I. MUNICIPAL BUILDING SITE. Mayor Dobson noted that the
Planning Commission feels the site adjacent to the chapel
is more desirable for a municipal complex than the site
proposed by Vail Associates. It was noted that the chapel
parking area could serve a two -fold purpose --accommodating
the needs of a municipal complex as well as its own. Chief
Bush commented that the currently proposed site (across
from Holiday Inn) is preferable for the fire function.
Trustee/Director Kindel mentioned the concept of con-
structing a municipal building over structured parking in
the main parking lot currently under lease to the Town for
49 years. There is currently no clause in the lease re-
garding structured parking. The site west of the clinic
was also discussed, as it would bring the proposed library
in next to the school. Trustee/Director Langmaid said that
the noise factor in the clinic area might not be desirable.
It was the general consensus of the Boards that the Holiday
Inn site was undesirable for pedestrian access reasons.
Blake will ask the Planning Commission to discuss the merits
of the Holiday Inn site vs. a Frontage Road site on the
east end of LionsHead, based on the non -availability of the
site near the chapel. At this point Mr. Clay Simon of Vail
Associates joined the Boards and stated that Vail Asso-
ciates plans to construct employee housing in the area
west of the clinic. He did, however, concede that it was
a far better site than the one across from the Holiday Inn
from a pedestrian access point of view. Upon Trustee/
Director Kindel's suggestion that VAI employee housing be
constructed over the main parking lot, a brief discussion
ensued on the parking lot. It was noted that the lease
contained the restriction that structured parking would
have to be nogotiated between VAI and the Town, and that
no permanent improvements would be made to the lot without
prior approval by VAI. This lease will be signed on
January 12.
II. REFUSE COLLECTION. Blake Lynch reviewed the Town's
participation in the trash removal problem. Our dump
trucks worked every day during the previous week; trash
collected was burned at the sewer plant site to reduce
the load to be hauled to Wolcott Sanitary Fill. More
than 40 loads were reduced to three loads via this pro-
cess. Terry Minger reviewed his report on this subject
dated January S. He stressed the direct control the
Town could exercise over a Town -operated system when there
are complaints --of which there have been many of late.
He noted that there might be a problem in obtaining equip-
ment, as Denver has just recently started enforcing their
burning ordinance, and additional trash businesses are
springing up to accommodate the additional demand for same.
He remarked that it would be costly and time-consuming to
invite competitive bidders from Denver to consider the
task. When asked.how long it would take the Town to set up
such a business, he replied two weeks. Vail Associates'
Maintenance Garage could handle the storage of two com-
pactor trucks, in the event that the Town purchases it.
Blake and Terry will proceed on the proposed establishment
of a municipal trash system, offering Leo Duran, the pre-
sent PUC licensee, an involvement on whatever level he
prefers. Father Stone will be apprised of the situation.
• It was stressed that we have every intention of including
Mr. Duran in such an operation if he so desires.

III. Vail Associates/Ninth Filin Vail Associates plans
to file the Ninth Filing with the ,ounty Clerk tomorrow;
this concerns the land just west of Sandstone 70. This
filing has not been approved by the Planning Commission.
The land will be sold by VAI to its supervisory employees.
If they attempt to sell such property within three years
from purchase date, VAI has an option to buy it back at
current appraised value at time of sale. If there is a
higher bid by a prospective buyer during the three-year
period, VAI will have to meet it to obtain the property.
It is anticipated that five or six homes will be con-
structed commencing this spring.
With no further business to be discussed, the meeting
adjourned at 12:00 noon.
