1. Conformity with the Avon Comprehensive Plan, goals, and objectives.
Staff has identiFed some goals and objectives listed in the Comprehensive Plan the
Commission should consider. They are:
Goal Al. Ensure that all laijd uses are located in appropriate locations with
appropriate controls.
Is this an appropriate location for high density residential? Is this use appropriate
for this location?
Goal A3. Upon full development of the community, all land uses should work
together as a balanced system.
Will this land use, in this location, promote a balanced system?

Amendment to PUD
Goal C 1. Provide for an appropriate mix of residential dwelling unit types for both
permanent residents and tourists.
Does this project provide for a mix of residential types?
Goal C2. Affordable housing, both rental and owner occupied, should be made
available through a combination of private and public efforts.
Does the project meet the objective of this goal?
Goal H2. Estabiish the Eagle River as greenbe t corridor through the Town.
Is this being achieved by the dedication of the open space along the Eagle River?
2. Conformity and compliance with the overall design theme of the Tor, to, the sub-
area design recommendations anr. design ,;ridelines adopted by the Town.
This project is in Sub -Area 10, the Riverfront District, and the standards indicated in the
Comprehensive Plan are attached to this Staff report. The main recommendation this
proposal is not in conformance with is to provide for public access to the river and
construction of the pedestrian trail along the river. In addition, the Recreation Master
Pian specifies this path in this location.
J. Design compatibility with the immediate environment, neighborhood, and
adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building height, buffer
zones, character, and orientations.
Existing land uses found in the area are as follows:
North Proposed Boulder PUD, with 150 units approved,
Eaglebeni Apartments, with an existing 240 units
South River Oaks Condominiums;
Folson Property PUD(there is no development plan approved)
West: Undeveloped Lot 2, Riverside Subdivisinn;
Red house at corner of Avon Rd. and HWY. 6/24(commercial)
East: Tract A Open Space,
River Forge Duplexes and apartment complex
Tile overall design, scale, bulk and building height of the buildings fit with the established
character found north of the Eagle River River Oaks Condominiums, southeast of the
site, has a tall character, with facades broken up architecturally The mass of these
buildings are being reduced and broken by stepping the building down on the ends and
providing a break in the middle and on the ends of the buildim;.

4. Uses, activity, and density which provide a compatible, efficient, and workable
relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
The proposed density is 21.6 units per acre, which is lower than the 32.5 units per acre at
the existing Eaglebend apartments. Does the Commission feel this proposal meets the
intent of the above criteria?
S. Identification and mitigation or avoidance of natural and/or geologic hazards
that affect the property upon which the PUD is proposed
The proposal states there will be a construction/erosion control fence placed along the 30'
setback, however the buildings are on the 30' setback, which indicates grading taking
place in the 3W setback and th' may not occur. Further, with the building wall on the
setback, will footings and/or overhangs encroach into the setback?
6. .Sire plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to
produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural feature,
vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.
The applicant is not providing public access to the river, nor are thev providing a
pedestrian path along the river, however, they will be dedicating the area within the 30'
stream setback to the Town of Avon.
Staff is not clear what trees and vegetation will be impacted. The applicant will have the
site staked for the site visit on Tuesday a,id Commission should consider whether or not
the proposed landscape plan mitigates the taking of existing trees.
7. A circulation .system designer! for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing on
and off-site traffic circulation -'hat is compatible with thf Town Transportation Plan.
The circulation for the site is limited by the one access point permuted by the State
H. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in artier to optimize and
preserve natural feature, recreation, views and.function.
Landscaping is called for in the IU' between the parking and HWY. 6./24, this area is also
designated as snow storage. The Commission should focus on the 10' buffer and the
landscape treatment, which can help soften the front facade of the building, which contain
the garages
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT

54 Unit Complex
Amendment to PUD
The applicants will be dedicating the area within the 30' stream setback as open space to
the Town, which will protect the natural feature along the river.
9. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the PUD.
Phasing is not proposed. The project will be built at one time.
10. Adequacy of public services such as sewer, water, schools, transportation
systems, roads parks, and police and fire protection.
Th, deve"toper must provide the Town of Avon letters from the respective agencies
indicating the services can be provided to the project. As a note to the developer, this
project is not located in the Avon Metropolitan District.
11. That the existing streets and roads are suitable and adequate to carry
anticipated traffic within the proposed PUD and in the vicinity of 'lhe proposed PUD.
This project is accessed by HWY. 6/24 and the traffic study conducted and provided
indicates the highway is suitable to carry the added traffic.
SITE PLANI CON tMENTS:
Eagle River: The sit(, plan has the buildings placed on the 30' setback from the mean
annual Hgh water mark. This indicates grading, site disturbance and the footings may be
taking place in the setback, which is not ailowed. Grading and site disturbance must be
confined and kept out of the 30' setback.
Building A and the parking on the west end of the site are proposed on a 3 ,% slope. Fill
will be brought in to even the slope, thereby creating a strong potential for encroachment
into the 30' setback, which is not allowed. This is, also, a vegetated area, w) h the type of
vegetation not known. The-^plicant will be staking the site for the visit on Tuesday.
The developer must address riparian issues, which include wetlands delineaticn on the site
plan, and checking for rapture nesting in the trees.
The site plan does not reflect a pedestrian path which is specified in the Comprehensive
Plan and the Recreation Master Plan. The developer must install the pedestrian path as
specified in the two plans.

Amendment to PUD
Building vocation: The buildings will be located 25' apart from each other. Does this
provide enough of a break in the building facades facing HWY. 6/24? The p-oposed
building locations are pushing the edges of the site.
Drainage: A drainage plan has not been pro, ided for Staff review. The drainage will be
closely considered due to the proximity to the Eagle River.
Site Coverage: The proposal is for 60% site coverage, which is not defined. Staf:' would
like to know if 60% site coverage equates :0 4u% landscaped area, whether it is formal or
natural.
Gradin : There are areas on the site plan showing finished grades exceeding the allowed
2:1 slopes.
Landscape Plan: The Commission should comment on the proposed landscape plan. The
plant list indicates material that does not meet the Town of Avon minimur.t size
requirements. The minimum size requirements are 2 caliper for deciduous trces, 6' high
for cunireroul trees and 5 gallon for shrubs.
Another question to consider is does the landscape plan mitigate removal of existing trees
and vegetation?
Parking: The applicant is requesting a reduction in the parking required for guest spaces.
The plan shows the required amount, however, a reduction in th.- 10 additional guest
spaces is being requested. Staff is not supportive of this request since there may be more
than 2 cars per unit in the complex.
The snow storage for the parking area is indicated in the 30' setback from the rnean annual
high water mark. Snow storage may not be located in the setback due to direct discharge
into the Eagle River An alternative location for these areas must be found.
Dumpster. The two proposed dumpster location are in a 10' landscape buffer zone, but
not indicated on any site plans The dumpsters need to be shown and not located in the
25' front yard setback
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff re-immendation is for Commission to give serious consideration to the attached
proposed PUD information and answer the questions posed by Starr in the report Should

Subarea 10:
The majority of the land within this district is undeveloped.
Riverfront District
The Town Core Land Use Plan indicates mixed use development for this
area, meaning that the potential exists for many different uses to be
r
located here. The critical design issues that any development should
address are the visibility from U.S. 6/24, the preservation and
i
enhancement of the riparian environment along the Eagle River, and
public access along the river. All uses which are located within this district
should be developed to create an attractive appearance fro -,a U.S. 6/24,
with landscape setbacks and screened parking areas. The character of the
—
river and its associated natural habitat should be preserved by sensitive
site planning, architectural detailing, and appropriate setbacks, colors and
scale of structures, as described in the following recommendations.
y
Recommendations:
Within building setback areas adjacent to the Eagle River, provide a
public access easement for public enjoyment of the river and
d
co istruction of a public recreational trail. Require a minimum 30'
building setback from the Eagle River.
Require development to provide reasonable public access through
their property to the river, and to provide public parking and signage
—�
at strategically located trailheads.
Require screening or buffering of offensive uses to ensure a quality
river environment and pleasant views from U.S. 6124.

environment should be located and designed to have the least impact
on the river corridor. Set buildings back from river to preserve its
natural character.
• Limit building heights to three to four stories. The intent is to
establish a scale of development that is subordinate to the Town
Center and compatible with the river environment.
• Buildings should be designed to step down in height as they near the
river and in response to the natural topography.
• Encourage new development and re-evelopment of existing
buildings to be in conformance with the overall design theme
established for the Town.
• Where possible, buildings and parking areas should be located to
preserve and promote the health of existing quality trees.
• Require the replacement of all quality 5" caliper and larger destroyed
trees with minimum 3 1/2" caliper deciduous or 8' tall coniferous
trees in numbers to equal the negotiated value of the destroyed trees.
• Develop minimum landscape setbacks from main access toads to
ensure visual quality.
Subarea ll: This area is characterized by steep terrain, flat areas presently
U.S. Highway 6/24 used for parking, and high visibility from U.S. 6/24. Its location
South District at the base of the Beaver Creek Valley makes it an area where first F

Avon Elementary School
Final Design Review
STAFF COMMENTS:
This site is identified in the following plans for the Town of Avon:
1. Section 4: Land Use Plan of the Comprehensive Plan: Nottingham Park Area, states
that an elementary school is a compatible use for this site and should be designed to
allow and encourage public access to the park.
2. The Transportation/Circulation Plan of the Comprehensive Plan designates West
Beaver Creek Blvd. as having a 4' detached concrete sidewalk and on -street bicycle
lanes on both sides of the street.
3. Section 5: Urban Design Plan: Town Core Urban Design Plan: identifies W. Beaver
Creek Blvd. at this site as having secondary streetscape improvements. Further, this
area is in Subarea 9: Nottingham Park and Municipal Center.
.Sire Plan .4nalrsis:
• Streetscape Improvements: This site has been identified as a secondary streetscape
improvement, which includes a 4' detached concrete sidewalk, curb and gutter and
street lights. The developer must provide all the specified improvements, including the
curb and gutter. The curb and gutter will provide a physical and visual barrier
between the street and sidewalk which will be a safer situation for the children using
the sidewalk.
• Entrance to Site: The middle entrance to the school site is off set from the existing
entrance across the street. As with other developments in the Town of Avon, Staff is
recommending the middle entrance to line up the existing entrance across the street.
Finished Grades: The finished grades on the north side of the school and south of the
bike path are at 2:1. The existing character and grades found in the area are at 3:1.
Staff is recommending the finished grades in this area to be compatible with the
existing grades. In order to lessen the 2:1 slopes, the developer may have a limited
encroachment onto Town property for achievement of 3 1 slopes.
e Joint Parking Area: The site plan indicates 60 parking spaces on the land held in
common with the Town of Avon. This land is for ioint parking use, however, the site
plan indicates the northwest portion of this site in sidewalk and drop off area, This use
needs to located on the school site and parking placed in that area. With the removal
of the sidewalk area the possibility of additional 20 spaces could be reflected.

Final Design Review
Drainare Analysis:
• Drainage Report. The developer has not provided Staff with a drainage report to
coincide with the proposed drainage plan. This must be given to the Town and
approved by the Town Engineer prior to any application for building permit.
6 Drainage_Flow. Based on the submitted drainage plan, our main concern is with the
drainage outlet on the southwest comer of the property. This drainage headwall is
shown dumping onto the south property, causing the potential of flooding, with the
water not being directed to any inlet. This is not allowed and drainage must be
directed to flow to the existing inlet on the southeast corner of the property to the
south.
• Treatment. Another concern deals with type of treatment for the runoff from the
parking area. Some type of filtration gallery or trap must be provided to filter the
runoff.
Lan(Iscape Plan Analt•sis•
• Material Sizes. The proposed landscape plan must meet the Town of Avon minimum
standards of 2" caliper minimum for deciduous trees, 6' high for coniferous trees and S
gallons for shrubs.
!k_ Naturalized Meadow. The plan is calling for a naturalized meadow on the slope north
of the building and south of the bike path. Staff is recommending this area to match
the character of the surrounding material found, which is a formal lawn.
• Existing Trees. The site plan indicates existing trees, which are in an area of
regrading The developer must provide information as to what will happen to the
existing trees, and if removed, how and where thev trees will be replaced
• Irrigation. The developer has asked to tie into the Town of Avon's irrigation system
Upon discussion, it has been determined they may not and must provide their own
means of irrigation
Design Analvsis:
• Retaining Walls and Fences. The site plan indicates retaining walls and fences around
the play area. These details have not been provided Staff will be requesting this
information for approval prior to an application for a building permit

• East Elevation. The eaLr, elevation of the building contains a large blank stucco wall.
This is the elevation facing the park and Staff would like the Commission to determine
if this is the type of image they would like facing the park.
• Roof Form. The north and south elevations indicate the roof forms inclined toward
each other. With the inclination towards the middle, there will be a strong potential
for snow build up in the valley of the roof. Staff would like the Commission to
comment on whether this is an acceptable roof form.
Overall Design Theme The Commission should comment on the overall design of the
building in relation to the Design Guidelines established by the Town. The Design
Guidelines state "The architectural styles of the existing buildings vary greatly.
However, most of them can be described as contemporary, having in common, pitched
roof, stepped facades, recessed windows, balconies, and subtle colors." Commission
should answer the question of whether or not this is in keeping the established design
theme in the Town Center. Portions of the Design Guidelines are attached to this
report.
• Sien. The sign and location are not a part of this approval process since no detail has
been provided.
Miscellaneous Items:
• The building must contain fire alarms and a sprinkler system.
• The type of material used for the driving surfaces must be indicated. If concrete is
used, an asphalt apron must be used to tie into Beaver Creek Blvd.
DESIGN REVIEW CONSIDERATIONS:
The Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project:
1. Conformance with the Zoning Code and other applicable regulations of the
Town.
2. The suitability of the improvement, including type and quality of materials of
which it i, to be constructed and the site upon which it is to be located.
3. The compatibility of the design to minimize site impacts to adjacent properties.
4. The compatibility of the proposed improvements with site topography.

Light Distributions IF L H TI N6r
The CC series offers a selection of
light distributions to allow design
flexibility in tailoring the lighting
system to site geometry. Where
light trespass must be controlled
on adjacent property, houseside
shielding is available on all asym-
metric distributions: The following
light distributions are available per
fixture modal:
Typicely, used as a serge lfalre for narrow
rwdways or alleys, and as a dual mount
for tate entranoas. Available in 25'.
Typically used as a single fixture for road-
ways. pathways or site poni"Ism, and
as a dust or quad mount for site fighting.
Excellent for wall mounting. Available In
17-,25- and 29'.
Typically used as a single fixture for site
perfinerers or as a was mount. EEruol w"
results with houseside shield option.
Available in 25".
Typkally used as a single. dual or quad
mounting for general open site fighting.
Available in 17. 25' and 29'.
Rotatable Optics
All CC reflectors are field rotatable in 90" increments. This
allows design flexibility in producing very his,h ilfimination levels for
special applications, or maintaining a constant fixture geometry
in relation to surrounding architecture.
Types 11. M or IV reflectors can be rotated
into a parallel orientation with a standard
dual mounting configuration. This provides
very high illumination levels as is often required
for tennis courts and automobile dealerships.
Design Flexibility
If a constant fixture align-
ment is desired with the
surrounding architecture,
single or dual mounts
can remain in the same
orientation while rotating
reflectors to change light
pattern geometry.
For single post top
mounts, the fixture yokes
can be held in the same
alignment throughout the
site while reflectors are
rotated to change light
pattern geometry,

IV. ARCHITECTURE
A. Introduction
The purpose of these Architectural Guidelines is to assist
property owners and developers in the planning, design and
construction of projects in the Town of Avon. These guide-
lines attempt to set standards which v, ill promote a harmoni-
ous and successful, integrated development of the town.
They are nct meant to be limiting or restrictive, but seek to
guide new development in a direction which will improve the
town as it grows over the next 25 years.
Unlike many architectural design guidelines, these do not
promote any specific architectural style, nor do they attempt
to reduce architecture to a set of rules and regulations,
materials and colors. Basic principles of regional and
contextual sensitivity are comidered far more important in
their contribution to quality of design than stylistic con-
sistency. These guidelines encourage development which is
designed with Avon's climate and urban context in mind,
with sensitivity to site, adjacent development, sensible use of
materials, thoughtful detailing, and a sense of appropriate-
ness for its location in the mountains of Colorado.
"Buildings should be designed to maximize energy efficiency
by limiting windows and doors on the north, and taidng
advantage of sun exposure on the south. Building facades
should be stepped to avoid long straight walls, and entrances
should be recefsed. All sides of buildings should receive
equal architectural treatment. Windows should be placed to
provide architectural interest. Large, unitu,�rrupted glass
areas should be avoided. At the pedestrian scale, buildings
should contain quality design details that are harmonious
with the overall building architecture. Rooftop equipment
and vents, as well as trash disposal and service areas should
be concealed with a treatment that is complementary to the
building architecture. •
B. Area Wide Guidelines
1. Building Height
Building heights within the Town of Avon are described
in the Zoning Ordinance. Maximum height in the Town
30
ti �'•i�',i1'.�'�-r..��'P'�vlf
Center is 80' and in the Commercial Core 48'. Refer to
the town of Avon Zoning Ordinance for detailed infor-
mation on building heights.
Special consideration should be given to chimneys, tow-
ers, or other elements which may violate the height
restriction, as they have the potential to add architectural
character and variety to the skyline.
Solar access is of primary importance within the town
core, and all designs will be required to provide solar
i access studies showing the effect of shading on adjacent
buildings and outdoor spaces. (Sun studies should be
prepared on a site plan of a scab not less than 1" = 40%
0" showing shadows at noon on March 21, June 21,
i September 21, and December 21.)
2. Roofs
Roof forms are strong determinants of architectural
style. Due to climatic conditions, roof forms should be
kept simple, with pitches limited to 6:12 to 12:12 for
sloped roofs. Flat roofs are discouraged except for
limited roof areas, for the location of concealed me-
chanical equipment, or for architectural effect. Sloped
roofs should have overhangs. Secondary shed -type roofs
should have pitches no less than 4:12. Valleys and com-
pl�x roof forms are a potential source of ice buildup and
water damage, and should be used carefully and spar-
ingly.
The use of dormers (shed, peaked, eyebrow, etc.) is en-
couraged to help break up large expanses of roof, to en-
hance the useability of attic spaces, and to add archi-
tectural interest to the roofscape.
Roof materials must be carefully specified to withstand
mountain climatic conditions. Necessary attributes for
long-lasting roofs are: high strength, low absorption or
permeability, and resistance to freeze -thaw damage.
Roof materials within the Town Core may be the follow-
ing: unglazed concrete tile, wood shingles, copper,
standing seam metal, or terve-coated steel. Shake shin-
gles, asphalt, and fiberglass roofs are prohibited.

WIN
Tile:
Concrete tile is an effective roof in mountain climates.
Tile should be used in a dull finish in colors compatible
with the town (green, reddish brown, gray, for exam-
ple.). Due to difficulties in detailing and constructing
valleys and ridges, especially in cold roof construction,
roof forms should be kept simple.
Metal Roofs:
Terne coated stainless steel or other high quality metai
roofs with dull finish can be considered. Colors should
be muted to fit within the context. Green, gray, reddish
brown, or slate are appropriate colors.
Wood Shingles:
Cut shingles are preferred to shake shingles in mountain
environments. Patterns of alternating exposure widths of
shingles can add interest and texture to roofs.
New materials will be subject to approval by the Design
Review Board.
Exposed metal flashing, gutters, downspouts or oth,:r
building appurtenances must be copper, steel, iron, or
aluminum, applied and fastened in a high-quality man-
ner. When painted, these elements must be finished with
a baked enamel paint, epoxy paint, or a silicon -modified
alloy. Snow shedding is a major concern which must be
carefully considered in the design of roofs in the Avon
Town Core. Building entries, garage and service doors,
shop fronts, and other points of entry must be located
out of the path of shedding snow. Gable fronts, covered
porches, balconies, and snow retention devices are all
acceptable methods of dealing with snow -shedding off of
sloped roofs.
Landscape features such as retaining walls or raised
planters may also be used to direct pedestrians out of the
way of snow or ice shed areas. Where removal of snow
from roofs is anticipated, mechanical and safety devices
should be provided, as well as easy access to the roof.
3. Exterior Walls
The form of exterior walls in the Town Core should
W
>r niers
Shed
dormev-
"ufcbroxi "
dein cr-
3 grow out of a balanced response between the public
spaces they enfront and the interior functions they en-
close. Walls can be broken down in scale through the
use of windows, doorways, recesses and setbacks. Trey
can be further articulated through the use of different
materials, patterns, ornament, texture and color. In
addition to addressing the more formal design issues,
walls must also respond to solar exposure: more open
and glazed on the south exposure, more protected and
solid on the north.
Exterior walls should attempt to enclose exterior space
and to create a sense of "street." This encourages the
linkage of one building to the rest, and the continuation
of urban form as opposed to individual buildings in the
landscape.
C6vildinj encloses pctsi+ive
ovfdoor Sp2ee
Building Massing is the primary way of achieving a
sense of enclosure and works most effectively when.
_
zoning allows structures to be built to the setback line.
Walls of commercial and retail spaces should be pre-
dominately glazed, giving an open and welcoming quali-
i
ty. Residential spaces should be glazed in a manner
consistent with the level of privacy required with consid-
eration to distance from the street and adjacent buildings.
i
Office space should have a "legible" character as well,
somewhere between retail and residential.
`
The following materials are encouraged in the Town
Core:
Stucco and synthetic stucco:
3
These materials are resistant to water and snow and can
be used effectively at the "base" of a building where it
meets the ground. They at,, also suitable on upper walls
of buildings. Joints, variety of color, and changes in
plan all help to create a sense of scale on stucco walls.
r
i
Stone:
—�
Although costly, stone is an enduring material well-
suited to the extremes of Colorado weather. It can be
�.
used at the base of buildings, up the walls, or in ele-
ments such as chimneys or towers. 'toughly squared
stone set in a random pattern is preferable to more
formal uses of stone. In large walls, stone should be set
—
33
r1
C6vildinj encloses pctsi+ive
ovfdoor Sp2ee
with larger stones at the bottom gradually diminishing to
smaller stones at the top.
Wood Sidin,:
This is an xonomical material for wall surfaces, but
should be avoided when likely to be in continuous
contact with saow such as at the base of buildings. The
scale of the wood siding (4", 6", 8" or larger) should be
chosen to complement the desired design effect.
Wood Shingles:
This material can be used in lieu of wood siding and has
the capacity to conform to a variety of shapes such as
curves, bows, battered walls, etc.
Heavy Timber:
Exterior elements such as porches, roof overhangs, dor-
mers, and gables can offer the opportunity to use heavy
timber elements to create interest, give scale, and signify
areas of architectural importance.
Concrete:
Poured -in-place or pre -cast concrete can be used effec-
tively if their use is judicious. Pre -cast column and
spandrel covers, at grade or poured -in-place walls with
large store aggregate are examples of acceptable use of
concrete.
Detaus:
Terra Cotta or ceramic tile inserts are encour_ged to add
highlights or detail to walls. Care must be taken in the
detailing and construction of inserts to ensure that they
do not work loose from freeze/thaw cycles. The effect
of clever detail touches can be significant.
4. Chimneys and Flues
If properly designed, chimneys and flues can be impor
tant clements in the overall design of buildings which
affect the roofscape and skyline. All flues should be en-
closed in a finished material such as stone, wood, or
stucco. "11he form of chimneys and flues should be
consistent with the design of the building. Use of dis-
tinctive chimney caps is encouraged. Where possible,
any building vents, flues, or other roof penetrations
34
avmnays
a+�il 6"
G
i
F
i
should be Mustered and screened within chimney -like
enclosures.
Chimneys must be carefully located to avoid fumigwion
t� of adjaccct buildings and ground areas. Generally they
should be as high as possible and on the upwind side of
the roof for best results.
`75% b/w*s d Refal/ Avniaye
Particular attention must be paid to the location of ex-
A,
haust vents from commercial kitchens which can emit
unpleasant odors and noise. These vents must meet or
exceed local codes and we subject to modification and/or
relocation at the request of the Town of Avon if the
R
system does not perform adequately.
KO
5. Windows
Windows must serve many purposes in the design of
buildings. They establish patterns, rhythms, and scale
on the exterior walls, they respond to uses and needs on
the interior, and they can be recognizable indications of
what goes on behind them. They provide passive solar
A
heating for interior spaces and also contribute to heat
loss from within. Variety :a the use of windows is en-
couraged within certain limits. Commercial spaces must
have large areas of glass opening onto public pathways,
streets, or sidewalks (suggested goal is 75% glass).
Residences, hotels, and other private uses should have
more limited use of glass. In both cases, large uninter-
rupted areas of glass are discouraged. Division of win
dows by mullions and muntins adds character and gives
scale to the building.
Aluminum, steel, painted wood, or clad wood windows
are allowable. Prohibitions include: mirrored glass,
;,nap -in muntins, glass curtain walls, and other assem-
blies which are clearly out of character with the Town
Core.
6. Doors and Entryways
Public Doors and entry ways within The Town should be
a combination of glass and metal or wood, or solid
_
wood. All -glass or all -metal doors are dis ouraged.
Doors should be used to establish interest, character, and
35
A
_9
`75% b/w*s d Refal/ Avniaye
A,
`75% b/w*s d Refal/ Avniaye
-N
variety along the public right-of-way. Where possible,
gates, courtyards, staircases, and bridges should be used
to connect buildings and create outdoor rooms and
linkages. Service doors out of view of the public may
be hollow metal or solid wood in hollow metal frames.
Main entries should not be placed on the north side of
buildings unless no other alternative exist.-. When a
main entry occurs on a north facade it should be covered
with a porch or porte cochere.
7. Decks and Balconies
Decks and Balconies become part of the design palette
used to enrich the character and create variety on the
building exteriors. Where possible, balconies and decks
should be located to take advantage of solar exposure,
and should be sed in combination with bay windows
and other exterior projections. Long, linear balconies
such as might appear on a motel are discouraged.
13. Exterior Walkways
Care must be taken in the design and location of exterior
sidewalks to avoid placing them in areas which are in
shadow all winter long. On the north side of buildings,
sidewalks should either be covered or far enough away
from the building to be out of its shadow for several
hours each day.
C. Town Centre Guidelines
"The Town Center is the urban core of the Town. It is
envisioned to be an intensely developed area that is centered
around an internal pedestrian circulation system. Emphasis
should be placed on creating inviting storefronts and plaza
areas for public interaction. Buildings should be closely
spaced and range between four an eight sto-ies. "
1. Building Form and Massing
In general, building forms should be used to create
definable public spaces between buildings. Buildings en-
fror'%-g the mall should create an edge to h=1p define the
mall space. Buildings on the south side of the mall
36
This
Decks e ?-$.comes
should step back above the second story to allow greater
sun exposure for the mall. Buildings on the north side
of the mall should step back above 'Ne second or third
floor.
The intention of these guidelines is to encourage the cre-
ation of an intensely developed village without sacri-
ficing views and access to sun in all public spaces.
Buildings must be designed as elements of a townscape
rather than as stand-alone buildings. They should be
closely spaced and vary in mass, height, and bulk, while
at the same time reinforcing a sense of positive outdoor
space.
Buildings off the mall should respond to site concerns of
view, solar access, entry, service, public/private, and
existing context, and will be given more latitude in form
a a massing than buildings on the mall.
2. Windows
In the Town Center Area, windows must conform to the
following criteria:
• Pedestrian Level: In Commercial spaces the mini-
mum allowable glass areas is 75% of walls opering
on to the Pedestrian or ground level. The maximum
size of individual panes of glass is not to exceed 16
square feet. In general, areas of glass unbroken by
wa1! or structure should not exceed 150 square feet.
Pedestrian Level: Hotel or Office spaces at pedes-
trian level should be as open as possible and not less
than 50 percent glass, unless it is a north exposure,
in which case glass may be reduced to 40 percent.
The same restrictions apply to sizes of individual
panes and areas of glass unbroken by wall or struc-
ture.
• Upper Levels: Hotel, residential or offices have no
requirements for percentage of window to wall, but
are restricted to individual panes of a maximum of
10 square feet and a maximum overall glass area of
48 square feet per window opening.

a 4
Doorways in the Town Center will serve a variety of
needs from entrances to shops, and restaurants to hotels,
offices, and residences. opportunities for individual
expression, craftsmanship, and statement of architectural
character are encouraged in the doors and entryways of
the Town. Combined with shop windows, awnings,
street furniture, and lighting, these entries will become
important character -defining elements at pedestrian level.
4. Commercial Frontages
The primary objective of Commercial Frontages is to
provide visual identity for the activity within the com-
mercial space to promote the uses within. These front-
ages also contribute to a visually dynamic and cohesive
street level. Individual tenant frontages must assert their
individual identities, while at the same time fitting within
there specific architectural context. The following
guidelines should be consistent in the design of these
storefronts:
• Variety of individual elements such as window
openings, trim, storefront configuration, etc. must be
achieved within. The proportions and scale of the
associated building materials may vary in detailing

Site Plan:
This site contains the Metcalf Ditch easement on the south side. There is a rock wall and
regrading shown in the easement, which is not allowed. The applicant must keep all
grading and disturbance out of the easement. The sod is permitted in the easement, but
with the developer's understanding the potential for it being ripped out due to maintenance
for the easement
The site plan does net reflect the Eagle River or the 30' setback from the mean annual high
water mark. This must be shown.
The parking is shown is within the 10' front yard setback for parking areas, which is not
allowed. A revised site plan must be submitted which shows the parking at least 10' from
the front property line.
The first 20' of the driveway may not exceed 4%.
The east unit garage entrance is facing east, creating a couple of points tum for access into
and out of the garage. This is not functi„ncii Li-culation and the applicant is strongly
encouraged to locate the entrance to the north
The site disturbance and the impacts of the project is being shown from lot line to lot line,
indicating that the project may be too large for the site.

Dear Norm:
We have completed our review of the site grading, drainage and
utility plan received in your office on July 25, 1994 for Lot 16,
Block 1, Eaglebend Filing No. 1. Below are our comments:
1. A base map prepared and certified by a professional
engineer or registered land surveyor licensed in the
State of Colorado has not be provided.
2. Existing utilities or utility service lines have not been
shown.
3. The topography should extend at least 10 feet into the
adjacent properties and to the centerline of Eaglebend
Drive. Without the topographic information on Eaglebend
Drive the grades at the driveway entrance cannot be
checked.
4. The Eagle River mean annual high water mark with a 30
foot setback line needs to be shown on the site plan.
5. A ten foot setback from the property line needs to be
maintained to the edge of parking.
6. The elevation at the western unit's garage entrance is
not shown. It seems that the grades approaching the
garage entrance exceeds 8%. Also, the runoff from the
driveway is flowing into the garage.
7. Access to the eastern unit's garage seems vert difficult
and restricted.

Dear Mary:
We have completed our preliminary review of the site plan received

Below are our comments.
1. Water and sewez service lines need to be shown.
2. A low point in front of each home is suggested to promote
positive drainage away from the homes and garages. The
low points should be designed so the drainage is directed
off the driveway and around the houses.

Re: Valley Wide Mechanical & Electrical, Inc.
Committee Member,
RECEI F i
AUG ]994
TOWN OF AVON
We wish to explain the circumstances behind Valley Wide's new shop
being painted a color other than the ones approved by the
Committee. Mike Etem was the construction manager for the project
and he was fired halfway through the project because of poor
performance. At the point of his termination, the Butler building
was ordered and delivered on the site and all major subcontracts
had been signed, (including the painting contractor). Mike had met
with the Board on several occasions to receive proper approvals for
the construction and finally received the go-ahead on the fourth
meeting. The design was acceptable along with the color scheme and
the landscape layout. I was not directly involved in the design
and in fact only attended one meeting before the Board.
Sometime the first half of March, 1994, Doug DeChant, our
Architect, called to tell us that he was told by Town officials
that the building may have been painted the wrong color. He went
on to say that no one could be sure that the building was
mispainted because all planning department files on our building
had been lost, including his rendering. That was the only
conversation regarding this issue until May 20, 1994, when Mary
Holden came to our shop for an inspection. During her walk-
through, she found three items of record: 1) The canopy was not
complete 2) Several bushes and trees had not survived the winter 3)
The building was painted colors not approved by the P & Z. This
last item was a shock to all of us at Valley Wide. In retrospect,
I remember looking at the stucco as the subcontractor was finishing
his painting on the north side of the facade and connecting that
the color was nothing I would have picked out, but if the P & Z had
another agenda, who was I to question their judgement.
Now that the building is complete and over budget by several
hundred thousand dollars, we are faced with another real dilemma.
We are struggling financially to recover from the additional
construction costs and with the notice that our building is now the
wrong color, we are extremely frustrated.

Town of Avon
On another issue, I do not recall receiving a request to attend a
June meeting with the P & Z, but I wrote several notes to myself
regarding the July 5th meeting. I worked until 8:45 pm the evening
of July 5th and the only thing on my mind was survival of Valley
Wide not attending the P & Z meeting - I simply forgot.
Throughout the entire building process, we have acquired to all the
wishes of the Avon P & Z including but not limited to copper
flashing, copper awnings, reduced number of parking spaces and
19,000 square feet of driveway snowmelt. The above items have cost
us in excess of $150,000 and we have done so without complaint. We
would never have painted our building the wrong color knowingly and
risked having to spend money and paint it all over again.
We ask that you consider these issues presented in this letter
along with the recommendation of the Avon Building Department. In
addition, we encourage you to visit the site and allow us to give
you a tour of our facility. We are proud of it. Also, pay
attention to the buildings on either side of us and see if they fit
into the master plan you had in mind. You will note that one of
the buildings has not seen a paint brush in at least 12 years and
the other is a fluorescent color better suited for the new Aquatic
Center.
In conclusion, your acceptance of the Community Development's
recommendation would be appreciated by myself and all 85 Valley
Wide employees.
Sincerely,
Tho S, D',Agostino, President
Valley Wide Mechanical & Electrical, Inc.
P.S. We have contacted Butler Building Company and they will not
allow painting of the factory finish without voiding the 20 year
warranty.

Dear Mary:
We have completed our second review of the site plan for Lot 8,
Block 4, Wildridge. Below are our comments:
1. All proposed rock retaining walls regardless of their
height are shown with a one foot horizontal width. The
average height of the walls is three feet.
2. There is one 6 foot and two 5 foot retaining wells east
of the garage entrance that have not been designed by a
licensed engineez.
3. No grading has been shown behind the house. The depth or
dimensions of the proposed drainage swale is unknown.
The Town of Avon Design Guidelines suggest a slope away
from all buildings at a minimum of six inches in ten
feet. The swale is currently shown approximately 2 feet
from the back wall. Swales are normally 10 feet from the
rear foundation wall.
4. A 6 percent slope is shown in front of the garage.
