RE: Zoning Code Adoption
DATE: May 6, 1991
In March of 1990, the Town of Avon adopted a Comprehensive Plan. As an
outgrowth of the Comprehensive Plan, the need for revision to the Town of
Avon Zoning Code was recognized.
The revision process began with some basic assumptions -
1. Revise the code to allow development to follow Comprehensive Plan
Guidelines.
2. No downzoning of residential development capabilities.
3. Elimination of the fractionalization system.
4. Elimination of the transfer of development rights system.
The code revisions have held to these basic assumptions. The revisions have
occurred fiver a 6 month period of Planning and Zoning Commission and Town
Council cork sessions, with public input sessions at both the start and conclusion
of the revision period.
All proposed revisiors have been revieded and discussed by both the Planning and
Zoning Commission and Town Council and the copies of the proposed revisions provided
to you at the previous meeting incorporate all of those changes into a final
document.
The Staff is requesting formal approval in the form of Resolution 91-3, recommending
the Town Council approve the proposed revisi^ns to the Zoning Code.

landscare Plan and Building Color Review
INTRODUCTION
On April 2, 1991, Tony Seibert received final design review
approval of a duplex on Lot 8, Filing 1, Eaglebend
Subdivision. The Planning and Zoning Commission's approval
did not include a review of proposed landscaping or building
colors. These two items were required to be brought back to
the Commission for their review.
A landscape plan has been submitted for the Commission s
review. The plan appears to be in keeping with previous
Seibert projects in the area (very complete, professional
landscape work). Specifically, the property will be sodded
and irrigated and will contain nodes of planting areas
scattered throughout the lot.
Proposed building colors have not been submitted to Staff for
review as of the writing of this report. They will most
likely be presented at the Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting.

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 budding materials
are suitable with Town guidelines. The site is nearly flat
and very conducive to building.
6.13 - The compatibility of the design to minimize site
impacts to adjacent properties.
COMMENT: The siting and landscaping of the building is
sympathetic to the adjacent residential property. Ail
grading will be contained within 'lot lines. The design of
this particular residence is such that the building overhangs
touch the building setback lines on three of its four sides.
Caution should be exercised when setting the foundation forms
in order to assure that all portions of the building will be
within the building setback lines.
6.14 - The compatibility of proposed improvement with
site topography.
ENT: The property is fairly flat at the present
time rhe lower level of the house has been designed to be
partially below grade.
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
neighboring properties and public ways seems acceptable.
Adequate landscape clusters have been provided throughout the
property, although additional landscaping along O'Neil Spur
would be beneficial.
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 no conflict with this criteria.

Lot 43, Block 2, Wildridge
Mark Harrison
Final Design Review
INTRODUCTION
Mr. Mark Harrison is proposing to construct four single
family residences on Lot 43, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision.
Lot 43 is located at 2500 Old Trail Road and is zoned for
four units. The lot is .70 of an acre in size and slopes up
to the north at approximately 10%.
The site utilities are road cut with a driveway slope that
averages 10% grade but exceeds 11% for the first 40 feet off
the property line. The site drainage is directed do.n the
center of the common driveway, which, combined with an 11%
grade creates the potential for an extremely hazardous
situation. The driveway and site drainage should be directed
away from travel surfaces and into the roadside ditch.
The driveway leading to the southeast unit has a short
stretch with a grade approaching 30% downhill slope into the
garage. This type of grade is virtually impossible to
negotiate, even over very short distances.
There is a minor encroachment into the front setback. A t5
foot front setback exists, with the further stipulation that
parking areas can be allowed in the back 15 feet of the
setback. The first 10 feet must remain open and
unobstructed. One of the four proposed guest parkinq spaces
encroaches into this 10 foot area. This parking space is not
a regi''red space, elimination of the space would eliminate
any setoack problem.
The buildings are approximately 1500 to 1700 square feet eact
and have an attached two car garage. The total lot coverage
is 19% and there is useable open space of 64%. Building
materials are horizontal lap siding, with cedar shake siding
accents, cedar shake roofs and wood casement windows. A
small area of painted standing seam metal roof is utilized on
each house.
A landscape plan has been proposed for the site that entails
revegetation of all disturbed areas with native grasses and
mulch, and includes 22 1-1/2" - 2" aspen trees and 5'-6' blue
spruce trees. A drip irrigation system will be installed for
tree maintenance.
The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a conceptual
review of this development proposal in February of this year
and passed the following comments along to the applicant:

Final Design Review
1. Cluster the units tightly on the site plan to
maintain more of a multi -family cluster feel; as opposed to
creating the feeling of separate single family lots.
2. Bring in a good quality landscape plan.
3. Minimize the cut and fill and overall amount of
grading on the site.
The site plan has been amended slightly, the units have been
drawn closer together and the driveway layout has improved.
A landscape plan has been submitted, however', the statt feels
it could use some improvement. The tree materials are below
or at minimum size recommendations. Minimum size for aspen
should be 2 inch diameter and spruce should be no smaller
than 6 feet in height. A variety of tree sizes throughout
the project would add a great deal of visual interest to the
landscaping. There are two small timber- retaining walls on
site, both less than 3 feet high. The cut and fill has been
reduced, but the overall grading of the lot is, still
inappropriate and needs revision.
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: The project, as designed, is in general
conformance with the zoning code of the Town of Avon. The
property is zoned for four units and each building is within
building height. There is a minor setback encroachment with
one of the guest parking spaces and this must be corrected.
6,12 - 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.
COMMENT: The building materials are, for the most part,
suitable and -)mpatible with Town guidelines, with two
notable except). -os: There is a small area on each building
that specifies a painted metal roof. The metal roof form is

alien to Wildridge and the Staff has concern with the meaning
of "painted". A factory color finish is available on metal
roofs and although susceptible to fading, is fairly durable.
If this roof is to be painted on site, the Staff has serious
concerns with its durability.
The Staff is also concerned with the size of landscape
materials proposed and feels a more imaginative use of
materials would be appropriate.
6.13 - The compatibility of the design to minimize site
impacts to adjacent properties.
COMMENT: Although the entire lot is subject to
regrading, it appears as though impacts to adjacent
properties are minimal.
6.14 - The compatibility of proposed improvement with
site topography.
COMMENT: The grading plan for this development still
needs serious work. The drainage off the driveway is
unacceptable to the Town and the slope percentage of the
driveway is inappropriate. A 11% driveway grade exceeds town
recommendations of 8%, and at one other point the grade
approaches 30%, which is not functional for driveway access.
The Staff feels that the type of de,,elopment on this lot
(single family detached buildings) is driving a lot of these
site problems. The solution to this may lie with the number
of buildings. Perhaps only three units of this type are
appropriate on this lot.
6.15 - The visual appearance of any proposed
improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring
properties and public ways.
COMMENT: This lot was zoned for four units with the
idea that multi -family development (townhouse units) would
occur. Although there is no criteria specifying unit type,
the visual appearance of this type of development must be
taken into consideration. The entire site is being regraded
with a non irrigated native grass seed proposed for
revegetation. A more appropriate visual element may be to
add formal sod treatment around each building.

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: The other multi -family lots surrourding this
property are currently undeveloped. This type of development
does have the potential to be very dissimilar to others in
the vicinity, but to what extent is very difficult to judge.
6.17 - The general conformance of the proposed
improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs of
the Town of Avon.
COMMENT: This proposal is proceeding through the
development process because the application was officially
filed prior to a Town Council imposed moratorium on this type
of development, so the project meets current Town Goals and
Policies.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The applicant has requested final review of this proposal
although he is aware of Staff concerns.
The Staff does have serious concerns and questions regarding
grading, access, landscape materials, metal roof materials
and the general ability of this site to carry four separate
units. As presented, the Staff recommendation is for denial
based upon those concerns.
If the Planning and Zoning Commission wishes to approve this
proposal, we would recommend the following conditions:
1. A revised grading plan be reviewed and approved by
both the Town Engineer and the Planning and Zoning
Commission. This grading plan should address both access and
drainage concerns.
2. the driveway be constructed to Town of Avon
standards.
3. The landscape plan be amended to include formal sod
planting and a variety of tree sizes.

Revised Site Plan
Conceptual Design Review
INTRODUCTION
In May of 1990, the Avon Towne Square project received final
design approval for a retail/office complex with a 5,000
square foot freestanding restaurant. The restaurant design
had not been finalized but the pad location was approved.
The Avon Towne Square parcel is a corner property, therefore
there are two front setback requirements of 25 feet, along
Benchmark Road and along Avon Road. The Planning and Zoning
Commission granted a setback variance to allow the restaurant
building to encroach 10 feet into the required -:5 root
setback along Benchmark Road. The pad location respected the
25 foot setback requirement from Avon Road.
The developers of Avon Towne Square have made minor
adjustments to the site plan since the final approvals last
May and would now like to move the restaurant closer to Avon
Road as well. This adjustment allows for a slightly improved
parking and loading situation for the restaurant site. The
new proposal indicates an 18 foot encroachment into the Avon
Road setback, leaving 7 feet of landscape buffer between the
building and the property line. The distance from the
building to the edge of Avon is approximately 100 feet.
This information is being presented as a conceptual review.
The applicant would like some feedback from the Planning and
Zoning Commission, prior to filing a formal setback variance
application.
STAFF_. COMMENTS
As this is a conceptual review, no formal Staft
recommendation will be presented at this time. Although
conceptually, we feel 15 feet should be the maximum
encroachment into the Avon Road corridor.
