CWPMA Note – If you are an operator or a small grocery serving a location in Vail Village (not the town of Vail but this subset) this is going to apply to you. Vail Passed an ordinance that requires generally all shippers to use these loading docks where a third party contractor is going to handle the delivery from there out. In speaking to the Commander Kenney who is instating the program. There are not any gas stations or service stations/Garages in Vail Village and is there are facilities with emergency power generation those deliveries would still be allowed. If the load is hazardous then that delivery would still be allowed though a permit could be required…. See below for the notice. The ordinance is generally unclear on who accepts liability for third party deliveries. Importantly for operators who take alcohol deliveries the chief has told me they are in compliance and that shippers are required to have a registered permit per the below.

The Town of Vail’s loading and delivery regulations in Vail Village and Lionshead have been adopted to increase the safety of pedestrians, improve the guest experience, and reduce environmental impacts caused by vehicular traffic in pedestrian mall areas.
The E-Vail Courier Program is a delivery system that addresses these issues and provides for the coordinated and efficient delivery of commercial goods in Vail Village. The program includes use of electric carts to make deliveries from the Mountain Plaza loading dock to storefronts in Vail Village’s pedestrian area while strictly limiting access by other vehicles.
As part of this program, delivery vehicles are no longer allowed in the pedestrian areas of Vail Village and Lionshead with few exceptions. Delivery access is through loading docks at Arrabelle, Four Seasons, Mountain Plaza, One Willow, Sebastian and Solaris.
Loading Dock Permits
All delivery companies that serve businesses in Vail Village and Lionshead, with few exceptions, are required to obtain a loading dock permit. Delivery access via the loading docks at Arrabelle, Four Seasons, Mountain Plaza, One Willow, Sebastian and Solaris will not be allowed without a dock permit. Permit fees are calculated annually beginning in October and are prorated on a monthly basis. The tiered fee system is based on several factors such as number of delivery days per week, number of delivery locations in Lionshead and Vail Village, time needed at the dock for delivery, and the size of the truck. This ensures the dock permit fees are representative of the business. The issuance and maintenance of a permit are subject to compliance with the code of conduct and dock regulations.
The permitting process also requires delivery companies to sign up at www.opendock.com. Open Dock allows for scheduling, tracking and coordination of deliveries from the Mountain Plaza loading dock.
Loading dock hours of operation are from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily. Contact 106West, the town’s contractor for dock operations, at 970-754-DOCK (3625) or at jason@106west.co for deliveries outside of those times.
In addition, liquor and beer delivery companies will need to apply for a permit through the state. Contact Code Enforcement at 970-479-2201; or 106West at 970-754-DOCK (3625) or at jason@106West.co to start this process as soon as possible, as this permit can take a little longer.
