Other Business
Karen Griffith informed Council that she had received a development plan application for
the Folson Tract that is next to Chateau St. Claire (La Piazza). She said it had initially
started out with a 440 foot long, 6 -story building that housed 120 units, she continued,
they had reduced it to a 5 -story building that housed 90 units. Commissioner Railton
stated she had heard that they only had to cut down one tree. Ms. Griffith said they did
not have to disturb a lot of the vegetation. Commissioner Karow asked if the property
would have to be annexed into Avon. Ms. Griffith stated that the property was already in
Avon and zoned PUD, but had no development plans. Chairperson Hunn questioned if

they would have a shared access with Chateau St. Claire. Ms. Griffith said Danny Brose,
who was involved with both the Folson Tract and Chateau St. Claire were checking into
it.
Chairperson Hunn asked if a T.C.O. had been issued to the Vet. Center, because the large
retaining wall was still concrete and not stucco. Mike Matzko said Staff would look at
the plans to determine if stucco was required on the retaining wall because the code did
not require it.
Council also discussed Burger King. Commissioner Railton expressed concern about the
cars in the drive-through that blocked the parking lot entrance/exit. She said the back up
could also affect the shops in the building to the east. Mike Matzko said Staff had
planned to meet with Burger King management to discuss alternatives (i.e., striping,
change service windows, person outside taking orders). Commissioner Karow stated
Burger King got a honorable mention in Vail Daily's best new building of 1996 list.
Mike Matzko said Starbucks was supposed to apply for a tenant finish permit in the
Burger King Shoppette.
Adjourn
Commissioner Karow made a motion to adjourn the meeting. It was seconded by
Commissioner Schneider and the meeting adjourned at 10:15 p.m.
