Public Hearings
Ordinance No. 5, Series of 2023, Second Reading, An Ordinance Adding a New Chapter 15 to Title 4 of the Vail Town Code, to Regulate Private Security Guards and Private Security Employers
Approve, approve with amendments, or deny Ordinance No. 5, Series of 2023 upon second reading.
The State of Colorado does not have a regulatory agency that provides oversight of security companies, security guards, or training requirements for security staff. Large metropolitan areas have created their own regulations to govern security companies and security guards with a good deal of success. Until recently, there has not been any need for these regulations in Vail. The increased presence of armed security personnel in Vail along with several incidents have caused concern for unregulated security. The Vail Police Department is requesting an ordinance for oversight and regulation of security companies that work in Vail.
