Vail Local Marketing District 1st Supplemental Budget Request
I.BACKGROUND
The mission of the Vail Local Marketing District (VLMD) is to market and promote Vail to
attract overnight destination guests primarily during the May to October time frame,
creating economic vitality by increasing the visitor base, sales tax and lodging tax
revenues. The overarching goal of the VLMD is to strengthen Vail’s position as a year-
round mountain resort destination that appeals to a broad audience by elevating the
summer brand position.
With the addition of the DiscoverVail.com website, the VLMD is now in a position to
promote non-ski season travel to Vail during the winter months. The goal is to better
understand high-funnel consumer interest and performance:
•Consumer demand for summer travel during the winter season (i.e., search
volume, etc.)
•Summer versus winter key metric performance (i.e. click-thru rate and cost per
click, etc.)
•Understand high-performing and click driving, non-branded summer terms
Based on this new opportunity Cactus evaluated multiple digital media options to
understand what a monthly paid media investment could look like during the winter
months to continue to drive summer and shoulder season tourism.
BUDGET DETAIL
The Vail Local Marketing District Advisory Council (VLMDAC) is recommending a
supplemental of $140,000 to be used for pay per click (PPC) search. This will include:
•Five months of non-branded summer vacation terms (i.e. summer mountain
vacation, summer weekend getaway, mountain resort hiking, etc.)
•A monthly spend level which is comparable to past VLMD summer PPC
budgets and is only charged when a listing is clicked on by consumers
January 5, 2021 - Page 7 of 45
Town of Vail Page 2
•Non-branded paid search terms only to ensure no competition with Vail Resorts
— specifically to navigate away from branded and winter-related search terms
that are aimed at driving users to vail.com
The additional $140,000 of PPC spend will be allocated between the Front Range
($115,000) and to three (to be determined) destination markets ($25,000) that can be
flexible with changing travel conditions (i.e. COVID-19). The 2021 amended fund
balance is projected to be $1,644,689, or 46% of a normal year’s annual revenues
(above Council’s 25% directive).
II.BUDGET RECLASSIFICATIONS
Since presenting the budget in October, the VLMD determined several line items
needed to be re-classified to more accurately reflect how and where the funds are
being spent. These shifts do not reflect a shift in strategy or tactics, but, rather a more
accurate representation of the true nature of the expense. Through this process, the
following budget shifts have occurred:
•Digital media advertising efforts were classified under one line item totaling
$577,164, and have since been reclassified to separate Destination Digital
Media vs. Front Range Digital Media as outlined below:
Destination Digital Media $184,692
Front Range Digital Media $392,472
•An amount of $30,000 was re-classified from Photo/Video production into
Branding and Production, to reflect this amount as being hard costs and
expenses vs. fees. In addition, $5,000 was re-classified from SITE Marketing
email line item into Production to accurate reflect how those dollars are
spent.Re-classification from Website into the Database Systems line items
resulted in $172,000 shifting from Website into Database Systems to accurately
reflect what was specific to website enhancement and development vs. overall
data systems enhancements and expenses.
•A $48,000 re-classification from Destination to Professional Fees was made to
accurately reflect the roll of the Lodging Liaison.
III.ACTION REQUESTED OF VAIL LOCAL MARKETING DISTRICT
The Vail Local Marketing District recommends that the Vail Town Council
approve the supplemental PPC media budget of $140,000.

I. PUROPOSE
The purpose of the memo is to request the council authorize the town manager enter a contract
with Motorola Solutions for the upgrade of our existing 911 Call Processing Equipment in an
amount not to exceed, $260,913.
II. BACKGROUND
Vail Public Safety Communications Center installed the current Patriot Phone system in 2015.

Objectives
With the recent migration to the ESInet, all incoming 911 calls are routed to our center digitally
through a statewide network ; by upgrading our call handling equipment from analog to digital we
will be able to enhance our service, especially as it pertains to receiving location information.
The phone system is also geo-diverse between Vail and Pitkin County Regional
Communications, both agencies can back up each other in the instance one system goes down.
The upgrade will enhance that ability by c reating a second redundant link utilizing project THOR
fiber optics.
The system upgrade includes:
• A mobile laptop unit that allows remote log in and operation.
• Enhanced location technology that will help pinpoint cell phones.
• Future options for receiving SMS, video calling, and automatic callback .
IV. Implementation
This project will take approximately 3 months and will begin immediately in coordination with
Pitkin County Regional Communications Center. Cutover is expected in the first quarter of
2021.

burden and cost to comply with the Act. In addition to the "opt out" provision, several
amendments to the Vail Town Code are required to update the original ordinance, as
reflected in the attached Ordinance No.1, Series 2021.
Background:
The Act provides for the reporting and delivery to the State Treasurer of certain unclaimed
or abandoned property held by governmental entities. Generally, all intangible property
unclaimed for more than 5 years after it became payable or distributable is presumed
abandoned. However, for the Town's purposes, intangible property held by municipalities
which remains unclaimed by the owner for more than one year after becoming payable
or distributable is presumed abandoned. "Intangible property" is generally defined as any
income or increment derived therefrom that is held, issued or owing in the ordinary course
of business and includes "moneys, checks, drafts, deposits, interest, dividends and
income." Property is payable or distributable notwithstanding the owner's failure to make
demand or present any instrument or document required to receive payment. For the
Town’s purposes, this most often includes items such as monies held in "lost and found",
uncashed checks issued by the Town to vendors, uncashed court restitution checks, etc.
Importantly, the Act does not apply to tangible personal property, which is what the Vail
Town Code primarily addresses. Thus, bicycles, wallets and similar items that are found
or turned in to the Police Department are not subject to the Act.
Regardless of whether the Town opts in or out of the Act, the Town must report the
existence of unclaimed property subject to the Act to the State Treasurer by November 1
of each year. All unclaimed property must be reported regardless of amount or value.
The report must include certain specific requirements including the last known address
January 5, 2021 - Page 22 of 45
Town of Vail Page 2
and name of each person appearing to be the owner; a description of the property; and
the date the property became payable. The Town must also keep a record of any property
where the name and last known address of the owner is known for a period of 5 years
after the property becomes reportable.
Under the Act, any unclaimed property held by any person is subject to the custody of the
State unless another statute or local law provides otherwise. In other words, if the Town
has adopted its own local law concerning disposition of unclaimed property subject to the
Act, it is not required to comply with the procedures provided in the Act for handing such
property over to the State. However, even if the Town adopts a local ordinance, the Town
is not exempt from the reporting requirements.
To opt out of the Act, the Town would need to take the following steps:
1. Adopt an ordinance relating to the disposition of property, which ordinance
must require the local government to hold the property for the owner for at least
5 years after the date it is presumed abandoned. In addition, property held by
a government is abandoned "one year after the property becomes
distributable." Thus, the Town must retain abandoned property for at least 6
years; and
2. Provide the State with an electronic report by November 1 of each year that
includes an alphabetical list of the purported owners of the property and the
value of the property held.
Chapter 2 of Title 6 of the Vail Town Code currently governs all tangible and intangible
lost, abandoned or unclaimed property in the Town. To comply with the Act, we have
now separated the definitions of unclaimed property and abandoned intangible property.
Unclaimed property is all property not subject to the Act and can be regulated freely by
the Town. As requested, we have amended the Code to provide that this property will be
held for 180 days before it will be disposed of as the Town deems proper, including
donating any such unclaimed property to charity. Abandoned intangible property must
be held for a year before being deemed "abandoned" and then held for a period of five
years thereafter before it can become the property of the Town and disposed of.
Conclusion
While the reporting requirements remain regardless of what the Town decides to do, staff
recommends that the Town "opt out" of other provisions of the Act due to significantly
increased administrative burden and cost. While "lost and found" items do not amount to
high dollar volume, other intangibles such as uncashed checks issued by the Town can
be significant. Currently, after an extended period of time and effort to find the rightful
owner, the Town ultimately returns abandoned property to the General Fund.
The Town will be responsible for reporting most abandoned intangible property to the
State on an annual basis. In the attached Ordinance, we have made the required
amendments to the Vail Town Code to "opt out" of the Act, as well as making several
administrative updates.

DATE: January 5, 2021
SUBJECT: Construction License Agreement for Temporary Soil Nails in Town of Vail
Property in the vicinity of 1390/1469 Greenhill Ct.
I. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST
Dead Drift Development, represented by Jack Snow of RKD Architecture, requests a
Construction License Agreement to install temporary soil nails in Town of Vail
property in the open space strip of land separating 1390 and 1469 Greenhill Ct. A
new two-family residence is currently under construction on 1469 Greenhill Ct. The
purpose of the soil nails is to increase the project efficiency and safety while reducing
cost and minimizing site disturbance.
II. BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL
Dead Drift Development received Design Review Board approval for a new two-family
residence in August of 1999. 1469 Greenhill Ct. (Lot 11, Glen Lyon Subdivision) is a
0.706 acre vacant parcel with significant steep slopes. To ease in the constructability
of the lot and to minimize site disturbance, the applicant has requested the use of the
adjacent town-owned open space property. The graphic below shows the property
under construction and the adjacent properties. The large parcel to the south of the
subject property is Tract D of the Glen Lyon Subdivision, a 19.12 acre open space
parcel. The Glen Lyon Subdivision is Special Development District No. 4 and has no
underlying zoning. Per the Special Development District, these residential lots
generally follow the Two-Family Primary Secondary P/S District.

RE. 1469 Greenhill Court
Dear Town Council,
On behalf of Dead Drift Development, owners of the above property, we are requesting the use
of temporary shoring nails into the town’s property, Tract D (indicated on the attached PDF). As
you may know the use of temporary soil nails are permitted in the town’s right of ways, but since
Tract D is a not a designated as a right-of-way we are making this request.
The soil nails should save time, increase safety and help to minimize site disturbance- thus
helping preserve the existing aspen grove. See attached photo – the area between the highlight
and the fence (property line) are at issue and those are trees we hope to preserve. All work
foundation below the temporary shoring should be completed by the end of March, with backfill
beginning as soon as possible pending the weather.
Other permanent shoring is highlighted on the attached plan, but no permanent shoring will be
on Town of Vail Property. Please see attached plan, cross section (showing the worst
case/highest cut scenario), photograph and additional requested backup material from the civil
engineer.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
Sincerely,
Jack K. Snow A.I.A.

CONSTRUCTION LICENSE AGREEMENT
THIS CONSTRUCTION LICENSE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of
the _______ day of _______________, 20__, by and between the TOWN OF VAIL, a municipal
corporation duly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Colorado
(the “Town”), and _____________________________________________________
(“Developer”).
RECITALS:
A. The Developer is the owner of certain real property situate at
______________, in Town of Vail, which is commonly known or referred to as
“______________.” The property is legally described on Exhibit A attached hereto and
incorporated herein by this reference (the “_____________”). The Developer intends to
commence the redevelopment and construction on the ______________ Property pursuant to the
approved Development and Building Permit plans referenced under BP-_______.
B. The ____________ Project is bounded by certain Town public rights-of-
way, namely ____________________________________________________ (the “Rights-of-
Way”). Certain portions of these Rights-of-Way are sometimes referred to hereinafter as the
“Licensed Areas.” In order to commence construction of the _______________ Project, the
Developer has requested that the Town grant a irrevocable license to install and use, within the
Licensed Areas, tieback anchors or soil nails and other non-vertical components of a construction
shoring system that are necessary to provide interim support for and to stabilize construction,
excavation and installation for the Developer Project and to prevent subsidence of soils during
the course of construction (the “Shoring System”). Developer has also requested that the Town
grant a irrevocable license to install and use, within the Licensed Areas, dewatering wells,
pumps, manifold piping and other elements that are necessary in connection with the dewatering
of the Developer Project site (the "Dewatering System"). The construction and installation
process for the Shoring System and the Dewatering System within the Licensed Areas is
sometimes referred to hereinafter as the “Construction.” The Town has determined to grant the
requested license in accordance with and subject to all the terms and provisions of this
Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises, and the mutual
covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Town and Developer covenant and agree as
follows:
January 5, 2021 - Page 35 of 45
2
1. Grant of License; Term.
(a) The Town hereby grants the Developer a temporary, non-exclusive
construction license within the Licensed Areas, which license is and shall be irrevocable
and coupled with an interest and non-terminable (the “License”), for the construction,
installation, operation, testing, inspection, maintenance, use and enjoyment of the
Shoring System and the Dewatering System in conjunction with and throughout the
course of the construction, installation and development of the Developer Project.
Developer agrees, in consideration of the grant of the License, that the Shoring System
and the Dewatering System shall be undertaken in material conformity with the plans and
drawings therefor submitted to and reviewed by the Town in conjunction with the
issuance or pending issuance by the Town of an excavation or building permit for the
Developer Project, as the same may be subsequently modified with the Town’s approval
(the “Plans”).
(b) The License shall become effective as of the date hereof, and shall
remain in full force and effect until the completion of the construction of the
_______________ Project, which for this purpose shall be deemed to occur (i) only at
such time as Developer secures a temporary or permanent certificate or certificates of
occupancy issued by the Town which authorizes the ongoing occupancy, use and
enjoyment of all building improvements within the Developer Project, or (ii) if and when
Developer at its election voluntarily relinquishes its rights under the License by a written
instrument to that effect executed by Developer (which written instrument shall be
recorded if this Agreement is also recorded), or (iii) if and when the Developer of the
Project fails to reasonably pursue major construction activity pursuant to the subject
building permit for a period of more than one year, at which time the Developer shall
mitigate any necessary shoring by other means. The License may be used and enjoyed
by Developer and its agents, employees, contractors, and designees, and any other agents,
contractors and invitees acting by, through or under any of them (collectively the
“Permittees”).
2. Construction Process.
(a) The Developer covenants that the Construction will be undertaken
in a good and workmanlike manner in material conformity with the Plans, and otherwise
in conformity with all applicable legal construction requirements as applied and enforced
by the Town, pursuant to customary drilling construction methods for purposes of
minimizing noise and vibration, and in accordance with other good construction practices
to avoid any physical damage to the surface of the Rights-of-Way (except as expressly
permitted hereunder), or any resulting failure of subjacent support for the surface of the
Rights-of-Way. Should there arise any failure of subjacent support for the surface of the
Rights-of-Way, Developer will be solely responsible for restorations as necessary to
bring the surface of the Rights-of-Way back into substantially the same or better
condition in which the surface existed before such damages or failure of support, and to
restore any impaired subjacent support therefor, subject to modifications that are in
conformity and/or consistent with the approved plans and specifications governing the
January 5, 2021 - Page 36 of 45
3
development of the Developer Project, or required pursuant to the Development
Agreement.
(b) The Developer will assume full responsibility for any and all
damages incurred by Utility Company (as hereinafter defined) facilities within the
Licensed Areas that may be caused by the Construction. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Utility Company” refers to any company, government entity, or agency that has legally
installed public or quasi-public utility facilities within the Licensed Areas, including, but
not limited to, Eagle River Water and Sanitation District, Excel Energy, Holy Cross
Energy, Comcast Corporation, and Qwest Corporation. Any replacements or repairs of
Utility Company facilities which are necessitated because of damage thereto caused by
the Construction shall be made at the sole expense of Developer, with the remedial work
being undertaken by Developer or the respective Utility Company as the Utility Company
may elect; if the remedial work is undertaken by the applicable Utility Company,
Developer will reimburse the Utility Company for its out-of-pocket hard construction
costs incurred therefor, provided the Utility Company shall reasonably confer with
Developer in furtherance of minimizing those costs before commencing the work. Any
such reimbursement will be due and owing within thirty (30) days after notice thereof
from the Utility Company, accompanied by paid invoices and other documentation
reasonably substantiating the incurrence and payment of the subject costs. The foregoing
obligations of Developer shall not apply to any damaged facilities that are being replaced
by other facilities in conjunction with the Developer Project and to be no longer used for
providing service. Developer will, however, bear the obligation and cost for any
relocation of Utility Company facilities previously located within the Licensed Areas
which are to be relocated under the terms of the approved plans for the Developer
Project.
3. Non-Exclusive. The License shall be non-exclusive to the extent that the
Town may retain all rights to use the Licensed Areas that are materially consistent and do not
materially interfere with the use and enjoyment of the License, the Dewatering System and the
Shoring System by Developer and the Permittees. The Town specifically agrees that the Town
shall not do or permit anything to be done which physically disturbs or impairs the function of
the Dewatering System or the Shoring System during the course of the Construction or the
development of the Developer Project.
4. Completion.
(a) Upon the completion of the construction of the Developer Project,
as such completion is defined in paragraph 1(b) above, the License shall terminate, the
Town shall hold the Licensed Areas free from the License, and Developer will have no
further right to the use and enjoyment of the License, the Dewatering System or the
Shoring System and shall be deemed to have abandoned the same. It is agreed that upon
such termination of the License, the Dewatering System and the Shoring System will be
abandoned in place within the Licensed Areas, and Developer will have no obligation or
duty to remove the same, except as provided below:
January 5, 2021 - Page 37 of 45
4
(i) Developer will remove any components of the Shoring
System and the Dewatering System located on the surface or within forty-eight
(48) inches below the surface of the Licensed Areas; and
(ii) In the event that any maintenance or new construction for
utility, public transportation or drainage facilities within the Licensed Areas,
whether undertaken by the Town, any Transportation Authority or any Utility
Company, requires excavation that necessitates the removal of components of the
Shoring System or the Dewatering System, the Town may require Developer to
bear the additional incremental, out-of-pocket hard construction costs that are
incurred by the Town or applicable Transportation Authority or Utility Company
in order to remove the subject components of the Shoring System. The Town,
Transportation Authority or Utility Company, as applicable, will confer
reasonably with Developer in furtherance of minimizing the amount of those costs
before commencing the removal work. Such incremental costs shall be paid by
Developer directly to the Town, the applicable Transportation Authority or Utility
Company within thirty (30) days after notice thereof, such notice to be
accompanied by paid invoices and other documentation reasonably substantiating
the incurrence and payment of the costs to be so reimbursed. The Town’s rights
under this paragraph (ii) shall not apply until the termination of the License, and
during the term of the License the Town will warrant and defend Developer and
the Permittees in the use and enjoyment of the License and related possession of
the Licensed Areas, without interference by third-party claims or interests. The
obligations of Developer under this paragraph (ii) may be delegated and assigned
of record, in whole or in part, to the owner from time to time of a specified
portion of the Developer Project (which may include a specified portion owned by
Developer), in which event, and notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in
paragraph 5 below, the owner from time to time of the specified portion of the
Developer Project will become solely liable for the delegated and assigned
obligations, so long as the assignee owner accepts such obligations by recorded
instrument; moreover, Developer may also delegate and assign all or part of its
obligations under this paragraph (ii) to any owners association formed with
powers of governance in connection with the Developer Project, or any
metropolitan district formed under Colorado law with jurisdiction over the
Developer Project, and (again notwithstanding the provisions to the contrary in
paragraph 5 below) such association or district shall become solely responsible
for those obligations to the extent the association or district assumes or undertakes
such obligations.
(b) Upon abandonment of the Dewatering System and the Shoring
System under paragraph 4(a) above, the Town, in turn and at its election, and without
Developer having any resulting obligation in connection therewith, may leave the
Dewatering System and the Shoring System in place or otherwise manage, treat or
dispose of the Dewatering System and the Shoring System within the Licensed Areas in
any manner permitted by law, and Developer will have no further obligation in
connection with the Dewatering System or the Shoring System from and after such
abandonment, subject, however, to Developer’ express obligations under paragraph 4(a)
January 5, 2021 - Page 38 of 45
5
above pertaining to required removals. Upon the termination of the License due to
completion of construction or otherwise, either party, upon the request of the other, shall
execute and deliver a recordable instrument confirming that such termination has
occurred.
5. Successors in Interest; Assignment. With respect to the Developer, the
License shall constitute a non-appurtenant right and interest in favor of the Developer, akin to an
easement in gross, and Developer’ interests therein and under this Agreement shall not run to the
benefit of any successor owner of the _______________ Property. However, such interests,
including the License, and/or any obligations of the Developer hereunder, may be assigned
and/or delegated by the Developer, in whole or part and pursuant to written instrument, to any
other party acquiring an ownership interest in the _____________ Property or any portion
thereof, or any party engaged in the undertaking of the _____________ Project.
Notwithstanding any such assignment or delegation or any succession of ownership interests in
the _____________ Property, the Developer will remain liable for its obligations hereunder
(subject, however, to the provisions of paragraph 4(a)(ii) above). No present owner or successor
in interest in and to the _____________ Property, or any portion thereof, will have any
obligation for any of the Developer’ obligations hereunder except as provided in any written
assumption made by such owner or successor as an assignee of Developer hereunder. In the case
of any assignment, and subject to the foregoing provisions, the term “_______________”
hereunder shall mean the assignee then holding the Developer’s rights hereunder. The License
and the terms of this Agreement shall touch and concern and run with the land as a burden and
benefit to the ownership of the Licensed Areas.
6. Monitoring. Developer shall provide for the monitoring of any movement
that may result in damage to any Town owned Structures. Such monitoring activities shall be
performed in accordance with the monitoring plan attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated
herein by this reference (the "Monitoring Plan"). Developer shall install a sufficient number of
monument measuring devices (“Monument Devices”) to establish an informational base of
existing building and improvement conditions. All Monument Devices shall be installed and
maintained in good condition at the Developer’s expense.
7. Structure Remediation. In the event that the Developer's shoring,
dewatering, and/or other construction activities cause any damage to any Structures, the
Developer shall, at its own cost and expense, repair such damage and return the Structures to
their previous existing condition or better by means permitted by law and approved by the Town.
8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado.
9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any prior or extrinsic
agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written,
are superceded hereby.
10. Waiver and Amendment. In no event shall any failure by Developer or the
Town to enforce any provision in this Agreement be deemed a waiver of the right to enforce
January 5, 2021 - Page 39 of 45
6
such provision thereafter. This Agreement may be amended, and any provision hereof may be
waived, only to the extent set forth in a written instrument executed by the party against whom
enforcement of such amendment or waiver is sought.
11. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event any legal proceeding arises out of this
