13, 1979 meeting, of the Town of Avon, Design Review Board. Those Board Members
present and acting were Alice Knipe, Cynthia Jordan, Hugh Price, Ken Richards

The minutes of the previous meeting were approved as written.
Architect Chris Kraebaker presented plans for developers of Avon Lake Villas;
Lots 43 and 44, Block 2. The 68 unit project will contain 4 one -bedroom
units, 48 two-bedroom units and 16 three-bedroom units totalling 72,816 sq.ft.
of floor area. Preliminary plans had been presented at earlier dates to the
Benchmark/Avon Architectural Control Committee. Recreational amenities will
include a 20' x 40' swimming pool, sauna and whirlpool, and two tennis courts.
There will be 136 above ground parking spaces. Snow storage and trash bins
will do away with 8 or more designated parking spaces. Additional snow storage
will be in the tennis court areas. Developers met with owners of Lot 42 and
agreed on street access. General storage will be contained under the manager's
unit and storage of flammable materials will be in a room next to the manager's
unit behind a 12" concrete wall. The developers agreed there would be no added
cost to the Town because of excessive snow removal or damage to roads. Each
unit will contain one fireplace. Pitch of the cedar shingled roof will be
4 4/8 to 12. Outside surface materials of the buildings will be a mixture of
wood siding (a light brown and dark brown example were shown) and stucco
( Brand). The Board requested Mr. Kraebaker to submit, at a later meeting,
a sample of the stucco and/or a location where it could be seen under construction.
There will be wood railings and heavy timber on all stairs and decks. It was
revealed that each unit, excepting 4, will have one or more lock off bedrooms
which presented a problem as to additional parking spaces. It was noted that
this is a zoning question which will have to be resolved and the developer
notified. It was suggested by the developer that if this was a great obstacle
as to receiving a building permit, the building plans could be altered so that
a window would replace the sliding glass lockoff door. Lighting in the parking
areas and along walkways will be 36" high indirect fixtures. Lighting fixtures
will also be at each unit entrance and at each elevator at all floors. Board
Member Hugh Price made a motion to accept the site plan and the design of the
building as stated with the following conditions:
1. Add sodded area with sprinkling system,
2. Add 5 to 6 Spruce Trees to planting area at Beaver Creek
Boulevard side,
3. Raise main entrance to berm, illuminating it more fully,
4. Raise planted area between parking spaces with
railroad ties.
The landscaping plan was approved with the above conditions.
The price of a two-bedroom unit in this project containing approximately 1,045
sq.ft. will retail for approximately $112,000.00 Ground breaking is tentatively
planned for April 15, 1979 with occupancy as of December 1979.
