Re: PUBLIC HEARING
Ordinance No. 10 -04, Series of 2010 Amending the Brookside PUD
To Permit Short Term Rental Units On Lots 2 And 3.
Summary:
The Brookside HOA submitted an application to amend the Brookside Planned Unit
Development ( "PUD ") to permit "Short Term Rentals" as a use by right on Lots 2 and 3 of the
development. Following a public hearing on February 16, 2010, the Planning and Zoning
Commission made a unanimous recommendation for approval of this application at their
March 3, 2010 meeting.
• The Council approved this Ordinance on First Reading at the March 9, 2010 regular
meeting. Please refer to the attached Planning and Zoning Commission packet information
related to this application for details of the property and proposal.
Background:
The Town Council adopted a Short Term Rental Overlay Zone District last year to permit
such uses for hotel rooms condominium units or other accommodation units in specific areas
of town that were adjacent to the town core and residential in nature. PUD zoned properties
were not included in the overlay district and instead must apply for PUD amendment to
include short term rentals as a permitted use in the development.
This application is in conformance with the review criteria for PUD amendments and the
intent of the Short Term Rental Overlay District by concentrating accommodation units in
residential areas of the town core.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Council approve Ordinance No. 10 -04, Series of 2010, citing the
findings contained herein which support amending the Brookside PUD to add "Short Term
Rentals" as a use by right.
Proposed Motion:
"I move to Approve the second reading of Ordinance No. 10 -04, Series of 2010, Amending
the Brookside PUD to permit short term rental units on Lots 2 and 3."

Property Description
The Brookside PUD was approved in 1996 as a mixed -use project on approximately 4.7
acres. The development is comprised of three buildings on three separate lots along
with common open space and amenities including an outdoor swimming pool and hot
tub (the Property). The Property is accessed from one shared driveway on Hwy 6 west
of W. Beaver Creek Blvd. The Property is developed in a linear fashion along Hwy 6.
Lot 1 is located on the east side of the Property and includes a 29,500 sf office building
with 63 surface and 37 stuructured parking spaces. Lot 2 in the middle of the property is •
• developed with a 40 unit residential condominium known as Brookside Lodge. This building
includes an underground parking garage with 48 spaces and 56 surface parking spaces. Lot 3
is situated on the west side of the Property, and was developed with a 14 unit
townhouse building. Each townhome includes a 1 car garage, and shares some of the
surface parking spaces for overflow /guest parking with Lot 2 adjacent to Highway 6 and
24. A site plan of the Property is attached as Exhibit B.
The Property is bordered on the north and west by the ECO river recreation path and
the Eagle River. The Sunridge Phase II residential condominiums border the eastern
property line and Highway 6 borders the entire southern property line. Across Highway
6 and 24 is the Bear parking lot for Beaver Creek Resort
Policy Analysis
The intent of the Short Term Rental Overlay (STRO) District regulations is to permit
"Short Term Rental uses for hotel room, condominium unit, or other accommodation in
areas of the town core that are residential in nature."
Permitting short term rentals at Brookside is consistent with the intent of the STRO
regulations. Brookside PUD is a mixed -use development which includes a residential
component and amenities; and the Property is located in close proximity to town center
amenities and both local and regional transportation services.
Planning Analysis
is The applicant is requesting that short term rentals be permitted as a use in the two
residential buildings located on the Property. The Brookside PUD contemplated such a
use, as evidenced by the fact that the permitted uses include a rental office in the
Brookside Lodge building. The HOA covenants permit short term rentals and many of
the home owners have regularly rented their units out for short term accommodations
since the project was constructed.
Parking on the site can accommodate short-term rentals in Buildings 2 and 3. Parking
for the residential portions of the project is provided at a rate of 2 spaces per unit.
Short-term rentals are typically parked at a rate of between 1.2 to 1.5 spaces per
accommodation unit.
The location of the Property and close proximity to Town Center, Beaver Creek Resort
and Hwy 6 make it suitable for tourist and guest accommodations.
All vehicles entering the property share an entrance off Highway 6 & 24, and once on
the site, vehicles either bear right towards the commercial building and underground
parking, or left towards the residential portions of the property. The regional ECO bus
stop is located approximately one quarter mile from the entrance to the site.
The circulation system for both vehicles and pedestrians is well developed and
functional on site with direct pedestrian connections provided to the river path. The
Transportation Plan envisions sidewalks or separate paved trails along Highway 6 & 24
in the future. A direct pedestrian connection adjacent to Highway 6 to the intersection
with West Beaver Creek Boulevard will help connect pedestrians and guests to the
3
project. In the meantime, there is sufficient access to the bus stops by walking the ECO •
recreation path towards West Beaver Creek Boulevard.
Engineering Analysis
The application does not require any modifications to the Property that would require
engineering design.
Design Review
The application does not require any modifications to the Property or the buildings that
would require design review.
Findings
The proposed PUD Amendment to allow Short Term Rentals at the Brookside Lodge
and Townhomes is consistent with the review criteria set forth in Section 17.20.110 of
the Zoning Code as follows:
1. Conformance with the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan's Goals and
Objectives.
The PUD amendment would allow short term rentals on the property, which is
consistent with Avon's desire to encourage tourism and visitors.
2. Conformity and compliance with the overall design theme of the town, the
sub -area design recommendations and design guidelines of the Town.
There are no proposed changes to the exterior design of the project that will be •
required to accommodate short-term rental units on the property
3. Design compatibility with the immediate environment, neighborhood, and
adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building
height, buffer zones, character, and orientation.
The architectural design of the project would remain as it is today. No aspects
related to the design compatibility with the immediate environment would be affected
with the addition of short term rentals to the list of allowed uses.
4. Uses, activity, and density provide a compatible, efficient, and workable
relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
Surrounding residential and commercial uses are compatible with short-term rentals
accommodating guests and visitors. The property is directly across Hwy 6 from the
Beaver Creek Resort parking lots and shuttle to the resort. Regional and local bus
stops near the property also make this Property well- suited for accommodating
guests and visitors.
5. Identirication and mitigation or avoidance of natural and/or geologic hazards
that affect the property upon which the PUD is proposed.
The Brookside PUD is not located near any natural or geologic hazards.
6. Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to
produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural
features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.
•
4
• The Property is located along the south side of the Eagle River. The building and
site design of the Property are responsive to the sensitive and natural features of the
river environment.
7. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing
on and off site traffic circulation that is compatible with the Town
Transportation Plan.
The circulation system is design for both vehicles and pedestrians. A future
sidewalk or separated path along Highway 6 and 24 is envisioned in the
Transportation Plan.
8. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and function.
The Brookside PUD is well- connected with the river environment bordering the north
side of the property.
9. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional, and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the PUD. The phasing
plan shall clearly demonstrate that each phase can be workable, functional
and efficient without relying upon completion of future project phases.
No phasing plan is required for this proposal.
10.Adequacy of public services such as sewer, water, schools, transportation
systems, roads, parks, and police and fire protection.
• The location of the ECO recreation path and nearby connecting local and regional
bus transportation is a benefit to short term rental guests. The ECO path connects
to the Town Center with only one road crossing. No additional burden will be
experienced for public services such as sewer, water, and schools. There are no
additional anticipated impacts generated by this land -use on the property then the
current land -use mix.
11. That the existing streets and roads are suitable and adequate to carry
anticipated traffic within the proposed PUD and In the vicinity of the proposed
PUD.
The Property has direct access from Hwy 6, which has adequate capacity to
accommodate this use. There will be no additional units or density created as a
result of this amendment.
12. That the PUD or amendment to PUD requested provides evidence of
substantial compliance with the following public purpose provisions, as
outlined in Section 17.28.085 of the Avon Municipal Code:
A. The application demonstrates a public purpose, which the current zoning
entitlements cannot achieve.
B. Approval of the zoning application provides long term economic, cultural
or social community benefits that are equal to or greater than potential
adverse Impacts as a result of the changed zoning rights.
40
5'
C. The flexibility afforded in approval of the zoning application will result in •
better siting of the development, preserving valued environmental and
cultural resources, and increasing the amount of public benefit consistent
with the community master plan documents.
The Avon Comprehensive Plan supports lodge type development in the town core
area, and there is a public purpose inherent with lodge type housing. The current
entitlements do not specifically allow short term rentals; however, there is an
inherent intent to accommodate these types of uses given that a rental office can
be approved by Special Review Use. The location of this property, in close
proximity to the entrance of Beaver Creek resort, and walking distance to the Town
Center, creates a compatible workable situation with adjacent uses.
Recommended Motion
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the PUD Amendment to permit short term rentals in
the Brookside PUD to the Avon Town Council with the following findings of fact related
to the applicable criteria:
1. The subject application is in substantial conformance with the Town of
Avon Comprehensive Plan Goals and Objectives (Criterion 1); and,
2. The proposed use and associated activity provide a compatible, efficient
and workable relationship with surrounding uses; and,
3. As evidenced by the PUD Development Plan's allowance to establish an
"on -site rental office" with a Special Review Use permit, the Short Term Rental •

Dear Sir /Madam, re: The Lodge at Brookside
This letter is in regard to the public meeting to permit short term rentals of
less than 30 days in all units of The Lodge at Brookside.
My wife and I are owners of unit 310. We are both vehemently opposed to
short term rentals of less than 30 days.
When we purchased the property it was listed as a condo complex. It should
remain as such.
Changing to short term rental of less than 30 days will decrease property
values. In addition it will increase repairs and maintenance required to the
structure which will have to be paid for by all of the existing owners because
of increased traffic and increased usage and damage. Common area
maintenance will have to be increased if short term rentals are allowed- once
again paid for by all owners. Since we do not rent our unit these increased
costs would be immensely unfair.
The Lodge at Brookside has existed for ten years as a condo complex and it
should remain as such. It should not be changed into a hotel.
Once again our vote is NO for short term rentals of Hess than 30 days for The
Lodge at Brookside.
Sincerely, T �G�\v�

Ordinance No. 10 -04, Series of 2010 Amending the Brookside PUD
To Permit Short Term Rental Units On Lots 2 And 3.
Summary:
The Brookside HOA submitted an application to amend the Brookside Planned Unit
Development ( "PUD ") to permit "Short Term Rentals" as a use by right on Lots 2 and 3 of the
development. Following a public hearing on February 16, 2010, the Planning and Zoning
Commission made a unanimous recommendation for approval of this application at their
March 3, 2010 meeting.
Please refer to the attached Planning and Zoning Commission packet information related to
• this application for details of the property and proposal.
Background:
The Town Council adopted a Short Term Rental Overlay Zone District last year to permit
such uses for hotel rooms condominium units or other accommodation units in specific areas
of town that were adjacent to the town core and residential in nature. PUD zoned properties
were not included in the overlay district and instead must apply for PUD amendment to
include short term rentals as a permitted use in the development.
This application is in conformance with the review criteria for PUD amendments and the
intent of the Short Term Rental Overlay District by concentrating accommodation units in
residential areas of the town core.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Council approve Ordinance No. 10 -04, Series of 2010, citing the
findings contained herein which support amending the Brookside PUD to add "Short Term
Rentals" as a use by right.
Proposed Motion:
"I move to Approve Ordinance No. 10 -04, Series of 2010 Amending the Brookside PUD to
permit short term rental units on Lots 2 and 3."

PUD Amendment
March 2, 2010 Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting
Report Date February 26, 2010
Project Type Planned Unit Development (PUD) Amendment
Legal Description Lots 2 and 3, Eaglewood Subdivision
Prepared By Matt Pielsticker, Planner II C�
Summary
The applicant, Vicki Eastman, on behalf of the Lodge at Brookside Homeowners
Association has applied for a Planned Unit Development ( "PUD ") Amendment to allow
Short Term Rentals as a use on Lots 2 and 3 of the Brookside PUD. A "Short Term
Rental" is defined as "rental of property for a total continuous duration of less than thirty
one (31) days."
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the application on February 16,
2010. After review of the application and hearing from the applicant the Commission
tabled the application and directed staff to clarify the findings and compliance with the
review criteria.
Staff therefore recommends approval of this application to allow short-term rentals as a
use in the Brookside PUD.
• Process
Short Term Rentals are regulated pursuant to Sec 17.20.140 of the Zoning Ordinance.
PUDs that are not included in the Short Term Rental Overlay District and do not already
include short term rentals as a permitted use must apply for a PUD amendment. PUD
amendments are adopted by Council Ordinance. The review process requires a
hearing and recommendation by the Commission followed by a second public hearing
before the Council.
The Brookside HOA Board of Directors, which controls the condominium and townhome
buildings on Lot 2 and Lot 3, voted to approve this application to amend the Brookside
PUD to allow short-term rentals in both buildings. The Town has received two letters
from Brookside Lodge property- owners opposing the application and a letter of support
from the master association president, Frank Navarro. All documents are included in
Exhibit D of this memorandum.
Property Description
The Brookside PUD was approved in 1996 as a mixed -use project on approximately 4.7
acres. The development is comprised of three buildings on three separate lots along
with common open space and amenities including an outdoor swimming pool and hot
tub (the Property). The Property is accessed from one shared driveway on Hwy 6 west
of W. Beaver Creek Blvd. The Property is developed in a linear fashion along Hwy 6.
• Lot 1 is located on the east side of the Property and includes a 29,500 sf office building
with 63 surface and 37 stuructured parking spaces. Lot 2 in the middle of the property is
e
2
developed with a 40 unit residential condominium known as Brookside Lodge. This building •
includes an underground parking garage with 48 spaces and 56 surface parking spaces. Lot 3
is situated on the west side of the Property, and was developed with a 14 unit
townhouse building. Each townhome includes a 1 car garage, and shares some of the
surface parking spaces for overflow /guest parking with Lot 2 adjacent to Highway 6 and
24. A site plan of the Property is attached as Exhibit B.
The Property is bordered on the north and west by the ECO river recreation path and
the Eagle River. The Sunridge Phase 11 residential condominiums border the eastern
property line and Highway 6 borders the entire southern property line. Across Highway
6 and 24 is the Bear parking lot for Beaver Creek Resort
Policy Analysis
The intent of the Short Term Rental Overlay (STRO) District regulations is to permit
"Short Term Rental uses for hotel room, condominium unit, or other accommodation in
areas of the town core that are residential in nature."
Permitting short term rentals at Brookside is consistent with the intent of the STRO
regulations. Brookside PUD is a mixed -use development which includes a residential
component and amenities; and the Property is located in close proximity to town center
amenities and both local and regional transportation services.
Planning Analysis
The applicant is requesting that short term rentals be permitted as a use in the two •
residential buildings located on the Property. The Brookside PUD contemplated such a
use, as evidenced by the fact that the permitted uses include a rental office in the
Brookside Lodge building. The HOA covenants permit short term rentals and many of
the home owners have regularly rented their units out for short term accommodations
since the project was constructed.
Parking on the site can accommodate short-term rentals in Buildings 2 and 3. Parking
for the residential portions of the project is provided at a rate of 2 spaces per unit.
Short-term rentals are typically parked at a rate of between 1.2 to 1.5 spaces per
accommodation unit.
The location of the Property and close proximity to Town Center, Beaver Creek Resort
and Hwy 6 make it suitable for tourist and guest accommodations.
All vehicles entering the property share an entrance off Highway 6 & 24, and once on
the site, vehicles either bear right towards the commercial building and underground
parking, or left towards the residential portions of the property. The regional ECO bus
stop is located approximately one quarter mile from the entrance to the site.
The circulation system for both vehicles and pedestrians is well developed and
functional on site with direct pedestrian connections provided to the river path. The
Transportation Plan envisions sidewalks or separate paved trails along Highway 6 & 24
in the future. A direct pedestrian connection adjacent to Highway 6 to the intersection
with West Beaver Creek Boulevard will help connect pedestrians and guests to the •
3
• project. In the meantime, there is sufficient access to the bus stops by walking the ECO
recreation path towards West Beaver Creek Boulevard.
Engineering Analysis
The application does not require any modifications to the Property that would require
engineering design.
Design Review
The application does not require any modifications to the Property or the buildings that
would require design review.
Findings
The proposed PUD Amendment to allow Short Term Rentals at the Brookside Lodge
and Townhomes is consistent with the review criteria set forth in Section 17.20.110 of
the Zoning Code as follows:
1. Conformance with the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan's Goals and
Objectives.
The PUD amendment would allow short term rentals on the property, which is
consistent with Avon's desire to encourage tourism and visitors.
2. Conformity and compliance with the overall design theme of the town, the
sub -area design recommendations and design guidelines of the Town.
• There are no proposed changes to the exterior design of the project that will be
required to accommodate short-term rental units on the property
3. Design compatibility with the immediate environment, neighborhood, and
adjacent properties relative to architectural design, scale, bulk, building
height, buffer zones, character, and orientation.
The architectural design of the project would remain as it is today. No aspects
related to the design compatibility with the immediate environment would be affected
with the addition of short term rentals to the list of allowed uses.
4. Uses, activity, and density provide a compatible, efficient, and workable
relationship with surrounding uses and activity.
Surrounding residential and commercial uses are compatible with short-term rentals
accommodating guests and visitors. The property is directly across Hwy 6 from the
Beaver Creek Resort parking lots and shuttle to the resort. Regional and local bus
stops near the property also make this Property well- suited for accommodating
guests and visitors.
5. Identification and mitigation or avoidance of natural and/or geologic hazards
that affect the property upon which the PUD is proposed.
The Brookside PUD is not located near any natural or geologic hazards.
6. Site plan, building design and location and open space provisions designed to
• produce a functional development responsive and sensitive to natural
features, vegetation and overall aesthetic quality of the community.
It
4
The Property is located along the south side of the Eagle River. The building and
site design of the Property are responsive to the sensitive and natural features of the •
river environment.
7. A circulation system designed for both vehicles and pedestrians addressing
on and off site traffic circulation that is compatible with the Town
Transportation Plan.
The circulation system is design for both vehicles and pedestrians. A future
sidewalk or separated path along Highway 6 and 24 is envisioned in the
Transportation Plan.
8. Functional and aesthetic landscaping and open space in order to optimize and
preserve natural features, recreation, views and function.
The Brookside PUD is well- connected with the river environment bordering the north
side of the property.
9. Phasing plan or subdivision plan that will maintain a workable, functional, and
efficient relationship throughout the development of the PUD. The phasing
plan shall clearly demonstrate that each phase can be workable, functional
and efficient without relying upon completion of future project phases.
No phasing plan is required for this proposal.
10. Adequacy of public services such as sewer, water, schools, transportation
systems, roads, parks, and police and fire protection.
The location of the ECO recreation path and nearby connecting local and regional •
bus transportation is a benefit to short term rental guests. The ECO path connects
to the Town Center with only one road crossing. No additional burden will be
experienced for public services such as sewer, water, and schools. There are no
additional anticipated impacts generated by this land -use on the property then the
current land -use mix.
11. That the existing streets and roads are suitable and adequate to carry
anticipated traffic within the proposed PUD and in the vicinity of the proposed
PUD.
The Property has direct access from Hwy 6, which has adequate capacity to
accommodate this use. There will be no additional units or density created as a
result of this amendment.
12. That the PUD or amendment to PUD requested provides evidence of
substantial compliance with the following public purpose provisions, as
outlined in Section 17.28.085 of the Avon Municipal Code:
A. The application demonstrates a public purpose, which the current zoning
entitlements cannot achieve.
B. Approval of the zoning application provides long term economic, cultural
or social community benefits that are equal to or greater than potential
adverse impacts as a result of the changed zoning rights. •
• C. The flexibility afforded in approval of the zoning application will result in
better siting of the development, preserving valued environmental and
cultural resources, and increasing the amount of public benefit consistent
with the community master plan documents.
The Avon Comprehensive Plan supports lodge type development in the town core
area, and there is a public purpose inherent with lodge type housing. The current
entitlements do not specifically allow short term rentals; however, there is an
inherent intent to accommodate these types of uses given that a rental office can
be approved by Special Review Use. The location of this property, in close
proximity to the entrance of Beaver Creek resort, and walking distance to the Town
Center, creates a compatible workable situation with adjacent uses.
Recommended Motion
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the PUD Amendment to permit short term rentals in
the Brookside PUD to the Avon Town Council with the following findings of fact related
to the applicable criteria:
1. The subject application is in substantial conformance with the Town of
Avon Comprehensive Plan Goals and Objectives (Criterion 1); and,
2. The proposed use and associated activity provide a compatible, efficient
and workable relationship with surrounding uses; and,
• 3. As evidenced by the PUD Development Plan's allowance to establish an
"on -site rental office" with a Special Review Use permit, the Short Term Rental
Use has been ongoing since construction of the project; and,
4. The Town desires to permit "Short Term Rentals" in residential /mixed -use
areas of the Town Core that are designed as such and where property owners
wish to engage in short-term renting of dwelling units; and,
5. The approval of this application and corresponding Ordinance will help to
protect and preserve the health, safety, and welfare of the Avon community."

Dear Sir /Madam, re: The Lodge at Brookside
This letter is in regard to the public meeting to permit short term rentals of
less than 30 days in all units of The Lodge at Brookside.
My wife and I are owners of unit 310. We are both vehemently opposed to
short term rentals of less than 30 days.
When we purchased the property it was listed as a condo complex. It should
remain as such.
Changing to short terns rental of less than 30 days will decrease property
values. In addition it will increase repairs and maintenance required to the
• structure which will have to be paid for by all of the existing owners because
of increased traffic and increased usage and damage. Common area
maintenance will have to be increased if short term rentals are allowed- once
again paid for by all owners. Since we do not rent our unit these increased
costs would be immensely unfair.
The Lodge at Brookside has existed for ten years as a condo complex and it
should remain as such. It should not be changed into a hotel.
Once again our vote is NO for short term rentals of less than 30 days for The
Lodge at Brookside.

Community Dave err
I am writing regarding a proposed PUD amendment that would permit "short term
rentals" in the Brookside PUD'(Lot 2 & 3, Eaglewood Subdivision, 37305 Highway 6 &
24).
I am strongly opposed to such a measure. 1 ob.lr:r_t to efliec.:tively turning that property into
a hotel. I ant fearful that the increased n- urn'?e.s t-X gent ,�rs substaiidally increase
maintenance costs and devalue the uropeutie ! owners. T'!.►i- property was
not built with any plan for short terns rerdalls. i lau thai tht case, l would not have
purchased property there.
Very sincerely,
Mervin W. Graham
