Conceptual Review
Page 1 of 6
INTRODUCTION
Gerry Flanigan on behalf o` Equity Concepts Realty Corp. of
Englewood Colorado is requesting a conceptual or informal
review of a mini -warehouse facility on Lot 25, Block 1,
Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision.
The lot is zoned IC, Industrial Commercial, and "warehouse"
is an allowed use in that zone district. The intended
puropose of the IC zone district is to allow "light
industrial and manufacturing uses, wholesale outlets for
proper operation of the industrial area, warehousing and
storage facilities." Residential units are allowed as a
Special Review Use "when used in connection with a business
operation."
Lot 25 ;s a 1.41 (61,500 sq.ft.) acre site with a 25'-0"
drainage easement along the eastern property line. The front
portion of the lot is moderately sloped towards the road. The
rear or north portion of the lot slopes steeply up towards
forest service land. The property is sided by the Mountain
Center project on the west and an undeveloped parcel on the
east.
Approximately 35,000 gross sq. ft. of warehouse area and an
ancillary office/onsite manager's unit is proposed. Required
parking for a warehouse use is one per 800 sq. ft.
35,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space would require 43 parking
spaces or aproximately 17,000 sq. ft. of site area for
surface parking and drives.
The site plan submitted indicates four parking spaces. The
site plan is intended to function such that vehicles
accessing the warehouse space park in the drive aisles
between the bu-idings while loading and unloading. The site
layout does provide for a loop of traffic flow so trucks are
not required to back out onto the public right of way.

6.10 DESIGN REVIEW CONSIDERATIONS
The Commission shall consider the following items in
reviewing the design of a proposed project:
6.11 THE CONFORMANCE WITH THE ZONING CODE AND OTHER
APPLICABLE RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE TOWN OF AVON
COMMENT• As presented this proposal would require a sideyard
setback variance, a parking variance and the transfer of one
Residential Development Right onto Lot 25, in conjucntion
with a Special Review Use in order to allow for the onsite
managerz unit that is proposed.
6.12 THE SUITABILITY OF THE IMPROVEMENT, INCLUDING TYPE AND
QUALITY OF MATERALS OF WHICH IT IS TO BE CONSTRUCTED AND SITE
UPON WHICH IT IS TO BE BUILT.
COMMENT: Proposed exterior materials are standing seam metal
roof, horizontal cedar siding and painted concrete masonry.
Rooves are hipped and gable. Exterior design appears to be
compatible with other development in the vicinity.
6.13 THE COMPATIBILITY OF THE DESIGN TO MINIMIZE SITE IMPACTS
TO ADJACENT PROPERTIES.
COMMENT: Given the information presented there does not
appear to be any unusual or significant impacts.
6.14 THE COMPATIBLILITY OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS WITH SITE
TOPOGRAPHY.
COMMENT: Detailed topographical information has not been
submitted comments are based on the information presented.
Offsite drainage will have a signifcant impact on the site
design of this lot. Flood waters flow accross the lot,
through the easement, to a culvert underneath Nottingham Road
and into the I-70 right of way. The right of way appears to
have had significant siltation buildup and may not be
adequate to detain drainage from backing up onto the lot and
onto Nottingham road. A thorough drainage study and report is
stongly encouraged as well as coordination with the Colorado
Department of Highways.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
This a conceptual/informal review and no formal staff
recommendation is submitted at this time. The following are
considerations for the Commission in regards to this type of
development.
1. The site is highly visible from Interstate 70. A well
developed landscaping plan will enhance the area image as
well as the view from I-70.

2. A stepped retaining wail in the front setback in
combination with landscaping may have a more desirable visual
appearance.
2. Security fencing is typically required for this type of
warehousing. Type and style of fence may have a significant
effect on the character of the the project.
3. Offsite drainage will have a signifcant impact on the
site design of this lot. A thorough drainage study and report
submitted with the design review application as well as
co^rdination with the Colorado Department of Highways will be
important to properly evaluating proposed site development.
5. As presented this proposal will require a sideyard
variance, parking variance, special review use and a density
transfer. Addressing these approvals, paticularly a parking
variance prior to the application for Final Design Review may
help alleviate the need to significantly alter a fully
developed design proposal.

INTRODUCTION
At the regularly scheduled meeting of the Planning and Zoning
Commission April 18, 1989 Mike Hazard on behalf of Bruce
Allen requested Design Review Approval for proposed
revisions to the approved landscape plan and the addition of
two gas meter shed rooves on the west elevation. The shed
rooves were approved but after some discussion the applicant
requested that the landscape revisions be tabled. The
Commission voted to continue the item.
The amended landscape plan proposed to delete low landscaping
elements, at the drive entrances and adjacent to the project
identification sign. The taller elements at the drive
entries, being Green ash trees, were to be maintained.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
No information has been submitted since the previous
application therefore the recommendation remains the same as
put forward in the April 27, 1989 report:
If the Commission has adequate findings, approval of the
deletion of the previously approved landscaping is not
recommended.
