Lot 23 is .46 of an acre (20,038 square feet) in size and the building coverage i� approximately 1,450 square feet for a building area ratio of 7%. The floor area of the building is approximately 2,650 square feet for a ratio of 13%. Nearly 1/6 of the lot area, or approximately 34,000 square feet is covered with impervious materials. The maximum building height is 34 feet from finished grade to the highest ridgeline. A landscape plan indicationg plant species and size has been provided. The irrigation system as indicated on the plans will include drip irrigation to the larger species. The building is a two story, with basement, wood frame building with gable roofs and a prow front elevation. The roof pitch flattens out at the back of the house to accommodate the 3rd floor loft area. Exterior building materials include tongue and groove cedar siding, stucco, wood decks and cedar shake shingles. A stone walkway is shown wrapping partially around the house. The applicant would like to delay the asphalt paving of the driveway for one year to allow for proper compaction. Color and material samples will be presented at the meeting. The Planning and Zoning Commission has reviewed this house conceptually at two previous meetings. On March 19, 1991, the Commission made the following comments: - The proposed metal roof is not acceptable. - The addition of dormers should be considered. - The north elevation of the building is too bland, consider adding windows. - Access to the front door is awkward, consider other alternatives. - Consider alternative driveway locations.

Lot 2 is .96 of an acre (41,818 square feet) in size and the combined building footprints of the two buildings is approximately 3,670 square feet for a building area ratio of 9%. The floor area of the building is approximately 7,320 square feet for a ratio of 17%. Nearly 1/3 of the lot area, or approximately 12,500 square feet is covered with impervious materials. The maximum building height is approximately 32 feet from finished grade to the highest ridgeline. A landscape plan indicating plant species has been provided. The plan, however, does not show the size of the plants, proposed irrigation, a distinction between native and formal landscaped areas or snow storage areas. The buildings are two story with a loft, wood frame buildings with gable roofs. Each unit includes a one car garage and a fireplace. Exterior building materials include cedar grain lap siding, stucco, redwood decks and woodroof shingles. Color and material samples will be presented at the meeting. The applicant would like to leave the driveway and parking areas gravel for a period of up to one year to alloij for compaction, then cover it with 4" of asphalt. At their meeting of September 18, 1990, the Planning and Zoning Commission tabled this item until such time that the applicant addressed their concerns. The following is a list of the comments made by the Planning and Zoning Commission at the September 18, meeting. - T-1-11 siding is not an acceptable siding material. - The duplexes should not be mirror images. - The height of the retaining walls is excessive, They should be terraced and landscaped. - Because of the considerable amount of area to be plowed on this lot, Appropriate snow storage areas must be shown. - The gravel driveways and parking areas are not acceptable, (too much gravel), paving is require' C: • STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMM[SSION Page 2 of 5 Lot 2, Block 5, Wild, idge Subdivision Al Connell Four Unit Residential Complex Final Design Review - The landscape plan should be drawn by a landscape architect and automatic irrigation should be provided where applicable. - The building trim accentuates the fact that the buildings are too tall. - A combination of at least two materials should be used on the buildings (stucco and wood, etc.). - The roofs shed snow to decks, garage, entries, etc. - Building overhangs and the width of the fascia should be increased. - Consider increasing the pitch of the roofs. - The buildings do not take very good advantage of solar energy. - The buildings are not related to the existing topography of the site very well. 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: The application does lack certain design review elements as further described below. 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 the building materials are suitable with Town guidelines. As mentioned previously, the landscape plan lacks sufficient detail to determine its conformance with this criterion. e STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Page 3 of 5 Lot 2, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision All Connell Four Unit Residential Complex Final Design Review 6.13 - The compatibility of the design to minimize site impacts to adjacent properties. COMMENT: The siting of the building is sympathetic to the adjacent residential property. The buildings are no longer mirror image duplexes and aplear to be sited in the most logical building area of the lot. 6.14 - The compatibility of proposed improvement with site topography. COMMENT: The property slopes toward the west/southwest at an average of 35%. There is a fairly level bench area on the property which would accomodate the proposed buildings. Approximately 1/2 of the basement level will be below finished grade. 6.15 - The visual appearance of any proposed improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring properties and public ways. COMMENT: Insufficient information has been provided to adequately determine visual impacts of the development for the following reasons. - The landscape plan does not provide the size or quantity of landscape materials. - The gradings and drainage plan is not accurately drawn. Cross sections through the lot, buildings and driveway should be provided. The grading plan does not appear to match the elevation drawings very well. - Insufficient retaining wall detail has been provided (12' high gabian rock wall). All walls over 4' high must be structurally designed. - No trash or snow storage areas are shown on the site plans. - No windows or landscape materials have been provided along the south sides of the buildings. 6.16 - The objective that no improvement be so similar STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Page 4 of 5 Lot 2, Block 5, Wildridge Subdivision Al Connell Four Unit Residential.

Lot 31 is .79 of an acre (34,412 square feet) and is located on Beartrap Road. The lot slopes toward the west at approximately 22%.

No detailed information has been provided regarding building materials, however, it appears that stucco, wood, and metal (deck railings and chimney cap) will be used. Building colors will be discussed at the meeting. No information has been provided regarding proposed treatment of exposed foundation walls. No walkways are shown on the site plan and no windows are proposed on the east elevation of the building. Although still at the conceptual stage the house appears to meet all applicable Town of Avon design criteria with the exception that driveway width (12') and grade (12%) does not comply with Town Standards.
