Introduction
August 1, 1997
Single-family Residence
Lot 46, Block 3, Wildridge Subdivision — The Schneider
Group
Planned Unit Development (PUD) — 2 units
4765 Wildridge Road West
This project is a 3,953 square foot single family residence featuring a combination of stucco and
rock, asphalt roofing shingles and clad windows. The Planning & Zoning Commission conducted
a concept review on July 8, 1997 with the following general comments:
1. Provide a complete landscaping solution around the structure.
2. Investigate continuing the rock base around the entire structure.
3. Provide consistent window headers and sills (i.e. south elevation).
4. Concern with potential soot stains on stucco from gas fireplace B -vents.
The site slopes down from Wildridge Road West at an extremely steep grade, averaging
approximately 42%. The site faces southeast with excellent solar exposure and views of Beaver
Creek and New York Mountain.
Design Review Considerations
According to the Commission's Procedures, Rules & Regulations, Section 6. 10, the Commission
shall consider the following items in reviewing the design of this project:
1. Conformance with the Zoning Code and other applicable regulations of the Town.
• Allowed use: Conforms with the allowed residential use.
• Density: Single-family use conforms with this lot's 2 dwelling unit designation.
• Lot Coverage: The proposed 8% of building coverage conforms with the 50% maximum.
• Setbacks: No proposed encroachments.
• Easements: No proposed encroachments and proposed grading in the 10' Slope
Maintenance and Snow Storage Easement is acceptable.
• Building Height: The largest scaled height of 34' 10"on the south elevation conforms with
the 35' maximum limit.
• Grading: All proposed slope grades conform with the maximum of 2:1 slope guideline
and the proposed driveway grades conform with Town standards. However, The

driveway is proposed to be 10 feet wide. Staff suggests the driveway be a minimum of 12
feet wide.
• Parking: The two (2) garage and the one (1) surface parking spaces conform with the
required three (3) 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.
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 structure will be constructed of materials that are compatible with the criteria of the town
guidelines. It should be noted the stone base does not continue around the entire structure.
Staff believes completing the stonework would create a better composition of materials,
providing the structure a visual base contrasted with the stucco walls.
3. The compatibility of the design to minimize site impacts to adjacent properties.
The proposed project will have minimal site impacts upon adjacent properties.
4. The compatibility of the proposed improvements with site topography.
The main axis of the building runs generally parallel with the site's slope. Site disturbance
appears acceptable.
5. The visual appearance of any proposed improvement as viewed from adjacent and neighboring
properties and public ways.
The massing appears compatible and appropriate for both the site and the neighborhood.
Again, staff believes continuing the stone base around the entire structure will enhance its
appearance as viewed from throughout the subdivision.
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 responsiveness to the site and limited site disturbance are compatible with the
Wildridge Subdivision.
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.
