6.Public Hearings
6.1.Ordinance No. 15, Series of 2018, Second Reading, An Ordinance Amending Section 12-10-17, Leasing of Parking Spaces, Vail Town Code.15 min.
Presenter(s): Chris Neubecker, Planning Manager
Action Requested of Council: Town Council is asked to approve Ordinance No. 15, Series of 2018 on second reading.
Background: The existing regulations on the leasing of parking spaces in the Town of Vail were first adopted in 1977, and the last significant modification was in 1985. The current regulations are obsolete, and have not resulted in significant applications to lease parking spaces. New technology can help to identify vacant, available parking spaces, but the existing regulations needs to be amended to facilitate, and in some cases legalize, short term leasing of parking. The proposed regulations will open additional areas where short term leasing of parking spaces is allowed, while protecting the character of low density residential neighborhoods.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of Ordinance No. 15, Series of 2018 on Second Reading.
6.2.Ordinance No. 16, Series of 2018, Second Reading, An Ordinance Amending Chapter 8 of Title 7 of the Vail Town Code Regarding Low-Speed Electric Vehicles and Golf Cars5 min.

Background: Pursuant to C.R.S. § 42-4-111, the Town is empowered to regulate the operation of low-speed electric vehicles and golf cars within its jurisdiction. Review draft legislation which addresses allowing electric vehicles on town streets.  Several hotels are currently using electric vehicles to transport skis and guests to the mountain.  Topics to consider might include identifying a drop off location as well as identifying which streets would be accessed by these vehicles.
