The applicant has requested input from Community Development, the Engineering Department, and the Planning and Zoning Commissioners on the proposed access scheme to this lot prior to submitting an application for final design approval. The following is a summary of Staff concerns with this project: 1. There does not appear to be adequate evidence that the owner has difficulty with using one access point for both sides of the duplex residence. 2. Section 4.22 (A) of the Design Standards states that "Residential projects with 6 or fewer units shall be restricted to a single point of vehicle access from the public right -of -way. Additional points of access must be approved specifically by the Planning & Zoning Commission with the finding that additional access points are required for the project to otherwise conform to these Design Standards and other applicable Town regulations." 3. The dual driveway causes an increase in site disturbance. This is of particular concern since this lot is situated on a relatively large drainage basin. By constructing the proposed two driveways, there would be an increase in fill material in the drainage areas. 4. There are many other designs for the site that would allow for better access and less visual impact on the site. The single access proposal that was submitted does not fit the single access criteria of not exceeding 24 feet in width. Also, the access separation and hammerhead should be pulled back out of the 10 -foot snow storage and drainage easement. 5. Staff does not find that an additional access point would be required for the project to conform to the Design Standards. By the applicant's own admission, a single access point would serve this project without any undue hardship as a result of the Design Standard requirements. Summary: Staff recommends that the applicant submit a final design for this project that uses only a single access point for both sides of the duplex. We cannot find any compelling rationale for two access points to this lot. The applicant is not restricted in any way by topography or safety constraints to such a degree as to warrant another access point to this project.

Scheme A, with separate driveways, is preferred by both couples. Although the Town has a general rule disallowing separate driveways, we believe it is the best solution for the Town for the following reasons: Scheme A has one garage facing the street and one turned; thereby reducing Garage door impact on the neighborhood. 2. Due to the steep site, the east half Garage elevation is 8580' requiring 4 feet of elevation change. The west half Garage elevation is 8576' requiring between 1 and 3 feet of elevation change depending where the driveway entry is located. Because the driveways require different slopes, they must have separate drive start slopes; thereby requiring a 24' wide entrance in Scheme B. This equals the same amount of driveway frontage; therefore, Scheme A has less overall asphalt impact at the street in one location. 3. Scheme A presents more opportunity to landscape and hide driveway impact on the street. 4. Due to the site location at the very top of the hill, very few cars pass the lot; therefore the driveway entrances have very little "traffic" implications. 5. The driveways are located on the inside corner so there is no visibility problem. 6. When cars are parked in front of the garages, Scheme A will not appear like the parking lot which Scheme B will appear to be. Scheme A's cars will be easier to screen with landscaping than Scheme B. 7. The steep cross slope between the driveways in Scheme B will probably require some boulder walls making it appear more "forced ". 8. The two couples prefer separate driveways; thereby reducing potential confusion and conflict. 9. Although the building is in the same location in both schemes, the building in Scheme B appears closer to the road. 10. Scheme B looks like a duplex, where Scheme A does not.
