2. 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 Detailed Plan Recommendations
for the Evergreen Lodge at Vail, located at 250 South Frontage Road West/Lot 2W, Block 1,
Vail Lionshead Filing 2, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC140044)
Applicant: Evergreen Lodge at Vail, represented by Mauriello Planning Group
Planner: George Ruther
Action: Table to September 14, 2015
Motion: Rediker Second: Hansen Vote: 7-0-0
Community Development Director George Ruther made a presentation as per staff
memorandum and gave a brief history of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan.
Today's meeting is intended to be a work session to discuss possible amendments to the
Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan. The amendments being proposed are in response to
changes in conditions as it relates to the Evergreen Lodge and improvements being proposed
by the adjacent property owner.
The original adoption of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan did not include properties
that did not want to be included in the initial study area. In 2004/2005 the Evergreen property
applied to be included in the Master Plan area. The initial 6 primary goals of this plan were
applicable to this particular property, the one piece of the master plan that was not current or
consistent for this property was chapter 5 which is the detailed master plan recommendations.
This is the chapter in the plan where recommended improvements are located if a
redevelopment of a property were to happen.
The Commission is beginning asked to help outline and identify development goals for the
Evergreen Lodge and the community expectations for this amendment.
Commissioner Gillette inquired the community goals as associated with the hospital. Where are
these goals outlined?
Ruther responded that the goals came from other town master plan, land use plan,
transportation master plans, etc. Expectations the town & community have identified for the
Evergreen Lodge to date include preservation of the hotel use, pedestrian conflicts, vehicular
access, middle creek impacts, etc.
Dominic Mauriello, Mauriello Planning Group representing the applicant introduced the owner
representatives Peter Knobel & Sharon Cohn. Dominic then indicated that he would be able to
have additional answers to Commissioner Gillette's question as outlined above. He recognized
that the board membership has changed and he didn't account for that while preparing his
presentation.
Of particular note, this is an application to amend the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan
and that this does not include any development plans at this time. The development plan will be
submitted at a later date and reviewed for compliance with the Master Plan.
Dominic presented an overview of the location of the Evergreen, 128 hotel rooms, 19 private
condos (dwelling units), food & beverage component, underground parking, surface parking,
location of middle creek, pedestrian access from evergreen to meadow drive.
Dominic reviewed the ongoing discussions between the ownership of the Evergreen and Vail
Valley Medical Center regarding a possible land exchange. This has been a very cooperative
effort between the two parties and expects this deal will be finalized in 4 to 5 months. This land
trade will ease some of the private covenants that exist on the hospital property that will allow
for the expansion. This exchange allows for WMC to be able to exchange their front door from
Meadow Drive to South Frontage Road.
Dominic reviewed results of a 2 -day charrette presented by Evergreen and open to the
community. This provided an opportunity for the public to see what the development goals are
for the Evergreen. The proposed design concept includes 128 hotel rooms, new round -abouts,
85+ residential condos, 8-20 employee housing units, food & beverage element, meeting
rooms, lobby & amenities. Specifically noted is that there is a significant increase of residential
condominiums from the current 19. The applicant believes that most of these units will be
available through a rental program.
Amendments requested through this plan include:
• Section 5.19.1. Pedestrian Access - Updated to recognize the need for pedestrian
connection from South Frontage Road to Meadow Drive.
• 5.19.2 South Frontage Road Improvements and Vehicular Access - No vehicular access
from West Meadow Drive. All vehicular access will be from South Frontage Road.
Recognizes a full size roundabout location.
• 5.19.3 Preservation of Existing Accommodation Units - requires replacement of 128 hotel
rooms. However, allows them to be smaller rooms while providing amenities provide living
area, does not require square footage replacement. Recognizes need for smaller rooms.
Recognizes additional 85+ condos and rental management program as significant lodging
component.
• 5.19.4 Impacts on Middle Creek Streamtract — Recognizing the importance of water quality,
need to address with any redevelopment, need for water quality improvements, opportunity
for pedestrian access.
• 5.19.5 Relationship to WMC & Lot 10 - Recognizes coordinated planning, helipad
recognition, pedestrian access, lot 10 opportunities, interim planning measures that still
allow for surface parking, construction staging, etc.
• 5.19.6 Service & Delivery - indicates need for secondary service access to evergreen.
• 5.19.7 Setbacks — May allow for shared space and treating these properties as a single site
to allow for zero set backs with WMC, above & below grade, subject to development
review
• 5.19.8 - Architectural Improvements & Building Heights - recognizes transitional area with
architecture — Dobson, WMC, Library, Vail International; allows for contemporary
expression of alpine architecture, requires building heights to step down to meadow drive.
Commissioner Martin asked the applicant why the need for two pedestrian paths.
Mauriello explained that this is what the master plan states today.
Commissioner Hansen asked if the charrette included the pedestrian path and if any of the
pedestrian access is subterranean or is it all above ground.
Mauriello indicated that the paths were included with the charrette and that all of the pedestrian
access will be above ground.
Commissioner Hansen inquired where is emergency access is located.
Mauriello emergency access will be directly off of South Frontage Road.
Commissioner Pratt asked the board if they had any specific questions for the applicant.
Commissioner Gillette asked about the reference to architecture and if it is contrary to what it is
today.
Mauriello stated that he did not believe so. Other properties within this Master Plan have also
been allowed to modify this.
Commissioner Cleveland asked about the current accommodation units vs. existing units not
meeting hotel standards today yet you are talking about making smaller rooms. What is the
difference between current hotel room and the proposed.
Mauriello mentioned the deteriorating quality of the property. He said the applicant will likely
propose smaller room sizes directed toward millennials, diversifying what we have in Vail, the
lobby experience will improve the guest experience. For example, trading desks adm works
spaces in hotel rooms for maybe a more meaningful area where people can hang out and work
elsewhere in the building. Not to forgo that there are another 85+ units that will be in the rental
pool.
Commissioner Hansen inquired as to the product envisioned. You have sporting teams, people
using the hotel. Is this hotel going to have national branding? What is the price point?
Peter Knobel, developer, envisions lower rates with better quality experience. Accommodating
to sports teams, VVMC, etc. Accommodating that group of people that need a shorter term
stay. Range of higher priced rooms for those that want it through the condominiums. We want
everybody to be able to come to this location and not just one demographic. Researched the
brand and Vail is the brand and will be included in this in the name.
Commissioner Rediker asked how many of the current condos are available through the rental
program.
Mauriello explained that there are currently 19 condos in the Evergreen. Six of them are rented
long-term, and 11-12 of the remaining 13 are available through the rental program.
Commissioner Rediker recognized that there are currently no development plans and this is
conceptual. Square footage will be addressed. What is the approximate square footage of the
current hotel rooms?
Mauriello stated that he believes that the total square footage of the 128 hotel rooms is 52,000.
Director Ruther stated that he will get confirmation of total square footage. Believes the 52,000
is too high.
Commissioner Rediker asked if all hotel rooms are all the same.
Mauriello agreed that the hotel rooms are all the same size.
Commissioner Lockman asked if there is a current relationship between hotel & hospital?
Mauriello stated that people do stay at the Evergreen today that are leaving the hospital.
Similar to other relationships with Sonnenalp & Four Seasons.
Knobel stated that they are in current negotiations with WMC to be able to provide a location
for education/presentation in addition to being able to continue to provide a location for patients
to stay before or after a being at the hospital.
Commissioner Rediker inquired as to how many stories the proposed hotel would be?
Mauriello stated that the hotel will be 4 stories.
Commissioner Martin asked the same question in relation to the condos.
Mauriello stated that they would be 6-7 stories stepping down in height and grade
Commissioner Rediker inquired as to where the amenities would be located. Would they be in
the hotel building or in condo.
Knoble stated that they expect to have 2 pools, 2 restaurants with one located in each building.
The applicant is also envisioning more of a plaza between WMC & the Evergreen.
Director Ruther stated that while these are all great questions and all great input but asked that
the conversation continue by focusing on bigger picture, master planning type issues. As we
continue, a lot of these questions will be answered. The goal today is to understand what the
higher level expectations of the community are when it comes to development objectives for
the site. What are the community impacts, what shared opportunities exist, parking, loading &
delivery, traffic, flow, etc?
Commissioner Pratt opened the floor to public comment.
Tom Braun, representing Vail Valley Medical Center stated that they have been working with
Evergreen on this land exchange. At master plan level, he believes this meets the needs &
goals of the WMC master plan.
Commissioner Martin asked if there is any ongoing dialogue with Vail Resorts.
Tom Braun stated that discussions were ongoing with Vail Resorts.
Jim Lamont, representing Vail Homeowners Association asked what the L-shaped area on the
presentation indicated?
Tom stated that that area is the proposed emergency area in front of the hospital off of South
Frontage Road.
Lamont asked the applicant to explain if you are coming off of the roundabout into the plaza, is
this all at grade? Where does the grade break? Is it along meadow drive?
Mauriello said the entrance is at grade and will terrace down approximately 16 feet.
Director Ruther recommended that the public should direct the questions to the commission
and not directly to the applicant. Doing so ensures that the discussion is properly recorded on
the tapes for the public record.
Commissioner Pratt asked that Jim ask all of his questions and answers will be provided.
Jim asked the following questions: Are we having shared parking or not having shared parking
with the hospital? If it does, it changes the dynamic of the two properties. If there is joint service
& delivery, what happens to the existing service & delivery areas and how do they get to it
when it's located in two distinct areas. The homeowners association does not believe that this
is the ideal location for the helipad and would like to see the town develop the western portion
of property for this helipad and provide a tunnel for crossing. Are there multiple access points
for the property or only one access off of South Frontage Road. It appears that there is only
one point. Is there still access to West Meadow Drive from the hospital site? Alternative
pedestrian access route being proposed going to include snowmelt? The Vail HOA members
support use of efficient snowmelt. Carbon footprint is not as important as public safety. If lot 10
is going to be used, it should have some sort of public amenity. What kind of public amenities
will be provided for with this application? Commented on the small size of the hotel rooms as
well as the height of the condominiums with neighboring properties. Appreciates the move to a
more modernistic design. However this design weds more with the Solaris style of architecture
then the modern style being proposed. Is this presentation going to be available on the Town's
website?
Commissioner Pratt closed public comment.
Commissioner Pratt commented that today's session is on background, we can't get bogged
down in the minutia of the details. We need to be taking a look at the bigger picture, streamtract
impairments, etc. He stated he agrees with comments on the helipad. All of these issues will be
reviewed & addressed when the development plan comes in. Today we are looking at a master
plan in the true sense of a master plan. We will ask the applicant to address your questions at
the next meeting.
Commissioner Cleveland suggested that each item being proposed be addressed one at a time
and not just allow for comments.
Ruther suggested the preference to finding out what the bigger picture issues are so they can
be addressed. Agrees that each amendment item needs to be addressed and reviewed, but the
specifics will be addressed as this application moves forward.
Commissioner Pratt asked the commission to express any specific hot -buttons with this
application.
Commissioner Lockman stated that he is impressed with layout and plan. Likes the pedestrian
access improvements. Concerned about increased number of condos and how this will impact
the rental pool. Concerned with effect to neighbors on the west. Believes that shared parking is
huge, but needs to know what this look likes and it needs to be a well thought out plan. Service
& Delivery how do you share this and who gets access to what?
Commissioner Hansen stated that this is impressive. A couple of things peaked interested and
that is the access to a community meeting room wherever that may be located. An art center
will be developed at some time in the future. Is the heliport safe? It's either safe or it's not and
you hire a consultant to determine the safety. The right team on this and positively impressed so
far.
Commissioner Cleveland believes that this is an idea. Master plans are not ideas. What we are
looking at is an idea. We need to make sure that the master plan meets the needs for which
they are established. Evergreen is going to be redeveloped & it was moved into the LRMP
which allows for greater development rights and sees no issues with more development
opportunities. Lot 10 there may be a solution to some of these problems may lie with Lot 10. It
should be in the mix and be an integral part of this project. Expressed concerns about the
streams. Vail has typically focused on skiing and not our streams. We have the opportunity to
protect Middle Creek and concentrate on this option. WMC hospital plan has been decided and
we shouldn't be debating this with this application. Need to focus on the Evergreen and the
cooperation between the two properties or 3 properties.
Commissioner Rediker stated that he is in agreement with comments previously made by
Commissioner Cleveland and that we should be looking at this as a master plan and keep the
discussion broad and not specific to a development. Look at how it should be developed within
our current guidelines. How can we best protect Middle Creek & enhance this streamtract. Does
not support path next to stream as it may create a negative impact by creating more traffic flow
along. Traffic flow along frontage road is a concern. Concerned with separate loading & delivery
access to the west of roundabout where it may clog traffic. We also need to protect the number
of hotbeds and the proposed amendments headed in the right direction. Concerned about the
modifications to the changing the language of GRFA in the master plan. Eliminating this
language may not meet the goals of what is going on in town.
Commissioner Martin stated that he is excited about the concept, idea, affordable demographic.
Excited for the potential affordable restaurant. Cannot comment on Lot 10, that's a council
decision on what is done with the agreement. Master plan needs to have positive impact on
streamtract and that there should be no path next to stream. Agrees with Commissioner
Cleveland shared services option should be explored further. Concerned increased density and
impact on traffic.
Commissioner Gillette stated he agrees with Commissioner Cleveland and would take if further,
that the master plan we are amending went too far. We should be backing up and relying more
heavily on the original plan that isn't specific to this site. Amending this plan with site specific
constraints, traffic, pedestrian and not worry about square footage to hotel, architectural
features, etc. Then allow for development plan to meet the criteria of this master plan. Too
detailed already. Proposal is fantastic but we need scale this back and deal with more of this
with the development plan. Explore how we can improve traffic around our streams. This is an
asset.
Commissioner Pratt agree with Commissioner Cleveland' s comments. Getting back into the
master plan and not turning it into a development plan. Danger with graphics is bogging down
people with details. Distracted us today with our job today which is amending the master plan.
Loading & delivery combining is a great concept. However, when they are in two distinct
locations, this is going to be difficult to achieve. Setbacks/stepdowns should go both ways both
off of West Meadow Drive as well as South Frontage Road. Believes the project is a good one
and the concept is fine. Pedestrian access improvements North to South are needed, skeptical
to eliminate the path between hospital and Skaal hus. We need to look at a sidewalk along
frontage road. MP for WMC has been submitted & approved there is no application to change
that. We need to focus on the masterplan on the Evergreen modifications. Mr. Lamont has
asked for 2 minutes of rebuttal and will make an exception to grant that.
Lamont asked when you look at the hospital master plan as you call it, it is very detailed. We no
longer do Special Development Districts, we do amendments to master plans. Peter is headed
in the right direction. Should be able to present the same detail in this amendment as was
allowed at WMC.
Commissioner Pratt excused himself for the remainder of the meeting due to a prior
commitment. He departed the meeting at 2:40pm.

Planner: George Ruther
I. SUMMARY
The applicant, Evergreen Lodge at Vail, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group,
is requesting a work session with the Planning and Environmental Commission
(Commission) to discuss proposed amendments to the Lionshead Redevelopment
Master Plan (LRMP). The applicant will seek approval of these amendments when the
land exchange between the Vail Valley Medical Center (VVMC) and the Evergreen
Lodge (EL) is finalized. At this time, it is likely the land exchange will occur as
conversations are ongoing and efforts are being made by all parties to execute a final
agreement. This work session is intended to begin a dialogue with the Commission and
engage the community to identify the desired redevelopment outcomes of the
Evergreen Lodge site should a land exchange occur.
As this public hearing is a work session, staff has not prepared a recommendation for
consideration by the Planning and Environmental Commission. A staff recommendation
will be provided at the time of the final public hearing on this application.
The applicant requests the Commission continues this public hearing to the September
14, 2015 meeting of the Planning and Environmental Commission.
II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
The applicant, Evergreen Lodge at Vail, represented by the Mauriello Planning Group,
is requesting a work session with the Planning and Environmental Commission to
discuss proposed amendments Chapter 5, Detailed Plan Recommendations, subsection
5.19, Evergreen Lodge at Vail, of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan. The four
purposes of the amendments are to:
1. Clearly identify and articulate the desired outcomes of a future redevelopment
of the Evergreen Lodge at Vail property,
2. Remove language from the Master Plan which is no longer relevant or
applicable,
3. Respond to changes in conditions as a result of the land exchange with Vail
Valley Medical Center, and
4. Establish predictability within the review process by providing detailed site
specific recommendations for redevelopment of the Evergreen Lodge at Vail site.
III. PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
The amendments proposed by the applicant are drafted and presented assuming the
proposed land exchange has occurred. Text to be added to the LRMP is shown in bold
italics and text to be deleted is shown in striko+hre- ,nh
5.19 Evergreen Lodge at Vail
The Evergreen Lodge at Vail is located directly east of the Middle Creek Stream
Tract and is bordered to the north by the South Frontage Road and to the sem#
east by the Vail Valley Medical Center., and to the east by the West Star Ronk
The lot area is 136,807 114,337 square feet or 3.14 2 625 acres.
Since the original inclusion in the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan, a
portion of the Evergreen Lodge parcel, adjacent to the existing VVMC
parking garage, was sold in 2014 to the Vail Valley Medical Center (VVMC).
Additionally, in _(monthof 2015, the Evergreen Lodge and the Vail Valley
Medical Center, entered into an agreement to exchange land that resulted
in the Evergreen Lodge acquiring approximately 12,500 sq. ft. of the VVMC
property south of the Evergreen Lodge and VVMC acquiring 9,970 sq. ft. of
Evergreen Lodge land east of the Lodge. (See figure ???) The agreement
was reached based on the results of a two day charrette between VVMC,
Town of Vail, and the Evergreen Lodge representatives, which was
conducted in December of 2014 where the parties developed a workable
conceptual development plan benefiting all parties. The resulting land area
for the Evergreen Lodge is approximately 2.68 acres after the land trade.
Physical improvements that currently exist on the site are a nine -story tall
hotel/condominium structure with an adjoining two-story tall hotel facilities wing
(19 dwelling units and 128 accommodation units) gone below -grade
structured parking garage (52 parking spaces), and paved surface parking (85
parking spaces). The nine -story tall structure has a predominant east -west
orientation along the southerly edge of the site while the facilities wing has a
north -south orientation along the westerly edge of the site. Vehicle access to
Town of Vail Page 2
the site is provided at two curb cuts along the South Frontage Road. No
dedicated loading and delivery berths currently exist on the site. Delivery
vehicles often are required to maneuver onto the site by backing from the
South Frontage Road. TTheP__A.Sterr, marking garage is utilized by the Vail Valle
Opportunities for future improvements and upgrades include:
• Elimination of surface parking and creation of more underground parking;
• Enclosed Loading and Delivery;
• Architectural enhancements consistent with the Lionshead Architectural
Design Guidelines;
• Improved exterior lighting;
• Coordinated vehicular access and implementation of the Vail Streetscape
Master Plan recommendations;
• Creek improvements to improve health and access by the public;
• Improved streetscape and landscaping along the South Frontage Road;
• Improved pedestrian circulation along the South Frontage Road and
connection to West Meadow Drive, and
• Upgraded and expanded hotel accommodations and amenities.
5.19.1 Pedestrian Access
Pedestrian access should be upgraded to provide a safe and attractive
pedestrian connection from the South Frontage Road, through the Evergreen
Lodge development site and/or the adjacent tracts of land owned by the
Town of Vail and the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District, to West
Meadow Drive and with a continuous pedestrian/bicycle path along the South
Frontage Road, as .depiGted gr, Map T herein, consistent with the Town's
proposed plans for a roundabout along the frontage of the Evergreen
Lodge property (see figure ???). A gravel path connecting the South Frontage
Road to the paved pedestrian path located on the east side of the Dobson Ice
Arena presently exists along the south side of the property. This path, while
functional, receives little, if any, regular maintenance and includes a railroad tie
set of stairs that is unsafe and in disrepair. There are currently no pedestrian
improvements located along the South Frontage Road along the Evergreen
Lodge frontage. Though no improvements exist, a fair number of pedestrians
use the southerly edge of the South Frontage Road when entering or exiting the
site or while traveling past the property. In order to improve pedestrian access
and safety, it is recommended that future redevelopment of the site includes the
construction of a continuous pedestrian/bicycle path along the South Frontage
Road and that the existing gravel path along the southerly edge of the site be
improved and regularly maintained. Said impFeyemen4s may neneooita4e the
Reed f9F p rles+rian anness ease +hoc Based on the results of
the charrette with VVMC, the land trade provides an opportunity to create a
pedestrian walkway from the South Frontage Road to West Meadow Drive
along the new shared property line between the structures on both
Town of Vail Page 3
properties. Conceptually, the new walkway could benefit users of both the
VVMC and the Evergreen Lodge properties while also allowing for access
by the public. It may be necessary to utilize the Town owned Lot 10 to
accomplish the desired pedestrian connection from South Frontage Road
to West Meadow Drive, a desired public improvement.
5.19.2 South Frontage Road Improvements and Vehicular Access
The site is currently accessed by vehicles from the South Frontage Road #GM
with two, full movement-,4we-way access points. The current location of these
access points relative to the existing access points for the `ye�aT US Bank
Building, Vail Valley Medical Center parking structure, Town of Vail Municipal
Buildings, and potential future access points to the Vail Valley Medical Center
and Vail International Building results in undesirable traffic flow and turning
movements creating traffic safety, apd capacity, and level of service concerns.
In keeping with Policy Objective 2.3.4, Improved Access and Circulation, of the
Plan, opportunities for public transportation and vehicular circulation
improvements should be explored in conjunction with any future redevelopment
of the site. Vehicular access to the Evergreen Lodge from West Meadow
Drive shall be prohibited. 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 and landscaped medians, and the
evaluation and possible implementation of an intersection solution, such as a
roundabout. It is preferred by the Town that a full roundabout be located
along the frontage of this site that takes into account the additional
through traffic needs generally of the community but also specifically of
the future redevelopment of the Town's municipal site, WMC, and the
Evergreen Lodge property, though additional study of the roundabout
design is necessary. As currently envisioned, the roundabout and roadway
improvements would allow for a primary right in, right out vehicular access
and a separate right in, right out service vehicle access to the Evergreen
Lodge property.
5.19.3 Preservation of Existing Accommodation Units
The Evergreen Lodge presently contains 128 short-term accommodation units. Ir
addition, the Evergreen Lodge also contains a restaurant and meeting space
facilities incidental to the operation of the Lodge. Built in 1974 these existing
units and facilities are old and developed to the standards desired decades
ago and no longer provide guests with accommodations meeting modern
expectations. Given the importance and need for short-term accommodations
to the vitality and success of the community, any future redevelopment of the site
shall ensure the preservation of short-term accommodation units on the site,
pursuant to the live bed policy in Section 4.13. The preser„o+inn of shert term

Town of Vail Page 4
RRIMMIT ".29
ro�ii-ccraved While the development trend in Vail over the last two decades has
been to focus on high-end, luxury accommodations utilizing more floor
area per room, the opportunity exists to create high quality units that are
smaller and more affordable yet still achieve the goal of maintaining the
existing number of keys, live beds, and improving the revenues and vitality
of the Town. In�Opportunities for increasing the number of accommodation
units beyond the existing 128 units already on-site should be evaluated during
the development review process. For example, the construction of "attached
accommodation units"asdef,iRe d ir, +ho 7nninn Reg ilo+ieps or the provision of
a rental management program, could significantly increase the availability of
short-term rental opportunities within the building.
5.19.4 Impacts on Middle Creek Stream Tract
Tho AAirlrlle GFeel� FP_ _m Tr_n4 lino to 4�P_04 r -f the CYeFgFeeR Ledge.
Tr-An4 io GYem by he Te_\.AV , of Vaa 1. The Evergreen site is bordered on the
west by Middle Creek running through two tracts of land: one owned by the
Town and one owned by the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District. The
tracts are +s heavily vegetated with several substantial deciduous trees and a
significant lower layer of underbrush and also includes some pedestrian path
improvements and a pedestrian bridge. Given the importance of water
quality it is imperative that any future development on the Evergreen Lodge
site does not negative impact the riparian corridor of Middle Creek.
Although the site borders the Middle Creek Strearn TraGt, these tracts, there is
no significant amount of quality vegetation on the site and the parcel lies out of
the 100 -year flood plain. As currently configured, opportunities exist to better
recognize the benefits of creek side development and to improve and enhance
the riparian corridor. While the Pat- iral riparian corridor of Middle Creek should
,needs, te remain protected and preserved, the physical and visual relationships
and references between adjacent development and the stream tracts should be
strengthened. Careful consideration should be taken when approving any
application for development adjacent to the Creek. An opportunity exists to
create a significant connection between the Evergreen Lodge and Middle Creek.
Any use of Middle Creek for aesthetic or recreational purposes, however, should
be subordinate to the preservation of the natural riparian corridor and its inherent
natural character. The Middle GFeek StFeam Trar_t These stream tracts may
provide an opportunity for the construction of a recreational path connecting the
South Frontage Road and uses on the Evergreen Lodge property to the
existing pedestrian paths at the Dobson Ice Arena providing a strong
pedestrian connection to West Meadow Drive.
5.19.5 Relationship to the Vail Valley Medical Center and the
Center Town's Lot 10
Town of Vail Page 5
Perhaps the most critical functional relationship is the need to coordinate any
future development on the Evergreen Lodge site with the Vail Valley Medical
Center.C,rexample every effort she, ilr! ho iaLen ie ensi ire +ho+ fi it ire
delieFy fanilities grading and si+e ieRtS shared pa*ing pedestFian
pathway nenneniiens and I-Aind evnhaRges Both parties have taken steps to
ensure the properties can be redeveloped in a more coordinated manner by
executing the land exchange. The land exchange provides better access
length and frontage and redevelopment opportunities to the Vail Valley
Medical Center by securing additional South Frontage Road access and
providing a location for the future emergency helipad providing direct
access to medical facilities on -campus. The exchange of land gives the
Evergreen Lodge an opportunity to make an important pedestrian
connection to West Meadow Drive, thereby strengthening the pedestrian
connection into Lionshead and Vail Village. The land exchange also allows
for a better vehicular access by providing a reasonable location for a
roundabout located in front of the Evergreen Lodge improving access to
both properties. This pedestrian connection potentially utilizes a one-story
deck that could cover surface parking on the VVMC campus. While a deck
provides covered and screened parking, it also adds a landscape element
benefiting the views and use by patrons from Evergreen Lodge and VVMC.
In order for a connection and landscape enhancement to be successful, it
must be developed without setbacks between the properties and may
require stairs and elevator access on or adjacent to Lot 10. (see figure
???)
The Town owns Lot 10, which is located at the southwest corner of the
existing VVMC campus and at the southern end of the land included in the
land trade to the Evergreen Lodge (see figure ???). The southerly portion
of Lot 10 is developed as West Meadow Drive street and sidewalk
improvements and the northerly portion is currently developed with a
surface parking lot currently used jointly by WMC and the Town's library
personnel. While not essential for the redevelopment of the Evergreen
Lodge, a preferred alternative would be to allow a portion of Lot 10 to be
used by the Evergreen Lodge to provide a strong connection to West
Meadow Drive. Any private use of Lot 10 should provide a public benefit to
the community and interest, vitality, and interaction with pedestrians along
West Meadow Drive, such as public art or a public park and provide for
access of Evergreen Lodge patrons. The other portion of Lot 10 not
utilized by the Evergreen Lodge could be utilized for a covered landscape
deck and parking for WMC and pedestrian connection enhancements to
allow connection back to the South Frontage Road. (see figure ???)
Town of Vail Page 6
Because it is unlikely that the redevelopment of the Evergreen Lodge and
VVMC will occur within the same timeframes, any redevelopment of the
Evergreen Lodge property or WMC property will need to provide
appropriate interim development solutions that allow the properties to be
developed in a functional and aesthetic fashion. Guarantees and/or
temporary improvements such as landscape buffers and pedestrian paths
may be required of any redevelopment program in the interim.
5.19.6 Service and Delivery
Service and delivery functions for the hotel are currently accommodated on
grade from the westerly entrance to the property. Service and delivery for the
redeveloped Evergreen Lodge should occur within the structures
or otherwise be hiddep adequately screened from public view. Service and
delivery truck turning maneuvering should not negatively impact traffic flow on
the South Frontage Road and it is anticipated that a separate loading and
service entry will be allowed in conjunction with the placement of a
potential new roundabout in this location. `n�i�TooligRRq Rt r,f +ho

5.19.7 Setbacks from the South Frontage Road
Special consideration should be given to the setback of buildings from the South
Frontage Road. Pursuant to the Lionshead Mixed Use -1 zone district setback
standards, a minimum 10 -foot (10') setback is required. Given the relationship of
the development site to the South Frontage Road, the need for adequate area for
vehicular traffic circulation, the importance of a landscape area to visually screen
the massing of the building, and the existence of a 30 -foot wide utility easement
along the southerly edge of the South Frontage Road, the minimum required
front setback for the Evergreen Lodge development site shall be thirty feet (30').
This increased setback requirement shall supersede the 10 -foot setback
requirement prescribed in Section 12-7H-10, Setbacks, Vail Town Code.
Based to the coordinated efforts and agreements between the Evergreen
Lodge and the Vail Valley Medical Center, there are opportunities for a
covered parking deck and pedestrian access landscape plaza to be
developed between the properties. If appropriately designed, a zero set
back in these areas should be considered during the development review
process. Additionally, below grade improvements, including but not limited
to, parking and circulation improvements may be developed without the
need for setbacks if found to be consistent with the Town's development
objectives.
Town of Vail Page 7
5.19.8 Architectural Improvements and Building Heights
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 on this site and the extent to which they influence the quality of the
experience of passers-by, all future development on the site should be closely
scrutinized for compliance with the applicable architectural design guidelines.
That said, the Evergreen Lodge is located in a transitional area with VVMC,
the Library, and Dobson Arena, which tend to have more modern or
institutional architecture. It may be appropriate to allow the Evergreen
Lodge to be redeveloped with a contemporary expression of alpine
architecture to address this transitional location provided it is found to be
consistent with the Town's development objectives and adopted design
guidelines. The building will need to have a relationship to adjacent
buildings and pedestrian corridors. With the addition of the land acquired
from the Vail Valley Medical Center, the Evergreen Lodge has the
opportunity to step building mass down towards West Meadow Drive in a
north/south orientation. Building mass should step down from the South
Frontage Road to the south boundary of the Evergreen Lodge property.
The building on the exchange parcel should step down to a maximum of
four or five stories with complementary roof forms to achieve a more
pedestrian scale building, consistent with the west wing of the medical
center. The final building massing, scale and form shall be determined
during the development review process.
5.19.9 Public Transit Stop
A public transit stop is presently located east of the `^��ar US Bank Building,
across the street from the Town Municipal offices. Through the future
redevelopment of the Evergreen Lodge and the Vail Valley Medical Center, an
opportunity exists to potentially relocate the transit stop to a more optimal
location.
IV. DISCUSSION ITEMS
5.19 Evergreen Lodge at Vail
The master plan language included within this section provides a broad overview of the
existing site, structure and outcomes of the land exchange. The proposed changes
contain facts associated with the potential land exchange and identify opportunities for
future improvements and upgrades.
• Staff agrees that a figure depicting the land exchange and overall parcel would
be beneficial to this section.
Town of Vail Page 8
5.19.1 Pedestrian Access
This section of the Plan highlights the importance of pedestrian connections along the
South Frontage Road and north/south through the site connecting West Meadow Drive
to the South Frontage Road. The applicant has proposed to strike the sentence
identifying the need for a public easement to be placed upon the pedestrian
connections. This section concludes with recommendations for the Town owned Lot
10.
• Staff agrees that a figure depicting the pedestrian connections would be
beneficial to the understanding of this need and recommends Map T be
amended accordingly.
• It should be noted that the Town Council will need to review statements
regarding Lot 10 and determine its role in the revised text.
• Staff recommends the sentence identifying the need for public pedestrian
easements remain as an expectation within this section.
5.19.2 South Frontage Road Improvements and Vehicular Access
This section of the Plan speaks to the future traffic improvements needed on the South
Frontage Road to address access to the Evergreen Lodge, Vail Valley Medical Center
(VVMC), and the Town municipal site. Significant review and vetting has resulted in a
solution which incorporates a roundabout and medians which would restrict many site
access turning movements to right-in/right-out. The proposed language speaks to the
roundabout solution that has been captured in the VVMC Master Plan. It is also
anticipated that amendments will be forthcoming to the Vail Transportation Master Plan
to capture this recent traffic improvement within the plan.
Staff recommends a statement be added emphasizing the importance of the
roundabout to ensure Town accepted Levels of Service (LOS) are achieved and
that it is noted that CDOT requirements shall be met with regard to all driveways
and access points.
5.19.3 Preservation of Existing Accommodation Units
Within this section of the Plan the applicant proposes to strike the requirement to
preserve the number of accommodation units on the site and the amount of gross
residential floor area devoted to accommodation units. This requirement captures the
intent of several Master Plan goals and objectives. Policy Objective 2.3.3, Stronger
Economic Base Through Increased Live Beds, Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan,
speaks to the importance of live beds and policy of no net loss of existing live beds.
Within the Vail Land Use Plan Commercial Goals 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 speak to the
importance of hotels. Staff has included these goals within Section V of this
memorandum.
In place of this requirement the applicant has cited Section 4.13, Live Beds, Lionshead
Redevelopment Master Plan as the guiding policy for the redevelopment of the site (text
Town of Vail Page 9
included in Section V). The Live Bed policy does not necessarily require the
incorporation of accommodations units. It allows for a mixture of unit types which can
be owned in whole or in part, thus resulting in the ability to choose not to participate in
any rental program.
Staff finds it necessary to maintain a requirement within this section clearly
identifying the need for accommodation units to be located upon the site. There
may be some merit to a discussion which seeks to achieve an equivalency with
any new development as compared to the existing development. Staff
recognizes that the 128 hotel rooms on the site were developed in 1974 and may
not meet the needs of our guests in terms of modern design, size, amenities, etc.
It may be appropriate to discuss a requirement to maintain the gross residential
square footage devoted to accommodation units while allowing for some
reduction in overall number or vice -versa. Regardless, whatever language is
ultimately approved, it must further the Town's policy regarding live beds. Staff
would like to engage in a conversation with the Commission and applicant
regarding this requirement at the public hearing.
5.19.4 Impacts on Middle Creek Stream Tract
This section identified the need to protect and preserve the Middle Creek riparian
corridor prior to the listing of Gore Creek on the 303d list of impaired streams. The
proposed text changes expand upon the concept of protecting and reestablishing the
riparian corridor while balancing the possibility to establish it as an amenity to the
community and the Evergreen Lodge site.
Staff recommends language is added to address a requirement to comply with
any adopted stream health initiatives, policies, and/or regulations that are
developed as the town moves forward on improvements to Gore Creek stream
health.
5.19.5 Relationship to the Vail Valley Medical Center and the proposed Vail Givin
Center Town's Lot 10
This section includes proposed text highlighting the opportunities created by the land
exchange. Furthermore it speaks to the likelihood of an interim scenario as the VVMC
may redevelop sooner than the Evergreen Lodge site and consideration will need to be
given to changes to vehicular access, pedestrian paths, landscaping, etc.
Staff would agree that a figure depicting the pedestrian connections would be
beneficial to the understanding of this need.
It should be noted that the Town Council will need to review statements
regarding Lot 10 and determine its role in the revised text. Should this
amendment move forward the Town Council would weigh in on any provisions
regarding Lot 10 and its future inclusion in any development scenario.
5.19.6 Service and Delivery
Town of Vail Page 10
Amendments to this section include a provision for a separate curb cut access for
loading and delivery vehicles. Within the VVMC MP a provision for the exploration of a
shared loading and delivery scenario between the VVMC and Evergreen Lodge was
included in Chapter 10, Potential Land exchange with the Evergreen Lodge.
Staff recommends language is added to this section identifying a need to explore
shared loading and delivery scenarios with the VVMC. A sentence with this
same requirement was included in the PEC recommended VVMC MP text to
Town Council. While VVMC will likely maintain some form of service and
delivery on West Meadow Drive, as contemplated in the VVMC MP, there may
be opportunities to further reduce vehicle trips on West Meadow Drive.
5.19.7 Setbacks from the South Frontage Road
No text is proposed to be stricken within this section. Text has been added to address
the potential for a covered parking deck in the location of the west parking lot for the
VVMC. Below grade encroachments into the required setbacks have been permitted
upon several properties zoned Lionshead Mixed Use 1. The encroachment of below
grade improvements has been balanced with the need to be able to plant appropriate
vegetation upon the structure. Items to consider are the loads placed upon any below
grade structure through the placement of soil and plant material and water drainage.
Staff recommends a figure be added to this section to depict the concepts
included within the proposed text for consideration of zero setbacks. A zero
setback should not be granted at this time. Staff cannot evaluate and comment
on any proposed reduction in setbacks without the provision of graphics depicting
any proposed reductions in the 10 -foot minimum setback.
5.19.8 Architectural Improvements and Building Heights
No text is proposed to be stricken within this section. Text has been added to address
the need to step the structure down as the development approaches West Meadow
Drive. Additionally, it speaks to the need for the development to relate to adjacent
buildings. It is important to note that the future emergency helipad building is to be
located on the northwest corner of the VVMC site. This new building is identified as
being up to 75 feet in height.
Staff recommends the inclusion of a figure identifying the anticipated bulk and
mass envisioned for the site through the indication of the number of floor plates
upon various portions of the site. Conceptual in nature, the figure generally
depict
5.19.9 Public Transit Stop
There were no substantive changes made to this section. The recommendations
contained within remain valid.
Town of Vail Page 11
V.
BACKGROUND
The Evergreen Lodge was previously zoned Special Development District No. 14 with
an underlying zoning of High Density Multiple -Family. The Special Development District
(SDD) was established via Ordinance No. 5, Series of 1986. The SDD permitted 128
accommodation units, 19 dwelling units, a restaurant, lounge, spa, and meeting
room/conference facility space.
On December 20, 2005, Resolution No. 23, Series of 2005, was approved by the Vail
Town Council amending the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan to include detailed
plan recommendations for the Evergreen Lodge site and amend the boundaries of the
Lionshead Study Area. Additionally, Ordinance No. 30, Series of 2005, was adopted
establishing Lionshead Mixed Use 1 District zoning for the Evergreen Lodge parcel.
VI. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Staff believes that the following provisions of the Vail Town Code are relevant to the
review of this proposal:
TITLE 12: ZONING REGULATIONS
Article 12-7H Lionshead Mixed Use 1 (LMU-1) District (in part)
12-7H-1: PURPOSE:
The Lionshead mixed use 1 district is intended to provide sites for a mixture of multiple -
family dwellings, lodges, hotels, fractional fee clubs, timeshares, lodge dwelling units,
restaurants, offices, skier services, and commercial establishments in a clustered,
unified development. Lionshead mixed use 1 district, in accordance with the Lionshead
redevelopment master plan, is intended to ensure adequate light, air, open space and
other amenities appropriate to the permitted types of buildings and uses and to maintain
the desirable qualities of the zone district by establishing appropriate site development
standards. This zone district is meant to encourage and provide incentives for
redevelopment in accordance with the Lionshead redevelopment master plan.
This zone district was specifically developed to provide incentives for properties to
redevelop. The ultimate goal of these incentives is to create an economically vibrant
lodging, housing, and commercial core area. The incentives in this zone district include
increases in allowable gross residential floor area, building height, and density over the
previously established zoning in the Lionshead redevelopment master plan study area.
The primary goal of the incentives is to create economic conditions favorable to
inducing private redevelopment consistent with the Lionshead redevelopment master
plan. Additionally, the incentives are created to help finance public off site
improvements adjacent to redevelopment projects. With any
development/redevelopment proposal taking advantage of the incentives created
herein, the following amenities will be evaluated. streetscape improvements,
Town of Vail
Page 12
pedestrian/bicycle access, public plaza redevelopment, public art, roadway
improvements, and similar improvements.
LIONSHEAD REDEVELOMENT MASTER PLAN
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
Town of Vail Page 13
redevelopment and revitalization efforts and to meet the service expectations of
our guests and residents.
4.13 Live Beds
The maintenance, preservation, and enhancement of the live bed base are critical
to the future success of Lionshead and as such, special emphasis should be
placed on increasing the number of live beds in Lionshead as the area undergoes
redevelopment. The Lionshead area currently contains a large percentage of the
Town's overall lodging bed base. The bed base in Lionshead's consists of a
variety of residential and lodging products including hotels, condominiums,
timeshares and hybrids of all three. The vast majority of live beds in Lionshead
are not accommodation units in hotels, but instead, in dwelling units in residential
condominiums such as the Vail 21, Treetops, Antlers Lodge, Lion Square Lodge,
Lifthouse Lodge, Landmark Tower and Townhomes, Lionshead Arcade, and
Montaneros, all of which have some form of rental/property management program
that encourages short term rental of dwelling units when the owners are not in
residence. It has been the experience in Lionshead that condominium projects
which include a voluntary rental management program have occupancy rates
which exceed the occupancy rate of hotel products, and therefore tend to provide
more live beds and produce more lodging tax revenues to the Town. Applications
for new development or redevelopment which maintain, preserve, and enhance
the live bed base in Lionshead have a significantly greater chance of approval in
the development review process than those which do not.
4.13.1 Live Bed Definition
Pursuant to Policy Objective 2.3.3, live beds (and warm beds) are defined
as residential or lodging rooms or units that are designed for occupancy
by visitors, guests, individuals, or families, on a short term rental basis. A
live bed may include the following residential products. accommodation
units, fractional fee club units, lodge dwelling units, timeshare units,
attached accommodation units (i.e., lock -off units), and dwelling units
which are included in a voluntary rental management program and
available for short term rental.
4.13.2 Location of Live Beds
Live beds should be located in Lionshead pursuant to the Lionshead
Mixed Use 1 and 2 zone districts. All properties within Lionshead, when
developing or redeveloping and providing new residential or lodging
products, should provide live beds as defined herein.
4.13.3 Hotel -types of Services and Amenities
To aid in the furtherance of Policy Objective 2.3.3 of the Plan, the creation
of additional live beds should include hotel -types of services and
amenities. Such services and amenities may include, but not be limited
to, the operation of a front desk, registration/reservation capabilities,
recreational amenities, guest drop-off, on-site management, etc. These
types of services and amenities in multiple family residential dwellings will
Town of Vail Page 14
increase the likelihood that the dwelling units will be made available for
short term occupancy and help to promote improved occupancy rates.
4.13.4 Review of New Development and Redevelopment Projects
The Planning and Environmental Commission shall consider the policies
and direction given by this Plan with respect to live beds when reviewing
new development and redevelopment projects in Lionshead. Applications
for new development or redevelopment shall maintain the live bed base in
Lionshead. Applications for new development and redevelopment which
enhance the live bed base have a significantly greater chance of approval
in the development review process than those which do not. 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.
VAIL LAND USE PLAN
CHAPTER II — LAND USE PLAN GOALS/ POLICIES.-
The
OLICIES.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.
Town of Vail Page 15
1. 13 Vail recognizes its stream tract as being a desirable land feature as well as its
potential for public use.
3. Commercial
3.1 The hotel bed base should be preserved and use more efficiently.
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.
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.
4.2 Increased density in the Core areas is acceptable so long as the existing
character of each area is preserved through implementation of the Urban Design
Guide Plan and the Vail Village Master Plan.
4.4 The connection between the Village Core and Lionshead should be enhanced
through.-
a.
hrough.a. Installation of a new type of people mover.
b. Improving the pedestrian system with a creatively designed connection,
oriented toward a nature walk, alpine garden, and/or sculpture plaza.
c. New development should be controlled to limit commercial uses.
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.
Town of Vail Page 16
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.
VII. CRITERIA
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 the passage of a 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?
How is the plan in error?
How would an addition, deletion, or change to the plan be in concert with
the plan in general?
Staff will provide responses to these criteria when a final recommendation is requested
from the Planning and Environmental Commission.
VIII. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department recommends that the Town of Vail Planning
and Environmental Commission continues this discussion to the September 14, 2015,
public hearing.
