. The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation. Kathy Douglas was the first individual
to speak to Council. She is a resident on West Meadow Drive and requested the addition and or
replacement of stop signs, speed signs and no outlet signs along the road.
The second speaker was Mike Cervantes, who is an employee at Garton's Saloon. He said he was
reaffirming a question presented to the Council about a month ago by Jo Chapman requesting
a later night bus leaving from the parking structure to West Vail to depart later than the 2:10 a.m.
current time frame. He is requesting the final service to West Vail leave no earlier than 2:30 or
2:45. This would accommodate both late night employees as well as guests. Bob McLaurin
indicated that this was an increased level of service and was still being investigated by the Town
staff.
The third speaker under Citizen Participation was Emily Kloser, representing the following
neighborhood: Garmish, Arosa, Cortina & Davos, requesting a bus shelter be built at the corner
of Arosa and Chamonix Lane to accommodate increased bus service for this good size
neighborhood. A petition also was presented at this time. The Mayor accepted the petition and
the Town Manager indicated staff would do a review on this request as well.
The second item on the agenda was the Town Manager's report.
Prior to adjournment, Bob Armour and the rest of the Council thanked Paul Johnston for his 11
years of service, noting he would be truly missed. The Mayor and Council wished Paul and his
wife Sally the best in the future.
Sybill Navas asked why we were tearing up the pavement in the Old Town Shop's parking lot.
Bob McLaurin stated he would look into this.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at approximately 7:45 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Robert E. Ford, Mayo
