The town’s economy is largely tourist based and the health of this economy is premised on exemplary service for Vail’s guests. Vail’s ability to provide such service is dependent upon a strong, high quality and consistently available work force. To achieve such a work force, the community must work to provide quality living and working conditions. Availability and affordability of housing plays a critical role in creating quality living and working conditions for the community’s work force. The town recognizes a permanent, year round population plays an important role in sustaining a healthy, viable community. Further, the town recognizes its role in conjunction with the private sector in ensuring housing is available.
