Lot 25, Block 2, Benehmarb;._at Beaver Creek Suogjyjsion, Christie
Lodge. Revised Sign Program,._Design Review
Tom Allender stated that Christie Lodge Owners Association,
represented by Phyllis Lilischkies and Annie Egan of American
Awning, have applied for design review of a new sign program. The
current program is no longer applicable. The new proqram requiras
individual signs to be located on the vertical portion of the
awnings that will be attached to the terra cotta fascia band. Size
is proportional to the individual business' frontage, regardless
of frontage, the maximum size is 30 square feet per business and
the minimum is 10 square feet, however, if a business wants a
smaller sign, that has been included in the sign program.
The sign program acknowledges the building identification stens
that are already in place. There are provisions for temporary
signs, which is similar to what is allowed under the T7wn
Ordinances.
Allender stated that he sees no problem with any of the Town

Guidelines, regarding this sign program. The sign program
provides some uniformity for the project. The sign program
favorably meets all criteria that the Commission needs to
consider.
Phyllis Lilischkies stated that they wanted to keep the building
to as simple a color scheme as possible. All signage will be the
terra cotta and white, except for a business logo it required.
Allender then described the materials to be used. The signs
Placed on the awnings attached to the terra cotta fascia shall be
of a fabric material placed on consistently formed steel awning
typq frames. The signs will be back -lit with low intensity
florescent tube lighting. The bottom of the signs will have
plastic egg crate soffit material. The color of the field awning
sign will be Terra Cotta Supreme #620 as manufactured by American
Awning. All lettering shall be in vinyl die cut, silk screened or
similar material. Each business is encouraged to include its own
logo or logo type. Color schemes must oe muted and in harmony
with the overall building color schemes. Helvetica Medium
lettering type is recommended for signs that do not have a
preferred logo or logo type. White lettering ',s recommended for
signs that do not have a preferred color type.
After some discussion by the Commission members, Buz Reynolds
moved to approve the sign program for Lot 25, Block 2, Benchmark
at Beaver Creek Subdivision , as submitted.
Sue Railton seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
Lot 2. Block 5, Wildrjdge Subdivision, Landscape and Siding, Final
Design Review
Tom Allender stated that the Commission tabled this item at the
January 5th meeting because the applicant was not present. This
project received final design review approval in April of 1991.
During that approval there were a number of conditions included.
Two of which required the applicant to provide more information
regarding the landscaping and the eiding. The applicant has
provided a new landscape plan, which is quite an improvement owt
the previous plan. They have also provided more Intormatlon on
the siding. The remaining conditions placed on the approval ars
to be reviewed at a Staff level. Allender stated that thr«
project his received final design review approval for all ripe±:tc
of the project, except landscaping and siding. Staff fees that
a Staff recommendation is not necessary, although the landscape
plan looks very good.

Discussion followed on the siding to be used. Buz Reynolds stated
that he had a concern with the wafer board product and would
rather see a hard board product. The applicant responded that
Miles Homes guarantees this product for twenty years. It was
noted that this material has been used on other projects in
Wildridge and in Eaglebend.
The Commission thought that the landscaping plan was well done.
Jack Hunn asked if there would be an automatic irrigation system.
He stated that in the past the Commission has approved plans
without automatic irrigation systems for single family residences,
but for multi -family residences that is a pretty good burden.
The majority of the applicants felt that there should be one.
Discussion followed on the height of the retaining wall and how it
would be constructed. It will be constructed of boulders and the
boulders will be higher to act as a wheel stop in the parking
area. Discussion followed on snow storage.
Rhoda Schneiderman moved to approve the landscape plan and the
siding as submitted for Lot 2, Block 5, Wildridge Subdivision.
Henry Vest seconded.
Under further discussion, Tom Allender asked if the Commission
wanted to include the condition of an automatic irrigation system.
Rhoda Schneiderman amended her motion to include an the
requirement of an automatic irrigation system. Henry Vest
seconded the amendment and uhe motion carried unanimously.
Lots 2/4, Sunroad Subdivision. Dennyls_RestaurantI___Design Change
Request
Tom Allender stated that Doug Dowd, for Denny's Restaurant is
requesting approval for a modification to the approved deisgn of
the restaurant. The request is for the removal of the diagonal
wall located on the southeast corner of the building, between the
two entrances.
This request was brought to Staff informally a while ago and was
presented to the Commission. The Commission denied this request
at that time.
Mr. Dowd, stated that he was not privy to the design review
process when it was approved, but the wall was omitted in the
construction because the contractor was under the belief that it
had been approved to be omitted. T'4 major reason for the
omission of that wall is the traffic fl,- to the restaurant and

'® the circulation of the traffic cominq in and out of the
restaurant. The secondary reason for requesting the removal of
the wall is that it will create a separate little cubby hole of
the east entranr,!:� of the building. That east entrance, if
separated from the exposure to the south, will develop more ice,
more packed snow, than the south entrance. The fire department
also had concerns regarding access because of the wall. He stated
that the post that is there now is skimpy and he does not like it.
He stated that he would feel much more comfortable with a more
bulky post, to give it more weight. Considerable discussion
followed on how they would make the post bulkier, or what else
they could do. Echoing the same corner treatment of the other
corners of the building was also suggested. Considerable
discussion followed on possible options.
It was suggested that maybe this should be tabled until the
applicant could come up with a satisfactory solution, other than
the current post that has been constructed.
Sue Railton moved to table this application until more intormatron
is provided.
Henry Vest seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
