PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
March 3, 1992
The regular meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission was held
on March 3, 1992, at 7:30 PM in the Upstairs Conference Room at
the Avon Fire Department, Avon, Colorado. the meeting was called
to order by Chairman John Perkins.
Members Present: John Perkins, Buz Reynolds,
Clayton McRory, Patti Dixon,
Sue Railton, Henry vest,
Staff Present: Jim Curnutte, Town Planner;
Rick Pylman, Director of
Community Development;
Charlette Pascuzzi, Recording
Secretary
Chairman Perkins stated that all members were present.
Lot 1 and part of Lot2y__Nott.ingham Station Subdivision, Diamond
Shamrock Cornerstore._Speqial Review_Use,_ Public, Hearing
Jim Curnutte stated that there is also a design review associateo
with this special review use, which will be discussed later.
Davaid Gallowy and David Moore are present representing Diamond
Shamrock. Currently as platted the lot line is about 30 feet
short of what is shown on the site plan shown at this time. in
conjunction with the special review use and design review, the
applicants have submitted a minor subdivision request to move the
lot line over. The lot is around 27,000 square feet as platted
and by moving the lot line it will be about 31.000 square feet.
The property is zoned Neighborhood Commercial and this application
is not a use by right in the Neighbcrhood Commercial district,
therefore the need for a special review use permit. The intention
of the Neignborhood Commercial District is to provide facilities
and services for the principle benefit of residents of the
community and also to highway -oriented convenience needs. The
reason for listing automobile service station as a special review
use is to allow the Commission and Town Council to assess the need
for imposing any additional development or performance standards.

The development consists of about a 1500 square foot convenience
store, the rendering provides the best view, There are four
dispenser islands, and a canopy over all of it. The canopy is
about 49' x 103'. There are some site lights on the property,
adequate turn lanes, and a handicap parking space has been located
on the south side of the building. There are four underground
petroleum storage tanks. Three of them are 12,000 gallons and one
is 8,000 gallons covered with 8" reinforced concrete slab. The
rest of the property will be surfaced with 5" reinforced concrete
slab. There is a turnaround area projecting on to Lot 2 which is
to be a turnaround for the trucks it there are too many cars that
they couldn't maneuver properly.
The signage consists of a freestan:ing monument sign, 12'10" high.
Other site improvements are phone pedestals, and air stations.
Back to the signs, there is a Diamond Shamrock sign on the north
and south facing sides of the canopy and a Corner Store sign on
the south side of the building. The signage being proposed is in
conformance with the sign code. The allowance is 84' and that is
what the applicants have proposed. The applicants are installing
a retaining wall on the back side of the property and are
proposing to match the Town's retaining wall and will also copy
the fence. Curnutte then described the materials to be used and
the colors. He provided photos of similar buildings showing both
day and night. He stated that one difference from the photos is
that the lighting will be recessed rather than dropper as shown in
the photos. The site lighting will also be recessed. Curnutte
discussed the spanners which are supposed to be internally lit.
Curnutte then reviewed the criteria for reviewing a special
review use:
A. Whether the proposed use complies with all the
requirements imposed by the Zoning Code: Staff feels that the
proposal is in compliance with portions of the zoning code,
dealing with building heights, setbacks, sign code allowances,
turning radius, site coverage, minimum landscaped area, etc.
B. Whether the proposed use is in conformance with the
Town's Comprehensive Plan: Staff feels that the proposal is in
conformance with the Town's Comprehensive Plan. This piece of
property falls into Subarea 4, which is "Town Gateway . It is
critical that properties within this Subarea are developed in a
manner which creates an attractive appearance. Curnutte then
reviewed some goals and objectives excerpted from the
Comprehensive Plan which seem applicable to this project, as
follows: The Town would like to enhance their role as a

principal, year-round residential and commercial center in the
valley. The Comprehensive Plan suggests that the Town provide
for increased opportunities for development of service-oriented
commercial and light industrial uses, as long as there are proper
controls. Protect and enhance the water quality of th Eagle River
and Nottingham Lake.
C. Whether the proposed use is compatible with adjacent
uses. Compatibility may be expressed in architecture, site
design, dust, light, impacts on traffic and safety. Curnutte
stated that the applicant has meet with staff over the last
several months and Staff feels that the application is now
complete. Staff's biggest concerns were the level of lighting and
the protection of the Eagle River. Curnutte stated that the
applicant has provided a lighting plan showing the footcandle
footprint that shows a contour lighting plan. In order to reduce
possible contamination to ground water and/or the Eagle River,
the applicants are proposing state-of-the-art secondary
containment fuel product equipment (double walled tanks and piping
systems) and all surface runoff will be treated, first entering a
750 gallon sand and grease trap and then move on to a 10,000
gallon oil and water separator treatment facility.
Staff feels that an automobile service station is an appropriate
use for this property. Staff feels that the applicant has
addressed the environmental concerns. They have demonstrated that
the proposed use can be designed and controlled to miticste the
potential for contamination of the Eagle River in the event of a
minor or major spill incident.
Curnutte stated that the monument sign being proposed is an
internally -lit white plexiglass sign. Staff has suggested to the
applicant that they use indirect lighting. The internal's
illuminated spanners are also of some concern of the Staff.
David Galloway, represen�,ing Diamond Shamrock, introduced David
Moore and John Scales of Galloway, Romero and Associates and Dan
Landers of Diamond Shamrock. Mr. Galloway provided a Fuel System
report comparing Government Requirements and Diamond Shamrock's
proposed system. He then reviewed this report (See attached
Exhibit "A").
Buz Reynolds voiced concern about the monitoring of the 10,000
gallon storage tank to insure that what comes out into the
catchbasin is clean. Mr. Galloway stated that it is the same tank
as the fuel tanks, except it is a single wall. It is a no moving
part treatment device, with racks and baffles, etc., and provides
0

effluent of fifteen parts per million. They did a drainage report
for flows expected and designed this facility to take roughly the
10 year storm.
Reynolds stated that part of his question was answered, but what
will be, done for maintenance on this system. Mr. Galloway stated
that there are no moving parts. The oil storage capacity for
this to still function is approximately 80% of the nominal
capacity, which would be 8,000 gallons in the 10,000 gallon tank.
He went on to describe the oil/water separator functions.
Also the 8,000 figure is roughly equivalent to an entire tanker
truck that might rupture on site. The maximum any tanker truck
can haul is 8500 gallons, but they have five compartments in them
and the maximum size of each compartments is 2500 gallons. Mr.
Galloway's response to Mr. Reynolds was that they have ,.he ability
to store 8,000 gallons, there is an electronic sensor in the tank
and when it gets so full, a light comes on and then a licensed
disposal company will haul it off. Mr Reynolds stated that he
was worried that the tank would be at 80% capacity and then there
is one of those spring storms. Mr. Reynolds stated that he is
still not feeling comfortable with this one containment. Also,
what happens in the double walled tanks, if the second tank is
filled up. Mr. Galloway said he is sure that there is a way to
pump it out, but he is not sure how it is done. He stated that
what they were trying to achieve is to meet all the concerns of
the public. The monitor can be set on the storage tank to pump
out at any amount wanted. It doesn't have to be set at 8.000
gallons.
Henry Vest asked if Diamond Shamrock puts this equipment in all
their stations. Mr. Gallo -way stated that he has never gone to
this extent on any station he has ever put in. Vest then asked
why Diamond Shamrock would go to such expense for this particular
property. Mr. Galloway stated that he feels that Diamond Shamrock
is very excited about becoming part of this community. They think
it will be a good location, and also they have tried to put
together a project that the people of this community can support
and be comfortable with.
Discussion followed on the monitoring of the tanks. Mr. Galloway
stated that the biggest problem with leaks are with line leaks.
He went into considerable detail ragarding the construction or
tanks and why line leaks are more apt to happen than tank leaks.
He stated that until December 1988 there were no rules on the
books for the monitoring, etc of tanks.

Next, Mr. Galloway reviewed in detail tanker truck requirements
and regulations for loading and delivering fuel. He reviewed the
methods of a handling spill when delivering fuel into the tanks.
He stated that there are many safety factors in the whole delivery
system.
Next to be discussed was the lighting. He stated that the
lighting will not be similar to the Conoco in Edwards. He stated
that the site lights will be recessed lighting. They will be 16'
high, about half of what the ones at Conoco are. The canopy
lights will be 400 watt metal halide recessed lights. He stated
that Coastal mart has one canopy light per about 106 sq. ft. of
area, Conoco has one light for about each 140 so. ft. and Diamond
Shamrock is prcposirg one light per 291 sq. ft. of canopy area.
The building lights are also recessed.
Mr. Galloway then provided a -ebuttal to the letter received from
Mr. and Mrs. Weiss, stating, regarding federal regulations, that
Diamond Shamrock has doubled what the federal regulations require.
Regarding the question of the Town of Avon's commitment to paying
for any cleanup, Mr Galloway stated that the company will have to
have enough insurance or cash in a separate account to pay for
claims. The amount required depends on how many tanks the company
has, therefore the Town of Avon would not be on the hook for any
spills that might occur. Regarding the Weiss's concerns about
pollution from leaks, Mr. Gallowy stated that the tanks are testea
when they put them on the truck and again when they are placed in
the ground, then the piping is installed and also air pressure
tested. Then after all the concrete is put in it all is tested
again. The tanks and line tests are also inspected by the fire
department. Regarding the freeze or thaw matter. The tanks are
deep enough that this would not be a problem. Mr. Galloway stated
that, with the proposed double wall system and the monitoring
systems, leaking connections will be less of a proolem. He
reviewed some of the aspects of the monitoring system. In
response to the Weiss's statement about the rupture of a tank
within six months in Springfield, Mass., Mr. Galloway stated that
he called the fire marshall in Springfield, Mass. regarding this
matter. In January, 1987, a tank was installed and in March of
1987 it had to be taken out. Their records indicate that it was
an 8,000 gallon tank. The key date to remember is December 1988.
This is the first date that laws were on the books for these
things. Also there is no record of the tank in Springfield of the
tank being double walled. Regarding the matter of surface spills,
Mr. Galloway stated that has already been covered in the
discussion on the storage tanks. Mr. Galloway stated that a study
was done to locate the water table and they did not encounter

water to the depth of the test pit. Diamond Shamrock intends to
meet all EPA regulations concerning de -watering. Mr. Galloway
stated that they are providing a state-of-the-art system that they
Nope will become the standard for the Vail Valley.
Mr. Galloway then read into the record a rebuttal letter to the
Vail Associates/Beaver Creek Resort letters. First, Diamond
Shamrock feels that this is an appropriate location for this type
business, as the success of this type business depends on
accessibility. However, they feel they feel that they have used
site design techniques to minimize the impact by: increased
setback, (75 ft. instead of 25 ft.), Continuation of design
techniques (use of colors, styles and materials used for the
bridge/underpass and retaining walls along Avon Road and other
buildings in Avon), Heighten sensitivity to other impacts (the
lighting and environmental controls for this project will set new
standards for this use and any other traffic intensive type of
uses in the area.) Mr. Galloway responded to Vail Associates
concerns about fuel storage tanks being located close to the Eagle
River, stating that Vail Associates, as the owner and/or operator
of some 40 fuel tanks in the area along the Eagle River watershed,
having the ability of storing approximately 150,000 gallons of
fuel with an average tank age of over 11 years, is very aware of
the risks associated with underground storage tanks. He stated
that the proposed Diamond Shamrock project incorporates state of
the art techniques to minimize the risks by: I. Providing
complete secondary containment; 2. Providing continuious
monitoring of all fuel related equipment which will immediately
detect leaks. 3. Providing full collection and treatment, along
with storage capability, for the entire range of fuel spills which
may be encounterd from the slightest fuel overspill by the
customers to an unexpected catastrophic spill of a tanker truck.
4. Providing daily inventory reconciliation at 5 different
corporate levels. 6. Providing for monthly independent corporate
inspection of all equipment and irr.^ntory records. Mr. Gallowy
stated that Diamond Shamrock has met the requirements for signage.
He then reviewed the lighting, and the canopy colors as mentioned
in the Vail Associates letters.
Chairman Perkins then opened the public hearing for public input.
Mauri Nottingham stated that he owns the property immediately east
of the proposed site. He stated that he is not a proponent of gas
stations. He stated that this was a better proposal than the one
presented a few years ago, however, it still isn't good enough to
satisfy him. He is concerned about the thirty year life of the
tanks, what happens after 30 years? Also, monitors do fail,

sometimes they are not even turned on. He is concerned abolat the
water coming out of the storage tank and going into the Eagle
River, how often is that monitored '.o make sure it is not
contaminated. He stated that he is concerned with the traffic
problems that it will cause. He feels that this is the wrong
location for a gas service station. He questioned the compliance
with the master plan.
Rick Rosen, representing the Beaver Creek Property Owners
Association, stated that this a wrong site for a gas station. He
was in some discussions with the Town regarding the Sunroad
property and they clearly did not want a station along Avon Road.
This is the same situation. A gas station on Hurd Lane and Avon
i. no more than visible pollution. Being so near the Eagle River
is clearly a problem. He stated that his law firm handles spill
claims for two oil and gas retail companies and spills happen more
frequently than reported by Mr. Galloway. The committee needs to
look closely at the potential damage that this could do to this
valley in the event that there is a spill. Considerable damage
could be caused to Vail Associates recreational activities and
Vail Associates is a much larger tax base than the Diamond
Shamrock is going to provide this community. Also in the summer
tho Eagle River is the water for the golf courses, the fishing,
the boating etc., and drinking and agriculture water down valley.
Mr. Rosen stated that the tank design is only as good as the
installation and the maintenance. To have something that close to
the river without guarantees that they will be installed properly
and maintained properly is a risk. He was also concerned with the
proximity of the train tracks. It cou-d be a major disaster for
the community if there was a train accident that near to a gas
station. Also the Town just approved on first reading a 2.1
millon dollar landscape plan for Avon Road and this doesn't fit in
that plan. He resents paying for landscaping on one side and
visually polluting it on the other side. The Beaver Creek
Homeowners do not want to see this project for the entrance to
their community. He encourges the Commission to turn down this
project on this site. He feels there are better sites in town for
this type of business.
Erb McIlveen, Director of the Beaver Creek Resort Company, is
concerned with location and the proximity to the entrance of
Beaver Creek. He is concerned with the planning for that
particular area. He doesn't feel that there is any. He feels
that this type facility should be closer to I-70. The planning
and thought process should be geared to how the Town will deal
with the corridor from I-70 to Beaver Creek entrance. The Town
should look to the future.

Jerry Arnold, representing Vail Associates, and as a member of the
cc^munity, stated that despite the precautions, the basic risk is
still there. The equipment sounds good, but the requirements for
such equipment has not been with us very long, therefore we do not
know what the long term effects will be. Vail Associates still
has concerns with possible spills. The equipment is only as good
as the management and installation, and the monitoring of the
equipment. Is there any guarantee that there will always be a
trained employee to monitor and handle any spill? Vail
Association is opposed to the location, not the service.
Jack Hunn, an employee of Vail Associates, who has been heavily
involved with the development of Beaver Creek, stated that as a
former member of this Commission who adopted the comprehensive
plan that the Town is using to consider such projects, he has a
few comments. He thinks the introduction of another gas station
in the Town is a great idea, but this is the wrong location. He
feels that this project at this location will detract from the
image. He feels: that this project is contrary to the goals set
out in the Comprehensive Plan. The site is identified as a "Town
Gateway". It is a first impression site. This use is not
identified as a use by right. He also feels that there is a
traffic challenge with this project on this site. He sees major
problems for people trying to turn left to utilize this facility
that would block one of the lanes of traffic flowing to Beaver
Creek. There is a real challenge in making a left turn of) of
Hurd Lane to go south. If this project is to be considered
further, it should be conditional on a traffic study. He does not
think that this project is the type of development that the
authors of this type of plan visualized for this portion of the
Town. Two of the most important assets of the Town are the Eagle
River and this major traffic corridor and this project threatens
to violate and compromise the goals of both of those assets. He
reminded the Commission of the problems experienced by the
developer of the Gateway Plaza in Vail. He encouraged the
Commission to use the Comprehensive Plan as a tool to say no to
this project.
With no other public comments forthcoming, Chairman Perkins closed
the public hearing and called for Commission comments.
Patti Dixon stated that she thinks that the general location is
what matters most. She did not feel that it was a good site.
Some things that might ':)e done to improve the proJect would be
lowering the site, but then there might be a problem with the
water table. Also considerable landscaping to mitigate the
concrete mass would probably help. She also has a problem with
a

the traffic. Even now there is a problem.
Sue Railton stated that she appreciated the applicant's e•,'forts in
working with the staff on the design of this project, however, she
feels that this is an inappropriate site for this type of project.
She does not want to see a gas station at the ga6eway to Avon.
She also has concerns about the traffic conjestion.
Clayton McRory stated that he would support this project if the
applicant could move the Eagle River. This is his greatest
concern. For this reason he cannot support this protect.
Buz Reynolds also has a problem with the site being r:ext to the
Eagle River and he feels it just doesn't work at this site because
of the traffic problems it would cause.
Henry Vest stated that he thinks another gas station is needed,
but this site is not appropriate.
John Perkins stated that he takes exception to the staff comment
in criteria B. He feel that this development does not ersure a
high quality visual image of the Town. He does not feel that this
development will minimize the degradation of the environment,
particularly in sensitive natural areas or protect and enhance the
water quality of the Eagle River and Nottingham Lake.
Also in item C of the criteria, the compatibility of an urban gas
station at the entry to Beaver Creek is dubious. The Town is,
step by step, spending a lot of money to improve the image of the
Town and he feels that they have to continue in that direction and
he feels that this project on that site would be a step in the
wrong direction.
Dave Galloway stated that they have no idea where another piece of
property would be in Avon that would be considered appropriate.
Diamond Shamrock has worked for a year and a half trying to find a
location. A site has to meet criteria so that they can recoup the
investment to put in the double wall tanks, etc. He stated that
the Town needs to set down criteria for developers of this type
project. He stated that he has never, in all the similar
projects he has worked on, had to go to the ends that they have
here. He stated that the first that he has heard about traffic
is tonight. If a traffic analysis is needad they will continue
the project and get a TIA done and come back for approval.
Diamond Shamrock feels that this is indeed the only location in
Avon that will support the kind of investment to do this. With
this site there is very good traffic and very little competition.

Chairman Perkins reviewed the concerns voiced by the Commission.
Clayton McRory moved to deny approval for the Special Review Use
for Lot 1 and part of Lot 2, Nottingham Station Subdivision,
Diamond Shamrock, for the reasons listed in criteria B, that it
does not ensure a high quality visual image of the Town is
established through both public and private sector activities;
and that it does not minimize degradation of the environment,

Lot 44, Block 3. Wildridae Reynolds Residence, Material Change
Request
Buz Reynolds stepped down as a voting member of the Commission due
to a conflict of interest.
Jim Curnutte stated that the Reynolds received design review
approval for their residence on February 4, 1992. At that time
there was a moritorium on a the consideration of asphalt shingles.
The applicant proposed #2 medium cedar shake shingles and informed
the Commission that he would be back with a rooting material
change when the moritorium ended. He is proposing the Timberline
Ultra 400 lb per square product. Curnutte reviewed the
background for approvals of asphalt roofs: On October 1st the
Commission set guidelines for approvals of asphalt roofs.
Livergood's and Wahl's asphalt roofs were approved, Kelly's was
denied because of his home being a log home and this denial was
o��erturned by the Council. On November 26, the Town Council
approved resolution number 91-31, calling a moratorium on
approval of any asphalt shingles until March 1st. The idea was to
allow the Wildridge citizens time to reconsider their design
guidelines and determine whether or not they felt that asphalt
shingles were acceptable. The moritorium expired on March 1st,
therefore, Mr. Reynolds has the right to request the material
change to asphalt shingles.

Buz Reynolds described the product to be used as a 420 lb per
square and has a class A fire rating. The color is a weather wood
color. He provided a sample of the product. He stated that this
is the heaviest product ever presented.
Jack Hunn asked to comment. He stated that he owns several
properties in Wildridge and is the chairman of the Wildridge
committee and is trying to survey the residents as to what they
would like to see up there. He stated that he would like to first
remind Buz that he purchased his property while they are subject
to the covenants. The covenants do not allow this product,
therefore his proposal threatens to violate the covenants. He
stated that the Committee is in the process of surveying the
property owners and that survey will be mailed this Friday. They
hope to have the survey back by April 3rd. If the majority of
the property owners want to allow this product, it is likely that
the covenants will be amended. He stated that until the rules are
changed, they are the rules. He realizes that the Town has no
obligation to enforce the private covenants, however, he does not
feel it is appropriate for the Town to encourage applicants to
violate the covenants. He asked that the Commission deny this
application.
Buz Reynolds stated that there have been a few meetings between
the concerned citizens and other concerned citizens in Wildridge.
He has heard both sides and has seen the questionnaire. The
covenants are there, but there has been so many violations. There
is not one residence that has not violated the covenants. He is
coming to the Commission with a product that has already been
approved in the Wildridge area. He realizes that he will have to
go and meet with the concerned citizen group. With all the
applicants that have been before the Commission lately, there
hasn't been any requests for shake shingle roofs. That should
tell the Commission what people really want.
Henry Vest stated that the covenants committee had sufficient time
to put together the survey prior to the end of the moratorium.
Sue Railton moved to grant approval for the material change
request for Lot 44, Block 3, Wildridge, to the Timberline Ultra

Buz Reynolds resumed his seat as a voting member of the
Commission.
Chaiman Perkins stepped down as a voting member due to a conflict
of interest. Clayton McRory resumed the position of acting
Chairman.
John Perkins stated that largest aspect of this proposal is to
re -side the building in steel siding. Accompanying that proposal
they propose to re -design the entryways and the porte cocheres.
Also they would chose to consider re -roofing the pitched roofs
with a metal roof, re -doing the commercial entry walls which are
just around the protruding lobby and the front walls and enclosing
the wood columns that hold the awning over those areas with
something other than just exposed cedar posts. He stated that
Steve Johnson, from Alside Inc., is present to present a sample of
the steel siding. Perkins then turned the meeting over to Mr.
Johnson. Mr. Johnson provided samples of the steel sidings that
they offer. The type that Christie is considering is a 10" panel
with a 5" reveal. The nails are all hidden. The color Christie is
considering is the Mist Grey, a light tone grey. He described how
the trim work was done. Buz Reynolds asked about fire rating.
Mr. Johnson stated that the building had to be fire rated prior to
installation of the siding. Also, they are planning on taking
the old siding off because it is in such bad condition.
Discussion followed on the accent colors. Discussion followed on
how the product is installed.
Clayton McRory stated that he would like to see this product
combined with some other type product, i.e. stucco, just so it is
not one hundred percent steel siding. John Perkins stated that
he doesn't think that this building lends itself to that kind of
material change. Perkins stated that the accent trim would be on
the railings and the stucco surfaces that are there and he hopes
to increase either to stucco or stone the wails around the
commercial space. Discussion followed on the areas to be trimmed.
Discussion followed on the porte cochere changes. Some of the
work will be phased. Perkins stated that the railings will
oefinately stay a darker color and the areas that are stucco. He
suggested a darker green for the stucco and the proposed metal
roofs. A stone veneer and stucco above will be used on the
commercial frontage: Perkins stated that he will provide a color
rendering at final design review.
Perkins stated that he gathers, from the discussions, that the
Commission is basically in agreement with the material as long as
it is intergrated with other materials and accent colors that

will make a cohesive presentation.
As this was a conceptual design review, no formal action was taken
at this time.

Other Business
Rick Pylman stated that on April 3rd of 1990 Robert and Ruth
Gosiewski received approval for a very nice single family log home
in Wildridge. That design review approval is good for two years
and will expire on April 3, 1992. There is a provision in the
design guidelines allowing the Commission to grant a one year
extension and the Gosiewskis are asking for a one year extension,
as they are planning on building this summer.
Buz Reynolds moved to grant the extention. Clayton seconded and
the motion carried unanimously.
Clayton McRory asked if there had been applications for the vacant
Position caused by the appointment of Derek Pysher to the Town
