1. 1 Call to Order
Meeting called to order at 3:26 p.m. with the group on Zoom and several participants
gathered in the Community Development small conference room.
1.2 Zoom Meeting 1
2. Citizen Participation
2.1 Citizen Participation
Several residents of Chamonix Vail Community joined the VLHA meeting in person in
requesting to institute a system, similar to that of Miller Ranch/Eagle County, where
current owners have priority in future lotteries.
Molly Rabin, 5-year resident of Chamonix Vail pointed out stats for the neighborhood: in
the last 5 years, 6 children were born and currently there are 13 elementary age children
or younger in the community. The community is finding that smaller family members would
like to move up in size up more easily to grow in the community.
Kevin Denton, joined via zoom, informing the Authority that the HOA will have a vote later
in December in hopes to add a ROFR. The community will start with a vote and then follow
up with Ruther and the team to see if there is support and/or to hear more.
Carol Johnson, owner in Chamonix Vail, is in support of the ROFR in order for families to
move up in size. She spoke about her thoughts about the unintended consequences.
This group of owners were to the understanding that a Chamonix Vail community owner is
not allowed the "up to three" tickets for the lottery.
Robyn Smith, lives in Chamonix and serves on the planning commission. She pointed out
the simplicity of the current (housing) lottery system and quoted Ruther, "Vail's secret
sauce is our people." Smith values the contribution of families (with children) in the
5
community. Over the last 10 years, Vail has lost half of it's residence population with
children. She suggests that there is a unique environment in Chamonix Vail, and if we can
figure out how to grow lifers it would be interesting to see what they could do in the future.
Victor Hoyas, Chamonix owner, was also present.
Authority member Godec appreciates the input and would like discuss further.
Denton was glad to have the opportunity to listen and that it is obviously something to
discuss.
Anderson thanked the participants for raising the important issues in the Vail
Community. She clarified that an owner who owns deed-restricted housing, including a
Chamonix owner is still able to get the three points for the lottery.
Williams commented with her appreciation and requested if there is support to put the
topic on a future agenda and have legal weigh in if that is appropriate. She commented
to if we were to make movement in this neighborhood, to consider how it may affect
other similar neighborhoods in the Town of Vail.
Denton asked if the attorney of the HOA is the same as our attorney. Hoyas suggested
that it is a deed restriction issue. Lindstrom agreed that it is a Town deed restriction and
that it can be discussed further while thinking about other deed restrictions and
communities.
Ruther suggested working with the owners to refine a proposal, fair through some of the
trade-offs and come back to the Housing Authority. He believes there will be further
policy discussions.
