GENERAL DISCRIPTION OF SERVICES

The Town of Vail, Colorado (“Town”) is seeking qualifications from consultants (“Respondents) with land use, zoning, and design code expertise for a comprehensive rewrite of Title 12, Zoning Regulations, and Title 14, Development Standards, Vail Town Code. Title 12 has largely remained in its original form and content since the incorporation of the Town and requires a thorough update to remove inefficient, outdated language that is confusing for users and modernize the code with current practices and processes. Title 14 was added later and contains the town-wide design guidelines and development standards. The structure and framework of both titles require reorganization and modernization to convey the information and metrics contained therein in an easier to access and more understandable format.
