L1 EW Building ModsDate: January 17, 1997 To: Planning and Zoning Commission From: Karen Griffith, Town Planner Re: Minor Modifications to Brookside Commercial Building Final Design (Lot 1, Eaglewood Subdivision) Frank Navarro, Owner of Brookside Park has applied for four minor modifications to the final design of Brookside Building A. These include: 1. Change in parking lot lighting standards (pole and light fixture)from a design similar to the Town of Avon standard street lighting with a rounded light shield to a more of a box design. 2. Change in parking lot configuration to save an existing tree an reconfigure the parking spaces. 3. Change in pool location and configuration. Pool shape is modified to a standard rectangle and is moved about 10 feet closer to the bike path. A path connection is made from the parking lot, to the pool, to the bike path. The irrigation ditch has been re -aligned to accommodate the pool. The ditch owners have approved of this change. 4. Change in exterior balcony to extend length of balcony on northwest elevation of building. The application also requests approval of a metal guardrail on the southwest building elevation. Staff will discuss each of the changes in order. 1. Change in parking lot lighting standards (pole and light fixture)from a design similar to the Town of Avon standard street lighting with a rounded light shield to a more of a box design • The modified light standard matches those used in neighboring properties including Sunridge, Westgate and the Beaver Creek West Parking Lot. The approved light has a similar design to light standards used for street lighting in the Town. Since the Town does has not installed this lighting standard in this area including along Highway 6 and west Beaver Creek Boulevard, staff believes the proposed lighting is compatible with adjacent development. Staff recommends approval of this modification. The height of the light standards will remain at 15 feet. • The lighting plan is modified to rearrange the decorative "landscape lighting" in the vicinity of the pool and the exterior pathways. The plan needs to provide a key to all the lighting, and include the wattage and height of all light fixtures as a condition of approval. The applicant has stated that none of these lights exceed 5 feet in height. 2. Change in parking lot configuration to save an existing tree and reconfigure the parking spaces. • The parking lot has been re -configured to save an existing tree on the south side of the parking lot. One space has been removed from this row and two spaces have been added to the eastern row of parking. The loading area has been re -configured to be less pronounced. 3. Change in pool location and configuration. Pool shape is modified to a standard rectangle and is moved about 10 feet closer to the bike path. A path connection is made from the parking lot, to the pool, to the bike path. • The pool has been moved away from the building toward the bike path to afford more privacy. This reconfiguration does not extend the area of site disturbance. Staff recommends approval subject to approval of the final grading and engineering design by the Town. 4. Change in exterior balcony to extend length of balcony on northwest elevation of building. The application also requests approval of a metal guardrail on the southwest building elevation. The request for the extension of the balcony and the metal guardrail are compatible with the building design. Staff recommends approval of these modifications.
