VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO

ITEM/TOPIC:   Permission to Proceed Through the Development Review Process for use of Town of Vail owned property to construct a driveway and retaining walls, located at 4018 Willow Way.

PRESENTER(S):   Chris Neubecker, Planning Manager

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:   The Town Council is asked to review a request to submit development review applications (Design Review Board and Planning and Environmental Commission) for use Town of Vail property for the construction of a driveway and retaining walls in order to access a 45-acre parcel of land which has no frontage on a public right-of-way.

BACKGROUND:   The proposed driveway would facilitate access to, and development on, the 45-acre parcel of undeveloped land, which does not have frontage on a public right-of-way. If this applicant is unable to obtain access through Town property, they will need to seek access from a private property, or through other existing access easements.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:   The Community Development Department recommends that the Vail Town Council deny use of Town property.
