Single family residence
Lot 20, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision
PUD -Duplex
5570 Coyote Ridge
The proposed Hunn-Kennington residence is an alpine style single-family house with stucco
siding, and stone and timber trim. It is located on a moderately sloping (14-16%) southeast -
facing slope. The lot is unusual in that it shares an access easement with Lot 21 (to the east).
Rather than using a shared driveway the applicant proposes entering the site directly from the
street, and locating a portion of the driveway switchback within the access easement.
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. The conformance with setbacks, massing, access, land use and other provisions of the Zoning
Code.
• Allowed use: Conforms with the allowed residential use.
• Density: Single-family use conforms to this lot's 2 dwelling unit designation.
• Lot Coverage: The proposed 10.8% of building coverage conforms to the 50% maximum.
• Setbacks: No proposed encroachments.
• Easements: No proposed encroachments; proposed grading in the 10' Slope Maintenance
and Snow Storage Easement is acceptable.
• Building Height: The largest proposed height of 33.5' conforms to the 35' maximum.
• Grading: One area below the driveway on the north east side of the lot exceeds a 2:1
slope. The applicant has agreed to provide a boulder retaining wall and to reduce the
slope to a maximum of 2:1. The proposed driveway grades conform to Town standards.
• Parking: The two garage and four surface parking spaces conform with the required three
spaces.
• Snow Storage: Submitted plans show snow storage area equal to the minimum standard
of 20% of the proposed impermeable surface area.
• Landscaping: Submitted landscape plan appears suitable.

• Access: the engineering staff recommends the driveway be flared on the east side to
provide an intersection closer to a 90 degree angle with the road.
2. The conformance with other applicable rules and regulations of the Town of Avon.
3. The type and quality of materials of which the structure is to be constructed.
4. The design of site grading and drainage to minimize impacts to adjacent sites, rights-of-way
and easements.
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.
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.
7. The objective that no improvement be so similar or dissimilar to others in the vicinity that
monetary or aesthetic values will be impaired.
8. The general conformance of the proposed improvements with the adopted Goals, Policies and
Programs for the Town of Avon.
