Mayor Rose read the full titles of all items. After a short discussion, Mery Lapin
• made a motion to approve the consent agenda as presented. Tom Steinberg seconded
the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously 6-0.
Third on the agenda was Ordinance No. 20, Series of 1990, first reading, an
ordinance amending Ordinance No. 10, Series of 1990, Special Development District
No. 4, Section 18.46.100 C, Density Floor Area, Area C Glen Lyon duplex lots to
provide for gross residential floor area to be calculated per the requirement of the
primary/secondary zone district Section 18.13.080 Density Control; and setting forth
details in regard thereto. (Applicant: 75% of Glen Lyon subdivision property
owners) The full title was read by Mayor Rose. Shelly Mello explained the
amendment and exactly what the changes would do. She reviewed the SOD criteria and
development standards used in evaluating the request, noting the Planning and
Environmental Commission approved the request by a vote of 4-1, with Diana Donovan
opposing. Shelly and Kristan Pritz then answered questions of Council. Andy Norris
gave some background information to help clear up some misunderstanding of reasons
for the changes. Tom Steinberg then made a motion to approve the ordinance on first
reading, which Peggy Osterfoss seconded. A vote was taken and the motion passed
unanimously 6-0.
Next was Ordinance No. 23, Series of 1990, first reading, an ordinance amending
Section 18.26.040 of the Municipal Code of the Town of Vail to include as a
. conditional use "Television Stations" in the Commercial Core II zone district and
setting forth the details in regard thereto. (Applicant: Vail/Beaver Creek
Television Network) Mayor Rose read the full title. Mike Mollica gave background
information and reviewed the zoning criteria used in evaluating the request to add
"TV stations" as a first floor level, conditional use in the Commercial Core II zone
district. Mike noted staff recommended denial because the request was not
consistent with the review criteria and was inappropriate for first floor level
space. He reviewed the Planning and Environmental Commission's vote of 4-2 for
denial, with Chuck Christ and Dalton Williams opposing. Mike also referred to the
staff memo dated July 3, 1990 showing PEC members' comments. Sill Perkins,
representing the Vail/Beaver Creek Television Network, gave reasons why he felt the
request for conditional use should be approved. After much more discussion, Mery
Lapin made a motion to approve the ordinance on first reading. Seconding the motion
was Peggy Osterfoss. Lynn Fritzlen suggested two additional items be included in
the criteria for conditional use: 1) a studio or production room be visible from
the street, and 2) only cable casting with no broadcast antennas being permitted.
Mery amended his motion to include the additional criteria. A vote was taken and
the motion passed unanimously 6-0.
Fifth on the agenda was Ordinance No. 25, Series of 1990, first reading, an
ordinance amending Special Development District No. 23, the Vail National Bank
. Building, and setting forth the details in regard thereto. (Applicant: Vail
National Bank Building Corp.) Mayor Rose read the full title of the ordinance.
Mike Mollica mentioned the Vail National Bank had been before Council a few months
earlier to request an amendment to SDD No. 23. The request now was almost identical
in that it included the enclosure of two third floor decks. Mike gave brief
background information, noting the problems with the prior request, and how the
request has changed. He then detailed the SDD criteria used in the evaluation,
adding staff recommended approval of the request, with two conditions:
1. The Town of Vail will not issue a temporary certificate of occupancy to the
Vail National Bank (for the enclosure of the two balconies), until such time as the
Medical Center receives a temporary certificate of occupancy for the parking
structure.
2. If for some unforeseen reason the Medical Center's parking structure is not
completed, the newly constructed deck enclosure shall only be allowed to be used for
common storage. The owner shall be required to submit a written agreement
addressing this condition on the use of the space for the Town Attorney's review,
and this shall be recorded on the land records at the Eagle County Clerk and
Recorder's Office.
Mike reported the Planning and Environmental Commission voted 6-0 for a
recommendation of approval. At this time, Rob Levine made a motion to approve the
ordinance on first reading, with the conditions as recommended in the staff memo
dated June 25, 1990. Mery Lapin seconded the motion. After some discussion, Tom
-2-
Steinberg explained why he would have to vote against the request. Jay Peterson,
representing the applicant, responded to Tom's concerns.
There was discussion by Council to add language in the "Whereas" section to indicate
this was a special circumstance to solve intricate parking problems. Rob amended
his motion to include the added language, and Mery amended his second. A vote was
ID taken and the motion passed 4-2, with Tom Steinberg and Lynn Fritzlen opposing.
Sixth on the agenda was Ordinance No. 26, Series of 1990, an emergency ordinance for
the purpose of allowing parking as a temporary permitted use in an area south of the
Vista Bahn terminal from Vail Road to Chair 12, and setting forth details in regard
thereto. The full title of the ordinance was read by Mayor Rose. Ron Phillips
commented the ordinance was written to alleviate the temporary parking problem, and
was discussed with Vail Associates (owner of the property), the Forest Service, and
surrounding business owners - all approved. Ron then reviewed drawings of the
property where the proposed parking would take place. He added the Planning and
Environmental Commission, at the Council Work Session today, was informed of the
plan, and there were no objections voiced. There was some discussion that it would
be a good idea to notify the property owners around Mill Creek Circle by letter of
the plan. A motion to approve the ordinance as an emergency ordinance was made by
Tom Steinberg and seconded by Peggy Osterfoss. A vote was taken and the motion
passed unanimously 6-0.
There being no further business, this meeting was adjourned at 9:40 p.m.
