Re: The Village (at Avon) Sketch Plan Approval - Resolution No. 03-39, Series of
-2003
Summary:. Traer Creek RP LLC has submitted an application for Subdivision
Sketch Plan approval in conjunction with an application for-a formal PUD Amendment to The
Village (at Avon) Development Plan' and PUD Guide to Planning Areas G, M, N, Q, RMF-1,
RMF-4, OS-5 and OS-13. A revised Sketch Plan was submitted October 7, 2003 that
corresponds with a Revised PUD Plan submitted September 30, 2003. The revised Sketch
Plan; and supporting documentation have been reviewed for compliance and compatibility
with the proposed PUD Amendment, prior agreements and Town of Avon Subdivision
Regulations. Based upon this review we recommend approval of Resolution No. 03-39, A
Resolution Approving Subdivision Sketch Plan for The Village (at. Avon) Filing 3, A
Resubdivision of Portions of Sections 7, 8 and 9, Township 5. South, Range 81 West of the 6d'
Principal Meridian, Town of Avon, Eagle County, Colorado, concurrently with approval of
Ordinance No. 03-10, an Ordinance approving Formal PUD Amendment No. 1. -
The attached Draft of Resolution No. 03-39 has been modified to require a roundabout at the
intersection of Post Boulevard and Swift Gulch Road, and to correspond with the revised PUD
and Sketch Plan.
Discussion: Documentation submitted with the' Sketch Plan Application
includes an Engineering Geologic Reconnaissance of Tract M and Upper Access Road by
Golder Associates, Inc., a traffic study by LSC Transportation Consultants, Inc. and letters
from Eagle River W ater.& S anitation District and Excel Energy indicating their ability to
provide water, sewer and natural gas service to Tract M.

The Golder Engineering Geologic Reconnaissance identifies some potential hazard areas
along the proposed access road to Planning Area RMF4, and within the Planning Area. The
report also states, "The required mitigation can be implemented using conventional civil,
geotechnical, and hydrologic engineering practices."
The LSC traffic study i ncludes t rip g eneration for m aximum a nticipated d evelopment a nd
evaluates impacts on proposed roadway design. We believe the study reflects potential traffic
expected to be generated by the proposed zoning and the impacts on the street network. We
generally concur with recommendations in the report with the exceptions that are based upon a
Level of Service (LOS) of D as being satisfactory. The Town of Avon has established LOS C
as a minimum satisfactory LOS. We believe the following conditions included in Resolution
03-39 will improve the projected LOS to C or better in all areas.
1. Post Boulevard / Road D / Swift Gulch Road / Road 1 Intersection shall be
constructed as a roundabout to maintain Level of Service C per Town of Avon
Standards.
2. Swift Gulch Road
a. Minimum distance from Post Boulevard intersection to entrances and
minimum distance between entrances shall be 300 feet.
b. Left turn lanes shall have a minimum width of 12 feet.
c. Left turn lanes shall extend to the westerly boundary of Tract Q.
3. Road 1 (Swift Gulch Road East)
a. Minimum distance from Post Boulevard intersection to entrances and
minimum distance between entrances shall be 300 feet.
b. Left turn lanes shall have' a nummum width of 12 feet.
c. Left turn lanes shall'extend to the easterly boundary of RMF-1.
The letter from Eagle River Water & Sanitation District indicates an ability to serve Tract M
with the understanding it is within the scope of the original PUD and 2400 Units. The
proposed Formal PUD Amendment No. 1 allows up to 310 residential units in Planning Area
RMF4 that are in addition to the 2400 Units in the original PUD. Resolution No. 03-39
includes the following condition:
Submit documentation for additional water rights dedication, adjudication and
approved related agreements with Upper Eagle Regional Water Authority and the
Town of Avon for residential units and irrigated areas in RMF-4 (Tract M).
We believe this will assure that adequate water rights will be provided for the potential
development on Tract M (Planning Area RMF-4)
