Special Review Use Application - PUBLIC HEARING Property Location: Lot 4, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision/147 Nottingham Rd Applicant. Dennis Pappas / Owner. Randy Massey Description: The applicant is seeking a Special Review Use (SRU) application for an automotive repair land -use on Nottingham Road. The property is located within the Neighborhood Commercial (NC) zone district, and accordingly "automobile service and repair' is allowed only with a SRU permit approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Report to the commission. Commissioner Green questioned the uses that were incompatible and was referenced to the Comprehensive Plan, page 25 under Neighborhood Commercial definition, by Eric Heidemann. Commissioner Evans referenced the parking summary as it pertains to the designation of 5 spaces for the Dollar Rental Company. Mr. Heidemann voiced that code requires 3 spaces per 1000 sq ft of gross floor area and proceeded to elaborate on the spaces and their locations. OPEN PUBLIC HEARING Dennis Pappas, Chief Operations Officer for L & H, approached the podium to address this application and continued to explain the proposed usage of the space as light maintenance and do estimates with extensive work shipped out for repair. He continued that he was in disagreement with the staff report. He stated that the building on the property was designed for automotive. Randy Massey, owner, explained the company's use of the facility. Mr. Pappas responded that 8 employees would be on site with a car wash in answer to Commissioner Foster's prior question. Commissioner Evans asked if either would be on site to handle operations. Mr. Massey would be in daily per Mr. Pappas and Mr. Pappas would be in three times a week. Commissioner Evans stated that no damaged cars would be housed outside and asked who will be enforcing it. Mr. Massey responded that a local resident has been hired to maintain the facility and its contents. Commissioner Evans questioned the comment that "their place is a showplace" with the response that it would be kept clean and maintained, pleasant to look at. Commissioner Struve asked for this item to be tabled for commissioner input. No members of public addressed the issue. CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING Commissioner Evans voiced that the applicant needs to define and commit to the building's use, and commented that the building was very use specific and the commission may make suggestions but the applicant was responsible for presenting the commission with their ideas of the project. Commissioner Struve commented to the applicant that the building would be used for the highest use possible for the Town of Avon with no large trucks on site, no for sale vehicles, signage, landscaping and screening. Commissioner Goulding commented on the aesthetics of building, landscaping for softness and drainage, policing of activities proposed by applicant, and $4000 damage or over would need transport truck and how was that truck used? Commissioner Foster commented on exterior 1 aesthetics, cedar fence indicated a junk shop, and a visual of how it would be a showcase. Commissioner Smith commented that it has been a junkyard for a long time and queried how would the screening look. Commissioner Lane agreed with Commissioner Smith on the screening and was concerned with the look in the community. Commissioner Green agreed with his fellow commissioners comments, how was the environmental situation of fluids and such being dealt with, and the site was the entry to Avon and the architectural was important to the commission. Commissioner Evans remarked that the site could embellish the building. Commissioner Struve motioned to table Item VI, Special Review Use Application - PUBLIC HEARING Property Location: Lot 4, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision/147 Nottingham Rd, with Commissioner Foster seconding the motion. All commissioners were in favor and the motion to table was approved unanimously. VIII. Mockup Design - Gates on Beaver Creek - CONTINUED Property Location: Lot 1, Chateau St. Claire Subdivision / 38374 Highways 6 & 24 Applicant: Steven Heinen, Ivins Design Group Description: This is to discuss the on-site mockup. Action is required on the mockup design panel, and approval of this mockup must take place prior to May 31, 2006 in order for the property to remain in compliance with its current Development Agreement. This item was moved to the Consent Agenda. IX. Minor Project - ERWSD Building - CONTINUED Property Location: Tract N, Block 3, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Applicant/Owner: Ronald Siebert, Eagle River Water and Sanitation District Description: Design review for a new building at the Eagle River Water and Sanitation building fronting the Eagle River between the bike path and the railroad tracks. The building is required for UV water treatment and would have a 28' x 44' footprint and is located on the south side of the main treatment facility. The building would have cedar sided walls and a metal roof. Matt Pielsticker presented the staff report. Tim Reitz, ERWSD, approached the podium to address commissioner concerns of this application. He presented some photos to the commission to show the trees and berms proposed to hide the site. Commissioner Struve voiced concern regarding the bike path, lack of trim on the roof, which makes it look industrial, and would prefer more bushes and trees. Commissioner Goulding was concerned with light from the top of the building's skylights. Mr. Reitz responded that the facility typically functions only during the day. Commissioner Foster remarked that landscaping would make it visually appealing. Commissioner Smith agreed with the landscaping. Commissioner Lane agreed Commissioner Green that architectural continuity would be ideal but landscaping plan would be appropriate. Commissioner Evans agreed with his fellow commissioners. Commissioner Green moved to table Item IX, Minor Project - ERWSD Building, Property Location: Tract N, Block 3, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, until a landscape plan was back from the applicant. Commissioner Goulding seconded the tabling and all commissioners were in favor. X. Sketch Design Plans - Residential A. Property Location: Lot 47, Block 4, Wildridge / 5141 Longsun Lane - CONTINUED Applicant., Rick Dominick, Aker Architects/ Owner. • Tanavon Corporation Description: Sketch design review for duplex on the downhill side of Longsun Lane. The building would be comprised mainly of stucco and wood and is situated on a steep lot. This lot was tabled from the Commission's April 4, 2006 meeting. Matt Pielsticker presented to the commission the staff report. V Kirk Aker and Rick Dominic, Aker Architects, approached the podium for review of the application. Mr. Aker began with the steepness of the slope and the driveway reconfiguration. Commissioner Struve requested discussion of the roof materials. Mr. Aker responded that shingles could now be used instead of metal since the roff pitch has been modified. Commissioner Foster discussed the landscaping in the driveway and snowmelt. Commissioner Goulding addressed parking maneuverability and backing out not into the roadway, north elevation garage and entry elements continued to look mirrored. Commissioner Smith suggested a model. Commissioner Evans commented on the north elevation with some covered roof form over the stairs, perhaps cross bracing, anchored visually. Commissioner Struve mentioned the metal was fine as accents pieces and landscaping was key, mirrored images need to be changed and the two front doors shouldn't look so similar. B. Property Location: Lot 3, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision Applicant/Owner.George ("Tripp") Plavec Description: Design review for a new duplex structure on Wildridge Road East in the Wildridge Subdivision. Proposed materials include stucco, bev lap siding, stone, and heavy timbers. The structure would total approximately 8,300 square feet, with each unit measuring approximately 4,100 square feet. Matt Pielsticker presented the staff report. George ("Tripp") Plavec, owner, approached the podium to discuss the project, showed the commissioners a rendering with greater space on the front elevation, discussed the setbacks and the spacing away, driveway maneuverability has 29 feet, discussed the size of the garage, back slope was pretty buried and was concerned with future maintenance, two stucco colors are being proposed and siding could be an option if required. Commissioner review discussed view from each side, appearance of the mirrored image, driveway maneuverability, landscaping was important; tandem parking was a concern, and a change of dormer from one side to another. C. Property Location: Lot 24, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision / Coyote Ridge Applicant: Andrew Abraham / Owner. • Mike Farr Description: Andrew Abraham is proposing a single-family home on this Coyote Ridge property in Block 4 of the Wildridge PUD. The home is large with approximately 9,000 square feet of livable space with 7 indoor garage parking spaces. Matt Pielsticker presented the Staff Report to the Commissioners. Andrew Abraham, architect, approached the podium to discuss the application and began that he lowered the project to accommodate neighboring view corridors. Mr. John Sweedem, neighboring property owner, was concerned with the 18 foot above grade that blocks his view corridor and would appreciate 6 feet lower. Jim Wiley, 5586 Coyote Ridge, commented on the interesting design and was concerned with the substantial sprawl of the project. Commissioner review began with Commissioner Evans asking of the ridge height with the response of 35 feet. Commissioner Green questioned the materials being proposed, stucco may not be appropriate for this project and a 35 -foot garage structure may not be necessary and could be mitigated. Commissioner Struve remarked on this the architecture was interesting, with the free standing garage, there were too many buildings on site. Commissioners concurred that landscaping would be an important aspect, to review eliminating the bridge element and create a single structure, perhaps by pulling the house closer to the bam. XI. Final Design Plan - Residential A. Property Location: Lot 2, Dry Creek Subdivision (A Resubdivision of Lot 44, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision) / 2510B Old Trail Road Applicant., Michael Sanner, Architect /Owner: Trent Hubbard Description: The applicant is submitting a final design plan for a single-family residence in the Dry Creek PUD on Old Trail Road.

Sketch Designs - Commercial - CONTINUED A. Confluence - Riverfront Subdivision Hotel Building Property Location: Confluence/95 Avon Road Applicant: East West Partners / Owner. East West Partners Description: The applicant, East West Partners Inc., is proposing a Sketch Design application for the Westin Riverfront Resort and Spa. The proposed hotel building includes a hotel programmed as a condo -tel, a spa facility, meeting space, restaurant, retail, and professional offices. This item is continued from the Commission's March 7, 2006 meeting. Commissioners Evans and Lane have reclused themselves from this agenda item due to conflict of interest. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Report and discussed the material and structural changes to the project. Commissioner Struve questioned the shading and the December 21°' presentation and Staff addressed the applicant to respond. The response was that their architectural firm would review it. Andy Gunion, East West Partners, began his presentation with historical data of the project in order to bring the newly appointed commissioners up to date. Andy White took over the presentation and discussed the new elevations, the darkening of the exterior colors, less glass by moving the showers in the units, and changing the window design, the upper most floors were no longer iron clad but changed to stucco. The south elevation had changed by color, extension of the shed dormer by 20 feet and the change to the top story material. Conversation arose regarding the changes to the exterior color and what had prompted said changes. Mr. White continued by presenting each floor plate of the structure and voiced that parking was appropriately adjusted to the changes in unit numbers. B. Confluence - Riverfront Lodge Building Property Location: Confluence/95 Avon Road Applicant: Zehren & Associates / Owner., East West Partners Description: The applicant is proposing a Sketch Design application for the Riverfront Lodge. The proposed building is comprised of approximately 75 whole ownership units and has a maximum building height of approximately 95'. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Report to the Commission. Jim 7, East West Partners, presented the project and began that there are 75 whole ownership condominiums for sale with two and three bedroom units primarily and larger units on the top floor. There would be a small check-in and lobby area, 2 or 3 hot tubs and the amenities at the Westin would be a the owner's disposal. Exterior materials would include duplication materials from the Westin with attention to consistency but not duplication. This building was phased to be erected after hotel completion. Tim Losa, Zehren and Associates, approached the podium to continue the discussion of the project and present preliminary details. Commissioner Green began comments that the intent of the guidelines was not being met, a color rendering would be beneficial, articulation of the fagade was necessary, needed more interest in the structure, would like repetitiveness eliminated, entry seemed disproportionate and needed attention, and the hot tub area could use landscape element. Commissioner Foster commented that dormers don't solve issue of a long plane, needed image of retaining walls to determine if trees should be saved, and the hot tub needed to be addressed. Commissioner Struve voiced that the challenge was to be complimentary but not the same, walls between the bike path and retaining walls cannot be an unwelcome look in the project, save the tree, use pavers and not stamped concrete. Commissioner Goulding stated that the trees and spa area are codependent on what the best look for the tubs location can be; elevations show no soft corners as desired in the guidelines, stone along the decks and patios needs balance, east exterior elevation stone foundation stops at the window bottom, and to consider rich colors and texture. Commissioner Smith voiced that the entryway was blah, and a better illustration would be encouraged XII. Other Business A. Update of Various Projects Tambi Katieb, Director of Community Development, updated the commission on the Town Center Study looking at new development and infill development, what was possible and what were the goals, and this final portion was financial and would be presented to council on Tuesday, June 13'", at 2:30 pm. for two hours. Calor renderings should be provided to the commissioners in the packets and a conceptual landscaping plan provided at sketch design review. XIII. Adjourn Commissioner Green motioned to adjourn. All Commissioners were in favor. The meeting was adjourned at approximately 9:45 pm.

ADOPTED THIS 6th DAY OF JUNE, 2006 Signed: Attest: Date: Chair Date: Secretary F.•V'lanning & Toning CommissionVtesolullonA2006\Res 06-12 L65C B2 WR child care SRU Syr doc Staff Report 7vi SPECIAL REVIEW USE C O L O R A D O June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Report date May 29, 2006 Project type Outdoor Storage Use (PUBLIC HEARING) Legal description Lot 11, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision Zoning Industrial Commercial (IC) Address 451 Metcalf Road Introduction The applicant, Jeffrey Reddy (Reddy and Reddy Architects), is requesting a Special Review Use (SRU) Permit to allow 'outdoor storage' of materials at this Metcalf Road property. The lot was recently bought by Quest Communications for a contractor office. According to the Avon Municipal Code "Industrial, construction and wholesale offices" are uses by right in the IC zone district, and therefore the new contractor office is allowed under current zoning. However, the new Quest operation would require outside storage of equipment and parts at this location and "outside storage areas" are only allowed by way of a SRU permit. The subject property has long been used for automotive repair work, which operated under a SRU permit. This property is approximately 1 acre and is located on the west side of Metcalf Road below the Barrancas condominiums. The existing building includes service bays and an upstairs office floor plan. All of the junk vehicles have been removed from the property and the property currently sits vacant today. The property is zoned Industrial Commercial (IC), which is intended to "provide sites for light industrial and manufacturing uses, wholesale outlets, warehousing, offices and storage facilities." Because the proposed storage use in not included in the list of allowed uses (Exhibit A), the applicant is requesting a SRU under the category of "outdoor storage." The existing land use and zoning for the surrounding properties are as follows: • North: Open Space immediately north, and Barrancas residential Planned Unit Development (PUD) further up the road to the north. • West: Platted Open Space, Landscaping, and Drainage (OLD) zoning. Tam of Avon Comnwity Development (970) 7484030 Fax (970) 949.5749 Lot 11, Block I, Benchmark at Beaver Creek - Quest Outdoor Storage SRU June 6, 2006, Planning & Zoning Commission meeting 2of5 • South: D'Agostino & Beaver Creek Automotive buildings. Industrial &. Commercial (IC) Zoning. • East: Metcalf Rd Right -of -Way. This application is a noticed public hearing with written notice provided to property owners within 300' of the subject property. To date staff has been in contact with owners of Lot 13, Block 1, Wildridge property but have received no public comment regarding the applicant's request. ' Criteria for Review 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 zoning code. This application appears to be in compliance with all other requirements of the Zoning Code. Adequate parking is provided on-site for employees, and no public parking is needed at this location. Since there will be a building permit required for interior building modifications, a complete lighting plan and landscape plan must accompany this tenant finish application in order to ensure compliance with the Outdoor Lighting Ordinance and landscaping standards from the Design Review Guidelines. 2. Whether the proposed use is in conformance with the Town Comprehensive Plan. The property is located in District 11, the Metcalf Road District and is designated with a 'Medium' priority. The Comprehensive Plan recognizes this area as Avon's only industrial center and puts emphasis on parking, access, and screening parking and storage areas. The Future Land Use map designates most of Metcalf Road as continuing with a'Light Industrial' land -use pattern. And while many of the planning principles in the Comprehensive Plan relate to development and redevelopment along the 1-70 corridor, the following principles could be applied to this application: • "Require development that minimizes significant re -grading, and provides for proper on-site parking and access." Staff Response: No grading is required for this new business to operate and on- site parking is provided. The existing access is adequate for the proposed use. "Require development and encourage existing development to add architectural or landscape screening of storage areas, HVAC equipment, loading docks, and trash containers." Staff Response: Staff is recommending that a new fence be installed on this property in order to help screen all storage areas and additional landscaping be incorporated into the fence design with submittal of a design review application. Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748-4030 Fax (970) 949-5749 Lot 11, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek- Quest Outdoor Storage SRU June 6, 2006, Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 3 of 5' There are also goals and policies from the Comprehensive Plan which seem relevant to this application. Following are some goals and policies which can be used to evaluate this application. • Policy C.5.1 - "Require that service commercial and light industrial uses, including warehousing and light manufacturing include effective vehicular access and circulation .... and encourage effective screening from adjacent uses and public ways." Staff Response: This is an excellent opportunity to encourage screening from neighboring uses and the Metcalf Road right-of-way. There was an attempt made in the past to screen this property with a fence and some limited landscaping around the fence in the northeast comer of the property. The site plan shows the location of the existing fence and trees that were planted. • Goad C.5 - "Encourage redevelopment of existing light industrial and manufacturing uses that conform to existing plans and design standards." Staff Response: A contractor office would conform to the existing zoning and the 'future land use' map from the Comprehensive Plan. 3. Whether the proposed use is compatible with adjacent 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. The proposed outdoor storage use should be compatible with adjacent uses if adequately screened. Please see the attached photographs of typical equipment that would be stored on the site. The attached site plan drawing provided by the applicant indicates that items may be stored on the majority of the property. The intensity of this Quest operation is less than the previous land -use and no adverse impacts such as dust, odor, or safety issues should be experienced. The appearance of the property should be looked at in detail. Particularly the existing wood fence that has been used to help screen junk vehicles in the past and its current state of disrepair. The property would benefit from a new fence and additional landscaping incorporated into the fence design to help the visual appearance of outdoor storage. No changes to 'site design' are being proposed. According to the applicant, all deliveries would arrive by a 45' straight body truck and all turning movements would occur on site. The provided site plan indicates that the turnaround area for these deliveries would take place partially in the 'site storage' and parking areas. Since these deliveries are somewhat limited (estimated at one per month in winter, and two per month in summer months) impacts to neighboring properties that share access with Metcalf Road should be negligible. Less traffic should be generated with Quest as compared with the previous auto repair operations. Public Benefit Criteria According the Avon Municipal Code section 17.28.085, the granting of this special review use must provide evidence of substantial compliance with the public purpose Town of Avon Community Development (970) 7484030 Fax (970) 9495749 Lot 11, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek - Quest Outdoor Storage SRU June 6, 2006, Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 4 of 5 provisions as outlined below. Please find the applicants response to this review criteria attached for your review. A. The application demonstrates a public purpose which the current zoning entitlements cannot achieve. This application is technically required by the Zoning Code since 'outdoor storage' is a SRU use only. Staff does not feel that this criteria is relevant for review since the public benefit provisions are intended for rezoning or PUD zoning applications, and this application presents itself as more of a design oriented application instead of a use application. B. Approval of the zoning application provides long term economic, cultural or social community benefits that are equal to or greater than potential adverse impacts as a result of the changed zoning rights. Adverse impacts should be negated if a new fence and additional landscaping were required to improve the properties appearance. Please see staffs recommended conditions of approval. C. The flexibility afforded in approval of the zoning application will result in better siting of the development, preserving valued environmental and cultural resources, and increasing the amount of public benefit consistent with the community master plan documents. No site plan changes are proposed with this application. The entrance drive and building remain in their current locations. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends conditional approval of the proposed SRU based on the required review criteria. Recommended Motion "I move to approve Resolution 06-11 thereby conditionally approving the request for outdoor storage at the new Quest facility located on Lot 11, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision."

RECEIVED MAY 3 12006 Community Development Town District Planning Principles,, rA, (Ii, ", Pi -),'ty r�,5li fCt_ Screening Steep Slopes ® Vehicular and Pedestrian Crossing District 11: Metcalf Road District lerpass The Metcalf Road District is the Town's only industrial center. It provides light industrial and commercial service uses as well as accessory residential development. During any redevelopment effort, long-term issues such as parking and access should be addressed. Existing light industrial uses on Nottingham and Metcalf Roads are intensely developed, with large buildings on small sites; generally with insufficient landscaping; inadequate access; and.unscreened parking, storage, and trash containers. The area's high visibility from I-70 makes it important to the Town's image. Concerns over traffic safety issues as well as the area's generally poor aesthetic characteristics are perceived as negatively affecting the image of the Wildridge and Wildwood residential developments located nearby. Yet, it is also recognized that these businesses provide an important component to Avon's overall economic health. Opportunities should be encouraged to develop live/work developments that allow for light manufacture/industrial uses that do not possess significant conflicts with other surrounding land uses. ;Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan Page 89 R Town District Planning Principles ry that acts Planning Principles: • Accommodate limitedlaccessory residential development that supports primary industriallemployment land uses. • Develop a pedestrian connection linking West Beaver Creek Boulevard to Nottingham Road. • Coordinate with CDOT to introduce trees on uphill slopes in the I-70 right -0f -way and along Metcalf Road to partially screen buildings,and other accessory uses. • Require development that minimizes significant re -grading, and provides for proper on-site, parking andaccess. • Require development and encourage existing development to add architectural or: landscape screening of storage areas, HVAC equipment, loading dock's, and trash containers. • site buildings to maximize sun exposure, protect views, and break up building bulk. • In the event•of a major redevelopment of this area, add traffic lanes on Metcalf Road to accommodate truck traffic.

Based on the Residential Design Guidelines, there are a set of critieria a fence must meet in order to qualify for staff approval. Since the proposed fence does not demonstrate compliance with some of the mandatory review criteria, this fence can only be reviewed and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Design Review Considerations According to the Commission's Procedures, Rules & Regulations, Section 4.10, the Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project: 1. Fence material shall be wood and no more than four feet in height The fence is wood and no more than four feet in height. 2. Split rail design with no more than 2 horizontal 'rails.' The fence has 3 horizontal rounded wood 'rails', therefore not in compliance with this criteria. 3. Does not delineate property lines. The proposed fence would delineate a portion of the southern property line bordering Lot 44 as indicated by the site plan. 4. Fenced area is less than 2,000 square feet. The total fenced area would be approximately 7% of the property, or 2,700 square feet. The fence exceeds the maximum area criteria. 5. Wildlife migration is not negatively affected with the proposed fence design.

If part of a multi -family project approval must be received from the association, and the fence design must be integrated with the overall landscape design of the property. Not applicable. 7. If located on a duplex property, written approval must be received from adjoining property owner and the fence design must be integrated with the overall landscape design. Not applicable. Discussion Based solely on the 5 applicable design review criteria, staff must recommend denial of this fence application since the fence has more than two horizontal rails (Criteria 2), delineates 105' of the southern property line (Criteria 3), and contains an area over 2,000 square feet (Criteria 4). The fence does appear to generally comply with the intent of the fence criteria, however, does not meet the strict and literal interpretation of the criteria and therefore staff is recommending denial. Recommended Motion "I move to deny this fence application for Lot 45, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision due to conflicts with criteria 2, 3, & 4."

I* Proposal: { The owner's of Lot 45, Block 4, Wildridge seek to construct a wood fence on a portion of their property. Included herein are various exhibits demonstrating the type of fence to be constructed, and some of the needs for it. The location would compliment the existing decks, and follow the bottom of the bank in such a manner as the existing sage brush and service bevy bushes would obstruct most of it from view. It would barely be visible from the surrounding properties and neighborhood (see Exhibit A).This fence would be constructed four feet high, with round wood rails, the inside of which would be lined with a non -glare wire mesh (see Exhibit B). Background: Living at this address are two young male Dahnations (see Exhibit Q. They are very well-mannered dogs, but they are also very outgoing. Occasionally they manage to escape from the yard and visit the neighborhood. Their owners have tried the best invisible wire fence available, but it was unsuccessful in restraining them. The main problem is their desire to visit with the local Mule Deer and Rabbits that come to pass through their yard on a regular basis (see Exhibits D and E). Recently, they escaped when a gate had been left ajar, and were spotted pursuing after some deer. They were quickly retrieved, but still a complaint was made to the Avon Police Department. As a result of this infraction, Officer Arndt has asked that they be restrained upon their property. Furthermore, living at the adjoining property to the south is the local neighborhood bully, "Otter" (see Exhibit F). And although Otter has an invisible fence around his yard, it rarely deters him from brash attacks onto our property and harassing C- our dogs and our children (not to mention taking care of his own personal matters as well). Thus, this application. Conclusion: In order to abide by the wishes of Officer Arndt and comply with the laws of the Town of Avon, and to protect our dogs and children from harm, we are applying to construct said fence. It will cover less than 7% of the property. It will barely be visible from anywhere else, and will be attractive and effective in accomplishing the desired goals. Any other means of accomplishing these goals would not suffice (see Exhibit G). Furthermore, it would enhance the landscaping and overall appearance of the yard. This application is consistent with other fences constructed in Wildridge and Avon, and deserves approval.

As young adult male balmations, their desire to pursue life as dogs has gotten them into some trouble in the neighborhood. Sam has tried an electric fence with no results on Jackson. In my experience, although electric fences work well for a majority of dogs, there are those that will "take the shock" in order to pursue to object of their desires, which for Jackson is the deer and rabbits that sit in his line of sight. I have also seen animals whose nervous system "wiring" has been adversely affected by "just turning it up° to get a more profound shock. Although fences are limited in the Wildridge area, I fee] that this is the best option far these two dogs. An aesthetically pleasing structure will help to keep them confined to their yard, while not distracting from the beauty that is that development. If I can be of any further assistance in resolving this problem, please feel free to contact me at any time.

The fences would be six feet high with alternating rough cut cedar 4" x 6" pickets. The Residential Design Guidelines contain a set of criteria that all fence applications must meet in order to qualify for staff approval. A site plan is attached for review as well as fence details and a photocopy from the Eaglebend subdivision plat which shows the homes relationships to property lines. Currently, there is a cedar fence located along the rear property lines that screens the railroad tracks. Because this application fails to meet the criteria for residential fences, specific approval from the Commission is required. Design Review Considerations According to the Commission's Procedures, Rules & Regulations, Section 4.10, the Commission shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project: 1. Fence material shall be wood and no more than four feet in height The fence is wood and six feet in height, therefore not in compliance with this criteria. 2.

The applicant has submitted two alternative colors (both green), with one labeled their preferred color. The modifications would not affect the existing signage for the commercial tenants along the first level, nor would it change any of the existing lighting beneath the canopies. In addition to the proposed modifications, the applicant has also performed building maintenance, which included a complete re -painting of the building (same off-white color). The repainting of the building is permitted as general building maintenance and not part of this minor project application. Attached to the report is a current photo of the building, and photo renderings of the two proposed colors. According to the Commercial Design Guidelines, the minimum design considerations in this application are the quality or dyrability of the canvas material as well as the Light Reflective Value (LRV) of the proposed color. 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. Staff has asked the applicant to provide a sample of the canvas material during Commission review and a brief description of it's durably and tolerance to expected UV exposure. Staff would also request the applicant demonstrate compliance with the minimum LRV standard of 60%O. Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748-4030 Fax (970) 949-5749 Design Approval Criteria According to Section 7 from the Residential. Commercial. and Industrial Design Guidelines, the Commission shall review all design plans utilizing specific Design Standards, and by using the following general criteria: 1. The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Town of Avon Zoning Code. The Minor Project application does not include any changes to the use of the land or modifications to the building structure. Currently, the development is in compliance with all of the requirements imposed by the Town of Avon Municipal Code. 2. The general conformance with Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan, and any sub -area plan which pertains. The subject property is located within the District 3 planning area. This area is considered a high priority district with heavy emphasis on mixed-use development and pedestrian orientation. The planning principles within this district encourage the use of architectural detailing on the ground level in the form of display windows, appropriate lighting, and other pedestrian amenities. As presented, the proposed material change would not detract form the existing canvas detailing along the ground level. 3. Whether adequate improvements. Not applicable. development rights exist for the proposed 4. The Design plan is in general conformance with Sub -Sections A through D of the Residential. Commercial. and Industrial Design Guidelines. A. Site Development: B. Building Design: The guidelines require that all colors be earth tone in color and shall blend in with the natural setting. Colors shall not exceed a light -reflective value (LRV) of 60 percent and this application appears to comply with the Guidelines. The applicant has indicated that the LRV of the proposed alternatives ranged form 7-13%, which is well with the acceptability range. Staff has asked the applicant to verify these levels during Commission review The existing building color, however, does not appear to meet this standard. Understanding that the applicant is within their right to repaint their building the same color without design approval, staff is recommending that the next re -painting of the building go through a formal design review process in order to eliminate the non -conforming nature of the building color. C. Landscaping: There is no landscaping proposed with the design modification. .

Amendment. Title 15. Avon Municipal Code, is amended by the addition of a new Chapter 15.30 as follows: Chapter 15.30 15.30.010 Intent and Purpose 15.30.020 Definitions 15.30.030 Applicability 15.30.040 General Outdoor Lighting Standards 15.30.050 Lighting Plan 15.30.060 Violations 15.30.070 Figures and Diagrams 15.30.010 Intent and Purpose. The purpose of this ordinance is to reduce offensive lighting sources and reduce light trespass beyond property lines, including unnecessary upward lighting. The Town of Avon is experiencing a significant increase in the use of exterior illumination. Town residents and guests value small town character and the qualities associated with this character, including the ability to view the stars against a dark sky. They recognize that inappropriate and poorly designed or installed outdoor lighting causes unsafe and unpleasant conditions, and limits their ability to enjoy the nighttime sky. This Chapter is intended to help maintain the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Avon through the regulation of exterior lighting in order to: A. Promote adequate light for safety and security; B. Prevent inappropriate and poorly designed or installed outdoor lighting; C. Reduce glare; D. Reduce nighttime light pollution and to protect and reclaim the ability to view the night sky by restricting the unnecessary upward projection of light; E. Phase out existing non -conforming fixtures that violate this chapter, including those owned by the Town; and In order to determine the effectiveness of the ordinance, staff shall develop and implement the "Avon Dark Sky Preservation Initiative" program to measure observable lumen counts at fixed points on the valley floor. Baseline monitoring shall take place on an annual basis, and five (5) years after the implementation of this ordinance, the findings shall be presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Town Council to determine whether or not the intent and goals of this chapter are being satisfied. 15.3o. 020 Definitions. Exterior Lighting. Temporary or permanent lighting that is installed, located, or used in such a manner to cause light rays to shine outdoors. Luminaires that are indoors that are intended to light something outside are considered exterior lighting. Fixture Height. The vertical distance from the ground directly below the centerline of the fixture to the lowest direct light emitting part of the fixture. Full cut-off fixture. A fixture designed and installed where no direct light (as opposed to scattered light) is emitted at or above a horizontal plane running through the lowest point on the fixture. Fully shielded. The luminaire incorporates a solid opaque barrier (the shield), which permits no light to escape through the barrier. Glare. Stray, unshielded (including reflected) light striking the eye that may result in (a) nuisance or annoyance glare such as light shining into a window; (b) discomfort glare such as bright light causing squinting of the eyes; (c) disabling glare such as bright light reducing the ability of the eyes to see into shadows or (d) reduction of visual performance. Holiday (Seasonal) Lighting. Temporary festive lighting intended to celebrate the winter season and the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's holidays. Light Pollution. Any manmade light that diminishes the ability to view the night sky. Light Source. The source of the light emitted by the fixture. Also referred to as 'bulb.' Light Trespass. Light falling on the property of another or the public right-of-way when it is not required to do so. swa U^ Usb W"PM tak Nw Controlled source and good aiming prevent light trespass Light trespass from uncontrolled source t 5.30.030 Applicability. The lighting standards of this Chapter shall be applicable to all exterior lighting within the Town of Avon.

All temporary emergency lighting needed by the Fire and Police Departments, or other emergency agencies. 4. Floodlights with external shielding can be deflected up to twenty five (25) degrees from a vertical plane as measured through the central axis of the light beam from the luminaire, only if the luminaire does not cause glare or light to shine on adjacent property or public rights-of-way. Compliant floodlight angle rt - it 5. Uplighting for flags, address markers, trees, architectural features, and low - voltage landscape lighting provided the luminaire is located, aimed, and shielded so that direct illumination is focused exclusively on the object and away from adjoining properties and the public street right-of-way. Architectural features may be illuminated by uplighting, provided that the light is effectively contained by the structure. In all cases, uplighting must not cause glare or light trespass. 6. Luminaires (light fixtures) that have a maximum output of one thousand lumens per future (equal to one sixty [60] watt incandescent light), regardless of the number of lamps, provided: a. The bulb of the future is not visible; and b. The fixture utilizes frosted, opalescent, clear, or iridescent glass; and c. The fixture has an opaque top or is under an opaque portion of the building structure; and d. If the fixture utilizes clear glass, the output of the future must be shielded by the architecture of the structure; and e. All fixtures must not cause glare or light trespass beyond the property. 7. Temporary (2 days or less) high intensity discharge floodlighting may be used for sports lighting and Town sponsored events provided that the lighting be turned off no later than one hour after the event is concluded.

The sign would be the same size and design as the current "Self Storage" sign. The proposed sign would be internally illuminated with channel letters and would be positioned vertically like the current sign orientation. Attached to this report is a picture showing the existing sign and a visual representation of the new proposed sign. The Sign Code requires that the Planning and Zoning Commission review all signs not part of an already approved Master Sign Program. Design Review Considerations According to the Town of Avon Sign Code, Section 15.28.070, the Planning & Zoning Commission shall consider the following items when reviewing this sign design application: 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 Sign 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." The existing "Self Storage" cabinet is to remain behind the new proposed sign which would include the fabrication of a new routed aluminum face and channel letters. Sign location would be same as existing. The property is limited for sign placement options, and there is no room (with required setback) for a freestanding sign. 2. The quality of the materials to be utilized in any proposed improvement Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748.4030 Fax (970) 949.5749 Lot 25, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision, U -Store It Sign Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 3 The proposed materials are appropriate for the project. 3. The visual impact of any proposed improvement, as viewed from any adjacent or neighboring property. This would be one of the most visible signs in Avon, with high exposure to Interstate 70 and Nottingham Road. Traveling from the west to east, the sign would be somewhat obscured with a large existing tree which blocks sightlines. The new Proposed sign would have a much stronger presence than the existing sign with a vibrant "Regal Red" color and doublestrocke #6500 neon lighting with white sign face and white 5" returns on the lettering. Sign lighting should be "no greater wattage than is necessary to make the sign visible at night" according to Code. The Commission should determine if the proposed sign is appropriate for this project, given the visual impact it presents. The Sign Code states that "the sign and its supporting structure should be in harmony architecturally, and in harmony in color with the surrounding structures." Further, the Commercial Design Guidelines encourage "well-designed and constructed signs that attract attention, create a sense of quality and contribute to the overall urban character of the Town." Staff believes that the visual impact of this sign should be considered based on the proposed color and light intensity of this sign. 4. 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 Staffs opinion that there will be no monetary values impaired with this sign. Aesthetic values may be impaired and this criteria should be reviewed with care. There are similar signs in the area, however, this sign may be too dissimilar to others such that aesthetic qualities should be reviewed. 5. Whether the type, height, size, and/or quality of signs generally complies with the Sign Code, and are appropriate for the project. The proposed sign generally complies with the Sign Code in terms of size and construction quality. The sign would be 2'x 20', or 40 square feet. For an individual business property the Sign Code permits one (1) square foot of sign area per lineal foot of building front and there is 38 feet of frontage. 6. 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 which is appropriate given its proposed location, size, and orientation facing roadways. Recommendation Staff recommends denial of the sign design application for Lot 25, Block 1, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision. See recommendation below.

Staff Report Final Desi i/, AVON nCOLORADO June 6th, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Report date May 30, 2006 Project type Duplex Legal description Lot 12, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision Zoning 2 Units — Residential Duplex Address 5712 Wildridge Road East Introduction The applicant is proposing a Final Design application for an 8,400 square foot duplex residence. The subject property is a steep uphill lot that contains a platted non -developable area along the northern property line and significant topography (slopes in excess of 40%) along the lower portion of the lot. As a result, the property presents significant design challenges due to the steep access conditions and severity of the topography. Therefore, careful consideration should be given to all grading, use of retaining walls, and treatment of exposed slopes. At the February 21, 2006 meeting, the Commission reviewed the Sketch Design application and complimented the applicant on the architectural style of the building and use of quality building material. However, It was suggested by staff that the site design and excessive use of retaining walls needed further development. Staff identified several issues that need further refinement prior to receiving support of the design review application. These issues revolve around the proposed size of the structure relative to the size and nature of the lot, which in our opinion created excessive site disturbance. It was also suggested by the Commission that the landscaping and mitigation of walls and exposed slopes needed to exceed the minimum standards in this case. As presented, the access to the site has 10% driveway grades, numerous tiers of engineered retaining walls for the access drive and for the structure, and significant cut and fill slopes. In addition, the building may meet or exceed the maximum height of 35' in some areas. The current application does not appear to have been refined adequately with respect to the site planning and design issues raised during Sketch Review. Both the site plan and building design have remained unchanged from the previous review. Staff recognizes that whatever design solution is reached, there will be a need for retaining walls and steep access grades. However, staff is unconvinced that the Final Design application has been fully developed to sufficiently address the concerns previously expresses. Particularly Town or Avon Community Development (970) 748403U Fax (97u) Lot 12, Block 4, Wildridge Duplex Final Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 5 the emphasis from the Commission on landscaping and the omission of the required outdoor lighting cut sheets. Accordingly, staff is recommending the application be TABLED until these areas have been refined or mitigated. Staff has included the meeting minutes form the prior Sketch Design review along with a color rendering in the Commission packet. According to the applicant, a massing model will be available at the meeting along with a color board. 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 this project: 1. The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Town of Avon Zoning Code. • Allowed use: The proposed duplex residence is an allowed use on the subject property. • Density. The lot is zoned for a duplex residence and therefore is in accordance with the permitted density. • Lot Coverage: Maximum building coverage allowed under the Wildridge PUD is 50%, the applicant is proposing 20%. • Setbacks: The setbacks for the property are typical for the Wildridge Subdivision. There are 10' sideyard setbacks and a 25' frontyard setback. All building setbacks have been adhered to with this submittal. • Easements: Utility and Drainage Easements of 7.5' in width border each side of the property. There is a 10' Utility and Drainage Easement on the south side of the property. • Building Height: The maximum allowable building height for this property is 35.' This design is proposing a maximum height of 35', which according to our calculations exceed this height in some areas. Nonetheless, because the height is at or near the maximum allowable height, staff would request a framing Improvement Location Certificate (ILC) to be submitted and approved by the Town to verifycompliance with this zoning requirement during construction. • Grading/Drainage: The Site Plan indicates that most of the drainage will move around the upper portion of the lot in an east to west direction above the retaining wall(s). The grading and drainage appear to be functional. Parking: A minimum of 6 parking spaces is required for this project. This design is in compliance with the Zoning Code, proposing 6 garage parking spaces with limited opportunity for turning movements. .

At least 636 square feet (20% of paved surface) of storage area must be provided, and the plans call out 2000 square feet of area. 2. The general conformance with Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan, and any sub -area plan which pertains. The Comprehensive Plan puts limited emphasis on the Wildridge PUD, which is referred to as 'Sub area 24' - a Low Priority. This plan is in general conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. Whether adequate development rights exist for the proposed improvements. Adequate development rights exist on the property for a duplex residence. 4. The Final Design plan is in general .conformance with Sub -Sections A through D of the Residential Design Guidelines. A. Site Development: o Site Design: The Residential Design Guidelines put emphasis on site layout design, sensitivity to solar orientation, and sensitivity to existing and potential buildings in the vicinity. Structures should blend in with natural settings and the need for extensive site grading and slope retention should be avoided in all designs. For the reason stated previously, staff finds the application to be inconsistent with the intent of the guidelines. o Site Access: According to the Design Guidelines (Table 1.0), driveway grades should not exceed 10%, and no more than 4% entering the site and garages. The access drive is 10% for the majority of the drive, with balance between 34%. o Parking and Loading: The minimum parking standards have been adhered to with this design. B. Building Design: o Building Materials and Colors: There are a variety of high quality materials proposed. The proposed building materials, which include stone veneer, wood siding, timber accents, and asphalt shingles. The elevations submitted demonstrate variation on material and form consistent with the design guidelines. Additionally, the guidelines state, "all designs shall be compatible with existing built structures, the immediate built environment, and the design philosophy of the Town." The design appears to be compatible with adjacent structures. o Exterior Walls, Roofs, and Architectural Interest: The building's massing is broken up with varying roof planes, materials, and architectural interest. There are a variety of roof forms with asphalt shingles, and the sloping roof forms utilize corrugated metal. The Town of Avon Community Development (970) 7484030 Fax (970) 949-5749 Lot 12, Block 4, Wildridge Duplex Final Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 4 of 5 roof pitch through out the project varies from 3:12 to 6:12. According to the Guidelines, roof pitches should be a minimum of 3:12 for metal roofs. Staff has no objection to the proposed roof pitches. o Outdoor Lighting: A lighting cut sheet has not been provided by the applicant. C. Landscaping: Design Character: The direction given during Sketch Review was that the landscaping for the project needed to exceed the minim standards because of the unique nature of the lot and pother physical constraints. The applicant is proposing landscaping on 31 % of the site with minimal landscaping in the terraces of the proposed walls. Staff finds that the proposed landscaping falls short of the direction given by the Commission. Furthermore, staff would request the applicant to provide evidence from the engineer of record relative to the possibility to provide plantings between the walls. 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. The proposed structure is oriented in and east west direction which lies appropriately with the contour of the site and capitalizes on solar exposure. However, The guidelines suggest minimal use of retaining walls and site grading. However, because of the steep natural conditions of the site and the size of the proposed structure, there are limited options without significant cut and fill slopes. Staff would suggest the Commission explore with the applicant whether a smaller structure is more compatible with the topography and constraints of the lot, reducing the amount of grading and use of retaining walls. Moreover, staff believes re -orienting the building and reducing the massing may effectively reduce the necessary grading and disturbance of the site that requires such extensive retaining walls. 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 architectural style of this project is well done and should have a positive appearance as viewed from neighboring properties. The applicant has proposed high quality materials and earth tone colors that should make this project compatible with the surrounding environment. The mass of the structure and orientation to the street is of concern to staff. With multiple tiered walls and the elevated nature of the building envelope, the structure will have a towering presence when viewed form Wildridge Road East. Staff is particularly concerned with views of the walls along the access drive and along the eastern properly line. These walls range in heights of 2 - Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748.4030 Fax (970) 949-5749 Lot 12, Block 4, W ildridge Duplex Final Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 5 of 5 6', which when vied from the southern elevation may create the sense of one large wall if not properly mitigated. 7. The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired. Staff does not feel that any monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired with the proposed improvements. 8. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon. The proposed Final Design appears to conflict with the Town's Residential Design Guidelines in terms of minimize in the use of engineered retaining walls and excessive site disturbance. Staff Recommendation Staff is recommending approval this final design plan for Lot 12, Block 4, Wildridge PUD be TABLED .

A new lot would be created for the third single-family residence and the vehicular access to the new lot would be accessed from Wildridge Road East. Also being reviewed is a Preliminary Subdivision application. Avon Town Council, at their January 24, 2006 meeting, remanded this application back to the Commission for reconsideration. Commissioner Evans revealed to the Commission the Applicant's request to table this item to the March 21, 2006, Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting. No public input was provided.

The dimensions and size of the monument sign would be. altered and a new 2' x 8' tenant sign (identical to the existing signs that face the round -a -bout) is proposed for the east side of the building facing the off ramp to 1-70 westbound. The mockup of the monument sign, as requested by the Commission, is available for review before the meeting. Matt Pielsticker presented the Staff Report. TJ Connor approached the podium to discuss this application and the need for a larger monument sign. Mr. Connor was in favor of no pricing on the sign and requested two additional signs for 2 more tenants on the south side of the building. He also agreed to remove the sign on the east side. The Commission voiced a need for a mock-up of the proposed on-site sign. Matt Pielsticker commented that clarity was needed on the proposed stonework. Commissioner Smith motioned to table Item IX, Master Sign Program Amendment - Petro Hut, Property Location: Lot 67/68, Block 1, BMBC Subdivision / 0008 Nottingham Road, to the next Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting. Commissioner D'Agostino seconded the motion. All Commissioners were in favor and the motion passed 6-0. X. Sketch Design Plans A. Lot 1, Dry Creek PUD, A Resubdivision of Lot 44, Block 2, Wildridge / 2810A Old Trail Road Applicant: Michael Sanner /Owner. Trent Hubbard Description: Sketch review for a single-family home approximately 4,000 square feet in size for the first (southern) lot in the Dry Creek PUD. The design Is 'craftsman style' with the following materials: lap cedar siding, board on board cedar siding, dry stacked Telluride Gold stone, cor- ten steel roof and 40yr elk prestige composite shingles, and stucco. Matt Pielsticker presented the Staff Report to the Commission. The Applicant was not present for Commissioner review of the application. Commissioner D'Agostino began the review by commenting on the large amount of asphalt and the over grading on the east side toward the bordered lot, questioned the entry elevation, mentioned the cooling tower, use of stone instead of stucco, deck detail seemed lopsided, questioned the lattice work on the deck off the living room on the south elevation, windows needed instead of punched openings, and some windows were missing, but overall commented that it was a nice design. Commissioner Savage agreed with Commissioner D'Agostino regarding the cooling tower. Commissioner Smith expressed that it was a nice design and the cooling tower went with the house. Commissioner Struve concurred with both Commissioner Savage and Commissioner D'Agostino, questioned the maximum 4,000 square footage and commented on the landscape privacy. Commissioner Green had no problem with the cooling tower and expressed that the detail needed to be worked out. B. Lot 40, Block 4, Wildridge / 5070 Wildridge Road East Applicant/Owner. Phillip Matson Description: This is a sketch design review for a duplex located on Wildridge Road East. The building would total over 10,000 square feet (including garages) and proposes stone, stucco, wood siding (horizontal and vertical), and asphalt shingles. There is an existing single-family home to the east and. open space to the west and south. Matt Pielsticker presented the Staff Report. Commissioner review comments and concerns: auto mobility in the driveway, gigantic massing and its need to be broken up particularly on the north side; more emphasis on design, greater interest on the back side; plan discrepancies with materials need to be resolved; too similar to a Bear Trap project; compliments on lack of mirror image; good use of materials; review of deck's angles show columns and deck supports; 2 fireplaces were shown with no chimneys; and more attention to material detailing. C. Lot 12, Block 4, Wildrldge / 5712Wildridge Road East Applicant/Owner. Jim Jose Description: A duplex residence proposed on this Wildridge Road East property at the top of Wildridge. The lot is difficult with respect to steep existing grades and limited access opportunities. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff Report. Jim Jose, architect, approached the podium to address Commission concerns and mentioned pursuit of LEEDS certification for this project. Commissioner review comments and concerns included: heights of retaining wails; south elevation too big for site; project needs to exceed Town of Avon minimums for landscaping; driveway incline steep; nice design; need for a fold out of elevations; and, greater consistency of details with materials. Commissioner Green suggested a physical model to help neighbors with understanding the project. XI. Zoning Text Amendment - PUBLIC HEARING Description: The proposed amendment would establish self -storage as an allowed use in the Industrial /Commercial (I/C) Zone District by amending Section 17.20.010 of the Municipal Code and establish a corresponding parking standard for this use. Minimum parking standards for other currently allowed uses in the I/C Zone District (including self storage) are proposed, by amending Section 17.24.020 (C) - Off Street Parking Table - in the Avon Municipal Code. This amendment may additionally amend section 17.08 - Definitions - for land uses within the I/C Zone District. Eric Heidemann presented the Staff memo. Commissioners questioned the definition of °showroom", how parking standards were formulated, lack of electrical outlets in storage units; and who is impacted by the Ordinance. OPEN PUBLIC HEARING Brian Woodel, Slder, Smith and Frampton Real Estate, approached the podium as leaser for the Mountain Center, didn't believe a wholesaler would be interested as much as a retailer and questioned a furniture store as a use to throw in the mix. Dave Svabik, Metcalf Road property owner, commented that the definition of showrooms was vague in allowable uses; utility companies should be by Special Use Permit; sought tighter controls on Special Use Permits for Metcalf Road; discussed that parking did not address semi trucks and was corrected by Commissioner Evans that semis were addressed; and suggested removing vagueness from the Code. TJ Connors, AAA Mini Storage, commented to the Commission that one space for every ten units might resolve parking concerns and on the "IC portions, electricians, plumbers and subcontractors have office distribution storage all within the warehouse and as many as twelve employees, and their cars, with trucks to service accounts that cause parking problems. Chris Jurgens, Victor Mark Donaldson Architects, stated that TJ Connor's property's spaces are 6 — 8 total and not full, ratio of 8 spaces to 20,000 gfa tied to number of units may not be beneficial and agreed with definitions as presented by Commissioner Evans. Mark°Donaldson requested not going with spaces based on unit numbers. CLOSED PUBLIC HEARING Commissioner Evans motioned to approve Planning and Zoning Commission Resolution No. 06-05, recommending approval to the Town Council of Amendments to Title 17, Municipal Code of the Town of Avon, as it relates to the definitions, allowed uses in the Industrial and Commercial Zone District, and establishing parking standards for allowed uses in the Industrial and Commercial Zone District, with changes made to the definition of "showroom" and the ability to make a showroom as an Special Review Use. Commissioner Green seconded the motion and all commissioners were in favor of approval. XII. Other Business A. Comprehensive Plan will be on the Town Council Agenda for February 28, 2006. B. The orange fencing on the Car Wash site was discussed. C. Options to resolve the Comcast cables that lie above ground in Wildridge were discussed. XIII.

Because we are pursuing a LEEDTM Silver certification, the materials we are choosing consist of as many reclaimed, recycled, and regional materials as possible. This requires continued research and locating the materials which may or may not be exactly as represented in the color sample as submitted with this project. Our intent is to use a reclaimed bamwood siding and other reclaimed timber components for structure and accents. If it is acceptable to the staff and the commission, we would like to have a continued dialogue and approvals as the material selection progresses. This way we can continue our research to find the best possible product for this project and with your cooperation, a finished product that we can all be proud of. Thank you for you consideration.

Box 975 Avon, Colorado 81620 Attn: Planning and Zoning Commission Re: Wildridge Lot 12, Block 4 Ladies and Gentlemen: RECEIVED MAY 3 12006 Community Development Our home is located directly across the street from the subject lot. Several years ago, our neighbors and we protested the Town's re -zoning of this lot from single-family to duplex, which use is specifically prohibited by the Wildridge Protective Covenants. We attended the February 21 Planning and Zoning meeting where preliminary sketch design review occurred. We've since met with Messrs. Jose and Sutter, members of the applicant, Trinity Development Group, to review final plans. With this brief background, we have continuing concerns as follows: I . Size — The February 21 presentation was for a duplex structure of 4,000 square feet per side, or total 8,000 square feet. We're now told the structure is closer to 8,400 square feet. This is a strange response to the Community Development Staff comments and Commission concern that size is "excessive." As required under the Wildridge Protective Covenants, a single-family structure of no more than 6,000 square feet would be much more compatible with the size and nature of the lot. 2. Site Disturbance — The final plan appears to require the same extensive grading and mass of engineered retaining walls as the preliminary submission. Messrs. Jose and Sutter assured us that all retaining walls would be faced with stone. If the Commission approves the plan, this should be a requirement. Also, see "Landscaping" below. 3. Building Height — The structure is three full stories in some places. It's difficult to see how this won't exceed the 35 -foot height restriction. 4. Driveway — The driveway enters Wildridge Road on a dangerous corner. This location, coupled with the heavier traffic resulting from a duplex, suggest special measures. 5. Soils: Drainage — It should be proven to the Commission that soil quality and strength are adequate to support this large structure. We assume the Commission will also assess adequacy of the drainage plan. Town of Avon Planning and Zoning Commission May 31, 2006 Page 2 6. Landscapine — The landscape plan we reviewed appears to be a minimal response to the extensive site disturbance. Shouldn't landscaping also provide relief from the extensive use of engineered retaining walls, even if they are faced with stone? More important, however, the Commission and the Town should take measures to assure that landscaping is completed before a temporary certificate of occupancy is issued. Too many Wildridge structures are completed and occupied, only to have the landscaping forgotten. We will not be able to attend the Commission's June 6 meeting. We thank you for your consideration of our concerns. Our neighbors and we will await the Commission's response to these items before deciding whether to enforce the requirements of the Wildridge Protective Covenants. Sincerely, John M. Gardner cc: Jim Jose P.O.

Also, please recall that we were once prospective buyers of Lot 12, Block 4 and had a soil test done as a condition of purchase. Results showed substantial concern over the stability of the soil from significant moisture; therefore, it would seem imperative that the landscaping plan be not only completed but as close to native as possible and not require excessive watering. I don't know if subsequent soil'tests have been conducted; but our results are probably still valid as the lot is still in the same unbuilt and natural condition.

The duplex measures approximately 8,416 square feet (4,242 sq. ft. - north unit & 4,174 sq. ft. - south unit) of livable area. The entire structure, including garages, is near 10,000 square feet. Proposed materials include a combination of stucco, heavy timber accents, cedar and stone veneer siding. This application follows a sketch review which took place at the Commission's May 16, 2006 meeting. The subject property is a relatively steep uphill lot located near the top of Wildridge on Wildridge Road East. This lot is bordered by: a developed single-family home (west), Wildridge platted open space & White River National Forest (north), a developed duplex (east), and Wildridge Road Right -of -Way (south). There is a platted 'non -developable' area on the top half of this property. This design appears to adhere to the Residential Design Guidelines and has addressed some of the comments received during sketch review. During sketch design, some of the discussion included: limited driveway turnaround space, mirrored appearance of units, stacked parking design, landscaping importance, and the possibility of changing dormers on either side of the structure. Design Review Considerations According to the Town of Avon Residential. Commercial. and Industrial Desiqn Guidelines, Section 7, the Commission shall consider the following items when 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 proposed duplex residence is a permitted use on the site. • Density: The lot is zoned for a duplex and the density is appropriate. Town of Avon Community Davelopment (970) 748.4030 Fax (970) 949.5749 N. Lot 3, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision - Tripp Final Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 2 of 5 Lot Coverage: Maximum site coverage allowed for under the Wildridge PUD is 50%. This project is in compliance with the PUD, proposing 33% lot coverage. This coverage calculation excludes all platted non -developable area and areas over 40% slope. • Setbacks: The setbacks for the property are typical for Wildridge with a 25' front setback and 10' side and rear yard building setbacks. All building setbacks have been adhered to, however, decks and structure are in close proximity to the front and both side yard setbacks. • Easements: Utility and Drainage Easements of 7.5' in width border each side of the property. There is also a 10' Utility and Drainage Easement bordering the Wildridge Road Right -of -Way. Building Height: The maximum allowable building height for this property is 35.' This design is in compliance with the applicable zoning with ridge heights ranging from 22'-8" (lowest) to 31' (highest). A framing Improvement Location Certificate will not be required. • Grading/Drainage: All existing and proposed grade contours are clearly indicated on the site plan. It appears that there is adequate room for drainage around the structure, but this must be demonstrated with drainage patterns at building permit submittal. • Parking: A minimum of 6 parking spaces is required for this project. This design is in compliance proposing 6 internal garage parking spaces. • Snow Storage: Two separate areas are called out on the Site Plan designated for storage adjacent to the driveway. The areas on the site plan for snow storage appear to be functional and the majority of the driveway should benefit from sun exposure. 620 square feet are required and the two areas provided total 720 square feet. • Landscaping: The landscape plan is in compliance with the zoning, proposing at least 25% of the property. 2. The general conformance with Goals and Policies of the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan, and any sub -area plan which pertains. The project generally complies with the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan. 3. Whether adequate development rights exist for the proposed improvements. Adequate development rights exist on the property for up to two dwelling units. 4. The Final Design plan is in general conformance with Sub -Sections A through D of the Residential,_Commerciaand Industrial Design Guidelines. A. Site Development: o Site Design: The Design Guidelines put emphasis on site layout design, and state that structures should blend in with natural settings and limit the need for extensive site grading and slope retention. Additionally, buildings Town of Avon Community Development (970) 748-4030 _ Fax (970) 949.5749 9' Lot 3, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision - Tripp Final Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 3 of 5 should be stepped in appearance where practical. Site access shall blend with the natural contours of the site. The driveway vehicle entrance is at the southeast corner of the property at the highest possible access point in order to work with the existing grades. The building is linear in shape to work with the steep existing grades, and the structure is somewhat stepped in appearance. o Site Access: According to the Design Guidelines (Table 1.0), driveway grades should not exceed 10%. The driveway entrance is compliant with the guidelines with a 4% initial grade for the initial 20' perpendicular to the roadway, eventually ascending at a maximum of 10% grade to reach the building. The driveway entrance and grades are consistent with the Guidelines. o Parking and Loading. The minimum parking standards have been adhered to for this project. B. Building Design: o Building Materials and Colors: A variety of high quality building materials are proposed with this application including: stucco, timber accents, cedar and stone veneer siding. All of the proposed building colors are earthtone and should be appropriate for the site and neighborhood. A color board will be available for review at the work session on the meeting date. o Exterior Walls, Roofs, and Architectural Interest: The building's massing is broken up with varying roof planes, materials, and architectural interest. The roof pitch through out the project is predominately 6:12 with limited 4:12 forms. o Outdoor Lighting: One light fixture is proposed with this design application and the design is 'dark sky' compliant. The bulb is fully recessed in the fixture housing and the fixture utilizes a rust finish. C. Landscaping: o Retaining Walls: There is the need for 8-10 feet of retainage above the driveway between the driveway and the lower level of the eastern unit. The plans call out two separate 4' boulder retaining walls (or keystone if boulders are not available) in this location. The keystone walls would be the tumbled keystone texture if boulders are not an option. Additionally, there is a 4' wall running the length of the downhill side of the driveway and there are two stucco faced concrete tiered walls with sandstone caps leaving the structure on the street side of the project on Unit As lower level. These structured walls are 5' and 3' respectively. Some shrubs are being proposed in this area. o Design Character. The provided Landscape Plan appears to comply with the intent of the Residential Landscaping Guidelines. Limited areas of sod are proposed on the site in front of the structure and potential areas are called out behind the building. The total irrigated area appears to slightly Town of Avon Community Development (970) 7484030 Fax (970) 949.5749 Lot 3, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision - Tripp Final Design June 6, 2006 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Page 4 of 5 exceed the allowed 20% of landscaped area if the 'potential' sod areas behind the structure are utilized. Compliance with the irrigation requirements must be addressed by building permit submittal. A mixture of at least 9 blue spruce, 19 crabapple or aspens, and various juniper and potentials are supplied. Staff would recommend that sage plantings be incorporated into a revised landscape plan. 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. The design and building appear to be compatible with the site topography. The structure would be dug into the hillside with the majority of the lower levels buried on the north elevation. Much of the upper limits of disturbance should not be visible with the size of the structure. 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 project could have somewhat of a dominate appearance from the roadway stretching from setback to setback. Although the proposed structure will be highly visible from Wildridge Road, the scale of the development is similar to other duplex structures in the neighborhood and is in compliance with all applicable zoning standards. The applicant has proposed high quality materials and earth tone colors that should make this project visually compatible with the surrounding environment. 7. The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired. Staff does not feel that any monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired with the proposed improvements. 8. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon. The project is in general conformance with the Town's adopted goals and policies and is a use by right per the Wildridge Subdivision. Staff Recommendation Staff is recommending conditional approval of this final design plan for Lot 3, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision. Recommended Motion " I move to approve the final design plan for a Lot 3, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision with the following conditions to be resolved prior to a building permit submittal: 1. Positive drainage must be demonstrated. 2. A revised landscape will be provided with the irrigated area no more than 20% of the'landscaped area'. Sage plantings will be supplied in all disturbed areas at a ratio of at least 1 sage per 100 square feet.
