May 19, 1998 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting
Report date
December 20, 2019
Project type
Single family residence
Legal description
Lot 20, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision
Zoning
PUD-Duplex
Address
5570 Coyote Ridge
Introduction
The proposed Hunn-Kennington residence is an alpine style single-family house with stucco siding, and stone and timber trim. It is located on a moderately sloping (14-16%) southeast-facing
slope. The lot is unusual in that it shares an access easement with Lot 21 (to the east). Rather than using a shared driveway the applicant proposes entering the site directly from
the street, and locating a portion of the driveway switchback within the access easement.
Design Review Considerations
According to the Commission’s Procedures, Rules & Regulations, Section 4.10, the Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project:
The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Zoning Code.
Allowed use: Conforms with the allowed residential use.
Density: Single-family use conforms to this lot’s 2 dwelling unit designation.
Lot Coverage: The proposed 10.8% of building coverage conforms to the 50% maximum.
Setbacks: No proposed encroachments.
Easements: No proposed encroachments; proposed grading in the 10' Slope Maintenance and Snow Storage Easement is acceptable.
Building Height: The largest proposed height of 33.5’ conforms to the 35' maximum.
Grading: One area below the driveway on the north east side of the lot exceeds a 2:1 slope. The applicant has agreed to provide a boulder retaining wall and to reduce the slope to a
maximum of 2:1. The proposed driveway grades conform to Town standards.
Parking: The two garage and four surface parking spaces conform with the required three spaces.
Snow Storage: Submitted plans show snow storage area equal to the minimum standard of 20% of the proposed impermeable surface area.
Landscaping: Submitted landscape plan appears suitable.
Access: the engineering staff recommends the driveway be flared on the east side to provide an intersection closer to a 90 degree angle with the road.
The conformance with other applicable rules and regulations of the Town of Avon.
The type and quality of materials of which the structure is to be constructed.
The design of site grading and drainage to minimize impacts to adjacent sites, rights-of-way and easements.
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 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 objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired.
The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon.
