• The first item on the agenda was the proposed. annexation to the Town.of the
Booth Creek subdivision. Representatives of Vail Associates were invited to
present their plans and make comments. Mr. Nott noted that currently the
area contains only the stables and the Katzos ranch house. As it is not the
intent to establish the zoning at this meeting, he suggested that there be one
more review by the Planning Commission of the subdivision maps and zoning
and then that this action be scheduled for the meeting of July 18. He empha-
sized that they are not conditioning annexation on the acceptance of a certain
zoning plan. The reaps of the area were displayed and explained. Trustee
Langmaid recalled there had been a question whether the Town should accept
the dedication of high lands for which there was no use. Mr. Nott noted that
this question did not come within the subject of this meeting, but rather in the
discussions of the zoning. As there were no other questions, Trustee White
moved they adopt ORDINANCE NO. 11 (Series of 1972), AN ORDINANCE
ANNEXING TO THE TOWN OF VAIL CERTAIN TERRITORY SITUATED IN
THE SOUTHEAST QUARTER OF THE SOUTHEAST QUARTER OF SECTION 4,
THE SOUTH HALF OF SECTION 3 AND THE NORTH HALF OF THE SOUTH-
WEST QUARTER OF SECTION 2, TOWNSHIP 5.SOUTH, RANGE So WEST OF
THE 6TH PRINCIPAL MERIDIAN, EAGLE COUNTY, STATE OF COLORADO;
DETERMINING THE ELIGIBILITY OF SAID TERRITORY FOR ANNEXATION TO
THE TOWN OF VAIL AND COMPLIANCE WITH THE MUNICIPAL ANNEXATION
ACT OF 1968; AND SETTING FORTH DETAILS IN RELATION THERETO.
Trustee Staufer seconded the motion. Trustee Kindel abstained from voting on
the motion. Trustees Donovan, Langmaid, Staufer, and White voted in favor;
there were no votes against; the ordinance was adopted, effective 30 days following
publication. Mr. Nott requested the maps be recorded and linen also be executed.
Mr. Robinson agreed.
Next presented was a resolution making July 2 through 9 the Tenth Mountain
Division Week in the Town of Vail. Trustee Donovan moved the resolution be
approved; Trustee White seconded; approval was unanimous.
A memorandum had been submitted by Mr. Louis M. Parker requesting a clarifi-
cation of the zoning ordinance. Mr. Robinson noted that under a public accommo-
dations zone, professional, service, and business offices and studios are allowed.
Mr. Parker's request is for a printing office. Mayor Dobson inquired if such a
use were acceptable to the, owners of the Mountain Haus, the building in question.
Mr. Parker responded that as far as he knew this was the case. Trustee White
stated that it seemed a logical interpretation of business office to extend it to
printing. Trustee Donovan moved that the Board take the position that the Use
proposed by Mr. Parker in this particular case is acceptable under the zoning
ordinance. Approval was unanimous.

Mr. Jim Bowers and Mr. Tom Obermeyer, planners representing Mr. Brady
and Mr. Clancy who now own the Pulis property, were in attendance to report
to the Board. Mr. Obermeyer displayed the drawings that had been done.
Trustee Donovan noted that a small jutting piece of land which had been men-
tioned in connection with a land trade was not shown on the maps; however,
it was shown on some of the maps. Mr. Bowers stated that they were having
a great deal of difficulty with avalanche prediction on the site. They were also
concerned with the potential flooding from Gore Creek. Mr. Bowers mentioned
that they understood that much of the wooded area on the site was to be dedicated
to the Town.
Mr. Bowers explained the proposed access plans. The major road on the site
will run east and west. He suggested that it was a good idea to direct the
traffic to the frontage road, across the golf course, rather than through the
residential subdivision to the west. This could be aided by closing one road to
through traffic and making the other one-way. These actions. would affect the
golf course operations. Also, the road along the golf course would need to be
coordinated with their development. A third question was whether the golf
course clubhouse operation, if expanded, should be coordinated with the develop-
ment. Their group was desirous of a meeting with the Board of Directors of
the Recreation District. This meeting could be scheduled for Wednesday, the
28th at 2:30 p.m. Mr. Bowers added that they were also interested in discussing
the possible landscaping of the present utility scars. Trustee Kindel suggested
it would be helpful to have shown on the maps the, location of the present east -
west road as well as the proposed road.. Mr. Minger, contributed that the present
road is on Recreation District property. In response to a question, Mr. Bowers
noted that they had not considered the question of a land trade, but he was sure
they would be amenable to such a transaction.. They will be presenting the Board
with more specific and expanded plans in late July or early August.
As there was no further business, Trustee White moved the meeting be adjourned;
Trustee Langmaid seconded; the motion was unanimously approved and the meeting
adjourned at 8.30 p.m.
