MINUTES OF THE REGULAR AVON TOWN COUNCIL MEETING
HELD OCTOBER 8, 1985 - 7:30 P.M.
The regular meeting of the Town Council of the Town of Avon,
Colorado, was held in the Municipal Building, 400 Benchmark Road,
Avon, Colorado, in the Council Chambers.
Mayor Allan Nottingham called the meeting to order at 7:45 p.m. A
roll call was taken with Clint Watkins, Steve Miller, Sheila
Davis, A.J. Wells, Al Connell, and Don Buick present. Also
present were Town Attorney John Dunn, Town Manager Bill James,
Director of Engineering/Community Development Norm Wood, Director
of Public Works/Parks & Recreation Larry Brooks, and members of
the press and public.
The Mayor called for Citizen Input. As there was no one to be
heard, the Mayor closed the Citizen Input discussion.
At this point, the Mayor changed the order of the ordinances,
placing Ordinance #85-18 first on the agenda, because of two
issues that could be considered together later.
Second reading of Ordinance No. 85-18, Series of 1985, AN
ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR THE APPROVAL OF USES PURSUANT TO A PRECISE
PLAN FOR A PORTION OF THE SPA (SPECIALLY PLANNED AREA) ZONE
DISTRICT ESTABLISHED BY ORDINANCE 85-3.
Norm Wood stated that, at the conclusion of the October 1, 1985,
Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the members felt a site
visit would be necessary before they took final action on this
item. A site visit had been scheduled, for Planning and Zoning
Commission members and all interested parties, for October 14,
1985, at 5:30 p.m. The item would then be placed on the October
15, 1985, Commission meeting agenda for final action.
Mr. Wood recommended that Council hold a public hearing, for
comment, then continue the public hearing to the October 22, 1985,
Council meeting.
The Mayor opened the meeting for public hearing.
Mauri Nottingham, owner of the property immediately north of the
Eagle River and facing the proposed service station property,
approached the Council. He stated that he found the concept, as
it was currently being presented, entirely unacceptable. He based
this on the fact that he has 5 acres of proposed residential land,
and he felt that the design of the station did not take the view
impact on the neighborhood into consideration. Mr. Nottingham was
concerned about the considerable amount of fill that rises up off
the bank of the Eagle River, approximately 30' from the bank. He
stated the fill at the deepest point would be 12' or less. He was
also concerned about the lights that would shine from the station,
directly across from him. He felt the proposed station did not
fit with the concept of the Avon Master Plan. Mr. Nottingham was
concerned about the impact on the value of his property. He
stated he had contacted Eric Edeen, County Health Officer, to see
if Mr. Edeen was aware of the proposed service station. Mr. Edeen
was not aware of the project, and felt there was no need for
another station along the river. There was concern about gas tank
leakage into the river.
The Mayor thanked Mr. Nottingham for his comments.
Gary Tricarico, the proposed developer, representing Avon Trader,
Inc., approached the Council. He stated that the proposed project
was not just a gas station, but would be a commercial center that
would offer several different community-oriented services not
presently located in the area. He stated that the project does
conform with the Master Plan of Avon; it provides a park area,
recreation area, and bike path, as well as a full-service station.
He stated that the land fill was being reviewed by the Planning
and Zoning Commission, and a good horticulture cover, exceeding
what presently exists, was being included. Immediately adjacent
to what would be filled would be a 50' to 60' bank, rising off the
river to the property immediately east of his location. As far as
the possible environmental impact on the river, Mr. Tricarico
stated there were facilities and gas tanks immediately adjacent to
the Eagle River up and down the valley. He stated that the tanks
would be installed pursuant to Colorado regulations. These
regulations observe, maintain, and control how the tanks would be
installed. The tanks would have leak detectors and are
fiberglass. He stated that a great deal of expense has gone into
assuring that a leak-type situation would not develop, but he
could not guarantee that such a thing would not happen. As far as
surrounding property values were concerned, he stated that the
property of immediate concern was appraised in 1984, before any
activity began, in the amount of $180,000. The down-lighting for
the project would be done, as required by Town Code.
Councilman Connell was concerned that the architect's name was on
the plans, but the architect was not even being used. He felt
there could be some legal implications due to the fact that Mr.
Trout's name was still on the plans.
-2-

Mr. Tricarico stated that Mr. Trout could not supply the necessary
documents in a timely fashion, so he changed architects. He
stated that the actual drawings that would be submitted to the
Town for structural detail review would be, and are, stamped by a
registered engineer and architect..
Councilman Miller was concerned about the excavating activity on
the site.
Mr. Tricarico stated that he did have a permit from the State
Highway Department to cut in an access to the land. He stated he
had direction from the Planning and Zoning Commission, and the
Commission has given final approval, even though the project was
to be re-reviewed. He stated that they were moving ground and
removing trees so they could store the equipment being used to cut
in the access. He stated he was not worried about the County
Health Officer's concerns regarding the impact on the river.
The Town Attorney stated that there were no requirements stating
that the Health Officer would have to approve such a project.
Councilman Watkins stated that he had not seen a Master Plan for
the White Property. Mr. Tricarico stated he had presented the
plan at the last Council meeting. He stated that the building
looks basically the same on the north side as it does on the south
side.
Councilman Miller asked if there was anyone involved in the
project that could guarantee there would be no spillage from the
tanks into the river.
Mr. Tricarico stated he did not think anyone, in any circumstance,
could make such a guarantee. He stated that a lot of precautions
would be taken to try and prevent such a happening. The gasoline
tanks would be located 100 feet from the river, and would be
elevated more than 50 feet above the river.
Councilman Miller stated he was not against a full-service station
but, if something were to happen, Avon could not buy another water
supply.
Mr. Tricarico stated that the EPA (Environmental Protection
Agency) did not deem the project a hazard.
Councilman Connell moved to table Ordinance No. 85-18, Series of
1985, until the Planning and Zoning Commission has had a chance to
research it further. The motion was seconded by A.J. Wells.
Councilman Wells suggested that the County Health Officer be asked
to look at the project and give an opinion to Council and the P&Z
as to whether it was a health hazard, and he suggested asking the
Planning and Zoning Commission to hear the opinion along with the
other input. He stated that, if the project does not go ahead,
Mr. Tricarico does not have to buy the land.
Councilman Wells stated that, at the last meeting, Mr. Tricarico
stated he had a commitment for financing but, the next day, Mr.
Wells was informed that Mr. Tricarico was out asking a bank for a

loan.
Mr. Tricarico stated there was nothing unusual about continually
asking banks for commitments. He stated he had a commitment, but
that did not mean he had to use that commitment. He stated that
all banks come up with different point systems, different interest
rates, pay backs, etc. He reiterated that he had a commitment.
Councilman Wells asked who the commitment was from.
Mr. Tricarico stated he felt that was his personal business, but
he stated he would be happy to present the letter to Council, in
private, if so desired.
The Mayor asked for a vote on the motion to table. The motion to
table Ordinance No. 85-18 was carried unanimously.
The Mayor thanked Mr. Tricarico for coming.
Second reading of Ordinance No. 85-17, Series of 1985, AN
ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR THE AMENDMENT OF THE ZONING CODE OF THE
TOWN OF AVON BY THE AMENDMENT OF THE TOWN OF AVON ZONING DISTRICT
MAP AND BY THE AMENDMENT OF ORDINANCE 81-35 ESTABLISHING THE SWIFT
GULCH ADDITION TO THE TOWN OF AVON AS A SPECIALLY PLANNED AREA.
Be it noted that A.J. Wells and Mayor Allan Nottingham stepped
down due to conflict of interest
The Mayor Pro Tem then proceeded.
. This was a public hearing.
Norm Wood stated that, on August 15, 1985, the Planning and Zoning
Commission held a public hearing on the request for a SPA
Development Plan to include the easterly 1.36 acres of Tract Y,
Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek, with the Swift Gulch Addition
SPA Area. At the conclusion of the hearing, it was agreed that
the Plan Amendment did conform with the working goals and the
Development Plan. Mr. Wood recommended that Council approve the
requested change.
The Mayor Pro Tem opened the public hearing. There being no one
wishing to be heard, the Mayor Pro Tem closed the public hearing.
Steve Miller moved approval of Ordinance No. 85-17, Series of
1985, on second reading. The motion was seconded by Clint
Watkins.
Discussion followed.
Mr. Watkins stated there had been discussion, some time back,
regarding provisions to protect the trees in that area.
Mr. Wood stated that those provisions were included in the
Preliminary Plat approval.
Council members voting "aye" on the motion were Clint Watkins,
Steve Miller, Al Connell, and Don Buick. There were no "nay"
votes. The motion carried, with Allan Nottingham and A.J. Wells
abstaining.

Resolution No. 85-33, Series of 1985, A RESOLUTION GRANTING A
SPECIAL REVIEW USE FOR THE TRANSFER OF ONE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
RIGHT FROM BENCHMARK AT BEAVER CREEK UNASSIGNED UNIT POOL TO UNIT
401, BUCK CREEK PLAZA CONDOMINIUMS, LOT 72, BLOCK 2, BENCHMARK AT
BEAVER CREEK.
Be it noted that Mayor Nottingham and A.J. Wells stepped down due
to conflict of interest.
Norm Wood stated that an application was filed with the Planning
and Zoning Commission for a Special Review Use to transfer one
Development Right, from the Benchmark at Beaver Creek unassigned
unit pool, to unit 401, Buck Creek Plaza Condominiums, Lot 72,
Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek. He stated that, at the
conclusion of the review and public hearing, the Planning and
Zoning Commission found the request to be in conformance with the
requirements of the Zoning Code, found it to be consistent with
the objectives and purposes of the Zoning Districts, and found it
to be compatible with the surrounding land uses in the area. Mr.
Wood recommended that Council approve the Special Review Use
request for the Development Right transfer. The unit was being
transferred from the unassigned unit pool. He stated that, when
the Town was incorporated, 100 units were approved that were not
assigned to any specific tracts. At this time, there are 5
floating units in that unassigned pool.
Councilman Watkins was concerned about the 5 unassigned units in
the pool, and wondered if the Town's ordinances require the units
to be designated to property. The Town Attorney stated the
ordinances were structured so that all transferable density units
relate to specific pieces of property. He stated there was
nothing written in the ordinances to require any unassigned units
be forthwith assigned; there was no obligation to do so.
Councilman Connell suggested that Benchmark assign the remaining
four units as soon as they can. The Town Attorney stated that
Council should keep in mind that Benchmark was the developer,
Benchmark platted the area, and Benchmark withheld those units.
Clint Watkins moved approval of Resolution No. 85-33, Series of
1985. The motion was seconded by Steve Miller, and was carried
with Allan Nottingham and A.J. Wells abstaining.
Mayor Nottingham and Councilman Wells resumed their seats.
The Town Attorney stated that a bill from Stan Damas was included
in the Accounts Payable. This bill was regarding representation
of Richard Blodgett in connection with the police officers' suit
against the Town. He stated that the bill was provided for
information purposes only, and was not intended to be submitted
for payment. It had been forwarded to the insurance company.

Ordinance No. 85-19, Series of 1985, AN ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR
THE AMENDMENT OF THE ZONING DISTRICT MAP OF THE TOWN OF AVON BY
THE INCLUSION OF CERTAIN DESCRIBED LAND IN THE RESIDENTIAL HIGH
DENSITY COMMERCIAL ZONE DISTRICT.
This ordinance was placed on the agenda for discussion.
Dennis Cole, attorney for Falcon Pointe, approached the Council.
He stated he would like to discuss their request with Council.
He stated that the ordinance that was currently on the agenda
would amend a portion of the Zoning Code to allow a Special Review
Use in the RHLD (Residential High Low Density) Zone District.
Earlier in the day, he had delivered a different ordinance to the
Town that reflected their original request and application to the
Planning and Zoning Commission. The original application
requested the rezoning of lots 45 & 46, Block 2, Benchmark at
Beaver Creek, from RHLD to RHDC (Residential High Density
Commercial). Mr. Cole stated they would appreciate Council
considering this discussion as being toward the second ordinance.
Mark Mitchell, Project Director for Falcon Pointe, approached the
Council. Mr. Mitchell presented a narrative regarding the
proposed conversion to time-share at Falcon Pointe. He stated he
represented the Wynn Group, the current owner of the building, and
stated they were working with Columbia Savings and Loan, out of
Denver, the current lender for the project. Mr. Mitchell was
requesting a zone change for Lot 45, the lot on which Falcon
is, and Lot 46, the lot adjacent to Falcon Pointe to the east,
from RHLD to RHDC. The intent behind the change to RHDC was that
RHDC allows for time-share as a Special Review Use. If the
ordinance was passed on first reading, it would allow them to
proceed to the October 15th meeting of the Planning and Zoning
Commission to work on the Special Review Use. They would then
come back to the Council, on October 22, 1985, for public hearing
on the ordinance and on the Special Review Use. Mr. Mitchell
continued with his narrative, discussing adjacent projects and
existing uses, occupancy figures, bus system impact, employment
impact, tax and recreation revenues, and real estate transfer tax
(time-share sales only/See attached memorandum dated October 8,
1985).
Councilman Watkins stated that RHDC allowed uses are naturally
commercial, and one of the specifically mentioned commercial uses
is automotive service stations.
Mr. Mitchell stated he could assure Mr. Watkins that their project
would not have that type, or any other type of commercial use. He
stated theirs would be a front-desk type of operation, they do
not have the space for any sort of commercial operation.
Councilwoman Davis asked if the uses could be limited to "Limited
Commercial" under a Special Review Use.
-6-
i •
The Town Attorney stated that it could be accomplished in some
way, possibly by creating a new zone district.
There was discussion regarding concern over road impact.
Charles Gersbach, member of the Planning and Zoning Commission and
a Real Estate Broker, approached the Council. He stated that the
Planning and Zoning Commission denied the request because they
feel there is enough time-share in Avon already. He stated that
the Town does not really have any more than one time-share project
and, as a real estate broker, he did not see any in the future.
Discussion followed.
At this point, the Town Attorney recommended that Council not
proceed any further with discussion of the ordinance, pursuant to
the amendment provision of the Town's Code, to the effect that
whenever Council has set a public hearing to review an application
by a private landowner for changes in the text of a zoning code or
zoning district map, the applicant and all interested parties must
be given an opportunity to be heard, and to present and rebut
evidence. He stated that, if Council was going to receive
comments and evidence at this time, before notice was published,
they could be jeopardizing their record.
Council agreed to consider the ordinance on first reading, so they
could proceed.
Councilman Buick wanted to know what the emergency was to pass on
first reading right away.
Mr. Cole stated that Resort America Corporation/Christie Lodge
Association, Ltd., anticipates selling the last time-share unit at
the Christie Lodge in December or January. He stated it was
crucial that additional inventory be available at that time to
keep Avon's marketing program going. He stated that Falcon Pointe
was the only project that could conceivably be ready in January,
and that would be based upon receiving approval on the time
schedule, so they would know where they stand.
Lengthy discussion followed.
B.C. Rumsey, owner of 3-1/2 units in Beaver Creek West and also on
the Beaver Creek West Board of Directors, approached the Council.
He stated that one issue behind opposition of the project was the
type of advertising and publicity that comes from a time-share
project. Another issue was the the zone change on Lots 45 & 46.
He was concerned about why the project's proponents were
interested in including Lot 46 in their request. He stated that
Lots 45 & 46 were originally meant to be a part of Beaver Creek
West, before the financial times caught up with the developer and
forced them to go their separate ways. He stated that Lot 46 is a
vacant lot. Mr. Rumsey stated that, in 1978-79, Avon was far
superior to Vail, Snowmass, and Aspen. He felt the planning was
well done, the parking adequate, and felt a good foundation for
Avon was in place. He stated that Avon was a good quality resort
-7-
0 6
area. He stated he did not think time-share had been anticipated.
He did not think a situation where 56 of 124 units voted not to
allow time-sharing at Falcon Pointe should be ignored. He stated
that Beaver Creek West has taken care of the roads, winter and
summer, without any help from Falcon Pointe. Mr. Rumsey again
mentioned the bad publicity with regard to time-share. He stated
the market would dictate whether time-share would be a good thing
for Avon.
Councilman Wells stated that Falcon Pointe could not sell their
3-bedroom units.
Mr. Rumsey stated that they had not tried to sell them.
Mr. Mitchell stated they had done a market research that indicated
there was no market for 3-bedroom units, and the price per square
foot they would receive would not be an appropriate solution for
their problem. They would need $100 per square foot as the asking
price, and $90 per sq. ft. for the open sales price.
Pat Montgomery, with Ski and Shore Real Estate, approached the
Council. He was very concerned about the statements made about
time-sharing and the bad publicity. He stated he had no financial
interest in Falcon Pointe, but was involved in the Christie Lodge
time-share project. At this point, he was the broker in charge of
the sales staff of the single most successful time-share marketing
program ever in the United States. He stated he was speaking in
defense of the 12,000 owners at Christie Lodge that ride the
buses, eat in the restaurants, visit the shops, rent the skis, and
support the operations of Avon. He stated that all the bad
publicity was untrue.
After discussion, the Mayor thanked Mr. Montgomery for his
comments.
Jim Comerford, owner of the Country Store and Western Sun Sports,
approached the Council. He stated his livelihood depended on the
success or failure of time-share in the Christie Lodge.
Council discussed the possibility of a Use Variance for the
project, and further discussed a zone change, an amendment to the
zone change, and spot-zoning.
After further discussion, A.J. Wells moved approval of Ordinance
No. 85-19, Series of 1985, on first reading, specifically so
Council could get to the public hearing stage and hear all the
pros and cons in an official public hearing on the matter. The
motion was seconded by Sheila Davis.
Councilman Watkins stated he would rather see Council amend the
RHLD Zone to allow time-sharing as a Special Review Use.
Councilwoman Davis disagreed.
Discussion followed.
The Mayor requested that the parties involved, both pro and con,
get together and try to reach some sort of a compromise.
The Mayor called for a roll call vote. Councilmembers voting
"aye" were A.J. Wells, Al Connell, Sheila Davis, and Steve Miller.
Councilmembers voting "nay" were Clint Watkins and Don Buick. The
motion carried by a 4 to 2 vote.

The Town Manager stated that Council may want to consider
implementing the Code's revenue increase in the 1986 budget. He
stated he had come up with an estimate that could generate $50,000
to $100,000 off the time-share project at Christie Lodge if the
recreational amenities fees were raised from 1/4% to 1%. He
stated that the ordinance before Council would do that.

Town Council Members
Town of Avon
Avon, Colorado 81620
Town Council Members:
Lot 45 (Falcon Pointe Lodge) and Lot 46 (undeveloped), Block
2, Benchmark Subdivision have applied for a change in zoning
from Residential High and Low Density (RHLD) to Residential
High Density and Commercial (RHDC). Zoning definitions are
attached. Lot 45 (Falcon Point Lodge) has concurrently
applied for a Special Review Use to permit timeshare
ownership. It is our belief that this proposed use of Falcon
Pointe Lodge is consistent with surrounding uses and the new
Avon Master Plan, hence supporting approval of the requested
zone change and Special Review Use.
In reviewing the Town of Avon Master Plan, prepared by Jim
Lamont, it is apparent that Falcon.Pointe is located within
an area (District 3) that specifically states as a goal to
"Encourage the inclusion of short and long term residential
uses..." The Master Plan also spells out the need to
"Establish residential and Lodging uses..." in District 3.
It would appear the timesharing of Falcon Pointe falls within
these parameters and that the proposed use would complement
the development of varying term accomodations in this area.
We believe it can be agreed that except for the form of
ownership and slightly higher occupancy rates, a timeshare
resort and a lodge or hotel are similar operations.
The Master Plan also suggests "encouraging compatible uses to
develop around the perimeter of Distict 2. This district is
zoned Town Center (TC) and abuts Lots 45 and 46 to the East.
The "lodge atmosphere" and "residential feel" of Falcon
Pointe would seem to be an appropriate buffer for this area
around the perimeter of District 2.
Falcon Pointe Lodge is adjacent to Beaver Creek West/Avon
Lake Villas, which currently have approximately three-fourths
of their 124 units available for short-term rentals. Other
existing and proposed projects in the immediate area include:

These projects are all.much larger and higher in density, yet
they are all within close proximity to Falcon Pointe Lodge.
It seems appropriate that a project the size and scope of
Falcon Pointe would lie between these higher density projects
to the East and the lower density projects to the West.
It should be noted that while the total number of units is
increasing from 31 units to 59 units,.the total number of
bedrooms is decreasing from 90 bedrooms to 59 bedrooms. This
actually decreases the capacity of the building. It is our
understanding that the fractionalization system was adopted
to address these types of.density issues.
As our research indicates, the impacts associated with a
change in use of Falcon Pointe Lodge are minimal, while the
advantages with regard to tax and fee revenues and increased
employment are substantial. The attached charts show that
there is not a considerable increase in total occupants
during peak times. Consequently, there is also only a minor
increase in usage of the bus system, which should be
serviceable by the two bus stops currently within easy
walking distance of Falcon Pointe.
Town Council Members

The revenues generated through transfer taxes, recreation
fees and sales taxes are obviously considerable. The
benefits to the community can also be measured in terms of
increased activity in area restaurants and shops.
In summary, it is our opinion that converting Falcon Pointe
Lodge to a timeshare form of ownership is consistent with the
Town of Avon Master Plan and the existing and proposed
surrounding developments. We also believe the entire Avon
community will benefit substantially from this proposal.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Mark P. Mitchell
