The first item on the agenda was Citizen Participation.
There was none.
Council then agreed to review the PEC minutes of December 14 as they had just
become available. Chief of Planning Warren Campbell explained the meeting of
the 14th was the first time the PEC has seen the Timber Ridge application.
"There was some concern over the bulk and mass of the structure." Rogers
asked if the PEC has seen the Timber Ridge predevelopment agreement. "I
think it is important for them to have that." Campbell noted, "The purpose of
yesterday's work session was a real work session but we have not received a
completed application... Comments and input can be used as they attempt to
finalize their application... There will be a final hearing in mid -February." Daly
said he thought it was important for the Council, PEC and applicant to have a
joint session. Foley said he would also like to have a discussion regarding
transportation. Rogers said she was not in favor of hiring Jeff Winston (3D
visualization and interactive model developer) to work on the Timber Ridge
project. She said that after serving six years on the DRB she did not find his
work particularly helpful.
The second item on the agenda was the Town Manager's Report.

Police Chief Dwight Henninger reported Town of Vail peace officers are
authorized by the Town of Vail and the terms of C.R.S. §16-3-110(1)(a) to act
when a felony or misdemeanor is committed in a Municipal Officer's presence
regardless of whether the Municipal Officer is within the town's boundaries or
whether that Municipal Officer is on duty. The Eagle County Sheriffs duty is to
preserve the peace within Eagle County, including the unincorporated areas of
the county, some of which unincorporated areas are adjacent to town
boundaries. The intermixing of municipal and county jurisdictions may cause
potential confusion as to the actual jurisdiction of each entity's peace officers.
The county and town desire that the Municipal Officers perform law enforcement
functions and enforce the state's law within those portions of unincorporated
Eagle County as necessary in the interest of public safety. It was necessary to
have Council's approval of this Resolution No. 28, Series of 2009 to enter into an
IGA. Daly emphasized fulfilling the town's legal responsibility as well as a moral
obligation. Council confirmed the resolution would not add additional liability to
the town. Henninger explained that any follow up after initial response is
considered an investigation. Rogers said she did not feel she had adequate time
to review the agreement. Daly moved to approve the resolution with Tjossem
seconding. The motion passed 6-1, with Rogers opposed.
Zemler announced he recently participated in the Vail Police Department's "shop
with a cop" evening. Council thanked the Police Department for their efforts.
It was then determined that Luke Hartman would be appointed to the longer term
of the two PEC vacancies. Newbury moved to appoint Hartman to the longer
vacancy with Donovan seconding. The motion passed unanimously, 7-0.
The eighth item on the agenda was Adjournment.
Newbury moved to adjourn with Foley seconding at approximately 7:05 p.m. The
motion passed unanimously, 7-0.
