Final Design Staff Report
October 21, 1997 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting
Report date
December 20, 2019
Project type
Residential Duplex
Legal description
Lot 105, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision – Rosen Fowler Duplex
Zoning
Planned Unit Development – 2 units
Address
3045 Wildridge Road
Introduction
The proposed duplex features units of approximately 2,100 square feet with large decks and trellis detailing. The exterior material is a cementitious finish system, resembling a hand
trowelled stucco application.
The site slopes steeply (60%) downhill from Wildridge Road to approximately the location of the lot’s 25-foot front yard setback line. From that point, the slope lessens to approximately
17%. The building structure will retain the driveway.
Design Review Considerations
According to the Commission’s Procedures, Rules & Regulations, Section 6.10, the Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project:
Conformance with the Zoning Code and other applicable regulations of the Town.
Setbacks: No proposed encroachments. Care will be required to ensure driveway retaining walls will not exceed four feet in height.
Easements: No proposed encroachments and proposed grading in the 10' Slope Maintenance and Snow Storage Easement is acceptable.
Building Height: The largest scaled height of 34.5 feet on the western unit’s upper ridge conforms with the 35' maximum limit. Care will be required to ensure the ridge is built to designed
height.
Grading: All proposed slope grades conform with the maximum of 2:1 slope guideline and the proposed driveway grades conform with Town standards. It is possible that the driveway location
and proposed grades may conflict with the existing fire hydrant location. Applicants must coordinate with the fire department to ensure the hydrant’s function and serviceability is
not impacted.
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.
Proposed grading will cause drainage to be directed to the southeastern property line, possibly creating a drainage problem with the adjacent property. Potential impacts should be evaluated
and mitigated.
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.
