PZC Packet 091592STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION September 15, 1992 Lot 18, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Railton Duplex Final Design Review INTRODUCTION John Railton is requesting final design approval for a duplex to be built on Lot 18, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision. The Planning and Zoning Commission first saw a schematic concept of this building while reviewing and approving a front setback variance for this lot. The final design does follow the provisions of the setback variance. The A unit has 1658 square feet of habitable area and the B unit has 2900 square feet of habitable area. The roof is a metal panel, siding is 1" x 8" cedar with stucco and moss rock as accent elements. Windows will be metal clad with cedar trim. All colors will be submitted on a sample board at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. There is a complete landscape and irrigation plan. Unit B shows a deck encroaching into the Metcalf Ditch easement that runs across the rear of the property. The deck encroachment must be eliminated, or an encroachment easement must be granted prior to issuance of a building permit. 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.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION September 15, 1992 Lots 13/14, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Tony Seibert for SLB -200 Partners, L.P. PUD Amendment/Zone Change Public Hearing INTRODUCTION Tony Seibert, on behalf of SLB -200 Partners, L.P., is proposing to amend the Eaglebend PUD Development Plan for the purpose of changing the existing zoning and lot configuration of Lots 13 and 14, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision. The zoning plat for the Eaglebend PUD shows that the PUD is divided into six Subareas. Lots 13 and 14 are located in Subarea 5. The development standards for Subarea 5 are as follows: Maximum building height = 35' Maximum building area ratio = 50% Minimum open space = 25% Minimum setbacks = 25' - front 10' - rear 7.5' - side Allowed uses = A single family or a duplex building and accessory buildings and uses. Minimum lot size = Although not specifically listed on the zoning plat, it is important to note that none of the 19 lots in Area 5 are less than 16,000 sq. ft. in size. Mr. Seibert's requested PUD Amendment includes both a rezoning and the replatting of Lots 13 and 14. Each of the lots are currently 0.37 of an acre in size (16,008 sq. ft.). The requested action would create one large lot zoned for four units. The setbacks to the exterior property lines would remain the same, as would the rest o; the development standards, however, the removal of the interior lot line allows more flexibility in locating structures. The developer's intent is to develop four single family residences instead of two duplex structures, as detailed in the architectural drawings and site plan. STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZGNING COMMISSION September 15, 1992 Page 2 of 4 Lots 13/14, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Tony Seibert for SLB -200 Partners, L.P. PUD Amendment/Zone Change Public Hearing STAFF COMMENTS The following criteria as listed in Section 17.21.080 of the Avon Zoning Cede, shall be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission when reviewing a propo:ced PUD Amendment/Zone Change application. A. Is the proposed rezoning .justified by changed or changing conditions in the character of the area proposed to be rezoned? STAFF RESPONSE: On May 5, 1992, the Eaglebend Partnership received approval of a PUD Amendment for Tract B, Eaglebend Subdivision. The approved development plan allows up to 21 single family residences on the 3.19 acre tract. The average density of this section of land, located on the north side of Eaglebend Drive, is 6,600 sq. ft. each. The 19 lots on the south side of Eaglebend Drive (Filing 1) are all a minimum of 16,000 sq. ft. each. No changes in the character of the lots in Filing 1 have occurred since the Subdivision was originally annexed into the Town in 1987. B. Is the proposed rezoning consistent with the Town's Comprehensive Plan? STAFF RESPONSE: Goal #A3 and Objective AI(a) (Land Use) and Objective I1(b) (Image Design) in the Avon Comprehensive Plan seem particularly relevant to this application. They are as follows: GOAL #A3 - Upon full development of the community, all land uses should work together as a balanced system. OBJECTIVE #A1 - (a) Identify the appropriate scale of development for each area of Town. OBJECTIVE #I1 - (b) Strengthen the Town's design standards to ensure tha development will be appropriate in scale, intensity, and character. Emphasis shall be placed on architecture, landscaping, streetscape, and signage. Staff does not feel that the proposed development plan for Lots 13 and 14 serves to further any of the goals and objectives contained in the Avon Comprehensive Plan. s • • STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION September 15, 1992 Page 3 of 4 Lots 13/14, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision Toney Seibert for SLB -200 Partners, L.P. r PUD Amendment/Zone Change Public Hearing C. Is the proposed use compatible with surrounding ab uses? STAFF RESPONSE: Although single family homes are certainly a compatible use on this parcel of land, the proposed configuration of buildings on this plan is very tight. In the opinion of Staff, the four single family homes do not fit well on site in a manner compatible with the neighborhood. if single family homes are desired on these lots, it appears that only three will fit. D. Are adequate facilities available to serve deve'opment for the type and scope suggested by the proposed use: STAFF RESPONSE: Adequate facilities are available tD serve the proposed development. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends denial of the requested PUD Amendment/Zone Change request for Lots 13 and 14, Block 1, Filing 1, Eaglebend Subdivision. RECOMMENDED ACTION 1.
