• Jonathan Levine, expressed his concerns about AT&T's cell service problems and impacts
on his business. He noted the consistent problems with service and that his customers
were having issues. He credited Ron Braden for his assistance in researching, identifying
and solving some of the issues. He asked that the local government be aware of these
issues and that they insist these issues get resolved.
■ Michael Cacioppo addressed his concern about the town council not commenting or
responding to the community during citizen participation. He also expressed his
dissatisfaction with service from AT&T and asked that the local government engage the
vendor to provide better service. This lack of response from AT&T has a negative impact to
the local customers and businesses.

5. Presentations / Discussion
5.1. Ford Park 2018 Summer Ford Park Parking Calendar
Presenter(s): Greg Hall, director of Public Works and Transportation
Action Requested of Council: Request input and approval on the 2018 Ford Park Summer
Parking Calendar as prepared by staff and the Ford Park Users Group.
Background: Each Spring the summer activities and events calendar is reviewed b the Ford
Park User Groups, including representatives from Town of Vail. Vail Recreation District, Vail
Valley Foundation, (Gerald R Ford Amphitheater), Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, Bravo! Vail and
Walking Mountains Science Center (as operators of Vail Nature Center). The group's proposed
2018 managed and paid parking program is attached. Similar transit service will be provided.
New this year will be the ability to provide parking vouchers for users of facilities not associated
with the special event on a space available basis for a period of 2 hours. This will require those
users to obtain validation from the appropriate venue (such as tennis center, BFAG education
center classes, etc.)
Greg Hall presented the topic with some highlights as follows:
■ TOV will offer a voucher program to those users in the park who visit VRD and BFAG.
■ TOV will offer 2 free days of parking with the lacrosse tournament because those days do
not have evening functions
■ The AEG concert series, if booked, would likely convert to paid or managed parking
■ TOV would keep the entry fee at $10for events
■ TOV would continue to run free bus service frequently to Ford Park
Foley moved to approve the Ford Park 2018 summer calendar; Moffet seconded the motion and
it passed (7-0).
