Mayor John A. Dobson and the following Trustees were present: John Donovan C.E. Ted Kindel Joseph Langmaid Josef Staufer Gerry White Also present were: Terrell Minger, Town Manager Lawrence Robinson, Town Attorney • 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. L • • 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. lh AA Town erk Page 2
