RESOLUTION No. 28, Series of 1976, naming or renaming certain streets
and public ways within the Town of Vail, was introduced. Kent Rose
explained that over the years there has been some confusion, duplication,
and, in some cases, lack, regarding the names of certain streets within
the Town, and he listed the proposed names of certain streets as outlined
in the resolution. Councilman Donovan moved to approve the resolution;
Councilman Wilto seconded the motion; all present voted in favor; and
the motion carried.
With regard to the 208 Study report, Jim Lamont introduced Terrell Knight
of the Eagle County Planning Commission. Mr. Knight explained that the
purpose of the 208 Study is to work out a waste water treatment plan for
the County and to reach certain standards by 1995. He stated that the
Study allows long-range planning for counties, and he added that Vail had
grown 60% between 1960 and 1970 and 95% between 1970 and 1975. He stated
that the 208 assumptions suggest limiting growth in the area to 122% and
using water availability and treatment facilities as growth control vehicles.
. The Council took a five-minute break in order to set up audio-visual
equipment needed for the ensuing growth management presentation. After
the equipment was set up, Jim Lamont then introduced Bill Lamont, of
Briscoe, Maphis, Murray and Lamont of Boulder, consultants to the Town's
Growth Management Study. Mr. Lamont explained the purpose of the Growth
Management Study - to assess where the Town is now, how it got that way,
what the valley's limits are, and what to do about growth if anything.
He stated that the process involves analyzing existing data, mapping the
valley's existing growth, studying growth management tools, evaluating
external impacts, and establishing a comprehensive plan. He stated that
the Study so far is indicating that the Valley does have limits to the
population it can support.
With regard to the Open Space/Capital Improvements budget statement,
the Town Manager explained the Charter requirement that two weeks prior
to the Budget hearing the Town Manager must submit to the Council a
statement regarding the Town's proposed long-range physical expansion.
Section 9.4 of the Charter of the Town of Vail. Mr. Minger then read the
statement, and Bill Pyka listed the proposed figures. Councilman Wilto
moved to accept the Town Manager's statement; Councilwoman Klug seconded
the motion; all present voted in favor; and the motion carried.
