Zoning Neighborhood Commercial
Prepared By David McWilliams, Town Planer
Introduction
The Applicant, Dominic Mauriello, on behalf of the owners of the Northside Kitchen submitted a
variance application (the proposal) to allow a reduction in landscaping area to accommodate a
new deck and expansion of the restaurant space on the southern side. The Variance request is
being reviewed concurrently with the Minor Development Plan Applicant pursuant to the
Development Code. The Applicant is requesting a Variance from Development Code Table § 7.20.-
7, which requires 20% minimum landscaped area in the Neighborhood Commercial zone district.
Site History
Lot 67 is zoned Neighborhood Commercial. It was developed as a restaurant, and met all
applicable Town regulations when built. The 20% landscaping area requirement was met on three
sides: the north, west, and south, and measured approximately 20.9% of the lot area. Its siting
required a continual interface with the adjacent gas station lot to the east, with no landscape
buffer, and a continual drive isle between the two properties. Also unique to the property,
roughly 5% of its total area is included as an easement in the road surface of Nottingham Road.

In 2012, the property owners petitioned to construct additional parking on an adjacent lot, Lot 4,
which is owned by the Town. In this process, landscaping area was lost. Lot 67’s landscaping area
was reduced to roughly 17.8% of the lot. The 2012 review did not include accounting of the change
in landscaped area.
Variance Request
The applicant is now requesting a (further) reduction in landscaping from the current 17.8% to
13.8% of total area. This change would accommodate the construction of various improvements
on the property, detailed in the Minor Development Review section, below. The application
proposes adding Landscape Units (LUs) on Lot 67, Lot 4, and on Town right-of-way at Swift Gulch
Road. Exhibit C shows the current landscaping on the properties, and the proposed changes.
Below is a table illustrating the changes over the years and the variance proposal.

Process
The Planning and Zoning Commission (“PZC”) will review the Application and conduct a public
hearing on April 18, 2017. After reviewing the Application materials, Staff’s analysis, and
considering public input, the PZC will make a final determination with written findings and
record of decision.
Purpose
In order to prevent or to lessen such practical difficulties and unnecessary physical hardships
inconsistent with the objectives of the Development Code as would result from strict or literal
interpretation and enforcement, variances from certain regulations may be granted. A practical
difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship may result from the size, shape or dimensions of a site
or the location of existing structures thereon; from topographic or physical conditions on the site
or in the immediate vicinity; or from other physical limitations, street locations or traffic conditions
in the immediate vicinity. Cost or inconvenience to the applicant of strict or literal compliance with
a regulation shall not be a reason for granting a variance.
Review Criteria
The PZC shall use the following review criteria as the basis for a decision on an application for a
variance:
April 18, 2017 Planning and Zoning Meeting
VAR17001 and MNR17010
3
(1)The degree to which relief from the strict or literal interpretation and enforcements of a
specified regulation is necessary to achieve compatibility and uniformity of treatment among sites
in the vicinity or to attain the objectives of the Development Code without grant of special
privilege;
Staff Response: The degree of relief can be quantified as a 4% total reduction from existing
landscaping area, or a 6.8% reduction from current standards. While the Northside property was
built since the adoption of the 2010 Development Code adoption, the siting and landscaping
regime generally follows the original design and do not contain defined drive isles and landscape
buffering from the adjacent gas station property. This contiguous paved area, appropriate for
auto-centric uses, limited landscaping area and locations. While the Development Code verbiage
has not changed, a new focus on four sided design and engagement with the street edge have
emerged. The proposed modifications have an overall positive impact on these grounds.
(2)The effect of the requested variance on light and air, distribution of population, transportation
and traffic facilities, public facilities and utilities and public safety;
Staff Response: The proposal will have negligible effects on these factors. Of note is the
necessity to move a light pole and a fire hydrant from their current locations. Snow storage and
sidewalk snow removal may be more complicated, and is the purview of the applicants to keep
clear. The applicant is aware of the need to relocate them, and will work with staff at Avon and
the Fire District if the variance is approved. An initial proposal is included in the landscaping plan,
Exhibit C, and shows the hydrant to the west and the street light to the east.
(3)Such other factors and criteria related to the subject property, proposed development or
variance request as the decision-making body deems applicable to the proposed variance.
Staff Response: Staff does not foresee other factor or criteria related to the subject property,
however, Staff recommends that the Planning Commission discuss whether there are other
factors related to this particular property when making findings and a decision on this application.
Findings Required
According to Section 7.16.110(d) of the Avon Municipal Code, the Planning & Zoning Commission
shall make the following written findings before granting a variance:
1. That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent
with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district;
2. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare
or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity;
3. That the variance is warranted for one (1) or more of the following reasons:
i. The strict, literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the
objectives of the Development Code;
ii. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the
site of the variance that do not apply generally to other properties in the same zone; or
iii. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the
April 18, 2017 Planning and Zoning Meeting
VAR17001 and MNR17010

same zone district.
Staff Response
Granting of this variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the
limitations on other properties due to the special site features of this property, as detailed in the
next paragraphs. The variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or
materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
Granting this variance will help alleviate extraordinary circumstances applicable to this
site that generally does not apply to other properties in the same zone. Few
properties have a large portion of their land occupied by a public street, which limits where and
how landscaping can fit. This building is set back roughly 24 feet from the property line, which
would normally exceed the maximum setback for the Neighborhood Commercial zone district, due
to the lot lines.
Furthermore, the property is bound by the relationship with the adjoining gas station. While the
proposal deviates from an auto-oriented design of the property, the lack of landscaping on the
east side presents another extraordinary circumstance that is not avoidable, and does not apply to
other properties in the area.
Minor Development Plan
The proposed addition to the Northside Kitchen would include a new covered deck and a new
corner to the southeast corner. This would effectively “square off” the building, and wrap the
existing deck on the east around to the south. The proposal adds 114 square feet to the building
and the deck adds an additional 652 square feet. The proposed improvements are found in
Exhibit C of attached documents.
Development Standards
Section 7.28.090 addresses development standards, and staff selected applicable standards for
the PZC’s review.
(c) Generally Applicable Design Standards
(3) Building Materials and Colors:
(i) The use of high quality, durable building materials is required. Exterior walls shall be
finished with materials used in a manner sympathetic to the scale and architectural
style of the building.
(ii) Preferred materials reflect the Town's sub-alpine character such as native stone, wood
siding, masonry or timbers.
(iii) Indigenous natural or earth tones, such as brown, tan, grey, green, blue or red, in
muted, flat colors with an LRV (Light Reflective Value) of sixty (60) or less are required.
Staff Response: The proposed materials are quality, and include elements that adhere to Avon’s
character. All colors have a LRV lower than 60.
April 18, 2017 Planning and Zoning Meeting
VAR17001 and MNR17010

(4) Roofs:
(i) Pitched roofs, particularly those located over building entrances, shall be oriented such
that excessive snow and ice does not accumulate over or drop onto pedestrian
walkways, parking areas or drives. Special protection, such as snow fences, shall be
required for roofs so oriented.
(5) Weather Protection for Pedestrian Areas:
(B) Sheltering roofs or building projections for protection from rain, wind, snow and ice shall
be provided in areas of pedestrian activity around public/ institutional, commercial and mixed-use
buildings, including sheltered entranceways at major entrances and pedestrian-oriented façades
along public sidewalks or walkways.
Staff Response: The current roof forms will be maintained and the 2:12 deck roof will be extended
to the south side. No negative impacts to pedestrians are anticipated.
(j) Mixed-Use and Nonresidential Design Standards
(4) Building Layout and Design:
(i) Building design shall be appropriate to the site and a positive element in the
architectural character of Avon. Without prescribing a specific architectural style or
organization, buildings should provide a sense of proportion and visual balance.
(ii) Four-sided Design. The rear and side elevations of new buildings that are visible from
public spaces and adjacent buildings shall be designed with equal care and quality as
the front or principal face. If a blank wall cannot be avoided, it shall be detailed,
painted or landscaped in a manner that renders the wall attractive to pedestrians.
(vii) Storefronts and Pedestrian Entrances
(A) The first floor of all new buildings shall provide: a pedestrian-friendly environment, with
human-scale and natural building materials; extensive storefront windows for display and
views into the business; and access directly from adjacent sidewalks.
(F) In order to ensure that building entrances are welcoming to pedestrians, easily identifiable
and accessible from streets and sidewalks, primary entries shall be clearly visible from the
street and accentuated from the overall building facade by:
(1) Differentiated roof, awning or portico;
(2) Covered walkways or arcades;
(3) Projecting or recessed entries from the surrounding building facade;
(4) Detailed doors and doorways with transoms, sidelights, trim details and/or framing;
(5) Windows within doorways equivalent in size to fifty percent (50%) of door surface area;
and
(6) Decorative nighttime lighting where appropriate.
Staff Response: The proposal creates a more balanced and accessible building, more properly
utilizing the street edge. The design responds well to its location (southern facing deck with a
view) and to the greater Avon context. This proposal moves the structure towards a four sided
design. It enhances the human-scale of the building and makes the property more inviting to
pedestrians.
