deck was contrary to everything the PEC and Town normally did.
She felt it would take away nost of the relief and leave only a
token relief, it seened wrong. Tom replied that the staff
discussed the issue of what happened at that elevation and alsothe fact that they could not find any reason to deny the
request.
Beth Levine, representing the architect, explained that theplane surface from the deck was not attractive and felt thatwith articulation the elevation would inprove.

Peter explained the request and showed elevations and plans forthe booth. He added that the Marketing Corunittee had

The staff reconmendation was for approval .
Jirn Viele abstained from comment on this issue. Diana felt the
need for flowers or shrubs of sone kind. Jim Morter, thearchitect, showed a model and said potted plants had been
proposed to help cut down the glare. There would be no west
facing glass. A construction fence would be placed around thearea. Diana suggested waiting until after the su:nner tourist
season to begin construction. Ron Phillips felt the irnpact onthe site would not be that great if the construction were
started innediateJ-y. Diana felt it would be confusing totourists and wondered if anything would be gained by startingthe project during the summer tourist season.
Grant stated that this had been dragging on for so long, it
would be good to get it constructed. Pam agreed with Diana inthat not a whole lot would be gained by completing the
expansion in rnid-August.
Grant moved and Pan seconded to approve the structure. The
vote was 4-O-1 with Jirn Viele abstaining.

SUBJECT: A request for a side setback variance in order toconstruct an addition to Unit No. 6, Cottonwood
Townhouses, 933 Red Sandstone Road.Applicant: Gail Mo1loy
I. pESCRIPTION OF VARTANCE REQUESTEp
The Cottonwood Townhouses are zoned Low Density MultipleFanily. In this zone, aII setbacks are 2O feet. Theapplicant is requesting a side setback variance of 4 feet inorder to construct an addition containing approxinatety 200square feet. There are 494 square feet of GRFA remaining onthe Cottonwood Townhornes, The applicant states:
rfWe are requesting a variance from the ninimurn sidesetback (20 feet) as required for the Low DensityMultiple FarniJ-y district, L8.L6.060, Setbacks. Due tothe existing location of the Cottonwood Townhouses andthe irregrular nature of the side property line, anaddition to the south side of Unit #6, without avariance, is only possible as a peculiar wedge shape.
An addition to the creek side is inhibited by a largeexisting cottonwood tree which linits an addition toabout 4 feet. The proposed addition to the living areasof Unit #6 would extend about 4 feet into the side
setback at the worst point. The adjacent building tothe south, Sandstone 70, would still be approximately 25feet away at its closest point (see site plan). fhisbuilding is about 8 feet lower than Unit #5 and isoriented such that their viens to the creek are notaffected by this addition. This addition would notadversely affect adjacent property owners, views or usesof their property. Nor does this addition adverselyaffect parking, traffic, public safety, utilities,Iight, air, nor the distribution of the population.tt

Because of the snall scale of this project, the conprehensivePlan is not applicable.

v.FINDINGS
Thg_ Pl?nning ?{rd Enyironnental Cornnission shall make thefolLowincr findinqs before qrantiirq a variance:
That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grantof special privilege inconsistent with the lirnitations onother properties classified in the same district.
That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental tothe public_health, safety or welfare, or naterially injuriousto properties or inprovements in the vicinity.
o
That the variance is warranted for one or more of thefollowing reasons:
The strict or literal interpretation or enforcement ofthe specified regulation would result in practicaldifficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistentwith the objectives of this title.
There are exceptions or extraordinary circunstances orconditions applicable to the sarne site of the variancethat do not apply generally to other properties in the
same zone.
The strict interpretation or enforcement of thespecified regulation erould deprive the applicant ofprivileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties inthe same district.
VT. STAFF RECOMMENDATTON
The staff of the Conrnunity Development Department recommendsapproval of the reguested side setback variance. We findthat the adjacent property onners will not be adverselyaffected. Because of the wedge shape of the requiredsetback, we feel that to grant this variance would not be agrant of special privilege.

Rick Srlnan explained that the Lionshead Bar and Grill hadalways had tables on the deck adjacent to their restaurant, butthat the area where the tables would be placed had to benodified in order to satisfy the liquor code requirernents.Rick reviewed the conditional use criteria and stated that thestaff recommended approval .
Diana stated that one concern that should be passed along to
DRB was that the pedestrian path frorn the bus stop should nothave the appearance of being locked off to pedestrians.
Peggy added another concern to give to DRB, and that was thatthe surface of the deck needs repair and it would be nice tosee an inproved material used.
Dave Tyrrell , representing the owner, stated that they haveexperimented with several surfaces, and that there was a severewear problem. Jirn Viele asked if the restaurant owned thedeck, and was told the restaurant owner also owned the deck,but that the easernent was a public easement.
Diana Donovan rnoved and Bryan Hobbs seconded to approve theconditional use perrnit to change the easement per the staff

Rick Pylman explained that the new quad lift would replace theexisting chair tift No. 8 and the terninal for the new liftwould be placed in the same location as the existing chair 8terminal . The lift shack, colors and lift graphics will besinilar to those currently in place at the Vista Bahn in VaiIVillage. Rick reviewed the criteria for a conditj.onal usepernit.
Joe Macy from Vail Associates stated that the Tramway Boarddictated the distance from trees that the lift roust be, withthe result that some trees would have to removed. He addedthat the J-ong range plan would be to replace the skier bridgeand widen it. Macy added that during construction of theterrninal , a crane and large trailers may have to come throughthe Lionshead Mall. Joe also added that one adjacent propeityowner, David Ransburg, had sorne questions on the 1ift,-and goe
would neet with Ransburg in a few days. ceorge Hudspeth,project manager on the new lift, was in the audience to answerguestions.
Ross Davis spoke in favor of the project, as did the owner ofthe Lionshead Bar and Grill.
Art Albplanalp, representing the Rarnsbergs, stated that theyIrere more interested than concerned. They did not oppose theproject, but wanted to be kept inforrned.
crant Riva had concerns regarding trees that needed to beremoved, and Macy explained that he did not yet know whichtrees would have to be rernoved. He did say that those treesto the west of the old lift would rernain.
Peggy regretted that the skiers, bridge was not being inproved.Joe repried that inproving the bridge was part of the rnountainnaster plan, but that it would not be done at this tirne.

est for a side setback variance in order totructaddition to un cotton!'rood Townhomes.Applicant: GaiI MaIIov
Betsy Rosolack gave the presentation, discussed the variance
criteria and staff recomrnendation of approval. Betsy mentioned
concerns raised today regarding the accuracy of the drawings
and notification to the owner of the adjacent unit at Sandstone
70.
Ross Davis, representative of Sandstone 70 mentioned that the
end unit owner may not be available for comnent. Michael
Sanner, architect on the project, described the nethod of
deternining the accuracy of the location of the sandstone 70building on the drawing. Ross was concerned about the accuracyof the drawing. Michael stated that he did not feel that the
applicant should be penalized because of Sandstone 7O's
encroachment onto their side setback.
Ross discussed problens Sandstone 70 had had in discussing
rnutual concerns with the Cottonwood Townhomes regarding snow
renoval, landscaping, etc. Ross asked that any approval of an
addition be conditional upon requiring resolving these
concerns.
Viele asked sanner if this would be acceptable to Ms. Malloy.
Michael answered that he thought an improved landscape plan was
already in the works. Diana Donovan, who owns one of the
Sandstone 70 units, rernoved herself from behind the tab1e, and
discussed the fact that the cottonwood Townhomes Associationdid not seem to want to comrnunicate with the Sandstone 70
onners. She added that the Cottonwood Townhornes had an access
easement across Sandstone 70 property.
Sid felt that it was not unusual with setback variances to askfor landscaping between two properties. He asked Michael ifthe entire project could be constructed without going onto
Sandstone 70 property and Michael answered that he felt this
could be done, because sten walls were being used. Sid feltthat all efforts shoutd be made to contact the adjacent
Property owner.
Hobbs did not like the PEC being a police agent to requirecornnunication between the 2 associations. He fert sandstone zohad other courses of action they could follow. He agreed withSid concerning reguiring landscaping between the properties.
Peggy felt it would be difficult to build at the front cornerwithout rnoving the retaining wall. Michael stated that therocks would not be affected.
Grant felt that the duties of the Planning commission lrere toonarrow to perroit the PEc to arbitrate between the two propertyowners. He also felt that it was inportant to know the exact-Iocation of the property line. On the other hand, he felt thatdealing only with a 4 foot setback variance, he was not opposedto the request as presented.
Jiro Viele fett the most important issues included theneighbors, consideration and an accurate survey was need.ed.He felt the PEc could l-ook at snow removal that is inpacted bygranting the variance.
Michael asked to table the.request until June 13. peggy movedto table the reguest and sid seconded the motion. The vote was5-0-1 with Diana abstaining.
5. A reqUest for a rninor anendment to Srcacia] rtcval orrrnanf
Rick Pyrnan presented the request which included increasing thesetback areas in some places, and decreasing the setbacks onothers as well as a slight change to the landscaping on thewest. Buff Arnold brought a nodel and drawings to describe thechanges. After discussion and guestions, Grant moved toapprove the amendment and Hobbs seconded. The vote was 6-0 infavor.

Applicant: Peter Gonrbrich
Kristan Pritz described the request for a side setbackvari.ance. The staff recommended approval with the conditionthat landscaping be added to the east side. The contractorwill try to save all of the trees. Sid moved away from theback of the table, as he was the architect for the project.Sid stated that the garage nay be reduced by one foot if itappeared that this would be necessary in order to save thetrees.

Gentlemen:
As requested by ]vlr. Jinr Craig, Contractor' we per-
formed an excavati-on inspection at the site of the refer-
errced project on May 4, L971. At that time, approximately
two-thirds of the foundatior] excavation had been accom-
plished on the south buildilg, These excavations included
the entire south wall ancl e-ast walls and approxinrately the
eastern two-thirds of the north wall.
AII- of the excavations had penetrated the fill materi-
als ancl had exposed naturarl soils consisting of silty,
clayey sands and gravels w:-th cobbles ancl boulders. The
natural soi--l-s exposed at tlte bottom of foundatj-on excava-
tions wiIl be satisfactory to support conventional spread
footing foundations proportioned for a maximum allowable
bearing pressure of 1500 PSL', as recolnnended .in our SoiL
and Foundation rnvestigation report, Project No. 1235, dated
Irlarch 10, L977. The contracLor rvas advised to remove all
loose materials f rotn the bottom of foundation excavations,prior to placement of foundation concrete.
A second inspection was conducted by the rvriter on
I{ay 9 , 1917. At that time the foundation excavations for
the south building had been completed. The excavations
had p'enetrated the o1d fill nraterials and had encountered the
natura] granular strata. I\t the norLhlvest corner of the south
bullding, the groundwater table was encountered by the
foundation exca.vation. Ap1:roxinrately eight (B) to twelve
(12) inches of rvater r^/as present in the excavation at the
tiine of our inspection- A cotrs j-clerable amount of loose
marLerial was prescnL at Lhe bottom of the e.\icavation in
this area, below the cl rounillv,r Lc: r leveI.

tt: ). ephone conversation held
Contractor on M.rY 13, L977.
At that time, we discusscd the groundwater which has
accumulated in the west foundation wall excavation of the
north building at the project site. As we discussed in a
previous letter, de-watering of the excavat-ion is not con-
sidered to be practical , due Lo the possible development
9f 6 "c1uick" condition wl'rich rvould clestroy the bearing
L-apacity of the granular soils located below foundation
leveIs.
It is recommended that the grounclwater situation in
this area be handled as follows:
lland excavate the loose materials from beneath' founda-
tion areas below the groundwater leve1.
Place washed gravel in the bottom of the excavation
areas to a 1evel at least three (3) or four (4)
inches above the groundwater leveI.
compact the surface of the washed granular fill
with a vibratory compactor.
The gravel fill should cover the entire bottom of the
foundation excavation.
The spread footing wall foundation in this area should
be increased to a width of at least thirty (30) inches
and the foundation pad should be at least twelve (12)
inches thick.

Subject: Abbott,/Cunningham
Cottonwood Place
Dear Jim:
Consistent with my previous policy the purpose of this lettex is to up-
date you concerni.ng the Abbott/Cunningham project known as Cottonwood Place.
A meetiag was held with the County Conmissioners this past Tuesday in order
to appeal the decision of the Eagle County Planning Board concerning our
project. All interested parties were notified, and were at the meeting.
Please see Cunningham memo dated March 2L, L974.
County ALtorney, Hugh Warder, did not directly discuss Senate Bill 35, but
rather addressed himself to the fact that he believed that Abbott and Cunningham
had followed all prescribed regulations, and that he did feel Lhat we had been
excessively imposed upon. He suggested that the Board had several alternatives:
1. To uphold the Planning Board action.
2, To deny the Planning Board Action.
3. That Abbott and Cunningham be asked by the Conrnissioners
to apply for an exemption of the subdivision regulations of
Eagle County.
He indicated that the exemption route would offer a faix and equitable solution
to the matter.
The board then went into closed session, and we were notified that the decision
was to ask us to apply for an exemption; which would require the shortest timet
i.e. less than thirty (30) days.

Cientlqen:
I arn enclosiry a oopry of my letter to tlre Ebgle County Planning @crdssion
with regard to a pnoject proposed by one of your rrrcrdbers, fnrtlql Atbott.
Orr letter to the County sets forth scrne of our ooncerns about tJris project,
proposed for the Sardstone area.
l4r. Abbott "ansrarered" our letter, and the letters of ottrer residents of the
area' plus that of tlre Sardstone 70 Cordqdnir-m Association. Terry Irtilger
received a cogf of this anster. We feel ttnt tlp developer did not ansr^,erall the questions v*rich exist concernixg the project; tlrere are stiff serious
questions unanslered.
After or:r ag>eal to lhe Eagle CcunQr ehnniry Connission, thqg recccmended,actilg wittr the advise of I'tr. Itrrgh Vyarder, that ttris project be subject to
reviery by t}e Eagle County ehnniry @rmission, as are all pu:ojects in Eagle
County. Ihe derrelopers tmk e><ceptior to this nrling, ard appealed it to ttre
Cotrnty @rmissioners. The derzelopers and ttrose of us oplnsed to the project
net with the Eagle County @nnissiqrers on Tuesday, Marctl 26, L974. Ttre
developer roas prepared at this rneetilg to present his proposal to the Ccttmissionersi
lnvleven, ttre oppositior pointed out that this neeting was not called to revierp
the project. It€ Ccnrni-ssioners had been asked by the develoS:ersr atr4leal of thenrling nerely to consider that ruling by ttre Eagle Countlz Planning Ccnmission.
The outccne of tlre Ccnmissioners' decision was that the project would be subjectto revigir.
lilr. Abbott will, I believe, soon be applying to ttre Tonrr of Vail for anne><ationof this piece of properEy. If it is anne:<ed, and zoned, r/le are nrcst adanant aboutits not being zoned so that the prroject as protrDsed could be built upon it. trlefeel that this densitf is nnrch too highn and will have a very advense effect on
the surrourding area. In fact, ue have doubts as to r,rrtretlrer or not this properQt
orght to be developed at all.
l€ feel ttnt I,Ir. Abbott, especially since he sits as a concerned citizen on theVail Plannirg Ccnrnission, stpuld be nrcst willing to cooperate r,v:ittr ttre Eagle Oor:nt1z
Planning @rmission ard the To^,n to rmke this project an asset to the neighborhood,if in fact it has to o<ist. l4r. Abbott stated al the neetilg with ttre Ccnmty
@missioners ttrat he lvas a good neigtrbor. If he proceeds with tr-is prroject as
rmlv proposed, we will have to take ocception to that statsnerrt.

Gentlemen:
It was brought to my attention yesterday that Dudley Abbott anil Jim Cu;uringha.n
of Vail vere proceeding with their '24-unitr project located directly north
of the Sandstone 70 complex and adj acent to Red sanclstone Creek. AD onsj,te
inspection this nrorning revealecl that with their scr:apping of the surface
area the d--bris had been pushed toward Red Sandstone Creek and had litera1ly
rolled to the water's 'edge. This is in direct violatj.on of the County's 30-
foot setSack. If the contractor is violating County regulations at the onset
of the project, what will occur when actual excavatj.on is undex\',ay? :'
The Vail Tor,n office confi:med, that Dudley Abbott had presented
to the Town of Vail regarding having this lancl annexedi 'buL that
hail held off. Inasmuch as the Town of VaiI would Probably have
Red Sandstone Ro'ad will becoroe even more critical-
a proposal
I*1r. AbbotC
limited the
density of the area to uredir.ur density nulti-fa:nily rather than the high density
multi-faraily, and the fact that the County is gaining on zoling regulations;
is thj.s a RUsH job under the zoning wire? /?-rrb &t// .4?^
Vetricular circuLation is a significant factor. During periods of rapid heawy
snows Recl Sandstone Road is a real hazard. Cars cannot climb the hill adjacent
to the Alncnd Apartnents and what vrith cars parked along the Red Sandstone Road
it is inpossible for adequate snow renoval to take place. When the rPotato
Patch' becoires a realj.ty with a proj ected peak population of 500 persons,
the Lions Ridge area becomes more d,ense, t:affic on the relatively nalrow
ltiLl this Ablott{unningharn Project supply enough parking within the Ploper.ty
bbundarj.e s (NgT within 3O feet of the stream) so as to eliminate spillage onto
the Red Sandstone Road, the Red Sandstone Circle Road and tlte Red Sandstone -
conplex? : ' :' - .' ',, .:'
On three-fourths of, an acre,and including 24 units in adilition to Parking
sPacesfor5oto75vehic}es,whatroomisleftfolanenities?
The persons living in the Red Sandstone area are concerned. What can be done?
and what can we specifically do?
Thank you. '

Dudlev Abbott would like to annex a tract of approxi-
mately 50r253 square feet to the Town of Vail. The property
i6 located di recfly North and East of Sandstone 70 and
encompasses to the center of Sandstone Creek. Due to
the location, the Almond property becomes an enclave
which would make its annexation possible in the future.
The proposed annexati on wou I d a lso a I low fhe Town to
annex portions of Lions Ridge.
Dudley has proposed HDMF Zoning which seems reasonable if
adjoining buildings are considered. HDMF Zoning would
allow approximately lB units of 1,000 square feet eachwith one underground pa rk ing space per unit. We p robab ly
cannot annex w ith any other Zon ing. The Proposed structure
is two stories and cou ld be attractive.
I fee I th is cou ld be an important p iece for

RE:COTTONvlOOD PLACE
As rnenrbers of the Town staf f it somet imes becomes our responsibility
to raise questions on proposed projects wh ich shou ld be answered
Dy 1'he developer at the time of review. This was done on the subject
pro ject in our merrro of Apri | 10. Fo I low ing is an amp I if ication of
tfr€ comments nrade in that memo:
S i nce tire t ime of our memo, there was a rneet i ng on Monday, Apr i
l5 betrveen Terry Minger, J im Cunningham, Dudley Abbott and Kent
Rose at lvhich tine Mr. Abbott could not oroduce a fitle and
boundary s u rvey rvhich we re in agreement w ith each other.
l,le have never seen the property corners staked in the f ield on.l-he s ite and we don rt know f hat the creek is shown in the cor-
rect location on the plat. The legal description contained in
the survey (copy a'f tached) furnished us indicates that theproperty line on the west side of the site corresponds to the
center of S:ihdstone C reek. lf the survey and legal descrip-
tion are co r rect, the 30r setb ack was measured f rom the center
of Sandstone Creek and the creek is no1' properly shown on theplat. The legal descriotion contained on the survey does not
agree with the legal description contained in Section l.l of
the Condornin i um Dec larat icn for Sandstone 70 at Va i | .
The only access to the site is through Sandstone 70 which is aprivate road and parking, 'r,rhich road arr d parking are a part of
the genera I common elemen'is owned by the Condom in ium Assoc iat ionin accor-dance v/ith Seci ion 5,2 of ihe Condominium Declaration.
Under Seciion 5.7.3 the declarani has the right to extend the
easemenl- 'fo the subject property; however, the Condomin ium
Assoc iat ion has the right to assess fees for maintenance for
such exfens ion cf this easeme n t to the owners of the p ropose d
new units. Since roads and parking are a part of the common
elernenis of the existing Associafion, we feel they should give
written Dermission for chanaina these common elements.

Page 2
Arch itectura I Graph ic Standards recommends an abso lute 251
minimum length for parallel parking spaces with a minimum'
aisfe width ol 2Ot; however, this does not allow for any snow
storage among the parking spaces. The spaces shown are 221
long with an aisle rvidth rvhich varies f rom l8r to 22 1 . Comment
reriinr on the fwo angle parking spaces on the south end of the
site.
The rights to the Sandstone Ditch (as excepted from property
ownership in the Condominium Declaration Section l.l) are owned
by the Princeville Corporation and the Vail \1later and Sanitation
District. The Vail Water and Sanitation District is now in the
process of converting all of their water rights from agricul-
fural use to domestic use and transferring recorded diversion
points to actual diversion points. i]1le have been advised by our
water rights experts, Blatchley & Associates, that should court
proceedings be delayed, it would be to the Districtrs benefit
io restore all irrigation ditches and head gates that are Pre-
sently owned by the District and run water through the ditches
for measurement by the water commiss ioner on a month ly bas is.
on April l2 Mr. Abbott and Kent Rose inspected the site and coul
not determine where on the property the ditch is. We donrt
feel that abandonment of the ditch would be detrimental to the
District and would not delay the project on this point.
6. Pertaining to the question cf fire profection of the proposed
project, see attached letter from the Vai I Fire Deparfment.
7. We feel that the comments pertaining to Town of vail zoning are
sufficiently clear and require no further explanation.
We have used the same review procesS for this project as is used
for every project reviewed by the Town of Vail staff for the Town
or Eagle'Couniy''and do not feel that we have been any more critical
of Cottonwood P lace than for any other s imi lar project.

RE:COTTONI1OOD P LAC E
As membei-s of the Torvn staf f it somet i mes becomes our respons ib i I ityto ra ise questions on proposed projects wh ich shou I d be ansvreredby the developer at the time of revievr. This was done on the subjectproject in our memo of April 10. Follovring is an amplification ofthe cornments made in that memo:
since the tiine of our memo, there vras a meeting on llonday, Aprill5 betr'reen Terry Minger, J im cunn ingharn, Dud ley Abbott and KentRose at rvhich f ime 1"1 r. Abbott could not produce a title andboun dary s urvey vrh ich we re in agreemen t riiih each other.
we have never seen the property corners staked in the field onthe site and we cionrt know that the creek is shown in the cor-rect location orr the plat. The legal description contained lnthe s urvey ( copy attached ) furn ished us i nd i cates thaf theproperty line on the west side of the site corresponds to thecenter of siihdsione creek. if the survey and legal ciescrip-t!on are correct, the 50f setback was measured from the centerof sandstone creek and the creek is not properly shorvn on thep la'i . Jh" lega I descr i pt i on conta ined on tire s i.uey does notagree with the legal description contained in section l.l ofthe Condomi n i um Dec larat ion for Sandstone 70 at Va i | .
The only access to the sife is through sandstone 70 which is eprivate road and parking, which roaci and parking are a part ofthe general comrion elements ovned by the condominium Associationin accordance r;ith Section 5.2 cf the condominium Dec larat ion.under section 5.7.J -ihe decloran'f has the righl-to exfend theeasement to the subject prooerty; however, the Condonrin iumAsscciaf ion has ihe r ight to assess fees for ma intenance fcrsuch extension of -ihis easement to the ov,,ners of the proposednew uni'is. since roads and parking are a part of the commone lemen'l's of the existing Associaiion, we feel they should givewritten permission for changing these conlmon elernenrs.

4.Architectural Graphic Standards recommends an absolute 231
minirnurn length for parallel parking spaces with a minimum
aisle r.ridth of 20t; however, this does not allovt for any snow
storage among the parking spaces. The spaces shown are 221
f ong with an aisle vridth vrhich varies f rom lBr to 22r. Comment
remains on the two angle parking spaces on the south end of the
si1'e.
The rights to the Sandstone Ditch (as excepted frorn property
ownership in the Condominium Declaration Section l.l) are ovrned
by the Princeville Corporation and the Vail Vlater and Sanitation
District. The Vail l,late.r and Sanitation Districf is novr in the
process of converting all of their wate r rights f rom agricul-
tura I use 1'o domest i c use and transferr ing recorded diversion
points to actual diversion points, Vle have been advised by our
water righl-s experis, Blatchley & Associates, that should court
proceedings be delayed, it vrould be to the Districtrs benefit
to restore all irrigation ditches and head. gates that are pre-
sently ovrned by the District and run water through the ditches
for measurement by the Water Commissioner on a monl-hly basis.
On Ap ri I l2 lrlr. Abbott and Kent Rose i nspected the s i te and cou I
not determine vrhere on the property the ditch is. Vle donrt
f ee I that abandonmen-f of the d itch vrou ld be detrimenta I to the
District and would not delay the project on this point.
Perfaining to the question of fire protection of the proposed
project, see attached letter from the Vail Fire Departmenf.
I'le feel that the comments perfaining to Town of Vail zoning are
suf f iciently clear and require no further explanation.
t{e have used the same revie91 process for this project as is used
for every project revieyed by the Town of VaiI staff for the Town
or Eagle'Couniy''und do not feel that we have been any more critical
of Coitonwood Place than for any other simi lar Proiect.

Gentlqen:
You have copies of my letters to the @unty officials of t"tarch 20, L974
ard to you of March 28, 1974 rggaalcling tJ:e Abbott{urur_i.nglran project.
With tl:is letter I am erq)ressing to lrou my oontinued qcncern about ttr-is
prog>sed project.
Before we can consider annecing th-is par:cel of glpund irrto the Torpn ofVail, we feel that the guestions wtrich have arisen regarding this project
mrst be answered satisfactorily. Tlrese guestions concern the follorrilg:
1. The effect of the project on the strean. Tlrls effest rnrst not be
detrfuental to Red Sardstone freek irr any \.ray.
2. The densiQr of the area is great at present, ard we cannot further
congest the area wittr the project as proposed p:resently.
3. @n space nu.rst be preserved on this site; this nn:st be considered
when dealing with ttre size of a b-rilding ttrat should be put on the land.
4. Adequate parkhg on tlre site must be provided. There sinply cannot be
any inadequac.y in the rtratter of parkilg. Ttre plonring of snow on the. property rnrst be qcnsidered as we aU_ kncrhr that parking q)aces are lost
during ttre r,uinter nrcnths, and the residents r,rculd not be legally ableto park on adjacent prirzate property. Itre pr:blic roads in the area are
already hearily burrdened by the runnber of cars in the area that nnrst be
parked.
5. the single irqress to the property ouJd pose a problqn.
6. lltre trees on the properQr are a1ive, for the nost part. Scme of the
larrger aspen trees may be dead; tprrvever, tbose that are alive should be
saved.
7. The ease wittr wluich a fire trucl< coul.d get to tJ:e brilding should be considered.
Perhaps the ansr,rcr to ttrese questions crcuLd be forrrd jn an Ewirorsnental InpactSlrdy' ard perhaps this is the d.irecLion r,ire should nrcve in before fi:rther discussingtle anno<ation of this trurcel of gr-ourd.

Gentlsruen:
I am enclosing a copy of ny letter to Ure Eagle Courrty Planning Ccnrnission
with regfard to a project prol':osed by one: of yor:r merdbers, Dudley Abbott.
Our letter to the County sets forth scme of our ooncerns abcut this project,
po:oposed for the Sandstorre area.
l"lr. Al-ibott "ansraieredl or:r ]-etter, and ttre letters of ot]rer residents of the
area, p}rs that of tlre Sardstone 70 Conicxniniun Association. Terry I'tinger
received a copy of thi-s ans^rer. We feel ttnt the developer did not ans\,verall ttre questions vitrich exist concernfug the p:rojecti ttrere are Edff serious
questions unansr"rered.
After our appeal to The Eagle County Plaruring Ccrrntission, they recormerrded,
acting witJl the advise of t!r. Hugh Warder, that this project be subjecb to
revr-st by tlre Eagle Corrrty Plarning Ccrmr-issi-on, as are aI1 projects in Eagle
County. Ttre developers took ocception to this mling, and appealed it to t}re
Counlry Ccrmcissiorirrrs. Atre deveiopers ard those of us oplx,rsed io iJre proj ect
net with the Eagle County Ccrnnissioners on Tuesday, March 26t L974. Ihe
derreloper was prepared at tJ:is rreetilg to present his proposal to the Ccnmissionersi
llclvever' the opposition grinted out that this meeting wrs not called to revienr
the project. The Cotwrissioners had beerr asked by ttte developers' appeal of the
ruIiJg nerely to concider ttrat ruling blr ttre Eagle Oouncy Planniag @nnission.
Ttrc outcrcrne of ttre Ccnrnissioners' decisi.on was that the project r,ould be subjectto reviqr.
I{r. Abbott will, I believe, soon be appiying to tlre Torpn of Vail for annocationof this pJece of property. If it is arure><ed, and zoned, he are Trpst adanant aboutits not being zoned so thrat the project as p::oposed could be built upon it. h&3feel that this density is much too high, and will have a very adverse effect on
the surrounding area. In fact, lve have dor:lcts as to whether or not this prr:perty
orght to be developed at all.
l{e feel that Mr. Abbott, especially sjnce he sits as a concerned citizen on theVail Pla-nnilg Cctmission, sirorld be npst wifling to cooperate with Lhe Eagle CounQz
Plarudng Ccnmission ad the To\^rn to nrake this project an asset to the neighborhood,if in fact it has to exist. !4r. Abbott stated at the reeting with the Counq/
Ccrrnissioners that he was a good neighbor. If he proceeds with hiq pr.oject a€
ncnv proposed, we will ha.,re to take er<ception to that statsnent. t . )

1.Available Fire Protection
The proposed Cottonwood Place project is not within the
boundaries of the Vail r'ire Protection District. The property
lies i;r an unproteeted area, rvhich dicl--ates only a limited
fire response shoufd an emeligency sittration arj-se. At pre-

Access to. the property is linited to one drive that could
beccne too narror'r to be of use if parking or snowplcvring is

Re: COII0N-dCOD PIACE
During its past two meetirrgs r Lhe Vail Planning Corrnission has received
considerable ccTment and ilput frcrn varj.ous sources concerning the above
project and its exenption request which will ccxne before you April L7, 19'14.
After revierrvilg plans, etc., the Vail Planrdng Ccnrnission r,rrculd like to
malce the following conments.
First, if the property were up for anne)<ation ilto the Tbwn of Vail it would
be onsidered as a Medirnn Density Multi-Fanily parcel. Vie,w€d jr terms ofVailrs zoning Ordinance, Cottonvood Place. as prolDsed, fails to meet a ntunber
of regtrirenents. Ttrese points are outlined j-n the attached letter frcrn theVail Zoning Arrtninistrator to the Pfann-ing Ccnrnission.
Second, it atrpears that an Envirorrrental Assessnent should be maile of theproperty. 'rtr.is r,ould include considerations of flood plairr Ievels. geological
conditions, shape of the land, impact on trees ard urrderErowth. Frccn our
review of t]rc plans, it seerns that such an Assessaent nr-ight cause firther
poi:rts of ccnnent on the project.
Final1y, it is the opinion of tlre Vail Planning Ccnraission that Cottorurood
Place should be thorougtr-ly reviewed frcrn everlz aspect. It does border on
the Tbvnr of Vail and muld be a candidate for futrrre annexation; hence, the
Ccrnnissionrs conceln for this reviery.

Eagle, Colorado
Dear llr. Blalr:
As a result of the recent annual neeting of the Brook-
Tree Condoniniun Association and the discloeure in that neeting of
the proposed construction of Cottonwood Place, a developnent Lo-
cated in the Lion's Ridge Subdj-vislon betvteen BrookTree and the
Alnond Apartuents, I wish to express ny extrene concern over theprospects of, this development.
I believe the concerns enunerated by the President ofthe BrookTree AEsociation, Peter llacdonald, in his letter of, Aprillst to your attention are extrenely well taken, and I can assureyou that if plane continue for the construction of this proJect, I
f,or one, will aesune a nore positive and direct role in opposinS it.
Ac the time we buiLt BrookTree we had nany acsurancesthat the irnmediate surroundirgs of BrookTree would renain inviolate.
Now these assurances appear to have been in vain. As Presldent ofa very active recreational- l-and developnent firn in the Colorado
mountains, I believe it's high tine that the governmentaL ageneies --federal , atate, and local -- in conjunction with responsi.ble landdevelopers, shed thelr myopic interests and work together in a nore
cogent nanner to pr€vent occurrences such as the subject of thlsletter.
Thank you for your forbearance and consideration of thisvery j.nportant and far-reachlng topic.

Ilagle County Planning ConmissionVail Planning CoinrlissionMr. Jim Cunninghan
Vail Water and SaniLation District
RF: Proposed piLe No. Se-57-'74 Exemption, Cottonrvood Place
1. Available Fire Protec+-ion
The proposed Cottonwood 1?lace p::ojecL is noL within the
boundaries of the vail Fire Protection District. The property
Iies in an unprolected area, whj-ch dictates only a limited
firc response shorrld an emergency situation arise. At pre-
sent, limited response consists of a Colorado State Forest
Service tanker, carrying 800 gallons of vrater with a pump
capacity of 150 gallons per minute.
2. Accessibility
Access to the property is limited to one drive that could
become too narrow to be of use if parl"ing or sno\,,/'p low ing is
Dot tightly controlled. The ncrth and west exposures of the
buildi-ng are not accessible at all i-n terms of firefighting
operations. Access from the parking area may be limited or
prevented by parked vehicles. I'lo secondary or alternai:e access
is provided.
3. Existing Firefighting Capabilities
Three fire hydrants novr'exist in the Sandstone area. Based
on measurements ialcen by the Vaii I''ire Department, the cfosest
hydrant to the proposed buil,dings t^'ould require a hose 1ay of
320 feet. Distance from the furthest hydrant l.,'ould involrre
576 feet of hose. These distances are based on the assumptj-on
that roads would be clear of all obstacles and under ideal
conditions. (See accomparrvinlJ map.) the Fire Department re-
cor,r.tends an additional, neiv tiyflvsrlt to be placed immediatcly
adjaccn'c to the dccc-qs clrive of the prolecti exacL location
to be determined aL a later date by the Fire Chief.

Three existing complexes are very cl:se to the proposed project
and might be endangered in the event of a maj.or fire, especially
if wind is a factor. The closest is Sandstone 70, which will
have one of iLs buildings onl-y 22 feet from the roof overhang
of the proposed project. I'he other two cornplexes within a
close distance are Brooktree ConC.ominiums and the Almond Apart-
ments.
5. Required Fire FIow
Based on information received from the architect, relating to
total square footage of the buildings and type of construction,
a fire flow o.f approx.imabel.y 4400 gallons per minute would be
required if the buildings were totally involved.
These points have been discussed with the project developers.
anC they have indicated a willingness to do whatever might be
reguired to provide as high a standard of fire proteclion as
possible.

Proposed File i.lo. Se-57-74 Exemption, Cottonwood Place
Avai-lable Fire Protection
Thc proposcd Cottonwood Place project is not within the
boundaries of the Vail Fire Protection District. The property
lj.es in an unpl:otected area, which dictates only a limited
fire response should an en'lergency situation arise. At pre-
scr)L, linited response consists of a Coforado State Forest
Service tani<cr, carrying E00 gailons of water with a pump
capacity of 150 galJ-ons per minute.
2. Accessibj-lity
Access to the property is limited to one drive that could
becorne too narrow to be of use if parking or snowplowing rs
not t,i-ghtly controlfed. The north and west exposures of the
building are not accessibre at al,l in terms of firefightiirg
o1:eratj-ons. Access fronr the parking area may be limited o::
preventeci b1' parked vehicles. iilo secondary or alternate access
is p.rovicied.

/.
As members of the Town staff it sometimes becomes our responsibility
to raise questions on proposed projects which should be ans\'/ered
by the developer at the time of revievr. This was done on the subject
project in our memo of April 10. Following is an amplification of
the comments made in that memo:
Since the time of our memo, there l,/as a meeting on Monday, Apri I
l5 between Terry Mingcr, J im Cunn ingharn, Dud ley Abbott and Kent
Rose at which time Mr. Abbott could not produce a title and
boundary survey wliich were in agreemenl- with each other.
We have never seen the proPerty corners staked in the f ield on
the site and we donrt know that the creek is shown in the cor-
rect location on the plaf. The legal description confained in
the s u rvey ( copy attached ) f u rn ished us i nd i cates that fheproperty line on the wesl- side of the site corresponds to the
center of Saindstone Creek. if the survey and legal descrip-
tion are correct, the 50t setback was measured from the center
of Sandstone C reek and ihe creek is not ProPerly shown on theplat. The legal description contained on the survey does not
agree with the legal description contained in Section l.l of
the Condomin ium Dec laration for Sandstone 70 at Vail.
The only access to the site is through Sandstone 70 which is a
pr i vate road and parking, which road and pa rk ing are a part of
the genera I common e lements owned by the Condorn i n i um Assoc i at ion
in accor da n ce with Sect ion 5.2 of the Condominium Declaration.
Under Section 5.7.3 the declarant has the right to extend the
easement to the s ubject p rope rl y; howe ve r, the Condorninium
As soc i at ion has the righf to assess fee s for ma intenance for
s uch extens ion of this easement to the ow ne rs of the p ropose d
new units, Since roads and parking are a part of the common
e lements of the existing Assoc iat ion, we feel they shou ld give
written permission for changing these common elemenfs.

Arch itectura I Graoh ic Standards recommends an absol ute 231
mlnimum length for parallel park ing spaces with a minimum
aisle width of 20ti however, this does not allow for any snow
storage among the parking spaces. The spaces shown are 22 1
long with an aisle width which varies from lBr to 22 1. Comment
remains on the two angle parking spaces on the south end of the
site.
The rights to the Sandstone Ditch (as excepted from property
ownershiD in the Condominium Declaration Section l.l) are owned

by the Princeville Corporation and the Vail Water and Sanitation
District. The Vail Water and Sanitafion District is now in the
process of convertilg all of their water rights from agricul-
tural use to domestic use and transferring recorded diversion
points to actua I divers ion points. we have been advised by our
water r i ghts expelis, B latch ley & Assoc iates, that shou ld court
proceedings be delayed, it would be to the Districtrs benefit
to restore all irrigation ditches and head gates that are Pre-
sently owned by the District and run water through the ditches
for measurement by the vJater commiss ioner on a month ly bas is.
0n Apri I l2 Mr. Abbott and Kent Rose inspected the site and coul
not determine where on the property'fhe ditch is. We donrt
feel that abandonment of the ditch would be detrimental to the
District and would not delay the project on this point.
6. Pertaining to the question of fire protection of the proPosed
project, see attached letter from the Vail Fire Department.
7. We feel that the comments pertaining to Town of Vail zoning are
sufficiently clear and require no further explanation.
l,l e have used the same review process for this project as is used
{'or every project reviewed by the Town of Vail s-faf f for the Town
or Eagle'County'-and do not fee I that we have been any more critical
of Cottonwood P lace than for any other s imi lar project.

Re: CCIIICNTrcCD PIACE
Durirtg its past tr,ur neetings, the Vail Planrring Ccfimission has received
considenable ccmnent and inErt frcrn various sources concernilg the above
pn:oject and its ercerption request which will cqne before you Aprit L7, 1974.
After revia,ving plans, etc., the Vail Plannirrg Ccnrnission r^aculd like to
neke the follcrvilg ccrmrcnts.
First, if the plrcperty lrere l4) for arurexation into the Ttorun of Vait it r.rould
be onsidered as a Itdediun Density lfirlti-Fanr-ily 5nrcel. Vis^€d in teuns ofVail's zoning Ordinance, Cottorj!{ood place, as proposed, fails to neet a nunberof requir<nents. These points are outlined in the attached letter frcrn theVail Zoning A&ninistrator to the Planning Ccrmission.
Second, it aptrEars ttr,at an B:vj-rorurental Assesstent should be nade of the
protrErty. Ihis r,ould irtclude onsiderations of flood plain levels, geological
conditions, shape of the 1and, impact on trees ard r.lrder,growth. Frcrn our
revieur of the p1ans, it sesns that such an Assessnent might cause fr:rther
points of ccnnent on tte pnoject.
Finally, it is the opinion of the Vail Planning Ccnraission that Cottorn^,ood
PJ.ace should be thororghly reviexnrcd frcrn eve4z aspect. It does border on
the Toam of Vail and could be a candidate for fubrre annocation; hence, the
Ccnrnissionrs concern for th-is revieur.

Gentlenen:
As property owners within the Town of Vail, more specifically Vail Village
9th Filing, we wish to express our concern regarding the proposed Cunningham-
Abbott apartment project located north of Sandstone 70 Condoniniums and rtest
of the Almond Apartments. We wouLd like to see this proPerty annexed to
the Town of Vail for the following reasons:
Geographically, socialIy, economically and funclionalLy this parcel of land
is more closely related to the Town of vail than the unincorporated lands
lrest of Red Sandstone Creek. It should be obvious that any faults or bonuses
from this project will relate more to the residents of the Town of VaiI
than to the unincorporated areas of the County. We furthermore feel, philo-
sophicalty, that proj ects of this density should be within the ilcorporated
town limits. The ability of the County to manage urban densities is question-
able (particularly this parcel because of its geographical position) " There-
fore, we feel Lt is very 5mportant for this to be incLuded with a full range
of fown designr construction and services.
As concerned neighbors we have looked at the developerrs site plans and
visited the site with a representative of the developer. Vf,e have sone con-
cern about the project as it xelates to the specific parcel, access to the
parcel anil maintenance of a streamside green be1t. We feel that the Town of
VaiI clesign criteria and construction performance standards might Lead to a
more acceptable project.
The developer has shown concern about the annexation of this project due to
the probable time frame involved. We hope that j-f this parcel could be an-
nexed that the Plannj.ng Commission and Trustees could move very promptly
to work with the developer.
Thank you for your tirne and consideration.
S incerely,

As an owner of a Brooktree Condomlnlum I want to vigorously
protest the proposed developnent of Cottonnood P1ace, loeated 1n
Llonsrldge subdlvlslon between Brooktree ancl the Alnond Apartnents.
The reason my fan11y chose Brookltee 2 years a€o l.as
because it was elose to Sand.stone Creek and Has surroundtecl wlth large
eottonwood and aspen trees and had a llttLe park area dlrectly
across Sandstone Creek fron our unlt. Thls set Ii apart from the
Asphalt Jung1e of Vatl Village.
I have been alarned at the way Llonsrldge has been allowed
to gror these passed. 2 years, seernlngly without regard to the 1n-
creased vehlcular trafflc, off street parklng, the sewer problen,
and other problems that "high density" does to the envlornment in
general.
ff thls development is aLloned to be built' they r11l have
to cone down withln 10 feet of the creek, take away the llttle park
and renove a1l- the Large trees on the south bank of Santlstone Creek,
as well as completely cut off the view fron Brooktree.
1 d.ontt believe any nenber of the Bagle County Plannlng
Comntsslon cou1d. ln good eonsclence vote for thls proposed develop-
ment lf they woulil vlsit the site. I hope that the County Commlsslon

Dear Mr. B1a1r:
As a part-tlne ValLite, rho has cone to l-ove Val1 as a
mountatn re treat fron the rigors of clty 1lv1ng' 1 slsh to reglster
rny disapproval of the proposed developnent of Ccttonwood Place.
The proposed slte sltuated between Almond Apartrnents and Brook-
tree Condonlnluns ls at the present an "open space" arcar whlch
provides a vlsual- and a psychological break from the over-develop-
ment of a once serene mountalnslde. Open spaee, whlch has becone
lncreasingly rare, 1s 4 connodtty that ls rapldly prlclng ltself
orrt of exlstanee.
The quallty ihat was stressed ln the orlglnal concept of
Vall has rapldly fallen by the ray slde to nake roon for the rnore
lucratlve concept of quantlty. It ls tine for Val1 Assoclates and.
the Eagle County Plannlng Conrnlsslon to ask the questlon "Isquantlty really more Lucratlve?" ft is my opinlon that lt w111 only
serve to allenate those for whl-ch Vatl wae br:llt.
People cone to Vail fron all over the world for a rnultltude
of reasons. They al-1 share a love for the uncornplicated llfe styl-e
Val1 has presented in the past. Thls 1lfe style ls raplilly ceaslng
to extst, overcrowd.lng and rampant bulldtng ln the valley ls
taklng lts toll- on the quallty of 11fe in Val1. Va1l ls now faced
wi.th problens that only over-developnent can brlng. The reallty of
trafflc congestlon, laek of parklng, smog, constructlon of hlgh-
rlse eondonlnluns and ellmlnatlon of open space has changed what
ras onee a serene valley tnto rhat resenbLes the clty Llfe peopl.e
are trylng to escape. Onee 1lfe becones conpllcated l.n Vall Lhese
people wtIl nove on to greener ,'nountalnsldes, and hopefully these
resorts rontt sacraflce quality for quantlty.
It ts for these reasons f oppose Cottonrood Place and it ls
my hope that all other proposed condonlnlrrn eonplexes be nad.e to
conform to strlet land uselaws allowlng for much needed open space.
Unless these realltles are g1.ven strlct conslCeratlon you w111 be
eentributing to the dernl-se of the 'unflnlshed vl1lage."

Dear Mr. Blair,
I have learued \rith great dlsuay the contenplated devel-opment
of Cottonwood Place in the Lionsridge Sub-division between
Brooktree and the ALnond Apartments.
As an owner at Brooktree, Irn strongly opposed to this project.
The area in question was origlnaLly designated as a park for the
surroundiog residents. In additlon, the beauty and secl-usion
Brooktree now offers wil-l be eliminated lf this area is torn up.
Belng from New Jersey, I only hope you wilL not al1ow the greater
Vail area to become overdeveloped as ls the case j-n the East. I
purchased a Unlt at Brooktree because it offers the serenity not
found ln many places. Vai1 ls unlque, but you will have lost a
great deal if future devel-opnent 1s not protected.
I trust you lrill not al"low this to happen.

The proposed Cottonwood Place project is not within the
boundaries of the Vail rire Protection District.. The property
lies ia an unprotected area, which dictates only a limited
fire response should an emer.g'ency situation arise. At pre-
sent, limlted response consists of a Colorado SLate Forest
Service tanker, carrying 800 gallons of waLer with a pump
capacity o1' 150 qallons per minute.
2. Accessibility
Access to the propert.y is li-mited to one drive that could
become too narr:ow to be of use if parki-ng or snowplowing is
not tightly controiled. The nortir and west exposures of thebuiloing are not accessible at all in terms of fj.refighti:',9operations, Access from the parking area may be lirnited or
preventr:ci l:y parked vehicles. l.i o secondary or alternate accessis provided.
3. Existing rirefighting Capabilities
Three fire h1'flsants now exist in the Sandstone area. Based
on measurenents taken by the Vail fire Department. the closest
hydra:rt to the proposed buildings would require a hose 1ay of
320 feet. Distance froin the furthest hydrant would involve
576 feet of hose. Tirese distances are based on the assumption
that roaCs r^zould be clear of all obstacles and under ideal
conditions. (See accompanying map.) The Fire Department re-
commends an additional, new hydrant to be placed immediately
adjacent- to the access drive of the project; exact location
to be determined at a later date by the Fire Chief.

I4. Exposures
Three existing complexes are very close to the proposed project
and might be endangered in the event of a major fire, especially
if wind is a factor. The closest is Sandstone 70, which will
have one of its buildings cnJ-y 22 feet from the roof overhang
of the proposed project. The other two complexes within a
close distance are Brooktree Condomj-niums and the Almond Apart'
ments.
5. Required Fire !'l-ow
Based on information receivecl from the architect, relating to
total square footage of tlle br.rildings and type of conslruction,
a fire florv of approximately 4400 gallons per minute would be
required if tl-ie buildings were totaliy involved.
lhese poi.nts have been discussed wittl the project developers,
and they have indicated a wiJ-lingness to do whatever might be
requirecl to provide as high a standard of fire protection as
possi-b1e.

Dear 1,1r. BLair:
At the annual neeting of the BrookTree Condomini.un Association held on
March 28, L974, a matter was brought up for discussion \,thic h created
amazement and shock throughout the ownershlp. I am specifically refer-
rir€ to the contemplated deve lopment of Cottonwood Placer located in the
LLonsridge subdivision, between BrookTree and the Almond Apartments.
Dur ing the neeting it was resol-ved that the Association is opposed to the
development of this project, and as President, and therefore speaking for
the owners, f vrant to go on record as opposing CottoNltood Place for the
fol lowing reasons:
1) What was to be a park area for the enjoyment of the lurrounding
residents will no l-onger be.
2) Parking and vehicular traffic in general, which is Presently an
acute prob lem, wil-l- be coqounded to a uuch greater exteDt .
3) The seclusion and serenity existLng at BrookTreer a pr ime reason
for purchase by a number of owners, will be eliminated when a nurber of
trees are torn dovrn and the apartments are constructed only a few yards
in front of two of our buildings.
4> Density, which already is too great in the Lionsridge area, in
the opinion of many, wiLL become greater.
5) I have graue concelTrs about the adequacy of sustained, reason-
abLe vrater and sewer service even today, and with the constluction of
Cottonwood Place, I shudder.
A1L BrookTree ovrner s and the owners of uaits nearby have spent a great
deal of nroney in the purchase of their condominLums. We purchased for
a number of reasons, but one of the most cogent was to geE ar,tay from the
congestion of Vaii- Village, Denver, Chicago, New York or wherever, and berraway from lt aLl.rr Up to this tine this has largely been accomplished
by having a 1oveLy creek flowing in front of us, being surrounde<l by a
stand of Cottonwood and Aspen trees, and hav ing an uninterrupted vLew of
the ski area.

Dear Mr. Blair:
The recent annual rneeting of rny condoninium association brought
to light a conternplated new development on LioDs Ridge,
Cottonwood Place. The ensuing discussion of this deveLopnent
and its location overshadowing residences already there
helped crystalize for ne sone thoughts I have had since I
first came to Vail in 1969.
I question the planning which allows developments to grow at the
rate which Vail has. It appe ars that fast dollars are being
made at the expense of overall area design integrity, hone-
owner safety, and the quality of 1ife. New projects are
started even though auto traffic routes, sewage disposal ,water supply, and land use are already overtaxed.
Please, in your discussion concerning further development of
Lions Ridge, take consideration of the people presently living
there and plan a better future for Vail.

Dear Mr. B1air:
Since I will be out of town and unable to attend the
meeting of ApriJ- l-7th. I would like to present my
vj-etrs in writing as you invited in your notice of April
Ist. My wife and I own unit number 218 in the Brook
Tree Condominium. We have been concerned recently upon
hearing of all the develoPment that is slated immediately
adjacent to Brook Tree. We understand there is a develop-
rnent going in to the south caIled Cottonwood Place plus
developing of considerable size immediately adjacent to
the east and west, which I don't know the name of but
assume is the sky Lion which you refer to in your hearing
notice.
The thing that concerns us is the thing that seems to
be on everybodys mind these days, namely density and the
related problerns which arise out of too great a density'
while I am a business man and as a matter of personal-
philosophy I respect the right of the owners of these
properties to develop them and make the profit to which
they're entitled, I would certainly hope that such a
thing as vehicular traffic, parking, seri/age disposal,
availability of water, as well as, other environmental
considerations will be given the top priority that they
deserve. I don't pretend to be an expert in these matters

by any means and as I said I don't want to stand in the
way of other peopJ-e exercising their property rights, dt
the same time, of course, it's my fervent hope that you
and the other members of the Planning comnission wil-l
see to it that the rights of the other property owners
in the area will not be damaged due to over development.
Thank you so much.

Dear l,Ir . Blalr:
I am an owner of a unit at BrookTree-at-Vall in the Lionsridge
subdivislon. I an also on the Board of Dl.rectors of the Condominium
AssociatLon, and we heLd our annual trEeting thls past Thursday.
No or.rrer is so unrealistic as to expect nothing else will be
built around us s ince there are additional sites to the east and r^7est
of BrookTree. Ho\^7ever, to find out for the flrst tlme this past week
that anyone could be conteurpl-ating condominiuo units directly across
Red Sandstone Creek from BrookTree is unthinkable. (Cottonwood Place).
We had been told time after
to Eagle County by the former Eagle
as Princevill-e Corporation.
tine that area was a park dedicated
County Development Company now known
We are aware that Eagle County did not until recently have the
control-s necessary to regulate growth in an orderly fashion. Itrs t ime
now, and undoubtedly past time, to make some sense out of Lionsridgets
growth. A good scarting point would be Cottonwood Place. The large
stand of Cottonwood trees on the east side of the creek will be destroyedt
parking and access routes to that area are trernendously congested alreadyt
many questl-ons are unanswered relatLve to sewer and ltater capacities for
the enttre area (and that relates to fire hazards) to say nothlng of block-
ing Brooklree.view pLanes and disrupting the general serenity of the are.
Itrs tftne Eagle County stood up to be counted in favor of controlled
growth, and an ideal- starting point ls with Cottonwood Place. Other counties
are dol,ng it and rnaking it stlck.
Thank you for any additional consideratlons you might be able to glve
to this project.

Dear Mr. Blalr:
I am a condoniniun owner ln the BrookTree Condoniniums
on the Red Sandstone creek in vail (Unit 304). tlhile up inVail a few days ago, I awoke one nornlng only to find a bull-
dozer outeide my bedroon balcony. After investigatlng the situa-tion, I discovered that an apartment conplex, yj54- CottonwoodPlace, was under construction.
One of the najor factors influenclng Ey decision to
buy t.his particular unit on the Creek was the privacy the areaoffered along with the beautif,ul view of Vail Village Proper.Furthernore, and nore iuportantly, Vail has gror"n very haphazardly
over the past few years, and I purchased ln the Lion'e Ridge areaso aa to avoid the turrnoil and rapid growth of the Village withthe hope that Eagle County would take measures to prevent. this
sane haphazard growth on the north side of the Interstate. Red
Sandstone Road, aa it now exists, is already over trafficked and
has not been maintalned properly in order to non handle thetraffic that already exists let alone that, whj.ch would be causedby the development. of additional complexea in the area. Additional-ly, the Red Sandstone Creek will, in all probabillty, not be ableto handle any nore pressures on its banks ae well as the abuse lt
would have to take frorn surrounding construction (i.e. dumping ofrefuse).
I{lth the construction of nore residential type conplexes
vEr. recreational type complexes, problems such as dogs, security,etc. becon€ more abundant.
It is ny hope as weLl aa that, I' sure, of most condo-niniun owners in the arealthat Eagle County will see fit to con-trol the growth in Lions Ridge and protect the aesthetlc envlron-
nent that now exists and t,hat will be greatly infringed upon for-
ever if action is not gg taken to prevent further construction
and to protect what little land yet r€nains in the tions Ridge area.

Dear Mr. Blair:
The Brooktree Condominlum Association has notifled me of the proposed
Cottonwood Place development. As the general partner of a partnership
owning a unit at Brooktree, I must protest this project vigorously.
The Cottonwood development would do the following things that could
drastlcally affect our property value:
I. Create greater density in the Llons Ridge area.2. Destructlon of trees and vlew of the ski area would destroy
the aesthetic settlng of the Brooktree.3. Vehicle traffic would be greatly lncreased,4. The park area, as it was explalned to me, will become a
multi-unit development.
Por the reasons I mentlon above,
Plannlng Commlssion should take
wood development.
WGT,IT:mb
AIR MATL
and many more that are obvious, the
a harsh view of the contemplated Cotton-

Dear Sirs:
I live in the Almond Apartments on Red Sandstone Road in
West Vail and am very upset about the proposed building of
the Cottonwood apartments directly west of us. I do not believe
there is enough space in that area to build 24 apartments as
Cunnj-ngham and Dudley Abbott have planned. I also can not
beli-eve that there will be room for adequate parking and a
common green area. The only room for green area is the Red
Sandstone creek. I have noticed that some of the dirt has
been bulldozed into the creek to make more land. It therefore
appears that the developers realize they are lacking in space.
Regarding parking, the Almond Apartments (15 of them)
have enough parking for everyone. However, in the winter the
parking is barely adequate with alL the snow. ft is necessary
to use the upper lot of the Almond Apts. and the spaces in
front of the Almondts house. The situation would be worse
if it were not for the fact that the parking spaces are each
directly accessible from Red Sandstone Road which is regularly
plowed. The proposed Cotton\^rood project will not have the
advantage of the close proximity to Red Sandstone Road, making
it all the more important to have more than adequate parking.
Otherwise the tenants wil-l be using the Sandstone and Almond
parki.ng spaces. This yearf Brooktree tenants used the upper
Al-mond 1ot and wal-ked across the creekl
Concerning green area, the Almond Apartments have an
area of land at the back (due west) of the apartmenLs thaL
has been left natural. This has afforded privacy and an
enjoyable view from the balconies. I fear the Cottonwood
apartments will be built right up to the Almondts property line.
Not only wil-1 the privacy be destroyed, but the new apartments
will be getting the benefit of the Almond green area without
providing any themselves.
With the building. of the Cottonwood Apartments, the Sandstone
area will be very crov#d. At the present time there is no place
for children to play and there are many dogs. Please prevent
this project from being built and thus maintain a high quality
of life in the rapidly growing Eagle -Vail area. Thank you.

As president of the Board of Managers for the Sandstone 70 Condominium
Associatj.on which represents 67 owners I woulil like to bring to your
attention a project north of our complex, located west of the Almond
Apartments and adjacent to Red Sandstone Creek which is jointly owned,
I believe, by Dudley Abbott and Jim Cunningham of Vail.
The Board of Managers is concerned that the project should come under
careful consideration of the County Planning Board so that the following
points would be considered:
1. Is the County stream setback requirement being respected?
2. what are the landscaping plans?
what parking facilities will be utilized as there is already a
problem in the Sandstone area with persons Parking in private spaces
and on Red sandstone Road, Excessive vbhicles creates difficulties
with snow rernoval.
What will be the density of the project?
I^lhat amenities are being provided for the proposed 24 units?
we would hope that the county would revi ew this project carefully. Thank
you for your consideration.

Dear Rod and l"tike:
It has ccnre to our attentiqr that Dudley Abbott is starting constnrction of
apartments on a trnrcel of g:round he owns wtrich is directly north of the Sandstone
70 cordcnrinir-uns, ard raest of the AJrrond atrErtments. Wb as residents of tlle area
object to this project. lrle feel that the trnrcel of ground will not zup;nrt the
24 protrnsed apartments, especially with tlre ocnsequent ploblens that will develop
wten they are oc',crpied year round.
Iltren considerirg the project, please give attention to the follotring:
1. There will be a detrjrnental effect on the strean adjacent to the properEy.
O:e of tlre nrcst vital aspects to ccnsiden is ttre 30 foot setback fisn tle
stream. Vib have already seen that tris bulldozing of the site has polluted
the strean.
2. Ttre density proposed will trave an adverse effect on the area.
3. the anpr:nt of open "gTeen" space on the propenty wilt be nil--there is rpt
enough grcund for tris proposed alnrtrnents ard any o[Etl space -
4. ftre parking plan for tlre apartments rnrst be seriously considered. Itris is a
veq/ congested area at the present tirne, and we feel ve4z strongly that the
addition of 24 apartments will result in tle parking of 50 to 75 cars. Unless
tlre pnoject is required to have an undetgror:nd parking garage for all tenantsl
cars, ttret, will park in the Sandstone ccrr[>le>(, on the Alrnond properq/, along
ned SardJtone Road, and Red Sandstqre Circle. fhese areas are already congested
try cars, especially iI the winter, and tfe area sjnply cannot sutrport the
additional brrrden of off-site parking.
Vile are concerned ttr,at this project, if it is built as pr.oposed, wil-l be a problen
area for years to ccrne. that is wtry ve are requestfuIg ttlat proper action be takert

It was brought to my attention yesterday that Dudley Abbott and Ji-m Cunningham
of Vail were proceeding with ttreir r24-unii' Project located d-i:lectly north
of the Sandstone 7O complex and adj acent to Red Sandstone Creek- An onsite
inspection this morning revealed that with thej.r scrapping of the surface
axea the debrj-s had been pushed toward Red Sandstone Creek and had literally
rolled to the waterrs edge. This is in direct violation of the County's 3O-
foot setback. If the contractor is violating Coulty regulations at the onset
of the project, what will occur when actual excavation ls unde:;ay?
The Vail Town office confirned that Dudley Abbott had presented a proposal
to the Tovm of Vail regarding having this lanit annexed i but thae ilr. Abbott
had held off. Inasmuch as the Town of Vaj-I would probably have liniied the
density of the -area to mediun density nulii-family rather tha:r '&e high density
multi-faraily, and the fact that the County is gaining on zoning' regrrlations;
is this a RUSE job under the zoninqi wire?
Vehicular circulation is a significant facior. During periods cf rapid heavy
sno\"rs Reil Sandstone Road is a real hazard. Cars cannot clinb the hill adjacent
to the ALmond Apartments and what with cars parked along the Red Sandstone Road
it is impossibLe for adequate snow renovat to take place. !',aren the rPotato
patchr becomes a reality with a proj ected peak population of 5ci persons'
the Lions Ridge area becomes more dense, traffic on the relative-]y narrow
Red Sandstone Road will become even more critical.
Will this Abbott-Cunningham project supply enough parkinq wi-uhir the property

Dear Rod and l,Like:
It has c:me to our attentiqr tlnt Dudley Abbott is starting constrruction of
aparunents on a parcel of ground he cnms vdrj-ch is directly north of the Sardstone
70 condqniniunrs, and west of the Alnrcnd apartrnents. !{e as residents of the area
object to this project. We feel that tlte percel of g:ound will not sulporE the
24 proposed apertrnents, especially wittr the consequent problans that. will develop
wten they are occupied year round.
When c-onsidering tle project, please give attention to tJle follovdng:
l. I'lrere will be a detrjmental effect on tte stredn adjacerrt to the proPerty.
One of the nrcst vital aspects to ccnsider is the 30 foot setback frcro the
stream. We have alreacly seen that his trrlldozing of tfie site has polluted
the stream.
2. The density proposed will have an adverse effecL on tlre area.
3. TLre anpunt of open rr6is'selr, space on the property w:-11 be nil--tfiere is nOt
enough grqlrd f.:r tris proposed apartnents and any open space.
4. Itre parkilg plan for ttre aprtrnerrts must be seriously considered. Itris is a
very congested area at ttle preserrt tjme, and we feet verlt strongly that the
addition of 24 aparunents witl result in ttp parking of 50 to 75 cars. Unless
the project is requi-red to have an undergrorxd parklng garage for all tenantst
cars, they will park il the Sandstone ccnple>c, on tl.e AIrcnd p:ropertl" along
Red Sandstone noad, ano Red Sandstcne Ci-rcle" Ttpse areas are already congested
try cars, especially in the wjnter, and the area sirpi-y cannot suS4rort the
additional trurden of off-site *@l
!{e are concerned that this project, if it is builL as prrrposed, will be a problent
area for years to cctne. Ibat is why !€ are requesting tirat proper acLion be talcen
rrcrur to insure a groper baLance befi,'reen land, building, oEEIr space, parkjrg areas'

3. The stream channel at the high roater level mark, on the plans, indicaces only
a 5 to 10 foot stream width at high water. We believe this is inadequate.
4. It appears that an adequate number of parking spaces have not been provided.
5. Access for fire equipment to the units located at the North end of the property
appears to be inadequa t e.
6. The lot coverage of buildings and parking areas appears to be too large for the

DATE: March 21,
RE: Cottonwood Place
In an effort to clarify the direction of the lot irnmediately west of the Almond
Apartments and north of the Sandstone 70 complex, we wil'l in this letter try to
outline some facts with respect to the project that Mr. J. Dudley Abbott and myselfwill be developing.
To give you a brief history of the project, in 0ctober we reviewed w'i th the arch-itect, Mr. Mike'Blair, in person in the county offices the direction that we must -
take for our project. He sta.ted at that time that'we did not have to go through
the county subdivision regulations. We were left with the decision of how to de-
velop the project and how to'p1an the size and scope of the building. l.le decided
that inasmuch as the land would eventua'lly be annexed to the Town of Vai'l that we'
should use'the medium density, multi-family regulat'ions'imposed by the Town of Vail.
In January, we-met with the building inspector, Mr. Douglas, whose office is'in the
same room with Mr. Robert Bam and Mr. Mike Blair and again at that time vile were
not advised that we had to go through the county subdivision regulations. ll.|e were
advised by Mr; Douglas that he would need some sort of document w'ith respect to the
flood plain and the creek. 0n February t6, t974, we submitted a building appli-
cation to Mr. Lester Douglas in the presence again of I'lr. Robert Barr. .Up untilthis time, still no corment about county subdivision regulations. 0n February 18,
1974, we sent a photocopy of the surveyor's op'inion with respect to the flood plain.
and the creek. l,le were not advised until March 20, 1974, that there t,tas any con-
cern about county subdivision regulations and our only knowledge of th'is came strictly
from rumors that there was going to be a meeting and a hearing and thqp the proiect
would try to be on the'agenda for the county meeting on March 20, L974'. Unfortun-

:'..:'l{e have as of this date, March 2!, 1974, removed the 24 to 3 feet of haywhich we - _ -:
p'laced on the site last October in an effort to keep the freezing out of the ground. . t '
In addition, we have done surveying on the site to locate lot lines, etc. To'date, .

]hq Rroject consists of 24-units, I - 56L sq. ft. one bedroom apartments, and 16 -. -:
737 sq. ft, two bedroom,.two bath apartments. The total build'ing consists of '
16,264 sq. ft. This is a .52 f'loor area rat'io. For your information, the floor - -. 'area ratio, number.of units, and building plan were designed to conform with the'medium- :density' multi-family bu'ildiirg requ'irements that present'ly exist in the Town of '-
Vail. The-actual grilund coveiage of the first flbor is q'+AA sq. ft. or a ground
.coverage of building of not greater than 15% of the'lot. Parking coverage is ap--. .-
proximately 10,000 sq. ft. , or 30i[ of the ]ot. Total coverage of the buildingsandparkingdoesnotexceed45%ofthelot.This]eaves55%ofthesiteavailab]e
for green space, green belt, recreation areas. Parking provided is 32 spaces. : l
In tabulating the parking spaces we used a combination between the present Vail
medium density, mu1ti-family reiluirement for parking spaces and the county require.ment. A strict 'interpatation of the county would require 36 spaces on the site.
A strict interpatation of the Town of Vail's-parrking requirernent would require
13 spaces. Obvious'ly, we have been more in favor of the larger requirement and caneasily add the additional four spaces should it be required. However, we wouldnot recorffnend this inasmuch as it would take out sone attract'ive green belt areasthat presently exist. . .-
Ingress to the site will be between the south end of the Almond Apariments and the nortlr - '
end of the Sanstone '70 complex at which area there is an easement for ingress andegress. Snow removal can be easily effected by pushing the snow from the south tothenorthandfromthesouthtothewestatthesouthendofthebui1ding.inad-dition, the deve'lopers are prov'iding covered parking for 16 of the 32 spices pro-,vided. This is done in a drive-in-fashion on the east side of the building where :
snow would not co1 lect and should help al'leviate the snow removal problen. _ .
bJe well realize the hazard that exist in the Sandstone areas around tlie Almond A-partments and consequently would like to confine ouri ngress and egress to the site
south of Almond's and north of the Sandstone 170 apartments. However, our site plan
and land purchase does allow us to have an easement to the north which would allow' :
us to enjoin the traffic sjtuat'ion on the northerly portion of the Sandstone '70road. l,|e fee'l that the grad'ient here is a problem;that the curve is a problem; ardthat it is not the ideal situation for ingress and egress. Additionally, the Al-
mond Apartments are extremely tight on providing adequate parking and aie presently
using a portion of this'for parking and for their snow removal . Should we take
over this land, it would create a further hardship w'ith respect to an already dif-ficult situation for the Almond's.

l,l!!h respect to set back.requirements, vle can.meet the county requirements inall aspects including the 30 foot set back. The only place that this creates aproblem j1 that it moves the northerly mos! section bf'tne building in.an,east- -.
erly fashion and ten& to crowd the spacial relationships, architecturally andaesthetically' between the Almond Apartments,and Cottonwood Place.. At this -
point the northeast corner of our building, only a 7r2 foot set back is required.ac-
cording to the county. Additiodally, we have a letter from a resident-eng'ineer and
surveyor with repsect to the flood plain and drainage system on Sandstone '70.-.: ..- '..
This emphatically states that the building as presently sited and as proposed doesnot create a hazard or problem with respect to the drainage, flood plaj n;or the-creek. |*le m'ight also state that the entire creek lies in a westerly fashion of the ''.majority of our land. Consequently, w€, in all cases, have a greater set backthan!heTownofVailrequiresandcancomplywiththe.countyina]lrespects.-
There are several clumps of Aspen trees on the easterly portion:of the lot that will
screen Cottonwood Place from the Almond Apart.ments. A11 of the bigger Aspen trees '
are dead' and only the smaller ones wh'ich are-less than 20 feet appear at this time
according to our survey to be on the Almond property. In no way will i,re disturb
the trees or foliage on Almond's properties.
We intend for Cottonwood place to be a quality apartment compTex. We, also, intend
over the years to fu1 ]y cooperate with the Town of Vail to affect annexation of thisproperty into the town so that it can be better served and have better quality of ,-fire protection, pol-ice protection, etc.
l'le would appreciate any discussjons of the project to revolve around factual data
and information such as we have provided you above. l.le would be more than happy , -.tomeetwithanyofybuatanytimetofurtherdiscussthisproject.PIansare
at our office as well as additional support data to verify the information given
above.
Very truly yours,
