POLICY STATEMEiVT 85-7
It is the desire of the Vail Town Council to motivate to action the
remarkable human and natural resources of this community. By renewing our
partnership with a1T the various entities of the Town of Vail and its people we
hope to shape a better future.
Though just more than two decades old, this community has passed an
incredible number of milestones in developing a new frontier. Despite having
to move quickly from the pressure of rapid growth, Vail has become a premier
resort as well as having built a solid Foundation for quality growth in the
future.
The advent of the Vaii Mountain Development Plan and the 1989 World
Alpine Ski Championships indicates that our town is at the beginning of a new
renaissance. To effectively act during this new era, the Council has held a
number of special discussions on the future of Vail. Three major areas of need
have emerged from those discussions and from the Community Action Plan and
Economic Development Commission Report: infrastructure, increased business,
pi us creative reorganization and financial planning. The most pressing issues
have been organized by the Council under these three areas of need. The
Council proposes a combined community effort to address these critical issues
over a five year time frame. We encourage all interest groups and citizens to
join in a cooperative stance, and we encourage input and ideas from ail sectors
of the community.
Effective date of Policy Statement 85-7 is Dece`mb~er 3, 1985.
