Zoning Amendment - Ordinance 85-15 - Amendment to Chapter - 17_22 of 11unicigal Code of the Town of Avon to Limit_ Fireplaces in Connection with Fractionalization Public Hearing Wood stated that public notices were posted as required and there have been no written comments received. He explained that concern had been expressed regarding the effect of fractionalization on air quality in the town area with fractic alization allowing up to 4 times as many units with potentially as many fireplaces. Ordinance 85-15 is an attempt to address.. this. This Ordinance was adopted by Council on first reading at the June 25, 1985 meeting and was then referred to the Commission for public hearing and recommendation prior to final Council action. Wood reviewed Staff comments, 1-3 with Commission along with Section 17.22.030 of Ordinance 85-15, Limitation on Fireplaces. Blair opened public hearing. There being no one wishing to be heard, the public hearing was closed. Blair clarified that proposal states that there would be one fireplace per residential unit, so if there were 4 Fractionalized units from 1 unit, there could only be one fireplace in any of those 4. Donaldson stated he was happy to see this Ordinance, but felt it could use a little more work. He stated that a resident had informed him that the State is getting ready to adopt a statute regarding combustible units which would affect what is allowed on the market. He felt it would be beneficial to obtain a copy so that redundancies could be avoided. He further stated that 1 fireplace per Development Right is too little, and would rather- see 2. He would also litre to see written into Ordinance what type of fireplace is allowed. He felt fractionalization might be penalized if someone else could put 7 fireplaces in a single family home. Commission members agreed with Donaldson. Blair reiterated points made by Commission: 1) Council may wait tc obtain additional information on State statutes; 2) look into atmospheric conditions of this valley; 3) consider Planning & Zoning July 11, 1985 Page 3 of 6 Meeting Minutes Zgning Amendment - Ordinance 85-15 - Amendment to Chanter 17_22 ofthe Municigal Code of the Town of Avon to Limit Fireplaces in Connection with Fractionalization - Public Hearings Cont_ other types of heating apparatus and fuel to be included; and 4> consider number of fireplaces in fractionalized project and any other type of unit.

Blair stated that consideration should be given to ntaw officers of the Commission at the next regular meeting. That would include chairman, vice chairman, and secretary position.

Concerns were mentioned of the Anthony International Ltd. sign at Avon Center which had only been given a temporary 30 day approval, which expired April 25, 1985. Williams stated that he has had ongoi.ng conversations with Vino Anthony and that more assertive measures would have to be taken to have the sign removed.

He stated that they planned to have the sign completed before the vintage car race being held July 19--215t.

Block Z. BM @ 991 Wynfield Inn - Design Review _ Con_t_ from 6/27/85 Regular Meeting QW Wood reviewed proposed project in relation to number of units, amenities, construction, materials, and proposed signage. Wood stated that applicant has made effort to address concerns expressed at previous Commission meetings. Carl Pickett of Merrick and Company, architect for the project pointed out changes made to the site plan since the submittal, and that some dealt with the plat and some with owner decisions. Pickett presented plans and reviewed those with Commission. He stated that pool had been moved from center care location to a better sun location. Proposal includes a 6 foot high stucco screen wall, which is same stucco as building, directly in front of the pool, and have landscape buffer between wall and public sidewalk. 10 foot sidewalks have been incorporated along entire new street and on Beaver Creek Boulevard, and to future Savoy Square and Lot 1. Pickett presented revised plans as of July 11, 1985 and reviewed and explained those to Commission regarding roof design iii the elevation plans, and pool and jacuzzi area. Discussion followed on sidewalks, grading and drainage, and materials to be used. Landauer felt that project needed underground parking with more greenspace above. Gersbach did not feel jacuzzi and pool were in convenient location for guests. Donaldson questioned the safety of the pool enclosure. Discussion followed on the large amount of surface parking. Donaldson felt fascias were too shallow and the 1x.8 window trim would warp and give it dimensional instability. Landauer questioned the treatment of the exposed air conditioning vents. Pickett stated that they had not yet chosen a color fcr that, but they could be painted to match the exterior. Blair felt that the east elevation facing Avon Road/I-70 was was massive and plain. Discussion followed. Pickett stated that they had put 2 offices in the octagon shaped main administration facility: 1 for management and 1 for group sales. The size of the building has increased to 24 feet on sides and 58 feet across. Discussion followed on landscape plan and Commission felt that some materials, regarding size, were misleading and felt more variety was needed along with placement. Hary Champlin, vice president of development for Aircoa stated that this was a far superior product to the Holiday Inn in Vail with regard to landscaping, elevators, upgraded "-"y 0" Planning & Zoning Meeting Minutes July 11, 1985 Page 5 of 6 Lot 21 Black is RM @ PC (Resubdivision of Lots 29-32.

Champlin re-emphasized that there are certain trade-offs needed in order to make this project work: and in order to do that it must be economically viable. Commission commented on curb and gutter. Wood reviewed plans with Commission and explained where the location would be and stated curb and gutter had been well addressed. Blair then gave overview of Staff and Commission comments. Donaldson suggested that application be continued or tabled in view of the numerous problems the Commission had discussed. Wood then reviewed Lamont's Master Plan comments with regard to Wynfield Inn. Champlin stated that project had been put on a fast track. He stated he would accept decision to delay project in interest of bringing a consistent project into town. He stated that they could not expand the size of the site, decrease density, increase height of building without incurring unjustified costs, and could not go to underground parking, which again is unjustified economically. He stated that if Commission continues application, that they need concise direction so they can respond to it and that the Commission recognizes the parameters that they have to work with. He stated that if they could not satisfy the Commission because they could not exceed those parameters, they would rather have the project denied. Blair itemized some concerns of Commission stating: 1) consider appearance of building; add features to east elevation; 2) cover metal air conditioning grills; 3) sidewalks 10 feet in width; 4) more landscaping needed for parking lot along with varied placement: 5) design for bus shelter and freestanding sign; 6) contingent on final plat by Town Council; and 7) contingent on adequate Development Rights on site. Donaldson felt that facade work was being done on project rather than massing. Champlin stated that if building is not aesthetically acceptable, they needed to provide an alternative. He felt it was very difficult to work with a "box,". Donaldson disagreed and felt there was an infinite variety of treatment that is attractive. Pickett then commented on Commission suggestions. Further discussion and suggestions were made between applicant and Commission.
