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. 1 w4 ~~W~' Paul R. Johnston Mayor ATTEST: L~ Pamela A. Brandmeyer, Town clerk A.
