the Vail Town Council for second reading of an adopting ordinance for the establishment of
Special Development District No. 39, Crossroads:
The Developer shall prepare an amended written agreement, for Town Council
review and approval, outlining the responsibilities and requirements of the required
offsite improvements, as indicated on the proposed Approved Development Plan.
This agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all streetscape improvements
along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, public access to the plaza for
pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may include the establishment of an
easement on the plaza and language in the covenants and declarations for owners
of property in the project regarding the use of the plaza for special events, inclusion
of the loading and delivery facility in the overall loading and delivery system,
payment of traffic impact fees and credits given to offset fee, and details for funding
public art.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a
building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building
permit);
Ordinance No. 7, Series 2009 3
The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall section,
architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review and approval
of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application for a building permit.
2. The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan for review and
approval by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building permit
application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated into the overall
design of the structure and enclosed and visually screened from public view.
3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado Department
of Transportation (CDOT) prior to submitting for a building permit. Failure to receive
the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road per the Approved
Development Plan will require the project to return through the special development
district review process.
4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail
Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public
Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an application to the
Town of Vail Community Department for the issuance of a building permit for this
project.
5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety radio
communications system within the subterranean parking structure which meets the
specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The specifications and
details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review and approval with the
application for a building permit.

Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal.

1. The Developer shall submit a comprehensive sign program for review and approval
by the Design Review Board, prior to requesting a temporary certificate of

2. The Developer shall be assessed a traffic impact fee of $6,500 per net trip increase
in p.m. traffic. The traffic and trip generation report prepared by Fox Higgins
Transportation Group dated June 2007, that specifically addresses the change in
number of condominium units from 75 to 77, states that the net peak increase is 81
trips, 13 more trips than in the original approved traffic study dated November 2005.
Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works
Department will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full
building permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that
will lease the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the
trip generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the
number of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study. This impact fee
Ordinance No. 7, Series 2009 4
shall not be offset by any public improvements and shall be paid prior to requesting
a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy.

cost of the required off-site public improvements. The bond shall be in place with
the Town prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy. This
includes but is not limited to the proposed streetscape improvements.
4. The Developer shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements
within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the
ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently
toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently
work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the
special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said
special development district shall be void. The Planning and Environmental
Commission and Town Council shall review the special development district upon

The Developer shall prepare an amended written agreement, for Town Council
review and approval, outlining the responsibilities and requirements of the required
offsite improvements, as indicated on the proposed Approved Development Plan.
This agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all streetscape improvements
along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, public access to the plaza for
pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may include the establishment of an
easement on the plaza and language in the covenants and declarations for owners
of property in the project regarding the use of the plaza for special events, inclusion
of the loading and delivery facility in the overall loading and delivery system,
payment of traffic impact fees and credits given to offset fee, and details for funding
public art.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a
building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building
permit);
Ordinance No. 7, Series 2009 3
1. The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall section,
architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review and approval
of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application for a building permit.
2. The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan for review and
approval by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building permit
application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated into the overall
design of the structure and enclosed and visually screened from public view.
3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado Department
of Transportation (C DOT) prior to submitting for a building permit. Failure to receive
the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road per the Approved
Development Plan will require the project to return through the special development
district review process.
4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail
Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public
Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an application to the
Town of Vail Community Department for the issuance of a building permit for this
project.
5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety radio
communications system within the subterranean parking structure which meets the
specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The specifications and
details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review and approval with the
application for a building permit.
6. The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by the
Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to release of a full
building permit, requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy, or a final certificate of
occupancy;
1. The Developer shall submit a comprehensive sign program for review and approval
by the Design Review Board, prior to requesting a temporary certificate of
occupancy, or a final certificate of occupancy.
2. The Developer shall be assessed a traffic impact fee of $6,500 per net trip increase
in p.m. traffic. The traffic and trip generation report prepared by Fox Higgins
Transportation Group dated June 2007, that specifically addresses the change in
number of condominium units from 75 to 77, states that the net peak increase is 81
trips, 13 more trips than in the original approved traffic study dated November 2005.
Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works
Department will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full
building permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that
will lease the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the
trip generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the
number of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study. This impact fee
Ordinance No. 7, Series 2009 4
shall not be offset by any public improvements and shall be paid prior to requesting
a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy.
3. The Developer shall post a bond to provide financial security for 125% of the total
cost of the required off-site public improvements. The bond shall be in place with
the Town prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy. This
includes but is not limited to the proposed streetscape improvements.
4. The Developer shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements
within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the
ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently
toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently
work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the
special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said
special development district shall be void. The Planning and Environmental
Commission and Town Council shall review the special development district upon
submittal of an application to reestablish the special development district following
the procedures outlined in Section 12-9A-4, Vail Town Code.
5. Employee Housing: Crossroads shall furnish deed restricted employee housing

WHEREAS, the members of the Town Council of the Town (the "Council") have
been duly elected and qualified; and
WHEREAS, the Vail Municipal Court requires the ability to impose restitution in
criminal actions where a defendant has been adjudged guilty for violating an ordinance of the
Town for any actual damage or loss caused by the offense or infraction for which the
conviction or judgment of liability was had; and
WHEREAS, the Council declares that the victims of a crime are entitled to be
compensated for their losses and hereby finds that it is in the best interest of the citizens of
the Town to revise the Town Code by amending Title 1 with the addition of a new subsection,

entered pursuant to this Section shall be a final civil judgment in favor of the Town
and any victim. Notwithstanding any other civil or criminal statute or rule, any such

coverage policy.
(d) Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to limit or abrogate the rights and
immunities set forth in the "Colorado Governmental Immunity Act," Article 10 of Title
24, C.R.S.
Section 2. If any part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance
is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not effect the validity of the remaining
portions of this ordinance; and the Town Council hereby declares it would have passed this
ordinance, and each part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase thereof,
regardless of the fact that any one or more parts, sections, subsections, sentences, clauses
or phrases be declared invalid.

or superseded unless expressly stated herein.
Section 4. All bylaws, orders, resolutions and ordinances, or parts thereof, inconsistent
herewith are repealed to the extent only of such inconsistency. This repealer shall not be
construed to revise any bylaw, order, resolution or ordinance, or part thereof, theretofore

A special development district is established to assure comprehensive development and use of an
area in a manner that will be harmonious with the general character of the town, provide adequate
open space and recreational amenities, and promote the objectives of the zoning ordinance of the
town. Ordinarily a special district will be created only when the development density will be lower than
allowed by the existing zoning, an environmental impact report indicates that the special development
will not have a substantial negative effect on the Town or its inhabitants, the development is regarded
as complementary to the Town by the Town Council, Planning and Environmental Commission, and
Design Review Board, and there are significant aspects of the special development which cannot be
satisfied under the existing zoning.

Section 4. Conditions of Approval
The following conditions of approval shall become part of the Town's approval of the

The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to appearing before
the Vail Town Council for second reading of an adopting ordinance for the establishment of
Special Development District No. 39, Crossroads:
1. The Developer shall prepare an amended written agreement, for Town Council
review and approval, outlining the responsibilities and requirements of the required
offsite improvements, as indicated on the proposed Approved Development Plan.
This agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all streetscape improvements
along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, public access to the plaza for
pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may include the establishment of an
easement on the plaza and language in the covenants and declarations for owners
of property in the project regarding the use of the plaza for special events, inclusion
of the loading and delivery facility in the overall loading and delivery system,
payment of traffic impact fees and credits given to offset fee, and details for funding
public art.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a
building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building
permit);
The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall section,
architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review and approval
Ordinance No. 20, Series 2009 3
of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application for a building permit.
2. The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan for review and
approval by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building permit
application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated into the overall
design of the structure and enclosed and visually screened from public view.
3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado Department
of Transportation (CDOT) prior to submitting for a building permit. Failure to receive
the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road per the Approved
Development Plan will require the project to return through the special development
district review process.
4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail
Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public
Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an application to the
Town of Vail Community Department for the issuance of a building permit for this
project.
5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety radio
communications system within the subterranean parking structure which meets the
specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The specifications and
details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review and approval with the
application for a building permit.
6. The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by the
Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to release of a full
building permit, requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy, or a final certificate of
occupancy;
The Developer shall submit a comprehensive sign program for review and approval
by the Design Review Board, prior to requesting a temporary certificate of
occupancy, or a final certificate of occupancy.
The Developer shall be assessed a traffic impact fee of $6,500 per net trip increase
in p.m. traffic. The traffic and trip generation report prepared by Fox Higgins
Transportation Group dated June 2007, that specifically addresses the change in
number of condominium units from 75 to 77, states that the net peak increase is 81
trips, 13 more trips than in the original approved traffic study dated November 2005.
Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works
Department will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full
building permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that
will lease the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the
trip generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the
number of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study. This impact fee
shall not be offset by any public improvements and shall be paid prior to requesting
a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy.
Ordinance No. 20, Series 2009 4
3. The Developer shall post a bond to provide financial security for 125% of the total
cost of the required off-site public improvements. The bond shall be in place with
the Town prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy. This
includes but is not limited to the proposed streetscape improvements.
4. The Developer shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements
within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the
ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently
toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently
work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the
special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said
special development district shall be void. The Planning and Environmental
Commission and Town Council shall review the special development district upon
submittal of an application to reestablish the special development district following
the procedures outlined in Section 12-9A-4, Vail Town Code.
5. Employee Housing: Crossroads shall furnish deed restricted employee housing
sufficient to accommodate 22 occupants by executing appropriate restrictive

shall contain at least 1,500 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more that 5

property located within the Town. Such deed restriction(s) shall be executed and
provided to the Town for recording and restricted unit(s) shall be available for
occupancy prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for the
Crossroads Project or any phase thereof. Any deed restricted employee housing
unit shall comply with the standards and procedures established by the Town
Zoning Regulations.

business offices, and studios. The second floor retail space may be utilized for any
allowable or conditional use as listed in the Commercial Service Center Zone

converted to a residential dwelling unit. Temporary real estate sales offices may be
allowed on the plaza level of retail during the first two years following the issuance of
a certificate of occupancy in order to allow effective sales of dwelling units on-site.
Section 5. If any part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance
is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not effect the validity of the
remaining portions of this ordinance; and the Vail Town Council hereby declares it would
have passed this ordinance, and each part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase
thereof, regardless of the fact that any one or more parts, sections, subsections, sentences,
clauses or phrases be declared invalid.

the inhabitants thereof. The Council's finding, determination and declaration is based upon
the review of the criteria prescribed by the Town Code of Vail and the evidence and
testimony presented in consideration of this ordinance.
Section 7. The amendment of any provision of the Town Code of Vail as provided in this
ordinance shall not affect any right which has accrued, any duty imposed, any violation that
occurred prior to the effective date hereof, any prosecution commenced, nor any other
action or proceeding as commenced under or by virtue of the provision amended. The

the required parking shall be located within the main building or buildings.
The minimum number of loading and delivery bays shall be five (5), as
indicated on the Crossroads Approved Development Plan, described in
Section 2 herein.
Section 4. Conditions of Approval
The following conditions of approval shall become part of the Town's approval of the
establishment of Special Development District No. 39, Crossroads:
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to appearing before
the Vail Town Council for second reading of an adopting ordinance for the establishment of
Special Development District No. 39, Crossroads:
1. The Developer shall prepare an amended written agreement, for Town Council
review and approval, outlining the responsibilities and requirements of the required
offsite improvements, as indicated on the proposed Approved Development Plan.
This agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all streetscape improvements
along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, public access to the plaza for
pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may include the establishment of an
easement on the plaza and language in the covenants and declarations for owners
of property in the project regarding the use of the plaza for special events, inclusion
of the loading and delivery facility in the overall loading and delivery system,
payment of traffic impact fees and credits given to offset fee, and details for funding
public art.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a
building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building
permit);
The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall section,
architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review and approval
Ordinance No. 20, Series 2009 3
of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application for a building permit.
2. The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan for review and
approval by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building permit
application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated into the overall
design of the structure and enclosed and visually screened from public view.
3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado Department
of Transportation (CDOT) prior to submitting for a building permit. Failure to receive
the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road per the Approved
Development Plan will require the project to return through the special development
district review process.
4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail
Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public
Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an application to the
Town of Vail Community Department for the issuance of a building permit for this
project.
5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety radio
communications system within the subterranean parking structure which meets the
specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The specifications and
details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review and approval with the
application for a building permit.
6. The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by the
Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal.
The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to release of a full
building permit, requesting a temporary certificate of occupancy, or a final certificate of
occupancy;
1. The Developer shall submit a comprehensive sign program for review and approval
by the Design Review Board, prior to requesting a temporary certificate of
occupancy, or a final certificate of occupancy.
2. The Developer shall be assessed a traffic impact fee of $6,500 per net trip increase
in p.m. traffic. The traffic and trip generation report prepared by Fox Higgins
Transportation Group dated June 2007, that specifically addresses the change in
number of condominium units from 75 to 77, states that the net peak increase is 81
trips, 13 more trips than in the original approved traffic study dated November 2005.
Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works
Department will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full
building permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that
will lease the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the
trip generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the
number of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study. This impact fee
shall not be offset by any public improvements and shall be paid prior to requesting
a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy.
Ordinance No. 20, Series 2009 4
3. The Developer shall post a bond to provide financial security for 125% of the total
cost of the required off-site public improvements. The bond shall be in place with
the Town prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy. This
includes but is not limited to the proposed streetscape improvements.
4. The Developer shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements
within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the
ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently
toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently
work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the
special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said
special development district shall be void. The Planning and Environmental
Commission and Town Council shall review the special development district upon
submittal of an application to reestablish the special development district following
the procedures outlined in Section 12-9A-4, Vail Town Code.
Employee Housing: Crossroads shall furnish deed restricted employee housing
sufficient to accommodate 22 occupants by executing appropriate restrictive
covenant(s) on form(s) provided by the Town. Any dwelling unit(s) restricted shall
conform to the following floor area requirements: a one -bedroom unit shall contain at
least 550 sq. ft. of floor area and accommodate no more than 2 occupants; a two-

more than 3 occupants; a three-bedroom unit shall contain at least 1,350 sq. ft. of

provided to the Town for recording and restricted unit(s) shall be available for
occupancy prior to the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for the
Crossroads Project or any phase thereof. Any deed restricted employee housing
unit shall comply with the standards and procedures established by the Town

Translation:
"Abbreviations are the best way to make ads hard to
understand, other than Pig Latin."
Lesson Learned:
If you DON'T really want to sell your item, just use as many
abbreviations as possible to make the ad hard to understand.
People won't know if they should be interested enough to call.
Saving a couple of lines on an ad could cost a lot more than a
few dollars. Make it an ad that you would read. Give details.
