MEMORANDUM 'Z
2 "'>
TO: Planning and Environmental Commission voe
FROM: Community Development Department
DATE: May 24, 2010
SUBJECT: A request for the review of a final plat, pursuant to Chapter 13 -12, Exemption
Plat Review Procedures, Vail Town Code, to allow for the re- subdivision of
Parcels A and B, located at 2399 North Frontage Road West/Parcel A, Resub of
Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1, and 2310 Chamonix Road /Parcel B, Resub of
Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1 (West Vail fire station site and future Chamonix
employee housing site), and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC100022)
Applicant: Town of Vail
Planner: Bill Gibson
I. SUMMARY
The applicant, the Town of Vail, is requesting the review of a final plat to allow for the re-
subdivision of the West Vail fire station site and the adjacent future Chamonix employee
housing site. Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Sections VII of this
memorandum and the evidence and testimony presented, the Staff recommends the
Planning and Environmental Commission approves this request subject to the findings
noted in Section VIII of this memorandum.
11. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST
The applicant, the Town of Vail, is requesting the review of a final plat to allow for the re-
subdivision of Parcels A and B, located at 2399 North Frontage Road West/Parcel A,
Resub of Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1, and 2310 Chamonix Road /Parcel B, Resub
of Tract D, Vail Das Schone Filing 1. This plat will allow for the development of the West
Vail fire station site and future Chamonix employee housing site.
A vicinity map (Attachment A), the Chamonix Master Plan — Neighborhood Block design
(Attachment B), the existing plat (Attachment C), and the proposed plat (Attachment D)
have been attached for review.
III. BACKGROUND
In October 1965, the subject properties were platted as Tract D of the Vail Das Schone
Filing 1 Subdivision under Eagle County jurisdiction.
In October 1986, the subject properties were annexed into the Town of Vail through
Ordinance No. 26, Series of 1986.
In March 1987, Tract D was resubdivided into the current Parcels A and B.
In 2002, the Town of Vail acquired the subject Parcel B for the purpose of constructing a
fire station and employee housing.
In 2007, the Town of Vail acquired the subject Parcel A based upon a determination that
this site was an optimal location for a new West Vail fire station.
In November 2008, Parcel A was rezoned from the Commercial Core 3 District to
General Use District through Ordinance No. 26, Series of 2008.
In November 2008, Parcel B was rezoned from the Two - Family Primary/Secondary
Residential District to Housing District through Ordinance No. 27, Series of 2008.
In January 2009, the Town of Vail adopted the Chamonix Master Plan. The Master Plan
established the Neighborhood Block scenario as the preferred option for future
employee housing and the new fire station.
In March 2010, the Vail Planning and Environmental Commission approved a conditional
use permit to allow for the construction of the new West Vail fire station.
IV. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code (in part)
ARTICLE 12 -61: HOUSING DISTRICT
12 -61 -1: PURPOSE.
The housing district is intended to provide adequate sites for employee housing which,
because of the nature and characteristics of employee housing, cannot be adequately
regulated by the development standards prescribed for other residential zone districts. It
is necessary in this zone district to provide development standards specifically
prescribed for each development proposal or project to achieve the purposes prescribed
in section 12 -1 -2 of this title and to provide for the public welfare. Certain nonresidential
uses are allowed as conditional uses, which are intended to be incidental and secondary
to the residential uses of the district. The housing district is intended to ensure that
employee housing permitted in the zone district is appropriately located and designed to
meet the needs of residents of Vail, to harmonize with surrounding uses, and to ensure
adequate light, air, open spaces, and other amenities appropriate to the allowed types of
uses.
ARTICLE 12 -9C: GENERAL USE DISTRICT
12 -9C -1: PURPOSE.
The general use district is intended to provide sites for public and quasi- public uses
which, because of their special characteristics, cannot be appropriately regulated by the
development standards prescribed for other zoning districts, and for which development
standards especially prescribed for each particular development proposal or project are
necessary to achieve the purposes prescribed in section 12 -1 -2 of this title and to
provide for the public welfare. The general use district is intended to ensure that public
buildings and grounds and certain types of quasi - public uses permitted in the district are
appropriately located and designed to meet the needs of residents and visitors to Vail, to
harmonize with surrounding uses, and, in the case of buildings and other structures, to
ensure adequate light, air, open spaces, and other amenities appropriate to the
permitted types of uses.
Title 13, Subdivision Regulations, Vail Town Code (in part)
2
CHAPTER 13 -1: GENERAL PROVISIONS (in part)
Section 13 -1 -2: Purpose
A. Statutory Authority: The subdivision regulations contained in this title have been
prepared and enacted in accordance with Colorado Revised Statutes title 31, article 23,
for the purpose of promoting the health, safety and welfare of the present and future
inhabitants of the town.
B. Goals: To these ends, these regulations are intended to protect the environment, to
ensure efficient circulation, adequate improvements, sufficient open space and in
general, to assist the orderly, efficient and integrated development of the town. These
regulations also provide for the proper arrangement of streets and ensure proper
distribution of population. The regulations also coordinate the need for public services
with governmental improvement programs. Standards for design and construction of
improvements are hereby set forth to ensure adequate and convenient traffic circulation,
utilities, emergency access, drainage, recreation and light and air. Also intended is the
improvement of land records and surveys, plans and plats and to safeguard the interests
of the public and subdivider and provide consumer protection for the purchaser, and to
regulate other matters as the town planning and environmental commission and town
council may deem necessary in order to protect the best interests of the public.
C. Specific Purposes: These regulations are further intended to serve the following
specific purposes:
1. To inform each subdivider of the standards and criteria by which development
proposals will be evaluated, and to provide information as to the type and extent
of improvements required.
2. To provide for the subdivision of property in the future without conflict with
development on adjacent land.
3. To protect and conserve the value of land throughout the municipality and the
value of buildings and improvements on the land.
4. To ensure that subdivision of property is in compliance with the town's zoning
ordinances, to achieve a harmonious, convenient, workable relationship among
land uses, consistent with town development objectives.
5. To guide public and private policy and action in order to provide adequate and
efficient transportation, water, sewage, schools, parks, playgrounds, recreation,
and other public requirements and facilities and generally to provide that public
facilities will have sufficient capacity to serve the proposed subdivision.
6. To provide for accurate legal descriptions of newly subdivided land and to
establish reasonable and desirable construction design standards and
procedures.
7. To prevent the pollution of air, streams and ponds, to assure adequacy of
drainage facilities, to safeguard the water table and to encourage the wise use
and management of natural resources throughout the town in order to preserve
the integrity, stability and beauty of the community and the value of the land.
Chamonix Master Plan (in part)
"The master plan is intended to be used as the development guide for the Chamonix
Master Plan Area. The plan identifies the location for the fire station and the employee
housing.... Locating the fire station on the southem edge of the property also locates this
more commercial type use farthest from residential development. "
3
"The fire station design shown in the Neighborhood Block scheme was the consensus
alternative of the Fire District staff and the Advisory Committee. The building foundation
itself provided retention of the steep slopes to the north of the site, and thereby offered
the most cost effective design. "
1a
"The main access street, which gained access to the site from Chamonix Road, bisected
the site... The main street passed through the development to the fire station site. While
access to the fire station was intended to be limited, this configuration allowed for dual
points of access to the site, thus alleviating traffic congestion. "

VII. REVIEW CRITERIA
Before acting on a final plat application, the Planning and Environmental Commission
shall consider the following factors with respect to the proposed use:
1. The extent to which the proposed subdivision is consistent with all the
applicable elements of the adopted goals, objectives and policies outlined in the
Vail comprehensive plan and is compatible with the development objectives of the
town; and
The subject properties are located within the Chamonix Master Plan area. The
properties are proposed to be subdivided to allow for the construction of the West Vail
fire station and the future employee housing as delineated in the preferred
Neighborhood Block scheme.
Staff believes the proposed final plat is consistent with the purpose of the Town's
Subdivision Regulations, the purpose of the General Use District, and the purpose of the
Housing District as outlined in Section IV of this memorandum.
Therefore, Staff believes the proposed final plat is consistent with the applicable
elements of the adopted goals, objectives and policies outlined in the Vail
comprehensive plan and is compatible with the development objectives of the town.
2. The extent to which the proposed subdivision complies with all of the standards
of Title 13, Subdivision Regulations, Vail Town Code, as well as, but not limited to,
Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code, and other pertinent regulations that
the planning and environmental commission deems applicable; and
Staff believes the proposed final plat complies with this criterion. The proposed final plat
meets the lot size and dimension standards outlined in the General Use District and
Housing District provisions of the Town's Zoning Regulations. The proposed plat
complies with both the general provisions and technical requirements outlined in the
Town's Subdivision Regulations.
3. The extent to which the proposed subdivision presents a harmonious,
convenient, workable relationship among land uses consistent with municipal
development objectives; and
Staff believes the proposed final plat complies with this criterion. The proposed final plat
establishes the easements necessary to construct the utilities and streets for the
coordinated development of the new West Vail fire station and future employee housing
sites in a manner consistent with the Chamonix Master Plan's preferred Neighborhood
Block scheme. Therefore, Staff does not believe the proposed final plat will have
significant negative affects on the future development of the surrounding area in
comparison to existing conditions.
4. The extent of the effects on the future development of the surrounding area;
and
Staff believes the proposed final plat complies with this criterion since the proposed final
plat is consistent with the Chamonix Master Plan's preferred Neighborhood Block
scheme. The proposed final plat also establishes the easements necessary to construct
9
the utilities and streets for the coordinated development of the new West Vail fire station
and future employee housing sites. Therefore, Staff does not believe the proposed final
plat will have significant negative affects on the future development of the surrounding
area in comparison to existing conditions.
5. The extent to which the proposed subdivision is located and designed to avoid
creating spatial patterns that cause inefficiencies in the delivery of public
services, or require duplication or premature extension of public facilities, or
result in a "leapfrog" pattern of development; and
Staff believes the proposed final plan complies with this criterion since this is an infill
development and the proposed final plat will not negatively affect the community's
special patterns. The proposed final plat establishes the easements necessary to
construct the utilities and streets for the coordinated development of the new West Vail
fire station and future employee housing sites in a manner consistent with the Chamonix
Master Plan's preferred Neighborhood Block scheme.
6. The extent to which the utility lines are sized to serve the planned ultimate
population of the service area to avoid future land disruption to upgrade
undersized lines; and
Utility services exist for the subject West Vail fire station site, and the Town of Vail has
issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for civil engineering design work at the future
employee housing site based upon the proposed plat. Staff believes the proposed plat
is consistent with the Chamonix Master Plan's preferred Neighborhood Block scheme;
therefore, Staff does not believe the proposed final plat will have significant negative
affects on utilities.
7. The extent to which the proposed subdivision provides for the growth of an
orderly viable community and serves the best interests of the community as a
whole; and
Staff believes the proposed plat is consistent with the Chamonix Master Plan's preferred
Neighborhood Block scheme; therefore, Staff believes the proposed final plat provides
for growth in an orderly manner.
8. The extent to which the proposed subdivision results in adverse or beneficial
impacts on the natural environment, including, but not limited to, water quality, air
quality, noise, vegetation, riparian corridors, hillsides and other desirable natural
features; and
The Chamonix Master Plan's preferred Neighborhood Block scheme minimizes
disturbance to the existing steep slopes on the subject properties and preserves key
pockets of existing vegitation. Staff believes the proposed plat is consistent with the
