AT TAC H ME N TS: Description E RW S D Memorandum Capital Projects and Rate Increases 2020 Rates for Monthly Water and W astewater Services E RW S D Presentation February 4, 2020 - Page 4 of 120 MEMORANDUM TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Linn Brooks, General Manager James Wilkins, Director of Finance DATE: January 29, 2020 RE: Water and Wastewater Capital Projects and Associated Rate Increases Summary: Linn Brooks and James Wilkins will present an overview of the Eagle River Water & Sanitation District’s upcoming capital projects and the associated increases in water and wastewater rates. They will discuss the primary factors that are causing rates to increase and show how district rates compare to other water and wastewater treatment providers locally and nationally. Background: The Eagle River Water & Sanitation District increased monthly rates for water and sewer service in 2020. Monthly service rates pay for the operating costs of providing water and sewer services on an annual basis. Sewer service rates have increased 7.4%, resulting in an increase of $2.58 per month, per single family equivalent (SFE), for an average customer. Water service rates have increased 11.1%, resulting in an increase of $4.53 per month, per SFE, for an average customer. These increases are due to a variety of factors: • Regulations – the water and sanitation industry is highly regulated. As stewards of our natural environment, the district proactively addresses regulations that will affect operations. • Infrastructure Replacement – investment in upgrades and replacement for aging infrastructure is implemented according to system condition assessments and master plans. • Operating Costs – on average, water and sewer operational costs have increased 5.8%. Sewer service rate increases are largely due to upcoming regulatory-driven capital projects, most notably a major upgrade to the Avon wastewater treatment facility to meet new state nutrient regulations. This project will allow the facility to comply with new and upcoming regulations, improve stream water quality, increase capacity to meet future needs, replace aging infrastructure, and mitigate odor impacts. The district remains a committed environmental and financial steward through master planning efforts to address increased regulatory compliance standards. Budgeting for upcoming years represents the essentials needed to continue operating in a proactive manner, while meeting the goals set for necessary maintenance, replacement, and regulatory compliance, and still being responsible to our customers’ finances and expectations of service. Ongoing capital expenses to meet changing environmental regulations and replace aging infrastructure are expected to result in rate increases in water and sewer services of 8 to 10% for 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024.

PURPOSE The purpose of this item is to present updates on the I-70 corridor and Colorado Department of Transportation projects. Information to be presented includes:  Brief overview of the West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lane Project Status and other projects  I–70 Collaborative Effort Update  I-70 Coalition Update  CDOT 2040 Intermountain Transportation Planning Region (IMTPR) Regional Plan and My Transportation Plan statewide planning process  Grant award for Vail Transit smart system update  Links to past studies on topic areas Town Council identified during their retreat II. BACKGROUND The 2011 I-70 Mountain Corridor PEIS Record of Decision (ROD) identifies a preferred alternative with several specific projects. The preferred alternative was a consensus driven solution, developed by the Collaborative Effort (CE). Greg Hall is the western representative Co-Chair and Randy Wheelock, Clear Creek County Commissioner, is the eastern representative Co-Chair of the CE. The CE is a corridor wide broad stakeholder group which includes both CDOT and FHWA leadership and was created to develop the preferred alternative and to assist in carrying out the I-70 ROD over the life of the project. The Town of Vail is involved in multiple arenas regarding the I-70 corridor. Specific projects include:  West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project is currently undergoing a Tier 2 Environmental Assessment.  Floyd Hill Improvements from the top of Floyd Hill to the Veterans’ Memorial Tunnels. PROJECT UPDATES February 4, 2020 - Page 41 of 120 2 Current Environmental Assessments West Vail Pass Aux Lanes preferred alternative is undergoing environmental review and technical reports are being produced regarding the many impacts to consider. These include:  Wildlife  Water Quality  Recreation  Noise  Emergency operations  Maintenance and traffic operations  Safety  Construction Impacts  Project Phasing and Funding  Aesthetics  Non preclusion of Advanced Guideway technology  Others The project is following CDOT’s Context Sensitive Solutions (CSS) process (http://www.coloradodot.info/projects/contextsensitivesolutions/decision/6-stepprocess). As a part of this process the project team is required to set up a Project Leadership Team (PLT). The PLT is a non-decision-making group who ensures the project stays on task, is a public and open process, and meets the goals, purpose and needs of the project. Greg Hall and Dick Cleveland are on the PLT. In addition to the Project Leadership Team, there is a technical team with members covering all aspects of the project. The town is represented on the technical team as well as additional community partners providing technical input. Specific issues teams are created to work on a defined item to help the process. Engineering, public information, environmental, police and fire and recreation have all participated in the task issues. Finally, the public will be involved throughout the process, with many ways and opportunities to participate. One issue critical to Vail is noise, the PLT requested a specific neighborhood meeting for the East Vail neighborhood to discuss the preliminary results of the noise analysis. This meeting will be held February 13th with a presentation at 5:30 and an open house following from 6:00 – 7:00 at the Vail Golf and Nordic Center. The overall project schedule includes a technical team meeting in late spring to early summer to review the various reports and recommendations, release of a draft Environmental Assessment in the summer for public comment and then a final decision anticipated in late 2020. The following project link provides additional information. https://www.codot.gov/projects/I-70- West-Vail-Auxiliary-Lanes The estimate for the entire project is $750M. This project is the number-one project of the IMTPR from a statewide priority and received number-one status from the CDOT Region 3 planning process. It is the number-two priority project of the I-70 Coalition. Currently $68M has been identified as a match to request INFRA (Infrastructure for Rebuilding America) federal grant for a first phase, most likely from MM184 to MM190 in the EB direction. February 4, 2020 - Page 42 of 120 3 Floyd Hill is the number-one project of I-70 coalition, this $600M project currently has $300M budgeted. Two other projects which will begin studies include improvements to interchanges 203 Frisco and 205 Silverthorn and an EB Auxiliary lane from Frisco to Silverthorne. These projects are a high priority of the I-70 Coalition. Finally, the Vail Pass Rest Area will begin a study to redesign and upgrade water and sewer systems, rebuild the restrooms as well as other improvements. Collaborative Effort The Collaborative Effort has semi-annual meetings in May and October. The PEIS identified a reassessment of the project purpose and need to be evaluated in 2020 by the Collaborative Effort. The Collaborative Effort formed a sub committee to develop and approve by consensus a workplan for the reassessment. CDOT has hired a consultant team to work with the sub committee and the full Collaborative Effort to conduct and by consensus concur with the reassessment process. This work will take place during 2020, with the full Collaborative Effort meeting 4 times to complete the work. The second subcommittee of the Collaborative Effort is the Floyd Hill Funding Gap analysis. A consultant team has been hired to assist the sub committee in evaluating various funding scenarios and evaluate specific issues with each. The sub committee will report back to gain consensus and full concurrence. I-70 Coalition Vail is a founding member of the I-70 Coalition. Scott Robson represents the Town of Vail on the I-70 board. The coalition is continuing to keep the I-70 corridor front and center as follows:  Advocate for improvements on the I-70 mountain corridor  Direct Involvement in all current studies, design and construction projects along the I-70 corridor.  Engage in transportation funding discussions  Information sharing and outreach  Travel Demand Management(TDM) Strategies o Traveler Education and outreach o Partner with businesses to provide off peak travel incentives o Promote TDM strategies through resorts, local governments and tourism-based organizations o Develop and Enhance TDM related partnerships o Support carpooling and carpool parking  specific projects, two of which were carpool apps Gondola and Tread Share. o Support and promote transit  Monitoring and supporting Bustang and Snowstang.  Front Range Passenger Rail Commission February 4, 2020 - Page 43 of 120 4  Traction Legislation rule making CDOT 2040 Planning process Through the IMTPR the town has been participating in the development of the CDOT 2040 planning process. The result will be a new 2040 state transportation plan The IMTPR members along with the public identified over 240 projects or areas of emphasis for the region. These were initially reviewed by the members, then prioritized by counties, then the five member counties prioritized the projects for a regional list using two major categories, highway improvements and alternative modes. The list was then prioritized amongst the four planning regions in CDOT Transportation Region 3. Attached is the IMTPR prioritized list. This process will continue to move forward as part of CDOT’s My Transportation Planning statewide process. Even though there is a prioritized list of projects, the entire list of projects will be included in the unconstrained portion of the plan. Multi Modal Options Fund (MMOF) Grant The town applied for and is awaiting final confirmation of $350,000 grant award as a 50/50 match to replace and greatly enhance the Vail Transit smart technology system. (NextBus). The town’s portion of the grant is being funded with bus acquisition funds. The enhanced system will not only continue the NextBus current capabilities, have an ability to provide automatic passenger counts allowing customers to not only know when the bus is coming but whether it is a full bus. This information on the backside will allow the transit team to evaluate improvements to the system. The deployment of Wi-Fi on all the buses. Provide for automated Stop annunciation and visual stop recognition. The ability to look-in “live” to the bus cameras if an incident is occurring. This will greatly improve the late-night safety of both drivers and customers. Next steps pending final award would be a vendor solicitation process, vender selection and contract award system implementation.

SUMMARY The Eagle County Housing Task Force exists, in part, to advocate for the advancement of deed- restricted housing initiatives within Eagle County and help each individual municipality achieve their housing-related goals. The Task Force is comprised of industry experts committed to increasing the supply of deed-restricted homes in the Eagle River Valley. To that end, the Eagle County Housing Task Force recently convened a series of roundtable interviews with private sector participants involved with housing developments to gain insights on how best to break down the barriers to housing development within the Valley. The Task Force intends to share this presentation with community leaders across the region. The purpose of this presentation is two-fold: 1) share the findings of the roundtable interviews, and 2) share recommendations for breaking down barriers in the hopes of increasing the supply of resident-occupied, deed-restricted homes. In the end, the Eagle County Housing Task Force is requesting the support and leadership of the Vail Town Council to instruct its Town staff to consider the input of the private sector partners from the roundtable interviews and implement changes which break down barriers with the intent of realizing Vail’s housing goal. 2. BACKGROUND It is often said, “your systems are perfectly aligned to get the results you get.” In this instance, the inadequate supply and lack of availability of housing in the Eagle River Valley is likely due to our culture, policies, processes, and regulations being perfectly aligned such that they do not deliver the housing that is needed. The Task Force believes substantive changes in our systems are needed. February 4, 2020 - Page 48 of 120 Town of Vail Page 2 The Eagle County Housing Task Force values the importance of the private sector in achieving the community’s housing goal. It has been long understood by the Task Force and the Vail Town Council alike, the public sector cannot solve the housing challenges without the support and participation of the private sector. With that understanding in mind, the Task Force believes the Vail Town Council adopted housing policy statements which support public-private partnerships and break down barriers to housing development. Specifically, Housing Policies #2, 3, and 5 state, #2 Housing Partners – We use public/private partnerships and actively pursue local and regional solutions to increase the supply of deed-restricted homes. #3 Private Sector Importance – We foster a proactive and solutions-oriented environment that promotes private sector investment to create deed-restricted homes. #5 Breakdown Barriers – We align our land use regulations, building and energy conservation codes to achieve our vision and housing goal, and development applications are thoroughly, timely and efficiently reviewed5.getting to “yes” is our shared objective 3. ACTION REQUESTED The Eagle County Housing Task Force respectfully requests that the Vail Town Council instructs its staff to consider the input of the private sector partners from the roundtable interviews and implement substantive changes to the culture, policies, processes and regulations which break down barriers with the intent of realizing Vail’s housing goal. Can the Eagle County Housing Task Force count on the Vail Town Council to demonstrate the leadership needed to implement substantive changes and break down barriers in hopes of increasing the supply of deed-restricted, resident-occupied homes for the community?

This presentation is for information only, and therefore, no action is requested of the Vail Town Council at this time. Staff will, however, present background information on the opportunity and identify possible next steps to pursue if the potential opportunity warrants further exploration. This agenda item has the potential to advance many of the community goals, actions and strategies identified in the Vail Town Council Action Plan 2018-2020 and help achieve the Town’s adopted housing goal of acquiring 1,000 new deed restrictions. 2. BACKGROUND An opportunity exists for the Town of Vail and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDoT) to enter into a public partnership to address the housing needs of their respective organizations. The objective of the initiative would be to foster a public partnership between the two organizations to increase the availability of quality home opportunities for their respective employees and their families. The objective is accomplished by utilizing an undeveloped parcel of land to create a mix of new, deed-restricted homes in East Vail. Town staff has met on two occasions with local representatives from CDoT about this potential public partnership opportunity. As a result of these meetings, six conceptual design proposals have been generated. The purpose of the conceptual design proposals is to illustrate possible site layouts and better understand the potential opportunities for residential development on the site. In the end, it appears residential development is possible with densities ranging from 15 to 27 dwelling units total in either townhomes or apartments. It is also possible to develop a mix of these home types. That said, there are site constraint and logistics issues to be addressed. A copy of the design proposals has been attached for reference.

Those steps include: • Assemble a pre-development team comprised of ToV and CDoT staff • Engage in a public engagement/outreach process • Prepare a memorandum of understanding/letter of intent between the two public partners prescribing roles, responsibilities, financial obligations, project management, etc of the partnership. • Determine the land ownership transfer process • Present a more refined proposal to commissions, boards, councils and decision makers • Develop an initial project timeline • Prepare a preliminary project budget and cost estimate • Present possible partnership arrangements to decision makers (i.e. land lease, for- sale/for-rent, property management, etc. • Engage in discussions with internal stakeholders 4.

AT TAC H ME N TS: Description tax vs fee February 4, 2020 - Page 86 of 120 __________________________________________________________________________ Memorandum TO: Town Council FROM: Finance Department and Town Clerk DATE: February 4, 2020 SUBJECT: Tax versus Fee Discussion I. SUMMARY Town Council requested a discussion of regulatory fees versus voter-approved taxes. II. BACKGROUND In preparation for a potential ballot question to Vail voters this November, Town Council requested a discussion of two methods of generating revenue: Fees and taxes. If the primary purpose of a charge is to defray reasonable direct and indirect costs of providing a service or regulating an activity because such a charge does not raise revenue for the general expense of government, then that charge is considered a “regulatory fee”. Town Council may have to demonstrate revenue neutrality with a cost study or nexus to prove that the fee would offset costs for the town to establish a regulatory “scheme” or process aimed at accomplishing a town initiative or goal. Fees are not a tax, and thus exempt from TABOR’s (Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights) requirements. Example of fees currently collected by the town:  Short Term Rental Registration Fee: Revenue generated is used to offset staff and software program to regulate the rental by owner industry. This fee was established in 2018.  Building Permit Fees: Revenue generated is used to offset staff and software costs to regulate construction industry activity in town. These fees were updated in 2018.  Business license Fee: Revenue generated is used to go toward marketing and special events activities to promote more business in town. These fees have not been updated or increased for decades.  Daily parking fees: Revenue generated is used toward the operation of parking structures. The full daily rate ($30) was updated in 2018, along with a new overnight rate of $50. February 4, 2020 - Page 87 of 120 - 2 - If the primary purpose of a charge is to raise revenue for general expenses of government, then the charge is a tax. Per TABOR’s requirements, any tax must be approved by the voters. Examples of taxes currently collected by the town:  Sales tax of 4%: Revenue generated is split between the town’s General Fund (62%) and Capital Projects Fund (38%).  Construction Use Tax of 4%: Revenue generated by this tax on construction materials is restricted to the Capital Projects Fund.  Real Estate Transfer Tax of 1%: Revenue generated is restricted to parks, recreation, purchase of open lands, environmental sustainability, forest health and public art.  Ski Lift Tax of 4%: Revenue generated goes into the General Fund and intended to help cover the cost of free public transportation.  Lodging Tax of 1.4%: Revenue is restricted by state statute (via a local marketing district) to marketing, special events and the operation of welcome centers. The Town of Vail uses these funds for summer marketing efforts. III. DISCUSSION Two highly prioritized town initiatives have been identified as requiring additional funding for continued success of programs: Special Events and Housing. Currently those programs are funded from the General Fund, Marketing Fund and Capital Projects Fund. Special Events represent 8% ($3.2 million) of General Fund spending in addition to the $300K annually funded from the Marketing Fund and $3.5 million in summer marketing by the Vail Local Marketing District. General Fund expenditures traditionally include municipal operations such as transit systems, police, fire, public works and administration. Special event funding from the General Fund encumbers traditional municipal service expenditures. An additional funding source would benefit the sustainability of both special events and municipal services. While Housing department staff and operations are funded through the General Fund, housing programs such as the InDEED program and investments in employee housing developments have been funded by the Capital Projects Fund. The housing initiatives make up 32% of the Capital Projects Fund budget, with $10.6 million appropriated in 2019. Over the next five years, the InDEED program has been budgeted with $2.5 million. Other investments in employee housing developments are not currently reflected in the budget, however that may change as opportunities arise. Peer resort communities have been successful in establishing permanent funding sources through taxes and given them a competitive advantage in creating employee housing. IV. ACTION REQUESTED FROM COUNCIL Pending Council direction, staff will return on February 18th with additional information on the various opportunities for tax increases and comparisons with peer communities.

(P E C19-0050) 30 min. Applicant:Scott Ryan & Foster Gillett, represented by Mauriello Planning Group Planner:Erik Gates Staff Planner Erik Gates gave a presentation on the application discussing the property’s history and the regulatory history of the code as it related to this property. Discussion was had on why staff recommended approval of one of the applications. Dominic Mauriello: I ntroduces applicants, starts presentation for why the applicant is requesting the two variances. Foster Gillette makes an appeal to the P E C on why the variances are needed. February 4, 2020 - Page 95 of 120 Mauriello goes through each variance criteria for each request and addresses how each application is meeting the criteria. Shows quotes from a 2004 staff report and P E C meeting on sections that stated that creating non-conforming properties were not an intention of the code change. Perez clarifies that some of the quotes shown were from items that were not adopted by the Council. Mauriello explains criteria 2, 3, and 4. Discussion was had on why there is a 60/40 split, the difference in the zone districts and the intent behind the 60/40. Gates clarifies that only one of the units has been considered the primary since it was built. J onathan Spence explains the thought process behind some of the code changes in 2016 with regard to the basement deduction. Kjesbo: I was heavily involved in this. I was on P E C when this was passed in 2004. We were thinking it would be by unit to allow deduction and not structure. Council approved it as structure. Spence: The six feet rule helped people because it gave people square footage where none existed before. Explanation of crawl space and height of ceiling vs 6ft separation of basement floors takes place between commissioners. Perez: The reality is the rule is six feet and that is our criteria. Mauriello: Please vote on basement variance first as we will not need to proceed with the second variance if that does not pass. Gillette questions the reasoning behind the applicant’s request. Kurz opens for public input. None comes forward. Opens commissioner comments. Kjesbo: I ’ve been doing this since beginning. I t’s been very clear since 2004 that Council wanted to look at it as one structure. I t’s clear that it is six feet and granting this would be a grant of special privilege. I f we approved this, we would have a lot of new variances coming in for this type of application. Gillette: I agree with Kjesbo. Perez: I agree that it would be a special privilege. I t is clearly stated to be six feet and a single structure. I don’t see the hardship to overcome this. Hopkins: I t breaks my heart; I remember the depressions and recessions. They gave 250 for people to have incentive to fix up buildings. The result of trying to take advantage of property to not increase the bulk and mass of buildings. I t was meant to help and has done the opposite in this case. Lockman: I ’m in favor of the 60/40, but not the six feet basement variance which would be special privilege. February 4, 2020 - Page 96 of 120 Mauriello asked that the item be continued to the next meeting. Rollie Kjesbo moved to table to February 10, 2020. Pam Hopkins seconded the motion and it passed (6-0).

The parking management plan for the on-site employee housing units (EHUs) shall include a parking designation of one (1) space per unit. Planner Spence: The applicants left the last meeting understanding that they needed to make some revisions, which they have done. Tom Braun will discuss the revised proposal Tom Braun: Started by introducing his team. This discussion can get very complicated if you let it, but I ’m going to try to simplify this. The applicant has been speaking with Vail 21 to discuss their concerns. Tom then spoke about the original 2018 approval for this project. Had a surplus of parking with the 3rd level. Always expected to lose some of their potential 93 spaces. Fast forwarding to today, we are proposing dropping from 69 to 61 parking spaces. Meeting that in five ways: eliminating an on-site E HU, adding 3 spaces to the entry level, receiving a waiver for one space, recalculating the required replacement parking to lose 1 spot, and paying a fee-in-lieu for the final spot. Commissioner Kjesbo: Are there any spots reserved for Vail 21? Braun: Yes, 24 spaces. Spence: The deed restriction would have to detail how its parking is being February 4, 2020 - Page 97 of 120 met. Gillette: W hy aren’t we just waiving the parking requirement for the E HU Spence: The Commission had previously indicated that they were not in support of this. No real basis to eliminate this. Also clarified that the elimination of 1 E HU will not be out of compliance as this development was proposing an extra E HU in the first place. Braun: Using the overhead screens, showed where new parking spaces would be located. Also discussed a snow storage parking space that was counted as part of the parking spaces to be replaced. This should not have been counted. Commissioner Lockman: Asked a clarifying question about counting a parking space as snow storage. Planner Spence: W hen we receive an application showing a parking space as snow storage, we do not interpret that spot as a parking space for zoning purposes. Braun: Then began to discuss his argument for a fee-in-lieu. Replacement parking has ultimately required us to have more parking than we would need if this was a completely new development. The D RB, Council, and master plan have all been in support of this development. Commissioner Perez: W here is your excess parking coming from? Braun: Discussed the requirement for each kind of unit in the development. This leaves 16 units to Vail 21 and a few spaces for the E HUs. Open public comment Keith Kapilla: I f the original plan was submitted with 48 parking spots, would they still have the same allowable square footage. Spence: Those metrics are unrelated as square footage is determined by lot size. Susan Cahill Vail 21 HOA rep.: Pleased with the revisions made, and willing to work with the developer with this new proposal Kingsley Brown, Vantage Point owner: Parking is a problem in Lionshead. I f you’re focusing on making this more pedestrian focused, what is going to be addressed regarding the Lionshead Circle. W here will the underground structure be vented? Bruce Zivic: Professional experience as an architect for 35 years. Has worked with lodging and underground parking. Has been following this project from the onset. Understands the challenges of working collaboratively with your neighbor. I n my opinion this is the best solution moving forward. All other problems are relatively small and manageable. Commissioner Lockman: W anted to make sure the applicant was meeting all parking criteria. Shame about losing an E HU, but ok. Ok with the waiver as well. A little uncomfortable with the replacement parking recalculation but will side with staff’s recommendation. February 4, 2020 - Page 98 of 120 Braun: To clarify, we won’t be venting exhaust from the basement because of the automated system, only a handful on the entry level need venting. Spence: W ill be addressed in the building permit and wont’ be blowing into another building. Perez: Appreciates the changes made since the last meeting and appreciates the applicant accepting the additional conditions of the P E C. Thinks this a much more reasonable proposal. Gillette: Still does not want to eliminate parking. Would be in favor of this if all the proposed eliminated spots were fee-in-lieu. Kjesbo: Agrees with the replacement parking recalculation. W ill be in support of this as proposed. Kurz: Also appreciates the changes made since the last meeting. This is a much better solution. I n favor of this application. Perez: Wants a condition of approval to require parking for the current E HUs. 2.8 are normally required. Quick discussion among the commissioners settled on requiring 2 spaces be dedicated to the E HUs. Rollie Kjesbo moved to approve with conditions.

Mitchell stated it is time to review housing branding. Create one brand/umbrella that works with all housing players: Vail Local Housing Authority, Town Council and Housing Subcommittee. The intended goal is to make locating housing information less confusing for the public. The Authority agreed to the one name for the entire group related to housing. Mitchel asked if Vail InDEED is a program within housing? Authority - Yes. Mitchell reviewed some potential branding names and visual display concepts. The display could summarize housing accomplishments and / or statistics. Mitchell questioned if the Authority would prefer the name to be straight forward or catchy. Discussion ensued regarding potential names, taglines and visual concepts. Mitchell, do taglines become program specific? She asked the board to forward other names and taglines to her and pointed out the goal is to clearly indicate VLHA works in partnership with Council. Suzanne Silverthorn asked when money is spent down valley what does that action includes. Does the brand name include any down valley expenditures? The branding timeline is needed sooner than later. Ruther noted Magellan’s 2019 housing survey listed one item was to improve housing awareness. The Town will do a follow up survey in June 2020 therefore, branding concepts / decisions is needed sooner than later. February 4, 2020 - Page 103 of 120 Lindstrom asked if the tag lines, are they synonymous with the housing mission? Mitchell and Ruther thought note tagline as a “mini” mission (statement). Ruther surmised tagline with “one home at a time” catches the full housing department mission. Mitchell asked what the Authority thought of using the existing Vail InDEED logo, keeping only the mountains and windows. The InDEED program could be relocated as a program under housing. Members present agreed to the logo concept. Mitchell asked the members to email ideas. She will attend the next meeting January 28th. Staff and the Authority reviewed Vail Local Housing Authority’s name. Does the word “local” remain? Yes, according to Lindstrom so to differentiate between VLHA (Vail Local Housing Authority) from VHA (Vail Homeowners Association).

Summary Historically, the Vail Town Council has visited peer resorts in an effort to better understand what makes other resort areas successful, whether it is their events, their specific programming, their economic development practices, it has been productive to visit these locations and learn about their best practices and what has helped them remain competitive in the industry. In some instances, there have been site visits by members of Vail’s Boards & Commissions to some of the local resorts. The Town of Vail has outlined several focus areas in its action plan; within the focus areas are the components of programming and services that make-up a mountain resort community, such as economic development, guest experience, environmental sustainability practices or cultural, artistic and historical programming as well as the workforce housing component. The list below suggests some locations that might speak to some of our focus areas and are suggested for 2020 visits: March 26-28: Jackson Hole, Wyoming (focus areas: special events, multi-use facility, environmental programs) May Front Range Visits to Parker, Denver, Broomfield (focus areas: multi-use facility, commercial areas, shared workspace, shared housing space) June: Breckenridge, Summit County (focus areas: creative arts district, housing, transportation) September: Aspen and Telluride (focus areas: cultural, arts, events, workforce housing and environmental programming) Staff requests direction on this programming for 2020 in terms of whether these locations might be acceptable for planning the peer resort visit.
