Amendment/Zone Change, Public Hearing. (conte
Allender stated that there was a voice resolution done by the Town
Council a while ago that basically said that there could be no
subdivisions of undeveloped multi -family lots in Wild n dge. Staff,
was concerned about that, because this is a subdivisiion of a
multi -family lot in Wildridge. This matter %,.s taken to a Town
Council worksession and they encouraged the applicants to go
forward. This would be a down zoning from 6 units to 4 units.
Allender stated that the regulations do not stipulate findings so
much as it does criteria for the PUD. There are eleven criteria.
Allender stated that this particular project flits all the criteria
very well. He stated that the record should reflect that the
staff report contains all eleven criteria.
Staff recommendation, because this protect has received final
design review approval for two duplexes, that a reduction in
density is appropriate in this location, and that the applicant is
seeking relief from a situation beyond their control and the
conformance of the proposal to the eleven criteria listed, tbtatt
believes that a recommendation of approval is appropriate.
Page Anderson stated that she thought that Mr. Allender had pretty
well summed up any comments they would want to make.
Chairman Perkins opened the public hearing and with no public
input forthcoming, closed the public hearing.
Chairman Perkins stated he sees this as primarily a housekeeping
matter and he has no problems with it.
Jack Hunn asked if there was a definition in the Town's ordinances
that would stipulate that on a six-plex lot duplexes could not be
built. Tom Allender stated he believes that the torn f,4
definitions would preclude that. He believes that, multi -family
lots is three or more. Jack Hunn quetit,lons whethinr the Commission
may have made an error in approving two duplexes on a six -plow lot
in the beginning. He is also concerned about setting ■ precedont.
He stated this seems to be a unique situation, but in waking s
motion, he suggests that it be carefully worded so that the bot «a
not, opened again on the uncontrolled resubdivision issue.
Rhoda Schneiderman stated that she is in favor, 100%. of nnytninq
that down zones any lot in wildridge.
Allender stated that this originally came in for design review
prior to the voice resolution, so it predates shutting do dolls
off. This is basically Just cleaning up a situation tr%st to ktho

Rhoda Schneiderman moved to approve Lot 2, Block 5, PUD amendment
zone change, based on design criteria 1 through 11 as stated in
the staff report.
Sue Railton seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
Lot 29, Block 1. Wildridge Subdivision. K1ein.DWlex.Final Design
Review
Tom Allender stated that this prr,ject received conceptual design
review on February 16th, receiving positive comments, with the
only concern being with the mirror image. The applicant has addeo
dormers to the front elevation in an effort to soften the mirror
image. The lot is located on the east side of Long Spur Road. It
is approximately a third of an acre. It slopes to the west. it
is a pretty flat lot.
The exterior is predominantly finished in an antique white stucco
and 1 x 8 channel lap natural finish siding. Window trim will be
2 x 8 cedar, door trim wil be 2 x 4 cedar, the tascia will be 1 x
10 cedar, all with blue shadow stain. The roof form 1s an offset
gable, that will be finished with a 3200 Tamoco Redwood asohait
shingles.
The landscape planting plan appears adequate. It includes
planting beds on the street side of the structure and a small sod
area in the back. The majority of the lot will be left natural.
An automatic drip irrigation system 1s proposed for the planting
areas, the small sod area will he watered manually. Snow storage
and parking meet Town requirements. Site lighting has not been
addressed.
Allender stated that Staff does not see a problem with the mirror
or near mirror image of the duplex, which 1s offset. It would hot
be the only one 1n the area. Neither the design with the dormers
or the one without would visually detract from the neighborhood.
The house fits all the criteria of the Town. Staff recomrrngs
approval.
Michael Sanner stated that they would prefer the first design
without the dormers. He stated that if a mirror image is 0cwto
correctly it shouldn't detract from the nelghborftMid.
Chairman Perkins stated that he still has a probl N with .her• the

stated that the way the building is sited you would never have the
view of that vertical line straight on.
Buz Reynolds commented on the roof line, however, since he was
standing away from the microphones, it is not clear what he is
saying.
Jack Hunn stated that at the last meeting he questioned the amount
of asphalt in front of the southern garage door, wondering if it
would be adequate. He asked if it was adequate, especially when
the snow builds up in the winter. The applicant replied that
they felt it was adequate.
Hunn stated he is also concerned with the landscape plan. For the
most part three elevations of this home are unrelieved by
landscaping. There is no landscape texture against the home, witn
the exception of a few trees in the center. The applicant
replied that all the houses up there are naked. Hunn also asked
about the necessary retaining walls for the sod. Tom Allender
stated that it is a pretty flat lot. Jack Hunn stated that he was
suggesting two or three more trees on each side of the home to
relieve the perceived height of the house. Hunn stated.
regarding the mirror image, he thinks it could be improved. The
party wall is awkward. He agrees that the dormers do not help.
Sue Railton stated that what she would have really liked to have
seen is more height difference, otherwise she has no problem with
the mirror image.
Henry Vest questioned the size of the window trim being 2 x 8.
The applicant stated that this is Just the top band over the
windows. Vest asked why no automatic irrigation system. Tho
applicant stated that they would have a drip system on the trees.
but the sod area will be small enough for the use of a sprinkler
to cover the whole area.
Rhoda Schneiderman stated that she
inadequate. She feels that it is
well finish it. She stated that
add anything to the design either.

up to the developer to pretty

Patti Dixon stated that she thinks the house is tine. Her only

Discussion followed on how far out the eaves would come between
the two units. It was suggested that it come out 18 inches.
Jack Hunn stated that his concerns are mainly the minimum amount
of pavement and the lack of landscaping.
Chairman Perkins echoed those comments and added that he does not
think that they have solved the mirror image problem.
Sue Railton moved to approve final design review for Lot. 29, Block
1, Wildridge Subdivision with the following conditions:
Three more trees be added to each end, plus some low shrubbry.
A landscape plan, reflecting this be resubmitted to Staff for
approval.
2. The dormers be removed.
Rhoda Schneiderman seconded. Under ,'urther discussion it was
suggested that the overhanging eaves of the front party wall be
extended to match all the other overhangs on the building, and
this be an added condition.
Railton so amended her motion, Schneiderman seconded thF'
amendment, and the motion carried with Jack Hunn and John Perkin
voting nay.
Loi lz,. Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, valley
Wide Plumbing and Heating, Final Design Review
Tom Allender stated that Shepherd Construction ReSOUrses. MikF'
Etem, and Thomas D'Agostino of valley Wide Plumbing are requesting
final design approval for an 18 000 square foot
commercial/industrial building on Lot 12, Block 1, Benchmark. He
stated that this is the lot that the Commission went through the
variance hearing on at the last meeting. The variance was denied.
they appealed to the Town Council, the denial was upheld by th.
Town Council.
The proposed building is two stories, 27 teet high, metal Butler
type building. The exterior is finished in a Canyon Gray siding
with an 8 foot redrock colored stucco band around the botton and
on the gable torms over the doors. Allender stated that when this
was brought in for conceptual, all the siding was a white. They
have also added a gabled roof form over the entrances. The sign
was originally up on the side of the building, but they have
removed that. The roof will be a metal standing seam finished in

a stone white. The building would contain spaces for offices,
dispatcher, warehousing, servicing vehicles, a laundry and
restrooms. A security fence is proposed across the center of the
parking area. Staff has not seen a design for that. A minimum of
20% of the lot must be dedicated to landscaping and the applicant
has barely met that. They have agreed and the landscape plan
reflects landscaping in the right-of-way to further screen their
access and their parking. Twenty percent snow storage is needed,
figured on the paved area. They do not have that. They are
proposing, as a condition of this, snow melting the entire parking
lot. The owner is committed to doing that. He sees it as a show
case for his product. Staff suggests that this be a condition of
approval.
Allender stated that, as proposed, the project meets all Town
setbacks, lot coverage and height restrictions. The parking
provided exceeds Town requirements. The original parking plan
submitted had parking abutting the front property line and the
variance and appeal were denied. They have basically trip flopped
the parking. They still have paved to the front property line,
but that. will be an access drive, which meets the regulations.
This would be visually acceptable.
Allender stated that the proposed improvements appear to be
visually compatible with the neighborhood. As proposed, the
building will improve the appearance of the area. Paving to the
property line should be acceptable due to the absence of parked
vehicles at the property iine, the grade separation between the
road and the parking area, and the landscaping adjacent to the
property line.
Staff feels that this is a vast improvement over their original
submittal and recommends approval.
Ken Robertson, of Shepherd Construction Resources, stated that
they tried as best as they could within the scope of the program
and the budget to address each one of the last meetings comments.
He stated that they have an updated drawing of the proposed fence.
It is a security fence. It will be a vinyl coated chain link in
an olive green. He provided some spec sheets on site lighting
also.
Rhoda Schneiderman asked if the color rendering was accurate. the
applicant stated it was as accurate as he could get it.
Schneiderman stated that the color looked kind of taupe. The
applicant provided a sample of the color. Schneiderman stated sha
would like to see the color of the fence. the applicant stated

he did not have any samples of that, but it could be in colors.
Schneiderman stated that she felt it was a big improvement, design
wise.
Sue Railton asked where the signage would be. The applicant
replied that the signage would have to be studied and they will be
back with that.
Buz Reynolds asked about the slope of the roof. The applicant
stated that it is a half twelve slope . Reynolds was concerned
with the ice and snow falling over the garage doors and entry.
Schneiderman asked how high the fence was. The applicant stated
six feet.
Chairman Perkins asked if the landscaping plan meets the Town's
requirements. Tom Allender replied that it did. He also stated
that Stafr was originally concerned with the appearance of the
fence, but with recent events that have taken place up there,
Staff understands the need for that added security. Perkins asked
if Lhere was an irrigation system with the landscaping. Allender
stated that there was one to be installed by the landscape
contractor.
Sue Railton stated that she thinks it is a vast improvement.
Jack Hunn had some concerns about the snow melt. He stated that
he had some recent experience where the snow melt had been turned
off because the condominium association had found out how much it
cost, and if this thing clearly doesn't meet regulations with the
snow melt either failed or turned off in the future, he has *
concern about that. He is also concerned with where the water
would go. How will it be managed? The applicant stated that they
have a drainage design. There is a filter interceptor trench, and
the lot will be sloped to drain, and pickup the interceptor trench
and then go into a drain that daylights down the hill. Nur►n
stated that if there are no obstructions, that would w -►, but it
there are obstructions it will flow down to the intorsectian grid
posr,ibly out into the road and freeze.

this comes up short. He stated that he is very concerned with
the fascia image of the parapet at the very top of the street side
elevation. It does not turn the corners. You've got this flat
image and he does not know how it is supported, but from the side
elevations you will see the support system and the fact that it is
about two inches thick and there is no return. The applicant
stated that it is built out from the front of the wall about one
foot three inches and has a steel support and then a closure on
the bottom that prevents a view from the bottom side. He stated
that he could make sure that the closure is on the sides as well.
The snow accumulation was their concern.
Hunn stated that contrary to previous comrt,�nts about the building
not beinn visible from the road, he thinks it would be extremely
visible when you come down the road. Also, the image of the fence
concerns him. There is a lot of asphalt, not much landscaping,
and then the security fence is a predominant image. Selecting the
right color for the fence is important. He stated that he
understands budgets and recognizes the challenges they face, but
he is not comfortable that this building is as good as it could
be.
Buz Reynolds commented that the three garage doors make that halt
of the building look so funny. He stated that something needs to
be done to break up the flatness of that half of the wall. It was
suggested that they be the same color as the Canyon prey walls
instead of the white doors. Discussion followed on the matter of
the white fascia. If they take away the whits doors then the
white fascia would look out of place. Discussion followed on the
added formers. Copper would be used on the roofs of the dormers.
Patti Dixon stated that she feels it is an improvement from the
previous plan, but she dislikes the white glaring doors.
Henry Vest felt that the doors should be the Lanyon uray.
Chairman Perkins statad that he still has the Bare prObleus he hod
before, in that he regrets that they are starting to Met at**'

Lot 50 Block 4 Wildridge Subdivision, Lundell Single f -amity
Residence. Final Design Review
Tom Allender stated that Robert Lundell, architect and owner of
Lot 50 is requesting final design review approval for a single
family residence. This project went through conceptuai design
review on August 7, 1992 and received comments which indicated
that the project would be appropriate. There was some concern
with the metal roof.
Lot 50 is 63 acres in size and slopes toward the south at
approximately 27%. The lot is zoned SPA with a duplex
designation.
The building has three levels, with the lower level partially
below grade. The main entrance is on the third, or street level,
The building is a narrow rectangle with flat roofs on the lona
sides. A small metal gable roof runs down the center of the
structure. Stucr;o covered parapet walls are located at the ends
of the gable roof form. The house is approximately 2900 square
fe-t of habitable space. A large dock is located at the south eno
of the upper level and is connected :.o the lower level patio via a
metal circular staircase. A small circular town is adjacent to

that patio. The proposed exterior material is split faced
concrete block in a buff sandstone color with stucco accents, also
buff. The gabled roof form is a metal standing seam finished in a
forest green. Windows will be white clad casement, doors are two
panel, left in a natural wood color. Deck rails will be metal to
be painted either white or green. There are two driveways in this
proposal. One enters the property from the northeast and
terminates at the two car garage which is located under the
parking area that enters straight into the lot at the third level.
The Commission has approved one metal roof in Wildridge, after it
established criteria in a worksession, held on December 1, 1992.
The Commission stated that metal roofs could be considered in
Wildridge on a case by case basis if the following conditions are
met:
Subtle, low gloss colors are used.
2.
Seam spacing is at a
minimum of
18 inches.
3.
The roof material be
no lighter
than 24 gauge.
4.
The applicant supply
a large sample.
5.
Integrated trim pieces must be
utilized.
6.
A metal roof must be
compatible
with the arr;hitectural
design.
Allender stated that at the conceptual review concerns were raised
about the lack of t::rnaround space for cars in the drives. This
design still requires vehicles to back on to Longsun Lane.
Allender stated that it is e: cul-de-sac with a real limited amount
of traffic.
The area below the long drive and the area below the house are at
66% or more according to the grading plan. we have a requirement
that they not exceed two to one unless there is real strong
evidence it will hold at one and one half to one. He stated that
he thinks the final landscape plan will require a little more use
of retaining wall. The long drive is slightly over 10%, nut he
thinks this could be easily rectified.
Allender stated that the project does not appear to require an
unreasonable amount of site disturbance or regrading, lhere is
not a dominant design theme in this area of wildridge. This
residence will be unique to the area, but should be vieualiy

compatible with the neighborhood. Staff recommends approval with
the following conditions:
1. A revised grading plan be presented with the building
permit application to be reviewed by Staff. The grading plan
should rectify some of the discrepancies in tte grading plan and
make sure that nothing is over two to one.
2. The metal areas of the roof follow these guidelines:
Seam spacing be a minimum of 18 inches.
Material be no lighter than 24 gauge.
Integrated trim pieces must be utilized.
Bob Lundell stated that the drawing shown is not the grading plan,
just the landscape plan, and some of these issues have been taken
care of in terms of the grades. Also, they have added a
hammerhead inside the property line for the cars to turnaround.
This is reflected on the model provided. He provided a sample of
the proposed metal roof, stating that he thinks it is a 26 gauge.
He stated he wanted to use a propanel because the seams are nine
inches together, plus the application is a lot more cost
effective. Discussion followed on the sample provided, which was
very shiny. The applicant stated he would like approval on the
roofing material as presented.
Patti Dixon stated that she had no problem with the roof, even
though it is a little bit shiny. There is so little of it. She
feels it is inovative and would be an asset to the area.
Rhoda Schneiderman stated that she has always liked the house, but
she would like to see the criteria for metal roofs upheld. if the
applicant was at the very top of wildridge, with no possibility of
someone looking down on the house, maybe the shiny roof would not
make a difference, but in this case it is too shiny. It should be
the green color.
Henry asked about the triangle pop -out and how it would De
shedding. The applicant explained that it has a scupper coming
out the back. Mr. Vest like the design„ stating that it fits weir
with the lot. He stated he thought the metal roof was appropriate
for this house, but the applicant will have to follow the
guidelines.
John Perkins asked about the railing detail. They would be mesh,

probably a 4 x 4. Perkins stated that he would also require
upholding the specifications for metal roofs. He is also
concerned about the maneuverability out of the garage. Discussion
followed on this, and the retaining walls materials.
Sue Railton stated that she thinks it is a real interesting design
and her only comment is that it should be a matt finish on the
roof.
Jack Huhn thanked the applicant for providing a model. He asked
if a variance had been granted to allow the garage to encroach
into the front setback. Tom Allender stated that they are
actually right on the setback, not into it. Jack Hunn stated that
he is not sure that a car could be turned around in the hammerhead
provided. Architecturally it is an unusual home for Wildridge, it
is proposed with unusual materials. Discussion followed on the
proposed use of concrete block.
Huhn also felt that the applicant should meet the criteria for the
metal roof. He is uncomfortable with the proposed roofing
product. The applicant stated he would research other products.
Buz Reynolds stated that this is a highly visible roof. He stated
that he is not a proponent of metal roots in Wildridge.
Discussion followed on the rock size to be used. Reynolds stated
that the idea of moving this closer to the street is more
intriguing. It would make the house work. He stated that he
thinks it is a good idea to put boulders along the edge. Reynolds
stated that the Town Engineer usually recommends putting a guard
rail or some kind of wall.
Sue Railton moved to grant final design approval with the
condition that the roofing material meet the Town specifications.
Patti Dixon seconded. Railton amended her motion to state that a
sample of the roofing material be provided to the Commission
before final approval is given on the roof. Dixon seconded the
amendment. The motion carried with Jack Hunn and Buz Reynolds

The proposed structure has three levels w4t.h the primary dwelling
unit on the upper two levels and a locko°f on the lower level.
The lower level also contains the two car garage. The residence
contains approximately 3400 square feet of habitable space, 2850
in the main unit and 550 in the lockoff. The structure, as
proposed, appears to be within all Town height, lot coverage and
setback requirements. The exterior is finished in a beige stucco,
Doors and windows will be metal clad, in green or white. The
structure has a flat roof. The site plan shows a long driveway
with a constant grade of 10 percent with boulder retaining wall
used extensively. The majority of the lot is to be left in
natural landscape. The plan'_:ng materials proposed are dominated
by dry land species. Exterior lighting has not been discussed.
Allender stated that, as this a conceptual design review, no
formal Staff recommendation will be made.
Buz Reynolds asked if the windows would be set in. Russel Gies
responded they would be set in flush. Reynolds stated that he
thought this project would look very nice.
Jack Hunn asked what percent was the driveway. The applicant
responded that they did not exceed 10%. Hunn asked if the two
units were detached or attached. The applicant responded
completely attached. Hunn asked if the caretaker unit would have
covered parking. This will be a vacation home so the caretaker
will have access to the garage. Hunn asked what the flat roof
material would be. The applicant replied it would be a ballast.
Sue Railton stated she thinks it is exciting.
John Perkins stated that he thinks the window fenestration needs
some work. He stated the forms are great, but the window spacing
is atrocious. What you have gained with the forms, you've lost
with the way the windows were put in. He felt that it was very
schematic and needs more work.
Henry Vest asked about the lighting of the drive. Tne applicant
stated that there would be significant lighting.
Rhoda Schneiderman stated that it is a shame that this house is
going in a place where exterior night lighting is a no -no as this
house begs to be lit at night. She stated she likes the house.
but feels that landscaping will be real important. The applicant
stated that he doesn't see the need for any. The hillside is void
of landscaping. At this stage he would be very reluctant to say
that there will be any major landscaping.

in for final approval, however, there were a few glitches that

change for the duplex being built on Lot 33, Block 3, Wildridge.

product and the color change should be fine, therefore, Staff

Qt,he_r___pus i nesse (cont)
Jack Hunn asked if someone doing an in-home business should get a
special review use, with a public hearing, before they get a
business license. Tom Allender stated that this had been
discussed at the last meeting. Currently, as the regulations
read, that is correct. However, there are a lot of instances
where the home occupation might be an answering machine.
Technically, they need a special review use. The discussion last
meeting was regarding the impacts to the neighborhood. If there
are no impacts, no employees, no exterior changes,should someone
be required to go through the SRU process. Jack H4nn stated that
there is a day care being conducted that has not received a
special review use. Rick Pylman stated that the Staff was aware
of this and the party had been willing to come in for the special
review use. However, since the party stated that she was down to
one child a day, three days a week, Staft felt that this was not a
business. Staff will be working on changing the regulations so
that home occupations that consist of an answering machine, etc.,
only, will not have to go througk. the special revie•v use process.
Discussion followed on the matter of subdividing multi -tamely
lots. The Commission felt that criteria was needed.
Discussion followed on design guidelines procedures and directions
