160 West Beaver Creek Boulevard
Sheraton Mountain Vista Phase 113
Applicant: OZ Architecture
Ruth Borne, Community Development Director, made the staff presentation. Ms. Borne
reviewed the staff recommendation, including the proposed conditions. The applicant
presented a number of drawings and the Commission looked over the drawings and
asked a few questions of the applicant.
Commissioner Wolfe asked staff about the concerns regarding the entryway. The
applicant said the colored elevations were correct, and the stone did not go all the way
to the top. It goes only to the wainscot and returns to stucco, just as on the current
buildings. Greg Barrows, representing the applicant, said he concurs with all staff
recommendations on the final design. He asked specifically about compliance with
condition number three, regarding the need to issue a building permit at the same time
for both the timeshare and commercial structure: Ms. Borne responded by saying that
this was a condition of the development agreement. Commissioner Sipes asked for a
clarification on the relationship of the stucco and wood detail. The applicant said that it
was on the same plane, only an inch and half off. Commissioner Evans clarified that
any changes made by the applicant must be brought back for approval. The applicant
said that they understood this and would bring any changes or areas that are still under
study back to the Commission. Alexander Sheyket from OZ Architecture reiterated that
he understood the comments and will bring any changes back to the Commission.
Chairman Evans asked for Commission deliberation. Commissioner Wolfe asked about
the temporary windows for connection to Phase 3. Commissioner Karow said the
application meets the design criteria. Commissioner Sipes thanked the applicant for
clarification and work on the project, and asked about the roll up garage door trim. The
applicant said that they could add trim to the front door also, since that represented the
main doorway to the project and should at least have the same treatment as the garage
door. Commissioner Sipes asked about the first color sheet, and requested that they
study the detail of Phase 1 b (North Elevation), specifically about the termination of the
mansard roof above the garage door. Commissioner Smith said she supports the
design as presented. Commissioner McClinton had no comments. Chairman Evans
asked the applicant to submit a few details as discussed for further review, and he also
asked about the Staff recommendation regarding the water feature and why it was not
included. Ms. Borne said it should be included in the list of conditions. Chairman Evans

said that he wanted a condition regarding the changing of materials. Commissioner
Karow recommends approval, adding Condition # 5 which is Condition #2 from the
sketch plan approval —"A total of 374 parking spaces are required in Phase 1 C as
outlined in the PUD approval. Any parking deficiency may result in the reduction of
timeshare units in Phase 1 C at design review" and adds Condition #6: There must not
be any change of materials on the exterior corners. Commissioner Sipes seconds the
motion, and recommends adding Condition #7: 'Trim be added around window
elements under arch element", and Condition #8: "The area on elevation Phase1 B
(North) represented on color drawing A5 immediately left of the garage entrance be
studied further and resubmitted as a detail for separate approval". Motion carries
unanimously.

The Commission opened the public hearing on this application. Mr. Johnson made the
staff presentation. He explained that the neighbor called today and said that they were
fine with the application as long as it remained as operating. He reviewed all the
conditions and asked if there were any questions. Chairman Evans reviewed the
conditions and asked if they were exactly the same as prior, except for the extension of
one year to five years. Mr. Johnson said they were the same conditions.
The hearing was opened for public comments by the Chairman. No comments were
received. Public comment period was closed by Chairman Evans.
Commissioner Wolfe asked for clarification on the five-year and annual review. Mr.
Johnson clarified that the annual review would be done by staff only, and the file would
come back for renewal after five years.
Commissioner Karow made a motion to approve Resolution 02-02 with conditions as
proposed by staff. Commissioner Sipes seconded the motion. Motion carried
unanimously.
B. Lots 18 & 19, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek (6:50pm-7:10pm)
281 Metcalf Road
Walkin The Dog/Doggie Day Care
Applicant: Marisa Cantrell
Mr. Katieb made the staff presentation. He briefly reviewed the proposed conditions,
and had handed out a letter of objection to the proposal from a current tenant of the
building.
Chairman Evans asked why this is a special review use and not a use by right in this
type of zoning district. Mr. Katieb stated that the Zoning Administrator determined that
Minutes of PBZ Meeting

this was a SRU in the IC zone district since it was not specifically called out as a use by
right. Chairman Evans asked what type of use this would be under zoning. Mr. Katieb
clarified that there is no specific category that currently exists for the use other than
what has been applied for and determined to fit within the general character of the zone
district. He explained that once the zoning administrator determined that this use could
be applied for in this zone district, it had to come in as a special review use.
Commissioner Wolfe stated he was concerned that noise may be an issue with the
dogs. Commissioner Sipes said in the IC district noise is expected to a different level
than in other zone districts, especially considering the uses by right.
The applicant, Marisa Cantrell, made a brief presentation. She stated that noise is not
usually an issue. She also described the interior and the preventive measures taken to
prevent any odors or noise from leaving the premises. She said that the noise
generated by an existing woodshop in the building would be far greater than the noise
she expects her business to generate.
Commissioner Wolfe asked if the customers need an appointment. Mrs. Cantrell stated
that there is an interview process and that there will be appointments necessary before
she will accept any dog. Commissioner Wolfe asked about spacing the arrivals. Mrs.
Cantrell stated that she will make times for arrivals and plans to stagger them, possibly
opening earlier so that people on their way to work can drop the dogs off at different
times. Commissioner Wolfe asked how are the animals delivered. Mrs. Cantrell states
that she is going to work on that and would potentially have her staff walk dogs in from
cars to make the drop off and pick up easier. She stated that she understand parking
cannot be an issue, and will ask her customers to comply with the limited parking
available on the site.
The hearing was opened for public comments by the Chairman. No comments were
received. Public comment period was closed by Chairman Evans.
Commissioner Sipes began deliberation saying that the application meets the criteria.
Commissioner Karow agrees. Commissioner Wolfe was concerned about the deliveries
of the dogs. It meets the requirements for SRU, however he is thinking about less than
a one-year review. Commissioner Sipes added that this is different than a residential
area special review use and causes him less concern.
Chairman Evans suggested that the staggered drop off language should not be added.
This meets the guidelines as proposed. Just don't affect the other tenant parking
spaces.
Commissioner Karow made a motion to approve Resolution 02-03 with conditions 1-7
as proposed by staff, deleting condition number three. Commissioner Sipes seconded
the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

Chairman Evans asked what happened to the Phillips 66 lighting violation. Mr. Katieb
described what happened, and discussed the approval of a new lighting program that
complies with the original program issued for Coastal Mart. He said the changes should
take place the week of May 201' and that the Phillips 66 representatives have been very
responsive to correcting the violation.

Elevation revisions
Mr. Katieb reminded the Commissioners that Andy Hill of DOLA will be conducting a
planning commission 'training workshop' from 3:00 to 5:00 on the 21St of May. All
Commissioners said they could be present, with the exception of Commissioner
McClinton.
Commissioner Karow asked what the changes were to the elevations for Petro Hut. Mr.
Katieb stated that the roof forms appear pitched, but is unsure what the pitch is. Also,
the pitched roofs are not considered architectural projections and are now a height
issue at least on the main roof. Commissioner Sipes stated that it appears that the roof
goes all of the way back.
Commissioner Evans said the height appears to be at 39 feet on the main roof with this
type of design. The form and massing is good, but the height is in violation.
Commissioner Karow, states that A3.1 is the only place with the height violation. Mr.
Katieb states that A3.2 also appears over height. Commissioner Sipes says that they
are on the right track, but need to get the height to comply with the zoning requirements.
Commissioner Karow asked about the neon signs at Chapel Square. Mr. Johnson
clarified the use of the signs and the sign program for Chapel Square.
XI. Adjourn (7:20)
Commissioner Sipes motioned to adjourn at 7:20pm. Commissioner Karow seconded
the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
