Blake Lynch Secretary -Treasurer MINUTES OF THE MEETING LIQUOR LICENSING AUTHORITY - THE TOWN OF VAIL HELD AUGUST 26, 1968 The Board. of Trustees of the Town of Vail convened as the Liquor Licensing Authority at the Vail Valley Medical Center, 7:30 p. in. Mayor John Dobson called the Meeting to Order and the following Members were present: ROLL CALL: John A. Dobson C. E. Kindel Richard Bailey Thomas I. Steinberg John Dobson Absent: Joseph Langmaid Peter Seibert The Liquor Licensing Authority received the application of the Lancelot .Corporation for a hotel restaurant liquor license and an application from the Gourmet Wine Shop for a change of location. The date of October 7 was set for the Hearing to be held in the Lodge Cafeteria beginning at 7:30 p. m. It was seconded by Ted Kindel and approved unanimously by the Board. A discussion was held concerning the fee to be charged for a change of location. The Board determined the fee should remain at $300.00 since the procedure was the same as an application for a new license. With no further business to come before the Licensing :authority, the Meeting was adjourned at 7:45 p. rn. The Members of the Board of Trustees of the Town of Vail convened at 8:00 p. m. 1. Consideration of the Minutes of Previous Meeting A discussion was held and Trustee Kindel suggested that a letter outlining the limitations and restrictions for Mr. McBride be sent to the Attorney who registered a Protest of a License issued to Mr. John McBride for the use of the right-of-way of Bridge Street in Vail. A Motion was made by Trustee Steinberg to accept the Minutes as recorded. It was seconded by Trustee Kindel and approved unanimously by the Board. 2. Consideration of Additional Office Space Mr. Blake Lynch gave a brief statement concerning the additional office space to be used by the Police Department. He explained that the space now used by the Department was too crowded and there would be less traffic in the Office. Chief of Police Floyd Holmes noted that if the additional facilities were available, it would make the Police Department functions easier. After discussion, Mayor Dobson directed the Town Manager to contact Keith .Brown for a reduction in the cost of the space, and asked Ted Holmes for a plan of the improvements contemplated as well as the estimated cost of the project. The matter was tabled until the next Meeting. GAGE TWO 3. Consideration of Refuse Disposal Site Mr. Blake Lynch reported that the County Commissioners had notified him that the County will operate a site at Wolcott which will be ready for use September I, 1968. In addition, Mr. Nottingham had approached the Town concerning the rental of his land for a site. The cost would be $300.00 per month and the Town would have to erect the fence. Mr. Nottingham would handle the fill. A discussion was held and the matter was tabled for the next Meeting so that additional information would be available, such as the raise in the cost of service by Leo Duran using the Wolcott site. 4. Consideration of an Ordinance Providing for the Registration of Employees, at the Request of Employers, Providing for the Forwarding of Information to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Providing Penalties for Violation hereof. Police Chief Hoomes informed the Board that the Police Department has received a number of requests by employers to get into the registration of employees so that the FBI will process the fingerprints. The cost would be IS$2.00 per registration. After discussion, Trustee Kindel made a Motion that the Ordinance be approved. It was seconded by Trustee Steinberg. The Board Members were polled for understanding and approval. Ordinance No. 13, Series of 1968, was approved unanimously and adopted. 5. Matters from the Mayor and Trustee Trustee Steinberg brought to the attention of the Board that the mine at Climax had diverted the tailings from the mine into a tributary of the Eagle River and was polluting the waters. After discussion, the Board felt that some letters of protest should be written to the Climax Mine and the Department of Game and Fish. Mayor Dobson requested Blake Lynch to get the documents and the information from the Pollution Act and contact the Colorado Pollution Control Board, Eagle County Commissioners and the Colorado State Game and Fish Department. The question arose from the Floor concerning the status of the Helicopter Air Line Service and the availability of a taxi service. Mr. Lynch indicated that Mr. Burland was considering the feasibility of the taxi service and was to have submitted a proposal at the Meeting, but since he was not present, there was no information available concerning either transportation facility. Mayor John Dobson informed the Board that the Zoning Board held its most recent meeting last week and it would appear that we will be able to have a Public Hearing in the month of November. Also at the next Meeting, the Board expects to have a statement from Vail Associates concerning the general plans for winter parking. 6. Citizen Participation Mrs. Steinberg asked the Board if it was possible to have a sign indicating 'No Through Way' on Vail Valley Drive, because so many visitors are not •aware that they cannot return to the Highway via this street. The Board approved the installation of such a sign. jo •WAGE THREE Mr. Hans Weibel asked if the T wn would be responsible for taking the stray •dogs to a Pound. After discussion, Mayor Dobson noted that the Vail Dog Pound was under consideration and would be completed in conjunction with the expansion of the Sewer Plant as soon as possible. The Pound must conform with the Humane Society standards. With no further business to come before the Board, Trustee Kindel made a Motion to adjourn at 9:16 p.m. It was seconded by Trustee Donovan and approved unanimously. 0 • 40 y A,xgust, 1968 VOUCHERS PAID VCUCHER NO.

M. In the new location for the Vail Police Department in the Mill Creels Court Building: ROLL CALL: Roll Call found the following Members present: Robert Parker Donald Almond Rodney Slifer F. Brofos Peter Seibert Richard Bailey C. E. Kindel John Dobson ze Joseph Langmaid Cesare Moretti Josef Staufer Lorene Burdick John Donovan Absent: Albert G. White, Dr. T. I. Steinberg Also present: Ben Krueger, Blake Lynch, Chief F. H. ;Holmes. MINUTES OF THE MEETING !969_ Suppiemental__Budget Reauests The Mayor explained that this was a joint meeting of the Trustees and District Boards to allocate the anticipated funds available beyond the basic budget requirements of each of the jurisdictions. _ • There is $201000 available to allocate and more than $40, 000 in supplementary requests. The Mayor stated that each of the supplementary items should be discussed. 1. VRA Summer Promotional -Solicitation (Exhibit 1) - $10, 000 Mr. Staufer, President of the VRA, reviewed a letter written by him to Blake Lynch asking the Town of Vail for a contribution of $10, 000 to a new Advertising Program which has already been developed in order to make it possible for Vail to become a strong year-round resort. Mr. Staufer is hoping to get $50, 000;$40, 000 from the local businesses and $10, 000 frGin the Town. So far, there has been a total pledge amount of $28, 000. Mr. Staufer felt a joint effort in support of this program would help bring more guests to Vail and in turn, generate more funds for the Town. 2. Police Department (Exhibit 11) - V9, 809 Police Chief F. H. Holmes reviewed the $9, 809.00 supplementary request for the Vail Police Department. He stated thi , would basically give the Town 24-hour a day coverage as $9, 319 of this amount is the a_?+,ici�')ated cost for an additional man. The hours between 2:00 a. w- and 8:00 a, m_. would then be covered. The emphasis during these i rze; \i ould be o... sh.-,:�s f-r burglary protection as well as for those persons -uor'= rg late t,,•)urs. PAGE Two 3. Fire Department (Exhibit III) - $2, 065 Fire Chief Steve Ruder reported the Vail Volunteer Fire Department with a Class #6 rating, is the best volunteer department in the State of Colorado. In order to keep this rating, he felt it necessary that water, men and tools be kept in good supply. There are now four firemen living in the Fire House; there will be six; He felt $30. 00 a month for the live-in Fire Captail was reasonable since this man spends extra time on fire matters. Chief Ruder also explained the radio and deluge gun rack requests. 4. Golf Course (Exhibit 1V) - $11,250 Mr. Ben Krueger reviewed the Recreation budget request. It was pointed out that the play is too slow, especially for the better golfers who are delayed by the poor players. It was felt a ranger to patrol the holes especially during peak play times would help alleviate this problem. Trustee Kindel felt this essential to increase the play on the course. Ben Krueger reviewed the other Recreation District supplementary requests totaling • $11, 000. 5. Steel Wheel Roller (Used) - $3, 000 It was agreed this is not a high -priority item. The roller would be used for street repairs to roll the asphalt, etc. , and would be an advantage to own it outright rather than renting one. 6. Public Toilets Mayor Dobson raised the question as to whether or not the Town should do some of the financing and what could be expected as help from Vail Associates and the businesses in Town? Trustee Kindel asked what exactly was required and Mr. Lynch stated the location, etc. , had not been worked out yet, although some discussion and. thought has been given to expanding the Lodge at Vail Cafeteria facilities. Director Parker felt the Trustees should. study this matter further so that cost, location and the possibility of working public toilets in with structured parking might be considered further. Citizen Nancy Kindel brought to the Board's attention the fact that the public toilet facilities in the Recreation Building require attention. The Mayor asked Ben Krueger to see to this matter. It was finally agreed further study will be necessary before any decision can be made on the subject. 7. Ice Skating It will cost approximately $1, 000 for the vinyl plastic and Fbout another 250 for the labor but Blake Lynch stated he felt it passible to sit the Ice Rink up within a price range of $750 to $1, 000. Director Langr::cid questioned. the expense for maintenance. Mayor Dobson asked how important . it was to Lave a skating rink. Nancy Kindel felt it very important. Trustee Kindel supported this statement by adding many people will not consider visiting a winter area unless this facility can be provided. Tames Sle,,rin stated at least 407o of the guests visiting Golden Peak House inquire about a rink. It was generally felt, however, that if an ice skating ri. ;k is provided, it should be done in the best possible manner. The subjec` wa;� :,,ed for further discussions. It PAGE THREE . 8. Land.sc4ing This was discussed in a general fashion; although no specific proposals were mentioned. J. Street Improvements Blake Lynch mentioned some of the needs in this area: widening some street areas such as around the Texas Town Houses and around Bob Parker's house; hand rails and footbridges and paving Beaver Dam Circle. Mr. Clark asked when the black topping project would be completed especially in front of the Christiania. Mr. Lynch assured him that street would be finished soon. The question was also raised as to street cuts done by the cable TV crew. Mr. Lynch stated any cuts or digging would be put back in order at the expense of the TV company. Trustee Kindel stated he felt the Town should put Cable TV on notice that they must take care of the edge of the road where they dig it up. Mayor Dobson asked Blake Lynch to check on this. 10. Town Vehicle Blake Lynch stated he hoped to soon have a full-time public works director. In this case, it would be especially necessary to have a town vehicle available. $500.00 in car allowance could be cut from the Town budget if a vehicle were acquired. 11. Entrance Sign Bob Parker stated now that the Interstate Highway is near completion, a first-class entrance sign is needed for Vail. The requirements Interstate has set up include one major sign leading up to the exit, and another at the interchange. In addition to this, there will be the Standard Interchange sign. Mayor Dobson asked that Josef Staufer and Bob Parker work on this project with the VRA and sign experts as to the sign's content, size, design and location. Mr. Parker felt a petition should be signed in order to eliminate the Holiday Inn neon sign; in this way, it was felt the other signs of similar nature would come down. 12. Structured Parking Deficit Discussion on this subject was waived until a further date. 13. Public Transportation Deficit Blake Lynch discussed this, stating a higher contingency is necessary for items of this nature. 14. Town Clean-up Fund This was generally discussed earlier in the meeting under. " 3.and- scaping". $1, 000 to $1, 500 is needed for this project. Two main types of pick-up cleaning is necessary - one big clean-up in May, and the other during the busy winter season, when someone will have to be avaiia:cle at least twice a week. General Discussion Basically it must be decided whether the Town can commit $1.0, 000 in suprnr, t of the VRI A Advertising Program or whether priority should. be 1 111 11 -1- II 0 0 • • PAGE FOUR established on other things first? There are still many areas where further study is necessary before a decision can be made. It was noted during the meeting there is a new taxi service head - quartering at the Vail Village Inn known as "Little Percent Taxi". One jeep and one taxi are now in operation; five vehicles are planned for use in the near future. With no further business to come before the Board, a Motion was duly made, seconded and unanimously passed that the Meeting be adjourned at 10,100 P.
