Proposal for Increase on Community Development Fees (This item was deleted from the agenda.) C. Draft of Construction Rules and Regulations Commissioner Sipes suggested that dirt removal and excavating be specifically addressed in the proposed rules. Mr. Matzko suggested that the word "lot" be added right before single family residence. The Commission was in agreement to add the word "lot". Commissioner Karow suggested that the word "animals" on construction sites should be changed to "dogs". He said that we should put the exact words from the Title 6, which does say "physically restrained or in an enclosure". Commissioner Evans said he is disappointed to see that Electrical Contractors are exempt from paying Contractors Registration fees. Ms. Borne said the problem with modifying this is that it conflicts with the current Code. Ms. Borne asked for some input on the disclaimer on the last page. She stated that we have to tie the building permit holder rather than the owner to the permit. This is the reason why we are having the permit holder sign this document. The Commission suggested that an attachment go along with this document stating what code the Town is currently using. D. Letter on Lot C, Town Center Commission Fehlner said using words such as proportion, massing, hierarchy projections verses just recesses fails to convey the requisite articulation we are looking for. She said she is concerned because the developer of Lake View Terraces is going to build this project and I am concerned that they are going to build another pre -fab building. Under architectural expression, she recommended that they need to study are articulation such as recesses of balconies and dormers. I would say projections terracing of elements to avoid that tall vertical element so that they understand the stepping of mass. The lack of proportion of going from one building to another is of concern. The hierarchy of the building or the buildings. The courtyard is not a cohesive entrance. The grand entry is through the time-share. The roof reads like a thin line. Avon Plari„ong & Zoning Commission October 19,1999 Record of Proceedings, Page 4 of 4 Commissioner Sipes said the whole courtyard is a big issue. E. Buck Creek PUD — Wildlife assessment and Staff's recommendations to applicant Ms. Borne said the applicant is currently revising their plans to go along with staff's comments. VIII. Adjourn Commissioner Sipes moved to adjourn the meeting at 7:30 P.M. Commissioner Karow seconded. The motion passed unanimously. Respectfully Submitted, Beth Salter Recording Secretary
