L80 B4 WR conceptTown of Avon
Concept Design Staff Report
September 2, 1997 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting
Report date
December 20, 2019
Project type
Duplex Residence
Legal description
Lot 80, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision – Tanavon Corp.
Zoning
Planned Unit Development (PUD) – 2 units
Address
5711 Wildridge Road East
Introduction
This proposed duplex is the second phase to the duplex constructed on lot 81. Both projects would share a common driveway. The duplex structure runs parallel to the slope, pivoting to
allow only oblique angle views of the garages in the hopes of avoiding what the applicant describes as, “the garage door on the street syndrome”. The new structure would have similar
architectural expressions as the neighboring existing building.
The site is extremely steep, exceeding 40% at its upper portion. Staff is waiting for an updated survey before completing its final review.
Design Review Considerations
The Commission’s Procedures, Rules & Regulations, Section 6.10, provide the framework for evaluation of this project. Additional guidelines and regulations are contained within (but
not limited to) the Comprehensive Plan, the Design Guidelines, the Zoning Ordinance and the Subdivision Regulations.
Conformance with the Zoning Code and other applicable regulations of the Town.
The suitability of the improvement, including type and quality of materials of which it is to be constructed and the site upon which it is to be located.
The compatibility of the design to minimize site impacts to adjacent properties.
The compatibility of the proposed improvements with site topography.
The visual appearance of any proposed improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring properties and public ways.
The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that values, monetary or aesthetic will be impaired.
The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon.
Staff Comments
These are preliminary staff comments on this concept plan, and are not intended to be a complete project report. A complete review and staff comments will be provided with the final
design staff report.
The southern unit will require a third parking space. The applicant has indicated the driveway area between the two units can accommodate this requirement.
Access will need to be maintained along the lower driveway to the existing unit.
