PZC Packet 071691STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Lot 47, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision Koehn Single Family Residence Final Design Review INTRODUCTION Mark Bornschein, on behalf of Mike and Rhonda Koehn, has requested design review for a single family home on Lot 47, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision. Lot 47 is .78 of an acre (33,977 square feet) in size and is located at 2540 Old Trail Road. The lot slopes toward the southeast at approximately 25%. The. Nouse has approximately 2,200 square feet of habitable floor area, not including the garage, and has a height of 27 feet above finished grade. The house will also feature a gas fireplace and a large wraparound deck. Exterior building materials include 1" x 8" channel rustic cedar siding, 1" x 4" cedar trim, woodruff shingles, double pane windows and a concrete driveway. A grading/drainage plan and a landscape plan have been provided for the Commission's review. The landscape plan shows an adequate combination of trees and shrubs throughout the property. The prominent features of the landscape plan are the two large planting areas on either side of the driveway. All areas within these planting areas will be covered with decorative bark. All trees and shrubs on the property will be drip irrigated. The grading/drainage plan has not been overlayed onto the existing topographic survey of the lot so the full impacts of this proposal cannot be assessed at this time. Driveway grade appears to be approximately 5%. STAFF COMMENTS The Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of a proposed project: 6.11 - The conformance with the Zoning Code and other applicable rules and regulations of the Town of Avon. COMMENT: This proposal is in general conformance with the Avon Zoning Code and other applicable rules and regulations of the Town. The property is zoned duplex and the applicant is proposing to construct a single family residence.

Lot 4 is 0.60 of an acre (26,Op3 square feet) and is located at the far west end of Shepherd Ridge. Lot 4 is the largest lot in the 12 lot Wildridge Acres Subdivision. The proposed building has a floor area of 2,225 square feet and a maximum building height of 34 feet above finished grade. Exterior building materials include 8" cedar siding, clad windows and masonite shingles (Woodruff). The driveway will be finished with asphalt. Color samples will be presented ac the meeting. The proposed landscape plan for this lot substantially complies with the overall landscape plan for Wildridge Acres. Drip irrigation will be provided to all trees. STAFF COMMENTS The Commission shall cc.isider the following items in reviewing the design of a proposed project: 6.11 - The conformance with the Zoning Cade and other applicable rules and regulations of the Town of Avon. COMMENT: This proposal is in general conformance with the Avon Zoning Code and other applicable rules and regulations of the Town, with the exception that the portion of the driveway within the right-of-way appears to have a grade in excess of 4%. 6.12 - The ,uitabilit'v 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. COMMENT: The type and quality of the building and landscaping materials are suitable with Town guidelines and the same as thou usad on all of the previous buildings in Wildridge Acres. No stucco is proposed to be used on this building STAFF REPORT July 16, 1991 Page 2 of 4 TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Lot 4, Wildridge Acres Subdivision Steve Riden for Bob Kedrowski Corwin -Brown Residence Final Design Review 6.13 - The compatibility of the design to minimize site impacts to adjacent properties. COMMENT: The orientation of the garage entrance has caused the driveway to be located right on the south property line. The rock wall supporting the driveway encroaches into Lot 5. No letter of authorization from the owner of Lot 5 has been provided regarding this encroachment. In addition, the driveway and wall are located within a drainage and utility easement. 6.14 - The compatibility of proposed improvement with site topography. COMMENT: The property slopes toward the west at approximately 30%. The house has been designed to step down in the direction of natural grade. TI; plan snows a 10% maximum slope for the proposed driveway, however, staff calculations indicate that if the 4% maximum grade is maintained within the public right-of-way the driveway grade would appear to exceed the 10% maximum. 6.15 - The visual appearance of any proposed improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring properties and public ways. COMMENT: The appearance of this residence from ne?ahboring properties and public ways seems acceptable. 6.16 - The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that values, monetary or aesthetic will be impaired. COMMENT: Staff sees ,o conflict with this criteria. The architecture and building materials proposed for this lot seem to be a logical continuation of the Wildridge Acres theme. 6.17 - The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs of the Town of Avon.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Lot 50, Block 1, Schaub Duplex Conceptual Design INTRODUCTION Wildridge Subdivision Review Wally Schaub has requested conceptual design review of a proposed duplex on Lot 50, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision. Lot 50 is .81 of an acre (35,284 square feet) in size and slopes toward the north, northwest at approximately 22%. The lot is one of the few "flag" lots in Wildridge. The buildable portion of the lot is accessed F,, a 45' wide, 150' long strip of land adjacent to Saddleridge Loop. A 16' wide asphalt drive will be provided. The proposed building is a two story, with loft, log home on a concrete foundation. Maximum building height is 31 feet. Each unit has approximately 1,800 square feet of floor area. Exterior building materials are as follows: - Cedar shake shingles - 9" log exterior walls - Stucco - Anderson wood windows - 1" x 4" cedar trim around windows and door - 1" x 12" horizontal skirtboard - Metal exterior doors This application was originally presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission on June 18, 1991. Conceptual approval of the project was tabled in order to allow the applicant time to provide more detailed information and address the Commission's concerns as follows: - Provide a more detailed topographic survey - A detailed site grading and drainage plan is needed - Asphalt shingles discouraged on this project - Consider a professional landscape plan - The mirror image is a strong problem - Consider potential driveway problems It appears that the applicant has provided the inrormation requested by the Planning and Zoning Commission. STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Page 2 of 2 Lot 50, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Schaub Duplex Conceptual Design Review STAFF COMMENTS As this is a conceptual review, no formal Staff recommendation will be presented at this time.

Commission Review/Discussion Respectfully submitted, Jim Curnutte Planner STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Lot A, Blo:;k 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Avon Center - Hot Tub Room Addition Michael Hazard for Avon Center Homeowners Association Design Review INTRODUCTION Michael Hazard, on behalf of the Avon Center Homeowners Association, is requesting design review of a proposed hot tub room addition at the Lodge at Avon Center. The 16' wide x 24' long x 17' high room will be located on the large existing deck on the south side of the building (2nd floor). The new building will house a mechanical and storage room and a new hot tub with surrounding decking. The Duilding exterior will match the Avon Center Building. Specifically, tan stucco siding and a brown metal standing seam roof will be utilized. In order to meet code requirements, a new egress stairway will be added to the west side of the second story deck. At the time of writing this report no elevation drawings have been provided to show the stairway in greater detail, however, Mr. Hazard has indicated that elevation drawings of the stairs will be provided before the Commission's site visit. STAFF COMMENTS The proposed hot tub addition appears to be very compatible with the existing architecture of the building. However, Staff has two concerns regarding this request. 1. The Avon Center building is divided into two separate ownerships. The commercial portion of the building (floors 1 and 2) is owned by the Resolution Trs!3t Corporation (RTC). The residential portion of the budding (floors 3 thru 8) is owned by the Avon Center homeowners. It is not clear at this point whether or not the homeowners have a right to add the hot tub addition and egress stairway to the roof and side of the first floor commercial area. No letter of authorization has been provided from the RTC regarding tke proposed improvements. 2. The new stairway proposed to be added to the west wall of the first floor commercial area must not interfere with the existing office entrance. The proposed STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Page 2 of 3 Lot A, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Avon Center - Hot Tub Room Addition Michail Hazard for Avon Center Homeowners Association Design Review stairway detail must be approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

Commission Review/Discussion Respectfully submitted, Jim Curnutte Planner STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Lots 5 and 11, Block 5, Wildridge Subdivision Wildwood Townhomes Design Revisions INTRODUCTION On May 7, 1991, the Town of Avon received final design review approval for the Wildwood Townhomes project located on Lot 5 and 11, Block 5, Wildridge Subdivision. Lot 5 is a five unit townhome project and Lot 11 has two six -unit buildings. The Wildwood Townhomes are a for sale affordable housing project being developed by the Town of Avon. The objective of this project is to allow 17 local families the ability to own their own housing in a high quality, affordable project that will be compatible with the neighborhood and the Town of Avon. The following design revisions have been made as cost saving measures and are essential to the success of this project. The staff is comfortable that the project, with these changes, still presents a strong and positive architectural image and meets or exceeds all of the Town of Avon guidelines. The design revisions are: - The color has been deleted from the concrete walkways. All walkways will now be standard concrete. - The timber edging around the front planters has been removed to facilitate snow removal. The planter size and the landscape materials have not been amended. - Project signs have been simplified. The revised signs are reflected in the building plans. - Dumpster enclosures have been eliminated. Trash pickup will be done on an individual unit basis with all trash containers to be stored within each garage. - The custom round window in the sta;.-well has been changed to a standard rectang e. - Siding has been changed from an u lap to a 12" lap. The siding material has not changed, although the siding will be embossed, as opposed STAFF REPORT July 16, 1991 Page 2 of 3 TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Lots 5 and 11, Block 5, Wildridge Subdivision Wildwood Townhomes Design Revisions to smooth sided. - The custom round attic vents have been changed to a triangular vent. - All site retaining walls have been deleted and the grading plan amended to compensate. - The shed roof over the stair towers has been changed to a flat roof with interior drain system. - A Timberline 360 pound per square asphalt shingle has replaced the wood shake roof. - The foundation plan has been simplified, which has eliminated some of the building jogs, particularly around the stairwells. In summary, the Staff believes that these revisions all meet the design guidelines of the Town of Avon and still maintains the original architectural integrity of the project. The roof material change is certainly an issue which needs discussion. Although a lrevious Board has approved asphalt roof materials in Wildridge, the current and previous Board has established a policy regarding roof materials in Wildridge. Wood shakes, Woodruf masonite, sod and tile are all approved materials, while metal and asphalt roofs have not been allowed. While this specific request is driven by budgetary reasons, the Staff would like to address the asphalt shingle issue for tha entire Subdivision. The frequency of requests for asphalt shingles has increased and there seem to be several reasons above and beyond costs. The availability of cedar products is diminishing and the quality and appearance of asphalt shingles has increased substantially as the industry has resporded to design issues. The asphalt is a low maintenance, long lasting product and provides a much greater margin oisafety from a fire protection standpoint. For these reasons, the Staff believes it may be appropriate to review the previous roof materials policy for inclusion of high quality asphalt shingles as an accepted material. STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 16, 1991 Page 3 of 3 Lots 5 and 11, Block 5, Wildridge Subdivision Wi-dwood Townhomes Design Revisions STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommendation for the proposed design revisions, as discussed in this report and illustrated on the revised drawings, is for approval.
