Mr. Reynolds arrived at 7:40 PM. eek, Eagle River ces_,Tony, _Sebert,. Final Design Review Jim Curnutte stated that the applicant is proposing a 21 unit residential complex that could be condominiums, however he may retain some of them for rental purposes. The lot is about one acre in size. The lot is zoned Residential High Density. The development consists of three six-plexes and one tri-plex. All of the buildings are about 42' in height and three stories in size. The units in the three six-plexes are about 800 square feet in size. Each of the six-plexes has two units on each level. The three in the tri-plex building could be upwards of 2000 square feet. All units will have gas fireplaces. There are 32 parking spaces provided along with 26 covered parking spaces. At two per unit plus six, the minimum number of guest spaces, the applicant is exceeding the minimum number of parking spaces required by ten. Curnutte stated that exterior building materials include 8' cedar lap siding, stucco chimneys and stair towers, aluminum clad windows, metal doors and composition shingles. The applicant has some samples of what the composition shingles will look like. The site plan shows that the access aisles and parking spaces will be paved, but does not specify 6 40 C PLA, VG AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES DecP jar 17, 1991 Page 5 of 10 Lot 8 Block 3.

He stated that it has always been their intent to sell off fifty to sixty percent as condominiums and retain the balance as rental units. He stated that they have not addressed what the tri-Mex will look like. Obviously they will want to keep it looking similar to the others, by keeping the roof line, siting, painting etc. the same. They will bring the modifications back to the Commission. He stated that they will remove the two spaces out of the 10' front setback, however, due to the problem of plowing snow and as a potential rental project, they will need all the spaces they can get and they feel that they need to keep the three spaces in the landscape island. Curnutte staled that one of the garages shown on the plans is actually the trash enclosure. Seibert stated that the garages are important as a sound barrier and one additional item he would like to have approved, which is not on the plan, is the addition of a cedar fence along the railroad track at either end of the garage, maybe as high as 12' as you get to the west end. This is in order to create a continuing sound baffle along the entire northern p-operty line. He described the slope of the site at these locations as the reasoning for the fence. Regarding the vacating of the utility easements, Mr. Seibert stated that he has re:eived several quit claim deeds from some of the utility companies and so has Inter-Mountain Engineering, and tha'i is the method by which they are vacating tKat particular utility easement. He stated that the archictect is showiig one garage light every sixty feet, but they will probably triple that, in addition to the lighting along the walkways. Relative to the question as to how often the garage detail repeats itself, it is every six garage doors. Since three more garages have been added, this will probably be changed so that it will repeat every four doors. He stated that they will try sod in place of the gravel between the buildings. He stated that he would like to get PLAN4ING AND December 17, Page 6 of 10 ZONING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES 1991 Lot 8, Block 3. Benchmark at beayer__Creekt_ Eagle__River Condominiums.

It is a 14" channel lap masonite siding. He then provided the colors as a light blue/grey for the main body, the trim being a dark blue grey and the roof would be a 20 year class A fiber -glass composition shingle in a dark grey. Discussion followed on the type of roofing material. It was decided that Staff could approve the proposed material to be used. Discussion followed on the raquest for the fence. The Commission felt 12 feet would be too much. They suggested maybe some mounding and then installing the fence. Considerable discussion followed on this matter. It was suggested that some landscaping also be added to the fence. Mr. Seibert asked for approval of a minimum of six feet and if needed come back with any deviation. Seibert stated that the parking area would be asphalt. Discussion followed on the landscaping and using more for shielding the straight on shots of the garages. Also discussed was the matter of leaving the chimney chases. Discussion followed on the placements of the decks into the setback. Seibert stated that the footprint will be c:•anged to remove the decks out of the setback. It was s.aggested that some of the trim be another color, and teal was suggested. Also suggested was to deviate shades of color for the garages doors. Mr. Seibert stated he world not object to that. Discussion followed on the matter of snow loading in the front of the garages and how to alleviate the problem. Discussion followed on the parking situation. It was the general consensus of the Commission that the three parking be left as is. Also discussed was the matter of sod in the proposed gravel areas. It was decided that if the sod does not work in those areas, then gravel would be alright. After considerably more discussion, Patti Dixon moved to grant final design approval to Lot 8, Block 3, Benchmark at Beaver Creek, with the following conditions: 1.

Lot 65/66 Block 2. Benchmark at Beaver Creek_, The Annex Shopping Center,_ ign Program__Amendment�_. Desig_n__Revie_w Jim Curnutte stated that the new owner of the space previously occupied by Powder Hound Sports requested a permit for a temporary banner for his new business. However, the sign code only allows a temporary banner to be 35 square feet in size, and can only be left up for a week, for any one event during a thirty day period. This would not help this particular applicant since he needs an identification sign for his business until his permanent sign is made. In order to accomplish this, Pat Barron of the Otis Company, the owner of the Annex, is requesting an amendment to the sign program for the Annex to allow for temporary identification signs on their building for new businesses. The applicant is requesting that temporary banners be allowed for a period of up to thirty days, while the permanent sign is being fabricated. The temporary signs will not exceed 20 square feet for each 20 lineal feet of store frontage and they will be required to have blue lettering on a white background. Curnutte stated that the Commission needs to consider the materials to be used and the location the sign will be placed. Curnutte reviewed the criteria for approving an approval of a sign program. Staff recomndation is for approval of the proposed sign program amendment with the following conditions: 1. It should be made clear that the temporary banners are for the purpose of identifying the new business only and are not for sales. The banners should include the name of the business only and no other messages. 2. The banners should be limited to one per business, eycept for corner businesses which can have more than one on each PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES December 17, 1991 Page 9 of 10 Lot 65/66, Block 2, _Benchmark__at Beaver__C_reek,.__The Annex enter Shopping CSign Program Amendment_ Desig_n_ Review_, contl side of the building 3.
