| | | | | | | | ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: The Town Council is requested to consider a proposed update to the 1994 Comprehensive Open Lands Plan, pursuant to Section 12-3-7, Amendment, Vail Town Code.
|
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND: The current Open Lands Plan is 24 years old, and needs updating. The goal of the planning process was to update the 1994 Comprehensive Open Lands Plan to provide a framework for effectively implementing actions to achieve Vail’s goals for the preservation of open lands, the development of trails, and the use of town lands. On April 26, 2018 the Planning and Environmental Commission voted 5-0 to recommend that the Town Council adopt the 2018 Open Lands Plan Update, as presented.
|
| | | | | | | | STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Town Council allow for a presentation on the proposed 2018 Open Lands Plan Update, and take public comment on the Plan. We recommend that the Town Council set a date for future public hearings. Because of the importance of this Plan and based on interest of the community, we ask that the Town Council consider holding more than two hearings on this Plan adoption.
