FN
of Units, Con't,
Don mentioned concerns o units along Nottingham Roadcing woo tones and
stucco. He felt that this proposed color might not fit in.
Hackett stated that painting is for maintenance purposes and most owners preferred
to have a different rolor. They are trying to make the building look attractive
without making it stand out. Hackett went on to explain that many different
colors were looked at and considered, and they chose the grey tones.
Donaldson motioned to approve the application for Sherwood Meadows Condominiums
for exterior color change. The colors are to be reasonably close to Bison and
Granite of the Devoe Color Key chart, and the Commission understands that these
2 colors will be blended to get the desired color.
Gersbach seconded.
Passed unanimously.
Lot 65, Block 2, BM @ BC - Avon Executive Center - Conceptual Review
Foglanu stated that applicants have submitted a proposal for development on Lot 65
and have submitted a well prepared document with information on the project, along
with photos and elevations. As proposed, it is a 5 story building with surface
and covered parking with a combination of commercial and residential space. This
project does raise questions as to roads, access, mallways, pedestrian ways, and
is in the heart of Development District I. Informal discussions between Staff
and applicant were nct possihle until today, therefore applicant has just been
rade aware of the development plans and policies for that area. Staff suggests
that conceptual review be given on the site, design, and how the project fits into
that area. Staff feels applicant should be given some time to review the
Development District Goals and the comments regarding that district.
Jim Otis, applicant stated that Lot 65 is in the SC Zone District. The lot size
is 1.68 acres, or a little over 70,000 SF. The building height, with considerations
given to the STOLport, is well under 80 feet in height. Otis felt that this
proposal complies with thl- percentages of impervious and pervious materials:
pervious materials being 25.587 and impervious at 73.42 Otis stated that hu
provided a detailej and accurate landscaping plan, but the drainage has not been
addressed in detail. He felt that he could comply in every way with Staff
recommendations. He further explained that Lot 65 is the only lot that the Town
of Avon bisects in two with a proposed road, according to the Master Plan. He
stated he would do as much as he could to comply with the Town's Master Plan and
provide something that would be an economic benefit., but he could not do all of
that with a road through the middle of his property. He stated he would strongly
object and be very defensive about any action that would request an easement to
bisect that land down the middle. Even if the building were moved back to
accommodate the road, there would be no way that building would be economically
viable or operational. He felt his plan met with the town Ordinance as it exists,
but felt if a road were put through the property, it would be destroyed. He
stated he would like to speak with the Planner and Engineer regarding traffic
flow and roads.

Meeting Minutes
Lot 65, Block 2, BM @ BC - Avon Executive Center - Conce tual Review, Cnn't.
Otis presented pans an
explained alternative eve opment wit proposed road
on property. He explained that his proposed building is approximately
50,000 SF and consists of 5 floors. The first flour has 12,384 SF of
commercial/retail and the second and third floors have 11,184 SF each for office
and related office/commercial use. The fourth and fifth floors are residential
with 15,908 SF or enough space for 8 residential units. He stated he had not
considered the Fractionalization Ordinance for the residential units. 134 parking
spaces have been provided according to the town's parking requirements. There
would be 79 above -ground spaces and 55 underground spaces. The building itself
would be a structural steel frame building, and the exterior would be cement
plaster. The proposed color is buff with some wood accent on the building. The
first level would be mostly clear glass for businesses on that level.
Discussion followed on the lot, uses of the building and traffic flow.
Blair suggested that the applicant consider continuing this proposal to the next
regular meeting so that he would have time to review the Master Plan and policies
with Staff.
Otis agreed to continue his application.
Lot 1, Wildwood Resort - Holiday Inn - Preliminary Design Review - Continued from
Gersbach stepped down due to a conflict of interest.
Fogland stated that since the last meeting, Holiday Inn has added 16 parking spaces
to the north parkirg lot, the building footprint has been reduced in size, and
an additional floor was added to the middle section of the building. A walkway
was added to the bus stop and in the direction of Pizza Hut. Lane'zaping has
been increased to the north also.
Fogland reviewed Staff report with Commission and addressed items 1 - 15 that
need clarification before final approval can be given.
Bob Tatman, architect of the project presented drawings and renderings and explained
changes to the Commission and reviewed points from Staff report, particularly
outside lighting, signage, and the other points covered in report.
Blair suggested a continuance to the next meeting until all points of Staff report
could be reviewed and met by applicant.
Wood stated final approval at the next meeting should be no problem. He stated
applicant had expressed concerns of receiving feedback on building design. He
stated that the Buck Creek drainage issue would be addressed at the Avon Metro
District meeting, and that applicant has preliminary agreement on adjusting the
utility easement.
Dingwell motioned to continue the application of Holiday Inn. Preliminary
approval is given to the building design as presented, subject to the easements
and drainage considerations being worked out.
Landai.ier seconded.
Gersbach abstained.
Motion carried.

Tract P, Block 2, BM @ BC - Upper Eagle Valley Water & Sanitation District -
Conceptual Review - Water Treatment Plant
Gersbach rejoined Commission discussion.
Fogland explained that Upper Eagle Valley Water and Sanitation District is proposing
a water treatment plant, and that the town plans to construct an Event Center on
or adjacent to the treatment plant. Therefore the design process needs to be
coordinated between the WaLer Authority and the town. Conceptual review has been
requested, and Staff recommends that discussion be limited to general perception
of the site layout and building design.
Dave Krenek, representative of U.E.V.W.S.D. stated that the interior design of the
plant has been started and the design of the building exterior is underway. He
explained that the exterior is a block wall with concrete columns and beams
outlined with latex cementers coating. The west side of the building has soffeted
facia overhangs.
Donaldson felt that with the Event Center being built on top of the plant, the
Commission would need to see a joint presentation of building design, site layout,
etc., to make this a cohesive preseii�ation.
Commission members agreed to continue the application of the treatment plant and
Event Center until there is a joint submittal by the architects and engineers,
along with a more thorough application for the site and parking, as well as use
of the site in general.
Lot 63, Block 2, BM @ BC - Peregrine Village - Preliminary Plat Review
Bill James, Town Manager stated that Staff had met with Peregrine to discuss
parking and came to the resolution that the building was always designed for
360 parking spaces. Staff asked applicant if they would consider using town land
to build a parking lot, at no cost to the town, at the west end of the Peregrine
project. 31 spaces would be put on that site and would bring the total pa', -king
in and around the building up to 380 parking spaces. This would provide
additional parking for Nottingham Park and overflow parking for Peregrine. James
felt it was a reasonable and workable solution to Peregrine's parking problems.
Rick Larson of PPL, representative of applicant stated they have enough parking
for the minin,um standards.
Commission members agreed that tnis was best solution.
Dingwell recommended approval of the Preliminary Plat, subject to the parking
plan, for Peregrine Village Condominiums, subject to: A) The construction of
public parking facilities on the trangular portion of Tract G immediately
adjacent to the west end of Peregrine Village Condominiums. Design and
construction shall include landscaping, shall be subject to review and approval
by the Town of Avon and shall be completed at no cost to the Town of Avon;
B) Uses within the project shall be limited to general commercial such as office
retail, restaurants and bars, and time share condominiums or short term rentals.
Substantial changes from these general uses shall require re-evaluation and
approval of parking requirements and provisions by the Town of Avon. This approval
is subject to the above conditions and correction of minor technical errors.
Landauer seconded.
Passed unanimously.
