and staff apartment with related site improvements, loc ated at 366 Hanson

60 min.
Applicant:Vailpoint L L C , represented by Sarah J Baker, PC
Planner:J onathan S penc e
Planner Spence introduc ed the project and noted that the public
ac commodation zone district has language that allows either staff or an
applicant to request a work session with the P E C, or any town body. He
noted that this work session has been initiated by the applicant, not by
staff. Mr. Spence referred to the staff memo submitted and noted that
there will be no action requested of the P E C today. Mr. S penc e further
noted that there has only been an initial analysis done on the proposal
Ms. Baker, on behalf of the applicant, introduced the team. Mr. Mueller,
owner of Cuvee, George Sollidge, Owner of Vail P oint L L C , J ens W arner,
from REcom Global, Ric k Py lman, Land planning and Emilia Kraft and
Hans Berglund from Berglund Arc hitects.
Ms. Baker stated they requested a work session due to town proc edure
and enumerated the three items they are seeking feedbac k on today. Ms.
Baker stated that there are a few options and would like feedbac k;
however, no formal action is requested.
Ms. Baker stated that the proposed building siting has a c ouple of options.
Setbac ks in the PA district may be modified based on c riteria. The
variation is not a varianc e.
Upon inquiry from Chairman Stockmar, Mr. Spenc e agreed with Ms.
May 21, 2019 - Page 19 of 114
Baker ’s interpretation of the PA zone district setbacks.
Ms. Baker noted that the building footprint that does meet setbac ks has
implic ations for the pedestrian experience in the area.
Mr. Baker stated there is also a desire to address the fac t that there are
two zoning designations for the single lot. She noted that there was a
previous attempt to rec oncile that issue, however, was not achieved on a
PE C vote.
Mr. Larry Mueller, founder and C E O of Cuvee, then provided an overview
of how the building will be operated. Mr. Mueller desc ribed the private
lodge and the clientele it serves. He noted that there is a large demand for
high end lodges that allow people to travel as extended families or as
friends and have a private lodge experience with acc ess to high-end
amenities.
Mr. Mueller noted that the property has private space for families as well as
common space. He stated that y ou c an only rent the structure as an entire
unit, and individual rooms are not individually leased out.
Hans Berglund and Emilia Kraft presented to the Board design images of
the proposed building. He noted that setbacks can be modified without a
variance as long as five c riteria are met. He then presented why this
proposal meets each of those criteria. Mr. Berglund stated that the
proposal maintains open spac e and creates a more welc oming pedestrian
element. Additionally, he noted that the proposal will maintain adequate light
and air. Mr. Berglund stated that they reviewed the I B C to ensure they will
meet building code requirements for building setbac k requirements. He
noted that the proposed building setbac k has the massing stepped bac k
between 10’-16’ to create more spac e.
Mr. Berglund then discussed the proposed tower which would c omply with
the 60’ standard for architec tural projections and stated that the tower is
essentially the same height as the Tivoli building next door. He noted that
towers are prominent features and is consistent and will add to the visual
overall landscape from a distance as well as a pedestrian.
Mr. Berglund then desc ribed the proposed materials, a stone base around
the house as the main arc hitectural element and the other materials inc lude
two c olors of copper siding, one as a very dark bronze tone and a lighter
copper color, heavy timber construction. He noted that the theme is
mountain architecture and speaks to the early day s of Vail. He noted that
while they are before the board to talk about setbac ks, he feels that the
building design will c ontribute to the c ommunity.
Mr. Kurz inquired about the func tion of the tower besides the arc hitectural
design.
Mr. Berglund stated that it is mainly arc hitectural, there is not spac e in it,
with the exception of stairs and a small landing with balc onies that wrap
around.
Upon inquiry from Ms. Hopkins, Mr. Berglund stated that the tower could
be lower, however, in order to ac hieve the effect of a tower, the height is
needed.
May 21, 2019 - Page 20 of 114
Ms. Hopkins inquired about the throughway from Mill Creek Circ le to
Golden Peak.
Mr. Berglund stated that the new building will be more attractive. Mr.
Berglund stated that there have been discussions with Vail Resorts about
updating the landsc aping. He stated that trees are to be removed within the
property.
The board then reviewed the shadow study. Mr. Stockmar noted a c oncern
that the shadow is extensive and puts all of Hanson Ranc h Road in
shadow, which is ic y and has implications for safety. The existing pavers
are snow melted but not the asphalt road.
Upon inquiry from Ms. P erez, Mr. Berglund noted that the alternative
footprint would be similar in terms of shadow impact.
Ms. Baker stated that at the next meeting they will provide the current
condition as well as proposed. Ms. Baker noted that the cumulative impact
will be helpful in a future discussion.
Mr. Kurz inquired about proposed parking.
Mr. Ric k Py lman, stated that the lodge parking requirements is 0.7 parking
spaces per room, 7 parking spac es total would be required. 1 ½ spaces
are attributed to the small c aretaker unit. He noted there are 3 spaces in
the garage and 4 spaces outside of the garage. All parking spac es are on
the property.
Mr. Kjesbo noted that Tivoli was required to have 15-minute parking and
cars c urrently block the sidewalk, which pushes people into the icy road.
Mr. Py lman stated that since the entire property is to be rented out and not
as individual units, they do not foresee parking being an issue. Mr. Kjesbo
noted that the use c an c hange which would impac t the operation. Mr.
Stoc kmar noted that the ownership and use can change at any time. Mr.
Stoc kmar noted that the P E C must consider future impac t as well as
proposed operations.
Mr. Py lman stated they will take the P E C’s comments into c onsideration
into the design.
Mr. Kjesbo stated that the Tivoli was approved with a varianc e for the
height and noted that he has an issue with something extending up 56’ on
the c orner and that it looks out of place and unbalanc es the building. He
does not like that much bulk right at the street.
Upon inquiry from Mr. Kjesbo, Mr. Spenc e noted that the Town Council
never opined on the zoning c hange.
Mr. Stockmar stated that the meeting when this property was addressed in
J une of 2018, the minutes reflect some of his conc erns are allayed by the
design. Mr. Stockmar stated that it was an odd circ umstance due to how
the property was obtained. Mr. Stoc kmar inquired if the applic ant would
take out the fence ac ross the bac k y ard?
Ms. Baker stated that they have not c ontemplated removing the fence,
however, will consider it through the design process. Ms. Baker stated that
the message has been rec eived and will focus on it moving forward. Mr.
May 21, 2019 - Page 21 of 114
Stoc kmar stated that there may be implic ations for the fence, existing
trees, and hot tub.
Upon inquiry from Ms. P erez, Mr. Spence stated that the same standards
for varianc es do not apply for a setbac k variation. He noted that a varianc e
is a different thing from a variation, which is subjec t to the five-c riteria Mr.
Berglund enumerated.
Chairman Stockmar opened the hearing up to public c omment. No public
comment was provided.
Mr. Gillette discussed the zoning of the property. The commission
disc ussed open space and zoning with the applicant and Planner Spence.
Ms. Perez stated regarding the zoning it was meant to be space available
to the public and stated the applic ant has created this issue. She noted
that it feels like the open spac e is part of the community. Ms. Perez stated
that she disagrees with Mr. Berglund’s analysis of the proposal meeting the
required five criteria.
Ms. Baker clarified that the spac e has never been publicly open spac e
and has always been a private lot.
There was a discussion regarding what development c an occ ur in open
space zone distric ts.
There was a discussion over how the spac e be preserved to open air and
light in the future.
Ms. Perez pointed out where existing trees will be removed from the street
to ac commodate the proposed tower. Ms. Perez stated this will deteriorate
open spac e, air and light. There was a disc ussion over where existing
trees will be removed. Tower would go to corner of where the existing
fenc e is, 60’ high.
Mr. Gillette inquired if the building could be built without the rezoning. Mr.
Spenc e stated no, it could not.
Mr. Stockmar stated they are conc erned about massing, height, and the
fenc e along the south side of the property.

3.4.A request for the review of varianc es from Section 12-6D -9-6 Setbacks,
Vail Town Code, in acc ordance with the provisions of Section 12-17-1,
Variances, Vail Town Code, to allow for variances to the front setbac k of 20
feet to fac ilitate the redevelopment of both east and west units, located at
706 Forest Road Units A & B/Lot 9, Vail Village Filing 6, and setting forth
details in regard thereto. (P EC19-00010)
20 min.
Applicant:Paul & D anita Ostling, represented by Mauriello Planning Group
Planner:Ashley Clark
Planner Clark introduc ed the application, which was tabled from a past
meeting. The varianc e on the west side is no longer in the application.
Staff rec ommendation from the previous meeting stands, which is to
rec ommend denial.
Allison Kent, Mauriello Planning Group – She read a statement from the
owner ’s representative, who c ould not attend the meeting. She desc ribed
the property location at 706 Forest Road, and presented images of the
property. The application required several public hearings when it was
originally built. Ms. K ent desc ribed the history of the lot and c onstruc tion,
inc luding being built with a 10’ setback. Variances were obtained for the
original construction. All variances on the west side unit have been
eliminated with the applic ation.
Ms. Kent described the variances on the east side. The front entry was
May 21, 2019 - Page 23 of 114
reloc ated to the sec ond level. Also, a roof pitch change is proposed. She
described the revised plans, and showed a comparison to the previous
application. She showed how the existing home currently sits over the front
setbac k.
Adam Harrison – Existing front setback is about 3 feet on east side.
Ms. Kent – Stair is proposed 3.9 feet from property line. W e are also
removing GRFA from the setbac k area (70 square feet). She showed a
comparison of the existing GRFA within the setback, and as proposed with
this application.
Ms. Kent – Presented written letters of support from neighboring property
owners. She then reviewed the criteria for a variance in the existing Town
Code. She focused on criteria #2, “to ac hieve compatibility and uniformity
of treatment”. She reviewed other elements of the site that make this
property unique. S he reviewed other sites in the P rimary/Sec ondary zone
distric t with steep slopes. Ms. Kent showed a map analysis of lots in the
Primary/Secondary zone district with the steep slopes layer on. Ms. Kent
argued that this lot was one of the only lots in the distric t that had steep
slopes extending all the way to the front of the property line. She further
illustrated that the steep slopes lay er for an overwhelming majority of the
lots remains at the rear of the lot and does not extend to the front.
Ms. Clark – Explained why staff foc used on the uniqueness of the site,
and that the applic ant needs to be treated differently to be treated the
same. Ms. Clark noted that the map analy sis was helpful in demonstrating
the uniqueness of this lot.
Ms. Perez – W hy is it nec essary to have the entranc e on the sec ond
floor?
Ms. Kent – The site is so steep we are try ing to get people into the living
level without going through the garage.
Ms. Perez- Please explain again whic h side is being demolished, and
which is remodeled. A lso please explain the overhang variance.
Ms. Kent – Showed examples of other homes built with front setback
variances.
Public Comment – None
Mr. Kjesbo – I n favor of the variance. They have done a good job reduc ing
and eliminating varianc es. They are eliminating square footage on the east
unit. I will support
Mr. Gillett – I support the variance. I t’s a very steep lot and deserves a
variance.
Mr. Kurz – Agree with K jesbo. W ithin reason, the applic ant had c ome
close to not meeting a varianc e, but with c hanges in favor of the variance.
Ms. Perez – Pleased with reducing the number of varianc es. You have
also minimized the degree of the variance. Site is a steep lot. Previous
conc erns were with the other side of the lot. I ’m normally not in favor of
variances, but in favor of this due to the c hanges.
May 21, 2019 - Page 24 of 114
Ms. Hopkins – I n y our favor is that the road is so far. Those lots were built
in the 70s and 80s, and for cost reasons were built this way.
Mr. Stockmar – Agree with other C ommissioners and issues raised. Laud
the applic ant for making a substantial effort to revise plans. The slide
showing the steepness of lots in the area helped to c onvince me. This is a
very steep lot.
Karen Perez moved to approve. Brian Gillette seconded the motion and it

With the evolution of the Education and Enrichment funds overlapping with Council Contribution
funding requests, staff is seeking feedback from Council on the topic of multiple requests
coming to the town. Staff does not recommend removing these service organizations from the
Council Contribution process, as the annual funding is more secure from year to year and
counted on by these non-profits. However, if the Council Contributions require that funds be
used for programming rather than operating, should these organizations be precluded from
applying to both Town Council and the CSE?

support provided to a variety of non-profits. The “Service” category non-profits are indicated as
such.
While Council’s previous discussions on this topic remained supportive of funding these
organizations, there is a desire for increased accountability and clear identification of what the
funds will be used for rather than the more general operating expenses.
An annual re-cap or report out of what the funds were used for could be provided in one of three
ways:
A re-cap to Town Council
A re-cap to the Commission on Special Events, or
A written re-cap to accompany the upcoming year’s funding request as part of the
annual application process
Funding requests for the 2020 budget cycle are due to the town by June 30th.
IV. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL
1. Does Council wish to change the current contribution policy for Service organizations?
2. Does Council want to require an application to be flied with the town as part of the
annual budget process?
3. If the funding for Service organizations changes from operating to programming, should
funding requests be consolidated with one application to the Town Council?
4. Does Council agree with a re-cap report once the funding is used? If yes, which of the
three options should be implemented?

TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: May 21, 2019
SUBJECT: Discussion of the Holy Cross Energy PuRE Program: 100% Renewable Energy for Town
of Vail Electricity
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this discussion is to the Holy Cross Energy PuRE program, Powered by 100%
Renewable Energy, for all Town of Vail electric accounts.
II. BACKGROUND
The Town of Vail’s Environmental Sustainability Strategic Plan, adopted by the Vail Town
Council in 2009, includes Goal #2, “Reduce the Town of Vail municipal and community energy
use by 20% below 2006 levels by 2020, in order to effectively reduce the Town’s contribution to
greenhouse gas emissions and impact on global climate change. In 2006, the town’s total
carbon emissions were approximately 12,000 lbs. CO2e, and today are approximately 10,440
lbs CO2e, a 13% reduction due to the town’s facility-wide energy efficiency project, despite the
significant increase of snowmelted areas. However, in order to reach the 20% by 2020 and 80%
by 2050 carbon emissions reduction goal, a large-scale renewable energy purchase is required.
In order to achieve a full emissions offset of town operations including the snowmelt system,
staff will return to the Vail Town Council with additional options for consideration later this
summer.
Vail Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory
CLEER further broke down the County inventory by
community. Vail’s greenhouse gas emissions are
comparably higher than other communities, due to
high impact from the ski industry, guests, snowmelt
and transportation. With a low population but high
guest attendance, per capita emissions are skewed.

Holy Cross Energy will present the PuRE program, an energy offset program where members
may purchase renewable energy for a premium at a rate of $.00076/kWh for wind, $.0107/kWh
for hydroelectric power, and $.01222/kWh for solar. Since HCE is currently supplied by 39%
renewable energy, members are only responsible for the remaining 61% to offset their bills with
renewable energy. Members may choose the renewable energy source which tracks with
electricity bills.

kWh 2018 100% Wind 100% Hydro 100% Solar
4,643,782 $35,293 $49,688.47 $56,654.14
So far, other communities and organizations in the Climate Action Collaborative including
Basalt, Eagle County, Eagle River Water and Sanitation District, Snowmass Village, and
Carbondale have adopted to select either 100% solar, 100% wind, or a combination of the
sources. The premium purchase prices are based upon the wholesale rate Holy Cross Energy
pays for the power, and each has its advantages. Wind has a higher capacity factor and
compliments daytime solar use. Wind is also the least expensive product, but is not necessarily
in the state of Colorado, where new solar contracts will include those developed in-state. Hydro
Power is purchased through Wester Area Power Association (WAPA), made up of 19 different
hydro-electric projects in the state.
IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Vail Town Council support participation in the PuRE program via
resolution, adding $36,000 (estimated based on last 12 months kWh usage) to the supplemental
budget for wind power for all electric accounts associated with Town of Vail municipal
operations. Ordinance No. 7, Series of 2019, Supplemental Budget and Resolution No. 23,
Series of 2019, Resolution Pledging 100% Renewable Energy for Town of Vail Municipal
Electricity are scheduled during the evening meeting of May 21st for consideration and formal
action.

Make a Commitment to
Carbon Free Electricity
PuRE allows our members to
have 100% of their electricity
sourced from renewable
resources.
This program allows members to
be net-zero without installing
solar or while their own
renewable resources are being
developed.
May 21, 2019 - Page 34 of 114
Our Power Supply today
is 39% Renewable
Therefore, members are only
responsible for purchasing the
remaining 61% to offset their
usage with renewable energy and
become a 100% clean energy user.
May 21, 2019 - Page 35 of 114
How it works:
Members may purchase energy from
multiple clean sources:
•Wind @ $.0076 / kWh
•Hydro @ $.0107 / kWh
•Solar @ $.0122 / kWh
The PuRE surcharge will be added as a
line item on members’ bills based on
their over-all energy usage.
* These costs are discounted 39% to
take into account HCE’s 39% renewable
power supply.
May 21, 2019 - Page 36 of 114
The WE CARE Fund With Efficiency, Conservation And Renewable Energy (We Care) –
we can make a world of difference. Revenues from the PuRE program will be allocated to our We Care fund.
Our We Care program is a carbon reduction strategy designed to slow the growth of CO2 emissions created in the generation of electricity for our members.
This fund supports our energy efficiency rebate program and helps develop renewable resources for the HCE system and its members.

A Collaborative Built for Action.
The Climate Action Plan (CAP), formalized in 2016,
was the catalyst that brought our community together
to look at how we can systematically address the
problem of global climate change through local actions
and initiatives. Since then, stakeholders from around the
community participated in the founding of the Climate
Action Collaborative for the Eagle County Community.
The Collaborative’s mission is to carry out the carbon
pollution reduction goals laid out in the CAP, which calls
for a 25% reduction by 2025, and an 80% reduction by
2050.
The Collaborative is organized into working groups
each focused on a diff erent impact area; energy supply,
building energy use, materials and waste, transportation,
and community education. In 2018 each working group
developed initiatives to reduce climate pollution in their
respective sectors.
ENERGY SUPPLY Support Holy Cross Energy’s
goals to increase renewable electricity developments
BUILDINGS Expand the reach of local energy
effi ciency and renewable energy programs
TRANSPORTATION Install infrastructure for EVs,

EDUCATION Share success stories in our
community that support behavior change
The engagement and collaboration between businesses,
municipalities, and the County, has demonstrated we
are better able to leverage collective resources when
we work together. Through several successful initiatives,
we are moving the needle on local carbon pollution, and
have created a climate of excitement and engagement
from the community that has been an inspiration to all
those involved.

The Climate Action Plan
for the Eagle County Community was created
based on a 2014 greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory
for our community. The GHG inventory is a
report detailing the source of all greenhouse gas
emissions in our community. The 2014 GHG
inventory and Climate Action Plan can be found on
ClimateActionCollaborative.org.
CARBON
EMISSION
REDUCTION
GOAL
The 2014 GHG Inventory gave our community the
information it needed to begin to tackle climate change
on a local level. Using the inventory as a guide, the
Climate Action Plan was written to specifi cally address
emissions in the diff erent sectors of our community.
The goal in the plan for emissions reductions, is a 25%
reduction by 2025 and 80% reduction by 2050.
The 2050 target is in alignment with the recent
recommendation of the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change (IPCC, 2014) which is meant to limit
emissions in order to keep the planet’s average global
warming below 2 degree Celsius warming.
This climate action plan is specifi cally focused on
mitigation. Climate mitigation is defi ned as eff orts that
reduce or prevent GHG emissions. Climate adaptation
is defi ned as eff orts that help the community prepare
for and adjust to the current and future impacts of
climate change. Although this plan does not specifi cally
address climate adaptation, other eff orts are being taken
throughout the Eagle County community to prepare for
the changing climate. The Climate Action Plan was the
cornerstone of the Climate Action Collaborative eff orts
in 2018.
The strategies outlined below are called out within the Climate Action Plan as the top strategies our community
could implement to immediately reduce local carbon emissions. In the fi rst few years of the Climate Action Plan
being adopted, we have already completed many of these strategies and are actively working on others. Those
highlighted in yellow have not yet started, but are future considerations as the Collaborative as we work towards
achieving our emission reduction goals.
““If we achieve a 25% reduction
in GHG emissions by 2025,
we will retain $60 million
annually in the local economy.

Survey Results
In 2018 the Climate Action Collaborative asked the
Eagle County community to participate in a Climate
Action survey to understand the attitude on climate
change locally. The survey asked community members
to comment on the sustainability actions they already
participate in and what future sustainability eff orts
they would be in support of. The results of this survey
demonstrate that our community is to act on climate
change and is supportive of local eff orts to do so!� �� �� �� �� ��������������May 21, 2019 - Page 43 of 114
Climate Action Collaborative
2018 Impact Report
Achieving our Climate Action Plan goals requires on-
going tracking of efforts to reduce local greenhouse gas
emissions. In 2018, we tracked the impact of four local
sustainability programs and initiatives, Actively Green
Business Certification Program, EnergySmart Energy
Assistance Program, Sole Power the Green Commuter
Challege, and LED Swaps, an initiative through the
Collaborative. These four programs are publically
available sustainability programs in the Eagle Valley that
address sustainability in both residences and businesses.
Check out our total impact for 2018!
The Climate Action Collaborative Partners launched
and or participated in many emission reduction activities
throughout the year. A few were tracked for emission
reduction reporting, while others impact were not able
to be quantified. A few of those efforts that were not
able to be quantified have been included here to show
the full impact of the Collaboratives’ work in 2018. In
addition, the following pages include highlights of other
carbon emission reduction work done by Collaborative
partners in 2018. In future years, the Climate Action
Collaborative will work towards creating a system to
monitor year after year emission reductions in order
to report on progress against our Climate Action Plan
goals.

Climate Action Collaborative
2019 Priorities
The Climate Action Collaborative’s working groups are
made up of stakeholders from around the County who
are subject matter experts in their respective sectors.
The working groups of the Collaborative act as an
incubator for ideas on how the community can work
together to achieve our greenhouse gas reduction goals,
by implementing projects that are above and beyond
what a single stakeholder entity could accomplish on its
own. Moving into 2019, here are the top priorities of the
Collaborative’s five working groups.
1 Finish First/Last Mile Study to identify and address
barriers to using the bus. Create capital plan to implement
changes.
2 Work with Town of Avon to improve the Zagster Bike
Share program
3 Recommend regulations and ordinances for towns to
adopt that regulate dockless bike shares and set rules for
electric-assist bikes and scooters.
4 Set a goal for bus ridership and utilize ECO Transit
upgrades to promote the bus.
1 Promote Construction & Demolition pilot program
2 Increase public area recycling access
3 Develop textiles recycling program
4 Continue education and outreach on recycling and
composting
5 Consider materials bans at the landfill (ex, cardboard)
6 Provide yard waste/compost drop sites in each
municipality
1 Maintain constant presence in local publications, the Vail
Daily, and Vail Valley HOME Magazine
2 Provide stakeholders quarterly updates on Collaborative
work through e-newsletters
3 Implement a behavior change
campaign on the behavior
identified to have the biggest
impact on emissions
4 Continue education and outreach in schools and look for
meaningful ways to engage the youth in sustainability
5 Continue to engage with the Spanish-speaking population
of Eagle County to ensure equity in sustainability
opportunities promoted by the Collaborative
EDUCATION + OUTREACH
ENERGY SUPPLY
1 Continue to promote rooftop solar adoption with the help
of Holy Cross
2 Work with Holy Cross to make the Renewable Purchasing
Program easier to understand to encourage more local
participation in the program
3 Support and provide assistance to Collaborative
stakeholders pursuing 100% renewable energy goals
4 Support and expand efforts for decarbonization through
electrification of building stock

Renewable Energy Credits were identified as
the top behaviors that would have the largest
eect on carbon emissions.
* GHG reported in lbs of
CO2E per household in
Eagle County, per day
In 2018 the Collaborative created an impact analysis
of sustainability behaviors every Eagle County resident
could do that would lower their personal carbon
footprint. The pounds of CO2 avoided by each behavior
were calculated based on specifi c conditions in Eagle
County.
In 2019, the Collaborative will begin a Behavior Change
Campaign to engage our community in a cultural
change around sustainability behaviors. By identifying
barriers and benefi ts to each behavior, we can fi nd
creative means of incentivizing or encouraging people
to adopt diff erent behaviors that will help us signifi cantly
reduce emissions. As shown through our community
survey, many of our community members think local
governments need to act on climate change. However,
we can realize that, as individuals, we have a chance to
make a diff erence in emissions through small changes in
our day-to-day behaviors.
Transportation is slowly growing as the biggest source of
emissions in Eagle County and will take a huge e ort to
change the culture in our community of driving single-
occupancy vehicles.
Through Stakeholder meetings, the Collaborative
decided to focus our eff orts on a large-scale carpooling
behavior change campaign. However, changing behavior
around carpooling may have ripple eff ects on people’s
attitude towards commuting, infl uencing them to try
other commuting options such as public transit, biking,
and walking.
*The graph to the right shows only the carbon emission impact of each behavior
and does not include the considerations for penetration, applicability, and
probability.

2. Change in Emissions by Sector, 2014 - 2017Metric tons of CO2e
Greenhouse gas emissions divided on a percapita basis are higher in Eagle Countythan the U.S. and Colorado. Contributingfactors are transportation, second homesand lodging. See the Appendix in the 2014 Inventory foran explanation of the impact of sporadicallyoccupied second homes on per capitaenergy use.
Chart 3 shows emissions by usesector. Char t 4 shows emissions byfuel source. The residential andcommercial-industrial sectorscontribute the largest percentage ofemissions in the county. By fuel,electricity is the largest share ofemissions, followed by gasoline anddiesel fuels for transportation.
Eagle County Energy Inventor y2017 data on energy use, costs and emissions
Greenhouse gas emissions from energy use in EagleCounty in 2017 totaled 1.28 million metric tons of carbondioxide equivalent (CO2e). This is a reduction of 59,900metric tons compared to 2014, a 4% reduction.This reduction in emissions comes primarily in theelectricity sector, which was reduced by 27%. Eagle Countyusers consumed 2% less electricity, and Holy Cross Energyincreased renewables on the grid from 20.3% in 2014 to39% in 2017. Natural gas usage in buildings remained about the sameas 2014. (See note page 4.) As the electricity sector
improves, efforts will need to focus onreducing natural gas usage in homes,businesses and governments.Transportation emissions increased and the largest sectoris still passenger vehicles, par ticularly SUVs and trucks.Reduction ef forts need to focus on increased ridership ontransit and increasing the adoption of electric vehicles. Solid waste in Eagle County is currently diver ted at a rate of15%, leaving lots of opportunities for increased diversionefforts. In order to reduce emissions at the landfill,diversion effor ts need to focus primarily on food waste.

Chart 10. To calculate motor vehicle energy use, theresearch team determined the best available methodwas to use Colorado Department of Transportationtraffic statistics for Eagle County. CDOT data does notinclude county roads or city streets. Because of thismissing information, this inventory’s estimate isinherently conser vative and very likely anunderestimate of total transpor tation energy use. Because of the economic importance of I-70 to theregion for destination traffic, the high percentage oflocal traffic on I-70, and the built-in underestimationdue to missing city street traffic, the research teamchose to include 100 percent of I-70 traffic along withU.S. Highway 6 data to represent the county’s totalvehicle miles traveled.

Char t 12. Eagle County’stransportation emissions and fuel useare consistent with transpor tationemissions across the U.S. Within the transportation sector, light-duty vehicles (including passengercars and light-duty trucks) are thelargest category, responsible for 60percent of emissions. Medium- andheavy-duty trucks made up the secondlargest category, with 23 percent ofemissions. Between 1990 and 2016, emissionsnationwide in the transpor tation sectorincreased more in absolute terms thanany other sector (i.e. electricitygeneration, industr y, agriculture,residential, or commercial).
Chart 13. The Eagle CountyLandfill received 84,022 tons ofdisposed waste in 2017.An audit of incoming wasteconducted in 2017 shows theproportion of waste types. Basedon these percentages, incomingwaste to the landfill produces81,194 tons of CO2e per year.Organic material left todecompose in the landfill is theprimary source of solid wasteemissions.
Increased diversion ef for ts canreduce solid waste emissions. Efforts should focus on reducingfood waste and paper waste. Whencombined, these two sources are55% of the weighted average ofdisposed materials at the landfill.The diversion rate in 2017 was15%. The statewide averagediversion rate is 12%. Someneighboring counties do better.Routt County has a diversion rateof 24%, and Pitkin County diver ts40%.

Energy Inventory Protocol
The Eagle County Energy Inventor y quantifiestotal energy use, costs and carbon emissionsby sector and by fuel and utility source, using2014 as the baseline year and adding newdata from 2017. The inventory’s purpose is to understand howand where energy is used and emissions aregenerated. With this information in hand,each energy-using sectors can identifyopportunities to increase efficiency, reduceemissions and reduce costs. This inventory complies with the U.S.Community Protocol for Accounting andReporting of GHG Emissions (USCP). At leastfive emission-generating activities must beincluded for an inventor y to be USCPcompliant. This inventory surveys fiveactivities: residential energy, commercialenergy, vehicles, aviation and the landfill.

Dear Vail Town Council;
I would like to be considered for the vacancy on the Vail Local Housing Authority. I believe my
professional work experience, along with my education has provided me the needed skills and
knowledge to offer unique insights within our local housing sector.
Currently, I’m one of two Employee Housing Managers for Vail Mountain. I oversee all employee
housing units for Vail Resorts within Vail. These properties include First Chair Apartments, Master Lease
at Timber Ridge, Master lease at Middle Creek and all our East Vail Condos. In total, I manage 427 beds
that house the local workforce.
I would also consider myself in touch with our community as I have volunteered/supported local non-
profits the last two years in Vail and also have publicly advocated for additional local workforce housing
to the Town Council in past town hall meetings. Standing up and speaking directly to the Town Council
in March 2019.
I also feel it’s worth mentioning I have Board of Director experience as I served two different terms for a
non-profit organization with nearly 500 members prior to moving to Colorado. Serving a one year term
as a Communications Secretary and a two year term as Vice President of the organization.
With my role with Vail Resorts and our Employee Housing Department; I’m always advocating and
pushing for a stronger set policy regarding our housing needs and to stay aligned with our housing vision
and strategy; always recommending to my leadership my thoughts, ideas and proposals about housing.
I’m here to offer VLHA my time and energy in improving the Town of Vail housing initiatives and long-
term goals. My hope is that I’m considered as a candidate for this vacancy.

Presenter: Andrew Knudtsen and David Schwartz
EPS Consultants Andrew Knudtsen, David Schwartz and Julia Jones presented a
power point update via conference call which represents draft data on the resident
housing investment.
The draft report includes the addition of resident in housing, workers, households,
businesses. Increase local household spending and fiscal impact, commuting
reduction, and carbon emissions, increased resident engagement in community.
Potential for increase in local business revenue when there are not unfilled
positions. Quantifies reduced cost associated with work turn over. Town’s
reduced investment for local parking solutions. Most qualitative is enhanced guest
services. This especially is coming through interviews EPS has performed.
Metrics presented are what EPS sees as the most important. Knudtsen said these
metrics represent the stories that will speak to the bullets represented on the
power point presentation. EPS would like to provide metrics over time.
According to EPS research thus far wage level premiums are not being paid but
are incurring costs for unfilled positions, primarily in the form of lost revenue and
overtime paid.
Lindstrom asked about the Town’s investment. What does it look like coming back
to the Town? We hear about this all time from other programs. For instance, retail
tax collected how does it come back to Town.
ROI will be shown in the central impact metrics when analysis is completed. EPS
said this is a great metric to use.
Commuting data has been updated from QCW from the State of Colorado. It was
noted through Investment in resident housing the CO2 emissions have been
offset.
EPS would like to continue meeting via conference calls prior to presenting to
Council. The Board agreed.
Lindstrom asked if there is a way to include how housing can add vitality into
mixed use, high density core areas, i.e. the civic area plan currently under review.
Knudtsen said the civic area public feedback from community has shown mixed
support, there has been push back on housing.
Next steps, EPS will forward updated draft power point report to the Housing
Department. EPS will be added to the May 14th meeting.

4. Ford Park Art Space Discussion – Todd Oppenheimer, TOV Capital Projects Manager
Molly updates the board about several meetings with Kathy, Kara, and Todd to discuss the Ford Park
Art Space and the revision of the uses, needs, and assessments for the spa ce. She reminds the
board of discussions with Harry Teague Architects (HTA) over the past several months. They have a
lot of experience repurposing older structures into working artist spaces including Anderson Ranch.
They were also involved in the master planning of the Breckenridge Creative Arts District. Molly
shares the qualifications and proposal submitted by HTA , as well as their outlined scope of services.
We are awaiting a revision of the scope of services, as we have narrowed down some of the
preliminary deliverables in a recent telephone conversation with Jeffrey from HTA. Todd explains we
would enter into a short-form consultant contract for a project like this one. The conversation with
Jeffrey from HTA went very well and they have also invited AIPP to visit and t our their offices and
Anderson Ranch. They feel it is a pretty straight forward project and would be enthusiastic to
participate. Todd mentions it would be a “not to exceed” contract. Kathy and Bill comment the
proposal is more than what should be necessary for this building. Margaret comments that we don’t
know what is possible at this point, so we should consider HTA’s scope of work in other similar
spaces. She thinks we need to look at the potential scope of the building itself and what is possible
with the space and adjoining area. Kathy remarks that she believes we should keep the basic building
as an open space, add a bathroom/sink, and not to go too far beyond the footprint. She remarks that
there is space adjoining the building which may provide potential room for expansion in the future.
Todd discusses the needs for assessing the condition of the building and foundation. We are asking
HTA to put their professional seal on this preliminary examination stage which is a very thorough
scope of work. Kathy asks about using a local structural engineer. Susan remarks in her recent
Council interview, she thinks it is important we show that this space can be more than what it is at
present. She is impressed with HTA’s work at Anderson Ranch and we should work with them on a
forward looking vision. Molly remarks that we are in receipt of $50,000 from EW Partners towards the
Art Space as a part of their mitigation for Manor Vail. She explains that we are in the process of the
budget supplemental, so we need to have this project in motion in order to have these funds
allocated. She will be meeting with the Town Manager on Wednesday to bring him up to date on the
May 21, 2019 - Page 102 of 114
Art Space project. We need to get the package and potential designs working with HTA as a team.
We would then go forward on estimated costs for construction. We could assign some of AIPPs
budget towards the building, but ultimately would need to request for funding the project/facility from
Council once the board has a recommendation for design direction. What we do not use from the EW
donation in design costs can be rolled into construction costs for the building. Todd explains it would
be two or three architectural approaches to the building. He says the first step is to examine the
structure itself and see what is possible. Kathy wants to be mindful about how far away the structural
engineer would be traveling. Margaret remarks that the structural engineer is ultimately responsible
for how the building is addressed. Trish would like to define our vision once we determine the viability
of the building. Kathy explains we have only discussed the uses of the space as it exists. If we are to
expand it there needs to be uses for the building. Julie asks Kathy what she would charge. She would
recommend getting a local structural engineer and review those reports to decide next steps. Todd
remarks that there is advantage to having the architect bring on the structural engineer. He further
explains it is the architect who is handling the project with an engineer with whom they have a
working relationship. The work is then under one entity rather than trying to merge two separate
teams. Todd explains in capital projects we have one primary firm in charge of our facilities during
construction who then hires their subcontractors. Bill thinks we should look at these preliminary
structural steps with HTA and break down the early costs. Molly comments we are hoping to have the
VRD clear out their items in May. We need to have access around the building as well, so we would
be looking at late Spring/early Summer ideally. Todd recommends to structure the contract to have
milestones with our ability to get out of the contract at any point. It would be for only hours spent.
Margaret asks if we can get pricing on structural engineers. Todd mentions we can certainly do that,
but we should also discuss this with HTA to see wh om they recommend as well. Molly asks the board
if they feel comfortable with the project, so we can go forward with the supplemental. Julie likes
approaching the project into a series of phases. Bill moves to allow a contract with HTA up to 16
hours for them to coordinate with a structural engineer who is mutually acceptable to them and the
TOV. The board approves unanimously.
4. Summer Mural Programming Update
Molly shares a mock-up mural design from Kelsey Montague with the board. She asks for feedback
from the board and explains that the artist may want to reconsider the composition and layout once
on-site. Kelsey is also now working on a youtube series about her work. She would like to have the
film crew capture her mural in Vail. Molly has reached out to the Economic Dev. director to see if
there might be marketing funds available for the shoot. Overall the board responds positively to the
mock-up. Kathy comments that maybe it is one larger porch swing versus two. Molly comments that
typically a regular summer program is budgeted @ $20,000. The initial proposals by the other artists
were way beyond what the board feels was a reasonable estimate. Now that we have negotiated with
the other summer artists we are still over a typical summer budget. Giving clear direction to Pat
Milbery we now have a more reasonable budget with them at $16,000 for the two locations. Kathy
asks to explain which spaces are now being painted in the revised proposal. The VV ground level –
wall on the far side using the central focal point. It is all interior. He discussed having splashes of
color leading up to the mural. Molly is concerned it may dilute the mural. The LH location is the
interior space of the eastern ground level including some of the ceiling area. Molly remarks that she
mentioned Bill’s point of cleaning up the space to Greg Hall – it would be from a facilities request.
After a call with Pedro Barrios he agreed the outside area of the LH entrance is going to have
maintenance issues and he would suggest painting the protected area of the entrance. The board
motions to enter into two contracts with Pat Milbery and Pedro Barrios for the two locations as
discussed.

5. Civic Plan Update – Matt Gennett, Community Development Director
Matt is present to meet and update the board on the Civic Plan. Molly reminds the board that the
questions to Matt today should be focused on the public art integration and feed back within the Civic
Plan. This condensed update today will be presented in its entirety tomorrow at Town Council.
https://www.engagevail.com/civic-area-master-plan/news_feed/update-to-town-council-tuesday-april-
2nd-first-look-at-possibilities-for-civic-area
Margaret asks if there is a line item for public art. Molly reminds the board typically1% of original
construction costs is allocated towards the integration of public art in TOV capital projects. Matt
reiterates to the board we are in the preliminary exploration stages of the Civic Area Plan. Matt
remarks that art is important in these civic spaces and that there was indeed positive feedback
regarding the integration of public art within the Civic Area Plan. Margaret comments that this plan
could be the fulfillment for the location of destination art within Vail. Matt responds that as we move
forward these locations can be identified within the plan.
6. Ava Cunningham/VMS student – Presentation of Senior Project Internship with AIPP
Ava has been working with Molly on several projects as a part of her senior internship. She has been
posted in the offices at Public Works to write about our summer programs, and the RSES Garage
public art. She has also attended meetings - including the Community Meeting and a brainstorming
session on Stephen’s Park. As a part of Ava’s project, Molly created an RFP for her to submit the
requirements to be considered to paint a utility/transformer box on TOV property. Today Ava will
present her qualifications for consideration to the board for this project. (RFP attached.) Ava presents
her letter of interest, resume, and annotated list of images followed by her portfolio for consideration.
Ava explains for her summer project, she wanted to learn about public art and the process. She
wanted to learn about the administration side, as well as the perspective from an artist. She
proposes 5 design concepts based around nature and landscapes for the two transformer locati ons
within Ford Park. Molly explains that we will focus on painting one box, as the projects do take longer
than anticipated. Kathy likes the interplay of the texture and colors of the aspen forest down by the
bridge. Margaret agrees that the trees would work well by the amphitheater, but likes the mountains
and the fields of flowers for the top of WBFW. Bill agrees. The board likes the aspen forest as the
design for her transformer box. The board compliments Ava on a well done presentation and looks
forward to seeing her work this summer.

7. Art for Clubhouse – Review & consideration of work proposed by Margaret Thompson
Molly explains there are several remaining sites we previously identified within the Clubhouse suitable
for art - including the first floor foyer, second floor corridor, areas within the shop and perhaps the
stairwell. These areas are quite sparse and empty at this time. The subcommittee hopes to address
these spaces in the next few months before the summer event season. We need to wait for the
budget to be supplemented in May, but there is approximately $50,000 remaining for various
enhancements within the Clubhouse. She reminds the board of the stakeholders and multipurpose
uses within the space. While it has been a slow process, we have been able to see how the building
functions with these users over the past several seasons. She reminds the board that the VRD
requested the photographic ephemera and Gerry Ford Tournament posters which we reproduced,
framed, and installed over the past several months in the grill area. We now would like to address
these other common areas within the clubhouse especially the ground floor entrance. Julie comments
it is a very angular and linear space. Molly, Kara, and Julie met with a young artist Margaret
Thompson who is from Texas, but lives between Avon & Boulder. She creates lyrical wall sculptures
inspired by fungi. She brought one of her sculptures to the clubhouse, so we could see how it
interplayed on this downstairs wall which the board had directed we look towa rds scatter art as a way
to work around the vent and utility box ¾ into the wall. We initially wanted to utilize the wall in its
entirety where a single 2-D work may be challenging. Margaret Thompson’s sculpture helps the
angular nature of the space being much more organic and undulating. She is a talented and
dedicated young artist who is very astute to the patinas and materials of her sculptures. Any
installation would be driven by the stud locations within the wall given the weight of the works. She
has given us some concepts for a scatter arrangement of the various sizes. Molly explains it is the
same cast, but various sizes. The reflection of light gives a lot of depth and dimension to her
sculptures. Kathy thinks it is spectacular, but would be concerned about repetition. Julie comments
that seeing it against the wall was quite lovely. Margaret R. wants to make sure it would be secure to
the wall. Molly thinks that having larger works on the wall would be safer than numerous smaller
works. Molly would not recommend going larger than the size which is 30 pounds. We can look at the
wall downstairs or even the wall in the corridor as possible locations. Molly suggests staying in the
realm of budget per wall once the monies are approved. Margaret T. is working on pricing from
foundries and is experimenting with a resin material which would have a marble like presence. Once
we get the budget finalized, we can then identify how much to invest in each location. At that point,
we can get a better idea from Margaret T. what might be feasible within our budget. Molly informs the
board that there is an edition in a different patina at Terra Bistro where she did a live demonstration.
Julie remarks that it is very high quality and to view the work at T erra Bistro. Julie explains that we
have been looking at emerging artists for the space given the budget. Kathy asks whether a mural
might work in the space and Molly explains we have that in mind for a location within the shop. Trish
asks the board to look at the work at Terra Bistro before inviting the artist to present again and before
our next meeting. She does not feel effusive about the work. Susan would be curious to see the resin

material. We have considered several possibilities for the space, so Molly welcomes t he board to
share any thoughts or artists to review before the next meeting. Julie reminds the board that this is an
update from the clubhouse sub-committee and we do need to get moving on the spaces. She
comments that this is a walk-through space and we need to be mindful about how much we invest in
each particular space.
8. Coordinator Updates
Red Sandstone Garage Public Art Update – We are working with new contractors who have
been in touch with the artist. We are working on a schedule for installation.
Stickwork condition & stabilization review after the snow accumulation this winter. Molly has
had conversations with Pat and his son Sam is coming out April 21 to assess the structure.
10th Mountain Sculpture. The sculpture will be removed for conservation mid-April. We will
have it reinstalled mid-June after construction of Slifer Plaza.
Cloudscape – many chimes are missing. Molly has requested the artist Robert Tully to
engineer a better design.
Annual repairs & maintenance operational budget: $3,888. Molly explains the restoration of the
10th Mt. Soldier is long overdue which is why we will need to access other monies from the
budget. It has only been cleaned in the past 10 years. It has gone for conservation off site at
least once in the past. The proposal for conservation was previously approved by the board.
Last art walk on Wednesday @ 7 – 12 attendees per walk
9. Other Matters from the Board
Trish requests to have a better understanding of budget because she is a “big picture”
person. She thinks it will be helpful to periodically to look at a spreadsheet and funding
sources. She comments that our job is spending money and would like to have better
orientation of budget in relation to AIPPs’ goals. Julie agrees and volunteers to create a pie
chart or spreadsheet of the budget. Molly comments that budget is always discussed in our
projects and it is transparent in the process from capital projects to temporary programs.
She hopes that the board is clear on the differences between what has been defined as
destination art with larger budgets – similar to Patrick Dougherty’s Stickwork – versus
annual summer/winter programs. AIPP is funded through the Real Estate Transfer Tax @
$85,000 annually. We do have an operational budget which is utilized first. What is not
spent with the annual budget is rolled forward for the accumulation of a budget to
accommodate the defined destination art installations within our mission. Molly reminds the
board that she fundraised $18,000 towards the winter programs and received a monetary
donation to pay for the installation of the Lawrence Weiner. Margaret remarks that the
budget comes out in October and that is when AIPP should review it. She does not think it
needs to be addressed at every meeting. If board members have specific questions then
they should address it specifically to Molly. Molly can request our administrator have a
spreadsheet with details of expenditures for discussion at one of our meetings af ter the
supplemental process. Molly comments that if board members are confused they need to
address it during the meetings, as an explanation will be provided and recorded in the
minutes for reference. Kathy comments that from her experience she understan ds the
budget process, but it seems clear several board members do not. Molly comments that
Greg Hall has come to past meetings explaining the budget, but perhaps members were
not present. She comments that the town attorney also comes to meetings to explain roles
and responsibilities for serving on the board.

The Ford Park Transformer Public Art project parameters:
• The artwork that is included on the application must resemble the art that will be painted on the box.
• Because the size of the box may vary slightly, be prepared to adjust your artwork to the size of the
box.
• The Town of Vail, or its contractors, must have access to the components in the box at all times.
• Some boxes may have locks and control panels that will have to be remain free of any art image.
• Artists may want to block off the box to keep the public from brushing against wet paint, b ut care
should be given to leave at least five (5) feet of the sidewalk open for pedestrians and compliance
with ADA requirements.
• When washing or painting the box, it should be done in a manner that no moisture gets inside the
box through any vents. There are sensitive electronic components in the box.
• The vents should not be covered so as not to restrict airflow from the cabinet. Ventilation keeps the
box from overheating.
• Door hinges should be painted so as to not lock the door in place.
• The levers/handles/keyholes on the boxes should not have any coating over them.
• Artwork using a majority of dark colors cannot be considered due to the potential for overheating of
the utility boxes.
Painting & Materials:
Artists are responsible for prepping and painting the utility boxes. Several sequential steps will be
needed to complete the project. Including 1. paint with acrylics, 2. finishing with anti - graffiti clear
coat. Artists are responsible for cleanup of their area and safe disposal of all paint ma terials.
Artists may only use acrylic paint: Golden or Liquitex high viscosity paint, lightfastness 1, with low
sheen, eggshell or satin finish. Artists are responsible for applying a coat on top of the mural of
Liquitex Soluvar. This is not permanent varnish, but is weather and UV resistant and will enable better
graffiti clean off if needed.
Below is a comprehensive checklist of highly recommended supplies for the best painting outcome
and your personal comfort. This may not be a complete list as all art ists work differently:
• Approved Utility Box Art signage to identify the artist while working
• Paint Stool or chair for comfort
• Bucket to hold water for paint brushes
• Paint brushes
• Painters tape, masking tape
• Drop cloth or plastic sheeting, newspaper for protecting surrounded area
• Biodegradable cleanser
• Rags and/or paper towels
• Shade/umbrella
Please be ADVISED:
• Do not paint over/obliterate any identification numbers/codes on the box, if any. Paint around them.
• Do not paint over keyholes or paint keyhole covers so that they cannot be opened.
• Do not obstruct vents.
• Do not use airbrush or spray equipment for the mural.
• Do not paint over the electrical box on the side of the box.
Insurance & Indemnification
Selected artists are required to comply with the Town’s insurance and liability requirements. Also,
selected artists must sign a Release of Liability and Indemnity Agreement.
