March 2, 2009
Planner: Warren Campbell
The information contained in this file pertains to the
discussion which occurred regarding the collocation of a
transit center and employee housing on the North Day Lot.
After several design iterations and multiple public reviews it
was determined that the Town did not want to pursue
anything more than skier drop-off and employee housing on
the site, both of which were obligation of Vail resorts from
the Arabelle project. These items are included with the
approved plans for the North Day Lot simply to serve as a
history for future inquiries regarding the North Day Lot.

Hello Everyone:
Below is a brief summary of the comments and conclusions from the past two
meetings on the North Day Lot project. If there is something you do not
agree with please let me know.
Friday's Meeting at Public Works 12/21/07:
Temporary Skier Drop off:
Hall
Bridge over entrance is not required for pedestrian path per Greg
NDL in General:
'~ ~ Look at resolving traffic conflicts and traffic flow
Look at development plan scenarios encroaching into the setbacks
along the north side. Can look at encroaching on TOV land but will require
convincing of Town Council and could prove difficult.
When the transportation plan was contemplated in 1998 the buses
were smaller and required less space
Buses will not be parked for extended periods of time as they do at
the Vail Transportation Center
The Town's funding for the construction of the transportation
facility needs to be identified or secured so that we don't move forward and
get approval for a facility that cannot be funded
Meeting with Warren and George 12/27/07:
Temporary Skier Drop off:
George felt that plan could be processed as a DRB application rather
than a PEC application but would need to discuss with Greg Hall
Submit a letter showing the CDOT access permit had been applied for
with application

NDL in General
Staff to discuss transportation programming (i.e., types of users
and numbers of bus stops/spaces to be provided) and funding internally to
provide VR with some direction
Submittal does not require an EIR but would require drainage study
and traffic study (soils if available)
Employee parking should be considered on-site in addition to parking
necessary for employee housing
Provide letter or other proof that submittal was also made to CDOT
Provide plans or obtain signoffs from utilities providers with
application
MPG to begin drafting master plan amendment language to run by staff
transportation area
Need to look as closely at pedestrian circulation as vehicles in
Consider clear illustrations of circulation
Need to have a plan for no net loss of parking (VR indicated it to
be provided in Ever Vail parking structure as currently planned)
Walls limited in height to 6' -look at screening of buses more
internal to the bus stop area instead of along the exterior
Town Council hearing on Jan. 8 to discuss master plan (education
session)
Town Council hearing on Jan. 22 to further discuss master plan and
potential amendments thereto
Meet every Thursday at 10:30 am instead of bi-weekly
