PZC Packet 072192STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 21, 1992 Holy Cross Electric Association Line Relocation Special Review Use Amendment Public Hearing INTRODUCTION In May of 1987 the Town Council approved a Special Review Use request from Holy Cross Electric. The request and approval allowed Holy Cross to upgrade the existing 69KV line to a 115KV transmission line. The existing 69KV line leaves the Metcalf Road Substation and traverses a ridge just north of I-70. At this point there are several highly visible towers. The line then runs east through the Town limits and beyond, eventually turning south and dropping into the Eagle -Vail Substation. The 1987 approval for upgrade to 115KV maintained the existing alignment. This upgrade was never executed. Since the 1987 approval, Holy Cross has downgraded the 69KV line to a 24.5KV line, which is a standard distribution line size. Holy Cross Electric is now planning on completing the 115 loop into Vail, but has requested a slightly different alignment. than the 1987 approval ;ndicated. The current request from Holy Cross is to run a 115KV line northeast out of the substation to the top of the ridge, then southeast to a point east of Buck Creek Road where the new alignment intersects the existing alignment. From the substation to this point the existing 24.5KV line will be removed from its present alignment, the towers will be taken down, and the line will be underhung on the new 115KV towers. At Buck Creek Road the 24.5KV will go underground to service the Wildwood/Mountainstar area, and will also go down Buck Creek Road, behind Pizza Hut and along Swift Gulch Road to provide service to Swift Gulch. At the edge of Swift Gulch the 24.5KV line will come aboveground and will continue on to the Eagle -Vail Substation. The new 115KV line follows the existing alignment across Buck Creek and then turns northeast on a new alignment and continues on to the Potato Patch Substation in the Town of Vail. At the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of June 16th, the Staff listed several concerns with this proposal and recommended tabling due to a lack of information. We have been working with Holy Cross Electric since that meeting to understand and resolve the issues raised by the Staff. STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 21, 1992 Page 2 of 4 Holy Cross Electric Association Line Relocation Special Review Use Amendment Public Hearing Holy Cross and the Town of Avon have initiated a process to study and discuss the relocation and consolidation of the existing 115KV lines in Wildridge and along Metcalf Road. This process will take some time and can be separated from the current Special Review Use request. The purpose of the 69Kv/24.5KV Town Staff and we feel the appropriate up to Buck Creek. line is now understood by the underhanging of this line is The Mountainstar representatives have had the opportunity to meet with Holy Cross and understand the impacts of the new line on their project, and have had some preliminary discussions with Holy Cross officials about possible participation in burial of a section of the line. These discussions are ongoing and it is possible that a portion of the new line will be placed underground, however, for the purpose of the current request, we will assume that all facilities are aboveground. Any change to that assumption will require an amendment to the Special Review Use. STAFF COMMENTS The following criteria as listed in Section 17.48.040 of the Avon Zoning Code, should be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission when reviewing a Special Review Use application. A. Whether the proposed use otherwise complies with all requirements imposed by the Zoning Code; COMMENT: There are no other conflicts with the Zoning Code related to this proposal. B. Whether the proposed use is in conformance with the Town Comprehensive Plan; COMMENT: The Croprehensive Plan places a great emphasis on the visual appearance of the Town, and particularly emphasizes the entrance to Wildridge. Holy Cross officials and the Town of Avon have agreed to study the relocation issue as a separate process. The visual impacts of this specific amendment request to the previous approval are posiL've. The new alignment out of the Metcalf Road STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 21, 1992 Page 3 of 4 Holy Cross Electric Association Line Relocation Special Review Use Amendment Public Hearing Substation is a better visual solution than the existing alignment. C. Whether the proposed use is compatible with adjacent uses. Such compatibility may be expressed in appearance, architectural scale and features, site design, and the control of any adverse impacts including noise, dust, odor, lighting, traffic, safety, etc. COMMENT: The Staff concern about an additional power line running through Avon is alleviated by the agreement between Holy Cross and the Town to take an indepth look at the relocation issue. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff Recommendation is for approval of the request for a Special Review Use to allow construction of a 115KV powerline, with a 24.5KV underbuild, along the new alignment as described.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION July 21, 1992 Lot 45, Block 3, Wildrige Subdivision Vedder Duplex Final Design Review INTRODUCTION Brian Vedder is requesting final design review approval of a proposed duplex on Lot 45, Block 3, Wildridge Subdivision. The Vedder duplex received conceptual de=ign review and denial of a 15' front yard setback variance request at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of June 16, 1992. On July 7, 1992, the applicant received final design review consideration (see attached staff report) and approval of a 15' fror,t yard setback variance request. Although the Planning and Zoning Commission felt that the applicant had adequately addressed their conceptual review comments, they did not feel that the applicant's drawings were detailed enough for final design approval. The Commission asked Mr. Vedder to come back at the next meeting with hardline elevation drawings at a larger scale. Also, Mr. Vedder was directed to add a more detailed, itemized landscape legend to his landscape plan. Finally, there was some concern and comment by the Commission regarding the proposed management of snow shedding at the entryways. In response to the direction given at the last meeting, Mr. Vedder has provided the following information: - Hardlined elevation drawings have been provided. The scale of the drawings has been increased from 1/8" to lj4„ = 1'. - The landscape plan has been amended to include a detailed legend, a reference to proposed method of irrigation and reference to proposed method of revegetation of disturbed areas. - The plans reflect that Mr. Vedder intends to manage snow :shedding with heated rain gutters and down spouts ,enclosed). STA=F RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the final design review application, based on the criteria and findings outlined in the July 7, 1992 Staff Report (attached) with the same cordition found therein.

The Vedder duplex received conceptual design review and denial of a 15' front yard setback variance request at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of June 16, 1992. the Planning and Zoning Commission offered the following conceptual design review cimments at the meeting: - The large sloped roof over the garage is not working, consider a flat roof if you want to use sod. A variance might be more acceptable if the garage roof had a different design. - The image of the house from the street could be improved. - Having the garage doors face the side lot lines is a good idea. - The cantilevered portion of the building on the south side is awkward. Consider removing it or placing lots or landscaping in front of it. - Consider a steeper roof pitch over the dwelling units. - Consider simplifying the roof structure. - Step the building down the hill to reduce the excessive building height. The Vedder duplex units will be accessed via aspnaI- driveways which approach the houses from the northwest and northeast at a grade of approximately 8-10%.

All driveway aro parking spaces will be tinished with asphalt. A 3' high treated timber retaining wall (8" x 8" timbers) will screen the trash storage area which will be utilized on trash pick up day only (each unit owner will store their trash can inside their unit). Material samples and proposed building colors will be presented at the meeting. STAFF COMMENTS As this is a conceptual review, no formal action will be taken at this time. However, Staff would like to point out the following. 1. The "limit of disturbed area" on the landscape plan does not match the grading plan. 2. Spot elevations should be added to each buildings highest ridgelines in order to more accurately assess maximum height above existing and finished grade.
