VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO

ITEM/TOPIC:   Ordinance No. 20, Series of 2018, Second Reading, an ordinance amending Section 5-3-2, Definitions, Vail Town Code, to amend the definition of a certified solid fuel burning device, concerning air pollution control.

PRESENTER(S):   Chris Neubecker, Planning Manager

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:   Town Council shall approve, approve with modifications, or deny Ordinance No. 20, Series of 2018, based on the recommendation of the Community Development Department.

BACKGROUND:   The current Municipal Code detailing Air Pollution Control and the specifications for solid-fuel burning devices (wood burning stoves) is out of date and does not accurately reflect the current Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). The proposed ordinance will ensure that the Vail Town Code aligns with these state and national air quality standards.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:   The Community Development Department recommends amending Title 5, Chapter 3 of the Municipal Code to accurately reflect current and future air quality standards set forth by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE).
