Joanna Kerwin, a resident of Edwards,expressed concern about the process of repealing the engineering and building code amendment. She did not believe the amendments were sent out for review to any of the metro districts in unincorporated Eagle County. It should have been sent out for review, specifically section 8.4, regarding traffic studies. She believed that the metro district would have input. Her request as a citizen is that the word"current"be defined. There had been a lot of talk about housing needs in the community, and she saw on the county website that Eagle County needed 6,000 units. In the last week,there had been over 2,200 built in the county since 2019, and there were 1,700 units under construction right now, 2,900 approved units,and 3,600 planned units. The Eagle County website for the West End shows that public comment was still open on the West End variance for improvement standards. Lastly, it would be great if the website could be updated to show what time the hearing is on September 9th. Chairman Scherr noted that the county was involved in a regional housing needs assessment, so there should be some updates in the future. Chairman Scherr closed constituent input. Commissioner Updates Commissioner McQueeney reminded folks that school had started and to be careful for students on their bikes to and from school. She encouraged folk to allow for extra travel time. Commissioner Chandler said she would attend the Bureau of Land Management Resource Advisory Council meeting two days in Grand Junction. If anyone has some BLM issues, suggestions,or ideas,please let her know. Chairman Scherr stated that the Vail Edwards Rotary Club was holding a community potluck dinner tonight in Riverwalk. He also mentioned that the Vail Rotary Duck Race was coming up, and ducks were still for sale. County Manager Updates Jeff Shroll had no updates. 1 08/20/2024 Consent Agenda 1.

The BoCC is part of the EHS governance structure, so this presentation will provide the information needed to keep them well informed. Kendra Kleinschmidt, Deputy Director of Child,Family&Adult Services,presented a request for approval of the annual grant submission and budget revision for the current year. This year's annual grant submission started a new 5-year grant cycle.

She presented a PowerPoint that provided information to ensure the BoCC was informed about the program status. She reviewed the program budget for 2024,which totaled$1,497,924. One of the good things about starting a new 5-year grant cycle was that it allowed them to update the program goals for 2025-2030. Those goals included optimizing the program data utilization, aligning with the Eagle County Goal on Equity, and cultivating comprehensive family well-being by nurturing family confidence and abilities to access community resources and services.

Tabling Request-Arcadian on Beaver Creek- SMA-009408-2023 Vince Hooper,Community Development Executive Summary: Platting of Tract C and Tract S, as identified in the Beaver Creek PUD Guide, into 3 lots. Vince Hooper,Eagle County staff planner, stated that the Community Development Department had requested that the Arcadian on Beaver Creek hearing and site visit be continued to a date certain, October 8th, so that a couple of issues could be resolved. He believed that the applicant was able to accommodate that date as well. Matt Peterson,Assistant Eagle County Attorney, explained that Section 5-210 F5 D of the County Land Use Regulations allowed the board to continue a hearing at the request of any person, including county staff. In order to continue or table a file,the board must find good cause to do so. Mr. Hooper stated that there were some questions about the road designation and the applicable standards. Staff felt it was appropriate to look at a different standard,which led them to concerns about the application and the need for a variance from improvements standards(VIS) for the application. Dominic Mauriello,representing the applicant, stated that his client was okay with the tabling and had submitted the VIS application. Bruce Kiely, President of the Beaver Creek Property Owners Association(BCPOA), stated that they had submitted comments with regards to the Arcadian proposal. He believed that a delay was a good idea to ensure that the staff and the applicant had time to work on the appropriate setbacks for Wayne Creek,the creek that ran through the property. Mr. Peterson noted that because this date was being requested by county staff and was more than 40 days from today's date,the applicant was required to submit written confirmation that they were in agreement with the date by email or tabling form. Commissioner McQueeney moved to approve the tabling request for Arcadian on Beaver Creek File No. SMA 009408-2023,to a date certain of October 8,2024. Commissioner Chandler-Henry seconded the motion.
