Background:

On August 16, 2022, the Town Council passed revisions to Title 7 of the Vail Town Code related to pedestrian and vehicular circulation in pedestrian malls in the Town. That ordinance established a detailed fee calculation for the assessment of loading dock fees. To promote efficiency and consistency, the Town wishes to remove the detailed fee calculation from the Vail Town Code and instead place such information in the Town's fee schedule, modify the definitions and correct an erroneous reference to the Colorado Municipal Court Rules of Procedure and correct the language allowing High Volume Commercial Carriers into the village. This exemption will only apply to smaller box trucks and not freight vehicles. Freight will be diverted into the loading docks.
