the exact type and brand of windows has not been decided,
it will be open to bids.
Hugh asked for input from the audience and the colors
were discussed.
Statements from the Board: stucco material to be used is
a good one, concern that it will hold up and the color
combination is pleasing.
The color of the roofing of Avon Center and Peregrine Prop-
erties is subject to approval of the Design Review Board
at a later date. Avon Center is not certain which part
of the building will be constructed in Phase one. They
would like to start with Phase one of the building and
continue through to Phase four, but economic factors must
be considered before final plans. Store front facades -
on the outside will be subject to approval by the Board,
interior facades are subject to review by Avon Center.
Larry Kumpost stated that because easements will be granted
by the Town, the interior mall space should be reviewed
by the Board, he would like a legal commitment to that end.
After discussion, it was stated that the interior public
ways will be subject to Board approval. If phases for
an
construction are begun several months apart (about one
year) then temporary landscaping measures will be taken
on the undeveloped ground. The landscaping budget does
not include the cost to be incurred by Avon Center when
the mall is finalized. The final landscaping will be
completed in phases along with the building. Approval
of the landscaping plan is subject to acceptable design
and financial integration with the mall. Drainage -
whenever a drainage and runoff plan is introduced by the
Town, Avon Center will adapt to it. Snow will be removed
for the most part rather than stored. There are areas
allocated for snow storage. Exterior lighting is ade-
quate, right of way areas are adequate for future widening
of West Beaver Creek Boulevard. Loading areas and parking
space size were discussed, STOL Port air rights of way
seem to not be a problem with this structure.
Ken Shapiro made a request for final approval contingent
on the following: Avon Center meeting the Town's filtra-
tion and discharge standards for drainage when set by the
Town of Avon; subject to acceptable design and financial
interface of Avon Center's landscape plan with the proposed
exterior mall plan when finally designed and an agreement
in principal to participate on some 'pro rata' basis
in the additional cost of this proposed town mall area;
subject to Town of Avon's granting vacation of lot lines
and easements interior on this site, subject to final
agreement at a future date on the color of the ballast
used on the flat roofs, subject to future approval of the
Design Review Board of the interior public way; subject
to the developer's agreement that any proposed phase in
the project will meet all required Town zoning and other
regulatory requirments on an independent basis.
Once again Hugh asked for input from the audience, and
there was none.
There being no objections, final approval was granted
subject to the above conditions.
Item #2, Peregrine Properties, Lots 62-64, Block 2, Bench-
mark Subdivision, Town Center, rile No. 79-12-4.
David Towbin represented Peregrine Properties. David
stated that Peregrine is working on a new model and will
present it at the April 16, 1980 meeting.
Item #3, URS Reports.
Art Swords represented URS. They are working on a sign
ordinance and presented a preliminary design for a Town
logo. Three conceptual schemes for the mall - common
features to all three schemes: transportation center
on the east end, major activity center in central portion
of the mall, second major activity center on the west end,
passive areas and landscape areas. Major difference is
the pattern of pedestrian and emergency access. One
scheme - pattern is from side to side and mirrored by the
water. Second scheme - walks down either side of the
center area. Third scheme - pattern down the center
and skirting the buildings. The ampitheater, transporta-
tion center, stream, ice skating rink (3,000 square feet),
steps, and water feature in the pond were discussed,
with comments from Avon Center and Peregrine Properties.

In other business, Wolff Warehouses was discussed.
Art stated that they will bring in their same building
design with additional landscaping. Art will communicate
with Wolff Warehouses that the design :is not acceptable
as it is. Landscaping is necessary around the back of
the building to soften the view from the Peterson Ware-
house.
A motion was made by Larry Kumpost to approve the minutes
as read, it was seconded and unanimously approved.
The motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Larry Kumpost,
Bill Pierce seconded it and Hugh Price adjourned the meeting.
