Parcel 2, Swift Gulch Addition
Excavation and Revegetation
The purpose of this application is to establish a borrow area to supply material
for construction of a portion of Buck Creek Road in combination with limited
site grading for a yet undetermined development project. The site is essentially
isolated from developed areas of the Town by natural terrain and Interstate 70.
Consequently, the proposed project is expected to have minimal impact both
visually and environmentally.
The proposed reveget--tion plan basically calls for the top soil to be stockpiled,
respread over the excavated area, reseeding with a mixture of native grasses,
plants and wildflowers and mulching the disturbed area. The proposed revegetation
process is the same as that used for revegetation along Swift Gulch Road.

Avon Center - Parking Lot and
� Driveway Modifications
Lots A & 55, Block 2, Benchmark Subdivision
This application is for a modification to the parking lot and driveway plan
which was approved at the November 10, 1983 meeting of the Planning and Zoning
Commission. The modifications basically consist of the addition of an exit
between the entrance and Avon Road. The addition of this exit should help
relieve traffic congestion at the entrance but it must be designed and signed
to assure that it is used ONLY as an exit.
The Commission may wish to consider the following conditions in the approval
process for this project:
1. Reduce westerly radius at exit only and Beaver Creek Boulevard from 25
feet to 10 feet;
2. Place ONE WAY - DO NOT ENTER sign on westerly side of exit;
3. Limit parking to 10 or 15 minutes for the following spaces:
a. 4 spaces immediately in front of building;
b. 7 spaces immediately in front of building;
c. 3 spaces closest to easterly end of buildinq;
4. Place LOADING ZONE - NO PARKING signs at all loading zone locations.
It may also be wise to note that the 58 spaces shown on this site plan does not
bring the Avon Center - Phase I project into compliance with Town parking
regulations. The project will still be short approximately 75 spaces.

Landscape Plan & Business Sign - Design Review
Applicant's request:
1. Avon Center - approval of landscaping plan;
2. Avon Center - approval of business sign.
1. Plans submitted June 19, 1984 appear to be complete with size, location,
and types of landscaping, and appears to comply with the requireients of
Chapter 17, Zoning; in general, "59 landscaping, and areas over 30 spaces
broken up by islands;"
Staff considerations:
A. To provide for safe exiting and traffic flow, I would recommend consideration
of the following:
1. Large trees within a 30 foot triangle of exits be: moved to another
area, replaced with small bushes 36" maximum, or removed;
(Note: refrain from putting large items in the right-of-way as future
road expansion may require removal).
B. No provisions for pedestrian ways have been provided to the north or west;
as the areas north and west are not developed, this may be impossible to
adequately address now, however, the idea should be given some thou.ht..

Forest Service Access Road
Tract I, Block 3, Wildridge Subdivision
e
Plans for a National Forest access road across Tract I in I-'ildridge have been
submitted by Wildridge Development Company. Tract I is currently zoned for
open space, drainage, and access. The primary function of the proposed road
is to provide access to an existing four wheel drive trail located immediately
north of Wildridye on National Forest Service Land. This tail is currently
being accessed across Lots 48, 49, and 50, Block 3, Wildridge, from an un-
authorized exit point from North Point Road. This uncontrolled access road is
resulting in damage to both public and private properties. The proposed access
road should eliminate this problem.
Roads of this type are not included in the Town's Design Standards. Because
of this, I feel this design should have special consideration and approval.
Basically the road design calls for a top width of 14 feet and grades ranging
from 15 to 20 percent. Bar ditches will be constructed across the roadway at
regular intervals to minimize erosion problems which otherwise would result
from the steep grades. Disturbed areas outside the roadway will be revegetated
by hydro -seeding methods similar to that used successfully on other roads in
Wildridqe.
This road design and location has been reviewed both from the plans and from
field observations. As a result of this review, I feel it would be impractical
to construct a higher type road having a wider surface and flatter grades.
A road of this type would result in considerably more environmental damage
consisting of a much larger disturbed area and highly visible cut and fill slopes.
In addition, the cost of constructing a higher type road would be prohibitive.
The proposed road will be constructed at no cost to the Town.
Due to the lack of Town standards regarding this type of road, official action
approving the plans and allowing construction of this access road is recommended.

Lot 17, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision
Castruita-Trueblood Fourplex
This is a revised plan for a project approved at the June 14, 1984 Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting. The previous plan was approved subject to the following
conditions:
1. Eliminate or redesign driveway to correct grading problems, subject to
Town Engineer's approval. Also correct site grading as necessary;
2. Consider site lighting;
3. Final approval subject to review of exterior elevations which should be
modified to improve wall massing. The location and placement of various
sizes of windows should be major area of consideration;
4. Replace 4 aspen trees on east side of project with 4 blue spruce trees at
least 8 feet in height.
On this plan, the building cluster has been rotated so that the courtyard is open
toward the east and the entrance from Old Trail Road has been eliminated. Site
and driveway grades are pow acceptable and very little grading is required except.
along the north side Unit C where 3-4 feet of fill is indicated.
The following comments are offered for the Commission's consideration in its
review of these revised plans:
1. It may be desireable to provide 3 or 4 additional parking spaces in the
circular area of the driveway due to congestion in the courtyard area;
2. Additional landscaping (screening) may be desireable in the same area;
3. This site plan is much improved over the previous plan which was approved.
This plan requires much less site grading, site grades are much flatter and
drifting snow may be less of a problem.

Lock -off Units in TC Zone District
This requested Special Review Use is to allow construction of 31 efficiency
and one bedroom units with additional lock -off accommodation units.
Section 17.08.375 of the Municipal Code defines a lock -off unit as "a room or
group of rooms which, although built as Part of a dwelling or accommodation unit,
may be locked -off from the main portion of the unit and entered without going
through the main living unit. Such room or rooms shall be considered and
treated as accommodation units for density and parking requirements. All such
rooms must be capable of functioning as part of the main living unit. Lock -off
units used as accommodation units may include bathroom facilities, but shall
not include a cooking area or cooking facilities."
Section 17.20.0400 further states, "For purposes of calculating allowable density
in any district in which locked -off accommodation units are allowed as Special
Review Uses, each bedroom in excess of three bedrooms in a living unit shall be
counted as an additional one-third of a density unit. No more than two such
accommodation units shall be permitted to be locked -off from a main living unit."
In accordance with Section 17.20.010, lock -offs are permissable in the TC Zone
District, subject to Special Review Use approval.
In considering a Special Review Use, the Commission shall determine:
1. Whether the proposed use otherwise complies with all requirements imposed
by the zoning code;
2. Whether the proposed use is consistent with the objectives and purposes
of this zoning code and the applicable zoning district; and
3. Whether the proposed use is designed to be compatible with surrounding
land use and uses in the area.
The following information may be pertinent in making the above determinations:
1. The proposed unit design appears to conform to the requirements of
Sections 17.08.375 and 17.20.050C for lock -off units requiring only one
density unit;
2. Lots 57-60, Block 2, Benchmark Subdivision are currently zoned TC;
3. Lots 57-60, Block 2, Benchmark Subdivision have not been resubdivided
to vacate interior lot lines and easements as required to allow construction
of project as proposed;
