Store. Community Shopping Center Trash Compactor and
Building Modification Design Review
Wright stated that Wal-Mart Stores has requested approval of
two minor changes for their project. The original design
review approval had a curved metal frame, with neon lighting.
They are requesting that this be deleted. In addition, they
are asking for approval for a screening fence for a trash
compactor that will be located on the south side of the
building. The fencF is about six (6) feet high, chain link
with vinyl inserts. Wright stated that Joe Fleming was
present to answer any questions the Commission might have
regarding these two matters.
Fleming stated that he was representing Palmer Development
and Wal-Mart.
Cuny asked what color the vinyl inserts would be.
Fleming stated that they were planning to leave that up to
the architects, but they probably would be white.
Cuny asked if there would be a problem to have the architect
present their choice to the staff before installing.
Fleming stated that this would be no problem.
Blair suggested that the color should be something to match
the building.
Fleming stated the the color of the building would probably
be hard to match and would fade in time. Discussion followed
on color possibilities.
Doll moved to approve the request as written and further,
that prior to the installation of the screening for the trash
compactor, the architect appear before this Commission to
settle on the color of the screening with a sample.
Landauer seconded.
Doll amended his motion to state that the architect appear
before the Commission with samples of materials that will be
compatible with the color scheme of the building.
Landauer seconded the amendment.
The motion passed unanimously.

Meeting Minutes
LOTS 23/75 Block 2 Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wal-Mart
Store Community Shopping Center. Placement of Satellite Dish
Antenna Design Review
Wright stated that Wal-Mart Store has requested approval to
place a satellite dish antenna on the roof of the building.
The antenna is a part of Wal -Mart's corporate communication
system. This item was not addressed in previous design
review approvals. The proposed dish is approximately six (6)
feet in diameter, and mounted approximately two (2) feet
above the roof of the building. Wright stated that Joe
Fleming would answer questions regarding this matter.
Discussion on the possibility of placing the satellite on the
ground rather than the roof followed, since the staff feels
that there would be a screening problem.
Fleming stated that there is not enough room at the back
(south side of the building) to place the satellite dish
antenna.
Discussion followed regarding the conformity of this request
with the Code and the visibility of this satellite by current
and future residents in the area.
Landauer moved to defer action until the Applicant can come
back with additional information, i.e. screening at the
present requested location or a plan +or relocation, or
reasons why it must be on the roof.
Doll seconded.
Further discussion followed.
The Chairwoman called for a vote on the motion.
Motion passed with Blair, Landauer, Gersbach, Reynolds and
Doll voting aye and Donaldson voting nay.
