approximately 2,200 square feet. Each unit is proposed with its own driveway.
The site is located in one of Wildridge's more significant drainages. The site is steep, with slopes
at approximately 30%. Primary views are to the south with secondary views to the north.

2. The suitability of the improvement, including type and quality of materials of which it is to be
constructed and the site upon which it is to be located.
The home will be constructed of materials that are found through out the Wildridge
Subdivision.
3. The compatibility of the design to minimize site impacts to adjacent properties.
This site's perpendicular slope to the adjacent public right-of-way is unique in the Wildridge
Subdivision. Though dual driveways are normally discouraged, staff has concluded the site's
unique slope allows for consideration of the proposed dual driveways.
4. The compatibility of the proposed improvements with site topography.
The proposed design incorporates significant stepping of the structure to facilitate its
orientation to the southern views and solar exposure.
5. The visual appearance of any proposed improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring
properties and public ways.
The horizontal and vertical articulation of the structure should create a massing compatible
with the neighborhood.
6. The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that
values, monetary or aesthetic will be impaired.
The structure's architectural design is compatible with other projects in the vicinity.
7. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and
Programs for the Town of Avon.
Generally conforms with the adopted Goals, Policies and Programs for the Town of Avon.
