STAFF REPORT TO PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - 8/18/87
Community Shopping Center
Lots 23 & 75, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek
Design Modifications - Design Review
INTRODUCTION:
The applicant has requested design review approval for a modification to the
previously approved site plan for this project. In general, the modification
would eliminate the retaining wall and handicap access ramp between City Market
and the shopping center. Other changes include increasing the grades in the
parking lot from 2% to about 31-,%.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff does not: feel that the proposed changes will impact the appearance or
function of the site significantly.
The elimination of the retaining wall and handicap access between the shopping
center and City Market will allow the project to be constructed within the
confines of the property boundary. Landscaping in this area will not be reduced
and may be enhanced due to the significant growth of existing trees which would
have to be removed under the currently approved plan .
The revised parking lot grades would be very close to existing site grades.
This will reduce the amount of fill material to be imported and provide better
connections to adjoining properties. The increased grade should not result in
functional or maintenance problems even during winter months.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission fin.o that the proposed
modifications will not have a significant impact on appearance or function of
the Community Shopping Center to be located on Lots 23 and 75, Block 2,
Benchmark at 'Beaver Creek, and that approval be granted to eliminate the
retaining wall and access ramp between the shopping center and City Market,
and to allow an increase in parking grades from 2% to 31'/ .

Lot 41, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek
Beaver Creek West - Spa & Deck Addition
Design Review
INTRODUCTION:
Rocky Mountain General has applied for design review of a freestanding deck and
spa to be located on Lot 41, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek. The deck and
spa is proposed for a courtyard between two of the buildings at Beaver Creek
West. The deck and spa will be screened with an 84" high cedar privacy fence.
The deck, spa, and equipment room will take up an area of approximately
16' x 18'. Plans submitted include a site plan, floor plan, and elevation.
STAFF COMMENTS:
The site proposed for the deck and hot tub appears to encroach on one of the
required parking spaces for the project and Staff would recommend that the
"alternate site", indicated on the site plan, be used.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
If the Commission approves this application, Staff recommends the following
conditions be made a part of that approval:
1. That the applicant work with Staff on final location of the deck and hot
tub in order to avoid any zoning or building code violations.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
1. Introduce project;
2. Presentation by applicant;
3. Commission review of submitted material;
4. Act on application.

Colorado Mountain Express - Request to Delete
Asphalt Paving for Temporary Parking Lot
INTRODUCTION:
On October 21, 1986, the Commission granted final design review approval for
their vehicular storage lot, located on Lot 17, Block 1. This lot has been
under construction since that time. Improvements include: grading, drainage
treatment facilities, fencing, lighting, landscaping and paving. At this
time, the grading and drainage treatment facilities are complete and the
fencing is almost finished. The aoplicant is here to request that they be
allowed to forego the asphalt paving due to the cost involved and the
temporary nature of the lot.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff has been working closely with Colorado Mountain Express to finish the
project. Since the lot is private and fenced, Staff does not feel that the
asphalt is necessary. Drainage treatment facilities are already in place and
the existing grading and surface of the lot appear to be adequate.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
If the Commission grants this request, Staff would recommend that the following
conditions be made a part of that approval:
1. That all fencing and gates, as shown on the approved plan be completed;
2. Landscaping as shown on the approved plan be completed and all areas
disturbed by the initial grading for the parking lot be revegetated;
3. Lighting be completed;
4. Drainage ditch along Metcalf Road be restored;
5. (The Commission may wish to place a time limit for completion of above
items).
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. Introduce project;
2. Presentation by applicant;
3. Commission discussion of request;
4. Act on request.
Respectfully Submitted,
