Another local develoPer had
ceen interested in Purchasing
bhe plot from Brown in order to
put up five cluster homes, ac-
cording to Anderson, but felt
Brown's asking Price wan way
[oo high.
Another concern Beringause
hail was landscaping. His un-
ilerstanding of the ProPosed
landscaping was that onlY a
few, very small trees were
going to be planted and that all
the present aspen on the site
would be removed.
Knudtsen said this is not the
case. The Vail Design Review
board required tF^at all existing
trees be kept, and a total of 168
treea be atlded to the existing
landscaping plans, including 94
aspen, 57 spruce, anil 1? moun-
tsin ash. Knudtsen insists thie i6
'headg and shoultlers above the
amount (of trees) normallY re-
quired," for landscaping.
Knudtsen admite the Vail
Design Review Board was
'lirnited in the extent of our re-
view." For instance, he men-
tions, "there was no opportun-
ity to discuss density or park-
ing, because of the court order."
Despite their limitations,
Knuilisen feels that the Vail
Design Review Board "did a
very good job working with
Brown to improve the project
using the criteria we had."
Some of the changes the
boerd ilid suggest and Brown
has agreed to are the additional
landscaping, upgtadee from
asphalt to concrete Paving for
aeslhetic reasons (as requireil in
Vail), an upgrade from timber
to boulder retaining walls, and
internal automobile access to
the 16 units (instead of street
access and street-facing
garages).
Knudsten said the tovm sent
out notification to sll Int G-4
neighbors regarding the design
review neetings, but had little
public input
He says the goal is to "get the
communi$r involved."
Brown, too, ie concerned
about misrepresentation. He is
concerned that all the confugion
sunounding the zoning etatus
ofhis pa.rcel is deterring sales.
He says people "cannot eon-
ceive that it is not zo,ned', but
exempt.
Although Brown hae not
engaged a conhactor yet, or ap-
plied for a building permit his
plans for his 16 units currently
are fe four-be droom, four-hath
townhomes with between 2700
and 3,000 square feet space.
He also mentions the town-
homee would have vanious
amenitiee "not found in most
townhomesr" such as study ar-
eas, and equipment and mud
rooms.
Brown feels that he has more
than complied with all of the
Town of Vail's recommenda-
tions and that there is "a poten-
tial for selling there (Lot G,4)."
Brown says his goal a.s a de-
neloper is to "provide the esnre
type of luxurious condos thst
are now selling in the market."

Sir or Madam:
l am a "Znd home" reBident of vail- and own Unlt 4 of Elger
Chalet, 1350 Sandstone Drive. f am addressing Phase ff of
the proposed "OVERLOOK'' project. f certainly have no grounds
to object to then building on that property but I am concerned
about the heiqht of their proposed building.
f hope that they v11L be within Vail "code' as to the nunber
of levels and height. vhen they get their building permit. I
1rouLd hate to lose my great view of vail Village by a codeviolation.
Thank you for permitting me to share my concern.
SincereJ"y yours,

MEMORANDUM
File on Lot G4, Lionsridge Filing #2, AKA the Stu Brown property
Andy Knudtsen
"What zoning standards apply to this property, given the complex legal
history?"
February 26, 1993
Per a discussion with Larry Eskwith on Friday, February 26, 1993, the court decision
number 3459 and the Town Council resolution number 5 of series 1981 determine the
development potential for this lot tor the number of dwelling units only. Development
standards for retaining wall height, building height, parking requirements, site
coverage, landscaping, GRFA, etc. etc. are based on the Residential Cluster zone
district standards, Supplemental Regulation Standards, Off-street parking standards,
Definitions, and other zoning standards found in the Vail Municipal Code. DRB
review is mandatory and all standards must be complied with.
Incidentally, I spoke with Jay Peterson who said he has been involved with the
situation in the past and asked him how the court decision spoke to zoning standards
other than number of units. lt was his unofficial recolleclion that standards such as
retaining wall heights, GRFA, building height, etc. would be determined by the current
standards of the Vail Municipal Code.

Dear Stewart:
This l-etter is in response to your questions concerning the
need for the future development of Lot G-4, Lionrs Ridge
Subdivision No. 2 to go through the Deslgn Beview Board
process. It is my opinion that lt must be reviewed by
the DRB for the followlng reasons:
(1) The lawsuit between you and tbe Town addressed
zoning and d,evelopment standards, i.€. density, setbacks,
bul-k, parking, etc. and not design. Therefore, the future
development shouLd be revlewed to insure the suitablllty,
from a visual viewpoint, of the development.
(2) Design Review is not a zonlng natter' eveu though
it is contained ln the zoning section of the Vall Municlpal
Code and therefore wouLd not be subiest to the Stipulation
or Court Order.
(3) There ts io architectural control comittee for
the Lion's Ridge Subdivision No. 2, to revlew applications
and ensure the approprlateness of proposed developments and
compllance with the covenants.
Respec fully,

Zoning: The lot is withjn the boundaries of land annexedto the Town of Vai'l in December, 1980. Prior to annexation theDistrict Court for Eagle County had, by judgment entqred 0ctober
1980, afflrmed the owner's grandfather right to build 40 condo-
miniums on the'l of free from any governmental controls except the
Eagle County Subdivision Regu'lations adopted in 1976 and the Unif
Buildjng Code adopted in'1976. The effect of this decision was to
render. deve'lopment of the lot free from any and al'l zoning contro
vrhatever, and to f ree i t froril provi si ons of the Un;i'lorm Bui 1d'ing
Code enacted after the '1975 revision. Subsequently, the Town of
Vai'l agreed to give recognition to the owner's grandfather rights
incuding the owners freedom from zoning controls, jn return for
the ownerrs reducing the maximum number of units a'l 'l owable from
40 to 30. This agreementn which is jn effect today, and which
wil'l remain in effect indefinite'ly, js embodied in a stipulatedjudgment of the District Court for Eag)e County entered on Feb-
ruaiy 4, l98l , and thus embodied, the agreement has the force of
law. Copies if the court judgment are availab'le upon request.

Dear Mr. Brown:
Tbank you for your application for vacation by the Town ofcertaln easements on Lot G-4, Lion.rs Ridge Subdivislon No. 2.
After review and discussion by our T.own staff of all mattersrelevant to this vacation I feel it would not be in the bestinterest of the Town at thls time to vacate such easement.Snow and related adverse weather conditlons during thewinter months require a safe off-road site for snow plowedoff of the road. It ls my understanding that by abandonlngsuch easement we would cause increased safet;r'problems.
Therefore, I cannot recommend to the Town Council tbat tbeyconsider abaudoning this easement.
Sincerely yours,

Plaintiff '
vs.
LES DOUGLAS and THE BOARD
OF COUNEY COMMISSIONERS OF
TUE COT'NTY OF EAG&B,
FTNDINGS OF FACT,
CONCLUSIONS OF tAW
AND JUDGMENT
Defendants.
mIS MATTER \tas tried to the Court without jury, and
alL parties were represented by counsel .
FINDINGS OF FACT
(1) Ptaintiff Stewart H. Brotrn 'is the oldner of Lot
G-4, Lionts Ridge Subdivision, filing no. 2, located in Eagle
County adjacent to ttre L,own of Vail, Colorado. tionrs Ridge
Subdivision No. 2 received final plat approval from the Board
of County Commissioners on September 5, Lg72. Such approval
having been granted under the EagJ.e County Subdivision Regu-
lations which were then in effect; having been qdopted in the
year 1-971.
l2l The plat of Lionrs Ridge Subdivision Nc,. 2
incorporated by reference protective covenants of that sub-
dl-vision' and under such covenants Lot G-4 was classified a
I'commercial lot", and under the covenants rtas restricted to
conmercial use "for condominiums, multiple-fanily residential-
purposes, apartments, restaurant,s, motel s, hotels, Iodgesr PEo-
fessional offices and medical cLinj-cs, retail shops, service
shops (excluding autonobile service station) ".'rf.l
(3) After Pl-aintiff purchased Lot G-4, Serrate Bil-I 35
was enacted into law, and, in accordance with the interpretations
given to the act, it became necessary for conc'lominiurn developer to
submit his condominj.um plan for subdivision aFproval even if his
buiLding site was l-ocated ln a previously approved sutrdivision
allowing cqndominium or multiple-fanily development.
(4) The approved density for Lot G-4 as shown on the
preliminary plat for tion's Ridge Subdivision which was subse-
quently finalized is 40 units.
(5) Plaintiff purchased Lot G-4 in December'of L9'12
at a purchase.price of $761000. The purchase price Sraid was con-
sistent with the commercia'L designation of Lot G-4, and was in
excess of the price then being paid for residential sites in the
sarne vici"nity by some $45,000 to S50,000. Plaintiff paid such
purchase price with the knowl-edge of the crimmercial desigmation
of the Lot and the altowable density under the covenants of 40
units.
(6) In September of Lg73, Ea91e County adopted the
Eagle County Building Resolution which incorporated by referen<:e
the Uniform Building Code.
(7J In early L974, Plaintiff, as the.owner of Lot G-4'
and Dean t. Knox, the owner of Lot A-9 of Lion's Ridge Subclivisiou
No, Lr (the ti/o I'ots being contiguous) submitted to the County a
plan for preliminary pJ.at approval of a joint condominiurn devel-
opment of the two tots with an overall density of 108 unitsr
which pLan of joint development r4tas to be known as "Homestake IV".
The plan received prel.iminary plat approval on Februaxy 26, L974.
on D(liember 16, L975, Lot A-9, Lion's Ridge Subdivision No. L
was included in a parcel of land which lltas annexed to the town of
-2-
I
VaLl, and, thereafter, became subject to the zoning ordinance of
the town of Vail and not the county regulations. Iot G-4, Lionrs
Ridge Subdivision, the Plaintiffrs Lot, ltas not incl-uded in the
annexation and remaincd subject to county jurisdiction,
(B) On or about Septenber L6, Lg74, the Eagle County
CormisEioners adopted the Eagle County Zoning Resolution ln effect
at the time of the trial of this case, as amended, which contained
Sqction 4.02.06 whic.h provides in pertinent part as follows:
"Any preliminay plan, final plat or PUD aPproved under
the provisions of subdivlsion regulations shall. be
governed by the provisj-ons of said regulations and the
terms and conditions, if any, previously imposerd by
the Board of county Commissioners including the usie
and area of each lot. ...Said terrns and conditions
of such prior approval shall- include apprc.val of spe-
cific density ratios of dwelling units per lot and
specific uses authorized for specified lots.rl
The resol-ution then goes on to make some provisos which are not
. appropriate in this case,
(9) On March L6' Lg76, Plaintiff met with Michael Blair
who was then the Director of Flanning for Eergle County, and w!.th
one Stephen Isom, Blair's planning assistant, and, in general-
terms, discussed with them a rertised plan for condominium devel-
.opment of Lot e-i at a proposed density of 20 tc, 30 units. The
plan for joint development of Lots G-4 and A-9 fiaving been pre-
viously terminated by t.he annexation of Lot A-9 to the town of
Vail-. Plaintiff was at that time advised that to obtain a build-
.:,... ing permit for such development, the Plaintiff shciuld submit infor-
rnation required under the Buil-ding Resolution to the county build-
ing official . Plaintiff was advised further that, although devel-
opment of Lot G-4 rvould generally be exempt from the provisions of
the Zoning Resolution, bY virtue of the exemption accorded pre-
existing plats under the previously quoted er.emption clauser
-3-
development of l,ot c-4 would be requircd to cornply lrith tl.e park-
ing and set back requirements of the Zoning Resolution such general
exemption notwithstanding.
(10) In the spring and suturrer of L975, Plaintif,f, con-
sulted an architect, Robert Troutt, and upon Plaintiff's order,
Robert Troutt produced a site plan for condominiurn developmen't. of
I,ot G-4 at a d.ensity of 30 condominium units.
(1I) In December of '76 or January af '77, Plainfiff
met with Douglaso who was at the time of such meeting and who
has been for a number.of years prior thereto the Eagle County
Building Official charged with not only adminietration of the:
Eagle County ruiJ-ding nes6lution but aLso under Sectiorr 9,03.02
of the Eagle County Zoning Resolution. charged lritt administration
of the Eagl-e County Zoning Resolution. At such meeting.the PLain-
tLff and the said Douglas reviewed Plaintiff's site plan for de-
velopment'of 30 condominiurn units on lot G-4. An abtuod,ance of
eviilence established that the maximum aLlowable density of de-.
velopment for Lot G-4 under the Eagle County Zonirrg Resolution
was only 5 units. Plaintiff's sit,e plan disclosed on its face a
proposed density of 30 condominium units, and thus a density
greatly in excess of that alLowabLe under the Zoning Resoluti.on.
As a result of such review and neeting, Douglas advised PlairrLiff
cf the availability to Plaintiff of an excavation and grading
permit, as distinguished from conventional buil-ding permit, and
advised Plaintiff of the steps he must fol-Iow and the documents
he must submit to receive issuance of the permit. At no time
during the meeting betwecn Plaintiff and Douglas did Douglas
refer PLaintiff to the inhibitions of the Eagle County Zoning
Resolution except inhibitions which arose out of slope re:strictions
-4-
of the Eagle County Zoning Resolution which restrictions Douglas
toLd t)l.ainLiff hc, Dourql;r:;, woulcl alrPly Lo Plairitif frs |lejq'.ct at
least to the extent of requiring relocation of the proposed build-
ing to a place on the site where it would nc,t encroach upon any
slope in excess of 30?. With the exception of the slbpe restric-
tions and the parking and set back requirements, it was apparent
from the meeting with D,ouglas that he considered Plaintiff's pro-
posed plan to be exempt from the density requi.rements of the Eagle
County Zoning Resolution.
(l-2) In August of L977, Plaintiff contacted a contr.actor
with the aim of deveLoping rJot G-4 at a density of 30 units. Dis-
cussions with the contractor lrere nearing final agreement when the
contractor !'tas advised by DougJ.as that- Plaintiff 's proposed plan
to develop 30 units would not qualify for building permit because
it dlicl not- comply with the Eag1e County Zoning Resolution.
(13) On or about September 26t ]';977, Plaintiff was in-
formed by the contractor of the advise received frcm Dougl.as and
on the same day, Pl-aintiff asked for and was given a place on the
agenda of the meeting of the Eag1e County Commissioners which was
then in Oronr."r. Plaintiff appcared before the Commissjoners
and askcd t,hem for a dcclarabion rcgarding the eSemption clause
as it affected pre-existing plats. After scme discussion and con-
sultati-on with the County Attorney and members of the County PIan-
ning and Building Department, the Deferidant Board of County Com-
missioners sbated that a declarat,ion lvas not possibi.e without
study by the: County Attorney, that such a study woul-d be under-
taken. and that a declaration in writing would be forthcoming and

(3) The Defendants are estoPped to assert Eag1e County

does not mean that the Plaintiff can ignore. the Buj.lding Resolu-

(4) AdditionalJ-y, the Defendar:.ts are estopped to raise
the doctrine of exhaustion of administrative remedies in this cas;e,
because when the Pl-aintiff soright definition of their rules and

letter wb-ich was neither an approval or deniaL of his appllcatior,.

Flls No.:Dato!
0ctober 24, 1980
Attached hereto ls a copy of the Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law and
Judgment issued by the District Court in the case of Brown v. lhuglas and
the Eag'le County Board of County Cormissioners, Civil Actlon No. 3459,
Said Findlngs and Order were received by this offlce on October 20, 1980.
The Court basically concluded that the Board had approved the construction
of 40 condominiuns or Apartment units on Lot G-4 of Llonrs Ridge Subdivislon
No. 2; that the Zoning Resolutlon when enacted ln 1974 exempted the above
subdivision from complying with said Zoning Resolution as it pertained to
density; that the Board was estopped to assert noncomp'liance with the Zoning
Resolution due to the fact that the developer in reliance upon previous
plat approval of the subject property and reliance upon statements of the
planning staff had expended substantial sums of money to develop such
propertyi that the application of slope restrict'lons without more specjflc
engineering, geological and hydrological study being present, is arbitrary
and an unnecessary exercise of the police po,wer without benefit to the
public health., safety or welfare and, therefore, unenforceablei and that
the developer cannot ignore the Building Resolutlons which were subsequent'ly
adopted and do re'late to public healty, safety and welfare.
The Court ordered that upon the developer's compliance with Chapter 70 of
the Uniform Building Code governing permits for grading and excavatJon' the
County sha11 issue to the developer a building permit pursuant to the
plans presented by him under his application made and submitted to the
Building Department.on November ll, 1977

Re: Brown v. Board of County Corrnissioners -
Civi'l Action No. 3459
Dear George:
0n November 7, 1980, the Board of County Comnjssioners
determined not to appea'l the District Court's decjsion
ln the above-referenced matter. Such determination
was based upon the fact that those zoning provisions
app'licable 1n L977 which the Court ruled jnva'lid have
been substantially changed and, thus, the Court's decision
does not affect the va'lidity of the County's present
zoning regulations. In additiono the County pursuant
to the Court's order has issued a grad'ing and excavation
pennit to Stewart Brown.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, p'lease
contact this office at 328-7311 or P..0. Box 850n Eagle,
Coloradon 81631.

We feel thai; inadequate soils information was provided,
and that a more detalled report should be subnitted. ftreplanned development shoul-d be ljmlted to slopes less than
