He stated he had 60 complaints against the Telephone Company in April alone, where he was unable to call out of Vail quickly.

Postmaster To Replenish Postage Meter 99.00 TOTAL $51,442.19 TRAFFIC PLAN VAIL VILLAGE 1969-1970 GENERAL PLANNING Certain developments taking place during the summer of 1969 will enable the Town to operate with a core area more nearly total pedestrian in nature. The Post Office will be moved from the core area. A new bridge is being constructed in the northwest corner of Lot 5-B. Continental Trailways has been notified that they will be unable to use the core area for buses. It is felt that the entire area east of the west side of the Lodge and west of the Post Offices can be used as a pedestrian area in much the same manner as Bridge Street is today.. Although there will continue to be the same types of problems in this area that there are on Bridge Street today, the elimination of congestion and reduction of the traffic accident potential makes these traffic restrictions. An attempt will be made to restrict traffic by the use of signs supplemented by plyaical police presence during peak periods. In that we are rapidly approaching some of the origina.7. gonl.s in the corm lenity devel01smc47t, an attempt to eliminate many of the traffic signs, particularly "NO PARKING" signs., should be made this year. We are planning to remove most of the "NO PART 011 • signs from the village, Signs will be erected at each entrance to Town and specific key locations notifying motorist that no on - street parking will be permitted except in areas signed to permit - on -street parking. This reverse usage of signs will allow us to have fewer and more attractive signs. It is very possible that enforcement of parking regulations under this system could be attacked from a legal standpoint, and we are running the risk of having some guests in the village cited when they did not fully understand the parking • restrictions. • Those,signs, such as "SPEED LIMIT" signs., used to restrict hazardous traffic violations, should remain. Along with this program, we have included a minimum amount of street signs naming the streets in town. SPECIFIC SIGNS INVOLVED A short run -doom of the specific signs to be used and their lo- cations is included in this section of the report. At each entrance to town, a large, readily visible sign will be installed reading "NO ON -STREET PARKING IN VAIL EXCEPT ICERE PER141TTED BY SIGN". • At the following locations] signs will be installed stating "ON& STREET PARKING PER11ITTED BEYOND THIS POINT - SUFFICIENT STREET ACCESS MUST BE MAINTAINED TO ALLOW PASSAGE OF FIRE EQUIPMENT": Beaver Dam Road; Forest Road; Vail Valley Drive by the Golf Course east of Manor Vail.; the area between the south side of the new tennis courts and the intersection of Gore Creek Drive and Mill Creek Drive. On the reverse side of each of these signs] a notice will read "NO ON -STREET PARKING BEYOND THIS POINT11. In addition, signs reading "NO ON -STREET PARKING" will be in- stalled on East Meadow Drive; West Meadow Drive; Gore Creek Drive; Hanson Ranch Road and in the Willow Road area. In the Mill Creek Circle area, a sign will be installed reading, "NO ON -STREET PARKING 8:00 A.M. TO 4-co P.M. - AFTER 4:00 P.m. SUFFICIENT ACCESS j-1UST BE ALLOWED FOR FIRE EQUIPMENT". A map is attached as Appendix No. 1 pointing out the location of these signs.. Attached as Appendix No. 2 is a list of the minimum number of street name signs needed. COSTS The costs of having these signs umdo in Vail Aseoc:ates Sign Shop • is estimated to be between �p800 and $1000. 146 are sure that cosies could be out by having metal stenciled signs made, however, it is felt] that there is an offsetting advantage gained by having all the signs in town relatively uniform. No estimate is available at this time as to the labor cost iuvol!ved in installing; these C� signs, however, these costs could be absorbed by use of existing Town employees. No cost estimate has been made for the poles to use in mounting these signs. Metal poles can be used. These would be the cheapest and would save labor costs. 4 X 4 poles would be more attractive,, more expensive, require more installation time, and need to be replaced more frequently. The decision as to how much money should be spent over and above • the actual cost of the signs should be made either by the Board or administratively from the Town Office. SilNNii ARY The costs of this program are high and the total enforcement potential is a problem, however, the aesthetic value to be gained is great. If the traffic signing program is not successful, the Town can revert to its current signs program. 11 ,!RL V � L LA GE VAIL, COLORADO M sky. cop coor K:3 U--wO — or-, CID ApPendix i,? I Ov " 1.

TO: THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE 'TOWN OF VAIL THE VAIL WATER AND SANITATION DISTRICT THE VAIL PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: F. BLAKE LYNCH RE: ECDC ANNEXATION At our last meeting, Doug Hoyt mentioned the possibility of agreeing to some sort of staged. annexation procedure, whereby we would gradually annex the 232 acre tract in parcels after initial development had taken place. This might be guaranteed through deed restrictions. In this fashion, the tract would become part of the Town of Vail, but the Town would not have initial development controls. There are a number of side issues on this matter relating to water rights and water rates, etc. However, at this point I think we have before us for a decision the very basic question of whether we take a firm stand on our existing policy, or whether it makes more sense to settle for less Initial control with eventual annexation. This matter should. be decided Monday evening, June 23 at a joint meeting. Please plan to attend. June 18, 1969 i i
