Matters from the Chairman and Authority Members
Presenter: Steve Lindstrom, Chairman
An update was given on the Eagle Vail CDOT parcel. Dylan Roberts has been
working with the governor to get CDOT to move and take advantage of that site for
Housing. The goal is to move the CDOT facility to another landlord parcel to free up
the parcel for the Town’s housing efforts. CDOT’s work is underway to finalize a
state appraisal and environmental assessment, as soon as the request for bids is
received from CDOT, involvement from VLHA is anticipated as the Town of Vail puts
together an offer to acquire the property. The Housing department will provide
regular updates to the Vail Local Housing Authority and will get the authority fully
involved.
Town Council will discuss the various subcommittee assignments and board
appointments on the upcoming meeting on December 21, 2021, Authority members
are encouraged to attend or listen to the meeting for updates on this matter.
Also, on the Town Council meeting on December 21, 2021, the West Vail Master
plan (WVMP) team will provide an update on the WVMP and a series of next steps,
Authority members are encouraged to attend. It is important to stay updated on the
WVMP revamping of zoning for the outline subdivisions to ensure we don’t lose
housing in grandfathered parts of the Town.
Ballot initiative 2A authorizing an increase of 0.5% in the town’s existing sales tax
passed. Discussion ensued regarding if the Town will take an administrative fee out
of the sales tax revenue collected for Housing, Town staff is advised to monitor the
budget process and housing revenues.
Authority members would like to hold one on one lunches with Council members
after first of year to give them an update on Housing initiatives.
The Town Council will consider in second reading Ordinance No. 24, which is an
ordinance proposed to establish a $250 administrative penalty for those deed
restricted owners that fail to comply with the Feb 1 annual deadline. The hope is
that this fee is viewed as an incentive not a penalty. The administrative fee is not in
place of submitting the documentation on time nor does it replace the obligation to
comply with all other terms of the deed restriction.
The Authority will be given an update of the proposed abatements to the Town’s
commercials linkage and residential linkage and inclusionary zoning ordinances
and development impact obligations on the first meeting in January 2022 so a
recommendation from VLHA can be draft to Town Council and presented the first
quarter of 2022.
The short-term rental (STR) study is underway, Town Council asked staff to put
together and present some additional study and data on STR and the impact within
the Town of Vail. Economic and Planning Systems has been working with staff on
this and a preliminary update from Town staff will be provided on the January 4,
2022 Town Council meeting. It is anticipated that the VLHA will have an opportunity
to provide recommendations on policy adoption, regulation, or no action as it
related to STR’s.
The annual compliance verification process is underway, the first round of letters
was sent reminding owners of the Feb 1 obligation.
The Housing departing is working with communications on a marketing video about
Vail InDEED in cooperation with lenders, brokers and Vail InDEED property owners
to explain the how to and why the community should consider Vail InDEED.
Moffet made a motion to the regular meeting and enter executive session.
