparison to existing conditions.
4. The extent of the effects on the future development of the surrounding area;
and
This proposed final plat does not expand the developable area of the subject properties
beyond their existing boundaries. The proposed final plat is consistent with the Vail
Land Use Plan's Low Density Residential designation. The proposed final plat will
accommodate additional community growth in an existing developed areas (infill areas)
as recommended by the Vail Land Use Plan. The proposed final plat was designed
such that the existing residential structures comply with the requirements of the Two -
Family Primary /Secondary District. Therefore, Staff does not believe the proposed final
plat will have significant negative affects on the future development of the surrounding
area in comparison to existing conditions.
5. The extent to which the proposed subdivision is located and designed to avoid
creating spatial patterns that cause inefficiencies in the delivery of public
services, or require duplication or premature extension of public facilities, or
result in a "leapfrog" pattern of development; and
This proposed final plat does not expand the developable area of these properties
beyond their existing collective boundaries. Staff does not believe the proposed final
plat will have significant negative affects on the community's special patterns in
comparison to existing conditions.
6. The extent to which the utility lines are sized to serve the planned ultimate
population of the service area to avoid future land disruption to upgrade
undersized lines; and
A
Utility services exist for the subject property. The applicant is coordinating with Holy
Cross Energy to establish a new utility easement on Lot 3. This new easement will
connect the dead -end easement on Lot 5 to the Arosa Drive street right -of -way. Staff
believes the proposed final plat will have a positive affect on utilities in comparison to
existing conditions.
VIII
7. The extent to which the proposed subdivision provides for the growth of an
orderly viable community and serves the best interests of the community as a
whole; and
This proposed final plat does not expand the developable area of the subject properties
beyond their existing collective boundaries. The proposed final plat is consistent with
the Vail Land Use Plan's Medium Density Residential designation. The proposed final
plat will accommodate additional community growth in an existing developed areas (infill
areas) as recommended by the Vail Land Use Plan. Therefore, Staff believes the
proposed final plat provides for growth in an orderly manner.
8. The extent to which the proposed subdivision results in adverse or beneficial
impacts on the natural environment, including, but not limited to, water quality, air
quality, noise, vegetation, riparian corridors, hillsides and other desirable natural
features; and
This proposed final plat does not expand the developable area of the subject properties
beyond their existing collective boundaries. Staff does not believe the proposed final
plat will have significant negative affects on the natural environment in comparison to
existing conditions.
9. Such other factors and criteria as the commission and /or council deem
applicable to the proposed subdivision.

Arosa Partners /Armour Exemption Plat Review Request
2610/2668 Arosa Drive
Vail, Colorado
DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST:
A minor resubdirision of two lots and associated property corners to correct minor encroachments,
adjacency issuer and non - conformities among lot sizes. The corrections are required due to an improper
layout and location of Arosa Drive in its original Subdivision Plat and the actual road location not being
placed properly within the Right of Way.
Due to tha improper road location condition, a property corner for lot 3 ii currently within IS' of the
non - conforming residence on lot S in the front setback. Also, the parking area for lot S is substantially
located in the Right of Way between lot 3 and Arosa Drive, this correction would place lot S r parking
in the Right of Way between lot S and Arosa Drive and correct the property rights of Lot 3 and
re %rate a property corner so lot Si side /front setback is lessened as a non - conformity.
In addition, within this minor subdivision, allocations of lot areas would be adjusted between the two
lots to bring lot 3's area above 14000 sq. ft. and the threshold for a conforming duplex to be allowed
on lot 3 due to a shift of +1- -146 sq. ft. of property area. In addition, according to the surveyor,
that after verification of the 1 -70 Right of Way, lot S it 812 sq. It. smaller than the original Subdivision
Plat indicates and this correction will be noted in the re- subdivision process.

TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: January 24, 2011
SUBJECT: A request for a recommendation to the Vail Town Council for a major amendment to
Special Development District No. 4, Cascade Village, pursuant to Section 12- 9A -10,
Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the removal of Development
Area D (Glen Lyon Office Building) from Special Development District No. 4,
Cascade Village, located at 1000 S. Frontage Road West/Lot 54, Glen Lyon
Subdivision, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC090036)
Applicant: Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group, LLC
Planner: Warren Campbell
I. SUMMARY
The applicant, Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group, LLC, is
requesting a recommendation to the Vail Town Council on a proposed major amendment to
Special Development District (SDD) No. 4, Cascade Village, pursuant to Section 12- 9A -10,
Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the removal of Development Area D
(Glen Lyon Office Building) from Special Development District No. 4, Cascade Village.
The request to remove Development Area D (Glen Lyon Office Building) from SDD No. 4 is
necessary to allow the lot to be combined with the former Amoco /BP gas station site,
Cascade Crossing, the Vail Professional Building, the Holy Cross Lot, the Vail Resorts
Maintenance Yard, and portions of South Frontage Road West right -of -way which is to be
abandoned. The assemblage of these sites listed above will permit the applicant to
establish two new parcels within a new subdivision, thus creating the Ever Vail development
site.
Upon review of the applicable elements of the Town's planning documents and adopted
criteria for review, the Community Development Department recommends the Planning and
Environmental Commission forwards a recommendation of approval, with conditions, of
the request for a major amendment to Special Development District (SDD) No. 4, Cascade
Village. Staff's recommendations are based upon review of the established criteria provided
in Sections VIII of this memorandum and the evidence and testimony which was received.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
Special Development District Amendment
The applicant is requesting a recommendation to the Vail Town Council on a proposed
major amendment to SDD No. 4, Cascade Village, pursuant to Section 12- 9A -10,
Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to remove Development Area D, Glen Lyon
Office Building (GLOB) from the SDD. The removal of the GLOB property from SDD No. 4
facilitates its incorporation into the proposed Ever Vail development site.
A vicinity map (Attachment A) and a draft amending ordinance are attached for reference
(Attachment B).
III. BACKGROUND
The Vail Resorts Maintenance Shop was annexed into the Town of Vail by Ordinance No. 8,
Series of 1969, which became effective on August 23, 1969.
The Holy Cross Lot, Vail Professional Building, Cascade Crossing, and former gas station
sites were annexed into the Town of Vail by Ordinance No. 26, Series of 1975, which
became effective on December 16, 1975.
On December 11, 2006, the Planning and Environmental Commission forwarded a
recommendation of approval for amendments to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan
to include the Vail Professional Building and Cascade Crossing parcels within the Master
Plan boundaries and to amend the recommendations for the area known as "West
Lionshead ".
On February 6, 2007, the Vail Town Council adopted Resolution No. 4, Series of 2007,
which implemented the changes to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan regarding
West Lionshead and the area known as Ever Vail.
On September 24, 2007, the Planning and Environmental Commission forwarded a
recommended approval of the preliminary plat by a vote of 6 -0 -0. This application was
subsequently withdrawn by the applicant while it was in the Town Council review process.
On October 22, 2007, the Planning and Environmental Commission forwarded a
recommendation of approval on the proposed rezoning of the two new parcels proposed to
be established in the Ever Vail Subdivision by a vote of 5 -1 -0 (Cleveland opposed). This
application was subsequently withdrawn by the applicant while it was in the Town Council
review process.
On August 11, 2008, the Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission voted 4 -0 -1
(Viele recused) to forward a recommendation of approval of Resolution No. 19, Series of
2008, for the Vail Land Use Plan map amendment to allow for a change in the land use
designation from Community Office to Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan for the Glen
Lyon Office Building site. On September 2, 2008 the Vail Town Council approved
Resolution No. 19, Series of 2008, described above. The motion passed 4 -3 -0, with Foley,
Hitt and Rogers dissenting.
On December 8, 2008 the Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission voted 5 -0-
1 (Viele recused) to forward a recommendation of approval to the Vail Town Council for
Resolution 26, Series of 2008, which included amendments to the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan to incorporate the GLOB within the document. On February 3,
2009 the Vail Town Council adopted Resolution No. 26, Series of 2008, by a vote of 5 -1 -0
(Foley opposed).
On March 22, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved a partial
preliminary plan which established the 1 -70 right -of -way. This partial preliminary plan was
endorsed by the Town Council on April 21, 2009, for submittal to CDOT for review.
On January 10, 2011, the Planning and Environmental Commission unanimously forwarded
recommendations of approval to the Vail Town Council for the adoption of the Ever Vail
preliminary plan and the zoning of Parcels 1 and 2 of the Ever Vail Subdivision to Lionshead
Mixed use 2 District. These recommendations of approval were conditioned upon the
recording of the Ever Vail final plat.

V. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan (in part)
Chapter 2 — Introduction (in part)
2.3 Policy Objectives
The Town Council adopted six policy objectives on November 4, 1996 to outline the
important issues to be addressed in the master plan and to provide a policy
framework for the master planning process.
2.3.1 Renewal and Redevelopment
Lionshead can and should be renewed and redeveloped to become a
warmer, more vibrant environment for guests and residents. Lionshead
needs an appealing and coherent identity, a sense of place, a personality, a
purpose, and an improved aesthetic character.
2.3.2 Vitality and Amenities
We must seize the opportunity to enhance guest experience and community
interaction through expanded and additional activities and amenities such as
performing arts venues, conference facilities, ice rinks, streetscape, parks
and other recreational improvements.
2.3.3 Stronger Economic Base Through Increased Live Beds
In order to enhance the vitality and viability of Vail, renewal and
redevelopment in Lionshead must promote improved occupancy rates and
the creation of additional bed base ( "live beds" or "warm beds') through new
lodging products. Live beds and warm beds are best described as
residential or lodging rooms or units that are designed for occupancy by
visitors, guests, individuals, or families on a short term rental basis. In order
to improve occupancy rates and create additional bed base in Lionshead,
applications for new development and redevelopment projects which include
a residential component shall provide live beds in the form of
accommodation units, fractional fee club units, lodge dwelling units,
timeshare units, attached accommodation units (i.e, lock -off units), or
dwelling units which are included in a voluntary rental management program
and available for short term rental. Further, it is the expressed goal of this
Plan that in addition to creating additional bed base through new lodging
products, there shall be no net loss of existing live beds within the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan study area.
2.3.4 Improved Access and Circulation
The flow of pedestrian, vehicular, bicycle and mass transit traffic must be
improved within and through Lionshead.
2.3.5 Improved Infrastructure
The infrastructure of Lionshead (streets, walkways, transportation systems,
parking, utilities, loading and delivery systems, snow removal and storage
capacity) and its public and private services must be upgraded to support
redevelopment and revitalization efforts and to meet the service expectations
of our guests and residents.
2.3.6 Creative Financing for Enhanced Private Profits and Public Revenues
Financially creative and fiscally realistic strategies must be identified so that
adequate capital may be raised from all possible sources to fund desired
private and public improvements.
Chapter 4 — Recommendations — Overall study Area (in part)
4.1.5 West Lionshead - Residential/ Mixed -Use Hub
West Lionshead includes the Vail Associates Service Yard, Holy Cross site, Vail
Professional Building site, Cascade Crossings site, Glen Lyon Office Building site,
former gas station site and the Eagle River Water and Sanitation site.
This area of Lionshead is generally under utilized and from an aesthetic standpoint
is not in keeping with what the Town would like to see Lionshead become as it
redevelops in the coming years. The Town of Vail does place a high value on
maintaining the office and retail areas in West Lionshead and any redevelopment
should reasonably increase the square footage of existing office and have "no net
loss" of retail square footage in West Lionshead.
With their recent acquisition of additional properties in this area, Vail Resorts has the
opportunity to bring lift service to this part of Lionshead. Lift service brings with it
great potential for the re- development of this area and in doing so expand all of
Lionshead to the west with improved pedestrian connections, new retail and office
activity and other improvements. While lift access will certainly energize this area
during the winter months, attention should be given to creating a year -round
attraction within this area of Lionshead (see detailed plan recommendations in
Chapter 5)
The master plan recommends that this hub become a residential/ mixed use area
with an emphasis on meeting the needs of both the local community and our guests.
Appropriate uses could include high density residential development, lodging,
community and visitor based office and retail space, employee housing and parking,
bus or transit functions and a ski lift connection to Vail Mountain. The catalyst for
this mixed use hub is ski lift access to Vail Mountain. Consideration should be given
to integrating employee housing into the redevelopment of West Lionshead in
accordance with the Town's employee housing policies and regulations. To the
extent possible development patterns in this area should reflect north -south
orientation of buildings, visual penetrations to the mountain, and a pedestrian
oriented environment. The degree of north -south building orientation may be
difficult given the relatively narrow east -west orientation of this area. In addition, the
introduction of ski lift access in this location creates a catalyst for a structured public
parking facility. All service and delivery demands created by development in this
area shall be accommodated on -site.
The site will continue to accommodate the existing and potentially expanded
functions of the Vail sanitation plant. The mountain service yard could be reduced in
size, as some functions can be moved to less central locations. It may also be
possible to relocate the entire mountain service yard to a new location in the West
Lionshead area which would allow for greater flexibility in the redevelopment of this
site. However as the area develops it is critical that new uses be connected to the
primary pedestrian corridors and that they be served by the Town of Vail in -town
transit system.
Chapter 5 — Detailed Plan Recommendations (in part)
5.17 West Lionshead
West Lionshead includes the Vail Associates Service Yard, Holy Cross site, Vail
Professional Building site, Cascade Crossings site, Glen Lyon Office Building site, former
gas station site and the Eagle River Water and Sanitation site.
5.17.1 South Frontage Road Improvements and Vehicular Access
Planning for West Lionshead must consider two different scenarios: the realignment
of South Frontage Road and its retention in the existing alignment. While the
introduction of lift service is viable in either of these Frontage Road alternatives, site
design will vary depending upon what happens to the Frontage Road alignment.
See Figures 4 -9a, and 4 -9b for the Frontage Road realignment alternatives.
Notwithstanding these different Frontage Road scenarios, there should be an
increase of existing office square footage and "no net loss" of retail square footage
as a result of the redevelopment of these parcels. Furthermore, service and delivery
for West Lionshead shall occur underground orbe hidden from public view. Service
and delivery truck turning maneuvers should not negatively impact traffic flow on the
South Frontage Road. With a realignment of vehicular access points, attention
should be given to the location of service and parking areas.
a. Retention of Existing Frontage Road Alignment
If the Frontage Road remains in its current location the Maintenance Yard /Holy
Cross parcels, the Vail Professional Building site, and /Cascade Crossing and the
Glen Lyon Office Building site all remain viable development sites. The most viable
site for a public parking facility would be the Maintenance Yard /Holy Cross parcels.
While other lift locations are feasible, the old gas station site is a viable location for a
base terminal. This location would require a grade separated pedestrian crossing
over the Frontage Road to the Maintenance Yard /Holy Cross parcels. A strong
east -west oriented pedestrian corridor with ground floor retail uses would be
necessary to create a strong connection between this area and the rest of
Lionshead. Under this Frontage Road scenario the Vail Professional Building site
and Cascade Crossing could be developed as a contiguous parcel.
In keeping with Policy Objective 2.3.4, Improved Access and Circulation, of the Plan,
opportunities for public transportation and vehicular circulation improvements shall
be explored in conjunction with any future redevelopment of the sites. Possible
opportunities for improvements may include, an improved mass transit stop,
relocated /reduced /shared points of entry/exiting, restricted access points,
acceleration/ deceleration lanes, greater sight distances, dedicated turning lanes,
landscaped medians and skier drop -off.
In the redevelopment of Cascade Crossing and the Glen Lyon Office Building site
under the current configuration of the Frontage Road, the bus stops in front of said
properties shall be enhanced with, for example, shelters, benches, and landscaping.
Pedestrian connections shall be improved from the bus shelters, across the South
Frontage Road and to and from the surrounding buildings to provide safe and
attractive pedestrian crossing and connections. Improvements may include
crosswalks, walkways, pedestrian crossing warning lights, medians, and signage.
b. Frontage Road Realignment
The greatest benefit of this realignment alternative is that it results in one very large
and contiguous development parcel and in doing so integrates the Maintenance
Yard /Holy Cross site with the West Day Lot by removal of the barrier created by the
existing Frontage Road alignment. It also creates the best pedestrian environment
in creating an extension of the Lionshead Retail area in that it provides the potential
to establish a convenient and desirable pedestrian connection to the rest of
Lionshead.
With this alternative the most viable site for a public parking facility would still be the
Maintenance Yard /Holy Cross parcels. With the re- location of the Frontage Road lift
access out of the old gas station site would not require a grade separated
pedestrian crossing to the Maintenance Yard /Holy Cross parcels. However, a grade
separated crossing over the Red Sandstone Creek would be needed to link the Holy
Cross site with the Vail Professional Building site.
This alternative would also present the opportunity for enhancing Red Sandstone
Creek to make it more accessible to the community and an aesthetically pleasing
water feature. Enhancements might include; streambank stabilization/
beautification, natural stream drop structures, interactive low flow areas and general
improvements for wetlands and wildlife habitat. Any modification or enhancement
to the creek corridor would be subject to U. S. Army Corp of Engineers approval. A
strong east -west oriented pedestrian corridor with ground floor retail uses would be
necessary to create a strong connection between this area and the rest of
Lionshead.
In keeping with Policy Objective 2.3.4, Improved Access and Circulation, of the Plan,
opportunities for public transportation and vehicular circulation improvements shall
be explored in conjunction with any future redevelopment of the Frontage Road and
interior roads within the redevelopment of the West Lionshead sites. Possible
opportunities for improvements may include improved mass transit stops,
relocated /reduced /shared points of entry/exiting, restricted access points,
acceleration/ deceleration lanes, roundabouts at major intersections, greater sight
distances, dedicated turning lanes, landscaped medians and skier drop -off.
5.17.2 Pedestrian and Bike Access
As compared to a separate, free - standing portal, West Lionshead is considered a
part of the greater Lionshead area. In order for this area to be successful, it is
important to have a strong pedestrian connection with the rest of Lionshead.
Streetscape improvements including bike lanes or trails and sidewalks should be
incorporated in any redevelopment along West Lionshead Circle and the South
Frontage Road to improve the viability of mixed uses in West Lionshead.
Improvements to street lighting, walking surfaces, trails, seating areas and public art
that facilitate safe and attractive pedestrian and bike movement are strongly
encouraged. Said improvements may necessitate the need for access easements
through the sites. In the redevelopment of West Lionshead, pedestrian and bike
connections shall be made to integrate with the rest of Lionshead and Cascade
Village.
There is an existing recreation path that runs across the southwest corner of the
Glen Lyon Office Building site. If the site redevelops the recreation path shall be
enhanced to meet town recreational path standards and to provide a safe and
attractive pedestrian and bike experience. The improvements shall include a public
easement over the path where necessary.
5.17.3 Preservation of Existing Office and Retail Space
There shall be an increase in office space and no net loss of retail space in West
Lionshead. Opportunities for increasing the square footage of office and retail
beyond the existing conditions in West Lionshead shall be evaluated during the
development review process. Currently, West Lionshead offices and businesses
offer a variety of local services and amenities, which is important to preserve with
the redevelopment of West Lionshead. During the winter months, the proposed ski
lift in West Lionshead and the associated parking will generate significant pedestrian
traffic and activity. However, consideration should be given to how West Lionshead
can be an active and vibrant place year- round.
One way this can be accomplished is the reinforcement of a well - crafted program of
specialty retailers, offices, and restaurants that attract both tourists and local
residents. Also, quality architecture and the creation of appealing outdoor spaces in
and of itself will encourage people to visit this area. An active program of public art,
residential units that are used for "artists in residence" or a culinary school are
examples of uses that could create a catalyst for activity. In conjunction with any
application to develop a new ski lift, a market study which analyzes the appropriate
amount of office /retail square footage shall be included in the redevelopment of
West Lionshead.
5.17.4 Relationship to Red Sandstone Creek and Gore Creek
Red Sandstone Creek and Gore Creek abut the Glen Lyon Office Building site,
former gas station site, Holy Cross site and the Vail Professional Building site. Any
redevelopment of these parcels should consider how the creeks can be enhanced
and made an amenity of this redevelopment area. A substantial stand of mature
trees exists on the banks of the two creeks, with low lying brush on the shores.
Every effort shall be taken to preserve the substantial trees and natural steep slopes
along the banks of both creeks. While the natural riparian corridor of these streams
needs to remain protected and preserved, the physical and visual relationships and
references between adjacent development and the stream tract should be
strengthened. Improved public access and utilization of Gore Creek and Red
Sandstone Creek for fishing and other recreational purposes is strongly encouraged
to create a catalyst for activity and enjoyment of the streams.
5.17.6 Redevelopment Considerations for Glen Lyon Office Building site
Consistent with its location at the western edge of West Lionshead and with respect
to the extensive frontage along Gore Creek, it is appropriate to recognize certain
development limitations and opportunities regardless of the underlying zone district.
5.17.6.1 Height
Building heights shall be consistent with Figure 5 -25, West Lionshead
Building Massing and Height Limitations. Notwithstanding the height
limitations set forth in Figure 5 -25, the maximum height for buildings on
the Glen Lyon Office Building site shall not exceed 56 feet.
5.17.6.2 Residential Land Use and Density
Existing physical improvements on the Glen Lyon Office Building site
include a three -story building with 10, 829 square feet of general office
space and a surface parking lot. Because of the site's physical location
along Gore Creek, it's accessibility to Lionshead Village, and the
adjacent potential redevelopment including a ski -lift and activity center, it
may be appropriate to introduce a mix of uses on site. If residential uses
are proposed, the use shall be consistent with the Master Plan goal to
increase the number of `Live Beds' in Lionshead. Residential density on
the site should be studied and proposed in a manner that is compatible
with the character and scale of adjacent uses and Gore Creek.
Residential uses should be located on the basement or garden level and
second floor and above in buildings on -site. If residential uses are
proposed on the street level or first floor, the vitality of the pedestrian
and bike experience shall be considered along with the function and
character of the adjacent uses and structure design. The mixture of land
uses on the Glen Lyon Office Building site shall maintain a balance
between residential, office/ commercial and recreational uses to serve
both the visitor and the permanent resident.
5.17.6.3 Office Land Use
Consistent with the Master Plan requirement for an increase of office
space, the existing 10, 829 square feet of office space shall be replaced
and increased on -site.
5.17.6.4 Employee Housing
All (100 %) of the employee housing requirements associated with the
Glen Lyon Office Building site, as required by the Vail Town Code, shall
be met on -site.
5.17.6.5 Landscape Preservation & Relationship to Red Sandstone & Gore
Creeks
The Glen Lyon Office Building site borders on the Red Sandstone Creek
along the east property line and the Gore Creek along the south property
line. The redevelopment of the Glen Lyon Office Building site should
consider how the creeks can be enhanced and made an amenity of the
area. A substantial stand of mature trees exists on the banks of the two
creeks, with low lying brush on the shores. Every effort shall be taken to
preserve the substantial trees and natural steep slopes along the banks
of both creeks. While the natural riparian corridor of these streams
needs to remain protected and preserved, the physical and visual
relationships and references between adjacent development and the
stream tract should be strengthened. Improved public access and
utilization of Gore Creek and Red Sandstone Creek for fishing and other
recreational purposes is strongly encouraged to create a catalyst for
activity and enjoyment of the streams.
Vail Land Use Plan (in part)
The goals articulated here reflect the desires of the citizenry as expressed through the
series of public meetings that were held throughout the project. A set of initial goals were
developed which were then substantially revised after different types of opinions were
brought out in the second meeting. The goal statements were developed to reflect a
general consensus once the public had had the opportunity to reflect on the concepts and
ideas initially presented. The goal statements were then revised through the review process
with the Task Force, the Planning and Environmental Commission and Town Council and
now represent policy guidelines in the review process for new development proposals.
These goal statements should be used in conjunction with the adopted Land Use Plan map,
in the evaluation of any development proposal.
The goal statements which are reflected in the design of the proposed Plan are as follows:
1. General Growth / Development
1.1 Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment, maintaining a
balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to serve both
the visitor and the permanent resident.
1.2 The quality of the environment including air, water and other natural
resources should be protected as the Town grows.
1.3 The quality of development should be maintained and upgraded whenever
possible.
1.5 Commercial strip development of the Valley should be avoided.
1.7 New subdivisions should not be permitted in high geologic hazard areas.
1.8 Recreational and public facility development on National Forest lands may
be permitted where no high hazards exist if:
a) Community objectives are met as articulated in the Comprehensive Plan.
b) The parcel is adjacent to the Town boundaries, with good access.
c) The affected neighborhood can be involved in the decision - making
process.
1.12 Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing
developed areas (infill areas).
1.13 Vail recognizes its stream tract as being a desirable land feature as well as
its potential for public use.
2. Skier /Tourist Concerns
2.1 The community should emphasize its role as a destination resort while
accommodating day visitors.
2.2 The ski area owner, the business community and the Town leaders should
work together closely to make existing facilities and the Town function more
efficiently.
2.3 The ski area owner, the business community and the Town leaders should
work together to improve facilities for day skiers.
2.4 The community should improve summer recreational options to improve
year -round tourism.
2.5 The community should improve non -skier recreational options to improve
year -round tourism.
2.7 The Town of Vail should improve the existing park and open space lands
while continuing to purchase open space.
2.8 Day skier needs for parking and access should be accommodated through
creative solutions such as:
a) Increase busing from out of town.
b) Expanded points of access to the mountain by adding
additional base portals.
c) Continuing to provide temporary surface parking.
d) Addition of structured parking.
10
3. Commercial
3.2 The Village and Lionshead areas the best location for hotels to serve the
future needs of destination skiers.
3.3 Hotels are important to the continued success of the Town of Vail, therefore
conversion to condominiums should be discouraged.
3.4 Commercial growth should be concentrated in existing commercial areas to
accommodate both local and visitor needs.
3.5 Entertainment oriented business and cultural activities should be
encouraged in the core areas to create diversity. More night -time
businesses, on -going events and sanctioned "street happenings" should be
encouraged.
4. Village Core/ Lionshead
4.1 Future commercial development should continue to occur primarily in
existing commercial areas. Future commercial development in the Core
areas needs to be carefully controlled to facilitate access and delivery.
5. Residential
5.1 Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in existing,
platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high hazards do not
exist.
5.2 Quality time share units should be accommodated to help keep occupancy
rates up.
5.3 Affordable employee housing should be made available through private
efforts, assisted by limited incentives, provided by the Town of Vail, with
appropriate restrictions.
5.4 Residential growth should keep pace with the market place demands for a
full range of housing types.
5.5 The existing employee housing base should be preserved and upgraded.
Additional employee housing needs should be accommodated at varied
sites throughout the community.
6. Community Services
6.1 Services should keep pace with increased growth.
6.2 The Town of Vail should play a role in future development through balancing
growth with services.
6.3 Services should be adjusted to keep pace with the needs of peak periods.

VIII. SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT MAJOR AMENDMENT REVIEW CRITERIA
The Town Code provides nine design criteria which shall be used in evaluating the merits of
a major amendment to an established SDD. It shall be the burden of the applicant to
demonstrate that submittal material and the proposed development plan comply with each
of the following standards, or demonstrate that one or more of them is not applicable, or that
a practical solution consistent with the public interest has been achieved.
This application is somewhat unique in that the applicant is requesting that a portion of an
established SDD be removed to become part of a proposed development site separate from
the current SDD. Staff has performed a review of these criteria based upon the potential
impacts to the remaining SDD as follows:
A. Consideration of Factors Regarding Special Development Districts
A. Design compatibility and sensitivity to the immediate environment, neighborhood
and adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building
height, buffer zones, identity, character, visual integrity and orientation.
As is identified under Section III, Background, of this memorandum the Town's adopted
processes for amending the Vail Land use Plan and the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan were followed to lay the framework for the inclusion of the GLOB in the
overall planning being undertaken with regard to the proposed Ever Vail project. The
inclusion of the GLOB within the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan and thus a
change in the land use designation acknowledged the influence that the previous
expansion of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan boundaries would have on the
GLOB site. The recommendations included in the Master Plan imposed development
standards to ensure that the desired scale, bulk, and mass that are desired will be
achieved. Future development on the GLOB site will be required to comply with
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan and the proposed Lionshead Mixed Use 2
13
District.
The request to remove Development Area D (GLOB) from SDD No. 4, Cascade Village,
will not have any negative effect on the remaining portions of the SDD. SDD No. 4,
Cascade Village, was adopted with multiple development areas which resulted in the
desired development which include but are not limited to, a hotel, single - family and
duplex residential, multi - family residential, and an office building. Each development
area in the SDD was granted specific development potential which was to be used
within that area and not to be transferred. If approved, this amendment to SDD No. 4
would only occur in conjunction with the recording of the proposed Ever Vail Subdivision
Final Plat.
Staff believes the proposed amendments comply with this criterion.
B. Uses, activity and density which provide a compatible, efficient and workable
relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
As discussed under Criterion A, the Town's adopted processes for including the GLOB
within the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan were followed to establish the
appropriate development standards to ensure a development outcome on the site which
would be compatible, efficient, and workable with the surrounding uses and activities.
The inclusion of the GLOB within the Master Plan and now within the proposal for the
overall Ever Vail project will result in a comprehensive redevelopment for the western
edge of Lionshead. The physical separation of the GLOB site from the remainder of the
SDD caused by Gore Creek and steep grades has resulted in the current development
on the site being somewhat isolated. Removal of the site from the SDD and inclusion in
the proposed Ever Vail project will result in better planning and redevelopment of the
site as it will become a part of the whole.
Staff believes that the proposal does comply with this criterion.
C. Compliance with parking and loading requirements as outlined in Chapter 12 -10
of the Vail Town Code.
The application does not include a specific development proposal at this time. All future
development proposals will be required to comply fully with the Town's adopted parking
and loading requirements as required under the Major Exterior Alteration review
process.
Staff believes that the application complies with this criterion at this time.
D. Conformity with the applicable elements of the Vail Comprehensive Plan, Town
policies and Urban Design Plan.
Amendments already made to the Vail Land Use Plan and the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan established the development standards by which
redevelopment on the GLOB site will be reviewed. The portion of the Ever Vail
Subdivision that is occupied by the GLOB site will have to comply with Section 5.17.6,
Redevelopment Considerations for Glen Lyon Office Building Site, Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan. Within these site specific recommendations and
14
standards a maximum height of 56 feet is permitted on the site, the 10,829 square feet
of office space and all required employee housing units are to be replaced on -site. It is
anticipated that the specific development application for the Ever Vail project will comply
with the recommendations and standards of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master
Plan.
Staff believes that the application complies with all the goals and objectives of the Vail
Comprehensive Plan, specifically the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan.
E. Identification and mitigation of natural and /or geologic hazards that affect the
property on which the special development district is proposed.
According to the Official Town of Vail Geologic Hazard Maps, the Ever Vail development
site is not located in any geologically sensitive areas. Staff believes that the application
complies with this criterion.
F. Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to
produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural features,
vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.
The application does not include a specific development proposal at this time. Any
development proposal will be required to comply with the Town's adopted site coverage
and landscaping requirements and will be reviewed for sensitivity to natural features.
Staff believes the proposal complies with this criterion.
G. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing on
and off -site traffic circulation.
Removal of Development Area D from SDD No. 4 has no impacts to the entirety of the
SDD. Within SDD No. 4 the five development areas were provided specific
development potential and land uses. No portion of the development potential in the
SDD is linked as to create shared interests. Removal of Development Area D does not
result in the loss of any development potential.
The application does not include a specific development proposal at this time. All future
development proposals will be required to comply fully with the Town's adopted transit
plan recommendations and requirements and Town of Vail comments regarding
pedestrian and vehicular circulation.
Staff believes the proposal complies with this criterion.
H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and functions.
Removal of Development Area D (GLOB) from SDD No. 4 has no impacts to the entirety
of the SDD. Within SDD No. 4 the five development areas were provided specific
development potential and land uses. No portion of the development potential in the
SDD is linked as to create shared interests. Removal of Development Area D does not
result in the loss of any development potential.
15
The application does not include a specific development proposal at this time. All future
development proposals will be required to comply with the Town's adopted site
coverage, landscaping requirements. Compliance with the site coverage and
landscaping requirements and the review of individual major exterior alteration
applications will result in site plan and building designs which are responsive and
sensitive to natural features.
Town Staff has discussed with the applicant the need to propose amendments to the
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan to establish adopted view corridors.
Additionally, the intent of the applicant is to enhance the recreation opportunities
associated with Red Sandstone Creek and Gore Creek through improvements and the
proposed establishment of a conservation easement.
Staff believes the proposal complies with this criterion.
I. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the special development
district.
The applicant is proposing to remove Development Area D (GLOB) from SDD No. 4,
Cascade Village, and therefore this criterion will does not apply.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: January 24, 2011
SUBJECT: A request for a recommendation to the Vail Town Council for an
amendment to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, pursuant to
Section 2.8, Adoption and Amendment of the Master Plan, Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan, to amend the recommendations for West
Lionshead (Ever Vail) and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(PEC110002)
Applicant: Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group
Planner: Warren Campbell
SUMMARY
The applicant, Ever Vail, LLC. represented by the Mauriello Planning Group is
requesting a recommendation to the Vail Town Council for an amendment to the
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, pursuant to Section 2.8, Adoption and
Amendment of the Master Plan, Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, to
amend the recommendations for West Lionshead (Ever Vail) and setting forth
details in regard thereto. Amendments to Chapter 4, Master Plan
Recommendations — Overall Study Area, and Chapter 5, Detailed Plan
Recommendations, are proposed to provide more specific recommendations and
standards for the Ever Vail development.
Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Section VI of this
memorandum and the evidence and testimony presented, the Community
Development Department recommends the Commission forward a
recommendation of approval, with conditions, to the Town Council regarding
the proposed amendments to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicant, Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group is
requesting a recommendation to the Vail Town Council for proposed
amendments to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan. The proposed
amendments are intended to change those portions of the Master Plan which no
longer reflect the desired outcomes of the West Lionshead properties that will
comprise the Ever Vail development. The amendments will establish the desired
recommendations and standards for the Ever Vail development. The purpose of
the amendments are not to amend or otherwise alter the overall goals, objectives
and policies stated in the Master Plan.
1
The Master Plan recommendations for West Lionshead (Ever Vail) were adopted
in 2007, and included three key concepts that would result in the creation of a
new portal to Vail Mountain. Those key concepts are the relocation and
realignment of the South Frontage Road, public parking spaces in addition to any
zoning requirement, and the incorporation of a ski lift (gondola). The proposed
amendments are the result of approximately three years of review of the
redevelopment of West Lionshead with the development known now as Ever
Vail. The amendments propose to capture the current thinking about the desired
results within Ever Vail. The amendments include several images which will
exhibit the specific and general goals and objectives of Ever Vail. These
concepts for layouts and design include, but are not limited to, the South
Frontage Road relocation, the gondola, the transit center, the public parking, the
mountain operations service yard, loading and delivery, pedestrian and vehicular
circulation, and public plazas and walkways.
Staff has attached the applicant's proposed amendments to the Master Plan
(Attachment A). Staff has attached their suggested amendments to the
applicant's request (Attachment B). The proposed amendments in the
attachment are indicated with additional language in bold and language to be
removed (deleted) shown in stroke thre

Chapter 2, Introduction
2.1 Purpose of the Master Plan
"This master plan was initiated by the Town of Vail to encourage
redevelopment and new development initiatives in the Lionshead
study area. Both public and private interests have recognized that
Lionshead today lacks the economic vitality of Vail and fails to
offer a world class resort experience. Lionshead's economic
potential has been inhibited by a number of recurrent themes:
• Lack of growth in accommodation units ( "hot beds');
• Poor retail quality;
• Deterioration of existing buildings;
• Uninteresting and disconnected pedestrian environment;
• Mediocre architectural character; and the
• Absence of incentives for redevelopment.
This master is a comprehensive guide for property owners
proposing to undertake development or redevelopment of their
properties and the municipal officials responsible for planning
public improvements. The plan outlines the Town's objectives and
goals for the enhancement of Lionshead and proposes
recommendation, incentives, and requirements for redevelopment
and new development."
2.2 Definition of a Master Plan
In the development of the Lionshead Master Plan, the following
definition has been used as the basis for this work:
A master plan is a guide, a flexible framework for future action. It
articulates a community's fundamental land use policies,
principles, and goals in a broad and general way. It plans for the
future physical development or redevelopment of an area of the
community, including its functional and circulation systems and its
public facilities.
The land use policies in a master plan are generally implemented
through zoning ordinances. Existing zoning and land use codes
may be modified and new provisions enacted in order to conform
to the master plan and carry out the plan's objectives.
A master plan does not convey approval for particular
development proposals or concepts, nor can it be implemented in
a short time frame. After adoption of the Lionshead Master Plan,
every development proposal will have to go through the applicable
development review and approval process, with its attendant
public notices and public hearings. A proposal's adherence to the
policies contained in the adopted master plan will be one of the
factors analyzed by staff, the Planning and Environmental
Commission (PEC), the Design Review Board (DRB), and the
Town Council (as applicable) in determining whether to approve or
disapprove the specific proposal.
31
2.3 Policy Objectives
The Town Council adopted six policy objectives on November 4,
1996 to outline the important issues to be addressed in the master
plan and to provide a policy framework for the master planning
process.
2.3.1 Renewal and Redevelopment
Lionshead can and should be renewed and redeveloped to
become a warmer, more vibrant environment for guests
and residents. Lionshead needs an appealing and
coherent identity, a sense of place, a personality, a
purpose, and an improved aesthetic character.
2.3.2 Vitality and Amenities
We must seize the opportunity to enhance guest
experience and community interaction through expanded
and additional activities and amenities such as performing
arts venues, conference facilities, ice rinks, streetscape,
parks and other recreational improvements.
2.3.3 Stronger Economic Base Through Increased Live Beds
In order to enhance the vitality and viability of Vail, renewal
and redevelopment in Lionshead must promote improved
occupancy rates and the creation of additional bed base
( "live beds" or "warm beds') through new lodging products.
2.3.4 Improved Access and Circulation
The flow of pedestrian, vehicular, bicycle and mass transit
traffic must be improved within and through Lionshead.
2.3.5 Improved Infrastructure
The infrastructure of Lionshead (streets, walkways,
transportation systems, parking, utilities, loading and
delivery systems, snow removal and storage capacity) and
its public and private services must be upgraded to support
redevelopment and revitalization efforts and to meet the
service expectations of our guests and residents.
2.3.6 Creative Financing for Enhanced Private Profits and Public
Revenues
Financially creative and fiscally realistic strategies must be
identified so that adequate capital may be raised from all
possible sources to fund desired private and public
improvements.

VI. CRITERIA FOR REVIEW OF PROPOSED MASTER PLAN AMENDMENTS
The applicants are proposing to amend Chapter 4, Recommendations Overall
Study Area, and Chapter 5, Detailed Plan Recommendations of the Plan, to
include detailed recommendations for development within the "West Lionshead"
area for the Ever Vail Development.
Amendments to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan require a public
hearing review process as outlined in Section 12 -3 -6 of the Town Code. If
approved, amendments are adopted by resolution by the Vail Town Council.
According to the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, amendments to the
Master Plan must address the following review criteria:
How have conditions changed since the plan was adopted?
The Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan was adopted in December of 1998.
Since its adoption there have been several resolutions approved to include
properties such as the Vail Professional Building, Cascade Crossing, and most
recently the Glen Lyon Office Building within the study area boundaries for the
Master Plan. These properties were included within the study area boundaries
and recommendations and standards for the redevelopment of the sites were
incorporated into Chapters 4 and 5 of the Master Plan. The result of the
incorporation of these properties and the associated recommendations for
redevelopment is the proposed Ever Vail development.
Conditions have changed since the adoption of amendments to the West
Lionshead recommendations in 2007, which warrant the adoption of
amendments to the Master Plan. The Master Plan does not currently reflect the
most recent concepts anticipated for the Ever Vail development. Those concepts
include the incorporation of the Glen Lyon Office Building site into the planning
for Ever Vail, the single phased relocation of the South Frontage Road West, and
the basic concepts for bulk, mass, heights, and structure layout to create public
spaces and streets. The proposed amendments seek to provide clear direction
on the desired outcomes to be associated with Ever Vail. The amendments
include text and images which begin to provide greater framework and validity to
the plans and designs which have been reviewed in earnest over the past
several years.
The proposed amendments are also to serve as a reflection of the findings of the
fiscal and economic analysis performed by Economic and Planning Systems
which was presented to Town Council in late 2010 and early 2011.
How is the plan in error?
Staff does not believe the plan is in error. The proposed amendments seek to
provide the clear direction the Town and applicant are seeking for the Ever Vail
development. The amendments attempt to capture the concepts and ideas that
the Planning and Environmental Commission, Town Council, Staff, consultants,
and the applicant have been discussing since the 2007 amendments to the
Master Plan. As Ever Vail will be a project which is completed through multiple
phases Staff and the applicant believed that amendments to the Master Plan
9
should be adopted to memorialize several key concepts and ideas in order to
preserve them for discussion and inclusion when proceeding with future
applications such as the major exterior alteration applications.
How would an addition, deletion, or change to the plan be in concert with
the plan in general?
The proposed amendments are in concert with the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan as they are not amending any of the adopted policies, objective, or
goals that are currently recommended for the West Lionshead area. Ever Vail is
located within the West Lionshead area and the proposed amendments provided
greater specificity with regard to the desired outcomes to be achieved through
redevelopment on the site. Staff believes the amendments further existing
concepts contained within the Master Plan thus they remain in concert with the
plan in general.
VII. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department recommends that the Planning and
Environmental Commission forwards a recommendation of approval, with
conditions, to the Vail Town Council of a proposed amendments to the
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, pursuant to Section 2.8, Adoption and
Amendment of the Master Plan, Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, to
amend the recommendations for West Lionshead (Ever Vail) and setting forth
details in regard thereto. Staff's recommendation is based upon a review of the
criteria and findings as outlined in this memorandum and from the evidence and
testimony presented.
Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to forward a
recommendation of approval of this request; the Community Development
Department recommends the Commission pass the following motion:

4.6.2 South Frontage Road
Recommendations outlined below address the potential realignment re aligRrne of portions of the
frontage road, ingress and egress improvements, bicycle/ pedestrian improvements, and visual
improvements. For a detailed discussion of capacity and the impacts of future development on the
frontage road, see the traffic impact study contained in appendix A. Figure ^ -Q d n„ +on+i
-a- partial - real+gaaMenf ert #e F re ead. - With Vail Resorts' potential acquisition of the Glen
Lyon Office Building, and the acquisition of the Vail Professional Building and Cascade Crossing,
realignment of the South Frontage Road along the south side of 1 -70 is a reality. Study of this
realignment throughout 2007 and 2008 allowed the Town of Vail, Vail Resorts, CDOT and FHWA,
to come to a general agreement as to the road section, right -of -way width, and access points.
This alignment and design is the preferred alternative, and is indicated in figure 4 -9.

5.17 Ever Vail
Ever Vail is a 12.6 acre site and is located in West Lionshead (see Figure 5 -21). Ever Vail \^
II ien�ad includes the Vail Associates Service Yard, Holy Cross site, Vail Professional Building site,
Cascade Crossings site, Glen Lyon Office Building site, and the former gas station site and the E ag e
River \A /;;4er app Cap si te The subject property is divided into two parcels within the Ever
Vail Subdivision and should be zoned Lionshead Mixed Use 2 District. Ever Vail should be
redeveloped to enhance and improve the guest and community experience and improve Vail
Resorts' ability to service and maintain mountain facilities. Due to the large size of the
development site, Ever Vail will likely be redeveloped in phases over time. Ever Vail should be a
residential /mixed use hub that includes key components such as a ski lift (gondola), increased
office space, new retail space, public parking, realignment of the frontage road, relocated
mountain operations and maintenance yard, employee housing, a 100+ room hotel, public transit
facilities, a community recreation facility and improvements for connectivity with the rest of
Lionshead and Cascade Village for pedestrians, bicycles and vehicles.
Figure 5 -21: Conceptual Ever Vail Site Plan (Staff recommended condition of approval: Expand view
to include the western roundabout and Simba Run underpass).
5.17.1 South Frontage Road Realignment
The relocation of the South Frontage Road in the Ever Vail area has been a concept embodied in
this master plan since its adoption in 1998. Ever Vail includes the relocation and realignment of
the South Frontage Road consistent with the recommended actions and policy objections found
in sections 1.3.4 and 2.3.4. The South Frontage Road realignment should be relocated as detailed
in the road relocation plans approved by the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and
as shown in figure 5 -21a. The relocated South Frontage Road includes a 2 -lane roundabout at
the eastern end of Ever Vail. This roundabout connects the relocated frontage road with the new
extension of West Forest Road. Access to the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District should
be maintained both along West Forest Road and via an easement towards the eastern end of Ever
Vail. On the South Frontage Road west of Ever Vail, a roundabout with a connection to the Simba
Run underpass is anticipated and further described in section 4.6.6. The grades of the relocated
South Frontage Road should be designed to accommodate the construction of the roundabout
and Simba Run underpass (see figure 5 -21b).
b. FFE)Rtage Read Rea 0 g Rr"
The greatest benefit of t4s the realignment of the South Frontage Road a is that it results in
one *&�y large --and contiguous development parcel and in doing so integrates the Maintenance
Yard /Holy Cross site with the West Day Lot (Ritz - Carlton Residences) by removal of the barrier created
by the existing Frontage Road alignment. It also creates the best pedestrian environment possible in
31
creating an extension of the Lionshead Retail area in that it provides the potential to establish a
convenient and desirable pedestrian connection to the rest of Lionshead.

5.17.2 Vehicular Access and Circulation
In keeping with Policy Objective 2.3.4, Improved Access and Circulation, of the Plan, opportunities for
public transportation and vehicular circulation improvements shall be explored in conjunction with any
future redevelopment of the South Frontage Road and interior roads within the redevelopment of the
West Lionshead sites. Possible opportunities for improvements may include improved mass transit
stops, relocated /reduced /shared points of entry /exiting, restricted access points, acceleration/
deceleration lanes, roundabouts at major intersections, greater sight distances, dedicated turning lanes,
landscaped medians and skier drop -off.
It is essential that Ever Vail provide safe and efficient access points from the road networks
adjacent to the site. Ever Vail must provide vehicular access for cars and trucks to and from the
Eagle River Water and Sanitation District (ERWSD) site, which is adjacent to the subject property.
The design for the relocated South Frontage Road anticipates the construction of a roundabout
that connects the South Frontage Road to the North Frontage Road via the Simba Run
underpass. To accommodate this roundabout, the South Frontage Road will need to include
retaining walls to facilitate a drop in elevation as it moves west (see figure 5 -21b). The Simba
Run underpass will cross 1 -70 and provide an additional connection between the north and south
sides of Vail.
Ever Vail shall comply with the loading and delivery requirements of the Vail Town Code.
Furthermore, service and delivery for Ever Vail shall occur underground, fully enclosed and
screened from public view. Service and delivery truck turning maneuvers should not negatively
impact traffic flow on the South Frontage Road, West Forest Road or Market Street. With a
realignment of vehicular access points, attention should be given to the location of service and
parking areas.
9
5.17.3 Parking
Ever Vail shall be developed as a commercial core that includes mixed use development,
pedestrian streets and plazas, direct access to transit options, bicycle and pedestrian
connections and access to Vail Mountain. As a commercial core, Ever Vail should be
incorporated into the Town's adopted commercial core parking areas, which allow for reduced
parking requirements due to proximity to mixed use development. Ever Vail shall meet the
parking requirements of the Vail Town Code. The appropriate parking requirements for ski lifts
and other potential land uses that do not have a specified parking requirement will be determined
by the Planning and Environmental Commission.
Section 2.4: Ground Rules for the Master Planning Process, states that there shall be no net loss
of parking spaces now existing in Lionshead. Ever Vail must include parking spaces to offset
displaced existing parking from the former gas station site and Maintenance Yard/ Holy Cross
Site in accordance with section 4.8.1. These spaces are in addition to parking required by the
Vail Town Code and any public parking spaces provided by Ever Vail.
Ever Vail shall include an additional 400 public parking spaces, as identified in section 4.1.5:
West Lionshead — Residential /Mixed Use Hub. These spaces will address long term parking
needs, including the Town's goal to eliminate parking from the South Frontage Road as further
detailed in Section 4.8.3.3b of this master plan. During development and phasing of Ever Vail,
there will be periods of time when surface parking lots and staging areas may be necessary to
meet skier parking and construction needs. Surface parking lots shall not be maintained as a
long -term solution to meeting parking demand.
Skier drop -off is an essential component of a successful ski portal. Skier drop -off at Ever Vail
will improve the guest and local experience. The transit facility in Ever Vail should accommodate
10 -14 short -term or skier drop -off parking spaces. Short -term parking is a key aspect to
community commercial uses, allowing customers to quickly and conveniently patronize
establishments. Outside of skier drop -off and pick -up during peak periods, these spaces could be
utilized as short -term parking serving the commercial uses in close proximity, such as the
grocery store.
Skier drop -off spaces are also envisioned in the parking structure on the west side of Ever Vail.
Approximately 50 parking spaces should be available for short term parking and skier drop -off
when not in use for children's ski school activities, which traditionally occur one day per week in
the winter. These short -term parking spaces, given their location at approximately 500 feet from
the gondola, would provide skier drop -off capacity in the event the short -term spaces in the
transit facility are displaced due to expansion of bus activity.
5.17.4 Public Transportation
Public transportation is an essential element to successfully connect Ever Vail to other portals,
neighborhoods, and down valley. Ever Vail needs to provide access for in -town bus service,
outlying bus service, ECO Transit buses plus hotel and lodge shuttles.
Transit facilities are essential to facilitate the use of public transit, reduce parking demand and
provide transit connections for employees housed in Ever Vail. Adequate transit provides an
opportunity for employees, skiers, visitors and residents to connect Ever Vail with other
neighborhoods and communities. Ever Vail shall include a transit facility located adjacent to the
relocated South Frontage Road pursuant to section 1.3.5, which recommends creating dispersed
transit facilities in Lionshead. This facility shall be designed to accommodate the Town's
outlying bus routes as well as regional bus routes within a covered facility on the ground floor. It
is anticipated that the transit facility will accommodate a minimum of four bus bays. In the long-
N
term and as necessary, the facility may transition to up to 12 buses utilizing a pull off on the
South Frontage Road. The transit facilities are envisioned as a bus stop facility with very short
dwell times.
An area accommodating up to two in -town buses should be located on the eastern end of Ever
Vail (see figure 5 -22). Ever Vail should also provide a hotel and lodge shuttle drop -off area to
accommodate visitors from other locations within Vail. The drop -off area should be a surface
location on the west side of Ever Vail. The bus stop and drop -off area shall be enhanced with
shelters, benches, landscaping and other similar improvements.

5.17.5 Gondola and Vail Mountain Portal
Ever Vail shall include a gondola, which will transport visitors, guests, and residents to Vail
Mountain. A gondola will make Ever Vail a mountain portal and will enhance benefits of Ever Vail
to guests, locals and employees. The gondola will be located adjacent to Gore Creek and will
generally travel to the base of the current Chair 26 where a new mid - station will be located. The
gondola will replace Chair 26 and generally terminate in the Eagle's Nest area of Vail Mountain.
The gondola route will likely require easements and other approvals from the Town of Vail when
the route crosses Town -owned properties.

5.17.6 Pedestrian and Bike Access
As compared to a separate, free - standing portal, � l I innch° °r! Ever Vail is considered a part of the
greater Lionshead area. In order for this area to be successful, it is important to have a strong
pedestrian connection with the rest of Lionshead.
Streetscape improvements including bike lanes or trails and sidewalks should be incorporated in any
redevelopment along West Lionshead Circle and the South Frontage Road to improve the viability of
mixed uses in � l I innchQ ;;d Ever Vail. Improvements to street lighting, walking surfaces, trails,
seating areas and public art that facilitate safe and attractive pedestrian and bike movement are strongly
encouraged. Said improvements may necessitate the need for access easements through the sites. In
the redevelopment of �Al I innchead Ever Vail, pedestrian and bike connections shall be made to
integrate with the rest of Lionshead and Cascade Village.
Pedestrian and bicycle enhancements shall include a new bridge connecting the Gore Creek Trail
to Ever Vail, the redevelopment of the pedestrian bridge on the west side of Ever Vail, and path
enhancements to the Gore Creek Trail connection into Cascade Village and the path connecting
to the relocated South Frontage Road. All pedestrian path improvements must meet Town
recreation path standards and provide a safe and attractive pedestrian and bike experience.
��� ;aGtiVeP °n ;-;Ad bike improvements shall
include a public easement over the paths where necessary.
Pedestrian connections between Ever Vail and West Lionshead Circle shall be improved to
provide safe and attractive pedestrian crossings. Improvements may include raised crosswalks,
change in paving material, safe harbors, medians, and signage. See figure 5 -22c for conceptual
pedestrian and bicycle circulation plan.

5.17.7 Public Spaces and Plazas
Within Ever Vail, pedestrian plazas and walkways are essential to create an extension of
Lionshead where pedestrianization has been a key element of success. Elements of successful
public spaces include portals, edge definers, public space definers, landmarks and public art.
These place- making elements improve pedestrian circulation and provide aesthetically pleasing
places to congregate. They further enhance the livability of Ever Vail for employees, residents
and guests. The creation of gateways and portal is encouraged as a basic component of
redevelopment, especially in transition areas between different domains, or public, semi - public,
and private areas. It is essential that public spaces and plazas are not shaded by the sun at peak
use times. Further sun shade analysis will need to occur in order to ensure public spaces and
plazas are not dark and unwelcoming to users. Outdoor dining decks are encouraged to bridge
the gap between public and private space and provide vibrancy to the adjacent streets, walkways
and plazas as further detailed in section 4.10 of this Plan. Chapter 8, Architectural Design
Guidelines provides guidelines for these elements to ensure they are successfully implemented.
Elements of the natural environment need to interact with public spaces in order to connect the
urban and natural environments. Within Ever Vail, the improvements to Red Sandstone Creek, as
further detailed in section 5.17.10, will provide public spaces for recreation and congregation that
connect Ever Vail with the natural environment, as recommended by section 1.3.3.
Provisions should be made for public access to streets, paths and plazas through easements or
similar mechanisms to create a perceived public domain in Ever Vail. Additional dedications
and /or easements are necessary to facilitate the use of property by the public.
12
5.17.8 5 17 3 Preservation of Existing Office and Retail Space
Section 4.1.5: West Lionshead- Residential /Mixed Use Hub requires The.r shall -p an increase in
office space and no net loss of retail space in �Alest I inn hoar! Ever Vail. Opportunities for increasing the
square footage of office and retail beyond the existing conditions in `Ales+' i ^r ° Ever Vail shall be
evaluated during the development review process. Currently, �Alest L ie . psh offices and businesses in
Cascade Crossing, Vail Professional Building and the Glen Lyon Office Building offer a variety of
local services and amenities, which is important to preserve with the redevelopment of West I inncho�r!
Ever Vail. During the winter months, the proposed gondola ski loft in W"t I innchead Ever Vail and the
associated parking will generate significant pedestrian traffic and activity. However, consideration shall
std be given to how innchead- Ever Vail can be an active and vibrant place year- round.
One way this can be accomplished is the reinforcement of a well- crafted program of specialty retailers,
offices, and restaurants that attract both tourists and local residents. Also, quality architecture and the
creation of appealing outdoor spaces in and of itself will encourage people to visit this area. An active
program of public art, residential units that are used for "artists in residence" or a culinary school are
examples of uses that could create a catalyst for activity. In conjunction with any application to develop a
new ski lift, a market study which analyzes the appropriate amount of office /retail square footage shall be
included in the redevelopment of �Al I ie r! Ever Vail. A fiscal and economic analysis was
completed in December 2010 and is further discussed in section 5.17.9. Depending on the length
of phasing, this report may need to be updated.
There is approximately 30,000 sq. ft. of office space and 15,000 sq. ft. of retail space within the
Glen Lyon Office Building, Cascade Crossings, and Vail Professional Building properties. This
office space should be replaced within Ever Vail on the parcel located east of Red Sandstone
Creek to provide maximized connectivity of commercial uses to the rest of Lionshead. In order to
implement this policy, Ever Vail should include at least 34,000 square feet of office space and
30,000 square feet of retail space.
13
Figure 5 -22d: Conceptual Plan For Plazas, Public Spaces and Connections
5.17.9 Development Pattern, Program and Uses
In December of 2010, a Fiscal and Economic Analysis of Ever Vail was prepared by Economic
Planning Systems. The analysis found that Ever Vail will likely produce positive fiscal and
economic benefits to the Town. Ever Vail should reflect the recommendations of this analysis,
namely that retail and restaurant space should be limited to approximately 55,000 to 65,000
square feet in order to create an economically viable commercial project complementary to the
existing core commercial areas in Vail. Additional recommendations include the provision of hot
beds, meeting space and a grocery store in Ever Vail.
The land uses envisioned within Ever Vail are those allowed by the Lionshead Mixed Use 2 zone
district. Ever Vail will generally includes 14 separate above grade buildings constructed above
two below -grade structures with the bulk and mass conceptually shown in figure 5 -23 below.
The overall development program for Ever Vail is envisioned to contain the following land uses:

Ever Vail west of Red Sandstone Creek should be a residential neighborhood devoid of extensive
retail or restaurant uses. However, several non - residential uses should be located on the west
side, including, but not limited to, public parking, a space for community recreational activities, a
children's ski program meeting area, and other ancillary resort related uses. The concentration of
residential land uses on the west side of Ever Vail will serve as a population base for the
commercial components within the east side of Ever Vail and for other commercial core areas.
14
Figure 5 -23: Conceptual Bulk and Mass of Ever Vail
In furtherance of Policy Objectives 2.3.2 and 2.3.3, Ever Vail shall include a hotel and a 10,000-
15,000 square foot grocery store. These uses were identified in the economic and fiscal analysis
as critical elements to the success of Ever Vail. A hotel brings life and energy to Ever Vail and
improves the Town's inventory of "live" or "hot" beds, producing increased revenue to the Town.
A nightclub or other entertainment facility would be a good addition to the east side of Ever Vail
to provide a year -round use that has largely disappeared with the redevelopment of other
properties in Town.
Ever Vail provides an opportunity to relocate the Vail Resorts warehousing, office, and
vehicle /snowcat maintenance facilities currently located on the property to a below grade facility
connecting to the snowcat access bridge and trail to Vail Mountain. An alternative location for
these facilities is on Vail Mountain instead of within Ever Vail.
A number of conditional land uses may be appropriate in Ever Vail, subject to the approval of
conditional use permits. These uses may include a ski lift (gondola), public parking facilities,
conference and meeting rooms, residential uses on the first floor, recreational uses, and office
uses. As identified in section 4.1.5, a ski lift is envisioned as a catalyst for the redevelopment of
this site and more specifically, for the development of a structured public parking facility.
5.17.10 5 174 Relationship to Red Sandstone Creek and Gore Creek
Red Sandstone Creek and Gore Creek abut the Ever Vail project. The realignment of the South
Frontage Road provides increased opportunity to enhance these streams as public amenities.
Portions of Red Sandstone Creek and Gore Creek should be enhanced with the preservation of
wetland areas and enhancements to make these areas an amenity of Ever Vail and the Town (see
figure 5 -24). The project contemplates preservation of large trees where possible and the
relocation of others where practical (see figure 5 -24a). Red Sapds Greek ap d G (Qrook

public access and utilization of Gore Creek and Red Sandstone Creek for fishing and other recreational
purposes is strongly encouraged to create a catalyst for activity and enjoyment of the streams in
furtherance of Policy Objective 2.3.2 and as recommended by section 1.3.3. Enhancements such
as streambank stabilization/ beautification, natural stream drop structures, interactive low flow
areas and general improvements for wetlands and wildlife habitat are strongly encouraged. Any
modification or enhancement to the creek corridor shall be subject to U.S. Army Corp of
Engineers and Town of Vail approval.
Ever Vail shall include a public open space easement along Red Sandstone Creek generally
following the 100 -year floodplain line, as recommended by the Town's Comprehensive Open
Lands Plan and in furtherance of Policy Objective 2.3.3: Vitality and Amenities. This open space
easement also implements the recommended actions of section 1.3.3 by improving connections
with the natural environment and by creating green landscape corridors that penetrate into the
Lionshead environment.

5.17.11 Employee Housing
,�� � ��• 1y � - S
Employee housing has been identified as critical need within the Town of Vail. Employee
housing provides an employee base within close proximity to jobs. Employee housing within the
Town provides environmental, social and economic benefits including reduced traffic, increased
transit use, improved livability and a strengthened sense of community.
Section 4.9.4.3 West Lionshead identifies Ever Vail as an appropriate site to create dispersed
employee housing opportunities for permanent local residents. Ever Vail is an appropriate site
for employee housing due to its proximity to jobs, Vail Mountain, transit and the commercial
cores. Community commercial uses, such as the grocery store, should be included in Ever Vail
to accommodate the needs of employees living on site.
Ever Vail shall meet the adopted Commercial Linkage and Inclusionary Zoning regulations to
mitigate the development impact of employee generation. The provision of on -site employee
housing must be coordinated with the Ever Vail construction phasing plan.
5.17.12 Development Standards
5.17.12.1 Building Height
Buildings in Ever Vail should comply with the height limits of the Lionshead Mixed Use 2
District (82.5' maximum and 71' average). Notwithstanding the height allowances of
zoning, buildings shall generally "step down" as they approach Gore Creek and the
western end of Ever Vail (see figures 5 -25, 5 -25a and 5 -25b). Buildings along Gore Creek
and the western end of Ever Vail shall express no more than three to four stories before
17
"stepping back" to taller building mass. All buildings shall be articulated to avoid large
expanses of shear /unbroken wall planes.
The pedestrian area connecting the transit facility on the north end of Ever Vail to the
gondola on the south end of Ever Vail shall be considered a Primary Retail Pedestrian
Frontage for the purpose of measuring building height and "step backs" as described in
section 8.4.2.3 of the design guidelines.

5.17.12.2 Setbacks
Setbacks are necessary to provide a buffer between Ever Vail and adjacent properties.
Setbacks provide areas for landscaping, public art and other improvements that help
reduce the scale of buildings and further connect the urban and natural environments.
Along the South Frontage Road, the above -grade setbacks should be significant enough
to accommodate mature trees to buffer Ever Vail from the South Frontage Road and 1 -70.
Trees and other landscaping must be integrated into the Ever Vail setbacks rather than
only in adjacent street right -of -ways in order to ensure landscaping remains should the
right -of -way be utilized for roads or utilities.
To facilitate subterranean parking structures, below grade setbacks could approach the
Ever Vail property boundaries. Shoring may need to occur on adjacent properties.
However, footings and foundations, etc. should be located within the Ever Vail property
boundaries.
Because Ever Vail is one development site, zoning only dictates the setbacks around the
perimeter of Ever Vail and does not regulate the separation of buildings internal to the site.
Special attention should be paid to the sun shade analysis to ensure that buildings have
adequate separation and allow sunlight to penetrate public outdoor spaces such as
walkways and plazas. Figure 5 -25c depicts the spatial relationships between buildings,
setbacks and landscaping.

Landscaping serves many purposes, including the provision of shade, aesthetic
enhancement, stormwater management and a connection to the natural environment.
Landscaped areas also provide snow storage, seating areas and visual variation.
It is recognized that Ever Vail may include extensive below grade building site coverage.
Landscaping installed over underground structures may be calculated as landscape area
when it is permanent and provides adequate soil depth to allow vegetation maturity.
However, landscaping over underground structures does not contribute adequately to
stormwater management and additional measures will need to be taken to address this
issue. Non - permanent landscaping such as potted plants have proven to be ineffective in
20
achieving the intent of the Town's landscaping requirements and are strongly
discouraged.
Mature trees mitigate the visual impacts of buildings. Large trees should be planted on
the north end of Ever Vail to provide a buffer along the South Frontage Road. It is
understood that in order to relocate the South Frontage Road and to develop Ever Vail,
existing trees will need to be removed. Where possible, existing trees should be relocated
rather than removed.

Redevelopment in Lionshead has commonly included below grade structures to facilitate
subterranean parking, storage and loading and delivery. Often, the footprint of these
below grade structures is larger than the buildings constructed above. Ever Vail may

5.21.12 o 17 F; Architectural Improvements
The architectural design guidelines (Chapter 8) discuss several transition tools that can be used to adapt
an existing building to the new character and architectural quality desired for Lionshead. Given the high
visibility of the buildings in � l innchead- Ever Vail and the extent to which they influence the quality of
the experience of passers -by, all future development of the sites should be closely scrutinized for
compliance with the applicable architectural design guidelines.
The architectural design guidelines identify the architectural qualities desired in Lionshead. Ever
Vail should have a unique architectural character that may be a contemporary expression of
alpine architecture. It should nevertheless compliment the materials, forms and style of more
traditional Vail architecture.
Use of flat roof areas, varied roof forms, fenestration may be considered within Ever Vail beyond
the limitations permitted in the design guidelines, in accordance with Section 8.3.3.A: Review
Criteria for Deviations to the Architectural Design Guidelines for New Development to facilitate
solar energy devices, etc.
For properties that are east of Red Sandstone Creek, in West Lionshead, higher densities and building
heights may be appropriate, particularly to encourage the development of employee housing. However,
any development must meet the overall character and visual intent of this master plan and be compatible
with the adjacent existing development of the Marr+ett Ritz - Carlton Residences and the Vail Spa.

5.21.13 Green Building
The Town has adopted an Environmental Strategic Plan that outlines goals, objectives and
policies to promote green building. Ever Vail shall incorporate green building principles and
techniques. Ever Vail should be designed, constructed and operated to achieve a LEED ND
certification or similar certification program. To accomplish green building, it may be necessary
to provide flexibility from Chapter 8: Architectural Design Guidelines. For example, flat roof
areas may be incorporated more than typically permitted to allow space for solar energy devices.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: January 24, 2011
SUBJECT: A request for a review of a flood plain modification permit, pursuant to
Section 12- 21 -11, Flood Hazard Zones, Vail Town Code, to allow for the
modification of the flood plain associated with Red Sandstone Creek,
generally located at 862, 923, 934, 953, 1000 and 1031 South Frontage
Road West, and the South Frontage Road West right -of -way/ Lot 54,
Glen Lyon Subdivision and Unplatted parcels (a complete legal
description is available for inspection at the Town of Vail Community
Development Department), and setting forth details in regard thereto.
(PEC11 -0003)
Applicant: Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group
Planner: Warren Campbell
SUMMARY
The applicant, Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group, is
requesting approval of a floodplain modification, pursuant to Section 12- 21 -11,
Flood Hazard Zones, Vail Town Code, to allow for the modification of a portion of
the flood plain associated with Red Sandstone Creek, generally located at 862,
923, 934, 953, 1000 and 1031 South Frontage Road West, and setting forth
details in regard thereto.
Based upon Staff's review of the criteria in Section VI of this memorandum and
the evidence and testimony presented, the Community Development Department
recommends that the Planning and Environmental Commission approves, with
conditions, the requested floodplain modification, subject to the findings noted in
Section VII of this memorandum.
II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
The applicant, Ever Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group, is
requesting approval of a floodplain modification, pursuant to Section 12- 21 -11,
Flood Hazard Zones, Vail Town Code, to allow for the modification of a portion of
the flood plain associated with Red Sandstone Creek. The portion of the
floodplain to be modified is located directly beneath and south of the
improvements to be made in association with the new bridge to span the creek in
conjunction with the relocated frontage road. This floodplain modification is not
for the entirety of Red Sandstone Creek from the new bridge to the confluence
with Gore Creek. This partial floodplain modification is requested at this time to
allow for the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) review process to
proceed and, if approved, will allow this first phase of Ever Vail to begin as soon
as desired.
A floodplain modification for the remainder of Red Sandstone Creek will occur at
a subsequent time when the extent of the improvements to be made are known.
Improvements which may affect the floodplain could include the abutments of the
new pedestrian bridge connecting the east and west sides of the project,
walkways and benches along the creek, stream bank fortifications to protect from
erosion, landscaping additions, etc.
The proposed floodplain modification results just south of the proposed outfall of
Red Sandstone Creek where it emerges from under the new bridge. Today the
outfall of Red Sandstone Creek located just south of the 1 -70 east bound lanes
flows in numerous channels measuring approximately 90 feet in width. This area
is located directly beneath the new bridge which will have a clear span of 42 feet.
The proposed bridge improvements will channelize the creek under the bridge
and direct it to an armored outfall and result in a reduction in the width of the flow
to approximately 30 to 40 feet in width. The resulting change to the stream
channel and its floodplain occurs for a distance of approximately 185 feet from
the location of the existing outfall on the south side of 1 -70, where it then meets
grade with the existing channel.
The applicant's request (Attachment A), which includes the floodplain analysis
performed by AM EC.
III. BACKGROUND
On February 6, 2007, the Vail Town Council adopted Resolution No. 4, Series of
2007, which implemented amendments changes to the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan regarding West Lionshead, including the area now
called Ever Vail. Within these amendments, greater detail was included with
regard to the concept of relocating a portion of South Frontage Road West.
On January 26, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission held a work
session at which a revised Frontage Road option was presented to both Staff
and the Commission which had not been previously shown. The general
consensus was that the Frontage Road was moving in the direction of
addressing the concerns of the Commission.
On February 17, 2009, the Town Council directed Staff and the applicant to
proceed with the design of the South Frontage Road which contained certain
improvements within a 20 -foot Town of Vail right -of -way.
On February 18, 2009, the Design Review Board conceptually reviewed the
proposed South Frontage Road and found the concepts presented for the
proposed retaining wall and landscaping associated with the relocated South
Frontage Road to be aesthetically acceptable with further review at a later date.
On March 8, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission tabled this
application due to concerns expressed by the applicant regarding Staff's
recommendation questioning the future ability to shore under what was being
proposed as a 20 -foot Town of Vail right -of -way.
2
On March 22, 2009, the Planning and Environmental Commission approved a
partial preliminary plan which established the width of the CDOT right -of -way
containing the relocated South Frontage Road, the location of the 20 -foot right -
of -way, and the location of a 3 -foot signage, lighting, and sidewalk easement.
The Planning and Environmental Commission also approved the design and
configuration of the relocated South Frontage Road. This partial preliminary plan
was endorsed by the Town Council on April 21, 2009, for submittal to CDOT for
review.

B. Basis For Establishing The Areas Of Special Flood Hazard: The areas of
special flood hazard identified by the federal emergency management agency in
a scientific and engineering report entitled, "The Flood Insurance Study For
Eagle County, Colorado, And Incorporated Areas" dated December 4, 2007, with
accompanying flood insurance rate maps and flood boundary- floodway maps
(FIRM and FBFM) and any revisions thereto are hereby adopted by reference
and declared to be a part of this chapter.
C. Designation Of The Floodplain Administrator: The town engineer or designee
is hereby appointed the floodplain administrator to administer and implement the
provisions of this chapter and other appropriate sections of 44 CFR (national
flood insurance program regulations) pertaining to floodplain management.
D. Duties And Responsibilities Of The Floodplain Administrator: Duties and
responsibilities of the floodplain administrator shall include, but not be limited to,
the following:
1. Maintain and hold open for public inspection all records pertaining to
the provisions of this chapter.
2. Review all permit applications to ensure that the requirements of this
chapter have been satisfied and that the proposed improvement will be
reasonably safe from flooding.
3. Review, approve or deny floodplain use and modification permits to
determine whether proposed improvements meet the provisions of this
chapter.
4. Review evidence prior to the issuance of a floodplain use permit that all
necessary permits have been obtained from those federal, state, or local
government agencies from which prior approval is required. Conditional
floodplain use permits may be issued contingent upon receipt of the
above mentioned agency permits.
5. Review and verify that no new habitable structure is constructed within
the flood hazard zone.
6. Review and verify that a licensed professional engineer or professional
land surveyor certified the location of the 100 -year floodplain on all
development applications that are adjacent to, or partially located within
the 100 -year floodplain, that are proposing improvements that may affect
the floodplain.
7. Where interpretation is needed as to the exact location of the
boundaries of the areas of special flood hazards (for example, where
there appears to be a conflict between a mapped boundary and actual
field conditions) the floodplain administrator shall make the necessary
interpretation.
8. Notify, in riverine situations, adjacent communities and the Colorado
division of emergency management, prior to any alteration or relocation of
a watercourse, and submit evidence of such notification to the federal
emergency management agency.
9. Assure that the flood carrying capacity within any altered or relocated
portion of any watercourse is maintained.
10. When base flood elevation data have not been provided in
accordance with subsection 8 of this section, the floodplain administrator
shall obtain, review and reasonably utilize any base flood elevation data
and floodway data available from federal, state or other source, in order
to administer the provisions of subsection F of this section.
11. When a regulatory floodway has not been designated, the floodplain
administrator must require that no new construction, substantial
improvements, or other development (including fill) shall be permitted
within zones A 1 -30 and AE on the community's FIRM, unless it is
demonstrated that the cumulative effect of the proposed development,
when combined with all other existing and anticipated development, will
not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one
foot (1) at any point within the community.
12. Under the provisions of 44 CFR chapter 1, section 65.12, of the
national flood insurance program regulations, a community may approve
certain development in zones Al -30, AE, AH, on the community's FIRM
which increases the water surface elevation of the base flood by more
than one foot (1'), provided that the community first applies for a
conditional FIRM revision through FEMA (conditional letter of map
revision).
2.Floodplain Modification Permit:
5. Expiration Of Permit: A floodplain permit shall expire two (2) years after
its date of issuance if the permittee has not started construction under the
permit.
VI. CRITERIA AND FINDINGS
All floodplain modification permits shall be reviewed and approved by the
floodplain administrator and the Planning and Environmental Commission. The
following factors shall be used to make a determination in issuance of floodplain
permits:
(1) The effects upon the efficiency or capacity of the floodway;
Red Sandstone Creek is designated as Zone AE (area of special flood hazard
with determined surface water elevations), but is not shown in Table 2, Floodway
Data, of the Flood Insurance Study. However, for purposes of analysis, the
floodplain shown in the Flood Insurance Rate Map and Base Flood Elevations
are the most accurate representation of the Floodway.
31
The effects upon the efficiency and capacity of the floodplain and /or floodway are
negligible. The 100 -year flow will flow effectively thru the proposed floodplain
floodplain modifications as described in the "South Frontage Road Bridge at
Sandstone Creek Floodplain Analysis" prepared by AMEC Earth &
Environmental.
(2) The effects upon persons and personal property upstream, downstream
and in the immediate vicinity;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, there will be no adverse effects upon
persons and personal property upstream, downstream and in the immediate
vicinity. The plan depicts the modified floodplain matching the existing floodplain
extents approximately 185 feet downstream from the new bridge improvements.
(3) The effects upon the 100 -year flood profile and channel stability;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, the 100 -year floodprofile modified by this
project will generally decrease where contained under the new bridge structure
and its outfall, then slightly increase just downstream of the new bridge structure
where the stream bottom elevation will be raised, and then match the existing
profile elevations prior to entering the existing twin box culverts for the South
Frontage Road. In all cases, the water surface elevation will be contained within
the banks on the creek.
(4) The effects upon any tributaries to the main stream, drainage ditches
and any other drainage facilities or systems;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, there will be no effects on any tributaries to
the main stream, drainage ditches and any other drainage facilities or systems.
(5) The danger to life and property due to flooding or erosion damage;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, there will be no increase in danger to life
or property due to flooding or erosion damage. The plan includes the addition of
varying sized rocks along the stream channel to armor the banks against erosion.
(6) The susceptibility of the proposed improvement and its contents to
flood damage and the effect of such damage on the individual owner;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, the proposed improvements will not be any
more susceptible to flood damage than other typical bridge structure.
(7) The danger that materials may be swept onto other lands to the injury of
others;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, there will be no increase to the danger that
materials may be swept onto other lands to the injury of others.
7
(8) The compatibility of the proposed use with existing and anticipated
development;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes,
(9) The safety of access to the property in times of flood for ordinary and
emergency vehicles;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, access by emergency vehicles will not be
negatively impacted by this improvement.
(10) The costs of providing governmental services during and after flood
conditions including maintenance and repair of streets and bridges, and
public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical and water
systems;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, the costs of providing governmental
services will remain constant.
(11) The expected heights, velocity, duration, rate of rise and sediment
transport of the floodwaters and the effects of wave action, if applicable,
expected at the site;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, the proposed improvement will have some
effect on the height and velocity of the floodwaters, being generally lower
beneath the bridge and its outfall, higher just downstream of the outfall and
matching existing prior to the twin box culverts at the South Frontage Road.
Each having negligible negative effects to the site, upstream and downstream of
the site, and on the duration, rate of rise and sediment transport of the
floodwaters.
(12) The effect the proposed changes will have any adverse environmental
effect on the watercourse including, without limitation, erosion of stream
banks and stream side trees and vegetation and wildlife habitat;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, the proposed improvements will have
some environmental effect on the creek. However, due to the existing degraded
state of the creek, surrounding banks, wetlands, and vegetation, there will be
minimal negative impact. The modification of the creek and proposed plan can
be mitigated by reinstating fish habitat, mitigating wetland loss, preserving
specimen trees, and protecting the proposed creek banks.
(13) The necessity to the facility of a waterfront location, where applicable;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, this modification is necessary and
appropriate for the relocation of the South Frontage Road.
(14) The availability of alternative locations, not subject to flooding or
erosion damage, for the proposed use;
Based upon the proposed plan and engineering analysis prepared by AMEC
Earth & Environmental, staff believes, this modification is necessary and
appropriate for the relocation of the South Frontage Road.
(15) The relationship of the proposed use to the comprehensive plan for
that area.
The Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan contemplates the relocation of the
South Frontage Road and the crossing of Red Sandstone Creek. The proposed
complete realignment of the South Frontage Road will have less impact to the
creek than the partial realignment resulting in an angled bridge crossing across
the creek.

adjacent and parallel to the eastbound lanes of 1 -70. This realignment will require the construction of a bridge
across Red Sandstone Creek directly south of the 1 -70 right -of -way. As a result, a Town of Vail Floodplain
Modification Permit is required for the work that is needed to complete the road relocation.
The existing South Frontage Road crosses Red Sandstone Creek approximately 350 feet south of the proposed
location for the new crossing as shown in Figure 1 (USGS Quadrangle: Vail West, Co, Sections 6 and 7 of
Township 5S, Range 80W). The project area is shown in Figure 1.

A floodplain modification is defined by the Vail Town Code as follows:
A floodplain modification permit is a permit to allow construction of improvements and /or
modifications to the adopted floodplain for all other uses, improvements, or modifications to or within
the floodplain that do not fall within the guidelines of the floodplain use permit. However, no habitable
structures or improvements shall be allowed to be constructed within the floodplain (12- 21- 11E.2.a.).

IV. Floodplain Modification Review Criteria
Chapter 21, Hazard Regulations, Vail Town Code provides the requirements and review criteria for a flood plain
modification permit. The purpose of the flood hazard regulations is as follows:
To promote public health, safety and general welfare and to minimize public and private losses due to flood
conditions in specific areas by provisions designed to:
1. Protect human life and health;
2. Minimize expenditure of public money for costly flood control projects;
3. Minimize the need for rescue and relief efforts associated with flooding and generally undertaken at
the expense of the general public,
4. Minimize prolonged business interruptions,
5. Minimize damage to public facilities and utilities such as water and gas mains, electric, telephone
and sewer lines, streets and bridges located in floodplains,
6. Help maintain a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and development of flood prone
areas in such a manner as to minimize future flood blight areas,
7. Ensure that potential buyers are notified that property is in a flood area,
8. Ensure that those who occupy the floodplain assume the responsibility for their actions,
9. Protect the natural areas required to convey flood flows and retain flow characteristics, and
10. Obtain and maintain the benefits to the community of participating in the national flood insurance
program.
All floodplain modification permits are reviewed by the Floodplain administrator and the Planning and
Environmental Commission subject to the following criteria:
A. The effects upon the efficiency or capacity of the floodway.
Our Analysis:
There is no designated floodway for Red Sandstone Creek. The impacts to the floodplain boundary
were evaluated using HEC -RAS and are discussed in the attached engineering hydraulic analysis.
B. The effects upon persons and personal property upstream, downstream and in the immediate
vicinity.
Our Analysis:
There will be no adverse effect upon persons or personal property upstream, downstream or in the
immediate vicinity. All new construction will be outside of the newly proposed floodplain. The water
surface elevations or velocities do not increase downstream or upstream of the project area and
therefore will not adversely impact persons or properties outside of the project area.
C. The effects upon the 100 -year flood profile and channel stability.
Our Analysis:
The impacts to the floodplain boundary were evaluated using HEC -RAS. HEC -RAS results show less than
a foot increase in water surface elevation profiles downstream of the project area. The floodplain
decreases in width downstream of the new South Frontage Road Bridge, and shortly downstream
returns to its existing configuration. The constriction of the floodplain is due to the channelization of
flow through the arched culvert.
FHWA design specifications were used to create the design details to protect the bridge and prevent
scour of the channel during high flow events. A riprap energy dissipation basin has been designed to
force a hydraulic jump in order to dissipate energy from flow out of the 1 -70 CMP. The channel bed will
Ever Vail Flood Plain Modification Permit
be lined with grouted riprap with a median diameter of 12 inches. A drop structure and scour pool will
be placed just downstream of the bridge to limit the downstream impact and limit further impacts to
Red Sandstone Creek. The area to the west of the creek, just downstream of the bridge, will be graded
to create a gradual slope from the southern edge of the retaining wall down to the creek. The area to
the east has a steep bank and will not be modified.
The attached engineering hydraulic analysis describes the impacts to the floodplain in depth and
includes design drawings with channel design details.
D. The effects upon any tributaries to the main stream, drainage ditches and any other drainage
facilities or systems.
Our Analysis:
This design will not impact any tributaries to the main stream, drainage ditches or any other drainage
facilities. A storm drain will collect water from the east side of the new South Frontage Road and
discharge to Red Sandstone Creek just downstream of the new bridge. Storm water will go through a
stormwater treatment system (Vortechs Model 16000) before discharging to Red Sandstone Creek. The
calculated discharge rate during a 100 -yr flow event is 24 cfs.
E. The danger to life and property due to flooding or erosion damage;
Our Analysis:
There will be no increase in the danger to life or property due to flooding or erosion damage associated
with the proposed project. There are no structures within the proposed floodplain. There should be
little or no erosion around the bridge since the channel will be armored to prevent scour during the
500 -yr flood event. The downstream channel will be armored with loose river cobble with a median
diameter of 6 inches, which is the estimated median diameter of the existing river cobble in this reach.
F. The susceptibility of the proposed improvement and its contents to flood damage and the effect of
such damage on the individual owner;
Our Analysis:
The channel below the bridge will be armored to protect the foundation from scour during a 500 -yr
flow event. The bridge footers will be protected from downstream erosion by a concrete cutoff wall
that is located at the downstream end of the bridge. Design drawings are included as an exhibit to the
attached engineering hydraulic analysis
G. The danger that materials may be swept onto other lands to the injury of others;
Our Analysis:
The 1 -70 CMP restricts much of the debris from the headwaters. There is some debris at the site that
will be removed, but, for the most part, the amount of debris will remain the same. In addition, there
are no other landowners along Red Sandstone Creek. Therefore the probability of a downstream
landowner being impacted by debris along Red Sandstone Creek is unlikely.
H. The compatibility of the proposed use with existing and anticipated development;
Our Analysis:
The land adjacent to Red Sandstone Creek Floodplain is currently zoned
Arterial Business District to the west and Lionshead Mixed Use — 2 to the east of the creek. The
proposed zoning for the entire site is Lionshead Mixed Use — 2. The relocation of the South Frontage
Road consolidates the impacts to the creek (both existing and proposed) to one area, allowing for the
remainder of the creek (downstream to Gore Creek) to be improved and restored, and to create a
community amenity. A complete analysis of the anticipated development of Ever Vail is included in this
submittal package.
Ever Vail Flood Plain Modification Permit 8
1. The safety of access to the property in times of flood for ordinary and emergency vehicles;
Our Analysis:
None of these bridges will be flooded. Emergency Vehicles can access the east side of property utilizing
the South Frontage Road and Forest Road. Emergency Vehicles can access the west side of property
utilizing the South Frontage Road.
J. The costs of providing governmental services during and after flood conditions including maintenance
and repair of streets and bridges, and public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical and
water systems;
Our Analysis:
These costs will remain the same. There are no new utilities located within the existing or proposed
floodplain boundary. All new utilities will be located above the floodplain and will be accessed via the
new South Frontage Road Bridge.
K. The expected heights, velocity, duration, rate of rise and sediment transport of the floodwaters and
the effects of wave action, if applicable, expected at the site;
Our Analysis:
The impacts to the floodplain boundary were evaluated using HEC -RAS. HEC -RAS results show less than
a foot increase in water surface elevation profiles downstream of the project area. The floodplain
boundary decreases in width a short distance downstream of the new South Frontage Road Bridge and
shortly downstream returns to its existing configuration. The attached Engineering Hydraulic Analysis
describes the impacts to the floodplain in depth.
L. The effect the proposed changes will have any adverse environmental effect on the watercourse
including, without limitation, erosion of stream banks and stream side trees and vegetation and
wildlife habitat;
Our Analysis:
The realignment of Red Sandstone Creek to accommodate the new South Frontage Road Bridge will
have a small environmental effect on the watercourse under the new bridge. The Red Sandstone Creek
stream ecosystem in the vicinity of the Site has been diminished due to channelized stream conditions
and steep banks caused by fill material from neighboring parcels and the 1 -70 CMP. The stream bottom
consists of boulders and cobbles and provides limited habitat for several species of fish. According to
the CDOW, the following species of fish could be found in Red Sandstone Creek below the 1 -70 culvert:
brown trout, rainbow trout, brook trout, cutthroat trout, and sculpin (Andree, pers. comm.). However,
resting and spawning areas for fish are extremely limited in this section of Red Sandstone Creek,
especially during spring runoff and critical low flow periods in the late summer, fall, and winter.
There are wetlands adjacent to Red Sandstone Creek; however, infringement from development has
degraded riparian habitat, which is limited to a narrow band along the stream banks. All wetland
impacts will be mitigated as required by the Army Corps of Engineers. A wetland mitigation plan and a
404 Permitting will be completed in 2011.
The proposed floodplain will not cause an increase in erosion of stream banks. Many of the trees in the
vicinity will be preserved. Some trees have been designated for removal due to their deteriorating
health, and one tree will be removed to accommodate the new channel alignment. The vegetation that
is impacted during construction will be revegetated as defined in the Landscaping plans created by
Landworks Design.
Ever Vail Flood Plain Modification Permit 9
M. The necessity to the facility of a waterfront location, where applicable;
Our Analysis:
A variety of alternatives were evaluated to select an optimal Creek alignment and set of structures that
would minimize floodplain impacts downstream of the proposed South Frontage Road Bridge crossing
Red Sandstone Creek.
In order to span the existing floodplain, a 120' spanned bridge would be required to traverse the
floodplain. This alternative was not chosen due to the associated cost and aesthetic considerations.
Various bridge spans were evaluated to determine the most appropriate size and style available that
will appropriately convey and manage flow through the new structure. A single span bridge with 42-
foot clear opening was selected as the most appropriate, cost effective and aesthetic alternative.
The span of the proposed bridge was developed using HEC -RAS to model various stream geometries
and bridge span options to identify a bridge span length that would not significantly impact water
surface elevations of the Creek downstream. Once this span length was determined the remaining
design characteristics were determined through an iterative process using Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) standards and HEC RAS modeling. The primary design parameters were based
on the following objectives: maintain channel stability by armoring the new channel under the bridge
to prevent scour during a 500 -yr flood event, include channel geometry that is similar to the existing
stream geometry, and provide sufficient channel conveyance capacity to minimize changes to the
existing 100 -year water surface elevation.
N. The availability of alternative locations, not subject to flooding or erosion damage, for the proposed
use;
Our Analysis:
There is no alternative location because of the necessity to cross Red Sandstone Creek.
O. The relationship of the proposed use to the comprehensive plan for that area.
Our Analysis:
The relocated South Frontage Road is identified as a possibility in the Lionshead Redevelopment Master
Plan for the West Lionshead area. The existing alignment includes a small radius curve in the road,
creating conditions that are unsafe in that area. The Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan
contemplated a South Frontage Road alignment which parallels 1 -70, but returns to the original location
at Red Sandstone Creek. This alignment was not acceptable to CDOT, as it maintains an unsafe bend in
the road. CDOT has indicated that the only acceptable alignment parallels 1 -70 for the entire distance
of the West Lionshead area, joining back up to the existing alignment just west of the existing Glen
Lyon Office Building. In addition, the alignment contemplated by the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan would have required significant disturbance to Red Sandstone Creek, because the
proposed bridge would have run parallel to the creek for a distance. In conclusion, the alignment of the
South Frontage Road and the floodplain modification required are in compliance with the Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan and associated Transportation Master Plans for the traffic network in the
Town of Vail.
The following findings shall be made before granting of a floodplain permit:
(1) That the proposed use or modification adequately addresses the findings in subsection E3a of this
section, as determined by the floodplain administrator, unless the applicant can demonstrate that
one or more of the standards is not applicable, or that a practical solution consistent with the public
interest has been achieved;
Ever Vail Flood Plain Modification Permit 10
(2) That the proposed use or modification is consistent with the adopted goals, objectives and policies
outlined in the Vail comprehensive plan and compatible with the development objectives of the town;
and
(3) That the proposed use or modification is compatible with and suitable to adjacent uses and
appropriate for the surrounding areas; and
(4) That the proposed use or modification promotes the health, safety, morals, and general welfare of
the town and promotes the coordinated and harmonious development of the town in a manner that
conserves and enhances its natural environment and its established character as a resort and
residential community of the highest quality.

South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek
1.0 Introduction
Vail Resorts Development Company, in conjunction with the Town of Vail is planning on
moving the 1 -70 South Frontage Road in West Lionshead to the north, immediately
adjacent and parallel to the eastbound lanes of 1 -70. This realignment will require the
construction of a bridge across Red Sandstone Creek, directly south of the 1 -70 right -of-
way. The purpose of this report is to address and evaluate the hydraulic impacts
associated with moving the South Frontage Road.
The proposed project for the new South Frontage Road Bridge will require realignment
and reconstruction of the Creek channel from the 1 -70 CMP discharge location to a
location approximately 185 feet downstream. The proposed bridge will be constructed
using a Con /Span arch with a clear span of 42 -feet. The Con /Span arch is the structural
component of the bridge that will span the creek. The bridge will be 99.35 feet wide.
The span of the proposed bridge was developed using HEC -RAS to model various
stream geometries and bridge span options to identify a bridge span length that would
not significantly impact water surface elevations or velocities of the Creek downstream of
the proposed bridge. Once this span length was determined the remaining design
characteristics were determined through an iterative process using Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) standards and HEC -RAS modeling. The primary design
parameters were based on the following objectives: maintain channel stability by
armoring the new channel under the bridge to prevent scour during a 500 -yr flood event,
include channel geometry that is similar to the existing stream geometry, and provide
sufficient channel conveyance capacity to minimize changes to the existing 100 -year
water surface elevations downstream.
The project area discussed in this report starts at the discharge location for the existing
1 -70 CMP and ends 185 -ft downstream, where the new channel meets grade with the
existing channel morphology.
2.0 Floodplain Engineering Analysis
The intent of the engineering analysis is to review the existing Flood Insurance Study
(FIS) floodplain boundary, define a new effective Base Flood Elevation (BFE) using
more recent topographic data, and define a new BFE for the proposed bridge design.
The HEC -RAS files used to model the existing floodplain were acquired from FEMA and
modified to represent more recent and accurate survey data. The original FEMA HEC -
RAS model will be referred to as the FIS HEC -RAS model. The model used to model the
new effective BFE will be referred to as the effective HEC -RAS model.
The existing Flood Insurance study (08037CV000A) for Red Sandstone Creek was
adopted by FEMA on December 4, 2007. The flood hazard area is depicted on Eagle
County, Colorado FIRM Panel 0837C046D as shown in Figure 2 (and included in
Attachment A). The existing floodplain zone is defined as Zone AE floodplain. The
existing FEMA FIRM represents modeling of Red Sandstone Creek from the confluence
with Gore Creek to approximately 2,900 feet upstream, just past Potato Patch Drive.

2.1 Evaluation of the Existing Floodplain Boundary and development of
a New Effective HEC -RAS Model
The cross section geometry modeled in FIS HEC -RAS model was examined for
accuracy and compared to more recent survey data to verify the precision of the
geometry data in the vicinity of the project. Upon comparing the FIS cross sections to
more recent topographic data, discrepancies were revealed.
Because of the numerous discrepancies between the FIS HEC -RAS geometric data and
existing topographic data, Vail Resorts and Development Company (VRDC) contracted
Peak Land Consultants to resurvey the cross sections at the same locations along Red
Sandstone Creek. Cross sections 406.5, 406, 405.5, 405.3, 405, 404, 403, 402.5, 402,
and to 401.5 were surveyed on October 7, 2008. Three new cross sections were also
surveyed at this time. This was done to provide more detail for the new effective
floodplain boundary analysis. Two of the new cross sections are located between cross

2.1 Evaluation of the Existing Floodplain Boundary and development of
a New Effective HEC -RAS Model
The cross section geometry modeled in FIS HEC -RAS model was examined for
accuracy and compared to more recent survey data to verify the precision of the
geometry data in the vicinity of the project. Upon comparing the FIS cross sections to
more recent topographic data, discrepancies were revealed.
Because of the numerous discrepancies between the FIS HEC -RAS geometric data and
existing topographic data, Vail Resorts and Development Company (VRDC) contracted
Peak Land Consultants to resurvey the cross sections at the same locations along Red
Sandstone Creek. Cross sections 406.5, 406, 405.5, 405.3, 405, 404, 403, 402.5, 402,
and to 401.5 were surveyed on October 7, 2008. Three new cross sections were also
surveyed at this time. This was done to provide more detail for the new effective
floodplain boundary analysis. Two of the new cross sections are located between cross
AMEC Earth & Environmental
Floodplain Modification Permit — Engineering Floodplain Analysis
South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek
sections 404 and 405. These new cross section identification numbers are 404.5 and
404.25. The third cross section is located just downstream of cross section 405.5,
located just downstream of the 1 -70 CMP discharge. This location was chosen because
the cross section ID 405.5 intersects the culvert wing walls, and thus inaccurately
represents the stream geometry downstream of the 1 -70 CMP discharge. The cross
section locations are shown in plan view in Exhibit A, and a hard copy of the design
drawings are located in Attachment A.
2.1.1 Mannings n- Values
Manning's n- values for the main channel and overbank portions of Red Sandstone
Creek were not changed for the new effective model. The Manning's n- values used are
0.04 and 0.05 for the main channel and the overbank areas, respectively. This is
congruent with field observations and aerial photographs. Red Sandstone creek is
generally narrow and the streambed consists of cobbles and small boulders and the
floodplain is moderately vegetated.
2.1.2 Hydrology
The hydrology used in the existing FIS model was adopted and used in the new effective
model.
2.1.3 Boundary Conditions — Flow Regime
Boundary conditions were changed for the new effective baseline model. The existing
FEMA model used a downstream boundary condition of 0.04 feet /feet. The model was
run using the sub - critical flow regime. The downstream boundary condition for the new
effective model was set at normal depth, based on the average channel slope of 0.05
feet/feet.
2.1.4 Culvert and Bridge Data
Entrance and exit loss coefficients were not changed at stream cross sections for the
new effective baseline model. Entrance and loss coefficients are 0.1 and 0.3 at stream
cross sections. Entrance and loss coefficients at the culverts are 0.5 and 1.0,
respectively. The Entrance and loss coefficients at the existing South Frontage Road
(Section ID's 402.5 and 402) have been changed to 0.3 and 0.5, respectively.
2.1.5 Cross Sectional Geometry
The new cross sectional data from the topographic survey was entered into the new
effective HEC -RAS model. The most notable changes to the geometry data are listed
below.
1. Sections 406.5 and 406 have updated horizontal geometry to show flow in the
horizontal plane, rather than rising above 1 -70. The FIS HEC -RAS model showed
flow overtopping 1 -70.
2. The 1 -70 CMP invert elevation on the north side of 1 -70 has been changed to
8120.3 feet. The FIS CMP invert elevation value was 8124.3 feet.
3. The CMP invert elevation on the south side of 1 -70 was changed to 8107.90 feet.
The FIS CMP invert elevation measurement was 8105.00 feet.
4. Cross section 405.3 was added to represent the actual stream geometry
downstream of the 1 -70 CMP. The new cross section is located 5 feet
AMEC Earth & Environmental
Floodplain Modification Permit - Engineering Floodplain Analysis
South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek
downstream of cross section ID 405.5 This new location was added because the
existing section (ID 405.5) shows the wing walls of the CMP, and misrepresents
the general existing channel geometry in that reach.
5. Cross sections 404.5 and 405.25 were added to provide more floodplain
elevation data downstream of the new location for the South Frontage Road
Bridge.
6. The CMP diameter has been changed to 7 ft. The culvert diameter in the FIS
HEC -RAS model was 6 ft.
2.2 New Effective HEC -RAS Modeling Results Summary
The new effective HEC -RAS model was run using geometry data created from the most
recent survey. Model results in tabular format for the new effective model are presented
in Exhibit B. Table 1 provides a summary table to compare the FIS and new effective
water surface elevations and velocities during a 100 -yr event.

AMEC Earth & Environmental
Floodplain Modification Permit — Engineering Floodplain Analysis
South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek
The water surface elevations and velocities changed at various cross section locations.
The most notable changes are:
1. The water surface elevations at section ID's 406 and 406.5 (north of 1 -70)
decrease in elevation by approximately 4 feet. This is most likely due to the
increased representation width of the floodplain at the cross sections. The
existing FIS model truncated the sections and therefore there was no
representation of flow in the horizontal plane
2. Section ID 405.5 shows a higher water surface elevation in the new effective
model. This is most likely a result of the FIS model not representing the wing
walls, while the new effective geometry represents the wing walls, and the
immediate downstream stream morphology.
3. The water surface elevation at section ID 405 is lower in the new effective model.
This is mostly likely a result of more detailed geometry that shows a more incised
channel.
2.3 Development of a HEC -RAS model for the Proposed Conditions
The proposed bridge will be constructed using a Con /Span arch with a clear span of 42-
feet. The Con /Span arch is the structural component of the bridge that will span Red
Sandstone Creek. The bridge will be 99.35 feet wide. The 1 -70 CMP will be shortened
by 10 feet. Each end of the bridge will require a concrete headwall. The upstream
headwall will be located adjacent to the east bound lanes of 1 -70 and will retain the
adjacent slope. In addition, this will provide an opening for the existing 1 -70 CMP to
penetrate the wall. The CMP will extend 1.9 feet beyond the edge of the upstream
headwall to prevent seepage behind the retaining wall. The Con /Span arch will have 10
additional inches of vertical clearance over the 1 -70 CMP.
In order to convey flow through the Con /Span arch, the channel bed for Red Sandstone
Creek is being adjusted to flow through the bridge. FHWA design specifications were
used to create the design details to protect the bridge and prevent scour of the channel
during high flow events. The channel configuration is based on the need to protect the
bridge during high flow events and effectively manage flow during low flow events. A
riprap energy dissipation basin has been designed to prevent scour and dissipate energy
from flow out of the 1 -70 CMP. The channel bed will be lined with grouted riprap with a
median diameter of 18 inches. A drop structure and scour pool will be placed just
downstream of the bridge to minimize the longitudinal grade and limit further
downstream impacts to Red Sandstone Creek. Detail design computations are included
in the CDOT Hydraulic Report.
The area to the west of the creek, just downstream of the bridge, will be graded to create
a gradual slope from the southern edge of the bridge face down to the creek. Note that
the existing South Frontage Road Bridge will not be removed as part of this project. The
area will continue to be accessed via the existing South Frontage Road until the Ever
Vail development is at or near completion. Design drawings for the proposed project are
located in Exhibit C.
AMEC Earth & Environmental
Floodplain Modification Permit — Engineering Floodplain Analysis
South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek
The new effective HEC -RAS model was modified to reflect the new South Frontage
Road Bridge location, the realignment of Red Sandstone Creek, and the associated
downstream grading changes. A project boundary has been defined by identifying the
cross sections where the water surface elevations and velocities have not been
impacted by the proposed changes, i.e. the water surface elevation profiles match
existing. The project boundaries are cross sections 407 and 402. Cross section ID 407 is
located 3 cross sections and 211 feet upstream of the I -70 CMP inlet. Cross section ID
402 is located immediately downstream of the existing frontage road bridge. The water
surface elevations and velocities return to existing values at or before these project
boundary sections.
A new grading plan was created to represent the proposed changes associated with the
new South Frontage Road Bridge. The new grading plan was used to create a 3-
dimensional surface and cross sections using RiverTools, a program extension to Civil
3D. This program creates cross sections in user specified locations and allows the user
to export the geometry into HEC -RAS, as an .sdf file. These cross sections are labeled
in blue in Exhibit A. This data was then combined with the new effective HEC -RAS
model to compute the impacts to the water surface elevations within the proposed
project area.
A summary of the primary design changes incorporated into the proposed HEC -RAS
model and associated geometry are listed below.
1. The downstream end of the 1 -70 CMP has been cut back 10 ft. The culvert will
now discharge directly into the 42 ft Con /Span arch. The new culvert invert
elevation will be 8108.30 feet.
2. All cross - sectional data between the 1 -70 CMP and the southern edge of bridge
have been replaced with new geometry and numbered accordingly. This
geometry represents the new riprap basin and the new stream geometry. Note
that the existing HEC -RAS sections were not always perpendicular to the flow
line. The geometry data used for the proposed conditions model uses cross
sections that are perpendicular to the flow line. For this reason it is difficult to
directly compare before and after water surface elevations based on cross
section ID's and location alone. When a cross section line from the proposed
model was crossing a cross section line from the new effective model it was
given a section ID value 0.01 high or lower. If the proposed cross section
centerline was above the existing section line then the value was higher and vice
versa. For comparison purposes the water surface elevation for the proposed
conditions was interpolated based on the plan view of floodplain boundary. Refer
to Exhibit A for further clarification.
3. The width of the proposed bridge is 99.35 -ft. For modeling purposes the bridge
was shorted to 49 feet long and placed downstream of the 1 -70 CMP stilling
basin. This was done so that the stilling basin could be represented in the
hydraulic model. HEC -RAS will not allow the modeler to enter a bridge and
details for a stilling basin simultaneously. Note the upstream section of the bridge
was modeled by creating stream geometry to represent the walls of the bridge.
4. New cross sections were added downstream of the proposed bridge to represent
the drop structure, scour pool, and grading downstream of the bridge.
AMEC Earth & Environmental
Floodplain Modification Permit — Engineering Floodplain Analysis
South Frontage Road Bridge at Red Sandstone Creek
The hydraulic attributes are the same as those used in the new effective model. The
following assumptions were used:
• The Manning's n value used to model the reach through the bridge is 0.03. The
remaining Manning's n values were consistently 0.04 and 0.05 throughout the
model, as used in the existing HEC RAS model. The grouted riprap will be placed
below the bridge so that it is protruding from the surface in order to provide for
increased roughness.
• Flow regime was modeled as subcritical when modeling the 100 -yr water surface
elevations. Note that the flow becomes supercritical at various points due to the
steep grade and drop structures, but FEMA requires the 100 -yr floodplain
boundary be calculated assuming subcritical flow. A mixed flow regime was
used to determine the depth of scour during a 500 -yr flood event at the proposed
bridge structure.
• The downstream boundary condition is the average channel slope of 0.05
feet/feet.
• Entrance and loss coefficients are 0.1 and 0.3 at stream cross sections. The
Entrance and loss coefficients at the existing South Frontage Road (Section ID's
402.5 and 402) are 0.3 and 0.5. Entrance and loss coefficients for the new bridge
(405.3. and 405.15) are also 0.3 and 0.5. Entrance and loss coefficients at the
culverts are 0.5 and 1.0, respectively.
2.4 Proposed Conditions — HEC -RAS Modeling Results Summary
The proposed HEC -RAS model was run with the new input data to determine the water
surface elevations and velocities along Red Sandstone Creek under the proposed
conditions. The HEC -RAS model results indicate that the impacts to the 100 -yr water
surface elevations are less than a foot outside of the structures. In addition, the
floodplain width decreases in width due to the channelization of Red Sandstone Creek.
Table 2 summarizes the results during a 100 -yr flow event at key design locations. Note
it is important to view this table in conjunction with Exhibit A to see the physical
representation of the impacts to the floodplain boundary.
The complete tabular results from the HEC -RAS model for the proposed conditions are
shown in Exhibit D. HEC -RAS model sections with the 100 -yr water surface elevations
for the proposed geometry are shown in Exhibit E. The FIS floodplain boundary, the
proposed new effective floodplain boundary, and the proposed floodplain boundary are
shown in Exhibit A. Proposed vs. new effective ground and 100 -yr water surface
elevations are shown in Figure 3.

3.0 Conclusions
The floodplain analysis evaluated the existing adopted Flood Insurance Study (FIS)
floodplain boundary and created a new effective baseline model using more recent and
accurate survey data. The new effective baseline model was then used as the baseline
model from which to create a new HEC -RAS model to represent the proposed design.
This model shows a minimal increase in water surface elevation downstream of the
project area. The floodplain narrows just downstream of the new South Frontage Road
Bridge, and shortly downstream returns to its existing configuration. The water surface
elevation profiles for the proposed conditions match the water surface elevation profiles
of the new effective model at cross sections 407 and 402.5.
FEMA requires that a Conditional Letter of Map Revision ( CLOMR) be submitted for
review if the there has been a detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analysis for which the
Base (1- percnet - annual- chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) have been specified. If the
project area is within a floodplain boundary, but not designated as a regulatory floodway,
then any changes that would result in more than a 1.0 -foot increase in the BFE will
require a CLOMR. Red Sandstone Creek has a designated floodplain, but is not in a
regulatory floodway. Although the increases to the BFE's downstream of the proposed
bridge are less than 1.0 foot, the increases to the BFE's within the proposed Con /Span
arch are greater than 1.0 foot. Therefore, a CLOMR will need to be submitted to FEMA

A request for a recommendation to the Vail Town Council, pursuant to Section 12 -3 -7,
Amendment, Vail Town Code, for a prescribed regulations amendment to Section 12 -16 -7, Use
Specific Criteria and Standards, Vail Town Code, to develop criteria to allow for beauty and
barber shops with exterior frontage on a public way, street, walkway, or mall area, and a request
for the review of a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 12 -7H -3, Permitted And
Conditional Uses; First Floor Or Street Level, Vail Town Code, for a beauty and barber shops,
located at 728 West Lionshead Circle /Lot 2, West Day Subdivision, and setting forth details in
regard thereto. (PEC100051, PEC100053)
Applicant: RCR Vail, LLC, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group, LLC
Planner: Warren Campbell
Prescribed Regulations Amendment
ACTION: Recommendation of approval
MOTION: Viele SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 7 -0 -0
Conditional Use Permit
ACTION: Approved with a condition
MOTION: Viele SECOND: Kurz VOTE: 7 -0 -0
CONDITION(S):
This conditional use permit approval is contingent upon the adoption of the prescribed
regulations amendments modifying the conditional use permit use specific criteria for
beauty and barber shops through the adoption of an ordinance by the Vail Town
Council.
Warren Campbell presented an overview of the staff memorandum. He requested that two
separate motions and votes be made for each application.
Commissioner Viele inquired as to the impacts to Lionshead created by the proposed
amendments.
Warren Campbell explained that staff believed the intent of the 1981 regulations adopted for
beauty and barber shops was maintained through the identification of the Lionshead
MEMBERS ABSENT
Page 1
Redevelopment Master Plan exhibit identifying the primary and secondary malls within
Lionshead. He added that the proposed prescribed regulations amendments still resulted in a
beauty and barber shops being a conditional use through out all of the Lionshead Mixed Use 1
and 2 zone districts.
Commissioner Cartin stated for the record that he was employed by Vail Resorts, however he
did not stand to gain financially form this application and was able to remain unbiased.
Dominic Mauriello stated that the applicant agreed with staffs recommendation and had a
presentation if necessary. He made himself available for questions.
Commissioner Rediker stated that he had done some research in the Colorado Revised Statues
regarding the definitions for beauty shops /salons and barber shops. The CRS identifies them as
very distinct land uses. He highlighted that todays beauty shops tend to have significant retail
components with distinguished them from barber shops. He suggested that there should maybe
be two distinct defined land uses verse the combined current definition. Additionally he was
concerned about the referenced map in the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan clearly
identifying the primary and secondary malls. He concluded by stating that he did have questions
regarding the future changes on West Lionshead Circle when /if Ever Vail was constructed and
operational.
Warren Campbell responded that the zone districts in the Town Code identified the land use as
beauty and barber shops in conjunction when listed. Mr. Campbell stated that he understood the
differences between the land uses, however, there has been no instance, to the best of his
knowledge, where a potential business or property owner has tried to debate the existing Code
definition for a beauty and barber shop. Staff believes the definition has served the community
to date, and revising the definition to separate the two or expand upon could easily be done.
Dominic Mauriello reminded the Commission that what was being proposed was an amendment
to allow a business or property owner to to apply for a conditional use permit verse not be
allowed to apply based on the existing provision. The proposed language would still give the
Commission the ability to determine if a specific space was appropriate for a beauty or barber
shop.
Commissioner Kurz suggested that the proposed regulation amendments were appropriate as it
allowed a business or property owner to ask the Commission if a particular location was
appropriate for a beauty and barber shop. He would like to avoid restricting the ability to ask the
question of appropriateness for the land use. He further add, that the current beauty and barber
shop industry and business plan varies so greatly that he never knows what he will find when he
goes to get his hair cut. Some business have no retail and others have clothes, cosmetics, and
other beauty supplies.
Commissioner Schneidman inquired as to how Salon Axis was previously located in the Marriott
which is in the adjacent structure.
Allison Kent, representing the applicant, stated that the salon existed prior to the rezoning of the
Marriott to Lionshead Mixed Use 1, which resulted in it being allowed to continue as a legal non-
conforming use.
Commissioner Rediker suggested that the definition should be broadened and the two land uses
separated since they are different.
Page 2
Commissioner Kurz stated that the traditional main street barber shop is phasing out to new
business models. He reiterated that he wished to see it beauty and barber shop proposal to be
evaluated with regards to its merits through the conditional use process.
Commissioner Viele made motions per the staff recommendations with the addition of a request
for staff to revise the definitions of beauty and barber shops when appropriate in the future.

George Ruther responded that the appeals process would be PEC, Town Council and then Civil
Court.
Commissioner Viele asked what authority Staff has to apply for amendments to the adopted
regulations.
George Ruther clarified that the Town Council, PEC, members of the public or Staff can apply for
regulations amendments.
Commissioner Pratt suggested that mitigation only be required when projects exceed that which
is permitted under the current zoning.
George Ruther responded that studies show that development which comply with zoning still
have impacts to facilities and services that needs to be financially addressed.
Commissioner Kurz voiced concern over the open ended nature of "infrastructure facilities and
services." He suggested listing types of impacts and mitigation requirements. He further inquired
as to who pays for studies to determine impacts.
George Ruther responded that applicants would pay for the studies. He added that the
ordinance is trying to address the economic sustainability of the Town.
Commissioner Viele suggested that this type of ordinance should go to voters, as it seems like a
tax.
George Ruther responded that this is not a tax and does not have to go to voters.
Commissioner Viele stated that the timing for this ordinance is misplaced givent he county's
economic situation and there needs to be regulations on eliminating the negotiations process.
Commissioner Kurz stated his concern about the loss of the negotiation process which to his
knowledge has worked well thus far.
Commissioner Pratt asked if this ordinance would apply to Ever Vail.
George Ruther responded that he did not believe it would apply to any applications that have
already been submitted. Legal counsel would need to answer this question.
Commissioner Pierce suggested there needs to be a distinction between upzoning, SDD
deviations and projects that comply with existing zoning.

Commissioner Pratt stated that allowable zoning should reflect impacts that the Town could
absorb, not require the applicant to pay for.
George Ruther responded that when West Vail was rezoned in the 1970's and 80's, that the
Town would have had to build 5 lane roads and other supporting infrastructure instead of
improving infrastructure as needed over time.
Commissioner Viele stated that the tax base should pay for changes to infrastructure.
Commissioner Pierce stated that the exactions should be more predictable.
