Presenter(s): George Ruther Wilkins moved to approve the resolution. MOTION: WILKINS SECOND: DENTON VOTE: 5-0 APPROVED 4.2 Goals and Recommendations for the Entitlement Process Presenter(s): George Ruther, Director of Housing and Steve Lindstrom, VLHA Chairman The Authority discussed next steps based on the overview process that town staff member, Matt Gennett presented to the Authority a few weeks ago. Lindstrom used an example of the recent review of an application to review the rezoning of Middle Creek at PEC. The discussion was tabled as the staff has three sets of demands to work on. The request of council to address the entitlement process will not happen until the next meeting or two as it is not to be focused on this particular project. Ruther suggests to present some objectives and begin the Authoritys discussion there and aim to take a different perspective of how do we get to yes. Anything we can from an objective standpoint to minimize development risk it might garner greater support from the private sector. Conversations ensued around it being more of a facilitating role vs a regulating role for staff to use expert knowledge and building code. Council will be able to assist with Council and then it is enforced at staff level. Vails New Dawn is a good example of the public and private sector working together and process was changed in order to be successful. This was a compelling public interested that required a streamlined process. Consideration of fee structures is another consideration. Authority will continue to work on refining objectives, ideas and narrowing it down to main points for future discussion. This will help to guide which strategies to pursue. 5.
