PZC Packet 061687STAFF REPORT TO PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - 6/16/87 Lots 23 & 75, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wal-Mart Shopping Center - Design Review INTRODUCTION: At the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of April 21, 1987, Palmer Development Company was granted conceptual site plan approval and preliminary design review approval for the buildings for the Wal-Mart Shopping Center. The developer has finalized his plans addressing many concerns of the Staff and the Commission and is requesting final approval for the project. STAFF COMMENTS: A review of this submittal has resulted in the following information: *Total Site Area 388 6.84 ac. 100% Building Coverage 296 spaces 4.00/1000 Shown 73,887 sq.ft. spaces 4.08/1000 With Future Expansion 85,887 sq.ft. 1.97 ac. 29% Parking/Access Drives 3.37 ac. 49% Open Space 1.53 ac. 22% Snow Storage 31,000 sq.ft.

The main changes in the site plan were brought about as a result of problems encountered when trying to connect the City Market parking lot to the parking for the shopping center. An entrance to the Wal-Mart site has been added along the common property line and a sidewalk and retaining walls with landscaping has been added. To improve pedestrian circulation between the two sites, a ramped walk- way has been integrated into the retaining wall design. The two sites will still be joined along the back of the retail shops with a service drive. 4W l • 1 •li Staff Report to Planning & Zoning Commission - 6/16/87 Lots 23 & 75, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wal-Mart Shopping Center - Design Review Page 2 of 3 The entrances to the project have been widened to accommodate left turn lanes and sidewalks have been placed around the site. A bus stop is shown along Beaver Creek Place. Before the project can receive final approval, there are a few other items that should be addressed. Lot lines separ-ating Lots 23 and 75 must be vacated through the subdivision process. Since the City Market parcel will remain under the current o_iership, and the "Retail Shops" building straddles the common property line between the sites, a zero lot line setback must be obtained. Finally, some evidence must be submitted to the Town showing City Market's agreement involving improvements and changes to Lots 67 and 68. The applicant is also requesting final approval for the Wal-Mart and the retail shops. The buildings were granted preliminary approval subject to: 1. Building materials be indicated on plans; 2. Colors be approved and indicated on plans; 3. Comprehensive sign program for the project being submitted for review and approval. The applicant has submitted samples f the building materials and colors for Commission review. The colors and materials, if approved, should be indicated on the drawings prior to issuance of a building permit. At the meeting of May 5, 1987, the Commission approved a sign program for the project. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: If the Commission feels it appropriate, Staff recommends that final design review approval be granted for the project with the following conditions to be met prior to issuance of a building permit: 1. Complete subdivision process to vacate lot line between Lots 23 and 75, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek; 2. Obtain setback variance; 3. Submittal of a satisfactory grading and drainage plan for review and approval, that is compatible with the site plan and building elevations; 4. Supply documentation from City Market agreeing to improvements and changes to Lots 67 and 68; 5. That specific building materials and colors be indicated on plans. aw C1 Staff Report to Planning & Zoning Commission - 6/16/87 Lots 23 & 75, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wal-Mart Shopping Center - Design Review Page 3 of 3 RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: 1.

RW/mml ,.-WOWN STAFF REPORT TO PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - 6/16/87 Eaglewood - Meyers Ranch Annexation Overall Site Plan - Design Review INTRODUCTION: At the meeting of November 18, 1986, the Commission granted conceptual design review approval to the Eaglewood project which is proposed for the Meyers Ranch parcel west of Sunridge. That plan generally consisted of 5 buildings containing 211 co-idominium units served by 304 parking spaces. The overall site plan has changed since that time and the applicant is requesting approval of a revised plan for the entire project. The plan now shows 4 buildings containing 202 units served by 292 parking spaces. STAFF COMMENTS: This plan was presented to the Commission for approval at its meeting of June 2, 1987. At that time, the Commission directed the applicant to approach the Colorado Department of Highways and discuss the possibility of constructing another access from Highway 6 to another parking level in Buildings C and D. This additional parking level would make it possible to eliminate most of the surface parking for the project. Glenn Palmer of Contra Ltd., engineers for the project, has contacted the Colorado Department of Highways, and their preliminary indication was that two access points for the Eaglewood project would create unsafe traffic movements on Highway 6 and would not be approved. The Access Committee for the Colorado Department of Highways would make the final decision on this, but the developer would have to withdraw his existing permit and apply for the new configuration. Under this scenario, the developer would not have an approved access to begin Phase I of the project until the new applicatio^ --re processed, and this could conceivably preclude getting Phase I unde his summer. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: In order to maintain a reasonable amount of flexibility for future phases, Staff recommends that the Commission grant no more than conceptual approval for the overall site plan only, subject to: 1. Specific design review and approval of future phases of the project to include building design, site layout, parking, landscaping, etc.; 2. Conformance of each future phase with applicable Subdivision Regulations, Zoning requirements, and Design Procedures for the Town of Avon.

RW/mml STAFF REPORT TO PLANNING & ZONING COM14ISSION - 6/16/87 Lot 4, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Stone Creek Condominiums Unit #111 Deck Addition - Design Review INTRODUCTION: Edie Hudson, owner of Unit 111 in the Stone Creek Condominiums, has applied for design review of a deck that she would like to add to her condominium. The proposed deck would be of redwood construction, with a railing and possibly a hot tub. The applicant also proposes to replace the existing bedroom windows with French doors to provide access to the deck from the bedroom. A plan and elevation of the proposed deck have been submitted for Commission review. STAFF COMMENTS: This application does not appear to raise any zoning or setback issues. The area where the deck is proposed is shown as a "Limited Common Element" on the condominium map, and Staff feels that a letter from the Condominium Association for the project, granting permission to build the deck, should be submitted. STAFF RECO-114ENDATIONS: If the Commission approves the design review of this project, Staff would suggest the following condition be made a part of such approval: 1. The applicant supply the Town with a letter from the Stone Creek Condominiums Owner's Association, granting their permission to construct the deck for Unit 111, prior to obtaining a building permit. RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. Introduce project; 2. Presentation by applicant; 3. Commission review of submitted material; 4. Act on application.

Now that the project is nearing completion, the developer is requesting approval of a revised landscape plan. Some parking areas have been rearranged and they also propose to place a new freestanding sign for the project. STAFF COMMENTS: This new landscape plan shows a substantial reduction in plant material all around the site, but the areas of particular concern are the south property boundary along Nottingham Park and the recreation building. The pool area is planned to be surrounded by chain-link type fencing. The impact of the fence was to be softened by using abundant landscaping between the fence and the property line. All landscaping in this area has been deleted. There were also tree groupings planned along the south building face and the covered walkway. These have also been deleted. All planting around the recreation building have been deleted. In the previous meetings on this project, the Commission had emphasized the importance of landscaping along the south side of the property to mitigate the project's visual impact from the park. The applicant is proposing to replace the existing project identification sign. A sketch has been provided, but it is not detailed enough to review. Staff does not see any problem with this proposal, but would like to suggest that a dimensioned plan be submitted showing materials and colors for Commission review. Some changes to the parking areas have been made which affect the drainage plan for the project. Staff feels that a revised grading and drainage plan should be submitted addressing the changes. There were some angled parking spaces shown at the northeast corner of the lot. These spaces have now been changed to head -in parking. Due to the location of the property line in this area, there is not sufficient room for vehicles parked in these spaces to back out without using a portion of the adjoining lot. In order to avoid this problem, these spaces must remain as they are shown in the approved plans. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: With the number of items. left to be addressed on this plan, Staff recommends continuing this application so that the applicant can put together the information necessary to address the concerns of the Staff and Commission. Staff Report to Planning & Zoning Commission - 6/16/87 Lot 45, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Falcon Pointe Lodge - Landscape Plan Design Review Page 2 of 2 Staff offers the following items as a minimum of concerns that the applicant needs to respond to: 1. The lack of landscaping along the "park" side of the project, including the south face of the main building and covered walkway, the pool fence and the recreation building; 2. The need for a detailed plan for the proposed project identification sign; 3. Revising the grading and drainage plan to incorporate the new parking lot layout; 4. Return the head -in parking at the northeast corner of the site to angled parking as shown on the approved plan. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: 1.. Introduce project; 2. Presentation by applicant; 3.

The building was approved with stucco on the exterior, and a wood siding accent band around the flat roof. The applicant is here tonight to request approval for different building materials and colors. They propose to use rib face concrete block on the front of the building and T-111 plywood siding on the remainder. The small " he proposed finish color shadowbox" entry has also been deleted from the plan. T of the building will be a dark grey for the block, similar to the Barshop building, and the color for the plywood has not been indicated. STAFF COMMENTS: The changes being proposed significantly alter the appearance of the project and should be considered carefully by the Commission. The Commission should keep in mind that the building color also controls the coloring of the screening fences on the site, since the color of the wood slats in the fences are shown as matching the building color. During the Special Review Use approval process, the Commission, as well as the Town Council expressed concerns about the visibility of the site and based their decision to allow the use, in part, on the approved plan. If the Commission approves these proposed changes, Staff recommends that these items be passed along to the Town Council for review and comment. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends that the proposed changes to the building materials and colors be denied. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: Introduce project; Presentation by applicant; 3.

The program calls for the use of 2" diameter round tube frames with canvas signs. The program outlines sign sizes, locations, maximum number of signs, building identification signs and directories. Some minor improvements are planned for the building itself such as roof extensions at the second floor entries, and new fascia trim and paint. STAFF COMMENTS: - A review of the proposed sign program has resulted in the following information: Directories Bldg. I.D. Signs 1st F1. Tenant Signs 2nd F1. Tenant Signs 2 @ 2.67 sq.ft. ea 3 @ 13.7 sq.ft. ea 20 @ 10.0 sq.ft. ea 14 @ 8.0 sq.ft. ea = 7.1 sq.ft. = 41.1 sq.ft. = 200.0 sq.ft. = 112.0 sq.ft. TOTAL 360 sq.ft.* *This total does not include the freestanding project I.D. sign and directory which is approximately 96 square feet. The program allows up to 9 tenant signs on the north fascia and 9 signs on the south fascia, for a :total of 18 signs for the first floor. It also allows for up to 6 tenant signs on the north fascia and up to 6 signs on the south fascia for a total of 12 signs for the second floor. 4 tenant signs are proposed for the west side of the building. Sign area for the first floor tenants will be limited to 10 square feet each, and second floor tenants will be allowed a maximum of 8 square feet. The building identification signs will be located on the west end of the building, and on each of the two roof extensions being added to highlight the second floor entries. The program allows for individual backlighting of signs, and it also allows the existing "Food & Deli" signs to remain until December, 1988.

The improvements include: 1. Construction of a new parking lot west of the building to accommodate 144 cars; 2. Eliminating the existing entrance to the underground parking structure and relocating it to the west side of the building; 3. Rearrange parking lot on the north side of the building to accommodate 13 cars and 2 loading zones; 4. Construct a new main entrance on the west side of the building that will serve the new parking lot; 5. New roofs and walkways will be added for pedestrian protection from falling snow and ice. STAFF COMMENTS: Since Avon Center was completed it has been short on parking. This plan will provide 248 parking spaces for the project, and should greatly improve access to the Post Office as well as other businesses in the project. Many items that were left unfinished by the original developer will be finished under this plan. The new parking area is planned for the "hole" that exists west of the building. Some of the hole will be filled to create the parking lot and the slopes around the lot will be "laid back" and seeded. Landscaping around the parking lot is planned along with walkways connecting the project to the Town Center Mall. Drainage for the new parking lot is being directed to a detention pond on the west side of the lot. Staff would like to have an alternate drainage plan submitted that would address drainage in the event that ownership of the property is divided such that the detention pond area is separated from the parking lot. There is also a walkway planned to connect the new parking lot to the rear entrance to the building. Staff would like it t6 be noted on the plans that the grade of that walkway not exceed 1 foot vertical in 12 feet horizontal.

RW/1111111 STAFF REPORT TO PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - 6/16/87 Lots A, B, and C, Avon Center at Beaver Creek Sign Program - Design Review INTRODUCTION: The owners of Avon Center are requesting approval of a new sign program for the project. Most of the existing signage on the building will conform to the new sign program and there are several new directory signs and driveway entry signs that are proposed in conjunction with the parking and building improve - program outlines materials, total ments. The written portion of the new sign number of signs for the project, and maximum sign sizes. The plan portion of the new sign program shows all new directory and entry signs, sizes, materials and colors. STAFF COMMENTS: Tenant signs for the project will remain virtually unaffected by this new program. The program does limit tenant signs for the project to 16 and up to 10 of these may be 16 square feet, and the remainder shall be no more than 10 square feet (current program allows 20 square feet for tenant signage). Two signs are being proposed for the Post Office, and the applicant proposes to move the building identification sign, located on the north face of the building, to a lower position on the wall. The directory and driveway entrance signs being proposed are planned to direct traffic to the appropriate entrances now that the parking is being moved. The existing north entrance will have a directory along with the 2 new entrances to the west parking lot. These directories will have a sign area of approximately 6 square feet, housed in a stucco enclosure and mounted on a concrete base. A "street directory" is also being proposed. This will have a sign area of approximately 32 square feet, will be of the same construction as the other directories, and will be located just west of the north entrance. A "mall directory" located on the south side of the building is also proposed. It is identical to the other directories and has a sign area of approximately 10 square feet. The Commission has a great deal of flexibility in approving sign programs. With this in mind, Staff suggests that the Commission consider the following guidelines in reviewing this program: A. The suitability of the improvement, including materials with which the sign is to be constructed and the site upon which it is to be located; B. The nature of adjacent and neighboring improvements; C. The quality of the materials to be utilized in any proposed improvement; Staff Report to Planning & Zoning Commission - 6/16/87 Lots A, B, and C, Avon Center at Beaver Creek Sign Program - Design Review Pana :' of 3 D. The visual impact of any proposed improvement, as viewed from any adjacent or neighboring property; E. The objective that no improvement will be so similar or dissimilar to other signs in the vicinity that values, monetary or aesthetic, will be impaired; F. Whether the type, height, size, and/or quantity of signs generally complies with the sign code, and are appropriate for the project; G. Whether the sign is primarily oriented to vehicular or pedestrian traffic, and whether the sign is appropriate for the determined orientation; H. Landscaping. Landscaping is required for all freestanding signs, and should be designed to enhance the signage and surrounding building landscaping; 1. A minimum of five lineal feet out from, and around the perimeter of, the sign shall be landscaped; I. Setback Limitation. Freestanding signs shall be set back at least ten feet from all lot lines. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: If the Commission finds this sign program acceptable, Staff suggests that the following be addressed by the applicant prior to issuance of a building permit: 1. Specify the color for sign backgrounds; 2. Adhere to 10 foot setback for all freestanding signs; 3. Provide landscaping, per Sign Code, around "street" and "mall directories", as a minimum.
