V. Consent Agenda Commissioner Karow motioned for the approval of the Minutes from the January 4th, 2005, Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting; Commissioner Struve seconded the motion .and the motion passed 4-0 with Commissioner Smith abstaining due to absence at the meeting. VI. Sketch Design = Single-family Residence Property Location: Lot 21, Block 3, Wildridge Subdivision/4250 Wildridge Road West Applican80wner: Erich Burkhard Description: The applicant, Erich Burkhard, is proposing is single-family residence with a first floor caretakers unit on this duplex -zoned lot. The size of the residence is 4,227 square feet, which includes garage space and a proposed maximum height of 32'.' Proposed materials include western red cedar, colored concrete to match existing stones on-site, aluminum window frames, and asphalt shingles. Ken Kovalchik presented the Staff Report to the Commission. Laddy Clark, friend of the applicant, approached the podium as Mr. Burkhard's representative. Mr. Burkhard communicated to Mr. Clark specific responses to FAPIanning & Zoning CommissionNinutes\2005\011805.DOC Page 1 of 5 L issues in the Staff Report. Those issues included the following: (1) Entrance - Mr. Burkhard will conform to whatever it is you would like him to do; (2) Drainage — there is an 18" pipe under the driveway as shown by page 2.S.B.1 Driveway Entrance Detail; and (3) he will have a Colorado Registered Engineer handle the retaining wall issues to satisfy the requirements. Commissioner Evans questioned the overhangs on the west elevation. Mr. Clark was not prepared to answer and assumed Mr. Burkhard's drawings would have addressed Commissioner Evans' concerns. Commissioner Evans continued by explaining to the Commission that his confusion stems from looking at the west elevation and where it turns on the right hand side and starts the south elevation, one can see the dash lines at the roof line where it depicts an overhang. However, on the north elevation, on the last page, and took at the right side, west elevation, it appears that the edge of the roof is right in line with the wall plane. Commissioner Evans continued that he may be mis-reading it or it might be stepping back, it is hard to tell from the drawings provided. Ken Kovalchik remarked that he had difficulty interpreting the drawings, as stated in his Staff Report, he was unsure if the west property line was a foundation line or a roof overhang located within a setback. Overhangs and setbacks could not be deciphered from the drawings. Commissioner Struve also had difficulty interpreting the drawings and visualizing what the house would look like. He felt the caretaker unit was difficult to access and concerned that the unit had no garage space. Commissioner Struve continued that the north elevation had a massive roof and the west elevation side of the house is hard to tell if it is all the same surface and needs more detail. Commissioner Smith agreed with Commissioner Struve's comments that the set of plans were difficult to read and felt clarification was warranted. Commissioner Karow commented that the bulk and mass met Design Guidelines; the north, south and east elevations were compliant with the Design Review Guidelines; the west elevation sticks out and looked rather large and could benefit to look like the other elevations. Commissioner Karow continued with agreeing with Staffs report that the primary concerns are get the building out of the setback, curb cuts need to comply with the 18' maximum length, and the 18" overhangleaves as required. Commissioner Trueblood commented that parking, driveway and garage did not have a separate identity with the caretaker unit in the event the project would be subdivided. Commissioner Evans expressed that the overhangs could help to break up the massing especially on the west elevation. He also asked for some clarification on the left side of the east elevation and the right side of the west elevation, as there seems to be a column stuck up in mid air. Commissioner Evans continued " FAPIanning & Zoning CommissionNinutes\2005\011805.DOC Page 2 of 5 t fi t that the stone veneer on the base of the house is not stone veneer but it is colored concrete with an Ashler stone patterned concrete form liner. It was Commissioner Evans' interpretation of the Design Review Guidelines that this product does not meet the requirements. Mr. Clark asked for clarity on the points Mr. Burkhard needed to address: (1) overhang and potential encroachment on the west elevation; (2) west elevation's need to more closely adhere to architectural standards; (3) two living spaces and not enough parking to accommodate appropriately; (4) the stone veneer made of concrete meets Building Code but not Design Guidelines unless it receives specific approval by the Commission; and (5) the column(s) needs clarification. VII Old Business - Chateau St. Claire (The Gates on Beaver Creek) Property Location: Lot 1, Chateau St. Claire Subdivision/38390 Hwy 6 Applicant Parkhill-Ivins, P.C. Owner: CSC Land, LLC Description: Michael Stornello of Parkhill-Ivins, P.C. has submitted a color rendering of the Chateau St. Claire (The Gates on Beaver Creek) per a condition of the Minor Modification approval heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission on December 7th, 2004.' Eric Heidemann presented an update memo to the Commission. Mike Stornello, Parkhill-lvans representative on behalf of the owner for the project, provided to the Commission the current plan rendering as requested by the Commission in the December 7th, 2004, Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting. Mr. Stornello also provided the summer of 2003 rendering in order to present the changes in the project. Mr. Stornello continued with discussing the elevation modifications that included changing some of the stucco colors, the deletion of planter boxes, canvas awning at the north side of the building deletion, roof tiles were changed from a composite material to a concrete tile, the stained window head and sills were replaced with cement stuccos detailing, and the turret at the round element in plan changed from a Baroque piece to a more outlined type of detailing. Commissioner Evans voiced that this presentation was not in lieu of a mock up. Mr. Stornello agreed. Eric Heidemann mentioned that the mock up was due to the commission on April 301°, 2005. Mr. Stornello requested to meet with the Commission prior to the construction of the mock up in order to make sure it will be designed according to the Commission's concerns and guidelines. Vlll Other Business Commissioner Trueblood inquired regarding the policy of leaving the room when a Commissioner had a conflict of interest with an agenda item. John Dunn, Town Attorney, had requested that commissioners leave the room. FAPIanning & Zoning CommissionNinutes120055011805. DOC Page 3 of 5 16 Commissioner Trueblood questioned the Eagle County's Revised Comprehensive Plan and the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan and the concept of putting both plans in the same room for discussion. Tambi Katieb responded that Eagle County's draft is in our possession and under review by staff. Eric Heidemann mentioned to the Commission that Bill Van Curen appealed the Commission's decision on the fence and was remanded back to the Commission. An application and a landscape plan are expected to be submitted in the near future. Tambi Katieb stated that Town Council had commented during the last Council Meeting that motions made by the Planning and Zoning Commission on any file need to be based on the criteria of the Design Review Guidelines. Commissioner Evans responded that there is a need to reference the Guidelines in the motions. Commissioner Trueblood opened the discussion on the recent Town Council handout regarding the 10 -point checklist for a commission position. Commissioner Karow mentioned that greater communication and dialogue between the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Town Council would be useful. Commissioner Didier commented on the checklist presented in that meeting. Commissioner Karow mentioned that a prepared agenda would be beneficial along with a round table format. Commissioner Struve commented that any meeting with an agenda and objective was a more productive use of time. Commissioner Evans voiced that a meeting later than 3:30 pm might be better timing. Commissioner Evans and Commissioner Trueblood discussed the Metcalf Road parking/traffic/truck issue. Commissioner Evans mentioned the difficulty in locating commercial/industrial-zoned property in this end of the valley and its need. VIII. Adjourn Commissioner Trueblood made the motion to adjourn. Commissioner Smith seconded and the motion was unanimously approved. The meeting adjourned at 6:25 pm.

AVON nC 0 L 0 R d D 0 February 1, 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Report date January 25, 2005 Project type Single-family Legal description Lot 5, Western Sage PUD Subdivision Zoning Single-family Residence Address N/A Introduction The applicants, George and Amy Ruther, are proposing a single-family residence on this lot. The total floor area of the residence is 3,523 square feet with a maximum building height of 32'. Proposed materials include wood siding, stone veneer, composite roofing and corrugated metal roofing. The Western Sage PUD was approved by Ordinance 04-15 and effectively down zoned Lots 54, 55, 89, and 90, Block 4 Wildridge from an allowed use of 11 dwelling units to 8 single-family lots (Lots 1-8 Western Sage PUD). Lots 1-5 will be accessed from a platted access easement extending from Longsun Lane and Lots 6-8 will be accessed from Wildridge Road East. The final plat for this PUD has not yet been submitted to the Town for approval and the applicants are aware that a final design application cannot be submitted until the plat has been recorded. Staff Comments The design of the proposed single-family residence appears to generally conform to the Town of Avon Residential Commercial. and Industrial Design Review Guidelines. The proposed building height and massing of the structure appears to be consistent with the residential design guidelines. The maximum building height of the structure measures, 32', which is less than the maximum allowable of 35 feet. The maximum lot coverage of 50% (including impervious surface) has been adhered to. The applicants are proposing 2,890 sq. ft (7.5%) of lot coverage and will be confirmed at final design. Corrugated metal roofing is proposed on a portion of the northeast elevation roof. The Exterior Walls, Roofs, and Architectural Interest section of the Guidelines state; 'Large expanses of bright, reflective materials will not be acceptable, however, metal such as copper, cor-ten may be acceptable.' Staff does not feel the proposed corrugated metal roof would qualify as a large expanse. The grade for the first 20' of the driveway entrance does not exceed 4%. A spot elevation of 8,510 is indicated at the driveway entrance and contour interval 8510' extends the length of the driveway. The proposed residence is greater than 2,500 sq. ft. and the residential guidelines state that a minimum of 3 parking spaces shall be Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748.4030 Fax(970)949-5749 1 Lot 5, Western Sage PUD Si..b,e-family Sketch Design February 1, 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 3 provided. According to the site plan, a total of 2 garage spaces and 2 outdoor spaces have been provided. Note #3 on the Western Sage PUD states, 'Vehicular access to lots 1-5 shall utilize the common access easement platted herein. Vehicular access to Lots 1-5 shall not be allowed to occur directly off of Longsun Lane.' The developer will be responsible for constructing the road to access Lots 1-5. The site plan indicates three retaining walls on the southeastern side of the residence and one retaining wall at the driveway entrance. The retaining wall near the trash enclosure is proposed to be 5' in height. This wall is structural and will be required to be designed by a Colorado Registered Professional Engineer. The two retaining walls located near the hammerhead turnaround are proposed at 2' and 3'. The retaining wall proposed at the Lot 5 driveway entrance is located within the Western Sage PUD access easement to Lots 1-5. Top of Wall and Bottom of Wall elevations have not been indicated on the site plan for this retaining wall and will be required at final design. The proposed grading on the northeastern side of the residence does not appear to be correct. Proposed elevations 8510' and 8514' terminate into the northeastern corner of the residence. It is not indicated as to what is proposed for elevation 8512'. It appears that proposed grade 8514' should terminate closer to the trash enclosure than has been indicated on the site plan. This will then allow for elevation 8412' to be proposed to terminate at the northeastern corner of the residence and allow for adequate drainage around the residence to occur. The sketch plan as presented generally conforms to the Town's residential design guidelines. However, staff has identified several issues that need further clarification prior to submittal of the final design plan. These issues include: 1) Top of Wall and Bottom of Wall elevations for the driveway entrance retaining wall, 2) revise existing and proposed grades for elevations on the northeastern corner of the residence to allow for adequate drainage around the residence, 3) all structural retaining walls shall be designed by a Colorado Registered Professional Engineer, 4) all non -developable areas shall be indicated on the survey, and 5) a vicinity map shall be included on the site plan, and 6) the final plat for the Western Sage PUD shall be recorded prior to final design submittal. Design Review Considerations The Commission and Staff shall evaluate the design of the sketch plan utilizing the specific Design Standards, and by using the following general criteria: A. The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Zoning Code. B. General conformance with Residential Development Sections A through D of the Town of Avon Residential. Commercial and Industrial Design Review Guidelines. Staff will prepare a memo to the Commission highlighting anticipated areas of discussion for the submittal materials. The Commission will take no formal action on the sketch plan application. Rather, direction on the design will be given to the applicant from Staff and the Commission to incorporate in the final design application. Staff will provide full plan sets for you to provide written comments and guidance to the applicant at your February 1, 2005 meeting.

These guidelines should be used by property owners, architects, designers, and builders, along with the "Town of Avon Residential. Commercial, and Industrial design Review Guidelines", adopted November 6, 2001, when making decisions regarding single-family residential development of Lots 1 thru 5, Western Sage PUD. These guidelines are intended to ensure residential development of the highest quality while preserving the unique natural character of the existing landscape. In addition, these guidelines are established to preserve and protect property values by ensuring that future development on Lots 1 thru 5 is compatible with existing structures, their surroundings, and the unique built and natural environment of the Wildridge neighborhood. Compatibility of future development can be achieved through proper consideration of scale, proportions, site planning, landscaping, and exterior building materials and colors. Whenever possible, natural slopes and vegetation should be preserved and/or replaced. The objective of future development on Lots 1 thru 5 is to 'fit" buildings into the topography and to pay particular attention to preserving existing vegetation on the site. In order to achieve the goal of high quality residential development which remains sensitive to the natural character of the existing landscape, the developer and/or each individual property owner should make all reasonable efforts to design and adhere to the site development and landscape design recommendations set forth herein. Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines Individual property owners wishing to construct single-family residences on Lots 1 thru 5, Western Sage PUD are encouraged to adhere to the site development and landscape design guidelines contained herein. Adherence is encouraged in the design phase of the residences as well as during the actual construction process. The Western Sage PUD, being located within the Wildridge Subdivision and the Town of Avon municipal boundaries, shall be governed by all laws and ordinances duly adopted by the Avon Town Council. This shall include, but not be limited to, compliance with the Town's established zoning, land development regulations, design review guidelines and development review processes. Design review of future development on Lots 1 thru 5 shall comply with the processes and procedures prescribed in the Town of Avon Municipal Code. Where conflicts between this document and the Town's duly adopted laws and ordinances, exist, the Town's laws and ordinances shall take precedence and control. Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines SITE DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES • Purpose The site development guidelines are intended to protect the natural characteristics of the site and to preserve the inherent qualities that exist within the Wildridge neighborhood. To that end, the goal of the site development guidelines is to minimize and direct any negative physical and visual impacts of single-family development within the Western Sage PUD. For example, site grading, building location, vehicular access, slope retention, drainage, etc. should be responsive to the topography and vegetation existing on site. Buildings should blend in with the natural setting, be stepped with the natural topography, and fit into their surroundings rather than appearing to have been forced onto the site. • Building Siting All future development shall be constructed entirely within the platted building envelopes with exceptions as noted on the Western Sage PUD Final Plat. The purpose of the building envelope is to ensure the preservation of certain areas of the site, to help ensure that future development responds favorably to the topography of the site, and to provide the Town, neighbors and individual property owner's with assurances as to the future location of each of the single-family residences. Limits of disturbance fences shall be illustrated on the proposed site plan and demarcated on the property throughout the duration of the construction process. Building siting should be responsive to existing terrain features, established drainage courses, existing vegetation, views, and passive solar exposure. • Preservation of Existing Vegetation The goal of the proposed landscape plan should be to preserve and enhance any natural vegetation on the site. To that end, special attention shall be given to ensuring that existing vegetation located within non -developable areas and areas not proposed to be impacted by development is protected. To ensdre that existing vegetation is minimally impacted, limits of disturbance fencing is required, erosion control measures shall be taken, and approved site grading shall be strictly adhered to throughout the construction process. Whenever possible, existing vegetation should be maintained as an asset to the site rather than regarded as a nuisance which can be removed to ease the construction process. • Drainage To the extent possible, all existing drainage patterns on the site should remain unaltered. Once established, all drainage ways and easements shall remain free of obstructions. Areas of concentrated runoff should be treated (ie. rip -rap) to minimize soil erosion. Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines Gutters should be installed to direct roof drainage away from areas such as garage entrances, entrances and doorways, and patios or decks. • Grading Responsive grading can have long-lasting positive impacts to the site and surrounding areas. All on-site improvements should be sensitively designed to minimize any unnecessary disruption to the site. The presences of excessive retaining walls and substantial loss of existing vegetation may be an indicator of excessive or inappropriate grading. Built structures should be located to minimize the amount of grading and placed in such a manner as to act as slope retainage for the site. The maximum grade of all disturbed slopes shall not exceed 2:1. All grading should be sculpted to blend back into the surrounding landforms to help maintain a natural appearance. • Vehicular Access/Driveways Whenever possible, all access drives should follow the natural contours and topography of the site, respecting landforms and existing vegetation. Maximum driveway grades shall conform to the Town's adopted standards for driveway access. Parking areas should be screened with earthen berms and vegetation whenever possible. The length and width of future driveways should be minimized to reduce the amount of impervious surfaces on.the site. Adequate areas for snow storage shall be provided on each individual site to prevent the accumulation of plowed snow along common access areas. All driveway and parking surfaces shall be asphalt, concrete pavers, stone cobbles, or a combination thereof. Driveways surfaces should be sited to take advantage of passive solar exposure to prevent icing and the accumulation of snow. • Fencing/Privacy Screening Fencing around yards is prohibited. Privacy walls are discouraged. Privacy walls which do not exceed six feet in height as measured from finish grade to the top of the wall may be constructed around decks and hot tub areas. "Living" privacy walls (ie. trees, shrubs and bushes) are the preferred alternative for providing screening and privacy within a site. • Outdoor Lighting Outdoor lighting is necessary to provide security, safety, and aesthetic illumination of a site. To prevent light pollution and intrusion of light onto adjoining properties, outdoor light fixtures shall be directed only where light is needed and should be low level light sources which are fully cut-off or shielded. The use of flood light fixtures and lights with exposed bulbs is prohibited. Uplighting of landscaping and landscape features is discouraged. The use of an automatic timer on outdoor landscape lighting is encouraged. Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN GUIDELINES • Purpose The architectural design guidelines are intended to preserve the aesthetic quality of the built environment within the site and to enhance the visual aesthetic of the surrounding residential neighborhood. To that end, the goal of the architectural design guidelines is to provide architectural controls to ensure that the architectural design of structures and their exterior materials and colors are visually harmonious with the town's overall appearance, with surrounding development, and with natural and existing topography. For example, building materials and colors, building scale and form, and building orientation should be responsive to their surroundings. These guidelines are intended to promote residential development of the highest quality. • Building Height Maximum building height shall not exceed 35 feet. Building height shall be determined by utilizing the town's adopted methodology for calculating building height. • Foundations Building foundations shall be covered in stone, plaster stucco, or wood to prevent the presence of exposed concrete foundation walls. Whenever possible, finish grade should be brought up to minimize the amount of potentially exposed foundation wall area. Minimum building code standards for distances between the ground and wood siding shall be met. • Exterior Wall Materials Exterior wall materials should be an assemblage of materials that add architectural variety, visual interest, and texture to the building. The use of highly durable, high quality materials which weather well in a high altitude, mountainous environment is encouraged. Exterior walls shall be designed with a clear definition of base, middle, and top which should relate to the proposed building forms. Primary wall materials shall include stone and wood siding. Plaster stucco may be acceptable when used in limited amounts as a secondary wall material. Changes in wall materials should only occur at inside corners of the building and along horizontal breaks in the elevations. No one wall material should dominate an elevation of a structure. Generally speaking, stone veneer should be used to establish a base for the building. Lighter materials such as wood siding or plaster stucco should sit atop the stone and form the middle portion of the building. Large, uninterrupted building wall segments should be avoided. Changes in wall materials or wall material application along with window fenestration should be incorporated into the design. Architectural details such as trim, shutters, corbels, bracing, exposed rafters and beams, etc, should be included to add visual interest into the overall design. A well-proportioned pitched roof shall be constructed to finish off the building. Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines • Fenestration All windows should be appropriately sized to match their surrounding wall surfaces and materials. Fenestration within field materials (plaster stucco and wood) should be designed with decorative trim and sills, or heavy structural frames so that they do not appear as "punch outs" in the wall. The shapes of windows should be selected to complement the architecture of the building. All windows should strive to add visual interest through the incorporation of mullions, muntins, and divided lites. • Colors Building colors for structures within the Western Sage PUD should be chosen to blend with the surrounding mountain environment. Earth tones in various shades of browns, beiges, and grays are encouraged. Colors and hues found in natural stones and naturally - weathering woods are most desirable. Complementary darker colors of similar hues should be used to accent decks, fascia, door and window trim, garage doors, etc. • Roof Design A well-designed roof is proportionate to the structure it sits atop. In the case of the Western Sage PUD, primary roofs forms should be predominately gable roofs with a pitch of at least 5/12. More steeply pitching roofs are encouraged. Roofs should be designed with environmental and climatic considerations such as snow shedding, drainage, solar exposure, wind direction, etc. in mind. Secondary roof forms such as shed roofs are encouraged when used to cover exterior decks, entry ways, and dormers. Roof surfacing shall be primarily asphalt shingles that are no less than 350 pounds per roofing square. Metal materials such as corten and copper are encouraged on secondary roof forms. In no instance, however, will metal roofs be permitted that reflect direct sunlight onto adjacent properties. Roofs should contain deep eaves and overhangs that provide protection from the elements and cast shadows upon the facade of the building. • Chimneys All flues 6" in diameter or greater which penetrate roofs shall be designed with chimneys. The size of the chimney should be in scale with the architecture of the building. Chimneys shall be covered in stone veneer, wood siding, or plaster stucco. Chimneys shall terminate with a decorative cap made of metal or stone. Special attention should be given to the chimney cap design to avoid the appearance of being too bulky or top-heavy. • Utility Meters, Satellite TV Dishes, Trash Containers Utility meters, satellite tv dishes and outdoor trash storage areas shall be screened from view from neighboring properties. Screening may be accomplished through placement on the building, physical screening with landscaping, or painted a color to blend with the Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines site and structure. In no instance shall satellite tv dishes be permitted on roof tops, reflect sunlight, or contain advertising of any kind. Trash storage shall be located within the main structure and fully enclosed from view from adjacent properties. Western Sage PUD Architectural Site Development & Landscape Design Guidelines t LANDSCAPE DESIGN GUIDELINES • Purpose The landscape design guidelines are intended to preserve the aesthetic quality of the natural environment of the site and to enhance the visual aesthetic of the site and the surrounding residential neighborhood. To that end, the goal of the landscape design guidelines is to provide landscape design controls to ensure that the landscape design of site is visually harmonious with surrounding development and with the natural and existing vegetation. • Design Philosophy The intended philosophy of the landscape design is to harmonize the building sites with the natural topography and existing vegetation. Extra care should be taken to disturb as little of the site as possible during the construction process. When areas are disturbed, revegetation utilizing existing and native plants and grasses should be utilized. The use of non-native plant materials shall be limited to providing accent and color to the site and structures. Whenever possible, plants indigenous to the area should be utilized. The landscape planting design should be such that it de- emphasizes the location of property lines between the sites. Xersiscape practices are highly encouraged to reduce water consumption and maintenance requirements. Large turf areas are discouraged. Recommended Landscape Plant Material A recommended list of landscape plant materials can be found in Appendix 1, "Town of Avon Residential Commercial and Industrial Design Review Guidelines", adopted November 6, 2001. Additional plants that should be considered for use include serviceberry, buckthorn, cotoneaster, sage, rabbitbrush, snowberry, and mountain mahogany. • Retaining Walls Retaining walls design shall comply with the standards outlined in the,: `Town of adopted November 6, 2001.

The exterior improvements include: 1) an addition of 400 sq. ft. at the north entrance, which will include an interior staircase from the first floor to the second floor; 2) a walk-in cooler will be added to the south side of the building on the existing patio area; 3) a new steel loading dock and steel ramp will be added to the south side of the building, where the existing south side entry is located; 4) new 6' and 8' high cedar fence around the southern patio area; and 5) anew roof supported by steel columns for an outdoor seating area on the existing southern patio. The first floor gourmet food store will include bakery and coffee shop, wine center, sandwich and salad cafe, and specialty and prepared foods. The second floor will consist of a banquet facility, tabletop and cookware retail, and the culinary cooking center. Staff Comments The proposed exterior design modifications appears to generally conform to the Town of Avon Residential Commercial and Industrial Design Review Guidelines. The proposed use of the Belle Fare establishment appears to conform to the allowed uses indicated in the Chapel Square PUD. The major improvements for the north entrance are proposed to match the existing materials in Chapel Square. The roofing material proposed for the south patio (translucent polycarbonate) is not specifically listed in the commercial design guidelines as an acceptable or unacceptable material. Steel trusses are proposed to support the roof. The commercial guidelines state 'exposed metal flashing, gutters, downspouts or other building appurtenances must be copper, steel, iron or aluminum, applied and fastened in a high quality manner. When painted, these elements must be finished with a baked enamel paint, epoxy paint, or a silicon -modified alloy'. At final design the applicant shall indicate if any steel will be exposed and what product will be used to paint the steel.

The wall will consist of a canvas material, which is not specifically listed as an acceptable or unacceptable material in the commercial design guidelines. Staff is recommending the Commission specifically address this material. Prior to, or along with the final design application Belle Fare will be required to submit an application for a sign permit. If the proposed signs do not comply with the master sign program for the Chapel Square PUD, Belle Fare will be required to amend the sign program. The sketch plan as presented generally conforms to the Town's commercial design guidelines. However, staff has identified several issues that need further clarification prior to submittal of the final design plan. These issues include: 1) the proposed translucent polycarbonate roofing material; 2) what material will be used to paint any exposed steel on the patio enclosure; 3) proposed canvas material for the seasonal patio wall; and 4) sign permit. Design Review Considerations The Commission and Staff shall evaluate the design of the sketch plan utilizing the specific Design Standards, and by using the following general criteria: A. The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Zoning Code. B. General conformance with Residential Development Sections A through D of the Town of Avon Residential Commercial and Industrial Design Review Guidelines. Staff will prepare a memo to the Commission highlighting anticipated areas of discussion for the submittal materials. The Commission will take no formal action on the sketch plan application. Rather, direction on the design will be given to the applicant from Staff and the Commission to incorporate in the final design application. Staff will provide full plan sets for you to provide written comments and guidance to the applicant at your February 1, 2005 meeting. If you have any questions regarding this project or any planning matter, please call me at 748-4017, or stop by the Community Development Department.
