PZC Packet 080310I Af Staff Report - Final Design Plan VON August 3, 2010 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting o n a o Report Date July 30, 2010 Legal Description Lot 114, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision Zoning Planned Unit Development (PUD) — 1 Unit Address 2080 Beaver Creek Point Prepared By Jared Barnes, Planner I f -TR (3 Summary of Request Fred Wilson, Morgante Wilson Architect, (the Applicant) representing Ted Wolff (the Owner) of Lot 114, Block 1, of the Wildridge Subdivision (the Property), has submitted a Final Design application for a single-family structure with access off of Beaver Creek Point (the Application). The application proposes a structure encompassing approximately 6,800 square feet of gross floor area. The residence would contain three (3) stories with an attached two (2) car garage. Staff is recommending approval of the Final Design application subject to the following conditions: 1. Revise all plan sets to ensure the proposed snow storage area is fully removed from the Snow Storage Easement adjacent to the Right -of -Way. Process At its March 2nd, 2010 meeting, the Commission reviewed a Sketch Design for the Application. The Commission made the following comments concerning the proposed design: • Drainage to the west of the structure; • The linear design of the ridgeline; • Questions regarding the design of the rafters; • Lack of consistency with the lentils; and • How the color scheme will fit into the surrounding neighborhood; Property Description The Property is 0.53 acres, with street frontage along Beaver Creek Point. The Property generally slopes downhill from Beaver Creek Point to the east. The lot is vacant and immediately south of two recently developed single-family lots. To the east and west (across Beaver Creek Point) of the Property is a large Forest Service parcel zoned Open Space (OS) Policy Analysis The application does not negatively affect the planning principals for District 24: Wildridge Residential District as outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. Planning Analysis The Property is subject to two (2) separate plat requirements that restrict the building location and height. According to Replat Number 2 of the Final Subdivision Plat of Wildridge: No part of any structure on Lot 114 shall be greater than 18 feet, above finished road centerline elevation at center of lot frontage. The Property also contains a platted building envelope. The purpose of these plat restrictions are to limit visibility of development on the Lot due to its prominent location along a ridge, and to avoid the steep slopes that occur on the eastern half of the Lot. The application does comply with the aforementioned plat notes. As proposed and with the exception of a single roof ridgeline, all roof ridges have a USGS elevation of 8231.42. This results in a building height of 17'-11". Due to the proximity of the proposed height with the maximum height allowed by the Plat note an ILC will be required to verify this height. The building is also fully within the platted building envelope. As is evidenced by recent approvals on lots with platted building envelopes, certain types of on-grade improvements have been allowed outside of the envelope. Once again, due to the proximity of the proposed structure to the platted building envelope an ILC will be required to verify that all foundation and roof overhangs are fully within the platted building envelope. The proposed exterior light fixtures are full cut off and comply with the Outdoor Lighting Ordinance. Engineering Analysis The Engineering Department has made two comments on the application. They are as follows: • The snow storage area illustrated on Sheets C-1 and C-2 are within the Town of Avon Snow Storage Easement; and • The driveway drainage swale illustrated on Sheet C-1 drains into the snow storage area. This drainage swale will not function until the snow melts and allows the runoff to occur. The first comment will require modifications to the application and Sheets C-1 and C-2 will be required to be revised to remove this area from the Town of Avon Easement. The second comment should be addressed to assist the future homeowner with drainage that occurs during the winter months. Design Review The application proposes to use stone and stucco as the primary exterior building materials. The elevations also include sandstone sills and the use of asphalt shingles as the roofing material. The materials will be finished with the following colors, as seen on Attachment C: Stucco — "Navajo White" (ThoroCoat Fine #402); exterior trim — "Special Walnut" MinWax stain; and natural Dry stacked Colorado Moss for the stone. The landscaping includes eight (3) Colorado Blue Spruce trees that range from ten to twelve feet (10-12') in height, fifteen (15) aspen trees with two (2) to three (3) inch calipers, and a mixture of thirty-two (32) deciduous shrubs all five (5) gallons in size. The application does proposes to irrigate twenty percent (20%) of the Landscaped area with permanent irrigation. This is the maximum allowed by zoning, but is more than typically approved in Wildridge. Recommendation Staff recommends APPROVAL of this Final Design application for Lot 114, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision, subject to the criteria and corresponding findings listed in this report, and with the conditions listed in the recommended motion below. Recommended Motion "/ move to approve this Final Design application for construction on Lot 114, Block 1, Wildridge Subdivision, with the following conditions: 1. Revise all plan sets to ensure the proposed snow storage area is fully removed from the Snow Storage Easement adjacent to the Right-of-Way. and subject to the FINDING that the design is in conformance with the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan, Title 17 (AMC) and the Town of Avon Design Review Guidelines."

Incorporated into the design is the LevelX® feature. The LevelX® assures the lighting installer that the faceplates of these permanent- ly mounted fixtures will remain perfectly level upon completion of the installation. Many step and wall lights on the market today are designed so that if the mounting box is installed out -of -level, the face- plate, once installed, will also be noticeably out -of -level. Some of the features of the LM include: Sleeve is permanently mounted in concrete or wood wall combined with multiple threaded knockouts, easy -to -remove box for unforeseen future problems prevents having to chip away at the wall for repairs, and corrosion -free stainless steel inserts. ,f PERFECTION EVERY TIME The Patent Pending LevelX® system allows - LEVEL O 0 O the composite sleeve to be up to 3/8' out of e level, in either direction, while still allowing the n faceplate to be laser level! The secret The trim attaches to the adjustable . reflector assembly — not the composite sleeve or body. Heavy foam gasket keeps light spill to 01 a minimum.

Staff Report — Master Sign Program Amendment August 3, 2010 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting Report Date July 30, 2010 Legal Description Lot 1, Avon Town Square Subdivision Zoning Town Center (TC) Address 30 Benchmark Road Prepared By Jared Barnes, Planner l :YA Summary of Request Mario Giarratano and Monte Park, (the Applicant) representing Slifer Center Condominium Association (the Owner) of Lot 1 of the Avon Town Square Subdivision (the Property), has submitted a Master Sign Program (MSP) Amendment application for the commercial building (the Application). The application proposes to modify the existing MSP to allow for a permanent non -lit sign option for individual tenant spaces located on the ground level. The original MSP (Attachment B) was approved in November of 1993 and has not been updated since. Recent applications for individual signs have demonstrated a need for non -lit tenant signage that is currently not allowed in the MSP. Staff is recommending approval of the Master Sign Program Amendment application subject to the following conditions: 1. Once approved the Applicant will revise the entire Master Sign Program to incorporate the approved changes into a single document. Process All new MSPs as well as amendments to existing MSPs require review and approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The original MSP was reviewed and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission in November of 1993. Property Description The Property is 0.855 acres with frontage on Benchmark Road. The property is relatively flat and the building has signs located on both the north elevation (facing Benchmark Road) and the south elevation (facing the interior parking lot). Policy Analysis The property in question is located within the West Town Center Investment Plan Area which promotes properties facing and engaging the future Main Street. The application will have a positive affect on the main street area by making signage on that side of the building more aesthetically pleasing and potentially resulting in a greater number of signs facing Benchmark Road. Planning Analysis According to the Town of Avon Sign Code, Section 15.28.070, the Planning & Zoning Commission shall consider the following criteria in reviewing this design application: 1. The suitability of the improvement, including materials with which the sign is to be constructed and the site upon it is to be located. 2. The nature of adjacent and neighboring improvements. 3. The quality of the materials to be utilized in any proposed improvement. 4. The visual impact of any proposed improvement, as viewed from any adjacent or neighboring property. 5. The objective that no improvement will be so similar or dissimilar to other signs in the vicinity that values, monetary or aesthetic, will be impaired. 6. Whether the type, height, size, and/or quality of signs generally complies with the Sign Code, and are appropriate for the project. 7. Whether the sign is primarily oriented to vehicular or pedestrian traffic, and whether the sign is appropriate for the determined orientation. The application appears to comply with the intent of each review criteria of the Sign Code. The materials and colors proposed are in conformance with the existing materials and colors of the MSP. The proposed non4t sign option is a new sign type for the property, but its appearance will mimic that of the lit signs on the ground level. The application should have no negative impacts on neighboring properties and will help to reduce the amount of potential light trespass that the illuminated signs can create. The proposed application will not allow for more signage or new sign locations only an alternative sign type. Engineering Analysis The application will have no impact on the site design, therefore there are no comments from the Engineering Department. Recommendation Staff recommends APPROVAL of this Master Sign Program Amendment application for Lot 1, Avon Town Square Subdivision, subject to the criteria and corresponding findings listed in this report, and with the conditions included in the recommended motion below. Recommended Motion "i move to approve this Master Sign Program Amendment application for Lot 1, Avon Town Square Subdivision, with the following conditions: 1. Once approve the Applicant will revise the entire Master Sign Program to incorporate the approved changes into a single document. and subject to the FINDING that the design is in conformance with the Town of Avon Comprehensive Plan and the Sign Code (Chapter 15.28 of the AMC)."

Exhibit C Slifer,Framptoi, • Program Amendment Program Amendment Intent: As is the Associations original and current intent we look to maintain a sign program on our building keeping consistent representation for our tenants while keeping a uniform look to the exterior of our building. Our current sign program allows a combination of channel letters and cut out dimensional letters for lit signs. In the case of lit signs, the reverse channel letters specified in our program offer the lighting preferred for our building and wish to maintain this as the standard for any lit signs on our buildings. We are experiencing tenants needs and requests to be allowed non lit signs as an additional option. One of the reasons for this request is our Reverse Channel option for lit signs is one of the more costly mediums in store signs. As our building offers 2 distinct sign location vantage points North and South our tenants incurred costs per side for signs in our program average at about $5000 per side. We are finding that "nature" of some businesses (legal companies, mortgage etc) that a lit sign is not needed for some business marketing needs. The lit sign expense (with -out a non lit sign option) can be cost restrictive in our tenants ability to erect signs effecting our tenants ability to attract/conduct business. We have also had a variety of tenants utilizing our spaces for shorter term leases and these high costs for our shorter term tenants are not cost effective. Keeping our goal and financial necessity of maximizing our occupancy we look to offer a lower priced option to fit the need of our tenants keeping our spaces attractive to current and future tenants. The association is looking at the following amendment: Lead page 1 FIRST FLOOR TENANTS: LIT SIGN OPTION: (this is the same verbiage as existing text in program) FIRST FLOOR TENANTS ARE PERMITTED TWO SIGNS, ONE ON EACH SIDE ING.

Staff Report — Minor Modification August 3, 2010 Planning & Zoning Commission Report Date Legal Description Zoning Address Prepared By Summary of Request July 30, 2010 Lot 22, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision Wildridge Planned Unit Development (PUD) 2960 June Creek Trail Jared Barnes, Planner 1 5� The applicant, Jason Weingast of Active Energies Inc, representing the property owner, Jeff Jacobs, submitted a Minor Modification application to install solar panels on the roof of a duplex residence located at the property described above. Staff is recommending approval of the Minor Modification application subject to the following conditions: 1. Revise the proposal to ensure that the solar panels are mounted with a rise of not more than two (2) feet above the roof form. Process This application requires the Planning and Zoning Commission to review the proposed modification. Property Description The property is 0.492 acres with frontage on June Creek Trail. The property slopes uphill towards the east with the other half of the duplex to the north. The property contains normal setback and easements found throughout the Wildridge subdivision. Policy Analysis There are no directly applicable policies that govern this application other than the direction provided by recent decisions made by the PZC on this type of application. Planning Analysis There are no current regulations in place regarding solar panel installation, but the Town of Avon and the Planning and Zoning Commission do have the ability to review the placement of solar panels and regulate them to reduce their potential impact on neighboring properties. Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC) use the language from their recommended Development Code modification to Town Council as governing language for solar panels. Design Review The current Design Guidelines contain no regulations governing the installation of solar panels on roof tops. Based on recent reviews of solar panels, the PZC has directed staff to reduce the visual impact of solar panels to the maximum extent feasible. With the exception of structures with flat roofs, all other approved solar panels have been "flush mounted". This entails the solar panels paralleling the roof pitch and generally being attached with brackets approximately six (6) inches above the roof. Due to the orientation of the property's roof (east/west) it is impractical to require the applicant to flush mount the solar panels to the roof. However, it is practical to require the applicant to comply with the PZC recommended regulation regarding roof mounted solar panels. The recommended language would require the applicant to modify the application to ensure that no portion of the solar panel is more than two (2) feet above the roof at any point. The solar panel installation will still have to parallel the roof pitch, but it will provide the solar panels greater solar access. Engineering Analysis This application does not affect engineering regulations and guidelines. Recommendation Staff recommends APPROVAL, with conditions, of this Minor Modification application for Lot 22, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision, subject to the criteria and corresponding findings listed in this report. Recommended Motion "/ move to approve this Minor Modification application for Lot 22, Block 2, Wildridge Subdivision, with the following conditions: 1.
