4.3 Contract Award to BFX Fire Apparatus for Type 6 Brush
Truck for 2023
Authorize the Town Manager to enter into a contract with BFX
Fire Apparatus to purchase a Type 6 Brush truck in 2023 for
the quoted price of $243,850.00.
Background: The TOV owns and operates two Type 6 Brush
Trucks. The older of the two is scheduled to be replaced in
2023 as per our HEF 10 year replacement plan. The truck
scheduled for replacement has been in service as a front line
wildland apparatus for 10 years and is beginning to show signs
of wear and increased maintenance needs. As most things
these days the delays and build times are significantly
extended. We would like to enter into this agreement as soon
as possible in hopes to receive this apparatus in the fall of
2023. The quote that we hope to award states a 365 day build
time. The original budget in the HEF plan was for $166,300.00.
With inflation to labor, vehicles and build materials this budget
number fell significantly short of the bids which were received
for the vehicle. After the RFP process we will need to approve
more funding to make this project happen.
Staff Recommendation: Authorize the Town Manager to enter
into a contract with BFX Fire Apparatus to purchase a Type 6
Brush truck in 2023 for the quoted price of $243,850.00.
4.4 Contract Award to Golden Peak Productions for the
production of the Vail Après Village Concerts and Vail's
60th Birthday Bash
Direct the Town Manager to enter into an agreement with
Golden Peak Productions, on a form approved by the Town
Attorney, for the production of the Vail Après Village Concerts
and Vail's 60th Birthday Bash in an amount not to exceed
$140,000.
Background: An RFP was published for Vail Après Village
Concerts and Vail's 60th Birthday Bash, 5 proposals were
received and an event producer was chosen for this scope of
work. Town staff and Vail Mountain staff collaborated on the
publishing of the RFP and the review of the proposals to find
the right event production partner. Five proposals were
submitted and reviewed and Golden Peak Productions was
selected for their creative proposal, experience with local and
national events, concert production and operations experience,
and extensive food and beverage and concessions
experience.
Staff Recommendation: Direct the Town Manager to enter into
an agreement with Golden Peak Productions, on a form
approved by the Town Attorney, for the production of the Vail
Après Village Concerts and Vail's 60th Birthday Bash in an
amount not to exceed $140,000.

Hello,
I understand you are trying to make money by increasing the cost of parking and decreasing the amount of free
parking hours, but I believe this is an extremely foolish cash grab. We are already living in a town struggling to hire
and retain employees. With low wages and such high costs of living we are all having to make so many sacrifices to
live and work in the town that we love. Many employees have been priced out of the town of vail and as a result are
not able to take advantage of the free in town bus, so having the parking garage free after three allows pretty much
every restaurant employee the ability to come to work. Increasing the fees per hour, parking pass rates, opening
employee lots to the public and decreasing the free parking times is a slap in the face to the locals that work in the
village and lionshead, and will ultimately hurt the town and mountain in the long run.
Sincerely,
Billy Deline

Town of Vail,
I am a lowly employee at Vail and I own a small trades business. You are dependent on people like me, but maybe I
am replaceable. Keep up these kinds of small jabs to the lowly employee and we will see if we are replaceable. I
don’t know. I don’t want to find out and it would be bad for you if we were not replaceable. My comments come
from frustrations around working in vail and having to park in vail.
First of all I have praise for the town for notifying the public of the parking rate changes and for making efforts to
provide employee housing, which the the two big employers in vail have turned their backs to. Those employers
being Vail Health and Vail Resorts, both of which get an F for employee awareness and appreciation. My wife and
friends are Vail Health employees, so I hear that side of the story as well.
But the town is not off the hook. The town of Vail states this parking rate change is in an effort to meet it
sustainability goals and green house gas emission goals. This is a way of changing behavior, but a passive way of
approaching those goals and while they are at it, they will make a bunch more money, off the backs of the
employees who can afford it least. I challenge the town to take the extra revenue from this new parking plan and
invest it in Eco transit for more service or discounted employee passes for carpooling employees or another means
of giving the lowly employee another option. Collaborate with the county with Vail Resorts, with Vail Health or tell
us how you are trying or are making efforts in these arenas. Do you worl with the Vail Valley Partnership or VRD
for solutions. They are not the names that come to mind around parking, but they seem to care about people and the
community and I’m sure they could help with solutions if this is the best you can do. What incentives do you have
for cars with 2 or more passengers or 3 or more passengers, that is a more active solution, if you are truly concerned
about sustainability and green house gas emissions. Don’t make the lowly employees beg and plead and spend time
that we don’t have trying to force the big players to work together.
This looks bad for the town, it looks like another cash grab. I grew up in the valley, I now own a business and have a
family in the valley and it is these kinds of small jabs that make me think, maybe we should move, maybe we are
replaceable, maybe the place that nurtured me to adulthood just does not care about us and our families any more.
Maybe the town of vail, vail health, and vail resorts wants this place to be a community of transient single people,
who have the flexibility to avoid these changes in the game.
Thank you for your time
Duncan

Date:Monday, October 17, 2022 6:22:19 PM
Hey TOV Council,
I understand the parking pay structure has already been set for this year, but I wanted to let
you know how it is impacting workers from the Vail Valley who don't live on the TOV free
bus line.
I am someone who has always bought the Pink Pass, and appreciated its value in the past.
However, every year, it has felt less and less valuable.
The $75 increase, on its own, is not particularly substantial, but when it brings the pass up to
$425 that is quite meaningful. Unfortunately, it feels on par with the trend by Vail Town
Council to disvalue workers over the last few years, who make the town an amazing place to
visit for our guests.
-Calling the Ford Park, Soccer Field, and Red Sandstone Parking areas "Employee" lots is
now a total misnomer. The public can now park there whenever they want for way cheaper
than the village structures and they will be overflow lots as well. These are not employee lots.
I'm not sure what the end game is, but it feels like this is a way for you all to make way more
money and screw over local workers.
-Ford Park has never had a reliable bus service. The bus often leaves early or late, which can
really impact workers trying to get in for early hours. As a ski patroller, it can really suck
when the bus pulls away early or never shows up when we have to be there early to do
avalanche control work. The weather typically sucks on these days, which is why we're there
early in the first place.
-The winter concert series has always displaced Pink Pass holders, and the alternate options
have never been communicated well, if available at all. So on weeks and weekends that are
supposed to attract more business to the TOV, essential workers (I'm going out on a limb to
assume you agree ski patrol is essential to the mountain functioning) are left scrambling,
stressed, and paying to go to work. You all have mentioned no solutions for this in '22-'23.
-Finally, the TOV's wrangling with Vail Resorts to shut down employee housing is so
upsetting and connected to the parking issue. TOV doesn't want to create more places for
workers to live, and they don't want people to be able to park near where they have to work.
The Eagle Valley transportation does not have enough volume. So... where are the workers
supposed to materialize from? The NIMBYMism is nauseating.
(On a side note, the barring of delivery vehicles from the town with the partnership with 106
West reeks of racketeering. As a local who frequents businesses in town, it has been
interesting to hear of the distributors who are not interested in serving the village any more
because of the price hike. It's really unclear who this is trying to serve; in the past I've only
seen tractor trailers in the village in the early morning, before our guests are typically out and
about. It's not as though Vail has a lack of customers. I only bring this up because I have heard
that you all are subsidizing this delivery company when you should be subsidizing employee
9
parking and living. It's really unfortunate.)
Anyway, thanks for listening, if you all are interested.

ASK: During your budget review on
Tuesday 10-18-22 please consider delaying
the West Vail portion of the roundabout
lighting project - which is currently part of
the $2.75m capital project detailed on the
right
3 Reasons to consider delaying the West Vail portion of this project:
1: Light pollution has negative effects on human health & wildlife - LED's for outdoor lighting
are particularly problematic.
Landscaping and tree growth
between the residences and the
roundabout is limited and does
not provide any light diffusion
from the bedroom levels of the
homes along Lower Traverse
Way. The berm is owned by
WEST VAIL ASSOCIATES LTD –
not Chamonix Townhomes.
Existing light sources indicated in
orange.
12
2: The West Vail Master Plan Transportation and Mobility Analysis speaks to multimodal safety
and access. Lack of lighting is not identified as an issue.
• Six locations account for 72% of West Vail
crashes
• 59% of West Vail crashes occur outside the
three gas stations
Why lack of lighting is not the safety issue:
• Two of those gas station are on the West Vail North Roundabout
• These gas stations are already extremely well-lit at all hours
• Pedestrian and bike traffic is limited during non-daylight hours
• CDOT non-motorist
crash data
indicates that the
overwhelming
majority of
incidents in Vail
occur during
daylight hours:
13
3. The West Vail Roundabouts are the “Gateway to Vail”. The West Vail Master Plan began in 2020 and
is still in the development process. Phase II: Commercial is scheduled for March-August 2023; Phase III:
Transportation and Mobility is slated for November 2023 - March 2024
The Roundabout lighting project
design began in 2018. It may be
prudent to delay/reevaluate the
West Vail Roundabout lighting
project to better align with
implementation of the master
plan

Proclamation No. 8, Series of 2022
National Friends of Libraries Week
Whereas, the Friends of Vail Public Library, revitalized in 2010, raise money that enables our library to
move from good to great -- providing the resources for additional programming, much needed equipment,
support for children’s summer reading, and special events throughout the year;
Whereas, the work of the Friends highlights, on an on-going basis, the fact that our library is the
cornerstone of the community providing opportunities for all to engage in the joy of life-long learning and
connect with the thoughts and ideas of others from ages past to the present;
Whereas, the Friends understand the critical importance of well funded libraries and advocate to ensure
that our library gets the resources it needs to provide a wide variety of services to all ages, including access
to print and electronic materials, along with expert assistance in research, readers’ advisory, and children’s
services;
Whereas, the Friends’ gift of their time and commitment to the library sets an example for all in how
volunteerism leads to positive civic engagement and the betterment of our community;
Whereas, the Friends have raised over $300,000 since 2010, and currently over 350 community members
contribute annually to the Friends. Each year we celebrate and thank our Friends by way of the annual
Champagne Celebration (captured this year by photographer, Dominique
Taylor);
Whereas, the Friends generosity has allowed the library to offer and sustain services and programs such
as:
• One Book One Valley Community Read
• StoryWalk at Bighorn park in East Vail
• Books for Babies program in partnership with Vail Health
• Betty Ford Alpine Gardens lunches for seniors
• Tech Studio upgrades
• Vail Valley Voices oral history project
• Digitization of the Vail Trail newspaper;
Whereas, National Friends of Libraries Week is coordinated by United for Libraries, a division of the
American Library Association with over 4,000 members representing hundreds of thousands of library
supporters. United for Libraries supports those who govern, promote, advocate, and fundraise for libraries,
and brings together library trustees, advocates, friends, and foundations into a partnership that creates a
powerful force for libraries in the 21st century;
Now, therefore, the Vail Town Council do hereby proclaim October 16-22, 2022, as National Friends of
Libraries week in Vail, Colorado and urge everyone to join the Friends of the Library and thank them for all
they do to make our library and community so much better.

the reduction of total miles traveled in those kinds of vehicles. She asked for more
representation on that topic and how it aligns with the sustainability plan.
Kassmel agreed to having the more specific information and context explained.
Langmaid encouraged the community to continue giving input to the Go Vail 2045 Mobility
Master Plan process. She also asked for clarification regarding the underpass construction.
Kassmel explained she was correct, the underpass was constructed with EverVail in mind, as
well as the anticipation of Timber Ridge developing into a higher density and West Vail.
Langmaid questioned the contemplation of a pedestrian overpass that would connect Middle
Creek, Residences at Main Vail, and potentially West Middle Creek over to Civic Center or the
Lionshead Parking Structure.
Kassmel responded there hadn’t been discussion for an overpass in that particular location due
to the interchange currently there, as well as the difficulty of transitioning pedestrians from street
level to overhead.
8.0 Action Items
8.1 Resolution No. 42, Series of 2022, A Resolution of the Vail Town Council
Submitting a Ballot Issue to the Registered Electors of the Town at the November 8, 2022
Special Election Regarding the Formation of the Eagle Valley Transportation Authority.
Presenter(s): Greg Hall, Director of Public Works and Transportation
Background: The Town Council passed Resolution No. 25 Series of 2022 on May 17 to enter
into an Intergovernmental Agreement to create a Regional Transportation Authority (RTA).
Based on the due diligence of the RTA formation and technical committee as well as work
provided by various consultants and outreach efforts, the RTA Formation Committee has
recommended at its August 11 meeting that each entity place the question on the ballot to ask
for voter approval to form and fund a regional transportation authority. All parties to the IGA
have indicated that they either have or intend to take action to refer the ballot question.
Staff Recommendation: Approve Resolution No. 42, Series of 2022
Hall stated during the work session on August 16, 2022 that staff presented a draft ballot
question on the formation of the Eagle Valley Transportation Authority to the Vail electorate for
the upcoming November 8, 2022 Election. The ballot question would combine both the
formation of the Transportation Authority along with a TABOR tax increase question to impose a
½ cent sales tax to support expanded transit service.
Hall explained Resolution No. 42, Series of 2022 would authorize the Town of Vail to put the
RTA Ballot question on the November 8, 2022 election ballot.
22
Town Council Meeting Minutes of September 6, 2022 Page 6
Hall referenced the Intergovernmental Agreement that Council passed on May 17, 2022
meeting had been updated and was more refined on the transition plan from Eagle County
Government providing transportation to the proposed RTA should the ballot pass.
Hall stated the RTA would be important to the community and would provide answers to a lot of
problems the Town and County are trying to solve.
Langmaid commented although there would be potentially a half a cent increase in sales tax,
the benefits of a much-improved public transportation system up and down the valley would
improve the livability of the valley and align with some of the Town’s goals.
Mason stated she was surprised at the small amount of the community members that used the
current transportation system and hoped creating the RTA would encourage more of the
community to utilize the public transportation system if the RTA was created.
Davis stated he thought it was importantfor the issue to be put on the ballot and to let voters
decide.
Hall stated if the ballot did not pass in one of the four major communities; the Town of Vail, the
Town of Avon, unincorporated Eagle County or Beaver Creek Metro District, the RTA would not
be formed.
Public comment was called. There was none.
Mire reminded Council that if the issue went on the ballot, the provisions of the Fair Campaign
Practices Act are initiated; Council can pass one Resolution in support of the issue before the
election.
Davis made a motion to approve; Coggin seconded motion passed (7-0).
8.2 Fire Free Five Community Assistance Program
Presenter(s): Paul Cada, Wildland Program Manager
Background: In Spring of 2022 the Vail Town Council funded the Fire Free Five Community
Assistance Program, this presentation will provide an update on the status of this program and
request for expansion.
Staff Recommendation: Make recommendation on future funding.
Cada presented the success of the voluntary Fire Free Five program. He explained that the
implementation exceeded expectations and asked council to fund an additional $50,000 through
the end of the year. He also asked Council if they would like to see the voluntary Fire Free Five
community assistance program continued in 2023.
Coggin asked if the town budgeted $150,000 for the community properties and $150,000 for the
Town of Vail properties and if $150,000 would cover the cost for the community properties.
Carlie Smith, Finance Director, explained that $200,000 was budgeted in 2022 for Town of Vail
buildings and another $100,000 in the 2023 five-year plan.
23
Town Council Meeting Minutes of September 6, 2022 Page 7
Cada explained the program was still in the discovery phase and that he was unsure of what the
cost would be in the upcoming year.
Public input was called. There was none.
Coggin made a motion to approve; Foley seconded motion passed (7-0).
8.3 Ordinance No. 17, Series of 2022, First Reading, An Ordinance Repealing Title 3,
Chapter 6: 'Commission on Special Events', Vail Town Code
Presenter(s): Mia Vlaar, Economic Development Director and Jeremy Gross, Special Event
Coordinator
Background: In 2004, the Town of Vail established by ordinance the Commission on Special
Events (CSE). The CSE has effectively reviewed proposals and made funding
recommendations for special events over the last 18 years, contributing to a robust and diverse
calendar of events to support the tourism and economic development goals of the town. During
this time, as the town’s staffing, finance, and operations have evolved, the roles and functions of
the CSE have also evolved, necessitating an update to the town code.
Staff Recommendation: Approve, approve with amendments or deny Ordinance 17, Series of
2022 upon First Reading.
Gross stated the Town Code was outdated and therefore staff recommendation would be for the
Town Code on the Commission on Special Events to be repealed. Gross explained the
Commission on Special events would continue forward as the Committee on Special Events, as
a non-codified advisory council structured similar to the Vail Local Marketing District Advisory
Council and Vail Economic Advisory Council. The role and responsibility of the committee
wouldn’t functionally change, however, the language in the Town Code needed to be updated to
reflect the current duties of the CSE. Gross also stated the five current members of the
Commission on Special Events would be invited to continue on as the Committee of Special
Events.
Public comment was called.
Douglas Smith, Vail resident and CSE Board member asked to amend the Town Code instead
being abolished.
Coggin and Davis recommended that two members of the Committee of Special Events be a
part of the funding committee discussion.
Mire recommended if the first reading passed to add two more motions, which would include
appointing current CSE members to the Committee of Special Events and include that the
event funding committee shall consist of two members of the Committee of Special Events.
Mire also reminded staff that should the Ordinance pass second reading, the Committee would
be required to take minutes and to fulfill the public meeting posting requirements.
Three motions:

Davis made a motion that the Event Funding Committee shall consist of two members of the
Committee on Special Events as well as staff members from Economic Development, Finance
and the Town Manager’s Office; Mason seconded motion passed (7-0).
There being no further business to come before the council, Coggin moved to adjourn the
meeting; Foley seconded motion to adjourn passed (7-0); meeting adjourned at 7:53 pm.

6. Action Items

the Town Out from Participation in the State of Colorado Family and Medical Leave
Insurance Program
Presenter(s): Krista Miller, Human Resources and Risk Management Director and Wendy
Rehnborg, Senior HR Professional
Background: In November 2020, Colorado voters approved Proposition 118, which paved the
way for a state-run paid Family Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program. Although the
program is not effective until January 2023, the Town must decide in 2022 whether to
participate in the state-run program. At the July 5 2022 Town Council meeting, the staff
recommendation was to decline participation in the state-run FAMLI program and consider
further analysis of town benefits where adjustments could be made to better align with the
FAMLI program benefits.
Staff Recommendation: Approve, approve with amendments or deny Resolution No. 43, Series
of 2022
Miller explained the Resolution was a follow up to the July 5th presentation where staff
recommended Council decline participation in the FAMLI program which would require a
Resolution be passed to opt out of the program.
Rehnborg summarized in 2020, Colorado voters approved proposition 118 which later became
the Colorado Family and Medical Leave Insurance Act.
Rehnborg stated if Council decided to opt into the FAMLI program, premiums at 0.9% of the
employee’s wage would start being paid on January 1, 2023, (the Town would pay .45% and the
employee would pay (.45%) and the benefits for the employees would not begin until January 1,
2024. Rehnborg also stated there would be a possible increase in premiums in 2025 from .09%
of the employee’s gross wage to 1.2% of their gross wage.
Rehnborg explained staff still had the option of individually enrolling in the FAMLI coverage if
Council chose to opt out and also if Council decided later on to opt into the FAMLI program,
they could do so, although there would be a three-month waiting period.
Rehnborg presented recommended enhancements that included expanded paid leave to
include part-time and seasonal staff, increase short-term disability benefits for childbirth to 12
weeks, expand allowed us of sick time for family member qualifying leave, clarify family member
definition for sick time, and expand approved leave to cover “Safe Leave” and foster care
placement.

Foley asked that staff monitor benefits to make sure the Town of Vail continues to offer a better
benefit package than the FAMLI program.
Public comment was called. There was none.
Langmaid asked staff what other communities were opting into the FAMLI program.
Miller responded to her knowledge there was only one small community opting into the program.
Foley made a motion to approve, Coggin seconded motion passed (6-0).
6.2 Ordinance No. 18, Series of 2022, First Reading, An Ordinance Making Budget
Adjustments to the Town of Vail Real Estate Transfer Tax Fund of the 2022 Budget for the
Town of Vail, Colorado, and Authorizing the Said Adjustments As Set Forth - "Booth
Heights"
Presenter(s): Carlie Smith, Finance Director
Background: Please see attached memo.
Staff Recommendation: Approve, approve with amendments or deny Ordinance 18, Series of
2022 First Reading.
Smith presented an increase to the Real Estate Transfer Fund of $12.0 million dollars to
coincide with the offer to purchase Booth Heights from Vail Resorts.
Public comment was called.
Frances Hartogh, a Vail resident, strongly supported the offer amount to purchase Booth
Heights and stated Vail Resorts should accept the town’s generous offer and expressed
concerns over Vail Resort’s questionable xxx?
Mike Browning, a Vail resident, commented on how often the bighorn sheep have been sited in
East Vail, he also stated that there was an opportunity to recognize that the bighorn sheep were
the original residents of Vail and they needed to be protected, and publicly asked Vail Resorts to
live up to their promise to not harm the environment.
Trey Milhoan, a Vail resident, stated his support of the use of RETT Funds to acquire the Booth
Height’s property by whatever means necessary and asked Council to consider acquisition of
the 209 acres north of I-70 between Main Vail and East Vail and a discontinuation ofg the
construction plans at Buzzard Park/Public Works.
Richard Leslie, a Vail resident, expressed his support of the acquisition of Booth Heights and
stated his opinion regarding the negotiation of the parcel and the amount offered.
Karen Perez- a Vail Resident, stated the process was late and should have happened at the
time of rezoning when the application went going through the PEC process and asked Council
to amend Town Code to require a development plan at the time of rezoning.
31
Town Council Meeting Minutes of September 20, 2022 Page 6
Merv Lapin, a Vail resident, supported the purchase of Booth Heights and suggested the town
stop master leasing employee housing and providing overflow parking to Vail Resorts.
William Schmick, a Vail resident, supported the purchase of Booth Heights and explained the
Town of Vail has always looked out for the community and Vail Resorts cared about PR and
expansion.
Mark Gordon, a Vail resident, stated a large amount of the community was disappointed
regarding the decision that was made earlier in the evening and requested the Council allow the
community to weigh in on the decision to spend $12.0 million to purchase Booth Heights.
Tom Vuccich, a Vail resident, explained the history of the RETT Fund, the intention for it to be
used for open space, and agreed it should be used to acquire Booth Heights.
Susan Bird, a Vail resident, suggested annexing unincorporated areas near the Town of Vail to
help strengthen RETT funds.
Langmaid expressed the importance of keeping the bighorn sheep in the area and explained
how important the parcel of land was to the herd and their survival. Langmaid also summarized
the history of Vail Resorts developing Bald Mountain Road to that parcel of land and
contractually agreed to limit the number of units in that area to approximately 250 units due to
the safety of the terrain because of the rockfall zone. She also stated Council was being fiscally
responsible, that they were not only looking out for the quarterly reports or annual budget, but
also for future generations and aggressively have pursued new housing opportunities and cited
Residences at Main Vail, a rezoning of Middle Creek, a redevelopment of Timber Ridge and
have been buying properties within the town.
Seibert explained that he never thought the community members that were pro-housing were
against the environment and because he was voting to condemn didn’t mean he was against
housing. He clarified Vail Resorts could have been a partner with the town for the current
housing opportunities that Langmaid had listed and felt that Vail Resorts hadn’t been
communicating in good faith and hadn’t been listening. Seibert hoped that Vail Resorts
accepted the offer, and the town and Vail Resorts could move forward with future housing
opportunities.
Coggin agreed with Langmaid and Seibert’s comments. He stated he was disappointed in the
situation but does not agree with the tactic and would not be supporting the ordinance.
Foley made a motion to approve, Staufer seconded motion passed (5-1, Coggin opposed).
6.3 Winter Parking Plan
Presenter(s): Greg Hall, Director of Public Works and Transportation
Background: The Parking & Mobility Task Force convened a total of six times over the summer,
meeting on 5/26, 7/1, 7/14, 7/26, 8/5 and most recently on 9/12. The final discussion was
focused on a recommendation for the winter 2022-2023 season. Since presenting to the Town
Council on August 16, presentations were also made to the Vail Chamber and Business
Association and the Vail Economic Advisory Council. Taking the input from the three
32
Town Council Meeting Minutes of September 20, 2022 Page 7
presentations, feedback received by the individual task force members and feedback from the
public , the task force refined the recommendations for this coming winter season.
Staff Recommendation: Approve the winter 2022-2023 parking and mobility program as well as
approve budget adjustments related to the winter 2022-2023 parking and mobility program.
Hall re-capped the discussion from the previous presentation to Council on August 16, 2022 and
presented the recommendations for the upcoming winter parking season.
Hall explained the initial proposed rates were reviewed based on input received from the
previous meeting. The below exhibit was included in the presentation:
Hall also explained that passes were important to allow additional flexibility in rates and
programs and target key stakeholders. He stated it was in the Town’s best interest to have a
significant number of pass holders as users of the new system would play a key component in
the collection of data on the various user group and use patterns to make
informed decisions moving forward.
Recommended Parking Pass Prices
Passes Existing Proposed
Premier $3,300 $5,500
Business Premier $2,000 $2,200
Employee $ 350 $ 425
Employee Plus $1,250 $1,850
Local $ 25 $ 50
Eagle County $ 25 $ 50
Colorado Implemented when able N/A TBD
Hall stated there would be a new marketing and communications plan implemented, explaining
in the past existing information would just be updated, but since there were so many proposed
changes, the new program would require a full marketing campaign. The marketing campaign
would include continuous communications throughout the season and would require the town’s
33
Town Council Meeting Minutes of September 20, 2022 Page 8
partners to assist in spreading the message on the changes, which would encourage guests to
come during non-peak periods or use alternative travel methods during the peak times.
Hall summarized the proposed changes as:
• Keep “Free Entry After 3”
• 2 hours free reduced to 30 min.
• Daily and overnight charges for Red Sandstone, Ford Park and Soccer Lots
• Other outlying lots: no change for now
• Increases to Peak and Non-Peak Daily Rates
• Pass Product changes
• Mobility Improvements and Incentives
• Comprehensive Marketing and Education planned
Staufer was in favor of the proposed recommendations, stating you could not have a premiere
resort experience with parking on the Frontage Roads.
Council members questioned the validation program, the capabilities of the new software, the
implementation of the new program and proposed a variety of alternative suggestions regarding
rates and incentives.
Public comment was called.
Matt Cardille of Fuzziwigs in Vail Village, provided his feedback on the proposed parking plan,
and asked for the 30-minute free be taken away altogether. He was also concerned the public
might start parking on the side streets if Frontage Road parking wasn’t available. Cardille also
stated foot traffic in the village is down this summer and thought the Frontage Road parking
might be reduced due to the softening economy. He also asked for better signage on the
Frontage Roads.
Kaye Ferry, a Vail resident, supported keeping the two hours free for everyone and get rid of the
30-minute free parking. Ferry also stated there should be a difference between a Vail local and
an Eagle County local and pass rates should reflect that.
Mark Gordan, a Vail resident, expressed his concern that the proposed changes to parking were
too complicated and simpler changes were necessary.
Karen Perez, a Vail resident, stated the new system was confusing and wasn’t user friendly.
Perez agreed that there should be a distinction between Vail and Eagle County locals and
expressed her concerns that the transit service is too sparse during some of the hours to
support the proposed changes.
Public comment ended.
Due to the amount of feedback staff received from Council, Zemler stated staff would come
back at the next meeting with a refined proposal for the winter parking plan.

Town Council Type 6 Brush Truck Memorandum- PC comments.pdf
36
TO: Vail Town Council
FROM: Public Works Department
DATE: October 18th, 2022
SUBJECT: Replace Type 6 Brush Truck
I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this memo is to request approval from the Town Council to enter into an agreement
to purchase a Type 6 Brush Truck in 2023.
II. BACKGROUND
The TOV owns and operates two Type 6 Brush Trucks. The older of the two is scheduled to be
replaced in 2023 as per our HEF 10 year replacement plan. The truck scheduled for replacement
has been in service as a front line wildland apparatus for 10 years and is beginning to show signs
of wear and increased maintenance needs. As most things these days the delays and build times
are significantly extended. We would like to enter into this agreement as soon as possible in hopes
to receive this apparatus in the fall of 2023. The quote that we hope to award states a 365 day
build time. The original budget in the HEF plan was for $166,300.00. With inflation to labor,
vehicles and build materials this budget number fell significantly short of the bids which were
received for the vehicle. After the RFP process we will need to approve more funding to make this
project happen.
III. Vendor Selection
VFES released a RFP to receive bids for the purchase of a Type 6 Brush Truck as per our
specification. The specified apparatus is a similar model to our existing fleet with updates to
incorporate new technology and safety features. The RFP was posted per TOV purchasing policies
and was forwarded to potential bidders, included companies who had previously built wildland

Date: October 18th, 2022
Subject: Special Operations Unit Purchase Request
I. SUMMARY
The Eagle County Special Operations Unit is looking to replace our robot that was made in the early
2000s and was specifically utilized as an Explosive Ordinance Disposal robot. The current robot
was received through the Military Surplus 1033 program.
While plenty of robots are available on the market, only one robot package currently offers a safe
way to breach internal and external doors without explosives or a ballistic breach and deliver
chemical munitions. That robot package is the Vantage Breacher Robot and the Vantage with
Indoor Hot Gas Delivery System produced by Transcend Robotics. This robot can breach deadbolt-
locked doors remotely so that officers do not have to be in the line of fire during a door breach. The
unique capabilities of this robot system completes this task while not using invasive techniques that
could expose subjects, innocent victims or officers to shrapnel caused by an explosive, ballistic or
manual breach technique. The robot accomplishes this by spreading the door frame with 9,000
pounds of hydraulic force via a mechanical scissor arm; then, it can push the door open, and the
second robot equipped with the Hot Gas Delivery System can enter and sweep the building or
house.
Along with battery life, connectivity issues and the limited capabilities of our current robot; we need a
system that can further prevent the need for personnel to enter a structure and cause limited
damage to a residence. Our current robot will not hold a battery charge nor work while traveling
through a house due to the range from the receiver to the robot. Currently, we can get the robot to
travel about 15 feet into a structure before the connection is lost. Since this is occurring, we must
move our team and one of our support staff into any structure we need to clear. As we all recognize,
the purpose of having a robot is for the team’s safety and limit the exposure to the team members.
Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) tactical approach to building searches and execution of
warrants is changing to allow technology to play a larger role in SWAT operations. In lieu of sending
our teammates into a location, sending in technology provides the ability to maintain our life safety
priorities and not place our officers in danger unnecessarily.
When the Vantage Robot with the Hot Gas Delivery System finds another closed/locked door, the
Vantage Breacher Robot can then breach those inside doors without ever having to send an officer
inside the house, as it can breach up to 10 entries on a single battery charge. If the Vantage Robot
with the Hot Gas Delivery System finds a subject, the robot operator can communicate via the push-
74
Town of Vail Page 2
to-talk two-way audio on that robot. Suppose the subject is found uncooperative in surrendering
from a barricaded position. In that case, the robot can deploy highly effective OC/CS pyrotechnic hot
gas indoors without exposing the flame to the building or home to avoid starting a fire, all the while
still affording the best chances of forcing the subject out of hiding. This would be a best-case
scenario as compared to the deployment of cold gas, through windows, therefore causing less
damage by the team.
These robots have a 600 feet non-line of site and a 2,500 feet line of sight range. They have a color
drive camera, pan tilt zoom (25X zoom), FLIR thermal, auto IR night vision, and push-to-talk 2-way
audio. They can carry up to 200 pounds and haul an additional 200 pounds if needed to carry our
equipment, such as our throw phone, so negotiations can continue without placing operators in
harm's way. It has a 3hr continuous runtime, with 12 hours of idle runtime, and comes with
additional robot batteries and charges per robot.
In summary, this equipment will save officers’ and subjects’ lives while increasing the overall mission
safety.
II. BACKGROUND
An Executive Order, signed by President Biden significantly limits the ability to utilize equipment
received from the 1033 program. The purchase of this robot will allow the Eagle County Special
Operations Unit to use the robot and not have any conflicts with federal or state mandates.
Technology has increased significantly since our current robot was manufactured.
III. RECOMMENDATION
Avon Police Department and the Eagle County Sheriff’s Office have agreed to share the total cost of
the robot and split the $92,000 cost between the three agencies. They are using funds from their
respective 2022 budgets. Each agency will pay $32,500 to assist in the purchase of the robot and a
small towable trailer to house the robots and other equipment that needs to be protected from
temperature variations, weather elements, and provide security for this equipment. This trailer and
equipment will be stored in the Town of Avon Public Works building, so it is centrally located for
SWAT missions within Eagle County.
Staff recommends Town Council to approve the purchase of the Vantage Robot with the Hot Gas
Delivery System and approve the allocation of funds not to exceed $97,500.00.
IV. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL
Approve the purchase of the Vantage Robot with the Hot Gas Delivery System and approve the
allocation of funds not to exceed $97,500.00.

Subject:Second Reading of Ordinance 19 Repealing and Reenacting Title 5, Chapter 11
of the Vail Town Code Concerning Abatement of Diseased Trees and Wildfire
Fuels
I.Background
Title 5, Chapter 11 of the Vail Town Code concerns the abatement of diseased trees
and wildfire fuels. Per the current Town code property owners are responsible for the
removal and disposal of diseased trees and wildfire fuels that present a threat to public
safety. This code was originally developed to address the public safety hazard
associated with the Mountain Pine Beetle epidemic of the early 2000s and was
expanded to include a broader definition of diseased trees and wildfire fuels in 2015.
Section 5-11-5. was amended during the first reading to add the following section
to address potential impacts to nesting birds:
5-11-5 (D): To protect nesting birds, no tree removal shall be required
between May 15 and August 1st unless the tree poses an imminent threat
to public safety.
II.Current Situation
Each year Vail Fire and Emergency Services (VFES) utilizes this code to address public
safety concerns a small handful of times. In most cases the code is used to educate
and inform citizen of their responsibilities to mitigate the public safety risk. In the course
of the year the department works with many willing property owners who are desiring to
mitigate wildfire risk and remove diseased trees to improve forest and landscape health.
The proposed changes in ordinance 19 address several small but key factors in
addressing public safety concerns in a timely manner.
The first proposed change relates to the methods acceptable for noticing of inspections
and violations. The currently adopted code requires that communications occur through
either certified mail or personal delivery. The proposed changes include the changes to
first class mail or personal delivery. This change allows for more economical and timely
communications from the department and does not require the owner to sign for the
letter allowing for easier access to the communication.
77
Town of Vail Page 2
The second change 5-11-10 Design Review Exemption allows for more streamline
issuance of permits. 5-11-10 A exempts removals in accordance with this chapter to be
exempted from the design review process. This exemption codifies existing
administrative practices of VFES and Community Development in the issuance of tree
removal permits for defensible space and diseased trees. Through strong working
relationships and mutual understanding of priorities VFES and Community Development
have established a set of working guidelines which address public safety concerns while
also ensuring that other Town priorities are maintained.
5-11-10 B is aimed at alleviating challenges associated with joint property ownership in
addressing public safety hazards. Under current code all owners of joint property shall
be required to receive Joint Property Sign Off to receive permission to comply with the
rest of this code. In several instances this has resulted in extended delays in property
owners complying with the previsions of this code. Removing the requirement for
consent will allow property owners to more quickly comply without the need to use the
formal abatement order process.
III.Staff Recommendations
Staff recommends the Vail Town Council approve or approve with modifications
