DOBSON ICE ARENA
STRUCTURAL EVALUATION OF REMODELING SCHEMES
Introduction and Summary
The John A. Dobson Ice Arena was constructed in 1979, with an addition in 2001. The
Town of Vail developed a Civic Area Plan in 2019, which identified some age-related conditions
and deficiencies of the building that were of concern and recommended consideration of
replacing or expanding the arena. Previously (in 2007), several schemes for expansion of the
arena were developed for the Vail Recreation District. The purposes of this study are:
1. Assess the existing condition of the structure of the arena to inform future decisions about
its future use and potential expansion.
2. Prepare conceptual designs of new roof structures for various expansions of the arena that
would require replacement of the current roof structure.
In brief, the existing structure is in good condition, with no visually apparent evidence of
ongoing deterioration. (There were some roof leaks in the early 1980s, which did lead to some
damage, which was repaired at the time, and there is some evidence of staining from that
episode.) The major wood components of the roof structure do not have the capacity to resist
current building code requirements for snow, and the current practice of removing snow from the
roof will need to continue. The concrete columns and foundations have the capacity to support
the required snow loads, even from roofs with larger spans.
The schemes for expansion and our findings are summarized as follows:
Scheme 1:
Brief description (see Figures 1 and 5 – all figures are bound in Appendix A following the text of
this report):
· move office, skate rental, and similar items out of the building to a new addition on the
south side, west of the lower entry, and
· install new seating between the south side of the rink and the south wall.
Findings:
· The additional seating will increase the fixed seating capacity by about 90%, compared to
the current capacity.
· If the addition to south/southwest is constrained by leaving the current access road
unchanged, the size of a one story addition there will be slightly smaller than the vacated
space within the arena, although the new addition could be two stories tall.
· The structural system and construction method for the addition would be similar to the
southeast addition constructed in 2001.
· See the prior description of the condition and capacity of the existing roof structure.

Scheme 2:
Brief description (see Figures 2, 6, and 11):
· Remove the existing roof and north wall, expand by approximately 50 feet to the north,
with seating continuing upward from the existing seating.
· Build a new roof structure for current snow load standards.
Findings:
· The additional seating area brings the total capacity to about 4.1 times current fixed
seating capacity, without including the amount gained by Scheme 1.
o Additional rest rooms and other services needed for the expansion could be
located under the new seating.
o This could be combined with Scheme 1.
· The most economical structure for the new roof is a set of long span steel trusses
supported on most of the existing concrete columns.
o Eight of the existing twelve sets of columns will be used to support the new roof.
o The existing columns and their footings are sufficient for the loads from the new
roof.
o Six new columns and foundations will be required along the north side, as well as
a new perimeter wall and foundation along that side.
o The south, east, and west sides will have new walls extending up from the
existing walls.
o The height of the new roof, if designed for reasonable economy, will be only a
few feet higher than the top of the ventilators on the existing roof, but the new
roof will appear much more massive, as shown in the figures.
o Lowering the peak of the roof probably won’t change the appearance much.
Lowering the height at the perimeter will allow it to resemble the existing
structure, although it will still be significantly higher than the edge of the existing
structure, and the weight of structural steel will increase about 75% from the more
economical solution (see Figure 10).
Scheme 3:
Brief description (see Figures 3 and 7):
· Similar to Scheme 2, but also expanding about 45 feet to the west
Findings:
· The additional seating area brings the total capacity to about 6.7 times current fixed
seating capacity, without including the amount gained by Scheme 1.
· The current west entrance will be demolished and replaced further to the west.
· The new roof structure will be essentially the same as described for Scheme 2, except
o Six of the existing twelve sets of columns and foundations will be reused.
o Ten new columns and foundations will be required.

Scheme 4:
Brief description (see Figures 4 and 8):
· Replace the current facility with a completely new building, expanding to the limits
permitted by the site
Findings:
· The seating could be about 11 times the current capacity
· The height of the roof can be reduced, when compared to Schemes 2 and 3, because the
floor of the rink could be lowered by general excavation of the site; this may require a
more robust underground drainage system.
· Without considering zoning requirements for setbacks, the site appears to be limited, so
expansion to the east and south have been constrained to smaller values than used for
expansion to the north and west in Schemes 2 and 3.
The remainder of this report will describe some of details of the study.
Evaluation of Existing Structure
The existing roof structure over the main arena space consists of twelve major beams
sloping up to a ridge beam and tied together with a steel tension ring at their lower ends. The
major beams are 12¼” wide by 69” deep glued-laminated (glulam) wood members. The lower
end of each major beam is supported on reinforced concrete columns, and four of the beams are
braced by concrete buttress walls. (The buttress walls are necessary to resist the horizontal thrust
from the beams where the edge of the roof is straight, so the tension ring is ineffective at those
locations.) The ridge beam resolves the horizontal thrust at the top of the major beams. The
major beams support smaller beams (“purlins” on the drawings) spaced about 16 feet apart. The
purlins are also glulam members, and they support 16 inch deep wood “I” joists that are spaced
two feet apart. The I joists support a plywood roof deck. The I joists and the plywood are above
the ceiling, but the purlins and the major beams are exposed below the ceiling. On each side of
the ridge beam a skylight replaces the I joists and plywood. The exterior walls are hollow
precast concrete panels. The concrete walls, columns, and buttresses are supported on spread
footings on natural soil.1 The floor in the arena is a concrete slab on the ground. The floor on
the north side steps up to accommodate bleacher seating. The floor at the upper end of the
seating extends around to the west and east and becomes a structural floor at those ends. The
structural floor continues beyond the east and west sides of the main arena to provide a roof over
ancillary spaces for locker rooms, rest rooms, mechanical equipment and storage. The 2001
addition created similar space outside the southeast wall of the arena.
1 One of the principals at J. R. Harris & Company, Gene Stevens, was on the staff at KKBNA, Inc., when the arena
was originally designed. He did the engineering design of the concrete buttresses and their foundations. He was
consulted at multiple points during this evaluation.

Visual inspections of the building were conducted by Fred Rutz on February 15 and
March 11. Brian Wilson and Shile Dong accompanied Fred on March 11. The observed
conditions were consistent with the 1978 drawings for the original construction. Photographs
were taken. Moisture contents of eight of the large glued-laminated beams were measured with a
Delmhorst J-2000 moisture meter. The measurements were taken near the bottom of the beam
where the horizontal and vertical reactions are imposed on a steel seat mounted on the concrete
column. The moisture contents ranged from 8.1 to 9.7 percent.
An analytical model of the main structure was prepared to identify the elements that
control the capacity of the roof to resist snow and wind loads and track how those forces are
transmitted through the columns, walls, and foundations to the supporting soil. We understand
that a previous study by another engineer concluded that the roof structure was not capable of
safely resisting the code-required snow load at the time of that study, but we have not seen that
report.
The required snow load has changed over time. At the time of the original design, the
roof design load recommended by the Structural Engineers Association of Colorado for Vail was
75 pounds per square foot (psf). That design load was targeted to represent a 30 year mean
recurrence interval. Safety factors in use then meant that real capacity was expected to be
substantially larger. In subsequent years building codes changed to a 50 year mean recurrence
interval for allowable stress design loads, and recently have moved to specification of loads at
the strength level based upon an acceptable probability of failure. Furthermore, building codes
now require that buildings capable of having a large number of occupants meet a more stringent
safety standard. The International Code Council, publisher of the International Building Code
(IBC) recently concluded hearings for the content of the 2024 IBC. It adopted the 2022 edition
of the standard Minimum Design Loads and Associated Requirements for Buildings and Other
Structures2 as the basis for its snow loads. Taking into account the various adjustments for
exposure, slope, and insulation, and after adjustment down to the allowable stress level for
convenience in comparing with the older requirements, the new design load for the Dobson
Arena will be 105 psf. The increase comes from four sources: changing the basic safety level
for ordinary buildings, requiring a higher safety level for buildings capable of having a large
occupancy, over 40 years of additional data concerning snow accumulation in Vail, and a more
sophisticated analysis of the data.
There have also been many changes in the methods of structural analysis. At the time the
Dobson arena was originally designed it was generally necessary to make many more
simplifying assumptions to arrive at a tractable solution than today. The three dimensional
analytical model used in this study is a type commonly used in practice today, but it was simply
not feasible in design practice in 1978. The result of the analysis is that the allowable stress
capacity of the existing roof for snow load is 45 psf. The controlling members are the large
inclined beams. The result is shown graphically in Figure 12; the numerical value shown for
each member is the ratio of the demand from the sum of self-weight plus 45 psf snow to the
capacity at allowable stress levels. The four large beams supported at the buttresses are the

members with the highest stress, and they are at the allowable capacity with the cited loads. This
value is less than the 65 psf snow load stipulated on the 1978 drawings.3 It is possible that
inclusion of some flexibility of the soil beneath the footings of the buttresses in the analysis
would lower the demand on the most highly stressed members, but it does not appear that would
change the overall answer by much. One factor that could increase the allowable snow load is
the fact that the lumber is quite dry. It appears possible that adjusting the allowable stresses for
the measured moisture content could raise the allowable load to approximately 60 psf, but that
would require further study.
The final conclusion regarding the capacity of the existing roof is that excessive depths of
snow should continue to be removed from the roof. It appears that 2½ feet is an appropriate
depth to use as a trigger for snow removal.
Further Information on the Conceptual Designs for Expansion
Scheme 1
The new seating would be accessed from the south entry, at rink level. It would be
possible to reconfigure the existing stairs to provide access from the upper level, utilizing the
east and west entries, although that would reduce the gain in seating area somewhat. The
demolition of the interior rooms in not structural. Openings can be cut in the existing exterior
wall, to provide interior connection between the new spaces and the arena. The plan shown in
Figure 1 allows most of West Meadow Drive to remain in place, except a portion of the northern
fork of the split between the Dobson Arena and the Library. However, the street would need to
be narrowed, and possibly closed, during the construction activity.
Compared with the other schemes, the amount of work, and thus the cost, is small.
Furthermore, the ice rink could remain in operation during the majority of the construction
period. When comparing the costs, it is important to include the present value of future snow
removal from the existing roof.
Schemes 2 and 3
Schemes 2 and 3 have the common features of maintaining the existing ice rink and
ancillary facilities while greatly expanding the seating capacity. For Scheme 3, much of the
added seating is not centered on the ice rink (see Figure 9). These schemes also share the feature
of supporting a significant portion of the new roof on existing foundations. Although the snow
loads are much greater than the loads for which the original foundations were designed, the
existing foundations are adequate. The large buttresses flanking the south entry were designed to
resolve a large horizontal thrust from the large glulam beams. The other foundations each
include two concrete columns, of which one was heavily loaded while the other was not. By
installing a new beam joining the tops of those columns and then placing the support for the new
3 We are not sure why 65 psf was selected at that time, rather than the 75 psf recommendation cited earlier

roof so the new load is shared equally by the two columns in each pair, their foundation is also
sufficient.
Figure 9 shows three options for the configuration of the new roof. Option a shows a
slight slope; it is sufficient for good drainage, but gently enough so that snow drifting can be
ignored. It has the disadvantage that it will look much higher than the existing roof (see Figure
6), especially when viewed from the ground. Option b in Figure 10 will reduce the apparent
height somewhat, but the weight of steel in the main truss increases by about 20 percent.
Furthermore, the steel in the secondary trusses that span to the main truss will also increase
somewhat, due to snow drifts that will form alongside the ridge of the roof. Option c is the one
that drives the 75 percent increase in truss weight cited in the introduction.
None of the options for configuration of the main truss can lower the roof so that it
resembles the current roof, because the bottom of the new roof is higher than the bottom of the
existing roof to accommodate the extra seating capacity.
There are two other features that Schemes 2 and 3 share: Each could incorporate the
work envisioned for Scheme 1, thus the additional seating capacity for these schemes could be
larger than given in the introduction. And the expansion to the north, which was based upon the
cited conceptual planning studies, appears to be uncomfortably close to the property line to the
north.
Scheme 4
The new roof for Scheme 4 is shown to be similar to those for Schemes 2 and 3, but there
is freedom to find different configurations, because there is no need to locate supports at the
existing foundations. Even with excavation to lower the rink, it is likely that any new roof will
look much higher than the existing roof, because the underside of the roof structure will still be
higher than the underside of the existing roof. We have shown that Scheme 4 does not extend
quite as far to the north as Schemes 2 and 3, given the concern about the property line to the
north. The hypothetical layout superimposed over the arena assumed equal expansion on all
sides, which creates potential encroachment over the north property line, Middle Creek, and
West Meadow Drive. If the most capacity is desired, a refined design which lessens seating
capacity on the constrained edges would need to be developed. Even if West Meadow Drive is
not realigned, it might have to be closed during parts of the construction.

Introduction and Methodology
o Winter 2021/22 surveys were collected through the Discover
Vail WiFi –it’s the same method used since summer 2020 for
tracking seasonal visitation patterns in winter and summer.
o 1,159 respondents to the survey -includes overnight and day
visitors, seasonal residents, and full-time local residents.
o This report highlights responses collected between November
2021 and April 2022.

Overview of Key Findings
o Travel increased throughout winter 21/22, Vail occupancies were up consistently
throughout this past winter when compared to 20/21. Vehicle counts from parking
structures and lots were also up. By every measure, this past winter showed
recovery.
o Satisfaction with various Vail experiences generally held strong. However, visitors
experienced continued and increased frustration with finding parking in Vail this
winter, there were declining ratings as well as negative open-ended comments.
o The closely watched Net Promoter Score (NPS) showed significant declines in the
early season, but it recovered later in the season and ended up about close to level
(67 compared to 65 in 20/21). We do see differences in NPS by different visitor
types –i.e. Overnight compared to Day. Visitors.
o Use of Vail public transportation and the Vail Welcome Centers increased This
suggests that while the ongoing pandemic may have deterred long-distance travelers
from using these resources, this wariness has started to subside.

Vail America Days Recap
July 19, 2022 - Page 72 of 102
To: Mayor and Town Council
From: Economic Development
Date: July 19, 2022
Subject: Vail America Days Recap and Planning
1. Background
Vail America Days has historically been one of the most beloved and unique days in
Vail, appreciated by generations of residents, visitors and business owners. Vail
America Days patriotic celebration is comprised of several key components: The Vail
America Days parade, Bravo! Vail’s Patriotic Concert at the Gerald R. Ford
Amphitheater, and the fireworks display after dark. This memo will address the
elements that the town manages: the parade and fireworks.
The return of the parade in 2022 was generally positively received. Crowds in the village
after the event were celebratory and happy. Wi-Fi data shows that visitation on the 4th of
July increased over both 2021 and 2020, with over 28,000 visits in 2022 compared to
25,000 in 2020. The newly commissioned drone show received mixed reviews, with
opportunities to improve the viewing experience. Learnings and feedback gathered from
the community on the parade and drone show will be addressed for future events.
Staff is requesting feedback from Town Council on the July 4th festivities, including a
vision for how the event can honor the past celebrations along with newer ways to
engage our guests and citizens.
America Days Parade
A colorful celebration of Vail’s small-town character, the parade has been recognized as
the largest Independence Day parade in the Rockies. The parade ran each year on the
fourth of July continuously until the summer of 2020, when due to public health
restrictions, an innovative stationary parade was hosted. The stationary parade was
repeated in 2021 in response to outcomes of the Covid 19 pandemic. In March of 2022,
town council approved the plan to return to a traditional parade, and an RFP to produce
the event was subsequently published. In years leading up through 2019, the parade
was organized by Highline Sports and Entertainment with Peggy Wolfe in the lead. In
2022 Laurie Asmussen with Eagle Valley Events, who had organized the parade in
years past, was chosen as the event producer.

Fireworks Show
The fireworks show on the 4th of July is also a long-standing tradition and a popular
attraction. Over the last few years, the fireworks show has been canceled more
frequently in response to large fires in the region and dry conditions locally. The
decision to host a fireworks show is a joint decision between the United States Forest
Service, Vail Resorts, who provides the venue to shoot the fireworks from, and the town
of Vail. Fuel moisture levels, long term weather forecast, fire department resources,
USFS resources, and Vail Mountain resources all come into play as the fourth of July
approaches. After the 2021 show was canceled due to dry conditions, staff was tasked
with evaluating alternatives to the fireworks show. Laser shows and drone shows were
the top options considered to replace fireworks, with both options being more costly but
less reliant on long-term weather patterns and only impacted by rain at show time.
Future Vail America Days
The economic development team requests direction from the town council as outlined in
the questions below about the parade and fireworks show.
• What is the vision for the Vail America Days Parade?
o How many floats?
o What type of floats?
o What type of groups are participating?
Are there necessary or desirable floats, for example a marching
band, a group of children on decorated bikes?
o Should the parade include several musical floats? How many?
o How long should the parade last?
o Should the town offer post-parade activities? Or is the parade enough until
the evening fireworks show?
• Fireworks Show - Evening Activation
o Should fireworks be planned for July 4th, 2023, understanding the weather
dependency, agencies involved, and possibility of cancellation?
o If so, please consider:
If fireworks are planned and later canceled, the town should be able
to offer small village activations such as silent disco.
o If not, what would the council like to see? Council’s vision for an
alternative to the fireworks show, should it be canceled, can be planned
and budgeted for 2023.
Given the short time frame from cancelation to July 4th, the ability to
plan and execute an alternative at scale is limited.
Action Requested of Council
Provide direction based on the above questions on the parade and fireworks show to
enable staff to begin planning for the 2023 event.

I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this item is to provide an overview of the process the town is undertaking
to switch the energy source for the Vail Village snowmelt system from natural gas to
electricity.
The item includes:
An overview of the steps taken to date
Further study and power agreements needed to implement the multi-year project.
II. BACKGROUND
The Town of Vail has many snowmelt boiler systems throughout the Town. There are
three types, those which operate off a building’s boiler, those of a small size single boiler
which operate independently of the building’s boiler and finally the large snowmelt boiler
plants. These boiler plants are sized for melting large areas of the villages, have multiple
boilers and controls to undertake this task. It is these large systems which contribute the
largest amount Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) to the town’s inventory, preventing
the town from making significant reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to meet
the town’s climate goals, and consistently resulting in a conditional certification through
the Mountain Ideal standard as a Sustainable Destination.
The Village snowmelt system was designed to operate in both an idle mode and a melt
mode in order to provide a minimum water temperature to circulate through the snowmelt
tubing. It was discovered after years of operating the Village system that the joints for the
underground mains were of a metric size and the pipe is an imperial size resulting in a
close fit, but not enough to avoid leaks. By running the system at the higher melt mode
there is just enough expansion of the pipe to seal the leak, causing the system to run
more inefficiently than in previous years to avoid the leakage of the water glycol solution.
III. WORK COMPLETED TO DATE
The Town of Vail staff have been working on a plan to replace the Vail Village Snowmelt
boilers when they reach the end of their useful life. The main boiler plant of 5 boilers were
installed in 2003 and 2004. The second boiler plant of 3 boilers was installed in 2007 and
July 19, 2022 - Page 76 of 102
Town of Vail Page 2
2008. The Vail Town Council has directed staff to analyze and implement the
replacement of these gas fired boilers with electric boilers. We have engaged
consultants, manufactures as well as conducted meetings with Holy Cross Energy to
better understand the full impact of such a transition. The initial studies of conversion
determined it is a substantial undertaking, both in additional infrastructure and energy
costs. The town has reviewed various options to have a renewal energy system operate
with alternative fuels, solar, or ground source heat pumps as well as air sourced heat
exchangers, which to this point has not produced results which are promising,
There are many unanswered questions regarding the conversion from natural gas to
electric boilers, size of the total electrical system for electric boilers, car charging and
additional bus charging capabilities, total cost of running the system based on demand
and rates. In order to better inform the town’s team as well as Holy Cross Energy on total
load requirements, the Town of Vail initiated a smaller gas boiler conversion to an electric
boiler last fall. The ongoing global supply chain issues caused a delay in installation,
missing the winter snowmelt season. The purpose of the smaller installation was to
acquire data on the energy demand use, as well as snowmelt capabilities. The Holy
Cross hourly data establishes not only the usage but by rate structure (demand rates, off-
peak operation, etc.) which is important to better understand the impacts to their system.
Vail Village has two snowmelt plants. One operates with five 4.5 million BTU boilers and
the second has three 4.5 million BTU boilers. In the initial search staff was unable to
locate an electric boiler large enough to provide this energy output. Staff has since found
a boiler which meets this energy output that also fits within the space available in the
parking structures. Given the weight and size of the unit the structural integrity of the
space will need to be verified by an engineer and assembly design will determine if
building modifications will be required.
IV. NEXT STEPS
The next step is to install the new electric boiler in Lionshead this summer, obtain data
needed to better understand the operating characteristics of energy use, energy costs
reliability and performance.
A concurrent study will be undertaken to further size the significant electrical system
upgrades needed to power not only the electric boiler conversion but design a system
which can be scalable to also handle the need in the future to provide significant
additional car charging capabilities in the structure. As it stands the five boilers alone will
require three systems of the equivalent size of electrical distribution of the town’s recently
installed electric service for the bus barn electric charging system. This is a very large
installation. Placement of the overall electrical system needed to power the electric
boilers is challenging both from an aesthetic standpoint but more importantly finding a
location near both the Holy Cross Energy system and the boilers themselves.
Once we have determined the electrical supply and electrical system upgrades and site
location around the structure needed to allow for the initial conversion as well as future
charging expansion, pricing can be provided for this portion of the project in addition to
the purchase and installation of the boilers.
July 19, 2022 - Page 77 of 102
Town of Vail Page 3
The data obtained over the winter will be used to understand the variety of the demand,
reliability of the system and initial pricing structure in negotiations with Holy Cross Energy
for an appropriate electric utility rate and then extrapolate the use and cost to the larger
system to understand the projected operating cost of the electric boilers.
One item that continues to be broached is if there are secondary uses for the
infrastructure being installed which can be a beneficial component for Holy Cross Energy
in order to have the overall project meet the utility Beneficial Electrification guidance.
Beneficial electrification is a term that refers to the emissions and cost reductions that
result from replacing fossil fuels with electricity and helping to improve electric grid
management. The term represents an effort to find a favorable balance between
consumers, utilities, and the environment which therefore may qualify for potential grant
funding, a favorable rate structure or infrastructure cost share arrangements which could
be supported by Holy Cross through partnership. Determining whether there is a
beneficial electrification qualification to develop an appropriate rate structure requires
reliable data and long-term forecasting to ensure financial sustainability and guide future
planning town wide.

4.Work Session
4.1. The West Vail Master Plan, adopted in November 2021, recommended two
new zone districts. These new zone districts were envisioned to address
areas of W est Vail with a high number of existing non-conformities, older
structures, and proximity to transit. These two proposed zone districts, West
Vail Multiple Family 1 and W est Vail Multiple Family 2, allow for higher levels
of density to better match the existing built conditions and are meant to
support growth in the number of deed restricted units in Vail. The analysis
and presentation for this work session will focus on the implementation of
West Vail Multiple Family 1 and the introduction of West Vail Multiple Family
2.
Applicant:Town of Vail, represented by S E Group
Planner:Matt Gennett
Commissioner Rediker joins the meeting.
Ellie Wachtel with S E Group gives a presentation. She addresses the
July 19, 2022 - Page 89 of 102
changes from J uly 11th. She recaps the minimum density figures for the
zone district from the previous meeting. She walks through example lots in
the W est Vail Multiple Family 1 (W V MF 1) area.
Gillette asks about the public comment that was received.
Roy recaps the correspondence in regard to the property at 2059 Chamonix
Lane.
Gillette and Roy discuss requirements around deed restrictions.
There is discussion regarding rebuilding a non-conforming structure in the
event of a fire, and the requirements as to applications in those cases. The
P E C requests staff brings up the nonconforming section to Town Council,
specifically that the amount of time in the event of a disaster be extended to
two years instead of one that someone must initiate rebuilding to be able to
rebuild the existing conditions.
Wachtel looks at the example sites with a parking ratio of 1.5 spaces per unit
as opposed to 1 space previously.
Pratt and Wachtel discuss the appropriate number for parking requirements.
Pratt suggests tying the required parking to the unit size, Spence says a
graduated system with GRFA could be looked at.
Lipnick asks about site coverage considerations, W achtel and Spence talk
about the potential appropriate zoning standard based on the examples
provided.
Commissioners and Spence discuss a density bonus, Spence clarifies that
this is not a bonus but rather adjusting the density in the proposed zone
district.
Lipnick asks about the appropriate zoning requirement for landscaping.
There is discussion as to the appropriate balance between zoning
standards.
Lipnick asks about potentially raising the required number of deed
restrictions. Commissioners and Spence discuss the economics of that
idea. Gillette talks about the deed restriction discussion as part of the master
plan. Phillips says we have to strike the balance between financial feasibility
and contributing to workforce housing. Perez and Pratt further address the
master plan process.
There is further discussion regarding the suitable parking requirements.
Spence says there is hope the market may incentivize more spaces per unit
than the minimum required. Wachtel says a greater parking area could be
accommodated by lowering the landscaping requirements. Gillette asks for
further numerical study of the parking requirements on the example lots.
Rediker is also concerned about under-parking the area and thinks the
requirements should match the rest of the town.
Perez says decreased parking requirements in Denver did encourage
people to use transit and own fewer cars. There is a balance there to be
found. J ensen says it premature for the town to back off parking
requirements, Vail is more of a rural environment.
July 19, 2022 - Page 90 of 102
Wachtel presents on the proposed W est Vail Multiple Family 2 (W V MF 2)
district. Wachtel walks through three examples of representative lots in the
area.
There is discussion about required deed restrictions on small lots. Rediker
has some concerns about minimum density requirements. Roy suggests that
if the minimum density requirement is 1, potentially that single unit would not
have to be deed restricted.
Pratt discusses the progression of E HU requirements in the town. He is
concerned that there are situations in this area whereas proposed a single-
family home would have to be redeveloped with a deed restricted single unit.
Rediker says he does have some legal concerns; Roy says Staff can follow
up on those. The commissioners express that the master planning process
the intent was to incentivize redevelopment at higher density but there are
concerns with a minimum density requirement. Roy suggests potential
language about being able to redevelop to a minimum density or the existing
density, whichever is less.
Gillette talks about the existing character of the areas and balancing the
proposals with that. There is discussion of the zoning maps in the master
plan process.

VI. BOOTH LAKE TRAILHEAD PERMANENT RESTROOM
All site work including utilities, installation of the building foundation, and parking lot
paving/grading is complete. Unfortunately, production of the new restroom has been delayed by
the factory. Drawings are complete, and it is projected they will start fabrication in September.
However, there is no estimated delivery date, and staff anticipates the new restroom will be fully
completed by spring 2023.
VII. SHIFT EBIKE SHARE PROGRAM EAST VAIL RIDERSHIP
The Shift Bike electric bike share program kicked off June 7. It has seen great ridership
numbers in its first month with 2,500 rides over 7,000 miles. A hub station was placed at Booth
Lake trailhead to encourage trail users to “Bike it to Hike it” as an alternative to taking the bus.
In the first month of the program, 34 rides started or ended at Booth Lake trailhead, most
starting or ending at the Vail Transportation Center hub station. Additional marketing will be
done to encourage use of the Shift Bike Program to access Booth Lake trail.
Currently, there are two other East Vail stations. The Pitkin Creek bus stop hub station has had
167 trips start or end at that location and Bighorn Park has had 97 trips start or end there. If
Shift Bike is expanded in 2023, additional hub stations can be considered at other popular East
Vail trailhead locations.
VIII. VAIL MOUNTAIN SCHOOL PARKING LOT UPDATE
The Vail Mountain School representative reports a significant decrease of hiker parking. Over the
4th of July holiday weekend, staff turned away about 100 hikers daily. They recently have
reinstalled a counter to help determine the public usage of the lot.
July 19, 2022 - Page 98 of 102
IX. GORE TRAILHEAD PARKING MANAGEMENT UPDATE
Staff met with USFS personnel on Monday, July 18 to discuss a bus turnaround, future parking,
and operations. A design for the turnaround will be submitted to CDOT for review.
X. TRAIL HOSTS UPDATE
The Trail Host season is from June 24, 2022, through September 4, 2022.
Observations from the hosts are:
• Hikers are more spread out among the East Vail trails
• Booth Lake is still the busiest trail
• Increase of hikers using the bus to access all the East Vail trails
