PRESENTER(S):   Greg Hall, Director of Public Works

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:  

Provide direction to the staff regarding the recommended summer 2019 Parking plan to include:

 

  • Direct staff to continue the paid overnight fee structure put in place last summer for the summer 2018 as outlined above.




BACKGROUND:  

The Vail Parking & Transportation Task Force met on February 8, 2019 to review statistics from the summer 2018 season as well as make recommendations for the summer 2019 parking program.

 

The Vail Parking & Transportation Task Force makes the following recommendations:  


Continue the same $25 overnight parking program in the Vail Village and Lionshead parking structures as last summer with the addition of promoting the benefits and availability of the Red Sandstone Garage. Free overnight use at Red Sandstone would be available, but would be monitored for vehicle storage issues. The Task Force also recommends maintaining the exemptions described above which were offered in 2018.



STAFF RECOMMENDATION:   Staff recommends the Town Council approve the Parking and Transportation Task Force recommendations for the summer 2019 Parking Program.
