Commissioner Stone asked for the Assessor presentation.
John Harrison presented a petition for abatement for Patricia Miller Gage, schedule number
R051270. The Assessor recommended approval. An inspection of the subject property which is located
in the Berry Creek Ranch Subdivision was performed in response to an appeal submitted by the owner in
May 2002. Errors in the inventory of the property were corrected resulting in a lower value. The 2002
tax year should be abated pursuant to V.R.S. 39-10-114. The original assessed value was $94,530, with
a tax amount of$5,730.98. The abated amount was $22,710 with a tax amount of$1,76.82, leaving a
balance of$71,820 with a tax amount of$4,354.16.
Jon Harrison presented a petition for abatement for Seven Castles Properties, Inc., schedule
number R028072. For 2000, the Assessor recommended approval. In response to the property owner's
abatement request, a complete inspection of the property was done. The property is comprised of eleven
rental units in one building, three individual rental units and five mobile home rental spaces. The
property has been used as residential rental property since the current owner purchased it in February
1999. After the inspection corrections were made to the square footage and inventory of the
improvements, the classification of the property was changed from commercial to residential. The value
of the property did not change significantly, however the assessment rate changed from 29% to 9.74% as
residential. The original assessed value was $456,680.00 with a tax amount of$26,992.98, with an
abatement of$301,780.00 with a tax amount 0[$17,837.30, leaving a balance of$154,900.00 and a tax
22
12-10-2002

For 2001, the Assessor recommended approval. In response to the property owner's abatement
request a complete inspection of the property was done. The property is comprised of eleven rental units
in one building, three individual rental units and five mobile home rental spaces. The property has been
used as residential rental property since the current owner purchased it in February 1999. After the
inspection corrections were made to the square footage and inventory of the improvements, the
classification of the property was changed from commercial to residential. The value of the property did
not change significantly, however the assessment rate changed from 29% commercial to 9.15%

Chairman Pro-tern Menconi seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote
was declared unanimous.
John Harrison presented a petition for abatement for Donne F. Fisher, schedule numbers
R040879 and R040880. The Assessor recommended denial of both schedules. For schedule R040879,
the subject property is a single family residence located within the Cordillera Ranch PUD. The building
consists of good quality construction and has good views to the East. Comparable sales from the
statutory time frame indicate the Assessor's value is fair and equitable. The comparable sales have
similar square footage, construction quality and are located within 2.5 miles ofthe subject. The original
assessed value is $131,640 with a tax amount of$9,854.84.
For schedule R040880, the subject property is a vacant residential lot located within the
Cordillera Ranch PUD. It has a desirable building envelope with good views to the East. The lot was
purchased on March 27, 2001 for $315,000.00. The Assessor's value for the 2001 tax year is $489,800.
Sales occurring after June 30, 2000 have not be analyzed for comparable market values due to statutory
guidelines, however, it appears there is a downward trend in sales prices for vacant and improved
properties. Comparable sales from the statutory time frame indicate the Assessor's value is fair and
equitable. The comparable sales have similar views and topography and are located within ~ mile of the
subject. The original assessed value is $142,040 with a tax amount of$10,633.40.
John Harris presented a petition for abatement for Katherine Paul Gwathmey, schedule number
R018657. The Assessor recommended denial. The subject property is a vacant 40 acre lot located
within the Horse Mountain Ranch Subdivision. The owners have addressed issues concerning
agricultural classification, access, and lack of water on the property as a reason for an adjustment to the
2001 value. There is no significant evidence to justify any agricultural classification at this time.
Representatives from the Assessor's Office were able to access the property and take photos in April of
2002. Therefore, no adjustments for access are warranted. The owners have submitted a receipt dated
May 4, 2000 for a water well, which produced a dry well at the cost of $6,352.00. No properties with
this characteristic have sold in Eagle County to display any market adjustment, therefore no adjustment
for lack of water should be given. The property is valued at $149,080 which is well below market value
due to the application of vacant land discount. The property was purchased by the petitioner on June 30,
1999 for $244,500.00 Pursuant to C.R.S. 39-10-114, the taxes have not been levied erroneously or
illegally and this abatement should be denied. The original assessed value is $43,230 with a tax amount
of$1,639.76.
Commissioner Stone moved to deny schedule number R040879 and R040880, Donne F. Fisher,
and R018657, Katherine Paul Gwathmey, as recommended by the Assessor.

Cranberry Isles Seafood Company
Earlene Roach presented an application for transfer of ownership of a hotel and restaurant license
for IDR West LLC, d/b/a Cranberry Isles Seafood Company. She stated the application is in order and
all fees have been paid. All applicants are reported to be of good moral character. The previous owner
was Wildhorse Bistro and the establishment is located in Edwards at the Inn at Riverwalk.
Daniel Lief, president of IDR West LLC, stated the restaurant is owned by himself, his wife and
the chef. They have moved here from Maine and have owned restaurants in Maine previously. Their
restaurant in Maine is located on an island where they do not have a police force. He stated
consequently he and his wife have become very sensitive to the responsibilities of owning a restaurant
and serving alcohol.
Commissioner Stone asked if Mr. Liefhas a copy ofthe Colorado Liquor Code.
24
12-10-2002
Mr. Lief stated he does.
Commissioner Stone asked if it will be located on the premises.
Mr. Lief stated it will.
Commissioner Stone reminded Mr. Lief that the Board takes the ownership of a liquor license
very seriously and enforces the regulations.
Commissioner Stone moved to approve a transfer of ownership of a hotel and restaurant license
for IDR West LLC, d/b/a Cranberry Isles Seafood Company.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote
was declared unanimous.
Shop & Hop #3
South Forty Liquors
Earlene Roach stated the next matter were Show Cause Hearings for Terrance S. Marcum, d/b/a
Shop & Hop #3 and Edwards Discount Liquors, Inc., d/b/a South Forty Liquors. These are based on a
sting operation held on September 5, 2002, in which both establishments sold alcohol to a minor. These
applicants have stipulated to the violation. At this hearing we will focus on the penalty phase. This is
the second violation for Shop & Hop #3, the first being in 1998, and a first violation for South Forty
Liquors. If the Board will recall there were six establishments that sold to a minor. Four of those have
had a previous hearing. Weare all concerned with liquor violations. Staff and the applicants met to
discuss the problems and to come up with solutions on how they can be prevented. The violations are
occurring when the owners are not present. In the past we tried something a bit different with a couple
of establishments that seems to have worked well. Those two establishments were Sato Sushi and Gore
Range Brewery. They were also cited for service to a minor. The minutes from those meetings are
included in the Board's packets. The Board also has copies of alcohol management plans for each
establishment. The plans include items such as incentives, zero tolerance programs, sting operations
performed by the owners and termination of staff. Staff believes the applicants have worked hard to try
and eliminate this problem.
Staff is recommending the Board find there was a violation, suspend the licenses for a certain
number of days and then hold all ofthose days in abeyance for a period of one year. I believe this
program has worked with other establishments and have no reason to believe it would not work here as
well. In the past we have suspended establishments for four (4) days for a first offense, eight (8) days for
a second offense and six months for the third. These applicants will continue to work hard and with staff
to prevent these violations. If a violation occurs within the next year, this suspension plus the penalty for
a second violation will both come into play.
Ms. Roach explained her recommendation in this situation to be the same as with the other four
establishments. She stated she has prepared motions reflecting the decisions of the Board at the prior
hearing.
Larry Esqwith, president of Edwards Discount Liquors stated they are extremely sorry and are
devastated that an employee oftheirs sold liquor to a minor. He spoke to his previous ownership of
another liquor store and related they did not have that problem at that establishment. He spoke to the
employee who actually made the sale and stated he had been an outstanding employee. On the night of
the sting the employee contacted Mr. Esqwith immediately. He spoke to the measures they have taken
and the zero tolerance policy they now have in place. They card every individual each time. He stated
they have lost customers because of this but after doing this, he has come to the conclusion that they
have to make carding automatic. Leaving it to employee's discretion leaves room for failure. He stated
South Forty is primarily a beer store. The cooler has to be filled constantly and physically it is a difficult
job. Young people seem to handle the physical demand, but on the other hand, they tend not to be as
careful. When you are twenty-four or twenty-five, people your age seem to appear as such. He stated
25
12-10-2002
they have a program that is plugged into the machine giving the age of the person buying. He stated he
questions the carding policy and asks about the problems. They have signs posted at the cash registers
and on the doors and they intend on going forward with the program. He stated he doesn't know why
the young man sold the liquor as he has in the past taken efforts to not serve minors. He has been
terminated, which was difficult. He apologized to the Commissioners and stated he will continue to
make every effort for this not to happen again.
Commissioner Stone thanked Mr. Esqwith for coming in. He asked if Mr. Esqwith finds the fine
to be fair.
Mr. Esqwith stated he thinks so, but he doesn't know what is fair in this type of situation. He
stated he believes that on premise establishments all over the valley over serve constantly. They don't
have that problem though they do have the visibly intoxicated in their stores. He stated they screwed up
and that is all he can say.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi thanked Mr. Esqwith for his comments and for the pro-active actions
they have put into place.
Commissioner Stone moved the Board find there was a violation ofC.R.S. 12-47-901 (a) for
Edwards Discount Liquors, Inc. d/b/a South Forty Liquors and suspend the license for a period often
days. Nine ofthose days will be held in abeyance for a period of one year. The applicant will serve one
day which may not be on a Sunday or Christmas, however the applicant can choose the day within the
next 60 days.
Commissioner Pro-tem Menconi seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the
vote was declared unanimous.
Terrance Marcum, Shop & Hop #3, was present for the hearing as was his manager, Mark
Haynes. He stated that this is unfortunately not the first time they have been here. The other sale to a
minor was in 1998. He spoke to the credibility of Mr. Haynes and his previous manager. He stated they
too have taken a zero tolerance level and are carding everyone who makes a purchase. He stated they
have instituted every possible action including training, TIPS training and termination. He stated he
knows there will be future sting operations. They have placed stickers on all the beer cooler doors
stating Id's will be checked.
Mark Haynes stated he is really kind of a hard guy. He stated it is not so much 3.2 beer. He
stated Kelly was an excellent employee who had been with them for a long time. He lost his ski pass
and lost his job. He stated there is zero tolerance. He stated they have policies in place and he wishes he
could say that it won't happen again. He hopes that it doesn't. He stated he is embarrassed and takes
this personally. Kelly called him that night and termination was the result. All the employees have
suffered but they know they will be fired immediately if it happens again. He apologized to the Board.
He stated Mr. Marcum is a good man and a good owner. He stated everyone has learned a lesson and he
hopes that it doesn't happen again.
Mr. Marcum stated it all boils down to the discretion issue so they have to make it black and
white. He stated they lost a good employee and hopefully the new person will work out. He stated they
will try harder.
Commissioner Stone thanked them both for coming in. He asked if there have been any other
sting operations in the last four years.
Ms. Roach stated there have been two.
Commissioner Stone asked if they have passed another sting operation.
Ms. Roach stated she does not know if they were subj ect of another sting operation or not.
Commissioner Stone stated he is asking because if they did in fact pass another sting operation it
would change his feelings about the motion he intends on making. He asked if Mr. Marcum thinks the
penalty is fair.
Mr. Marcum stated he believes it is fair.
26
12-10-2002
Mr. Haynes stated that Kelly got fired after working with them for 2.5 years. He stated they do
run a tight ship. Kelly received a fine of approximately $130.00. He suggested that perhaps a
mandatory fine might be helpful in the ingraining of the employee. He stated he has kids and so does
Mr. Marcum. He suggested the individuals may need a little more incentive. He stated he has thought
about this every day.
Brian Treu stated the fine for the individual is the fine imposed through the Courts. He stated
they have a signed stipulation that isn't notarized. He asked if Mr. Marcum would state for the record
that he did in fact sign the stipulation.
Mr. Marcum stated he did.
Commissioner Stone moved the Board find there was a violation ofC.R.S. 12-47-901 (a) for
Terrance S. Marcum, d/b/a Shop & Hop #3 and suspend the license for a period often days. Eight of
those days will be held in abeyance for a period of one year. The applicant will serve two days which
shall be on Sunday, however the applicant can choose the two Sunday's within the next 60 days.
Commissioner Pro-tem Menconi seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the
vote was declared unanimous.

Road Impact Fee Meeting
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi, stated the next matter before the Board was a meeting on the
County Road Impact Fee.
He asked those in attendance to introduce themselves.
John Goodman, Law Firm of Goodman & Wallace, Rick Mueller, president ofRomonov &
Company, George Roussos, Assistant County Administrator, member of the Road Impact Fee
Committee and the Impact Road Fee Administrator, Helen Migchelbrink, County Engineer and member
of the Road Impact Fee Committee and Keith Montag, Director of Community Development, were
present for the hearing.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi stated he was contacted by Mr. Mueller's partner this morning
expressing to those present that he is a personal friend of Bob Hernreich but believes he can listen and
speak objectively.
Diane Mauriello, County Attorney, stated she wants to make it clear for the record that they are
waiving any objection to Chairman Pro-tern Menconi participating in this hearing.
John Goodman asked if Commissioner Gallagher would be present.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi stated he will not be present at this hearing but will not be needed
for any decision. He asked the applicant to state the issues of the appeal.
Mr. Goodman stated these are unique circumstances today. This applicant has appeared before
the Board previously. The applicant/appellant is quite appreciative of these opportunities. The appeal is
a technical one and they are not saying they are being kept from the development. The real purpose of
the appeal is because this development and the developer have been before them before. This is more
than semantics. What is occurring here is they are vacating a lot line but the lots will be maintained by
27
12-10-2002
the same owner. He stated some staff members have determined an impact to be assessed. He suggested
the impacts have already been assessed and their position is that the impacts placed on the Edwards
Corner parcel, have already been captured. He stated it has always been contemplated that a commercial
development will occur on this parcel. He noted the purpose of the impact fees is to contemplate future
impacts. He spoke to the Duncan study which states it is not to be used for sins of the past. He spoke to
wish list projects along Highway 6 & 24 which were historically overburdened. He stated they believe
this is to remedy problems that existed at the time of their application. He spoke to the pectoral
iterations of this parcel. He referred to the maps. He stated ~ of the lot consists of parcel C-1, found in
the South Forty Subdivision, Filing 1. He is referring to the final plat for South Forty Subdivision,
Filing #1 recorded on February 1, 1977. He stated Yz of the lot is combined into Parcel 12, is lot C-1,
which was originally contemplated for commercial purposes. He spoke to a second map of Downtown
Edwards.
Commissioner Stone asked if the impact fees were captured then.
Mr. Goodman stated he does not believe that the Eagle County Land Use Regulations were in
effect at that time.
Commissioner Stone asked if the fees were captured.
Mr. Goodman stated probably not. He further stated ifthere is a burden at the time and the
County did not have the regulations in place at the time, it is not appropriate to do so now. He spoke to
final plat for Edwards Village recorded October 29, 1981, that addresses the residential portions. The
developer, Romonov and Company have paid for a number of items that they have asked for credits in
the amount of$1,800,000.00 which have been denied. Many of these were related to improvements on
the residential side. Referring to the same plat, they see Edwards Village Commercial and the common
lot line on the east side shared with lot C-1. This includes parcel 12 where the Edwards Corner project
is. They are not changing the use for that. Since Romonov has owned the property there have been
different configurations. He spoke to the recorded document of October, 1985 and there are lot lines that
create parcel 10, parcel 11, tract T and the Romonov Commercial Park. The Amended Final Plat was
recorded. At the same time, Amended Final Plat, Romonov was recorded in February 1996. What
happened when this was recorded there was a lot line vacation and at that time there was no attempt to
assess any impacts. What they are left with is parcel 12 and that can be seen in the proposed amended
final plat for Romonov Center. He stated all they are looking to do is vacate the lot line of the remaining
portion of parcel 12 and C-40. He stated the properties have always been contemplated as commercial
properties. If the impacts were not applied or they were overlooked they feel that is not the
responsibility of this developer. The original application had a hearing date of April 3, 2002. This
assumes that the application was made prior to that date. The Special Use Permit submitted by Knight
Planning changed the South Forty portion from commercial limited to commercial general. All that was
occurring to have consistency. That occurred because this had never been dealt with before. He noted
the parcels are contiguous, owned by the same owner, and always contemplated for commercial
purposes. He stated they are not doing anything different than they have done before. They are not
subdividing. This is just the vacation of a lot line. Why should there be no fee imposed? He spoke to
the County Attorney's memo that in no case shall the Road Impact Fee Committee be able to negotiate
the amount ofthe proposed fees or waive the fee. He stated they have tried to come up with a workable
solution and they are not asking that the fee be waived. They also have the ability to do a variance or
exempt the fee. The reason no fee should be imposed is as follows:
#1 This is not a subdivision under the definitions. He spoke to page 2-38 ofthe Eagle County
Land Use Regulations.
#2 These terms do not apply to a combination oftwo contiguous parcels. #8 on 2-39 and 2-110.
#3 This is not a new development. It already contributed to costs of roads and capital
improvements in this area. Section 4-710, B (2). As set forth in his appeal and the Duncan Study of
December 1999, it suggests the impacts cannot be applied to fix an overburdened road or infrastructure
28
12-10-2002
that exists at the time of application.
#4 This application is exempt under 4-710- E. The vacating of the lot line has not been shown to
cause an increase in traffic.
#5 This application is exempt under CRS 29-20-104.5 (6) because the application for Special
Use Permit was submitted in April 2002 and the Land Use Regulations regarding adoption of the Road
Impact Fees were not heard until May 2002.
#6 Support can be found for exemption under 5-270 of the Land Use Regulations, Section 1 (c)
as to pre-existing lots. This refers to Lot C-1 in Parcel 3. Further support can be found in the Land Use
Regulations at 5-280-2 I under Consolidation. Even if an impact fee is assessed proper credits were not
applied. Even if this Board were to determine that an impact fee is appropriate, they believe a variance
is warranted due to the unique circumstances from liberal enforcement of the Code due to the hardship
on Romonov. He asked if they should go back for clarification on the seven points
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked if Ms. Mauriello or staff can review these.
Ms. Mauriello stated she has taken notes and knows the Clerk has taken minutes of the meeting.
Mr. Roussos stated from his perspective the Land Use Regulations are clear cut. The Road
Impact Fee Committee met on two separate instances and felt that what is proposed does constitute new
development which triggered road impact fees, not curing the ills of the past but with the expansion of
future development. He stated credits were granted for revenues received routinely from the State and
other sources and credits for development that was approved in the past. In their minds this did
constitute new development. The impact fee calculation is rather a cookbook approach and they came
up with a figure of $200,448. Then they received a request for credits. They looked at the whole list and
every project listed was also on the capital improvements project list which they previously gave credits
for. In their estimation they did not have the flexibility to waive impact fees which was the unanimous
decision ofthe Road Impact Fee Committee.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked that Staff respond to some of the points made.
Helen Migchelbrink stated in response to Mr. Goodman's claim this is not new development
because there was contemplated development on the South Forty Parcel C-1 and contemplated
commercial development on the Romonov Parcel. She related if those develop separately she would
agree. It was their choice to develop the two together, abandon the lot line and create a much larger
facility that went on the two lots. By interpreting the Land Use Regulations and by looking at what they
had done, they determined it was new development.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked how they distinguish the abandonment of the lot line and what
has been approved is much larger development than what could have taken place on the one lot.
Ms. Migchelbrink stated he added on a lot that was not in the original development. She spoke
to parcels 10 and 11 which were both in the original development.
Mr. Roussos stated the Road Impact Fees were actually adopted in May of 2001.
Keith Montag spoke to the definition of new development and what has transpired over the last
year that a re-zoning has occurred on a portion of the property as well as a Special Use Permit on the
entirety of the property and that also constitutes new development.
Ms. Mauriello stated one of the definitions they have seen sited is a reference in Article 2 of
definitions, which means any of the following activities that require some form of development permit,
pursuant to the Land Use Regulations, the subdivision or parcel ofland into two, two or more lots or
division, or the construction, conversion, expansion or structural alteration or relocation or enlargement
of any buildings or structures, etc. That is one definition for the Board's consideration. Also in the Land
Use Regulations, there are also references to CRS 29-20-101, those sections relate to impact fees and the
County's ability to adopt impact fees. In section CRS 29-20-103, development permit is defined as any
preliminary or final approval of an application for re-zoning, PUD, conditional or special use permit,
subdivision development or site plan or similar application for new construction. She stated they should
have that information as well.
29
12-10-2002
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked to review those sections.
Ms. Migchelbrink stated what they are here today to discuss is, are they exempt completely from
the Road Impact Fee, because in fact it is not new development. Ifthey find they are a new
development, they must find then whether or not the Road Impact Committee erred in assessing credits.
She stated they did not go into the exact list. She suggested they may have to review the particular
credits that were asked for. She stated all of those, except for the one given credit, were not identified on
the list of Capital Improvement Projects, thereby not making them relevant or eligible for credit.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked for public comment. There was none.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked for the applicant's response.
Rick Mueller, Romonov, stated when they came in to abandon the lot line, he and community
development were baffled. It was not their choice to do that but did so at the direction ofMr. Clarkson.
He spoke to the abandonment of the lot line. He stated the two lots had a combined total square footage
of roughly 63,000 square feet. They changed the zoning to commercial general which made it 67,000
square feet. They lowered it by 20% to 50,000 square feet. The anticipated use has been reduced by
20%. Take that with regards to the road impact fee in E(2)D, which states any development of a lot
receiving final plat approval prior to the effective date of these regulations, shall be exempt from
payment of a road impact fee unless a re-plat occurs or results in an increase in traffic. From their
standpoint they have taken the impacts and reduced them by 20%. He stated they have asked for some
other additional items including a bike path on Highway 6. He suggested the fact the only reason the
bike path is there is to access the bus stop and he sees that as a road impact. Another issue, they sent a
check for $36,400 in September of 1996 and asked that it be applied to the intersection and be credited.
This was signed by Mr. Roussos but he now understands that Mr. Roussos sees this differently. He
stated there is only one intersection in Edwards which is the main intersection. They contemplated the
entire time this would be applied towards the intersection. They felt that it applied as a credit towards
this. He stated the final point is when meeting with staff they were asked by Phil Scott to move their
access point as far up as they could. When they went for special use permit, Ms. Migchelbrink asked
they move it 100 feet away from the intersection. That cost for the new road, the sidewalks, the paving,
the walls, was $300,000 that they have absorbed for traffic safety. That is a practical application and
they are trying to make the safety situation better.
Mr. Goodman stated the focus on this being a larger use of the parcel than originally
contemplated, is actually less than that which is allowed. They do not apply a combination of two
contiguous parcels. Further, there is an exemption found in section 4-710 for any development of lot
receiving final plat approval prior to the effective date of the regulations. Parcel 12 did receive final plat
approval in 1996 which was prior to the adoption of the impact fees. He asked they draw their attention
to the exemption found in 5-270, which he previously mentioned. That is on page 5-57 of the Eagle
County Land Use Regulations for consolidation that results in consolidation of contiguous parcels into
one larger parcel.
Ms. Mauriello asked about 5-280 as the section.
Mr. Goodman stated 5-280 on page 5-57. He stated they have 5-270 and 5-280 as the
consolidation. He referred to what was in his written appeals which is when they talked about the
original opportunities to capture any impacts, the SIA recorded at Book 395, Page 988, recorded
September 1984. It was specifically required by the subdivider to agree at its sole cost and expense to
furnish all equipment and furniture necessary to perform and complete all road and associated public
improvements and primary access to the Edwards Village Subdivision with U.S. Highway 6. He stated
he believes they have concrete evidence that money was captured from this subdivision. They should
contemplate that both the parcels were commercial, yes they are earlier subdivisions, but they are only
vacating the common lot line. Because the special use permit relates to that portion of C-1 that lies in
South Forty, access the impact fee to that lot only. He suggested they may have captured it on the Parcel
12 section, and they have seen various actions with respect to that property. Maybe that is a way to
30
12-10-2002
utilize a percentage to capture an impact here. Those sentiments are reflected by Sid Fox in his capacity
of Planning Division Manager, stated in a letter that the commercial site was originally platted with the
residential parcel to the left as Edwards Village. Again, at the time they were reconfiguring, there was
an opportunity but it was always contemplated as commercial and that money was paid. He asked when
they consider the appeal today they look at whether the County has shown any determination of new
impacts or whether they are remedying deficiencies in improvements that are needed to accommodate
the traffic, burden on these roads. He referred to the Duncan Study wish list.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked Staff for a response to the statements.
Mr. Roussos stated the purpose of the SIA was to construct improvements to the primary access
of the Edwards Village Subdivision, with U.S. Highway 6. Those improvements are generally taken as
part of the State Highway Access Code which are not really part ofthe Road Impact Fees. A credit
probably would not be allowed in that instance.
Ms. Migchelbrink spoke to the definition back to the new development and that lots Parce112 &
C-1, put together, resulted in less traffic producing square footage building. She does not believe that is
correct. She stated if these lots were not put together, it would be very difficult for them to develop on
their own. She spoke to the difficultly of obtaining two accesses onto Highway 6. You can't simply say
that if each were allowed to develop they would result in more traffic than they would if they were
combined.
Mr. Montag stated in order to accomplish the development that is currently contemplated the lot
line needed to be abandoned and a special use permit needed to be obtained. Secondly, there was
reference to a 20% reduction under what could be developed with the current zoning. The 20% is based
on a floor area ratio calculation, that being the relationship of the floor area relative to the net
developable allowed on the lot. It doesn't take into consideration any type of site constraints, site
characteristics, parking, driveway requirements, set backs, open space requirements, etc. He asked they
keep that in mind. The 20% is based on a floor area calculation without taking other items into
consideration.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked Mr. Roussos to elaborate on why credit should be given or
denied in this case.
Mr. Roussos referred to his letter of September 26,2002, which reflected the review of the Road
Impact Fee Committee on each and every point that was requested by Mr. Mueller. The primary item is
that for a credit to be given it must be for some infrastructure or right of way that is part of the Capital
Improvement Plan. The only item that would warrant a credit was the right of way that was dedicated to
Eagle County on the final plat of Edwards Corner. Mr. Mueller in accordance with the Road Impact Fee
Regulations submitted an appraisal from which they were able to come up with an appropriate credit.
Mr. Goodman stated he is not certain they have been clear when he hears Ms. Migchelbrink
speak. He stated the possibility to build on both of those lots combined, originally, would have been
from 63,000 to 67,000 square feet. They are saying they are building less than they could and therefore
the impacts are less. They are doing less than allowed on the one site. Secondly, they have not even
established a credit for the Romonov Center and the Stop and Save. To suggest the bike path does not
relate to traffic is disingenuous to the facts. The bike path is not merely recreational. He suggested the
bike path travels from residential to commercial and keeps people off the road. He stated they are not
small numbers in addition to the easement and there is nothing that shows how the impact fee monies
would be spent. He spoke to plans for the future for widening Highway 6. He stated there hasn't been
any tie from these buildings to those impacts. He spoke to the original configurations and those monies
were pay back.
Ms. Migchelbrink responded to the bike path question. He asked for three separate credits and
there are currently no paths identified on the capital improvement plan list of improvements. She stated
they are using the area where the bike path lies for green space to go for his 20% green space. He can't
get credit for it because it is not part of the plan.

Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked Ms. Mauriello for comments. She had none.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked Commissioner Stone for comments. He had none.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked Ms. Mauriello for her opinion on the choices the Board has at
this time.
Ms. Mauriello stated the Board has the power to affirm the decision made by staff or they may
reverse that decision. They will make written findings and conclusions and those will be part of another
hearing and part ofthe record. Should they chose to reverse the decision ofthe Impact Fee Committee
or to give credit for certain items that were not given credit for previously, the Board can direct the
administrator to make calculations accordingly.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi stated there are basically two decisions the Board needs to make and
one is whether or not Edwards Corner is a development and exempt from the fees. The other is with
regards to the credits. He asked if there is an opportunity for the Board to research and study the
information brought forward.
Ms. Mauriello stated the Board make take this under advisement but any formal decision needs
to be made publically with findings.
Mr. Goodman stated there is one other option possible and that is a variance. He stated ifthey
reach the conclusion that this is a new development that they consider a variance. He stated time is of
the essence because construction is ongoing on the project and this effects the building permit.
Rick Mueller stated they have an application for final plat on January 17, 2003, for the
foundation permit. For them to facilitate this and to get a building permit, he would be happy to provide
a letter of credit to keep the process going.
Commissioner Stone stated the discussion has been interesting but what they have failed to
discuss is that they have already discussed this and today's hearing is out of contest. The Board already
made a decision of what was required. He referred to the meeting minutes of May 28th and July 2nd it
was previously heard. He stated in the meeting minutes of May 28,2002 it talks about this application
for a zone change from CL to CG to a greater floor area, voids the exemption for the previous
subdivided lot. Based on the areas they discussed what the road impact fees would be. He read from the
minutes, as follows:
"Commissioner Stone stated he is not swayed by the applicants arguments that this was already
approved. " .
Commissioner Stone stated in looking at the meeting minutes of July 2, 2002, they were still
trying to state that this is not a new subdivision. He referred to page 17 where they were talking about
housing and road impact fees at the same time. Mr. Mueller had stated they do want credit for
developments they had already put in. It was discussed in general terms. In the requirements for final
plat, Mr. Forinash had stated that $199,000.00 is the road impact fee. He suggested discussing this
whole issue out of context is unfair and he finds it a little annoying and wonders how many times they
are going to discuss this. He believes they have already given this issue full due process and previously
they had decided what they would have to do in the way of affordable housing and road impact fees. He
stated the main concern is that they are not looking at this as the entire development. He stated he
doesn't know if they can go back and reassess this or look at the whole subdivision approval process
again. He has not changed his mind and the quotes from Ms. Mauriello clearly state this is a new
subdivision. In the findings he would state that the development is not exempt from the terms ofthe
Road Impact Fee Regulations and the Board had already determined what credits should be considered.
He suggested they might look at the credits again and that would be the only item considered.
Mr. Goodman stated he apologizes to Commissioner Stone and the purpose ofthe meeting today
was not to annoy them but to exercise the right to due process.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked about the distinction of what occurred in the previous
meetings and today.
Mr. Goodman stated his recollection is they were discussing this in the context of employee
32
12-10-2002
housing and that took the bulk of their efforts. They have since worked with Staff to try and come to a
number and had some discussion to see if there were any ways to establish the credits. They have since
gotten the bill and that is the purpose of the appeal today.
Commissioner Stone stated the meeting minutes clearly identify the fees and when the
Commissioners made the final approval he believes this was a condition of final plat approval.
Mr. Montag spoke to Staff report and the discussion of road impact fees and the number set forth
by Staff. He stated one could conclude that the Board was in agreement with what was included in the
Staff report.
Commissioner Stone stated the Commissioners already made one decision on this application.
Mr. Mueller asked if the Commissioners at that time went through item by item and asked if
there was an agreement reached by him. He suggested there were several items that would be affected
and some that were not.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked Mr. Montag to review the minutes.
Mr. Mueller stated he would be happy to allow the Board to review them later.
Mr. Montag stated it is his recollection that Commissioner Gallagher voted to approve this
project subject to the findings set forth in the minutes.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked at what point Staff started explaining that road impact fees
would be applied. He asked who and when that happened.
Mr. Montag stated the discussion would have occurred as the application was being reviewed and
as staff report was being prepared. He stated he does know that it was in the staff report which is
prepared prior to the start of any public hearing. He assumes the applicant was aware of those prior to
the start of public hearings.
Ms. Migchelbrink stated she had the conversation with Mr. Mueller no less than six times and
one of those was as they drove around and reviewed the areas of the improvements they wanted credit
for.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked how many of those discussions occurred before the hearing.
Ms. Migche1brink stated most of them as she wasn't present for the hearing.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked if the discussion would have taken place and been part ofthe
discussion with the Planning Commission.
Mr. Montag responded it would be a part of that hearing, just as the staff report is used at the
Commissioner hearing it is also used for the Planning Commission.
Mr. Mueller stated he has been working with Ms. Migchelbrink and Mr. Roussos for a long time.
At the time he and Ms. Migchelbrink viewed the property, she neither accepted or denied any of those
items. At previous meetings with Mr. Roussos he identified certain items on the list that would be no
problem. He spoke to the bus stop and that the trail was only going to the bus stop. He said later on he
got the report that said that everything was denied except the land that was given to the County. He
suggested he had not been part of the decision making process.
Commissioner Stone suggested maybe they can table this but is not sure of the proper protocol.
He spoke to the meeting minutes of July 2, 2002, right before the Board made a motion. He read as
follows:
"Commissioner Stone questioned Road Impact Fees.
Mr. Forinash stated $199,000 is their Road Impact Fees, which would happen at building permit.
Commissioner Stone asked if it was typical to have an SIA with this file that would put monies
towards a stop light.
Mr. Forinash stated if it were determined those to be off site impacts, that would be appropriate.
It is not significant to warrant those types of improvements.
Chairman Gallagher stated the traffic light at the Spur Road and Highway 6 is not adequate for
foot traffic. Could there be something added to that intersection.
Mr. Sulmeisters stated the intersection is being included in CDOT's list as monies become
33
12-10-2002
available.
Chairman Gallagher stated if pedestrian traffic was warranted, adding a pedestrian phase to the
other four phases would be adequate.
Mr. Roussos stated the impact fees would go towards the development.
Chairman Gallagher stated the Board has a list of fees incurred by Romanov, he is looking at
Road Impact Fees. He would like to know if number 5 was a Road Impact Fee of donations.
Mr. Mueller stated it was a donation by Bill Williams and Bob Warner for the signal at the
intersection.
Chairman Gallagher stated item number 5 is a contribution. He asked on item 4, Parcel 12, Lot
C1, is that what is being discussed today.
Mr. Mueller stated at the time their contribution was to go towards the Access Control Plan and
those monies would go towards that intersection.
Chairman Gallagher asked if that was a road impact fee.
Mr. Roussos stated that $36,400 was from the State and the access permit indicating it was to
cover impacts from the Edwards Village Center. The funds were to be deposited with the Treasurer.
Those monies are in an interest bearing account and are designated for the Spur Road and the
intersection.
Chairman Gallagher stated he has listened to the presentations from the applicant and staff and
questions from the Board. He stated there are two issues, employee housing and access. Concerning
access, he agrees with Commissioner Stone that the A solution is best. He suggested that requirement be
made and available to Tract T. Concerning the housing, the Arrowhead precedent was done with the
cooperation of the developer. The applicant has agreed to cooperate with payment in lieu of housing and
suggested that be made a condition of approval.
Ms. Bower stated payment in lieu of is $39,675.00 per unit multiplied by 1.19%, which is
$47,213.00.
Chairman Gallagher would ask the applicant to pay those amounts to the County.
Commissioner Menconi stated last week they listened to Wildfire Regulations and what they
know now with forest fires he believes they know what is being proposed in the Regulations. This is a
well designed project and will be a landmark. He stated he believes it is his responsibility to create
affordable housing. He stated developers have come forward and not enough affordable housing has
come forward. He suggested Tract T should be donated to the County.
Chairman Gallagher stated at such time they adopt new rules and regulations he would agree but
they must follow the current rules and regulations.
Commissioner Stone moved the Board approve File No. ZC-00051, Edwards Corner Zone
Change, incorporating the staff findings. "
Commissioner Stone stated they had pretty extended discussion on the road impact fees and he
assumed when they give final approval, the conditions are in effect. He read condition # 1 0 as follows:
"Except as otherwise modified by these conditions, all material representations of the Applicant
in this application and all public meetings shall be adhered to and be considered conditions of approvaL"
Commissioner Stone stated when they talk about something and talk about road impact fees he
believes them to be the conditions of approval and approval of the project was previously given.
Mr. Goodman pointed to the fact the focus was spent on employee housing issues. Subsequent to
the July meeting there was ongoing dialogue and a process of education. He spoke to letters in August
and September from Mr. Roussos, and another letter from Mr. Mueller. The number kept going down
and it is the most recent decision by the Road Impact Fee Committee that they are questioning.
Commissioner Stone stated he thought the decisions were already made. The Board made a
decision.
Mr. Mueller stated there is no question that the $199,000 was the figure given. What was not
discussed was the amounts of the credits.
34
12-10-2002
Commissioner Stone stated that is where they need to do some research.
Mr. Mueller stated he has a letter of September 26, 2002 and that is where the credits he had
applied for were denied. He stated the response came several months later. None of the figures were
approved at the point of the meeting.
Commissioner Stone stated he would like to make a motion for continuance.
Ms. Mauriello stated that would be the correct procedure.
Commissioner Stone asked if it would be for a date certain.
Mr. Mueller asked if he posts a letter of credit if it would allow them to move forward with the
building permit.
Ms. Mauriello stated she would like to review that and advise the applicant accordingly.
Commissioner Stone moved to continue the Road Impact Fee Board meeting concerning
Edwards Corner Subdivision until January 14, 2003.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote
was declared unanimous.
Commissioner Stone moved to adjourn as the Road Impact Fee Board and reconvene as the
Board of County Commissioners.
Chairman Pro-tem seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was
declared unanimous.
1041-0044 Adam's Rib
Bob Narracci, Planner, presented file number 1041-0044, Adams Rib. He stated the applicant is
requesting this matter be tabled to February 4, 2003 because the Planning Commission has not rendered
a recommendation on that file.
Commissioner Stone moved to table file number 1041-0044, Adams Rib to February 4,2003, at
the applicants request.
Chairman Pro-tem seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was
declared unanimous.

files be tabled to February 4,2003.
Commissioner Stone moved to table file number PDSP-00016, Adams Rib PUD Sketch /
Preliminary Plan and ZC-00059, Adam's Rib Zone Change to February 4, 2003 at the applicants request.
Chairman Pro-tem seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was
declared unanimous.
SE-00032, Williams Ranch Exemption
AFP-000150, Williams Parcels
Jena Skinner, Planner, presented file numbers SE-00032, Williams Ranch Exemption and AFP-
000150, Williams Parcels. She stated between 1974 and 1984 the Eagle County Land Use Regulations
permitted parcels of 120 acres! or more to be subdivided into three (3), small home sites ofless than 35
acres. This provision allowed ranchers to provide small home sites for their children, leaving the
balance of the 120 acres for ranching. Each home site had to be a minimum of two acres in size. This
35
12-10-2002
use was considered a "use by right" in the Resource zone district.
The property which is the subject ofthis proposal originally received approval in December,
1983. The site, known as the Williams Parcels, consists ofthree (3), approximately four (4) acre home
sites, on a total of 120 acres. The intent of the amended plat is to reconfigure parcels 1 and 3, adjusting
the home site locations to reduce the visual impact of homes to the east. Specifically, Parcell is
proposed to be moved west of the access easement and will contain an existing house2 and barn. Parcel
3 is proposed to moved 200 feet to the south (see attached Plat). Parcel 3 is, as yet, unimproved.
This proposal, although simple in theory, is problematic in that the Eagle County Land Use
Regulations do not offer a single, simple process to allow platted land to be incorporated into un-platted
land, and vice versa. Given our current regulations, to accomplish the applicant's goal of moving Parcel
1 into un-platted land, and an Exemption to exempt Parcel 1 from subdivision, and an Amended Final
Plat to adjust the lot lines, is the best possible solution.
1. Contiguous and noncontiguous parcels under one ownership were considered for the purposes
ofthis provision to constitute one parcel, as long as the total acreage was at least 120 acres.
2. The house was built in 1979, prior to the original subdivision.
Ms. Skinner spoke to the history....(she had this on her power point). She showed the maps of
the parcels and showed the two configurations. She stated the proposal is to move parcel three and move
parcel one.
Staff findings are as shown on staff report and as follows:
SE-00032
Pursuant to Section 5-270.A Exemptions approved by the Board of County Commissioners, the
Board of County Commissioners may, pursuant to a Resolution duly adopted at a public meeting,
exempt from the provisions of Section 5-280, Subdivision, any division of land, if it is determined that:
1. Not within purpose of Section. Such division IS NOT within the purposes of Section 5-280,
Subdivision. Eagle County does not have a single, simple method of moving subdivided/platted land,
into un-platted land. Due to the unique situation of the original subdivision, the Eagle County
Attorney's office has determined that the Board may approve a Subdivision Exemption by resolution,
which would exempt Parcell from going through Sketch and Preliminary Plan.
2. Adequate access, adequate potable water, and adequate sewage treatment facilities are
available. Adequate access, adequate potable water, and adequate sewage treatment facilities ARE
available. Pre-existing access shall be exempt from current driveway standards unless the use of the
access increases due to either a change, or intensity in use. The new Parcell will contain an existing
house. As such, water, sewer, access, adequate building site, and geology have already been established
with the approval of a building permit.
AFP-00150
Pursuant to Section 5-90.G.2. Standards for Amended Final Plat:
Adjacent property.
The proposed amendment DOES NOT have an adverse effect on adjacent property owners. The
following adjacent properties have been notified: Williams Ranch Investments, LLC, and Weeping
Willow Services, LP. No letters of opposition have been received by the Community Development
Department, from any of these owners, prior to the distribution of this Staff report.
Final Plat Consistency.
The proposed amendment IS consistent with the intent of the Final Plat.
Conformance with Final Plat Requirements.
The proposed amendment DOES conform to the Final Plat requirements and other applicable
regulations, policies and guidelines. The Subdivision Exemption must be approved prior to the Amended
Final Plat. With this approval, this finding is satisfactory.
Improvement Agreement.
36
12-10-2002
Proposed improvements and/or off-site road improvements agreement ARE adequate. Further
improvements are not necessary for this proposal as access to all lots has been previously established.
Restrictive Plat Note Alteration.
DOES NOT Apply.
Tom Boni and Terrill Knight, Knight Planning, were present from Knight Planning Services.
Dan Williams, applicant, was also present for the hearing.
Mr. Boni stated Ms. Skinner has shown the application well and they are requesting the change in
lot lines.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked for public comment. There was none.
Commissioner Stone asked for a map that shows the totality of the 120 acres and he would like to
see what happens to parcell. He asked if it is part of a bigger piece. He is trying to avoid having a
piece that is set off by itself.
Mr. Knight stated after looking very closely at the building site, they believe they can improve it
by moving the building site. It is the same density and the same number of parcels and units. They are
simply shifting one and it is connected.
Commissioner Stone asked if the 120 acres is contiguous.
Mr. Knight stated it is. It is not the intent or the result to separate the parcel.
Commissioner Stone moved the Board approve Resolution 2002-172 for File No. SE-00032,
Williams Ranch Exemption.
Chairman Pro-tem seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was
declared unanimous.
Commissioner Stone moved the Board approve Pile No. AFP-00150, Williams Parcels,
incorporating the findings and authorize the Chairman to sign the Plat.
Chairman Pro-tem seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote was
declared unanimous.
PDA-00039 Arrowhead at Vail
Joseph Forinash, Planner, presented file number PDA-00039, Arrowhead at Vail. He stated this
file was initially heard and tabled by the Board at its' meeting of29 October 2002. The Applicant has
proposed certain revisions to the text of the amendment to the PUD. The attached revised text is marked
to show the changes, including new text in red typeface.
Staff has continued to receive correspondence from property owners within the Arrowhead at
Vail PUD. Staffhas attempted to tally the responses, which as of this writing total 135. It should be
noted, however, that the responses do not in all cases lend themselves to precise categorization.
Consequently, the following tally represents Staffs best effort to do so. He stated there are three
additional responses with 2 in favor and one opposed. He stated the applicant has also provided a
revision of the amended text providing clarification of some of the issues raised. He spoke also to a
letter received from Vail Arrowhead, Inc., regarding certain commitments.

Amendment
INTERVAL OWNERSHIP/TIMESHARE.
This Section XIV shall apply only to those portions of the Arrowhead PUD that were at any time
platted as "Arrowhead" or "Arrowhead at Vail". References in this Section XIV to "Arrowhead" or
"Arrowhead at Vail" shall not include or apply to those portions ofthe Arrowhead pUD that are platted
as or referred to as "Bachelor Gulch Village. This Section XIV does not apply to or have any effect in
relation to those portions of the Arrowhead pUD that are platted as or referred to as "Bachelor Gulch
Village". Permitted land uses or any restrictions on land use within or in regard to the Bachelor Gulch
Village portion of the Arrowhead PUD shall be as provided for in sections of this PUD Guide other than
this Section XIV.
Except as expressly permitted in subsection 5 below, no Dwelling Unit, Duplex Structure or
Unit, Condominium, Cabin, Chalet, Lodge Unit, Studio Unit, Lot, Single Family Structure or Unit,
Single Family Primary/Secondary Structure or Unit, Cluster Home or any other structure, as such terms
may be used or defined within this Guide, within any property subject to this pUD that is platted as
"Arrowhead" or "Arrowhead at Vail" (each, a "Unit") shall be used:
1. for the operation of a timesharing, fraction-sharing, interval ownership, or similar program
whereby the right to exclusive use of a Unit rotates among participants in the program on a fixed or
floating time schedule over a period of years, or
2. for the operation of a reservation or time-use system among co-Owners of a Unit, regardless of
whether or not any co-Owner may later opt out of such system and regardless of whether the reservation
or time-use system is recorded or unrecorded, fixed or floating, if one or more of the following
conditions exist:
3. such system is adopted, imposed or managed by a party other than the co-Owners themselves,
or
4. such Unit is publicly marketed for sale subject to such system, or
5. the co-Owners are or were required, as a condition of purchase of a fractional interest in the
Unit, to subject the fractional interest to a pre-determined reservation or time-use system among co-
Owners.
6. all of the foregoing uses, systems or programs of ownership are hereinafter called "Interval
Ownership".
7. Mere co-ownership of a Unit shall not create an Interval Ownership as defined herein unless
such co-ownership meets any of the conditions described in subsection 2 above.
8. Any use of a Unit for Interval Ownership purposes in effect and existing at the time that this
Section XIV is adopted and included within this PUD Guide shall be a "Nonconforming Use" as that
term is defined in Article 2 of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations in effect at the time this Section
XIV is adopted. It is the intent of this amendment to the pUD Guide to permit these Nonconforming
Uses to continue, until they are removed but not to encourage their survival. Therefore, such
Nonconforming Uses may continue in accordance with the provisions and limitations contained in
Section 6-110 of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations in effect at the time this Section XIV is
adopted.
9. Notwithstanding any other limitation contained in this Section XIV, Interval Ownership
Projects (hereinafter defined) shall be permitted on those certain properties within the Arrowhead PUD
that are platted as "Arrowhead" or "Arrowhead at Vail" described below, whether or not specified as a
38
12-10-2002
"Use" or "Permitted Use" in the applicable development area.
A. Lots 1,2,21, and 32, and Tracts Band F, Arrowhead at Vail Filing No. 13; and
B. Tracts G and H, Dakota at Arrowhead Phase 3.
As used herein, the term "Interval Ownership Project" shall mean any development (whether
single-family, condominium, duplex or town home) (each, a "Project") within which all Units are used,
sold and conveyed on an Interval Ownership basis and are managed by one party on a Project-wide
basis. In the event that any Unit in a Project is sold on a whole-ownership basis (meaning the Unit is
sold to an individual owner and not for Interval Ownership use), then no Unit within such Project shall
be used for Interval Ownership purposes.
Mr. Forinash stated the Planning Commission discussed the reasons for making any ofthe
parcels in Arrowhead portion of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD exempt from the restrictive portions of this
proposed PUD amendment.
Distinctions between the types of timeshare, interval ownership, and fraction share uses that would be
restricted by this PUD amendment and other types of ownership arrangements (e.g., rental pools) that
would not be affected. Desirability of addressing the issue through a PUD amendment as opposed to a
revision to the applicable covenants.
Mr. Forinash stated this was an amendment to the PUD Guide which would place restrictions on
the permitted location of timeshare, interval ownership, and fraction share uses in the Arrowhead at Vail
PUD. More specifically, the proposed amendment to the PUD Guide would [1] restrict timeshare,
interval ownership, and fraction share uses in certain portions of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD platted as
"Arrowhead", [2] permit timeshare, interval ownership, and fraction share uses in other portions of the
Arrowhead at Vail PUD platted as "Arrowhead", and [3] not affect permitted or restricted land uses in
that part of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD platted as "Bachelor Gulch Village".
As it currently stands, the PUD Guide explicitly permits interval ownership uses in certain areas
of the Bachelor Gulch Village portion of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD, and is silent with respect to
interval ownership as a permitted use in the balance of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD, including
Arrowhead. At least in part because "interval ownership" has elements of being both a land use and an
ownership arrangement, it has been the position the County Attorney's Office that interval ownership is
permitted throughout the PUD.
In recent years, two single family dwellings in Arrowhead have been owned and operated at
interval ownership uses and have resulted, in the perception of other property owners in Arrowhead, in
adverse impacts on the Arrowhead at Vail PUD. Given the opinion of the County Attorney's Office
regarding the nature of interval ownership as a permitted use throughout the PUD, options available to
the Applicant include seeking a PUD amendment or a revision to the applicable covenants. The
Applicant is pursuing a PUD amendment as the more practical of the two.
The proposed amendment, as originally submitted, would have restricted timeshare, interval
ownership, and fraction share uses in both the Arrowhead and the Bachelor Gulch Village portions of the
Arrowhead at Vail PUD. The response to this proposal (see attached letters dated prior to 17 September
2002) included 23 letters from property owners, 22 of which expressed opposition to the PUD
amendment. A common theme in the responses has been opposition to timeshare, interval ownership,
and fraction share uses anywhere within the Arrowhead at Vail PUD.
The Applicant subsequently revised the proposed PUD amendment to [1] restrict timeshare,
interval ownership, and fraction share uses in most areas of the Arrowhead portion of the Arrowhead at
Vail PUD, and [2] not change the provisions of the PUD Guide for the Bachelor Gulch Village portion
of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD. Second notices, which were mailed to owners of property in the
Arrowhead at Vail PUD on 17 September 2002, included additional information regarding the proposed
PUD amendment and the revised text of the amendment. The Applicant has also mailed a letter to
property owners providing an additional explanation of the proposed amendment. Copies of each are
enclosed.

all lots or units. An access easement shall be granted for emergency vehicles and utility vehicles, as
applicable, to use private roadways in the development for the purpose of providing emergency services
and for installation, maintenance and repair of utilities.
(d) Principal Access Points. Principal vehicular access points shall be designed to provide for
smooth traffic flow, minimizing hazards to vehicular, pedestrian or bicycle traffic. Where a PUD abuts
a major collector, arterial road or highway, direct access to such road or highway from individual lots,
units or buildings shall not be permitted. Minor roads within the PUD shall not be directly connected
with roads outside of the PUD, unless the County determines such connections are necessary to
maintain the County's road network.
(e) Snow Storage. Adequate areas shall be provided to store snow removed from the internal
street network and from off-street parking areas.
At the time the Preliminary Plan for the PUD was approved, it was determined that adequate
improvements were to be made. The proposed PUD Amendment will neither adversely effect the

EAGLE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING PLAN
VISION STATEMENT: Housing for local residents is a major priority of Eagle County. There
should be a wide variety of housing to fulfill the needs of all its residents, including families, senior
citizens, and those who work here. Elements of Eagle County's vision for housing are:
Housing is a community-wide issue.
Housing should be located in close proximity to existing community centers, as defined in the
Eagle County Master Plan.
Development of local residents housing should be encouraged on existing transit routes.
Housing is primarily a private sector activity but without the active participation of government,
there will be only limited success.
It is important to preserve existing local residents housing.
Persons who work in Eagle County should have adequate housing opportunities within the
county.
Development applications that will result in an increased need for local residents housing should
be evaluated as to whether they adequately provide for this additional need, the same way as they are
evaluated for other infrastructure needs
POLICIES:
ITEM
I YES I NO I N/A I
1. Eagle County will collaborate with the private sector & nonprofit organizations to
develop housing for local residents
2. Housing for local residents is an issue which Eagle County needs to address in
collaboration with the municipalities. . .
3. Steps should be taken to facilitate increased home ownership by local residents x
and workers in Eagle County
4. Additional rental opportunities for permanent local residents should be brought on
line. Some... should be for households with an income equivalent to or less than x
one average wage job
5. Seasonal housing is part of the problem & needs to be further addressed. It is x
primarily the responsibility of. . . employers. . .
6. New residential subdivisions will provide a percentage of their units for local x
residents
7. Commercial, industrial, institutional, and public developments generating
increased employment will provide local residents housing. The first preference x
will be for units on-site where feasible, or ifnot feasible, in the nearest existing
community center. . .
8. The County will seek to make land available for local residents housing in
proximity to community centers
9. Mixed use developments in appropriate locations are encouraged x
10. Factory-built housing is an important part of Eagle County's housing stock x
11. There is a need to segment a portion of the housing market to protect local
residents from having to compete with second home buyers. Where public
assistance or subsidies are provided for housing, there should generally be limits x
on price appreciation, as well as residency requirements
12. Eagle County recognizes that housing for local residents is an ongoing issue

one thousand (1,000) persons who are residents of the PUD. In order to calculate the number of
residents of the PUD, the number of proposed dwelling units shall be multiplied by two and sixty-three
hundredths (2.63), which is the average number of persons that occupy each dwelling unit in Eagle
County, as determined in the Eagle County Master Plan.
i. Areas that Do Not Count as Open Space. Parking and loading areas, street right-of-ways,
and areas with slopes greater than thirty (30) percent shall not count toward usable open space.
ii. Areas that Count as Open Space. Water bodies, lands within critical wildlife habitat areas,
riparian areas, and one hundred (100) year flood plains, as defined in these Land Use Regulations, that
are preserved as open space shall count towards this minimum standard, even when they are not usable
by or accessible to the residents of the PUD. All other open space lands shall be conveniently
accessible from all occupied structures within the PUD.
(b) Improvements Required. All common open space and recreational facilities shall be shown
on the Preliminary Plan for PUD and shall be constructed andfully improved according to the
development schedule established for each development phase of the PUD.
(c) Continuing Use and Maintenance. All privately owned common open space shall continue
to conform to its intended use, as specified on the Preliminary Plan for PUD. To ensure that all the

covenants shall be placed in each deed to ensure their maintenance and to prohibit the division of any
common open space.
(d) Organization. If common open space is proposed to be maintained through an association
or nonprofit corporation, such organization shall manage all common open space and recreational and
cultural facilities that are not dedicated to the public, and shall provide for the maintenance,
administration and operation of such land and any other land within the PUD not publicly owned, and
secure adequate liability insurance on the land. The association or nonprofit corporation shall be
established prior to the sale of any lots or units within the PUD. Membership in the association or
nonprofit corporation shall be mandatory for all landowners within the PUD.

The proposed PUD Amendment satisfies the requirements of this Standard.
[+] FINDING: Amendment to Preliminary Plan for PUD [Section 5-240.F. 3.m . ]
The proposed PUD Amendment (1) IS consistent with the efficient development and
preservation ofthe entire Planned Unit Development, (2) DOES NOT affect in a substantially adverse
manner either the enjoyment ofland abutting upon or across a street from the planned unit development
or the public interest, and (3) IS NOT granted solely to confer a special benefit upon any person.
Rick Plyman, PJ Land Planning and Greg Perkins, Counsel for the applicant, were present for the
hearing. Mr. Plyman stated they did go through this at a previous meeting and he will be happy to
review any of the issues as needed. They are representing Vail Arrowhead Inc. and the Arrowhead at
Vail Association. They are the master homeowners association for Arrowhead and are the voice of the
residents and owners of Arrowhead. Within that ownership group there has been a concern with a fairly
recent land use phenomonon with the Vacation Club/Timeshare Use of single family homes. He spoke
to timesharing of otherwise wholly owned units. The Arrowhead PUD guide does not address
timesharing as a concept. The state of the art in the land use has changed significantly. The Beaver
Creek PUD was specifically amended to state where timesharing is allowed or not. They would like to
amend the Arrowhead PUD to specifically identify where timesharing would or would not be allowed.
This would not include Bachelor Gulch. They have written that definition and the language which has
been reviewed by the County Attorney. They have made some amendments since the last meeting.
They also put this issue out to the homeowners. The Board of Directors of the Homeowners Association
has voted in favor. He spoke to the the letter to the homeowners as well and the recap of the letters they
have received in response. They believe the letters are supportive. They have tried to communicate the
issue and they believe there is a majority of support. He suggested they open this up for discussion.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked for public comment.
Tom Lianheart, President of Arrowhead at Vail Homeowners Association stated, he speaks for
the majority ofthe homeowners who are in favor of this project. He stated he mentioned at the last
meeting that Arrowhead is always referred to as Arrowhead Resort. He stated about 20% of the 550
home sites are residents. They see this as a community. In Arrowhead there are only seven commercial
establishments. He stated when the Cresent Club began advertising timesharing, the homeowners got
very concerned. That is why they are here today to request the County Commissioners prohibit
timesharing within Arrowhead. He stated their concerns have been realized. They are probably good
folks but they don't understand Arrowhead. He spoke to garbage, parking, parties, and animals. They
end up with absentee ownership and they don't have the ability to deal with the issues of timesharing.
They don't believe it should be present in single family areas. He stated VRA owns four sites in
Arrowhead which are exempt of the PUD amendment. Three of those are parking lots and the site right
behind the lift. Those are vacant today, but if they develop, they could elect to put timesharing in those
48
12-10-2002
areas. If they do elect to do so, the entire complex will have to be timeshare. Secondly, the site would
be managed by a professional manager similar to Ritz Carlton. They have an agreement with VRA on
this issue. Next is the issue of rental units as some property owners do in the village core. The majority
are managed by onsite property managers. They then can go to the property manager and deal with the
owners of the property. With timeshares that is less than possible. They do have overall community
support. He spoke to the matrix provided by Mr. Forinash and the 25 correspondents who where
opposed. He stated those individuals were actually in Bachelor Gulch and that area has been pulled out
of this amendment. He stated there is in fact a ground swell of support from the Arrowhead owners.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked how many single family homes there are in Arrowhead.
Mr. Lianheart stated about 300 and two are interval ownership homes.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked about concerns with those.
Mr. Lianheart stated they have had concerns and Mr. Maxwell, a neighbor, can speak to those.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked how many of the single family homes are rented short term.
Mr. Lianheart stated he believes very few.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi spoke to the purchase by multiple parties of one home. He asked if
that takes place in Arrowhead.
Mr. Lianheart stated there are some ofthose whether families, corporations, trusts, etc. but they
know who those are.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi spoke to the direct link with the owners of the properties.
Mr. Lianheart stated there is a direct link and they have a vested interest in the property and in
the neighborhood.
Commissioner Stone asked what they see as a perceived benefit of having a complex being
whole ownership or timeshare.
Mr. Lianheart stated people then know what they are buying into. He stated it is more of a
perception and an understanding and the management will pay more attention to the entire unit.
Commissioner Stone spoke to St. James Place in Beaver Creek where one wing is whole
ownership and another is timeshare. He stated it developed from interval ownership and then included
whole ownership. He asked about the vested interest and making a $300,000 investment. He asked
what if there is a requirement that there be an onsite manager.
Mr. Lianheart stated people bought into a unit or a single family home assuming that that they
will get to know the neigbors but the neighbors change weekly.
Bill Maxwell, full time resident of Arrowhead and on the Homeowners Association Board, stated
he lives two doors away from Cresent Club. He suggested there are at least two new groups that come in
per week. He spoke to the trash and the lack of respect for parking regulations. He stated had he known
that was going to happen he would not have made the investment in his residence. He would like to see
this eliminated. He stated a lot of people talk about rental units but typically that is rented full time.
Timeshare is a different matter and will increase the maintanance costs for the public uses. He stated
they want Arrowhead to be the community that it started out as.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked who owns the Cresent Club.
Mr. Maxwell stated he honestly doesn't know.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked how it is managed. He asked if one is interested in using an
interval week, how do they go about it.
Mr. Maxwell stated he has never seen two groups converge on the same day.
Jack Kosen, developer in Arrowhead, stated he has a vested interest because he has a club that
would like to purchase there. He thinks there are some misconceptions with a timeshare being mis-
managed or a problem to neighbors. He stated a great deal of Arrowhead is rented and he thinks that
putting everything into one box is a problem. He stated people will have an investment and they are
coming to a place that they will return to. They do have a vested interest. He stated in the case they are
considering, they would have a full time concierge with a car in the garage. Some of the stories they
49
12-10-2002
hear are some of the things that can be handled through rules and policies. There is the opportunity to
have over site. There are many teenage kids and they don't always park properly. He thinks there is a
concept that if a person can't afford to buy the whole thing that they aren't good enough to be there. He
thinks that is wrong and he thinks that most of the issues that have been talked about can be addressed
with regulations and regulating authorities. He stated he is a developer and owns a number of properties
that are for sale. He would not sell with the idea that his neighbors are annoyed. He thinks that these
clubs, if run properly, can be an asset to the community. He stated they are notoriously underused.
Something that will give vitality is a good thing for the community. He suggested if this regulation is
enacted it will take away his property rights and a property he has under contract that will make that
happen. He stated at first blush people see the negative. He believes a lot oftimes there is a reaction,
but once thought out it can be helpful.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked about the closing of the contract.
Mr. Kosen stated this particular property will be a high end project.
Dana Dunbar, a resident of Arrowhead and the first home owner there, stated the Cresent Club
was never deemed a timeshare by the State of Colorado because of the number of ownerships within a
year. That number is 16 and set by the State. She stated she is not tallied on the list. She stated there is
nothing wrong with a timeshare, it is a good thing. She does have a concern with the various entities
related to Vail Resorts, and questions having the PUD that is the village being incorporated into
timeshare. She stated there are some units within the PUD that are asking for favors where others are
being denied. She spoke to the statement of it does not adversely affect the neighborhood and is not
granted solely for the use on one person. Accordingly should this application be approved. Vail
Arrowhead, Inc. will receive a land use benefit unique to only hand held properties by the applicant, and
to the detriment of other owners within that PUD. The expressed requirements that modify this PUD
have not been met and they can not be met by this. She stated she is in favor of the core of Arrowhead
being allowed to do timeshare. She thinks that all properties should have the same rights within this
specific PUD spot zoning area that is requested. If it is fair for the goose, it is fair for the gander. She
spoke to units within the same building not being allowed to do the same thing. She is asking the Board
go ahead and see the PUD is changed, suggested the need to have it be fair and make it across the board
to make it unilateral. She spoke to timeshare management and you will have good management to have
secure the property. She stated what will have impact is the usage of the public units. She stated the
Alpine Club has allowed the owners to use the pool.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked if right now the core has the right for timeshare and whether
these amendments to the PUD would stop that right.
Ms. Dunbar stated right now it is spots.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked if properties that are already built should be allowed to change
over to timeshare units.
Ms. Dunbar stated only in the core group.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked ifthere are carved out areas.
Mr. Forinash stated as the PUD guide is written now there is no provision for the timeshare or
interval ownership. He stated by the absense of that distinction, timeshare is allowed throughout the
Arrowhead portion of the Arrowhead at Vail PUD.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi stated there is a core area and inside that core area there is vacant
land that would allow for the timeshares. Is there other vacant land within this subdivision that this
amendment would not allow to have timeshares.
Mr. Forinash stated he would guess that there are vacant parcels outside of the core area that
would then preclude interval ownership.
Ms. Dunbar stated there are two houses that came in under Cresent Club. She stated Mr.
Maxwell lives next door to a home in Arrowhead, but she lived next door to a home which is always
advertised for rentals as it has eight bedrooms. She suggested they not spot within the spotted area. She

sees no difference with the two night rentals being done today.
Commissioner Stone asked on this map which properties are or are not effected.
Mr. Forinash stated there are two parcels in the Arrowhead PUD. This amendment would not
effect any ofthe Bachelor Gulch PUD.
Commissioner Stone asked what portions of the Arrowhead PUD would be effected. Outside of
the core area he asked, besides the two homes, don't these regulations allow for somebody to continue
the existing use.
Mr. Forinash stated the core area has not been defined. If there are some areas outside the core
area they would be allowed to continue.
Ms. Dunbar stated if they are going to have rentals by the week, she is saying when they isolate
the Village Core area and spot there, then that is not fair.
Commissioner Stone spoke to the exemption of people already having a timeshare use, they
would be allowed to continue with that use.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi questioned in the amendment if a group of individuals want to
purchase a home what are the specifics.
Mr. Forinash stated it is the management of the timeshare that is critical.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi spoke to many homes in the valley that are owned by an LLC or a
group of investors. He asked if the regulation prohibits that.
Mr. Pylman stated they have rewritten this because it does not adequately address some of the
other ownership structures. He spoke to siblings, friends, a corporation owning or sharing a house. He
stated the language is specific in the amendment.
Greg Perkins stated sections 2 & 3 address the concerns and that meer co-ownership doesn't
violate the ownership. He stated it further explains public marketing or non-owner management. He
stated if you go out and buy an Arrowhead unit with five of your friends that does not violate the intent.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked about a corporation.
Mr. Perkins stated that does not violate the intent.
Bob Nolan, area resident, asked Commissioner Stone about a conversation regarding St. James
Place. He stated he understood the first and second phases were advertised as timeshare and the third
phase was private ownership. This was understood before people purchased and knew what they were
buying into. He has been in Arrowhead for about six years and was originally an owner in the village at
Spruce Tree Lodge. He left that area for a single family home because he didn't want the rental issue.
He has no experience with intraval ownership. He stated when he bought into Arrowhead, Vail Resorts
advertised it as Vail's private address. He bought into the concept of a private village and everything it
offers. He thinks it is totally inappropriate for those who bought into the private address concept to be
surrounded with interval ownership.
Mat Mullin, resident of Arrowhead, stated he grew up there. He has gotten to know the security
of Arrowhead and in talking with them has come to understand they have more problems with the
renters than the interval ownership. He doesn't believe that people who own property there would want
to have their options taken away. He spoke to the neighborhood, but also as Vail's private address. He
stated it is unique that you live in a neighborhood that is also a resort. He stated Arrowhead is both and
should be considered as both. He suggested if this is left alone, nothing will be effected. If this is
passed, nothing will be effected but the unbuilt land owned by Vail Resorts.
Terry Staples, resident from the Front Range and partner of Jack Kosen, stated he has been a
homeowner in Arrowhead for over four years and considers himself to be a vacation homeowner. He
comes to enjoy the amenities. He owns a condominium in the Village and bought with the desire to have
several opportunities for use. One being to sell it to Club ownership. He stated he is on the Board of
Directors of the Arrowhead Village Association. He stated the ones that are marked on the map are
owned by Vail Resorts or it's subsidiary. He stated all the black spaces between those identified are
parcels within the village.
51
12-10-2002
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked if those parcels marked are open space.
Mr. Staples explained the lots shown are the undeveloped lots that are shown on the map as
open.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked if there is any undeveloped land within the core.
Mr. Staples stated he does not believe so. He stated he does not want to misrepresent anything
and that he would like to be able to sell or use his property as a club sale.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked how many condos are in the building.
Mr. Staples stated 11. He stated five ofthe units he believes are in the rental pool.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked how they would make twelve condos into interval units.
Mr. Staples stated when they set up the regulations for the facility they did not negate the
opportunity for club ownership or interval ownership.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi questioned if this was not an issue at this time, their condominium
association would not be present.
Joe Labow, owner of two properties in Arrowhead, stated if you look at the data, the majority of
the people who did comment are voting against timeshare and voting in favor of this amendment. He
reviewed the numbers. He stated in a democratic process, the vote is very strong. He stated the vote
was strong before and after October 29.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked ifhe was present at an association meeting where there was a
vote.
Mr. Labow stated they were asked to send in their comments. He stated he voted for the
amendment.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked if it should be an all or nothing amendment. If it was allowed
in one part of Arrowhead should it not be allowed in all portions of Arrowhead.
Mr. Labow stated when he related he wanted the amendment it was because of the center area
that Vail Resorts owns. He is more concerned about the areas of Arrowhead where there are single
family homes and duplexes. He stated it is a different feeling of owning a time share than owning your
own home. He stated the other matter is the property values. Selling of condominiums or duplexes does
not bring the same amount as a single family homes. He stated he is personally against timeshares.
Dennis Robertson, Arrowhead resident, stated he finds this to be a simple issue. If a tabling is
requested, he is certain they can find that 75% to 80% ofthe homeowners within Arrowhead, would
prefer to see this amendment adopted. The only people that are here speaking against the proposal have
something to gain. He stated no one would be in favor of having their next door unit being converted
into timeshare. He stated an overwhelming majority do not want time shares and are in favor ofthis
amendment.
Jim Mitchell, Arrowhead resident, asked a question of Mr. Perkins. He stated Jim Thompson
also states that Arrowhead is the gateway for Beaver Creek. He suggested they do allow public access
through there. He stated he owns one unit and is under contract to purchase another one. If five people
bought a house and managed it themselves and rented it 50% of the time, they would be going against
the regulations.
Mr. Perkins stated they would not. He stated it would not be a timeshare and is not
professionally managed.
Don Miller, Arrowhead resident, stated he retired ten years ago and bought a condomimum in
Vail and one in Snowmass. He sold the unit in Snowmass and then moved to Arrowhead. He stated the
big difference is whether you own a condominium or a townhouse. He stated he was never told he had
to live here full time. He stated his re-sale value will definitely hurt if this amendment is passed. He
stated there should be a grandfather clause to protect him.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked what type of property did Mr. Miller own.
Mr. Miller stated he owned a condominium in Arrowhead.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked about the number of units in the building.
52
12-10-2002
Mr. Miller stated he did not know.
Chairman Pro-tern Menconi asked what Mr. Miller wanted to be able to do.
Mr. Miller stated he would like to be able to sell to anyone. It is a part of his retirement and this
IS wrong.
Dennis Roberston stated he believes that every neighbor of a person selling his or her unit as a
timeshare unit would have substantially decreasing value in their home. He stated it is similar with
single family homes. If there is a piece of property purchased for the intent of building a timeshare, the
owners on both sides are going to suffer on the value of their homes.
Joe Labow spoke to the two properties he has for sale. He stated the properties that sell first and
have the greatest appreciation are single family dwellings. The properties that sell next is the duplexes
and yet they are greatly depreciated in comparison to the single family homes. The last to sell are the
condominiums and townhouses. Part of the reason is that people are concerned about who is going to be
their neighbor.
Chairman Pro-tern closed public comment. He asked if the applicant had further comments.
Mr. Pylman stated they have tried to write this as intelligently as possible and allow people to
continue to enjoy the rights of private property owenership. They have also tried to address the
proliferation of the club concept mixing interval ownership into whole ownership developments. He
thinks they have accomplished that. He stated they also tried to address the core area and the property
rights of the remaining vacant parcels. Time share is not a restricted use on properties throughout
Arrowhead. He stated they have worked closely with all the Attorneys involved. He stated they tried
to address the core area and the property rights of the remaining vacant parcels. They have shown on the
map all of the remaining vacant properties. From the PUD Amendment, they are exempted. If a proj ect
is built that is a complete time share, there are regulations that will apply to that. He stated in the rest of
the area, the constituents are relating they do not want time shares in their neighborhood.
Commissioner Stone asked what ifhe makes a motion to approve the regulations with the
deletion of paragraph # 5 which exempts and allows the interval ownerships on eight pieces of property.
Mr. Pylman stated this application has been made on behalf of Arrowhead Association and on
behalf of Arrowhead Inc., and the applicant would withdraw the application.
Commissioner Stone asked what ifhe moved to approve this amendment but also included a new
paragraph also exempting the balance of the core area, that would include the core area.
Mr. Pylman stated he would defer to the Association.
Mr. Perkins stated the answer on that would be to this point they have heard from the broad base
of homeowners, that they are in support ofthe proposal. He suggested ifthat was a consideration they
would ask for tabling so they could find out if that is acceptable to the homeowners or not.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi suggested there is an interesting standout from the developer who
has a property under contract and a person who has gone forward with the purpose of selling it as an
interval ownership. He asked if that could be listed as a condition of the amendment that those who are
under contract would not be subjected to these regulations. That would not only include Jack but any
other properties that are currently under contract.
Mr. Pylman stated they wrote the grandfather clause because they did not want to get into a long
battle with those who have a vested interest.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked ifthis was to go into effect how this would affect those under
contract.
Mr. Perkins stated he thinks they are changing a law that tells you how you can use your
property. Under this, it would not fall under the definition of non-conforming use. That property is
already used for something that violates the regulation. He suggested if they have a concern with that
kind of issue, maybe they should set an effective date for this amendment that would allow anyone who
has a property under contract to make the sale and to develop.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi stated his concern is that of fairness.
53
12-10-2002
Ms. Dunbar suggested that this is spot zoning within a PUD and it is for the future. In great
fairness just say no. Ifthe owners in the core really don't want this, that's what they don't want. If you
say that you will approve ofthis in the core unit then everyone has the fairness to be able to take part in
this.
Mr. Perkins stated he understands wanting to make things fair. He spoke to cherry picking.
Maybe there is a way to make this fair. He suggested that if any whole project might want to convert,
they could make that possible.
Commissioner Stone asked what if they gave a time period for anyone within this area in
Arrowhead time to request an exemption for this new rule.
Mr. Perkins asked what would be the criteria. He suggested it takes the effect ofthis away.
Commissioner Stone stated the majority of people are against this. Very few people would ask
for exemptions. He suggested a process that is similar is within special districts and the Board of County
Commissioners have the allowance to grant exemptions. He stated he can see the validity in owners
stating this is not the kind of thing they bought into. On the other hand, he is not convinced that
timesharing is a terrible thing. He stated he is trying to protect the rights ofthe minority while trying to
be fair to the majority.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi stated he thinks the one thing he can add is that the people who have
brought forth this proposal could be giving up something too. The resort company could be interested to
see iftourism is viable in this community. This would prohibit a number of hot beds from occurring in
the community which is also beneficial to the tourist based economy. He stated he would be willing to
move forward to allow for a time period for those under contract to complete their sales.
Mr. Mullin stated it is blatently apparent that this is going to benefit some people and not others
by the fact that they are willing to withdraw their application.
Jack Kosen stated he likes what Commissioner Stone put forward and he thinks it would be
important for the owners in the core area to understand. He believes the time would have to be long
enough to give them time to understand this and see the possible value to them. He stated in the core
this would be a valuable thing and that people would not want to give it up. He believes there will be a
fair number who will want to reserve the right.
Tom Leinhart stated a good majority of the letters in the packet are within the core. The ground
swell response has been developing over a number of years. He suggested somebody's ox will be gored.
He spoke to walking dogs without a lead. The point is, a number of people bought the homes to be in a
neighborhood and have a private place to live. The real issue is why am I there, things have changed and
I want to fix it.
Commissioner Stone stated it is very difficult to take something away once it has been given.
The comparison differs when it comes to private property rights. He stated he would like to table this
for a sufficient period of time for the applicant to come back with a modification of the exemption
language to either do so or to consider two scenarios. One would be to exempt the core area. The other
suggestion he would like to ask them to explore is giving the opportunity to request an exemption for
some period of time. He thinks it is worth exploring.
Mr. Pylman spoke to the two options for the association to discuss. Another option is to set a
timeframe for individuals to sell or bring their properties into a non-conforming use.
Commissioner Stone stated he is not opposed to any suggestions.
Mr. Pylman stated they did not reach a concensus and would like the time to take this back to the
Association.
Commissioner Stone stated he appreciates that everyone seems to be willing to take this back and
find a workable conclusion. He suggested it is always easier for the Board to make a decision when
everyone is in agreement.
Mr. Forinash stated the earliest date would be the last meeting in January which is Jaunuary 28,
2003.
54
12-10-2002
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi asked ifthey have closed public comment they would in fact only
need Yz hour.
Commissioner Stone asked how long they will need to get to the Association.
Mr. Lernhart stated his term ends in two weeks. He stated that the end of January would provide
them enough time.
Commissioner Stone moved the Board table File No. PDA-00039, Arrowhead at Vail, to January
28,2003 at the applicant's request.
Chairman Pro-tem Menconi seconded the motion. Of the two voting Commissioners the vote
was declared unanimous.
There being no further business to be brought before the Board the meeting was adjourned until
December 17, 2002.
