Dominic Mauriello, Chief of Planning, stated the applicant was before Town Council two weeks ago. The final changes that were recommended by the Design Review Board (DRB) and the Planning and Environmental Commission (PEC) were addressed. The applicant is proposing to amend Special Development District (SDD) #4, as it relates to the Glen Lyon Office Building property, Area D. The applicant is proposing to construct a 37,088 sq. ft. (gross) office building addition to the east of the existing building, a 3,270 sq. ft. modification to the existing building by adding hallways and an elevator, and two EHU's (1,127 sq. ft. and 738 sq. ft.). The resulting total leaseable area of the building is 35,741sq. ft. which requires a total of 143 parking spaces. The new building is proposed to be constructed above two levels of a parking structure containing 127 parking spaces. The east end of the site will also contain a surface parking (with a level of parking below) of 24 parking spaces, for a total of 151 parking spaces. The proposal also includes aligning the entrance of the parking lot with that of the Vail Professional Building directly across the street and re -striping of the traffic lanes on the S. Frontage Road to accommodate turn lanes and bike lanes. The conditions on page 19 of the ordinance were revised to reflect the changes that were made to the plans. The applicant is requesting that conditions 7, 8, 11 and 12 be deleted from the ordinance since these items were corrected. Council member Bob Armour asked Dominic if removing conditions 7,8 & 11 was necessary at this time. Mayor Rob Ford asked if these conditions are left in, was it a moot point. Council member Bob Armour stated it doesn't hurt to leave them in or to take them out. Kurt Segerberg, the applicant's representative, said some of the design issues need to go back through DRB. The additional changes will be reviewed with the DRB. He reviewed the elevation plans, site plans, parking, discussed the tree situation to the east of the east parking area, entry point areas into the development, and landscaping on north side of building with the Town Council. If they save the trees to the east they will lose eight parking spaces. He said the two EHU's will stay in the same location. They have provided a storage area in the lower parking area to accommodate storage for the EHU's and each unit will have one parking space. Kurt stated security issues have been a concern in this building in the past but said the EHU's on -site will help with this concern. Council member Bob Armour asked what was the square footage of the EHU's. Dominic said they will be approximately 738 square feet and 1,100 square feet. Council member Mike Arnett made a motion to approve Ordinance No. 14, Series of 1999 on first reading with the condition that the parking spaces be reduced to the required number to save the trees. Council member Bob Armour seconded the motion. Further discussion ensued Council member Bob Armour stated he wants this building developed. He has seen this iproperty come before the Town Council previously and wants to see it built.

As a part of the community facilities planning process, staff and the organizing committee have been developing strategies for obtaining private financing for community facilities.
