PZC Packet 070590STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Lot 23, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wolff Warehouse Review of Special Review Use INTRODUCTION In July of 1989 the Avon Town Council approved Resolution 89-19, a Special Review Use to allow a residential unit within the Wolff Warehouse. The purpose of this special review use request was to allow for an on site management. Resolution 89-19 contained five (5) conditions of approval, with condition #3 stating "That this Special Review Use be reviewed the first meeting of February, 1990". The purpose of this hearing is to provide that required review. It is the Staff's understanding that the purpose of the review is to ensure that the warehouse and managers unit are in compliance with the other four conditions. Those conditions read as follows: 1. Use of the residential unit be restricted to the employee of the landlord and no subletting of that apartment is allowed. 2. That young children between the ages of 2 and 10 be prohibited from living on site because of the proximity of the traffic and hazards. 3. That this Special Review Use be reviewed the first meeting of February, 1990. 4. That the employee of the landlord be in fact the on-site manager. 5. That the clean-up of the site begin on or before August 1, 1989, and be substantially complete prior prior to September 1, 1989. STAFF COMMENTS The Staff is not aware of any violation of the above conditions. There have been numerous public complaints regarding traffic and parking on-site, and the Town of Avon has issued a citation for violation of the Zoning Code, however, these problems appear to be tenant related. It is the Staff understanding that the purpose of this residential unit was to allow control over on site tenant concerns. While the existence of this unit has not created any problems, it has not proven to be very effective at controlling tenant driven problems. Staff Report to the Planning and Zoning Commission July 5, 1990 Page 2 Lo- 23, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wolff Warehouse Review of Special Review Use STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommendation is to continue the Special Review Use approval for an on- site managers unit, maintaining existing conditions numbers 1, 2, and 4, of Resolution 89-19. The Staff would also request the applicant increase the utilization of on site management to eliminate on site problems. Respectfully submitted, Rick Pylman Director of Community Development Date QO _ Terri Jeppson, Secretary AkIc The Commission granted approval for continuance of the Special Re Use, with the first two conditions still in effect and the Special Review Use be reviewed in six months (the first meeting in February 13991) that the employee of the landlord be in fact the on-site manager and that the on -sit managers name and ne number be on record with the Community Development Department and that he be notified that he would be subject to periodic reviews or notification of problems on that property. vl �l •1 r•, STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION JULY 5, 1990 Lot 23, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Wolff Warehouse Dan Shelton for Vail Furniture Parking Review for New Retail Business In IC Zone District INTRODUCTION On June 11, 1985, the Avon Town Council approved a Special Review Use request by Blue Steel Gun Shop, Inc. to conduct retail sales and personal services on Lot 23, Block ', Benchmark at Beaver, Creek (Wolff Warehouse).

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Lot 7, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Michael Hazard for Dave Garton Garton Duplex Final Design Review INTRODUCTION Dave Garton is proposing to construct a duplex residence on a portion of Lot 7, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision. Lot 7 was originally 1.04 acres in size and assigned six development rights. In the early 1980's the first phase (3 units) of the Suncrest Townhome project was constructed on the western half of the lot. Lot 7 was replatted in 1986 in order to create units 1, 2 and 3 of the Suncrest Townhomes and surrounding common area. A new lot line was created •which in effect split Lot 7 into east and west halves. It is the east half of Lot 7 upon which Mr. Garton wishes to construct the duplex building. The lot is .485 of an acre (21,127 square feet) in size and the building coverage is approximately 4,550 square feet for a building ratio of 22%. The floor area of the building is approximately 6,800 square feet for a ratio of 32%. Nearly 1/2 of the lot area, or approximately 9,400 square feet is covered with impervious materials. Maximum building height is 42 feet. Based on the Town's building height definition, however, this building does fall within the maximum building height requirement with an average height o'` 35 feet. The house is located 30 feet from the west property line. The total distance from this proposed structure to any existing structures (Suncrest Townhomes to the west and lkyview Condominiums to the south) is over 60 feet. A landscape plan indicating species and size, with a revegetation plan for disturbed areas, and an irrigation system is included with the submittal. The building is a three story, wood frame building with gable roofs. Exterior buuilding materials include wood siding, stucco and machine cut cedar shingles. The wood siding (walls, fascia and eaves) will be vertical 1 x 6 tongue and groove cedar siding, stained with Olympic No. 716 "Natural Tone" semi -transparent stain. Windows and skylights will be white cladding wood windows. Decks will be constructed of 2 x 6 redwood with railings constructed of 2" x 2" vertical pickets. All exposed columns will be 12" diameter peeled wood logs. Those portions of the building finished with stucco will be color No. 10611 (color renderings and material samples will be presented at the meeting). Any exposed '.N , N STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Page 2 of 5 Lot 7, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Michael Hazard for Dave Garton Garton Duplex Final Design Review foundation concrete will be painted to match stucco color. At the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of June 19, 1990, the Commission tabled this application in order to give the applicant time to provide: 1. Plans (especially elevations) must be drawn to a greater level of detail. 2. A model of the building should be provided, or at a minimum, a roof plan must be provided which specifies all roof plains and pitches. 3. The applicant should look at providing a full two car garage instead of a one car garage. 4. A more detailed landscape plan should be provided which shows additional landscaping adjacent to the building. 5. The applicant should look at ways to reduce the impact of the overhanging (east side) deck and provide for some screening of the structural members if necessary. The deck should be much closer to natural grade. STAFF COMMENTS 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: This proposal is in conformance with all Avon Zoning regulations. 6.12 - The suitability of the improvement, including type and quality of materials of which it is to be constructed and the site upon which it is to be located. COMMENT: The type and quality of both building and landscaping materials are suitable with town guidelines. 6.13 - The compatibility of the design to minimize 1 "%, ^ ^ STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Page 3 of 5 Lot 7, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Michael Hazard for Dave Garton Garton Duplex Final Design Review site impacts to adjacent properties. COMMENT: The siting and landscaping of the building is sympathetic to the adjacent residential property. 6.14 - The compatibility of proposed improvement with site topography. COMMENT: The property slopes toward the south/southeast at approximately 20-25%. The building has been designed to step down with the slope of the hillside and appears to work well with the existing topography of the site. It does appear, however, that the length of the common hallway which connects the two halves of this building is causing the east unit to be sited in such a manner that portions of the unit hang out over the steep drop off on the east side of the lot. 6.15 - The visual appearance of any proposed improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring properties and public ways. COMMENT: The appearance of this residence from neighboring properties and public ways seems acceptable with the exception of that portion of the building which overhangs the steep part of the lot and will be highly visible to persons approaching or leaving the subdivision on Wildridge Road below. 6.16 - The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that values, monetary or aesthetic will be impaired. COMMENT: Staff sees no conflict with this criteria 6.17 - The general conformance of the proposed =mprovements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs of the Town of Avon. COMMENT: The proposal is in general conformance with adopted Goals, 1licies and Programs of the Town of Avon. STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Page 4 of 5 Lot 7, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Michael Hazard for Dave Garton Garton Duplex Final Design Review STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of this design review application with the following conditions: 1. The applicant should explore ways to reduce the impact of that portion of the building which overhangs the steep part of the lot. 2. A more detailed drainage and grading plan must be reviewed and approved prior to the issuance of a building permit. RECOMMENDED ACTION 1. Introduce Application 2. Applicant Presentation 3.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Lot 7, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Tony Seibert for South Harbor Development Final Design Review (Revised Duplex Pians) INTRODUCTION On February 7, 1989, South Harbor Development received Final Design Review approval for a 3,000 square foot duplex building on Lot 7, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision. The Planning and Zoning Commission approval included the following conditions: 1. Inclusion of adequate hosebibs on the building permit plans for the irrigation of the landscaping. 2.. The colors to be used are blue and grey with off-white colored stucco. 3. The chimney stacks must be increased in mass. On July 26, 1989, a building permit was issued for the above described duplex and the building foundation was poured. All work on the building was stopped at this point. On March 6, 1990, South Harbor Development received Final Design Review approval of a new duplex building to be placed on the existing foundation. The design of this structure changed substantially from the original approval. Most notably, the new building was an "over-under" duplex rather than a conventional side-by-side duplex. The Planning and Zoning Commission approval included the following conditions: 1. The applicant bring a final landscaping design back to the Commission for approval. 2. Any modifications to the entrance to the secondary unit be brought back to the Board. 3. The applicant study the window design, specifically the kitchen window in the main residence. 4. The applicant reconsider the colors and discuss them at the next meeting. 5. No exposed foundation walls be present and either stucco or stone be used to screen those. On April 3, 1990, the Planning and Zoning Commission granted final design approval for the landscape plan, approved the --, r STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Page 2 of 4 Lot 7, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Tony Seibert for South Harbor Development Final Design Review (Revised Duplex Plans final colors for the building and noted that previous conditions 2, 3, and 5, had been satisfied. Tony Seibert, representing South Harbor Development, has now indicated that he wishes to construct the original side-by-side duplex on the existing foundation. The design of the building , however, has changed to such a degree (from the original approval) that staff has recommended a new Planning and Zoning Commission review. The specific changes being proposed are as follows: 1. The basement in the east unit has been eliminated and replaced with an insulated crawl space. 2. The east and west units are side-by-side rather than staggered. 3. Several new windows and doors have been added to both units. 4. Roof pitch has changed from 7:12 to 5:12 and dormers have been added to the building. 5. Chimney covers have been added. 6. Exposed truss detail has been added to the fascia. 7. Sloped roofs over dining room have been replaced with flat roofs which also serve as walkout balconys from master bedrooms. 8. Additional landscaping has been provided 9. Both of the lower level decks are much larger than the original approval and closer to the river. The west side deck is now proposed to hang over the bank of the Eagle River. 10. It appears that the basement level of the west side unit includes a third dwelling unit. STAFF COMMENTS It appears that most of the proposed changes to the `\ STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Page 3 of 4 Lot 7, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Tony Seibert for South Harbor Development Final Design Review (Revised Duplex Plans) previously approved plans serve to add intarest and diversity to the building. Some of the changes, however, could have a negative effect on the character of the neighborhood (parking near road, large decks in rear, third duelling unit on duplex lot). STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends approval of the proposed building revisions with the following conditions: 1. The large parking area along the north property line and within the 10' "No Parking Zone" should be removed and replaced with landscape materials. 2. All disturbance associated with constructing the proposed improvements on this lot should not be allowed to encroach beyond the top of the river bank. This will minimize tKe potential for erosion and protect existing ripairian zone vegetation. 3. Both the east and west side decks should be reduced in size and pulled back away from the edge of the bank. 4. The basement level floor plans for the west unit must be redrawn to exclude the proposed third dwelling unit. The applicant should agree never to use this space for a dwelling unit in the future. The site plan must also be amended to remove the words "walkway to lower level apartment". RECOMMENDED ACTION 1. Introduce Application 2. Applicant Presentation 5. Commission Review 6.

Lot 7 is 1.21 acres (52,708 square feet) in size and is assigned two development rights. The proposed building coverage is approximately 2,400 square feet for a building area ratio of 5%. The proposed floor area of the building is approximately 2,700 square feet for a floor area ratio of 5%. The proposed maximum building height is 30 feet from finished grade to the peak of the highest ridgeline. The house is located approximately 25 feet from the front (west) property line and 13 feet from the side (north) property line. The current site plan shows an approximate 2 foot building overhang encroachment into the 25 foot front yard setback. A landscape plan indicating plant species and size, a revegetation plan for all disturbed areas and an irrigation system is included with the submittal. The building is proposed to be a two story, wood frame building. Materials include wood siding, stucco and red cedar shingles. Color and material samples will be presented at the meeting. The driveway will be covered with asphalt. STAFF COMMENTS More detailed information is necessary to adequately review proposed site drainage, grac ng and revegetation. Since this is a conceptual design review, no formal action will be taken at this time. . 14 STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 5, 1990 Page 2 of 2 Lot 7, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision Stephen Richards of Croft Hangartner Hangartner Residence Conceptual Design Review RECOMMENDED ACTION 1.
