Mr. Heidemann moved to the podium to assist with the visual presentation. The discussion began with Subarea 13. Subarea 13: West of Nottingham Lake area. Berms were discussed along with planting in CDOT right-of-way. Discussion revolved around the definitions of density, (i.e. Low, medium and high,) and the redevelopment of the trailer park into residential low density as it is currently zoned. The commissioners agreed upon a maximum of three stories and a change to "medium density' on the future land use map; and it should remain a low priority area. Subarea 14: Commissioners commented that this subarea is appropriate as written. Subarea 15: No comments. Subarea 16: Discussion revolved around upping the zoning and its relationship to water rights, infrastructure and traffic support. It was determined that the subarea policies were appropriate for this area. Subarea 17: Responses concentrated on moving it to a medium priority, changes to the planning principles for the area, including preservation measures for the area. Subarea 18: Remain as presented. Subarea 19: Suitable bike lanes separated from the road should be included in this subarea and formalizing paths to the open space parcels connecting for recreation purposes.

No public comment. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED VII. Minor Project — Benchmark Shopping Center Painting Property Location: Tract Q, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Applicant: Description: The applicant is proposing to paint the body of the Benchmark Shopping Center building Castle Path Beige (Behr 730C-3) and paint the exterior columns, trim, entry doors of main building, and storefront of future Finnegan's Wake Irish Pub a Midnight Blue (Behr 570F-7). The applicant has applied the proposed colors to a small area at the entrance of Loaded Joe's and on the side of Finnegan's Wake for review. Eric Heidemann presented the staff report to the Commission and voiced that the applicant has made alterations since the report was generated. Anthony Cassar, owner of project, approached the podium to discuss the color selections. Robert Borg approached the podium to comment on the color selections and the owners desire to convey the project as an Irish pub. Commissioner Evans questioned the use of the blue color to identify an Irish pub. Mr. Borg responded that it was a Victorian character they were aiming for and the owner's first choice of color. Commissioner Struve asked regarding the light colors to be used. Mr. Cassar responded that the light beige was presented with the desired colors to show contrast and the blue was to be for trim, fascia and doors. Commissioner review began with Commissioner Karow commenting that the building was in need of paint and colors, colors were compatible with other stores in the area and that it met with design criteria. Commissioner Savage voiced that the building was too large for the blue color in the pattern presented, commented that as trim the blue was more appropriate, and mentioned that there was no consistency in the color flow. Commissioner Smith could not support the amount of blue color as proposed, as did Commissioner Savage, and agreed with the maroon color. Commissioner Struve favored the blue on the entrance portion of the front but not on the whole horizontal area of the front. Commissioner Evans expressed concern with the body color of the entire building and found it difficult to understand their true proposal. Commissioner Evans continued with his concern of the base color and expressed that the color was a mistake after having visited the site. Commissioner Evans continued that the mass with the light beige, which tends to bring out flaws of the structure, had the potential of being a huge mistake. He sited other buildings that had to color change after the paint was applied, (i.e. Chapel Square) and commented that the colors presented were not appropriate. r� Mr. Cassar commented that the building was drab and wanted to use colors to bring the public in. He continued with the reflective context of the color and the intent to get the building to stand out. Commissioner Evans responded that he understood the desire for the building to stand out in the applicant's perspective but the commission needs to compliment the building with others in the area. Theresa Borg approached the podium and discussed the colors of the other buildings within the area as being beige, blue, and light gray and these colors would enhance the Town of Avon. Maggie Parker approached the podium to discuss the blue color by commenting that they wanted the building to look like a pub and not a storefront image or brown, as a cowboy bar. Commissioner Karow moved for approval as presented. Commissioner Evans seconded the motion. Commissioner Savage could not support the color scheme as presented. Commissioner Evans commented that he would rather see brass letters on the blue color than a lit sign in brown. Motion failed three to two. Commissioner Struve motioned to accept the "Lost Summit" color for the body, "Bison" brown and the "Midnight" blue for the trim for the front of the building and does not include the covered walkway. Commissioner Savage seconded the motion. Ms. Parker asked about the deck color to remain its current brown. The motion passed 4 to 1, with Commissioner Karow disapproving. VIII. Master Sign Program Amendment Property Location: Tract Q, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Applicant: Maggie Parker, Finnegan's Wake Traditional Irish Pub Description: Maggie Parker is proposing new signage for the Benchmark Shopping Center building. There are three new signs proposed and they would be for a new tenant in the old Cassidy's "Hole in the Wall" space. Two building mounted signs and one freestanding sign are proposed with this application. One of the building signs would replace the existing oval Cassidy's sign, and the other one would be mounted on the west elevation near the entrance to the deck and the new tenant's main entrance. The freestanding sign would be located near the northeast vehicle entrance to the property. Matt Pielsticker presented the Staff Report to the Commission. Mr. Borg approached the podium to field questions. Commissioner Savage commented that the freestanding sign was not similar to other freestanding signs in the area. Commissioner Karow mentioned that the building footprint was almost a separate building and could qualify for the sign. Commissioner Karow was concerned with this sign's location. Commissioner Savage suggested that a monument sign with other tenants signage might be more acceptable. Mr. Borg commented that the other tenants have signage on Beaver Creek Boulevard and Finnegan's name should be addressed on this side of the building. Commissioner Evans commented that the sign was okay where it is and proposed that the satellite dishes be removed. Mr. Cassar commented that once ownership of the dishes was in his possession, he would remove them. Commissioner Karow mentioned that to eliminate the monument sign, removal of the dishes, and a sign on the building would be more beneficial. Commissioner Savage motioned to approve the sign design for Item VIII, Master Sign Program Amendment, Property Location: Tract Q, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, to include staff recommendations 1, 2 and 3, and motioned to approve a third sign like sign number two, said sign may not be hung until the satellite dishes are removed. Commissioner Struve seconded the motion. All commissioners were in favor and the motion passed unanimously. IX. Final Design — Duplex Property Location: Lot 96, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Applicant: Phil Matsen Description: Phil Matsen is proposing a duplex on this .46 -acre property. The lot is uphill and accessed off of Cld Trail Road. All bordering properties are either developed or currently under construction. This application proposes two units, both measuring approximately 2,800 square feet. Building materials for this duplex include: stucco body, horizontal and vertical board on batten siding, stone base, and asphalt shingles. The sketch design for this duplex was reviewed at the Commission's April 5'", 2005 meeting. Moved to Consent Agenda. X. Amendments to the Review Guidelines — Applicant: Town of Avc Description. The proposed resolution would amend the residential fencing requirements as well as many of the Commercial and Industrial Site Design and Building Design requirements (i.e. site access, building height, building materials and colors, roofs, etc). The proposed amendments would also add review criteria for all Commercial and Industrial design applications including 'building massing' and 'pedestrian frontages.' The proposed amendments were developed primarily by the Community Development Committee. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Memo and presented a light reflective color board to the Commissioners for review. Commissioner Struve questioned staff regarding page 2, first paragraph, the word "contemporary" needed a modifier and should be removed. All commissioners approved this change. PUBLIC HEARING OPENED Jim Buckner approached the podium for comment. He mentioned that the word contemporary should be eliminated altogether. Commissioner Evans and Commissioner Karow mentioned that contemporary would be a general design and if the word was eliminated, it gives a broad definition. Commissioner Struve questioned the holiday lighting dates and Mr. Heidemann responded that the dates were part of the lightning ordinance. Commissioner Smith mentioned a typographical error under building massing. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED Commissioner Karow brought up for discussion the section regarding Roofs and sought understanding. Commissioner discussion determined that Number 9 was designing by formula and it wouldn't always work, as it was open to interpretation. It was determined that Number 8 and Number 10 provided adequate criteria data. Commissioner Karow suggested removal of number 9 in full. Commissioner Smith motioned to approve Item X, Amendments to the Town of Avon Residential, Commercial. and Industrial Design Review Guidelines, for the Town of Avon. Commissioner Struve seconded, with the modifications to include: under Roofs, item 8 delete adequately, eliminate item #9, Item #10 the word scales to be changed to the singular scale. All commissioners were in favor and the motion passed unanimously. XI. Other Business A. Minor Project — Re -roof project Applicant Town of Avon Description: Due to an underlying asbestos application to the current Municipal Building's cedar shake roofing, the Town has determined that the application of a composite (stone coated steel) roofing product over the existing shake roof will be the safest and most cost effective alternative to a complete re -roof to the building. The proposed product is similar to a partial re -roof project that the Commission approved in February for a property on Flat Point in Wildridge. A similar product was also utilized in the re -roof of the Sunridge Apartments. Moved to Consent Agenda. XII. Adjourn Commissioner Karow motioned to adjourn; Commissioner Savage seconded the motion. All Commissioners were in favor. The meeting was adjourned at 8:05 pm. Respectfully submitted, Ruth Weiss Recording Secretary APPROVED: Chris Evans Chairman Terry Smith Secretary It" l After spending over a year on the Eagle County Comprehensive Plan Update, I am eager to work with you on the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan. We have so much information, insight, and enthusiasm to share about planning in the Eagle Valley! I had a chance to discuss the process with the Town's Community Development Staff on May 10. We concluded that it would be best to take a step back from the process, get to know each other, and share our observations on the plan, its process, and general planning philosophies. The proposed agenda for the meeting on May 17 is as follows: 1. Introductions 2. Design Workshop Observations of Plan and Process 3. Planning and Zoning Commission Observations of Plan and Process 4.

This use is proposed for a temporary basis (9 nights) beginning on the evening of June 23, 2005 and running until August 25, 2005. The lot gains access just south of the'railroad overpass off Avon Road. Included with the application are a site plan, schedule of events, construction and maintenance schedule, and a parking/traffic plan. The site is proposed with a rodeo arena surrounded by grand stands on the north and south side as well as extra chutes and pens for the livestock on the east side. Limited parking is provided on-site for: participants, food vendors, retail vendors, special event staff and volunteers, and a limited number (25) of VIP guests. The arena (approximately 150' by 200') will have fencing all the way around. This application is extremely similar to the SRU permit approved the previous two years for the Rodeo Series on the same property. In fact, the arena from last year's rodeo still remains in place. Review Criteria According to section 17.48.040 of the Avon Municipal Code, the Planning & Zoning Commission shall consider the following criteria when evaluating an application for a Special Review Use permit: 1. Whether the proposed use otherwise complies with all requirements imposed by the Town Zoning Code. This property is currently zoned as PUD. Since the Confluence site is zoned as a PUD, the zoning for this site is governed by a development agreement. The document titled "Development Agreement, Confluence and Tract C" outlines the allowed uses on this parcel of land. We are reviewing this use as a SRU. Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748-4030 Fax (970) 949.5749 The Confluence PUD, Special Review Use for Rodeo May 176, 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 3 2. Whether the proposed use is in conformance with the Town Comprehensive Plan. At the time the Comprehensive Plan was adopted, The Confluence was not included in the Town of Avon boundaries. However, there are policies and goals in the Comprehensive Plan that can be applied to this application. These policies and goals set the vision for the Town and provide a direction from which all planning decisions are made. The goals in the Comprehensive Plan help guide the community's decisions about public and private investment and development. Land Use Goal Al states that the Town should "Ensure a balanced system of land uses that maintains and enhances Avon's identity as a ....tourism and entertainment center." The rodeo will continue to provide a unique entertainment opportunity for not only residents of Avon, but for the entire valley and those visiting from out of state. Policy A3.6 states that the Town should "encourage mixed use development... where compatible with existing neighborhoods". This property is bordered by the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad to the North, the Eagle River to the South, open space to the West, and Avon Road on the East. The immediate area is comprised of vacant land and open space, with some residential land uses further to the West and East. Along with promoting mixed-use development, the Comprehensive Plan encourages a diverse, balanced economic base. Policy B3.1 provides direction to "promote development of facilities and activities which strengthen the Town's year-round tourism base, and relationship to the resort community." The rodeo provides a great opportunity to further strengthen the Town's relationship with Beaver Creek Resort. The rodeo will continue to strengthen Avon's year-round tourism base by providing an activity that all ages can enjoy. 3. Whether the proposed use is compatible with aijacent uses. Such compatibility may be expressed in appearance, architectural scale and features, site design and the control of any adverse impacts including noise, dust, odor, lighting, traffic, safety, etc. It appears that this use is compatible with the adjacent land uses. Possible impacts of this land use may include: increased traffic on Avon Road, dust, noise, odor, and parking in areas not identified as parking areas on the site plan. The traffic plan submitted includes provisions for: turning movements, parking on and off-site, police control, and security issues. Staff is confident that any adverse impacts that may be experienced with these rodeo events have been addressed by the applicants in their application. Potential impacts such as dust and odor are addressed within Exhibit C. Dust abatement will be provided the day of and during each event. In order to minimize odor concerns, "all livestock are brought in just prior to each event and hauled out immediately after each event." All vehicles will be required (by on-site security) to turn right coming out of the confluence property. Additionally, cones and signs will be provided by Beaver Creek Security to direct traffic in the appropriate directions. For additional traffic control Beaver Creek proposes to hire an Avon Police Officer to control traffic at this intersection before and during the event from 4pm-9pm each night of the event. The plans are similar to last year's rodeo series, and staff received no complaints from last year's season.

This is a downhill lot accessed off the end of Longsun Lane on a private driveway. The total floor area of the residence is 3,378 square feet with a maximum building height of 33.8'. Proposed materials include wood siding, limestone, rough sawn timber accents, asphalt shingles and cor-ten metal roofing. A sketch design for this duplex was reviewed at the Commission's February 1 at, 2005 meeting. The Commission found the application to be in general conformance with the Residential Design Guidelines and the Western Sage PUD guidelines. Discussion at the sketch design review included comments or questions on the following: o Sewer Easement; o Western Sage Design Criteria; o Retaining wall design; o Cor -ten Steel Roofing; and o Landscape Plan Background 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 are accessed from a platted access easement extending from the Longsun Lane cul-de-sac, and Lots 6-8 will be accessed from Wildridge Road East. Design Review Considerations According to the Town of Avon Residential, Commercial. and Industrial Design Review_ Guidelines, Section 7, the Commission shall consider the following items when reviewing the design of this project: Community Development (970) 748-4030 Fax (970) 949.5749 Lot 5, Western Sage PUD, Ruther Final Design May 17th, 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 4 1.

The lot is zoned for one dwelling unit not to exceed 5,000 square feet in size. • Lot Coverage: Maximum site coverage allowed for this PUD is 40%. This project is in compliance with the PUD, proposing 7.5% building lot coverage. • Setbacks: There are no standard building setbacks in this PUD; rather, a building envelope is platted for all permanent development to occur within. This project is in compliance with the platted building envelope. • Easements: There is an "Access and Utility Easement" at the entrance to the property for the access driveway. Additionally, there is a 10' Drainage and Utility Easement running along the building envelope on the eastern and southern property lines. • Building Height This design appears to be in conformance with the 35 -foot maximum allowable height requirement. The maximum building height proposed is 33.8 feet at the highest point. An Improvement Location Certificate (ILC) will be required following the framing inspection to verity compliance. • Grading The proposed grading is in compliance with Town standards. During sketch plan review the finished grading at the northeast corner of the building was unclear. The grading in this area has been revised and a drainage swale will be required during construction to channel water from the hillside around the structure. • Parking: 3 parking spaces are required for this project, and 3 spaces are proposed. There is a hammerhead turnaround area provided for vehicle movements on the site. • Snow Storage: At least 427 square feet of snow storage is required for the area of the proposed driveway (2,135 sf). The snow storage area is called out to the south of the driveway on the downhill side of the property. The plans indicate 550 square feet of storage. It appears that excess area is provided in below the driveway for removal and storage. • Landscaping. The Landscaping Plan is in conformance with the Residential Design Guidelines. The total irrigated area appears to be in compliance with the Town's 20% maximum irrigated area requirement and a rain sensor is proposed with an automatic irrigation system. A mixture of evergreen trees, aspens, and deciduous shrubs are proposed. The Landscape Plan (sheet L1.0) indicates that all disturbed areas will receive a native seed mix. In addition to the native grass seed, at least fifty (50) sagebrush and serviceberry shrubs will be planted. 2.

Commercial. and Industrial Design Review Guidelines prescribes the approval criteria the Planning and Zoning Commission shall consider when reviewing an application for design review. Pursuant to Section 7, "If the design of any project is found to comply with the purposes prescribed in these Guidelines, Regulations, .and any applicable Ordinances of the Town of Avon, and the design guidelines review criteria prescribed in Section 7 of these Regulations, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall approve the project. " The purpose of this memorandum is to provide a written summary of how the Ruther Residence, proposed to be located on Lot 5, Western Sage PUD Subdivision, complies with each of the prescribed general, sketch plan, and final design plan approval criteria prescribed in Section 7 of the Design Review Guidelines. General Approval Criteria: 1. The project complies with the Town of Avon Zoning Regulations, The proposed new single-family residence complies with the applicable provisions of the Zoning Regulations. On September 28, 2004, pursuant to Ordinance No.4-15, Series of 2004, the Avon Town Council approved a PUD amendment and adopted an approved development plan for the eight single- family lots permitted with the Western Sage PUD Subdivision. Upon adopting the approved development plan, the Town Council established the development standards for future development of each of the lots. To demonstrate compliance with the above-described criteria, a Site Plan Summary Table was created for the project. The information contained in the Site Plan Summary Table compares the required/allowed development standards to those proposed for the project. A copy of the Ruther Residence Site Plan Summary Table has been attached to the site plan for reference. 2. The project has general conformance with the Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan, and any sub -area plan which pertains, and, The Ruther Residence generally conforms to the Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan. According to the Comprehensive Plan, 1 "Goals and Policies are the foundation of the Comprehensive Plan. They are essential to both its preparation and its implementation. They set the vision for the actions to be taken by the Town in implementing the Plan, and provide direction from which all future planning decisions are made. " Upon review of the stated Goals and Policies, the majority of the statements do not appear to be applicable to single-family development which has already been approved pursuant to a PUD amendment. Upon approving the PUD amendment, the Town Council found that the amendment complied with the Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan. That said, the proposed single-family residence complies with Goal Al, Policy A1.1, Goal A3, Policy A3.1, Goal B1, Policy B1.1, Goal Cl, Policy C1.1, C1.2, Goal E2, and Goal Hl of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan. 3. There exist adequate development rights for the proposed improvements. Adequate development rights exist to allow for the construction of the Ruther Residence. The allowable development rights for the Western Sage PUD Subdivision, generally, and Lot 5, specifically, are prescribed pursuant to Ordinance No. 04-15, Series of 2004, and the approved development plan for the site. According to Ordinance No. 04-15, eight single-family homes, equal to or less than 5,000 square feet in size each, shall be permitted within the area of the Subdivision. As the proposed project is a single-family residence comprising less than 5,000 square feet of building area, the project complies with the above- described criteria. Sketch Plan Approval Criteria: A. The project conforms with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Zoning Code, and, The Ruther Residence conforms to the setback, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Zoning Code. As previously mentioned, Ordinance No. 04-15 and the approved development plan prescribe the development standards for development on Lot 5. In most instances, the development standards adopted pursuant to Ordinance No. 04-15, are the same as those prescribed in the Zoning Regulations, or more restrictive. Again, to demonstrate compliance with the above-described criteria, a Site Plan Summary Table was created for the project. The information contained in the Site Plan. Summary Table compares the required/allowed development standards to those proposed for the project. A copy of the Ruther Residence Site Plan Summary Table has been attached to the site plan for reference. B. General Conformance with sub -sections A through D of these Guidelines, the design philosophy and the design intentions listed herein. 2 The Ruther Residence conforms with Section 41 Residential Development Guidelines, Sub -sections A through D, Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines, the design philosophy and the design intentions listed within. According to Section 1, Purpose and Intent, the design philosophy of the Town of Avon is to, "...preserve and protect property values by creating aesthetic quality throughout the built environment of our community. The Town should continue to be perceived as a contemporary mountain town, complementary to the natural landscape and unbuilt environs. The Town should appear as a cohesive unit comprised of simple building forms, subdued colors, and predominantly pitched roofs. In residential areas, the relationship between buildings and the natural environment should be harmonized rather than dominating. Landscaping should blend the surrounding natural environment and the home, not hide one from the other. Form, scale, proportion, and materials should support the natural environs and reinforce those characteristics that uniquely identify a neighborhood's built environ as it relates to the Town. " Further, subsections A through B, are provided to address matters of site design, site access, site grading, parking and loading, drainage, snow removal and storage, building height, building materials and colors, exterior walls, roofs, and architectural interest, outdoor lighting, landscape design, retaining walls, and other miscellaneous items. Additionally, site specific design guidelines were drafted to further address development within the Western Sage PUD Subdivision. The additional guidelines are intended to complement the residential guidelines already adopted by the Town of Avon. The proposed project was designed with each of the prescribed designed guidelines in mind. For example, the new single-family residence was designed to blend in with the natural settings and oriented to minimize the amount of site grading and slope retention. Site access was designed with the existing topography in mind. As such, steep slopes were avoided, solar orientation was considered, and the blending of the driveway cut to the natural contours results. The parking area design exceeds the minimum requirements established for single-family development. Site grading has been minimized due to the orientation of the building on the site. All disturbed areas will be restored with native vegetation and the site grading will blend to naturally meet existing grades, as demonstrated by the proposed site grading plan. Snow storage equal to 20% of the total impermeable surface area is provided. The proposed building height does not exceed 35 feet as prohibited by the regulations and the proposed building has been oriented to take full advantage of the southerly aspect of the 3 development site. Building materials and colors were selected to complement the surrounding area and ensure that the resulting development is visually harmonious with the Town's overall appearance. 'A combination of exterior materials of native stone and wood siding were selected due to their durability and visual aesthetic. Deep eaves, overhangs and covered decks and porches are proposed to add visual interest to the residence while ensuring adequate cover and protection from the elements. A roof pitch in excess of 4:12 is proposed for the primary roof of the residence. The pitch of the roof has been designed to shed snow and water away from entrances and walks. Where the pitch is oriented towards the drive and garage entrance, gutters, downspouts and decorative snow guards are provided. With regard to landscaping, native and indigenous plants are proposed to ensure compatibility with the existing site and adaptability to the environment. An automatic drip irrigation system is proposed to provide water to the planted landscape and for ease of maintenance. The use of retaining walls has been limited to only those areas necessary. A combination of stone -veneered concrete and boulder retaining walls are proposed. Final Design Plan Approval Criteria: A. That the final design plan is in compliance with all sketch plan approval criteria and with all final design plan submittal requirements. On February 1, 2005, the applicant appeared before the Town of Avon Planning & Zoning Commission for sketch plan review of the proposed Ruther Residence. Upon preliminary review of the proposed plans, the Town staff identified several outstanding issues that were to be addressed. The issues included: 1) Proposed TOW/BOW elevations 2) Revise grade line 8512' at the northeast corner of the residence 3) Indicate "non -developable areas" on the survey 4) Provide a vicinity map on the site plan 5) Provide structural engineering wall detail for the retaining walls 6) Final design submittal can not be made until after final plat approval Each of the issues listed above as well as the final review submittal requirements have been addressed in the final submittal packet of materials. For example, on Tuesday, April 26, 2005, the Avon Town Council approved the final plat for the Western Sage PUD and construction drawings. B. The compatibility of proposed improvements with site topography, to minimize site disturbance, orient with slope, step building with slope, and minimize benching or other significant alteration of existing topography. See "Sketch Plan Approval Criteria A & B" above. 0 C. The appearance of proposed improvements as viewed from adjacent and neighboring properties and public ways, with respect to architectural style, massing, height, orientation to street, quality of materials, and colors. The design of the Ruther Residence was undertaken with the above-described criteria in mind. The residence has a traditional mountain -style of architecture. Exterior materials such as native stone, wood siding and stucco are proposed. The mass of the residence has been tucked into the hillside. The subdued colors of the residence were selected to blend well with the natural environment. Due to the siting of the building, existing views from adjacent properties are unaffected. The project complies with these criteria. D. The objective that no improvement is so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired. The design of the Ruther Residence is distinctly different enough from other improvements built in the vicinity, yet not so dissimilar that it will detract from the other improvements resulting in diminution in monetary or aesthetic values. E. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon. See "Sketch Plan Approval Criteria B " above.

The remodel includes the addition of a third story living area on top of an area that is currently a flat roof with 2' of earth and sod. The addition includes space for an additional bedroom, bathroom, and office. The roof of the addition would remain flat.

Staff Report A 0 k SIGN DESIGN AV O N cooaADo May 17a', 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Report date May 11, 2005 Sign type Building Identification Legal description Lot 73/74, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision (Comfort Inn) Zoning Town Center Address 161 West Beaver Creek Boulevard Introduction The applicant, Bruce Allen — Precision Sign Company, is proposing to replace the three existing building identification signs for Comfort Inn. This application proposes to retrofit the two building mounted signs with new pan channel signs. The panel for the freestanding sign would also be replaced with new panels. Sign construction consists of 3/16" lexan panels (freestanding sign) with translucent vinyl colors. The two building signs would be composed of aluminum and acrylic pan channel letters. All signs not part of a sign program require specific approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission. Design Review Considerations According to the Town of Avon Sign Code, Section 15.28.070, the Planning & Zoning Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing proposed designs: 1. The suitability of the improvement, including materials with which the sign is to be constructed and the site upon it is to be located. The Municipal Code encourages "quality sign materials, including anodized metal; routed or sandblasted wood, such as rough cedar or redwood; interior -lit, individual plexiglass -faced letters; or three dimensional individual letters with or without indirect lighting, are encouraged." It appears that the proposed sign construction and interior lit design is consistent with the Sign Code. 2. The nature of adjacent and neighboring improvements. The immediate area is mixed-use with residential, lodging, retail, commercial, service, and office land -uses. Sign construction varies in the area. 3. The quality of the materials to be utilized in any proposed improvement. As mentioned above, the quality of the materials appears consistent with the Sign Code. Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748.4030 Fax (970) 949-5749 N Lot 73-74, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, Comfort Inn Sign Design May 17'x, 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 3 4. The visual impact of any proposed improvement, as viewed from any adjacent or neighboring property. The proposed sign should not have any significant impact to adjacent properties. The signs would be visible from West Beaver Creek Boulevard, Greenbriar Town homes to the west, Sheraton Mtn Vista Resort to the south, and Interstate 70. The sign lighting for the freestanding sign would remain with a 250 -watt sodium vapor internal fixture. 5. The objective that no improvement will be so similar or dissimilar to other signs in the vicinity that values, monetary or aesthetic, will be impaired. It is Staff s opinion that there will be no monetary values impaired with these signs. 6. Whether the type, height, size, and/or quality of signs generally complies with the Sign Code, and are appropriate for the project. The proposed signs generally comply with the Sign Code in terms of height, size, and quality of construction. The size of the two building mounted signs is smaller than the existing signs. 7. Whether the sign is primarily oriented to vehicular or pedestrian traffic, and whether the sign is appropriate for the determined orientation. The primary orientation of the proposed signage is to automobile traffic. This orientation appears appropriate. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends conditional approval of the sign design application for Lot 73-74, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision. Recommended Motion "I move to approve the sign design application for Lot 73-74, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision ("Comfort Inn") with the following conditions: 1. Except as otherwise modified by this permit approval, all material representations made by the applicant or applicant representative(s) in this application and in public hearing(s) shall be adhered to and considered binding conditions of approval.

The proposed drive through is located on the former "chapel" site, behind the City Market grocery store. All materials and colors of the canopy would match the existing building to the south (Lot 22-A), and the Wells Fargo bank will occupy the entire first floor of the building. i A final design plan was conditionally approved by the Planning Commission at their April Wh, 2005 meeting. That decision was called up (unanimously) by the Town Council at their April 26th, 2005 meeting. Pursuant to the direction provided by Council the applicant has revised the design of the canopy and provided a revised landscape plan for the project. Design Review Considerations According to the Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines, Section 7, the Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project: 1. The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Town of Avon Zoning Code. • Allowed use: The drive-through bank use was approved at the Commission's February 15th, 2005 meeting through a Special Review Use Permit. A bank is an allowed use for this building (Building C) according to the Chapel Square PUD. • Setbacks: Once the property line between Lot 22A and Lot 22B is officially vacated and recorded with Eagle County, this project will be in compliance with the required building setbacks. • Easements: The proposed improvements would encroach upon a 10' Utility Easement that currently runs along the existing building's north side. This Easement must be officially vacated by all appropriate utility companies prior to issuance of a building permit. • Building Height. Building height remains the same. The canopy would be approximately 15 feet tall with a flat roof, or 17 feet tall with the sloped roof option.

The Chapel Square PUD has excess parking. Snow Storage: Snow storage is not demonstrated with this final design submittal and must be demonstrated at building permit. Landscaping: In order to construct the improvements two trees must be relocated. A revised landscape plan has been included in this submittal. Included in the new plan is a combination of eight (8) Norway spruce trees and varied shrubs in addition to the two relocated trees. 2. The general conformance with Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan, and any sub -area plan which pertains. This project is in general conformance with the Goals and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan. 3. Whether adequate development rights exist for the proposed improvements. There are adequate development rights for these improvements. 4. The final design plan is in compliance with all sketch plan approval criteria and with all final design plan submittal requirements. • Site Development: o Site Design: The canopy is proposed on the north side of the building. The transformer will be relocated to the area shown on the revised landscape plan. o Site Access: Access to the proposed drive up bank would be provided with a 16' wide drive and would open to three lanes of traffic near the building. Access is via an access easement, which extends from East Beaver Creek Boulevard to Chapel Place. Vehicle stacking is demonstrated with this final design submittal as requested at sketch plan review, and it appears to be in compliance with the Town Zoning Code. The Code requires at least "5 storage spaces/outside teller window or drop station" and it appears that at least 8 spaces are provided on the site plan. o Parking and Loading: As stated, seven parking spaces are eliminated with the proposed site design. All restriped parking spaces appear to be in compliance with the Guideline's standards. The Design Guidelines recommend at least two handicapped stalls, and two stalls are provided. o Easements: There is a 10' Utility Easement located where the canopy is proposed, and a transformer is located within this Utility Easement. The transformer would need to be relocated and this Utility Easement abandoned for this site design to function. Prior to issuance of a building permit, it must be evidenced that all utility companies have officially vacated this easement. o Site Grading: Finished grading must be clearly indicated on the building permit submittal. Grading in easements and setbacks is expected to be restored and revegetated to natural conditions before site construction is complete. o Drainage: Drainage from the drive through lanes must be indicated on the building permit submittal. At sketch review the 10' Drainage Easement was identified on the eastern property line, and this Easement must remain functional and unobstructed.

Jeaver Creek Subdivision, Revised Final Des May 17a', 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 3 of 5 o Snow Removal and Storage: Snow removal has not been demonstrated with this submittal. An area equal to 20% of the newly created impervious surface must be demonstrated on the site plan at building permit submittal. o Sidewalks: No new sidewalk is proposed with this design application. • Building Design: o Building Height: As stated, the existing building's height remains the same with this application. There is a twelve (12) foot clearance provided at the canopy drive through lanes. o Building Materials and Colors: The canopy itself would include three drive lanes and would match the existing building with a stucco cornice detail and cultured stone veneer base. Stucco color would match the stucco on the main building. Cultured stone would be added to the base to match the existing buildings. o Exterior Walls, Roofs, and Architectural Interest. The application proposes a flat roof and architectural interest has been included with this revised design to incorporate arches into each elevation of the canopy. This design is in full compliance with the Design Guidelines. o Outdoor Lighting: A reflective ceiling drawing is provided with this submittal and it appears that eight (8) 50 -watt Metal Halide (fully recessed) fixtures would be located underneath the canopy. Additionally, one wall mounted "full cutoff" sconce, 70 watt fixture, is proposed to be installed 10' above grade at the night depository box immediately west of the canopy. A lighting cut sheet for the proposed :anopy lights was provided to the Town and is attached.W thiscepoct_ This.light a fulty recesserl ackiincompliancewittithe Town's Outdoor Lighting Ordinance. The proposed 70 -watt fixture is indicated as 'full cutoff" but without a cut sheet this cannot be verified. This light may be too high above the night depository and with the close proximity to the canopy a light may not be necessary in this location. 5. The compatibility of proposed improvements with site topography, to minimize site disturbance, orient with slope, step building with slope, and minimize benching or other significant alteration of existing topography. Site disturbance must be contained to the site. The site has a gentle existing slope down towards the building from the vehicle entrance location. 6. The appearance of proposed improvements as viewed from adjacent and neighboring properties and public ways, with respect to architectural style, massing, height, orientation to street, quality of materials, and colors. The proposed improvements would be highly visible from East Beaver Creek Boulevard and would also be visible from Interstate 70. 7. The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired. No monetary or aesthetic values should be impaired with this design application. 8. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon.

Discussion While staff and the Commission found the previous final design submittal in compliance with the Design Guideline's minimum approval criteria, it appears the applicant has addressed the Town Council's concerns brought up at their April 26"' meeting. The revised landscape will help screen the relocated transformer, and the revised canopy design should help to incorporate the existing building's architecture into the addition. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends conditional approval of this final design submittal for a drive -up banking facility. The following issues must be addressed prior to a building permit submittal: 1. The property line between Lot 22A and Lot 22B must be vacated. 2. The 10' Utility Easement that is currently located between Lot 22A and Lot 22B must be officially vacated by all appropriate utility companies. 3. Snow storage must be demonstrated. An area equal to 20% of the newly created impervious surface must be designated on a site plan and maintained as a permanent snow storage area. 4. A construction staging plan must be submitted. The staging plan must be on separate sheet of paper and demonstrate all proposed erosion control measures and site staging for construction. 5. A light plan must be submitted and in compliance with the Town Outdoor Lighting Ordinance. This includes the submittal of light cut sheets for both fixtures. 6. Canopy construction must be consistent with previously submitted canopy wall sections. 7. Except as otherwise modified by this permit approval, all material representations made by the applicant or applicant representative(s) in this application and in public hearing(s) shall be adhered to and considered binding conditions of approval.

Revisions include the addition of arches to the drive lane canopies, and additional landscaping adjacent to the transformer. Please be aware that the addition of arches to the drive lane area has necessitated the need to increase the height of the proposed structure by approximately one foot in order to satisfy clearance requirements. It is our hope that these revisions will satisfy the concerns expressed by the Town Council, and that our project will be allowed to proceed. We appreciate your cooperation in placing this application on the agenda so quickly, and look forward to a favorable outcome.

The exterior modifications included the addition of a new drive through banking facility for Wells Fargo. The drive through bank use was approved at the February 15th, 2005 Commission meeting through a Special Review Use permit (Resolution No. 05-02). The Commission's decision was appealed by the Town Council at their April 26,11, 2005 regular meeting. According to Section 7 of the Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Guidelines, "decisions of the Planning and Zoning Commission may be appealed to the Council at the request of a majority of the Council at any time before the decision becomes final." The Council shall confirm, modify or reverse the decision of the Commission within thirty (30) days following the commencement of review, or no later than May 19th, 2005. Any decision by the Town Council which results in disapproval of the Planning and Zoning Commission shall specifically describe the reasons for disapproval. Discussion: The design plan for a drive through bank was discussed in depth at the Commission's two regular meetings (Sketch Plan and Final Design Applications). The discussion included: parking requirements, new signage, roof design, landscaping, visibility from Interstate 70, and the' general canopy design. At the Final Design review meeting, the applicant had submitted two alternative roof plans; a flat roof design and the pitched roof -design. The Commission requested an'explanation from the applicant for the desire for a flat roof and a reason the design did not included arches for the drive through lanes. The applicant stated that the flat roof design matched the existing arcade found throughout the Chapel Square development. The applicant noted that the proposed canopy would be an extension of the existing flat roof design. Memo to Town Council, May V, 2005 Page 1 of 2 Lot 22, Block 2, Chapel Square PUD, Wells Fargo Final Design Appeal The applicant also stated that he had explored the option of providing arches for each of the drive through lanes, but later realized that the roof height would need to be elevated to accommodate appropriate clearance for vehicles. He added that by elevating the roof height, the canopy would obstruct views from the existing windows located on the north elevation and the canopy would no longer be consistent, in terms of height, with the arcade located on the west elevation.

The proposed drive through would be located on the former "chapel" site, behind the City Market grocery store. All materials and colors of the canopy would match the existing building to the south (Lot 22-A), and the bank would occupy the entire first floor of the building. Staff Comments The exterior design modifications proposed appear to be in conformance with the Town of Avon Residential. Commercial. and Industrial Design Review Guidelines Access to the proposed drive up bank would be provided with a 16' wide drive and would open to three lanes of traffic near the building. Driveway grades appear to be a moderate grade, and must be less than 6%. All existing and proposed grades must be clearly indicated on the site plan to confirm driveway grades and functional drainage at final design. Additionally, the vehicle stacking must be indicated on the final design site plan to ensure at least "5 storage spaces/outside teller window or drop station." Drainage will be reviewed in detail at final design submittal and it must be demonstrated by the applicant that the 10' Utility, Drainage, and Irrigation Easement running the .length of the eastern property line remains unobstructed. Within this Easement, an 18" PVC drain pipe daylights near the proposed entrance. There is also a 10' Utility Easement located where the canopy is proposed, and a transformer is located within this Utility Easement. The transformer would need to be relocated and this Utility Easement abandoned for this site design to function. In order to construct the improvements it appears that 7 parking spaces would be removed along with some trees. A complete landscaping plan will be reviewed at final design and must comply with the Commercial Landscaping Guidelines. The canopy itself would include three drive lanes and would match the existing building with a stucco cornice detail and cultured stone veneer base. Stucco color. would match Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748-4030 Fax (970)949-5749 Lot 22-B, Block 2, BM Vells Fargo Sketch Design — Drive -up Canop.7 �ddibun February 15, 2005 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 3 the stucco on the main building. A flat roof is proposed for the canopy. Lighting cut sheets for any proposed lighting, including canopy lighting, must be submitted with the final design submittal and must be in compliance with the Town's Lighting Ordinance. Prior to, or along with the final design application, the applicant will be required to submit an application for a sign permit for any proposed signs. If the proposed signs do not comply with the master sign program for the Chapel Square PUD, the applicant would be required to amend the sign program. In brief discussion with the applicant an amendment to the sign program will be required for the future tenant's desired signage. This sketch design plan generally conforms to the Town's Commercial Design Guidelines. Staff has identified matters that need further clarification at the time of final design submittal. These items include: 1) Finished Grading to demonstrate positive drainage, particularly along the irrigation easement; 2) Vehicle stacking; 3) Vacation of the 10' Utility Easement and transformer relocation plans; 4) Landscaping removal and replacement; and 5) Proposed sign locations and design. 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. At the meeting the Commission will take no formal action on this sketch plan application. Rather, direction on the design, will be given to the applicant from Staff and the Commission to incorporate into the final design application. Full size plan sets will be available at the February 15th meeting to provide written comments and guidance to the applicant.

Commercial and Industrial Buildinq Des General Commercial Design Character In addition to the stated Design Philosophy, and General Design Compatibility, buildings should be designed to maximize energy efficiency by limiting windows and doors on the north, and taking advantage of sun exposure on the south. Additionally, building design and location should generally minimize impacts on solar and view corridors of neighboring properties Building facades should be stepped to avoid long straight walls, and entrances should be recessed. All sides of buildings should receive equal architectural treatment. Windows should be placed to provide architectural interest. Large, uninterrupted glass areas should be avoided. At the pedestrian scale, buildings should contain quality design details that are harmonious with the overall building architecture. Rooftop equipment and vents, as well as trash disposal and service areas, should be concealed with a treatment that is complementary to the building architecture. It is preferred that buildings be designed as a composition of architectural elements rather than larger single `blocks' that appear unrelated in form and context. Building Height The height of structures, unless otherwise specified in a planned unit development, shall conform to the zone district limitations stated in Title 17: Zoning Regulations. The definition of height is set forth in the `Definitions' section of these guidelines. No exceptions to the height requirements shall be made, except as specifically approved for penetrations of certain architectural projections such as flues, chimneys, cupolas, towers or other elements that may have the potential to add architectural character and variety to the skyline. Solar access is of primary importance within the town core, and commercial designs may be required to provide solar access studies showing the effect of shading on adjacent buildings and outdoor spaces (Sun studies should be prepared on a site plan of a scale not less than 1"=40' showing shadows at noon on March 21, June 21, September 21, and December 21). Building Height will be determined by utilizing the site development plan and elevations. All ridge elevations, and numeric existing and proposed grades must be labeled on the site plan to accurately determine height. Additionally, the elevation plans must show existing and proposed grades (also labeled in numeric form). Building Materials and Colors The intent of these guidelines is to provide architectural control to "ensure that the architectural design of structures and their materials and colors are visually harmonious with the town's overall appearance, with surrounding development, with natural and existing landforms, and with officially approved development plans". These guidelines should represent the minimum standard to achieve this goal, without being so cumbersome as to not allow varied high-quality design that meets this intent. Requirements: 1. The use of high quality, durable, low maintenance building materials is highly encouraged. 2. The following materials and wall finishes will not ordinarily be permitted on the exterior of any structure: asphalt siding, imitation brick, asbestos cement shingles or siding, imitation log siding or plastic. Metal siding, concrete or concrete block will be permitted only with specific approval of the Commission. Each elevation must use a minimum of two materials (i.e. stucco, siding, wood). 3. Natural or earth tones are encouraged as the dominant color with brighter colors used for accent. Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines Page 33 Adopted November 6, 2001 / Revised August 10, 2004 �1 4. All flues, flashing and other reflective materials shall be painted to match and/or appropriately contrast with adjacent materials. In some cases, physical screening may be required. 5. Electric and other utility meters shall be attached to the main structure and screened to minimize contrast with adjacent materials. Roofs Roof forms are strong determinants of architectural style. Due to climatic conditions, roof forms should be kept simple, with pitches limited to 6:12 to 12:12 for sloped roofs. Flat roofs are discouraged except for limited roof areas for the location of concealed mechanical equipment, or for architectural effect. Secondary shed -type roofs should have pitches no less than 4:12. Valleys and complex roof forms are a potential source of ice buildup and water damage, and should be used carefully and sparingly. Requirements: 1. The use of dormers (shed, peaked, eyebrow, etc.) is encouraged to help break up large expanses of roof, to enhance the usability of attic spaces, and to add interest to the roof- scape. 2. Roofing materials should be durable, weather resistant and suitable for environmental conditions encountered in this area. Colors should be natural or earth tones. Large expanses of bright, reflective materials will not be acceptable. Asphalt and fiberglass composition shingles must be of high quality and minimum weight of 300 pounds per square. Untreated shakes are not permitted. 3. In the Town Core unglazed concrete, copper, standing seam metal, or terne-coated steel are acceptable materials (Shake shingles, asphalt, and fiberglass roofs are generally discouraged). Tile should be used in a dull finish in colors. Metal roofs with a dull finish may also be considered, however colors should be muted to fit within the context. 4. All roofs, except the flat portion thereof, shall have a rise of not less than 4 -inches in 12 - inches of distance. 5. Pitched roofs shall be oriented such that excessive snow and ice does not accumulate over, or drop onto pedestrian walkways, parking areas or drives. Special protection may be required for roofs so oriented. Overhangs are required on pitched roofs, and shall extend at least one and one-half feet from the point where the wall meets the roof. Minimum overhang length is 18 inches. 6. 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. 7. Snow shedding is a major concern that must be carefully considered in the designing roofs. Building entries, garage and service doors, shop fronts, and other points of entry must be located out of the path of shedding snow. Gable fronts, covered porches, balconies, and snow retention devices are all acceptable methods of dealing with snow shedding off of sloped roofs. Landscape features such as retaining walls or raised planters may also be used to direct pedestrians out of the way of snow or ice shed areas. Where removal of snow from roofs is anticipated, mechanical and safety devices should be provided, as well as easy access to the roof. Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines Page 34 Adopted November 6, 2001 / Revised August 10, 2004 11 0 0 Interesting roof forms add character, such as those found in the Westgate PUD. Exterior Walls The form of exterior walls in the commercial areas of the Town should grow out of a balanced response between the public spaces they front and the interior functions they enclose. Walls can be broken down in scale through the use of windows, doorways, recesses and setbacks. They should be further articulated through the use of different materials, patterns, ornament, texture, and color. Walls should also respond to solar exposure in their placement. Exterior walls should attempt to enclose exterior space and to create a sense of `street'. This encourages the linkage of one building to the rest, and the continuation of urban form as opposed to individual buildings in the landscape. Requirements: 1. Stucco and synthetic stucco are suitable on upper walls of buildings. Joints, variety or color, and changes in plan should create a sense of scale on stucco walls. 2. Stone elements should be used when appropriate on the base of larger buildings, up the walls, or in elements such as chimneys or towers. Roughly squared stone set in a random pattern is preferable to more formal uses of stone. In large walls, stone should be set with larger stones at the bottom gradually diminishing to smaller stones at the top. 3. Projections such as deep eaves, overhangs, canopies, and other features that provide architectural interest are encouraged. Fenestration should be articulated on large exterior walls to break up massing. At a minimum, no single wall plane should exceed 70% of the elevation of any exposure. Breaks in the wall plane should form at least a 2 -foot step/setback. 4. Wood siding should be avoided in commercial building where it will be in contact with snow (at the base). The scale of wood siding (4", 6", 8", or larger) should be appropriate and complement the desired design of an exterior wall space. 5. Exterior elements such as porches, roof overhangs, dormers, and gables should utilize heavy timber when appropriate to create interest, give scale, and signify areas of architectural importance. Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines Page 35 Adopted November 6, 2001 / Revised August 10, 2004 6. Poured -in-place or pre -cast concrete maybe used where appropriate as column and spandrel covers. At grade or poured -in-place walls with large stone aggregate are examples that may be acceptable use of concrete in some commercial structures. Windows Windows establish patterns, rhythms, and scale on the exterior walls. They respond to uses and needs on the interior and are recognizable indications of what goes on behind them. Variety in the use of windows is encouraged within certain limits. Commercial spaces must have large areas of glass opening onto public pathways, streets, or sidewalks (suggested goal is 75% glass). Hotels and other private uses should have more limited use of glass. In all cases, large uninterrupted areas of glass are discouraged. Division of windows by mullions and muntins adds character and gives scale to the building. Requirements: 1. Aluminum, steel, painted wood, or clad wood windows are permitted in all commercial areas. Mirrored glass, snap -in muntins, glass curtain walls, and other assemblies which are clearly out of character with the Town Core are prohibited. 2. Pedestrian level windows in commercial spaces require a minimum allowable glass area of 75% of walls opening on to the ground/pedestrian level. The maximum size of individual panes of glass is not to exceed 16 square feet without special review. In general, areas of glass unbroken by wall or structure should not exceed 150 square feet. i 3. Pedestrian level windows in hotel or office spaces should be as open as possible and not less than 50% glass, unless it is a north exposure, in which case glass may be reduced to 40%. The same restrictions apply to sizes of individual panes and areas of glass unbroken by wall or structure. 4. All upper levels of commercial, hotel, and/or office area have no requirements for percentage of window to wall, but are restricted to individual panes of a maximum of 10 square feet and a maximum overall glass area of 48 square feet per window opening. /50 SP Max /n O�W'"u'Y %n WOJ! W fndovWS _165F May! in �r Doors and Entryways Public doors and entryways within the Town should be a combination of glass and metal or wood, or solid wood. All -glass or all -metal doors are discouraged. Doors should be used to establish interest, character, and variety along the public right-of-way. Where possible, gates, courtyards, staircases, and bridges should be used to connect building sand create outdoor rooms and linkages. Service doors may be hollow metal or solid wood in hollow metal frames. Main entries should not be placed on the north side of buildings unless no other alternative exists. When a main entry occurs on a north fagade it should be covered with a porch or pone cochere. Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines Page 36 Adopted November 6, 20011 Revised August 10, 2004 r-] • r� • 0 j,borw? yS Decks and Balconies and Exterior Walkways Decks and Balconies become part of the design palette used to enrich the character and create variety on the building exteriors. Where possible, balconies and decks should be located to take advantage of solar exposure, and should be used in combination with bay windows and other exterior projections. Long, linear balconies such as might appear on a common motel are discouraged in the Town. Care should also be taken in locating walkways to avoid placing them in areas which are in shadow all winter long. On the north side of buildings, sidewalks should either be covered or far enough away from the building to be out of its shadow for several hours each day. This Outdoor Lil!htin� Lighting systems will serve functional and aesthetic roles in commercial areas. These roles are: to provide security and visual safety, to serve as directional indicators for both vehicular and pedestrian traffic; to provide extended outdoor use time, particularly in pedestrian gathering areas; and to reinforce the identity and character of a project through form, color and materials of fixtures, visual light quality, and placement. Access to a clear and visible night sky is a strong value to our community. Night lighting on a site should generally be regulated to minimize the undesirable effects that `over -lighting' a site can have on a community, neighbors, and guests. At the same time, lighting is desirable for safety and aesthetic purposes. Town of Avon Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Design Review Guidelines Page 37 Adopted November 6, 2001 / Revised August 10, 2004 Requirements: 1. Lighting should be provided for all parking, drive, and walkway areas and may be required as a condition of design approval. In all commercial, retail and office parcels, lighting must be designed and arranged so as not to reflect excessive light upon abutting or adjacent properties. Floodlights are not permitted. 2. Lighting should be considered as a design feature as well as providing illumination. Area lighting shall generally be a metal halide, cut-off type fixtures with a maximum mounting height of 15 feet for walkways and 25 feet for parking areas. There shall be no exposed light source on a property, and all fixtures must utilize frosted or seeded glass. 3. Pedestrian areas should utilize low-level light sources to accent or illuminate the ground plane. These design elements should provide light for safety and aesthetic effect. By day, the physical shapes and sizes lend animation and scale to pedestrian spaces. 4. Lights which flash, move, revolve, rotate, flicker, blink, or vary in both intensity and color to emit intermittent pulsation shall be expressly prohibited as fixed light sources. This does not include holiday/seasonal lighting, which is temporary in nature for the holiday/season.

All commissioners were in favor with Commissioner Evans abstaining due to a conflict of interest. VI. Comprehensive Plan Update — [Public Hearina) Description: The Planning and Zoning Commission to reviewed section 4 of the draft Comprehensive Plan. This section includes the Subarea Planning Principles and Recommendations and Regional Goals and Policies along with associated maps. PUBLIC HEARING OPENED ?^ Pat Dawe, RNL Design, gave a presentation on the sections under review. Comments from the Commissioners included that the Avon Town Center was being addressed in the Town Center Plan. Commissioner Karow voiced concern with the 36" overhang on commercial structures and believes that it was addressed in commercial design guidelines. Mr. Dawe responded it was a good point and the built to line seemed not to be appropriate in the Comp Plan as it was too detailed. Dominic Mauriello, approached the podium, to comment that build to lines and setbacks should be included in design guidelines. Mr. Dawe felt the Comp Plan should not contain such specific comments as built to lines and setbacks.. Chris Ekrem, questioned the boundaries of the Town Center. Avon Center on the East and the park on the west, per Pat Dawe. Brian Sipes, Town Councilman, commented that build to lines are planning principles and mentioned that these were outline tools. Mr. Dawe commented that a vision statement was necessary for the Town. Commissioner Evans voiced that there is an 80 -foot height restriction within the Town Center and there is a need to distinguish what is current and what is desired. Commissioner Evans continued that perhaps the rear area of City Market could house a parking structure and the parking lot in front of Chapel Square could be transitioned into a town square/park scenario in reference to the subarea and the references to height of 1 to 3 story building. Councilman Sipes was questioned by Commissioner Evans regarding the transition of the Chapel Square parking area to an activity zone. Mr. Dawe said the comments were encouraging for designing a vision for the Town. Subarea 3 is the Confluence and Mr. Dawe commented on the necessity for allocating view corridors with the Confluence structure and the benefit of transporting over the tracks, along with preservation of the river and its banks. Commissioner Evans voiced that the Comp Plan is an indicator of the wants of the Town of Avon such as the access to Beaver Creek Village. Subarea 4 is the Avon Road Corridor. Commissioner Evans commented that this road currently separates East and West Avon and that a future vision would demonstrate the need for Avon without an East or West. Subarea 5 is Nottingham Park Area. Conversation revolved around the Municipal Building being on valuable land for Avon, area could be redeveloped as greater recreational area and Councilman Sipes voiced that in concept the Town Hall as a civic heart of the town and should remain so with its uniqueness. Larry.Brooks, Town Manager, stated that there are multiple buildings for various purposes that could be consolidated giving greater use of the parklands. Commissioners Evans and Savage voiced that an amphitheater might be more valuable to the Town than having the municipal center. Larry Brooks continued that recommendations to seize parkland for recreation might be more viable to the Town as a general statement. Subarea 6 and the parking lots would benefit from screening per Commissioner Savage. Commissioner Evans suggested that all recommendations presented need to be included when the Comp Plan is reviewed by Town Council such as the Subarea 9 being increased in square footage to accommodate residential commercial, as an example. Subarea 12 regarding the railroad corridor was discussed along with an historical discussion regarding the intergovernmental agreement relative to a corridor for transit valley wide. q� Subarea 16 is Nottingham Road residential area, north side of 170. Dominic Mauriello commented that the area that could use incentives, greater density and as a view corridor off of 170, could use redevelopment with greater architectural enhancement. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED VIII. Final Design.— Wells Fargo Drive Thru Property Location: Lot 22A, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Applicant: Greg Gastineau Description: The applicant is proposing a final design for a canopy and associated drive through lanes for a drive up banking facility. The proposed drive through would be located on the former "chapel" site, behind the City Market grocery store. All materials and colors of the canopy would match the existing building to the south (Lot 22-A), and the bank would occupy the entire first floor of the building. The sketch plan was reviewed at the Commission's February.15"', 2005. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Report. Greg Gastineau, Timberline Commercial Management, approached the podium with comments on the Staff Report. He began with Page 3, Building Design, 3rd bullet point — "Exterior Walls, Roofs, and Architectural Interest', that the statement 'there are no flat roofs on the building" is incorrect and continued that there are prominent flat roofs all on the frontage of the building and the design for the drive thru is meant to be an extension of that flat roof canopy and the reason it was proposed. Mr. Gastineau believed a sloped roof is a "failed" alternative as it would create problems with the second floor band of windows and would be inconsistent with Chapel Square. It would present problems with snow collection sliding off the canopy and creating a dangerous condition for vehicles entering or exiting the canopy. Mr. Gastineau continued by addressing the Staff Recommendations. He clarified Item 5; voiced that the transformer landscaping must meet Holy Cross requirements and they would not permit the screening of such from path of travel via painting or landscaping and revisited Item 8 regarding the sloped roof option. Commissioner Savage questioned the run off of exterior drains on flat roofs and could not see the area of runoff. Mr. Gastineau commented that the owners would prefer that it be hard piped and run into a sewer drain. Commissioner Savage revealed no problem with the flat roof and agreed with the danger a sloped roof may cause with the cars and that it is consistent with other flat roofs in the area. Commissioner Savage continued that he would like to see some language that specifically addressed the drainage issue and that drainage is not going to drain onto a the driving surface. Commissioner Smith agreed with Commissioner Savage's comments and questioned the drive thru not having "arches". Mr. Gastineau responded that the option was explored with the architect and it was determined that with varying vehicle heights, it was best to maintain a consistent height across the path of traffic. Commissioner Didier commented that the flat roof was consistent with other roofs. Mr. Gastineau interjected that the pitched roof's angle does not relate to anything within Chapel Square. Commissioner Didier continued that there were to be 15 parking places and saw only 12 on the drawing but commented that he didn't believe this was an issue. Eric Heidemann clarified some items in the conditions. He began by revealing that the intent of the landscaping condition was to be placed outside of the easement and he understood that as long as the utility company had access to one side of it, there should be no objection by said company. Commissioner Karow questioned the two trees to be removed and Mr. Gastineau responded that they would be relocated. Commissioner Karow commented that he was in agreement with Commissioner Savage's assessment. Commissioner Savage motioned for approval of Item VII, Final Design — Wells Fargo Drive Thru, Property Location: Lot 22A, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, with staff recommendations #1 through #4, eliminating recommendation #5, adding to recommendation #6 "to the extent allowable by Holy Cross", and eliminating recommendation #8 in its entirety. Commissioner Smith seconded the motion. Commissioner Karow mentioned that in his assessment of the plan, there were two different east canopy elevations being proposed and that a specific reference to the flat roof might be warranted. Commissioner Savage made an adjustment to his motion that in condition #8, the flat roof option will be utilized. Commissioner Smith seconded the revised motion. All commissioners were in favor and the motion carried unanimously. IX. Master Sign Program - Amendment Property Location: Lot 22A, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Applicant. Greg Gastineau Description: The applicant, Greg Gastineau, is proposing signs for Wells Fargo in Building C of Chapel Square. There are seven proposed signs total; two building mounted signs and five directional (freestanding) signs. The two building mounted identification signs are constructed with pan channel lettering and each measure 11' x 4'-8" (approximately 51 square feet). The directional signs are staggered on the property and are constructed with aluminum and acrylic materials. These signs stand on a 4!'x 4" aluminum support post approximately 7 feet tall. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Report to the Commission. Greg Gastineau, Timberline Commercial Management, approached the podium and commented that he was presenting the wishes of Wells Fargo Corporate. He continued that since they will be a 24,000 sq It tenant, they were requesting an amendment to sign program. Commissioner Didier voiced that there were too many signs, with his main concern being the other tenants that may leased the building in the future and sign b and c were too many. Commissioner Smith commented that the poles needed to be reduced in height and Mr. Gastineau replied that the height was relative to the amount of snow accumulation. Commissioner Smith questioned the square footage of the signs and the response of 111 square feet was too much. Per Eric Heidemann, the signage should be 72 sq feet. Commissioner Struve mentioned that the directional signs were okay, but 7 feet was too tall and the base should be rock like that shown on the building, and sign A is too large. Commissioner Savage believes it is inconsistent with the Chapel Square Sign Program. Commissioner Karow agreed with the rock base and the square footage does not comply with the sign program. Commissioner Struve motioned to deny Item IX, Master Sign Program — Amendment, Property Location: Lot 22A, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, as items 1-6 do not comply with the design criteria, Commissioner Savage seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously. X. Chateau St. Claire on-site mockup Property Location: Lot 1, Chateau St. Claire Subdivision/38390 Hwy 6 & 24 Applicant: lvins Design Group Description: The applicant requests an extension of the April 30'" deadline to prepare an on-site mock up for the Gates PUD project. The requirement for the on-site mock up was a condition of approval for pervious site design modifications. A preliminary panel design has been submitted for review by the Commission prior to construction on-site. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Memo. Mike Stornello, CSC Land, approached the podium to comment on the staff's memo. He stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission requested modifications to the original plan and he understood that he agreed to begin a collaborative meeting to design the mock up panel but not to construct it. �O Mr. Stornello would like to get Commission comment on the materials for the building tonight and provide a mock up panel by July lot. Commissioner Evans requested the panel to have a two -foot return on the left side to include the eave. Commissioner Didier commented that he wanted to review the railings and that they may be split. Commissioner Savage questioned the decision of colors and Mr. Stornello commented that the site mock up was to reflect the colors per past meeting directives. Ron Wood, CSC Land, commented on the materials anticipated being used, framing will be in September and mid November will use the materials with final items applied in December. Commissioner Smith encouraged Mr. Stornello to get the mock up materials as early as possible. Third Tuesday in June, 6/21, is the latest date for the mock up presentation to the Commission. Al. Approval of Resolution 05-05 Commercial Design Guidelines Amendments. This item was unanimously approved at the April 5°i Planning and Zoning Commission meeting after holding a public hearing. Commissioner Karow voiced concerns regarding Heading B - Building Massing, last sentence of paragraph needed definition and how one could interpret a light and airy space. Item 5, last sentence, use the word transition instead of erode. The use of mirrored windows was raised and R was prohibited under the heading of windows. Item 8 regarding roofs was to have varied roof lines and questioned the meaning and application. Commissioner Evans suggested a rewording. Commissioner Karow had difficulty with the word 'activate'. I Tambi Katieb suggested that this issue be reviewed again by staff and rewritten along with illustrations. Commissioners agreed to evaluate this Issue at the next meeting. Adjourn Commissioner Didier motioned to adjourn; Commissioner Struve seconded the motion. The meeting was adjourned at 8:50 pm. Respectfully submitted, Ruth Weiss Recording Secretary APPROVED: Chris Evans Chairman Terry Smith Secretary
