STAFF REPORT TO PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION - 11/3/87
Lots 26/27, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek
Mountain Center - Special Review Use Request to
Allow General Commercial Offices and Personal Service
Outlets
Public Hearing
INTRODUCTION:
0
Vail Building Arts Associates, owners of the Mountain Center project now under
construction on Lots 26/27, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek, has requested
approval of a Special Review Use to allow general commercial offices and personal
service outlets in the project. The original approval for the project limited
the uses in the building to. those uses specifically allowed in the IC Zone
District. General commercial offices and personal service outlets are only
allowed in the IC Zone District with Special Review Use approval.
-STAFF COMMENTS:
If the previous vaviance request for the project was approved which excludes the
mini-storage area from the parking requirements for the project, Staff estimates
that the total leaseable area for Phase I is approximately 26,500 square feet.
Parking -requirements based on 1 space/800 square feet would mean that 34 spaces
are required for Phase I. If the parking is constructed per the approved site
plan, there would be approximately 56 parking spaces available for Phase I. This
leaves approximately 21 spaces above the minimum parking requirements for Phase I
which could be applied to the general commercial office and personal service
outlets requirement of 3 spaces per 1,000 square feet. Under this scenario, the
developer could devote approximately 10,000 square feet in Phase I to general
commercial office and personal service outlet uses.
Since a site plan has not been submitted showing parking for Phase II, it is
difficult to determine parking requirements for Phase II. Staff feels that, if
the Commission approves this Special Review Use request, that approval may be
granted for the entire project, but each request for general commercial office
or personal service outlet uses should be reviewed by Staff for conformance with
parking requirements and that general commercial office and personal service
outlet occupants be limited to an amount for which on-site parking is available.
RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE:
According to Section 17.20.040 of the Zoning Code, the Commission shall approve
or deny the Special Review Use after considering certain factors that are listed
below. Those items in parentheses are Staff responses to the criteria:
A.' The adequacy,of access to the site with respect to the width of the
adjacent streets, their grades, intersection safety, visibility and
entrance into the lot to be developed:
(The existing street, Nottingham Road, and the existing access onto
Lots 26/27 are both adequate to handle the traffic generated by the
proposed use.)

B. Whether there exists safe access and sufficient water pressure to
provide fire protection;
(The site has sufficient access and water pressure for fire protection.)
C. The existent water pressure in the area and the ability of the water
system to supply domestic needs;
(The proposed use should not greatly increase water needs for the project.)
D. Whether there will be provided sufficient off-street parking as determined
by (1) the intended use of the property, (2) walking distance to the downtown
area, and (3) the availability of public transportation;
E. The impact of the development, considering the potential for stream and
air pollution, the availability of public transportation and other public
or private services, and any other factors affecting the overall development
and the surrounding areas, including but not limited to building height,
view plane, drainage and other physical and aesthetical features.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
If the Commission approves this Special Review Use request, the appropriate
action would be to adopt Resolution 87-15 which Staff has prepared. If the
Commission denies this request the Resolution should be modified to reflect
the reasons for denial.
RECOMMENDED'ACTIONS:
1. Introduce Special Review Use request;
2. Presentation by applicant;
3. Conduct Public Hearing;
4. Commission's review of criteria required for Special Review Use approval;
5. Amend Resolution 87-15 to reflect Commission finding and desired action;
6. Adopt Resolution 87-15 as amended.
