Tom Braun gave a power point presentation covering the recent history of the Ford Park Master
Plan and an update on the process moving forward. He highlighted the outcome of the vote on
the use of the conference center funds as the impetus for proposed amendments to the Master
Plan in 2012.
Commissioner Kurz asked what was the reason the Town Council asked to revisit the Master
Plan a year after its adoption.
Tom Braun spoke to the social plaza for the amphitheater and the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens
causing the Council to rethink the previously adopted Master Plan amendments for 2012.
Commissioner Rediker asked why the concepts being discussed now were not thought of in
2012.
Page 1
Tom Braun spoke to the push to get the amendments adopted to allow construction to begin and
the goals, objectives, and policies were not revisited. The Council identified a need to revisit
those elements at this juncture.
Commissioner Hopkins asked if the Ford Family memorial was still being considered.
Tom Braun stated that yes it was still being considered.
Commissioner Pierce stated that the review should consider properties south of the creek. Is the
playground in the right spot and are their advantages to it being relocated? He asked what
activities would be going on in the Alpine Gardens building.
Tom Braun spoke to the anticipated use of the space.
Commissioner Pierce stated that we should be avoiding redundancy such as restrooms which
may be unnecessary. He spoke to examining the possible relocation of the historic picnic
structure and AIPP shack. An examination of the importance of these structures and the
potential for removal or relocation should be explored for any advantages.
Commissioner Cartin asked if the goals that were presented were in order of importance or were
they all of equal importance. He suggested that maybe there should be some that are of
heightened importance. He suggested splitting the Gore Creek pedestrian path on the west side
of the park into two individual areas as they are distinctly different.
Tom Braun stated that staff had discussed that concept previously and it can be discussed in
future hearings.
Commissioner Pierce stated that the question of whether or not the VRD should be located in the
park or not should be explored. A fresh set of eyes is needed to examine all aspect of the park
both existing and desired. It makes sense to concentrate man made structures closer to the
Frontage Road.
Nicola Ripley, Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, stated that she is looking forward to discussing with
the Commission the programming for the desired structure.
Commissioner Pierce stated that he will be interested in the why and how of any new proposed
building and structure.
Jim Lamont, Vail Homeowners Association, spoke to his belief that the Commission had done its
job previously and the Council was doing theirs when it they called up the Master Plan for
discussion and reexamination. He sated that his perceived weakness of the plan is the lack of
an exhibit addressing transit/vehicular circulation. He asked for the 1974 Plan to be put on the
screen. He spoke to the landscape architect who was engaged to create the plan that has set
the stage for Vail today. There was an emphasis on the landscape and fitting structures into the
natural environment. We need to put value on the effort that went into the 1974 Plan. He spoke
to a need for a round about location to be identified. During the review of Solaris it was
determined that Village Center was an inappropriate location and the frontage of Ford Park was
identified as a possible location to allow for the turning of vehicles on the Frontage Road. He
suggested that a multi -tier parking structure should be explored on the east end of the site in the
vicinity of the current parking area. If designed correctly with structure potentially on top it could
help block highway noise in the amphitheater. There should be language in the Master Plan
including such a discussion. This is a community park for all and where the project went
Page 2
sideways was when there was a perception that an individual group was driving the conversation
and outcomes. He suggested that more specific recommendations may be necessary in the
Master Plan to discuss desired elements in the park. He spoke the incorporation of an art
sculpture walk. He supported Commissioner Pierce's statement regarding the historic
importance, or lack there off, for the picnic pavilion. It exhibits a point in time, but it is not a piece
of historic architecture and provided some history on the structure and the AIPP building. He
spoke to the ultimate need for an art museum in Vail and the struggle over the years to find a
location. What has been missing is a list of evaluation criteria for analysis of each site for the
functions in the park. He concluded by stating that the process should not be pushed and that
there is additional homework to be done. The Commission should use there positions to help
the community to evolve into the future.
Commissioner Bird stated that it would be beneficial to have restrooms in appropriate locations
and a historical background on the "historical structures".
3. A request for the review of a variance from Section 12-6E-8, Density Control, Vail Town Code,
pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, Vail Town Code, to allow for an increase in dwelling units

Re: A report to the Planning and Environmental Commission on the administrator's approval
of an amendment to an existing conditional use permit and its conditions of approval,
pursuant to Section 12-16-10, Amendment Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the
continued use of a miniature golf course and the addition of two (2) bungee trampolines,

Applicant: Vail Resorts Development Company, represented by Jeffrey Babb

Dear Planning and Environmental Commission members and adjacent property owners:
The purpose of this letter is to inform you that the Town of Vail Staff has approved an amendment to
the approved conditional use permit for the Vail Resorts miniature golf course, and the addition of
two (2) bungee trampolines, located at 560 East Lionshead Circle/Lot 2, Vail Lionshead 6t" Filing.
The conditional use permit for the miniature golf course was conditionally approved on April 4, 2010,
with an expiration of October 15, 2013. Staff's approval includes the following conditions:
1. All conditions of approval for the miniature golf course from the 04/14/2010 approval
will remain valid with the exception of Condition #12, expiration date that will be
replaced with the following "Should conditions warrant as a result of observations or
valid objections related to the operation of the miniature gold course/bungee
trampolines, the Planning and Environmental Commission reserves the right revisit
this item for additional review."
2. All new fencing shall match the previously approved and installed four (4) rail split
fence.
3. Measures shall be taken to ensure that no staging of participants or spectator
gathering impedes the operation of the Gore Valley Trail.
The Town of Vail Staff has determined that this amendment to the approved miniature golf course
conditional use permit meets the review criteria prescribed by Section 12-16-10, Amendment
Procedures, Vail Town Code. This administrative approval of a conditional use permit amendment
will be reported to the Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission at its Monday, June
10, 2013 public hearing at 1:00 p.m. in the Vail Town Council Chambers, located at 75 South
Frontage Road West. The Planning and Environmental Commission reserves the right to "call up"
this administrative action for additional review at this hearing. This administrative action may also be
appealed by an adjacent property owner, any aggrieved or adversely affected person, or the Vail
Town Council as outlined in Section 12-3-3, Appeals, Vail Town Code.
Please feel free to contact me should you have further questions. I can be reached by phone at
970-479-2321 or by email at ispence(o)vailgov.com.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Spence
