PUD Staff Report
January 18, 2000 - Planning & Zoning Commission meeting
Report date January 14, 2000
Project type Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Rezoning
Legal description Lot 45, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision
Current Zoning Planned Unit Development (PUD) - Four -plex
Address 2520 Old Trail Road
Introduction
The property is currently zone for a four -plex residence. The applicant is seeking
approval for an amendment to the Wildridge PUD to allow two (2) duplex residences on the site.
The applicant has submitted PUD plans to comply with the Town's policies and procedures.
Attached for your review are 10 items which support the basis for approving the applicant's
proposal.
PUD Review Criteria
1. Conformance with the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan's Goals and Objectives.
Policy A1.3 of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the use of PUDs where it will provide a
benefit to the community and be compatible with surrounding development. This PUD
Amendment will result in a development that is more compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood. The project is located near a Victorian style single - family residence project
known as Canyon Oaks.
2. Conformity and compliance with the overall design theme of the town, the sub -area
design recommendations and design guidelines of the Town.
The project is consistent with the design theme of the Town and will work well with the
adjacent properties by preserving the views from the road and providing more open space
than a four -plex.
3. Design compatibility with the immediate environment, neighborhood, and adjacent
properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer zones,
character, and orientation.
The project is located on a lot with difficult access and has a small swale, which lends itself
to creating two duplex residences on the site. The overall height for this project will be 3'0"
lower than allowed in Wildridge. The units are also limited to a maximum square footage of
3,000. Thus, the project fits well with the site conditions, diminishes site disturbance, takes
advantage of the existing grades, and is designed to fit well within the neighborhood.
4. Identification and mitigation or avoidance of natural and /or geologic hazards that
affect the property upon which the PUD is proposed.
By creating two buildings a swale is created between the two structures which will create a
more scenic view from the road and provide for better drainage.
5. Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to
produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural features,
vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.

Lot 45, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision
January 18, 2000 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 3
The location of the two duplexes will allow more open space, and enhance the views up the
valley rather than impeding them with a large 4 -plex project.
7. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing on and
off site traffic circulation that is compatible with the town transportation plan.
8. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and function.
The project as proposed will reduce the appearance of surface parking. See, Comments
under #4 and #5.
9. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional, and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the PUD. The phasing plan shall
clearly demonstrate that each phase can be workable, functional and efficient without
relying upon completion of future project phases.
10. Adequacy of public services such as sewer, water, schools, transportation systems,
roads, parks, and police and fire protection.
All public services are adequate.
11. That the existing streets and roads are suitable and adequate to carry anticipated
traffic within the proposed PUD and in the vicinity of the proposed PUD.
Traffic will not be increased by two - duplex residences rather than a 4 -plex.
12. Development Standards
The development standards provide for 2 duplex residences consistent and in some areas
more restrictive than the current development standards in Wildridge Subdivision.
Setbacks: the proposed setbacks are consistent with current zoning:
Front: 25'0" along Old Trail Road
Rear: 25'0"
Side: Minimum of 10'0"
Height: The maximum building height will be limited to 32'0 ". Current zoning allows
for 35'0 ".
Density: Four total residences in two buildings
Site Coverage: 12% site coverage — allowed under the current zoning 50% site coverage
Landscaping: 25% of the area will be landscaped.
Parking: Required to have 12 parking spaces, the project will have 16 parking
spaces.
Snow shedding and storage: 20% of the impervious surface is required under current
zoning. The applicant is proposing 20% of the impervious surface for snow storage.
Also, there is an existing snow storage easement, which will allow for significant
pervious snow storage.

WRIGHT DUPLEX
1. Two 2 story, (low -rise) modest duplexes proposed.
2. In a style not used yet in Wildridge, these buildings are a unique Alpine style
well suited to Wildridge,
3. Duplexes will provide a much more appropriate transition between the
Snowberry townhome 4 plex (lot 46 block 2) and four single family Victorians
(lot 43 block 2) than another 3 story 4 plex would.
4. The proposed duplexes are at a modest 29 -foot maximum height. The
average height is an even more modest 23 feet. A three story 4 plex would
continue the visual barrier to the hillside above with ridgelines 33 -34 feet high.
This will be a minimum 120' across - like most other 4- plexes.
5. Buried deeply into the hillside the duplexes appear to be a maximum of
approximately 14 feet tall from the rear.
6. Breaking up the building mass will elevate surrounding property values
instead of devaluing them. The neighbors will be fully supportive of our
modest proposal.
7. The steep hillside behind the two proposed duplexes will drain much better
than a 100' to 140' long monolithic structure. The proposed duplexes allow
runoff to pass between them in a swale.
8. We also cite precedence in support of our proposal. The four Victorians are a
PUD of a 4 plex lot. The three duplexes across Old Trail (lot 89 block 1) are a
PUD of a 6 plex lot.
9. We submit to you that this project actually results in less perceived density
rather than more perceived density dusto the factors cited above.
lo. In summary, our design will complement the neighborhood, address and
minimize drainage problems, help preserve view corridors and will be a
positive addition to Wildridge.

4. The design of site grading and drainage to minimize impacts to adjacent sites, rights -of -way
and easements.
The drainage plan is consistent with Town requirements and minimizes impacts to
adjacent properties.
5. The compatibility of proposed improvements with site topography, to minimize site
disturbance, orient with slope, step building with slope, and minimize benching or other
significant alteration of existing topography.
The project works well with this steep site and the flag lot access.
6. The appearance of proposed improvements as viewed from adjacent and neighboring
properties and public ways, with respect to architectural style, massing, height, orientation to
street, quality of materials, and colors.
The applicant is proposing a low- profile project consisting of two -tone earth colored stucco
with wood accent elements.
7. The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that
monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired.
The project does have very similar architectural elements. Staff encourages the applicant to
revise the plans to create more architectural diversity among the units.
8. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and
Programs for the Town of Avon.
Staff Recommendation
Based upon the project's general compliance with the above considerations, staff recommends
approval with the following condition:
Revise the elevations to include more diversity in the architectural elements for staff
approval.
Recommended Motion
"I move to approve Grandview at Wildridge PUD, Lot 45, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision as
depicted on the plan set dated January 11, 2000, with the following condition:
Revise the elevations to include more diversity in the architectural elements for staff
approval."
