Design Review Board Approval ofVail Transportation Center Landscape Plan
The following stipulations were made by the Design Review Boardduring the approval process for the Vail Transportation Center:
1. Paint the generator the same green color as to!,rers and turnthe exhaust toward the south.
2. Cut concrete wall in front of Vail Information Center to 1811to 20rt height. Cap with sandstone or veneer with stone. Iwould probably prefer veneer with rainbow mix.
3. Strong reconrnendation to cut down stair bullding in fronL ofVaiI fnformation Center. Gary Murrain is working on a costestirnate.
4. Raise rrVail Infornationrt sign to meet horizontal leve1 andpaint green. Soften light source.
5. Stucco stair building at north east^ corner and curved wallfacing south side ski Museum. dral h(re&"f
6. fnclude hanging baskets on light poles where possible.
7. Add container plan to central stair area.
Mike, would you take care of nurnbers 1", 4 and 5? I wi]l includenumbers 2, 6 and 7 in my work. Werll wait on #3 to see what thecost is.

For the record, Ned felt satisfj.ed that we were doing all wecould on the snou storage area. We should nonitor the operationnext winter and keep good records. This night assist injustifying eguipment and manpower if needed in the future.
A11 of the Design Review Board rnenbers were pleased with the plan
and with the work that has gone on so far.
I want to thank both of you for your help in getting this project

Landscaping at VTRC Snow Storage Area
The eventual landscape treatrnent of the Vair rransportationcenter snow storage area is of great concern to the entire Townof vail-. As you are aware the Design Review Board indicatedserLous concerns on the northeast corner of the structure aboutthe lack of landscaping. As you are also aware, it is veryinportant that we do not delay the completion oi trris projict.
Tle- basic probten that we are faced with is maintaining our ovrnhigh standards of landscape design and aesthetic quali€.y whireallowing for removal of snow in a manner which is botb Limely andwithin the limits of the resources allocated.
There are many factors to consider in reaching a solution to thisrather difficult design probrern. These can be outlined in thefollowing manner.
f. Aesthetic Concerns:
It is unfortunate that the snow storage area is also thearea that needs landscaping ttre most. This is the onlyplace on the structure where the parking deck and parkedcars are visible from the Frontage Road and rnterstate. Thehigh, bare wall is also unattraciive.
Memoranduro to Ron phit lipsJune 4, 1,991
Page 2
II. Function Concerns:
As a result of the councir decision to create coupon parkingon the exposed upper deck the sno\d removal priorily oi thatarea changed from low to hiqh. snow must be cleared. fromthe ramps before Z:OO a.m. instead of 10:00 or tllO0 a.m.on-site, winter-long snow storage or the structure is verylinited. snow must be roadea aia hauled frequently throulhthe winter. The structure is below the villjge anlLionshead commercial areas for snow hauling pii"ii[y.
IfI . Economic Concerns:
changes to the snow removal opere.tions wilr have budgetaryinpacts. Mr. Burnett feeLs that the snow removat opSrati6nis stretched about as far as possibre with the exisii;;---resources. rn February you stated that additionar personneland equipnent were five to sLx years auay.
There are several options available in trying to reaeh asolution. six are incruded here for seri6us-consideration.others have been erininated already for various reasons. Thoseinclude a snow nert pit (cost); coiering trre structure (cost,aesthetics, and operational piobrens); lnow mert heatini lcoit orinstallation and operation) .-
The six options are outlined, below. rrve tried to list some prosand cons for each alternative.

- Increase in operating budget.
The total cost llsted can be divided betweenpark rnaintenance and snow removal aE follows:

Snow - $149,0L0
- Total cost assunes employees at the top ofpay range - actual cost would be less untilthat level was achieved.

Follow Up on Design Review Board Meeting Comments on May 15, 1991
I have tried to summarize the points the staff needs to follow up on for the final Design
Review Board approval (hopefully) of the Village Parking Structure Landscape Plan. This
meeting is scheduled for June 5, 1991 .
1. The snow storage area on the northeast corner of the parking structure must be
addressed. The Board felt strongly that landscaping in this area is critical. lt was
suggested that snow storage perhaps occur on the southeast corner of the structure.
A revised snow removal plan for the top of the structure was also suggested. I think
we all agree that this area of the structure needs landscaping. We need to think of a
creative solution for the snow removal. ls there any way to focus more of our snow
removal equipment and people resources at the structure in order to address this
design concern? Greg also mentioned the possibility to me of removing the decel lane
into the parking structure. Perhaps by removing the lane and expanding out the
landscaping, additional snow storage could occur in this area west of the structure
entrance. The bottom line is, the DRB is very clear that large spruce trees need to be
planted in front of the structure, particularly along the Frontage Road. We need to
figure out a way to make this happen and still address snow removal.
2. The area in front of the Information Center along the Frontage Road should allow for
better visibility of the Center. Layering the landscaping was suggested as a possible
solution. I think the removal of a portion of the concrete sidewalk, as suggested on our
site visit, is also a good idea. Sherry suggested a possible plaza area with the
American flag.
3. Painting the concrete was suggested instead of sandblasting the structure, Ned
Gwathmey had some specs on tints that may be appropriate lor the structure. lf
possible, it would be great if we could actually show the DRB some test colors on the
structure lor the June 5 meeting. We also need to document if this approach is within
our budoet.
4.
5.
We need to finalize our decision on the concrete cutting. The DRB agreed that the
concrete cutting should occur in lhe main stair conidor where the most impact can be
achieved.
We need to determine if the planter in the main stair corridor can be expanded. There
was some question if the structure beneath this area could hold a planter. I
recommend we expand the planter and perhaps use only shrubs and flowers in the top
area. The impact would be worth it if structurally feasible.
The deck planters should be figured out. We should determine if the planters should
be wood, stone, or colored concrete. lt would also be positive if we could have a
summer arrangement and a winter rearangement to allow for snow removal so we
would always have some type of vegetation on the top deck. Perhaps during the
wintertime, the planters could be clustered so that snow removal would not be so
difficult.
The treatment of the curb at the base of the planter by Slifer Square should be
decided. An option of incorporating boulders along this planter edge was
recommended on the site visit.
By the south side of the structure, adjacent to the Vail Athletic Club, a planted, two-
tiered wall was proposed. In general, the Design Review Board really liked the design.
ls it possible to allow for a little space on these terraces to incorporate one or two
small sculptures? | understand why the niches have been taken out of the design.
However, I think this option would be easy to allow for. Any interest?
The sidewalk on the east end of the structure needs to be studied. I advocate
removing the sidewalk for now, and observing where people actually walk. This seems
to be an improvement that could easily be constructed in the future. I think this money
could be used more effectively in the main stair corridor for concrete cutting. This
would be my recommendation. However, we need to come to a group solution.
The DRB recommended that flower beds and deciduous trees be extended along the
southwest end of the structure, to be compatible with the color added in the main
corridor and the southeast end of the structure on the terraced walls. Sherry
suggested using the concept of planting "scallops."
It was decided that the pocket park on the southwest corner of the structure was not
necessary at this time. lt was suggested we keep this option open by allowing for
expansion off of the stair plaza. The landscaping plan should be designed with this in
mind.
12. Type of rock by the Sonnenalp planter across from the soulhwest corner of the parking
structure needs to be addressed. The existing planter is moss rock. Rock type for
planter extension needs to be determined.
I think we should plan a 2 hour site visit on June 5 with the Design Review Board. I would
like lo schedule the site visit even earlier, however I know George Lamb and Gena Whitten
will be gone over the next few weeks. I think it is important that everybody has the
opportunity to understand how the plan relates to the structure.

In addition, I sent a copy of the plan with notes to Jeff Winston. I have asked lor his
comments by May 28, 1991. I would like to schedule the revised landscape plan for
discussion at interdepartmental on May 29, 1991. This will hopefully assure we are all on he
same wavelenglh as to what will actually be presented on June 5. Thanks for all the eftort on
this landscape plan. lt is a very important project for us and the community.

Dear Sir:
I would like to call the following situation to Vourf-.f/)'attention in case you are not aware of it \,,tllY'
W-A^iLast fa11 we. installed the pavers for Vail parking I| i ;Structure as a sub. contractor for pCL Constructi.on- 5r" t / \Lto negligencg by our then employee, Scott Coalrnan, the L\l '
.pavers provided by colorado ionlrete were not trre'e*act shade lrr^ rlQlwanted by the project architect. It was decided by the (/;'larchitect, PcL & us to lay those pavers rather than delay the ) 1
fob_- possibly untiL spring - and to negotiate a price adjustment,To date we have recieved no payment for materi.at or labor-on
^n:Lnthis job. The labor and related taxes, of course we have llllfalready had to pay. The suppliers r,,re owe have been patient ftrtUbut are now threatening legal action. idD-''^nP- ^we are a small seasonar company. I'te can not financially l/'"vJ)absorb the 969 t238.oo we are owed and continue to operate. ' a U ^Negotiations between pcl,, the architect & vail =."*'il*i]rr" t r.t')41brokendown totarly. we agreed to a i 0* deduct - that was Uet, "
rej ected.
From the information I can nov/ garner,headed for the courts, f have filed a claimthatrs no help to us now.
I do not understand why we can not be paid on this jobgiven that vail recelved a useabre income pioducing product
3nd, r assume, had pre-allocated funds to pay tor it. It hasbeen five months since we completed the joL.
am asking for your help in this matter as f reallydon't know how to proceed or who to talk to and time isrunnipg short. our credit is already ruined and it's notokaypr our company to go under because of this.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciat

Dear Scott:
I am writing this letter in response to your letter dated
February 28, 1991- concerning the lane indicator lights at the
main entry. I feel it is necessary to correct the history ofthis project. As I stated in my February 27, l-990 letter, on
January 31, 1990, the Design Review Board gave final approval to
the Vail village Parking Structure Expansion with the following
condition:
1. The signage, entry and lighting for the project will be
presented to the Design Review Board at an upcoming rneeting
as soon as possible.
On llarch 7, 1990, the entry for the Vail Village Parking
Structure was approved. The approved drawj-ng from Michael Barber
Architects is dated March 7, L99O. At that meeting, there was no
discussion of the indicator lights. In fact, the Design Review
Board approval stated: "lighting and signage to be reviewed by
Design Review Board at a later date.tr Please see the attached
March 7, 1991 DRB approva} sheet.
In addition, when the signage for the entire Parkinqr Structure
was reviewed, there was no infornation on the indicator lights in
the subrnittal package.

My purpose for outlining the seguence of events here is to
emphasize that tlrese llghts were never dLscussed at Design Review
Board level . I believe we can rectlfy thls situation by bringingthe proposal to the oesign Review Board at their April 3rd
rneeting.
If you have any further questions about this iten, please feeJ-free to contact me. Once again, I believe the issue can beresolved. However, I think it is i-mportant to nake sure that thehistory of the project is accurate.

Dear Ed:
Public Works/Transportation
As we discussed on the phone, this retter is to inform you of theproposed construction at the Village Transportation center thissunmer.
we are currentry soriciting bids from four pre-qualifiedcontractors to expand and remodel the Transportation tenter. Bidswill close Aprir 24th and we hope to issue-a notice to proceed totlre successful contractor on l{ay lst.
we have included an add arternative in the bid for the contractorto maintain linited parking in the structure during construction.Hohtever' the price of providing parking courd b-e prohibitive.Although the Lionshead parking stlucture witt be aiailable forsulnmer parking, we are reguesting that parking be allowed on thenorth side of the south Frontage Road duiing construction frorn thefour-way stop east to Ford park. parking would be prohibited whenconstruction activities make for unsafe parking conditions. Thisparking would allow people to gain direcl acceis to vail village.
Please carl rne lf you have any guestions or desire any additionalinforrnation. Thank you for consideration of this reqirest.

RE: Vall Transportatlon Genter
Project Numbet 29289
Dear Stan:
This correspondence should be considered as a continuation of our letter ol
10 July 1990 regarding the form of the enerior concrete stairs and the choices
available to the Town of Vail. We understand thd the Town of Vail Building
Department has granted the Tonn of Vail a variance to thg ICBO interpretation
c, rhe 1988 Uniform Building Code (UBG) Section 3306(c), to permit
construction of the stairs as cunently detailed. (See Option 1 of reterenced
letter).
Our previous letter reviewed the evolution of the stair design as it related to the
requirements of tr|e Design Review Boarcl (DRB) and previous reviev', by the
Torn of Vail Building Departmert The tollowing are some of the differences
between the existing (nor demolished) stair and the cunent des(]n.
1. Width: The available exit width of the previorrs central stair
was approximately 16' at East Meadow Drive. The
nerv staifsi will be approximatev 25'€' wide at the
sarne location, an irrcrease a/-9112'. Stairs at the SW
corner of the structure are also similarly widened.
2. Configuration: The previous central stair was very irregular in form.
Each stair run veriect in width and orientation from the
prer/io|ls in an unpredictable fashion. The stair user
was forced to change dired'on at each landing, often
while carrying a pair d skis ov€r the shoulder.
The new stairc are more regular in configuration. The
number of changes in direction for the stair user is
reduced and mo\rement is relatively more direct.

3. Condition:
4. Handrails:
The prwious stairs were in a deteriorated condition.
Cmcrete was chipped at nosings and areas were
spalling. Some areas did not have positive drainage,
resulting in ponding of wder.
The new stairs are designed to drain posltlvely. The
concrete will be new and unworn,
The prer/ious stairs used wooden rails. These rails did
not meet cunent codes in that they did not extend the
proper distance beyond top and bottom nosings and
the prdile of the rail did not meet curent exit or
handicap standards.
The new rails are painted ornamental iron and pipe,
of the proper extension and profile.
Please call if you have any funher guestions regarding this issue, As you are
a\rvare, a timely resolution b important as construction of the central stair is
underway.

RE: Vell Traneportatlon Centel
Proiect Number 22289
Dear Stan:
This conespondence is In reeporlse to the ruling ol Mr. Gary Murrain, Chief
Building Official lor the Town of Vail, pertaining to hb interpretation of the .1988
Uniform Building Code (UBC) Sestion 3806(c). Mr. Munain believes the elderior
stairs, as des(?necl, should not be permitted due to ryariable tread lengths due
to varying width and curudure of stairways that will disrupt the rhythm and
movement d occupants attempting to use the stainivays.. we undersland Mr.
Munain has based his interpretation on an interpretation by the lnternational
Conference of Building O{ficials (ICBO). Only der a meering on g Juty 1990
between Mr. Murrain and myself, did it become clear that all exterior stairs with
a curyed wall would be affected by this interpretation.
It is our belief that the stain^,ays as designed will provide the Vail Transponation
Center with a condition thar is as le€st equal to the existing stairways that have
served the community for the paS 18 years.
As you are awarE, the stairuays proposed tor conslruction have evolved from
schematic designs initially proposed by Michaet Barber Architecture. Our initial
design, which was reiec.tsd by the Design Review Board (DRB), had straight run
stairways which conlorms with the code intepr€na$on of Mr. Murrain. The DRts
requested that curving walls be used at the stairways in an anempt to provide
a more sensitive and free lloring feeling, similar to the existing stairways
scheduled lor replacemeril. Th€ ORB would pr€fer to rebuild the existing stairs
exactly, without regard to accommodatlng more people. The DRB cited the
Lionshead parking structure, which has straight run s{aiF, as being ar,
unacceptable approach to the design of the new stairway. Consequently,
curys were introduc€d to the stair design which werg late. approved by the
DRB enabling Michael Barb€r Architecture to proceed with the production of
the construction documents. A set of design development dranings, which
included the curved staitway design, was forwarded to Mr. Murrain for initia.
rwiew and @mment prior to cornpletion of the construction documents. At that
time, Mr. Munain made no mention to the stairs not conforrning to code

Given the fact thd Mr. Murrain will not supercede the positbn raken by the
ICBO, we off€r two approaches to be considered lor the resolrrtion of this issue.
Optkrn 1: Request that a varianca to the code interp.etdion be granted by
the Torrn of Vail Building Depanrnent altorring the staiMays to be
constructed as design€d.
OSbn 2: Conslcler an altemde design soMion that would sdisfy the code

FROM: ToddJohnson Q-
RE: Norrompliance wtfuORB Submittal 1-31-90
h response to concerns thai ihe l-31-90 plans have noi 'Deen strictly adhered to, Civitas allered the landscape plans
t0 respond t0 design issues at a more detailed level. The lollowing reasons are given lor plan alleralions:
i !) Budget constrainls of the project made it mandatory that the design respond lo cosubenefit concerns.
/--<a\
i 2i / The cost ol savirq/relocating cerlain existing lrees was prohibitive when judged against other options.
3. While il is cerlainly not appealing to cut existing lrees, new trees can be installed for 25% to 33% of the cost of
saving/relocating the old. Relocating trees vs. nerv fees resulls in fewer trees, slow growth for the next few
years and no guarantee of suMval.
4. Relocating the existing plant material back on the Vail Parking Garage (VPG) site enlails twice transplantirg the
material. The chances of plant mortalitylnshllalion of nursery-grown stack are much grealer. We are better
off relying on grealer numbers ol nurserygrown material.
5. The enclosed memorandum outlines lhe comDarison between the DBB submittal and the CD Submittal. You will
note lhat additional numbers of trees, shrubs and groundcovers are included in the C.D. design.
6. The CD Submittal is based on a more definilive sludy of the existing conditions and options inherent in this
concept.
Fleldwork done during the excavation process appears to be done withoul regard for the relocation of on-site plant
material, specifically lhe spruce grove beneath the bus terminal. The following assumptions and improvements have
and will be made to address the DRB concerns.
!. Slan Berryman will personally tag and ideniity the iaG oi eacn of the 37 planls in question.
2. Documenlation of this strategy shall be provided to DHB and Diane Donovan.
3. Documentation of the improvements to the DRB plan is provided by Civitas as per the memo sent to Chris
Thomas ilay 18, 1990.
lf means ol lransfening credits lor planting UPG trees on exisling parks are possible, this money should be used for
exta planliru at lhe Parking Garage. Diana and Stan will explore this possibility. The memorandum ol compadson
between DRB and CD's and the identification of where all 37 trees will be relocated provides the documentation
necessary for the work lo continue. This documentation and the phone conversalion shall address the concerns of the
May 16 memorandum from Kristan Pritz.

Re: Vail Transportation Center
Dear Chds:
The loilowing information is in response to your phone call.of 17 ,May, 1990 in wnich y} rH9ild^lht concerns ol the
or-rib]iiilrri"r" eoaiJ pertaining I ree'irimoviryrerocations snluin on he constrJction documents' After further
itr-Oi of rne besign Odvebpme'nt-inO ionstructlon drawings, I can report the fol6wing information:
A. The D/d plan submitted and approved by the DRB.indicates 39 trees to be removed. sheet L1 of the
constrr.lclion docutenf pa.t add marks /6 trees to be removed. This is an increase over he D/d plan of 37 trees'
This increase is due lo the following factors:
1. 19 lrees were fost Ourinqine rigiading of the excessively steep slope (approx. 1:1 gradient) west of
the exisling central stair.
2. g tees weie lost during grading refinements during construction documenl preParation.
3. 6lrees were lost due tdp-oor access which would prevent relocation'
4. 3 trees were lost due to very poor health'
B. Oiring fte
-D/d
pttase, it wainop6dthat frees marted on tfp phns to be relocaled could-bemoved elsewhere on
site. tt became apparenr rh;l;l;lJ.onsitatn schedulirg an-d con1icts w1h necessary grading in lhe area
where trees would be |,ero.itiOl it *tJ oecided in conced idith Stan Berryman that trees wluld be removed by
lhe Town and retocateo erfr-hird ritrriir'Jio*n of vail. This is fie moit economical and etficient manner in
which to nandle those trees in need of relocalion due lo new conslruction'
C. Planting new treet .s oppottO iJitlociting existing trees is he most eflicient method of acheiving a desirable
plan. Lioking strictly at bollar amounts, we can assume the following.l ..1. Average cost ol tree relocation by contrachr using standard-horticultural praclices: $1'000'00
Toul i'or 37 removed trees (in exiess of 39 shown on D/d plans): $37'000'00
It should be noted that thesd relocated lrees would carry no warrtlnty'
Cosl of new 14'evergreen, including 1 year warranty: $550'00
Total for 37 new trees: $20,350.00
This dilference enabtes us to inshll a greater number ol trees (which carry a warranty period)' while
maintaining the prciect's landscape bugei.
D. Additonat trees were add;;v;;;d iuo-ue'wttat *ere shown on the D/d plans' The D/d planting plan shows the
lollowing:
1. Trees: 306
2. Shrubs: 298
3. Groundcovers: 0
4. Perennials: 0
The lollowing plant munts can be found on the consfuction documents:
1. Trees:- 360 (18% more lrees as compared P DldJ.
2. Snrubs: 343 (t5% more shrubs as compared lo Did)
3. Ground covers: 2,190 (100% more lhan D/d)
4. Perennials: 145 (100% more lhan D/d)
As can be seen , aclul plant ounts exceed D/d amounts in all cases'

Re: Landscape and Tree Removal/Relocation Plans, VillageStructure
It was brought to the Town,s attention by feggy Osterfoss and
Diana Donovan that there was a misunderstanding concerning the
number of trees approved to be removed from the Village ParkingStructure and approved landscape plan. f discussed the issue with
Diana, Peggy, and Stan as to what plan was the approved plan forthe landscaping for the project. I believe Stan and I agreed tothe following resolution of the issue:
1. The parking structure did receive final DRB approval for the
landscape plan. This set of plans is dated January 3L, 1990. Theplans are on file in the Community Development Department in slot
4L.
2. The approved DRB landscape plans dated January 31, l-990 shalLbe used for the landscaping for the parking structure project.
3. The trees to the south of the Transit Center (approx.lS to L6trees) shall not be removed as indicated on the permit plans.
These trees will be unt,ouched. The trees are circled on the
approved DRB landscape plan by Diana.
4. Existing trees on the west and east end of the parking
structure that are proposed to be removed per the perrnit plans
shall instead be relocated and stored safely over the summer sothat these trees rnay be replanted on the site when constructionallows. These trees are also marked with pencil by Diana on the
DRB plans and are the trees that need to be relocated on site.

manner. Remember construction is fun!

RE: Design Review Board approval ofStructure Plans.
changes to Village Farkinga
Dear Chris:
On June 20th, 1990 the Design Review Board reviewed changes tothe landscaping, Village Information Center, and rocl< work on the
main stair corridor for the proposed Village Parking structure.
The purpose of the revierr was to clarify changes between approved
Design Review Board plans and the approved building permit plans.
In reapect to the landscape j-ssue, the board approved these
changes as noted in the memos from Todd Johnson, Civitas, dated
lilay 23, 1990 and from Mark NayJ.or, civitas, dated May 18, 1990.
The Village Information Center window treatment as designed inthe approved building permit plans is not approved. The board
asked that ttre architect propose a new wLndow design which had aricher appearance and was not so conmercial looking. It ttas
agreed that the architect would subrnit a revised window designfor Design Review Board approval. This design could be reviewed
informaLly without the board revieving the new design at anofficial Design Review Board meeting.
The stone work on the base of the visitor center on level four
would be reguired as per the approved Design Review Plan. The
Design Review Board asked that the architect try to raise the
stone to the bottom of the windows on the infornation center.
Letter, Chris Thoraas
Page 2
The Board confirned their approval of the stone cap treatment on
the retaining walls along the nain stair corridor.
Thank you for attending the neeting and explaining the various
reasons for the reviEions. As soon as you fax the new window
design to me, I will make sure that the Design Review Eoard
reviews your design aE soon aa possible. Also, please remember
Design Review Board approval is still needed for signage and
1i9htin9. Thank you lgain for your patience and cooperation on
this natter.

Dear Mr. Cook:
Thank you for your conments about the circulation on VaiI Val1eyDrive. The Recreation Trails Plan as weLl as the VaiI Village
Master PIan caII for sidewalks along Vail Valley Drive. ?o
improve pedestrian access, the Town of Vail is proposing to build
sidewalks connecting the new Village Parking Structure to FordPark. This link will go past many of the projects you mentionedin your letter and should provide adeguate space for pedestrians
walking through this part of Town. The Town plans to have theproject designed in L990. The Town Council will be considering a
phased plan for construction of the sidewalk during ttreir budget
review process for 1991.
I appreciate your interest in this issue. I passed your letter
on to the Town Council as they tike to be aware of inprovements
requested by a concerned citizen. Please contact rne at 303-479-

Dear lt[s. Pritz:
Enclosed you will flnd a copy of my conments

I know the Town of Vail has Justifiable pride
in their Planning and Zoning Department. It is
highly responsible in nany areas, uhictt I think
has been helpful for the developnent of the
Town of Vail. Why the problen of Vail Valley
Drive has not recel.ved adeguate attention

Sincerely,
The town of Vail has been derelLct for many years inaiding and abetting the buildup of traffic, parking
and pedestrian congestion aLong Vail Valley Drive,especlally in the bottleneck area fron the-colden
Peak ski area to east of the soccer field area.
O\ter twenty years ago, the area between Golden peak
Ski School and Manor Vail was already severelycongested with cars, pedestrians, bicyclists,
Joggers, baby carriages, children, etc., and yet the
town has pernitted the construction of additionalbuildings close to Vait Valley Drlve wlthout naklngany provision for pedestrJ.ans or off-road parking
along this roadway.
The construction of the Northnoods Condominium
development across fron llanor Vail., the constructionof the Vail Ski CIub with nininal off-street parking
and then the Vail childrenrs ski school area for
young children were all authorized without nakingprovision for sidewalks and parklng in the area wbich
was already suffering from autonobile and pedestriancongestion. These developments had desirableobjectives but were authorized apparently without
adequate consideration of the planning factors whichthe Vail city governnent has usually nandated before
approving developers' projects. For reasonsdifficult to understand, the City of Vail for years
has consistently avoided taking responsible action to
rnininize traffic and parking problens that nere
aggravated wtren these additional developrnents
inmedlately adjacent to Vail Valley Drive were given
approval by Planning & Zoning and by the Mayor andCity Council.
I understand that there may now be a plan to build a
sidewalk through a portion of this congested area.
Any program to provide for adequate walkways and bikepaths along vail Valley Drive should be expedited inorder to nininize the deleterious effects of
increased congestion and potential danger to all
concerned along this najor trafficway.

MBA wlll fonrard draft of Divlslon I to Vall on March 7 for
their revleur. Comments are due back to MBA March 16.
Informatlon needed by MBA for supplementary lnstructions
to bidders was reviewed (see attacheo.
Vail requests that fiber mesh be used in concrete mk at
curbs, walks and sleps at all locations oft the transit deck,
and in the South Frontage Road curb and gutter.
Vail prefers a single 15' wide opening at the center of the
parapet wall separating transit deck from roof over radius
ramp. MBA will confirm structural capacity here.
15' openings at the south parapet wall of Level 4 are located
correctly only on landscape plan 13. MBA will revise
drawings with conected locations.
Drain at center of radius ramp needs manhole/cleanout at
the polnt where the right angle turn is made to go under the
building.
Vail requests that curb and gutter be added at the west and
nodh sldes of Blue Cow Chuts. This increase In scope will
be added to commun'rty improvement allernates.

There was discussion about maklng the parklng equipment
an ownor-prdrided ltem, taking it out of the construclion
contract €ntirely. This option was reiected.
Specification of parking equipment will be proprietary per
request of Mike Rose. MBA is concerned with the lack of
competitive pricing resulting lrom proprietary specifications.
The budget allows $220,000 for parking equlpment.

1-. The signage entry and lighting for the project will bepresented to the DesJ.gn Revj.ew Board at an upconingneeting as soon as possible.
The rnotion was nade by Pat Herrington and seconded by KathyWarren. The motion received approval 3-0.
The concerns with the parking structure entry included thefollowing:
L. The architecture had too much of a period 1ook.
The light fixtures on top of the columns were notappropriate. The height of the entry colunns should bescaled down. The tights would look rnore appropriate ifthey were placed on the col.unn wall as opposed to thetop of the colunn,
f
2. The public parking sign shall be changed to read Vailparking.
3. The hourglass stair on the east side of the main staircorridor shall be slightly adjusted so that the wallsparallel each other. (I think you understand what I

SUB.T: Design Review Board Meeting, Comments
The following comments were made at the neeting by board members:
I. STAIR CORRIDORS COMMENTS:
--Details on lights, bo1lards, specific plantings, rock waIls,
and treatnent for concrete rnust be provided
--The facade adjacent to the lower tunnel by the central stair
needs more design detail . It was suggested that a planter belocated in the pocket area on the east side of the entry. Use a
sand blasted treatment for the texture of the concrete. Look at
using rails to decrease the nass of the wall . Be sure to use the
sane rail- throughout the stair corridor. ItBoard formrr concrete
should not be used. Keep the natural color of the walls. Ifpossible the railing should have the clulan top.
--The east stair corridor at the ground leve1 needs rnore study.
The straight stairway is extrenely harsh. A snall curve will go
a long way to soften this area. (Kathy, this is the stair to theeast of the main stair corridor.
--Questions rrtere asked about how the stucco would be applied tothe building. Durability was the big concern.
--The width of the stairs could be decreased. The capacity
appears to be overdesigned. Offset the stairs as much aspossible. One member advocated a seven foot stair passage.
--The west stair should be oriented more to the west. The nunber
of people that will want to access crossroads should be
considered. The plaza at the base of the stair should be
expanded to allow for better access to Crossroads.
II. BUILDTNG COMMENTS:
--What is the cap for the stone walls.
--Look at the base of the Visitorrs Center. Stone with stucco
finish night be rnore appropriate than solid stone. Try to use
the stone $rhere it has the most inpact - stair corridors.
--Determine window and architectural detalling for the Visitor's
--The Transportation Center needs to be conpatible with theVisitorrs Center. It was suggested that the exterior fj.nish of
the transportation center be changed to coordinate with theVisitorts Center.
--The elevation of the parking structure entry along the Frontage
Road should be enlarged.
--A flat roof should be used on the connecting ramp from the
second and third floor levels of the parking structure. Peoplewill walk on this roof and it should be as safe as possible.
--what is tbe finish of the fifth floor parapet for the
structure.
--The board reguested colored elevations and also a photograph of
the transportation center.
The following information should be subnitted for the January
3J-st neeting:
1. A landscape plan identifying material t1pes, sizes, and
locations.2. Details on bollards, lighting, benches, planters, rock
walls.3. Sandblasted concrete or moss rock should be identified
on the plans.4. The base of the central stair and access tunnel should
be drawn at a larger sca1e. It shoul-d also be drawn incolor. The straight stair should be curved.5. Explain how the stucco will be applied for the project.6. ori-ent the west stair more towards Crossroad. Theplaza at the base of the stairs should be oriented to
tbe west.7. The Transportation Center should be updated to be more
conpatible with the Visitor's Center.8. Provide east and west elevations for the Visitorts
Center.9. Provide a blown-up elevation of the parking structureentry along the Frontage Road. The board was concerned
about the possible urban/industrial appearance of the
entrance.L0. Paver patterns should be defined. A photo of what you
are proposing (f believe this ls the existing pattern)is acceptable.L1. An elevation showing the connecting ramp and flat roof
should be provided.L2. Design detail for the fifth floor parapet.L3. A photo of the Transportation Center.1-4. Deternine the sidewalk and wall detail along Meadow

Drive.If possible, identify sigmage for the project. If thisis not feasible, the sigmage may be reviewed at a later
date.
A detail on how the noss rock will appear once it isplaced on the wall. The board nras concerned that a drystack method be used to avoid excessi.ve nortar.

Design Review Board Work Session on the VitlageParking Structure, December 20, l-989.
Below are comments on the Design Review Board conceptual reviewof the Village Parking Structure.
l-. KATHY WARREN - Concerned about keeping the stairintegrated into the hillside. The existing main stair is attsacred place't. The stair does not need to be nonumental .The concern to try and avoid people weaving through thestairway with skis j.s relevant. However, the stairs needto be rnore organic. She liked the east stairs. Majorconcerns with the access through the visitors center.Access needs to be more direct, think about where peopleare trying to go. Orient stairs to these locations.
2. NED GWATHMEY - The natural character of the main stairwaymust be enhanced. Much :nore landscaping needed in nainstair area. (This cornment was shared by everyone. )Sacrifice convenience and nake it nore of a walk. Identifythe visitors Center frorn the Frontage Road to allow forguest orientation. He stated the stair needs to be moredirect from transit center down to the next level . View ofVisitors Center inportant frorn Slifer square. He felt theparking plan seemed inefficient by the visitors Center.
3. KATHY WARREN - The guest parking area is poorty utilized -perhaps this area and inforrnation center should be studiedfurther. In general , the whole stair, plaza, and VisitorsCenter should be addressed in a comprehensive way.
Recommend pushing the inforrnatj_on center further to theeast to open up the central area for the stairway.
4. NED GWATHMEY: He did not object to the building location.
He felt more study was needed on circulation andlandscaping. The stairs need to be broken up so they arenot visible all at once. They should be revealed slowly.
The east stairs (as redone) are better.
5. JA$fE MCCLUSKfE - Stairs should be oriented to the CoveredBridge even if this is just at the top of the stair way.Increase the planters on the second level .
KATHY WARREN - The Skyliqht is an opportunity to do
sonething fun and artj-stic. ft shouldn,t just be a box.
Co}ored glass and sculpture, perhaps an Art in Public
Places project are ideas to make the skylight extraspecial.
JAMIE MCCLUSKIE - Transition between the rnountain
landscaping and urban landscaping needs to be looked at.
How do the two integrate? He recommended allowing some
space between the sidewalk along Meadow Drive and theretaining wall- for planting. He liked the concept of thedrainage and valley approach to the landscaping along the
south hillside of the parking structure. He suggested thatthe retaining walJ- on the top level (south side) of thestructure be screened. (However, don't rnake thelandscaping to linear). In the stair corridor he
recommended colorful deciduous trees such as crabapples for
col-or.
8. PAT HERRINGTON - Questioned why there was one exit.
9. NED GWATIII4EY - The Visitors Center should be a symbol .
Expression of the building out to the Frontage Road isimportant to make it identifiable. (perhaps through aplaza). The entry into the parking structure is veryinportant. This elevation should read as t'class andqualj-ty.'t Perhaps stone should be used in this area.
Exposed concrete should be avoj.ded, He also felt that snow
shedding in the open area under the east and west accessfor the Visitors Center should be changed.
10. CHARLfE WICK - Try to add in the bus loading areapedestrian protection or perhaps some way of rnaking it morefriendly with flags or banners.
l-L. NED GWATHMEY - The lighting should be subdued. Spotlighting as opposed to washing the entire structure inIight is preferable. Try to cover the top of the circular
ramp on the west end of the structure with a sod roof orlandscaping. He suggested materials such as native stone
and stucco for the Transportation Center and Visitorscenter. The materials should be compatible for bothbuildings.
L2. CHARLIE WfCK - He recomrnend usinq toterns instead of
bollards.
1-3. NED GWATHMEY - Suggested that the architects go visit
Beaver Creek and Lionshead to analyzing the stairs in these
proj ect.
14. ROY SANTE - Landings, plazas, and benches are inportant forresting points along the stairway.

This meeting was held as a work session to review the current status of the
design prior to the actual Design Review Board (DRB) approval at a meeting
schedule on 17 January 1990.
1. Chuck Adkisson reviewed the scope of the project emphasizing the
following main objectives:
a. To renovate the existing structure including repairs that will improve
waterprooiing and dimish leaks at joints and cracks and make some
specific structural repairs.
b. To add additional parking by expanding the structure.
c. To reconfigure the transit deck improving the structural capacity to
handle increased bus traffic.
d. To renovate the interior of the existing transit center and build a new
visitor center and 4000 SF of lease space on level 3.
e. To rebuild the central exterior stair eliminating plantings over
structure that have caused leaking or structural problems and to
increase the width for nearly doubled people capacity required due
to more busses and parking.

2. Todd Johnson explained the basic landscaping concepts of the proiect.
He described the design of the transit center landscaping as a miniature
of the Vail Valley itself.
3. The Board had the following comments to the current package:
a. West e)'rterior Stairs are greatly improved. Bequested that east stair
also includes a similar bend to avoid the .long continuous staif.
b. The center stair hasi an additional planter/divider at the bottom run.
Board encourages efforts to break up the appearance of long
continuous flights of stair.
Board's opinion was that the stair access direaly to west (transit
center) and east (parking deck) at the top flight was more imporrant
than through the center, visitor portal.
c. Comments on the visitor center:
- 'ldentity Building' idea very good, both from l-70 and from Easr
Meadow Drive.- Form of Building good.- Pass through to stairs may be a wind tunnel, consider enclosing
with glass doors on each end.- Expression of building should be extended to the frontage road
through landscaping or a small structure.- Problem exists with snow sliding off roof parallel to pedestrian
walk ways.- Consider making sky light opening to the third level into a .fun.
lorm.- Materials proposed tor smail buildings (including the visitor
center) are shake roofs, native and cut stone, exposed wood
beams and stucco, These materials are acceptable to the
Board.
d. Comments on landscaping:
- Concept of creating swales for planting zones is good.- Can a planting zone be added between the sidewalk and the
retaining wall at East Meadow Drive? Answer is yes, but
retaining wall will be higher and cost increases.- Consider uplighting trees at the center stair area- Step lights would be good, but are a maintenance problem. Use
pole lighrs insread.- Standard'Vail Village. pole lights should be used.- MBA/Civitas pointed out that the village tights looked somewhat
'small and out-of-scale. with this parking structure.

- Potted plants and street tumiture are positive elements to help
soften the hard surfaced 3rd and 4th level plazas.- Consider using the Vail totem poles'to help identiff entrances
or other important building elements.- Garage entrance/exit should receive some special signage,
landscaping and architectural treatment to avoid appearance of.black hole..- The combination of higher berming and plantings have
adequately screened the garage walk at the nonheast and
southeast corners of the addition.
These meeting minutes reflect our understanding of subjects discussed and
decisions reached. Please advise us of any corrections or additions.

1.1 Main Stairuay Plan From Sllfer Square to level four.
PEC comments:
Replacement of existing stair is a concern but current structural
deterioration of the garage caused by the existing landscape area is of
greater concern. Hot water snowmelt system in the new stair was
addressed but seen as too costly.
lce and salt was noted as a concern to the local vegetation around
these stairs.
Width of the stairs, tread size and railings distances were expressed as
a concern. lt was noted by the Board that the stair from Wall Street to
Eaton Plaza was an example ol planter railing incorporation. The staFf
expressed a need for visual breaks in the large stair area.
Type and size of paving should be discussed at the next presentation.
Direction:
Landscape will study the snow removal issue into the planters.
Stair tread width will be studied by MBA
Width of stairs may be broken both visually and physically, A planting
device will be studied (ar the tirst llight ol stairs up from Slifer Square).
Planter/stair railing distances were suggested to be 15'-0' between
planter and wall, whh a hand rail splitting that distance. This was to be
studied.
1.2 Level Four Transit Deck
PEC Comments:
There was concern over the clear height at level three under the transit
decks. The diaphragm structural system was explained to the Board and
clearance heights were discussed.
1.3 Southeast-Gold Peak Portal
PEC Comments:
Concern was expressed over the orientation of the exit stair toward the
east meadow drive crosswalk. This orientation was seen as needinq to
be emphasized stronger,
Vail Transportation Center
Meeting Minutes

Direction:
Study the relocation of the service core and stairs west with an additional
look at how to indicate a crossu/alk in the snovr/.
'.|.4 Southwest Stair
PEC Comment:
The inclusion of a crosswalk across the intersection was discussed, but
rejected. The natural pedastrian flow was seen as a random fan due to
the dispersed points of interest in that area. lt was also discussed that
the exits make better use of th€ new sidewalk.
Direction:
Study the connection between the edges of its garage exits and the new
sidewalk to make better use of that connection toward Slifer Square.
1.5 Southeast Corner Landscaping and Fetaining walls.
PEC Comments:
The height of the exposed wall had been a concern. lt was presented
to have been reduced to about 12 teet of exposed wall with landscape
elements in front of it.
1.6 North Elevation East of New Entry
PEC Comments:
The exposure of the level five werpass in the elevation was addressed
as a concern. lt was noted that the addition weight of higher beaming
would increase a lopsided loading challenge already existing in the
structure. The idea of heavy landscqping and decorative concrete was
expressed as being a solution.
Direction:
Explore the idea of decorative texturing exposed concrete o/er 12 high.

New Sidewalks on East Side of the Frontage Road and Ford Park
PEC Comments:
There was discussion on the safety and necessity of the new sidewalk.
It was concluded that the only part of the sidewalk that was to stay, was
the one fronting the Tyrolean lnn.
Direction:
Study an increase the presence of the exit on the northeast corner.
Signage to indicate exit to Blue Cow Chute.
Keep the sidewalk that acts as a connection to the frontage
road and the Tyrolean Inn.
Landscape Median Along Frontage Road
PEC Comments:
The landscape elements were not allowed by the budget. lt was agreed
that the new landscape along the north elevation of the WC was a
significant visual improvement to the Frontage Road.
Public Art in the Project.
PEC Comments:
Public Arts will arrange a meeting with MBA to discuss the implantation
and placement of art in WC in January.
Direction:
Arrange a meeting with Public Art Commiuee in January.
1.10 Upper Plaza Landscaping
Michael Barber discussed further study of plaza arca to be shown at
January 8 PEC meeting. This would include a redirection ot the
pedestrian tlow in a stronger north to south direction,
PEC Comments:
PEC would like a bit more input on types on paver and benches. There
is concern over the current condition and maintenance of these existing
elements. Removable planters seem to pose no problem in terms of
maintenance and winter storage, but a progrElm should be studied and
coordinated with maintenance at VTC.

1.11 Slifer Square Planter west side
PEC Comments:
Flemoval of the existing planter, there seems to be an unacceptable
solution to the bus traffic and road deterioration problem in the square.
It was presented to MBA that the development of Slifer square may be
included in the scope ol the proiect.
Direction: MBA will include an addendum to the scope of work to
include development of Silfer Square.
MBA will study the relationship of the planter and bus widths to
determine an acceptable solution to trafiic in the square.
2. Landscaping
PEC Comments:
The implementation of the landscape design on the south side of WC
might be weighted against the cost of the sidewalk alternate in the plan.
The development of the landscape plan was a little unclear as to what
trees were existing and to be saved.
3. Elements
PEC Comments:
In the plaza and stair area, a need was expressed to integrate all
newspapers and vending type machines into the landscape.
It was discussed that the exterior signage and information elements be
incorporated into the landscaping.
