is deleted in its entiretv and shall be replaced with the followinq text: Wood
shingles and shake coverinqs or assemblies are prohibited except where
exempted for replacement or repair per section R902.2.
Section 3. Section 14-10-5 of the Vail Town Code is hereby amended as
follows:
Sec. 14-10-5: Building Materials and Design.
A. The Town is situated within the wildland urban interface where
communitv values intersect with the potential consequences of wildland
fires. Wildland fires both biq and small have the potential to destrov
homes and neiqhborhoods within the Town. The architecture and chosen
materials of a building qreativ affect the survivability of that structure in the
face of a wildfire. The use of Class A roof coverings and iqnition resistant
buildinq materials decrease the hazards to the individual structure as well
as the surrounding homes.
AB. The use of RGRGGmbuctible ignition resistant building materials and
designs intended to prevent the spread of fire are highly encouraged. Vail
Fire and Emerqencv Services is available to provide more information on
the use of iqnition resistant materials and designs. Predominantly natural
building materials shall be used within the Town email. The exterior use
of wood, wood siding, native stone, brick, concrete, stucco, and EIFS may
be permitted. Concrete surfaces, when permitted, shall be treated with
texture and color; however, exposed aggregate is more acceptable than
raw concrete. The exterior use of the following siding materials shall be
prohibited: stucco or EIFS with gross textures or surface features that
appear to imitate other materials, simulated stone, simulated brick, plastic
and vinyl. The exterior use of any building material, including those not
specifically identified by this section, shall only be permitted, unless
otherwise prohibited by this code, where the design review board finds:
1. That the proposed material is satisfactory in general
appearance, quality over time, architectural style, design, color, and
texture; and
2. That the use of the proposed material complies with the
intent of the provisions of this code; and
3. That the use of the proposed material is compatible with the
structure, site, surrounding structures, and overall character of the Town
of Vail; and
3
9/7/2016
IIVWS-STORAGEIDESKTOPS$ITNAGEL IDESKTOPIORDINANCE NO. 25, SERIES 2016, WILDLAND FIRE RESISTANT
BUILDING PRACTICES.DOCX
4. That the material is noncombustible or aids in the prevention
of fires.
€C. The same or similar building materials and colors shall be used on
main structures and any accessory structures upon the site.
GD. Exterior wall colors should be compatible with the site and
surrounding buildings. Natural colors (earth tones found within the Vail
area) should be utilized. Primary colors or other bright colors should be
used only as accents and then sparingly such as upon trim or railings. All
exterior wall materials must be continued down to finished grade thereby
eliminating unfinished foundation walls. All exposed metal flashing, trim,
flues, and rooftop mechanical equipment shall be anodized, painted or
capable of weathering so as to be nonreflective.
BE. The majority of roof forms within Vail are gable roofs with a pitch of
at least four feet (4') in twelve feet (12'). However, other roof forms are
allowed. Consideration of environmental and climatic determinants such
as snow shedding, drainage, fire safety and solar exposure should be
integral to the roof design.
€F. Rooflines should be designed so as not to deposit snow on parking
areas, trash storage areas, stairways, decks and balconies, or entryways.
Secondary roofs, snow clips, and snow guards should be utilized to
protect these areas from roof snow shedding if necessary.
G. All structures shall have class A roof assemblies or shall have class
A roof covering materials, as defined by the adopted building code. The
use of concrete tile, slate, metal, asphalt shingle, fiberglass shingle, and
built up tar and gravel roofing may be permitted. Metal roofing, when
permitted, shall not reflect direct sunlight onto an adjacent property and
shall be surfaced with a low gloss finish or be capable of weathering to a
dull finish. Metal roofing, when permitted, shall be of a heavy gauge and
designed to provide visual relief to the roof surface (including, but not
limited to, a standing seam). Asphalt and fiberglass shingles, when
permitted, shall weigh no 1occ; than three
reefing be desiqned to provide visual relief throuqh texture,
dimension and depth of appearance. The use of wood shake, wood
shingles and rolled roofing shall not be permitted. Two-family and multi-
family dwellings shall be required to have uniform roof covering materials,
except when the design review board determines that the materials are
compatible, are integral to the architectural style of the structure and
different materials do not share any ridges or planes, but may share a
valley.
1. Nonconforming Structures: All structures that do not have a
class A roof assembly or class A roof covering material, or structures with

of a two-family dwelling, or the entire multiple -family dwelling,
except for a onetime exemption of up to five hundred (500) square
feet of GRFA, occurring after February 6, 2007, where any addition
of roof area does not share a plane or ridge with the nonconforming
roof, and may only share a valley. The additional roof area shall
conform to roofing regulations, and shall be deemed compatible by
the design review board.
Gb. Two -Family Structures: Upon reroofing one side of a two-
family dwelling, the other side eaay shall be required to be reroofed
if the two (2) sides have roof systems that share ridges or planes.
Different materials on each side of the two-family dwelling may be
permitted by the design review board if the materials are deemed
compatible, integral to the architectural style of the structure and
share a valley or do not intersect.
dc. Developments With Multiple Structures: Upon reroofing a
single structure that is part of a multi -structure project with
conforming roof covering materials that do not match existing
materials, the conforming materials shall be deemed compatible
with the existing nonconforming materials by the design review
board. Upon reroofing of additional structures in the development,
the materials shall match the approved conforming materials.
Should the matching material no longer be manufactured, a
different material may be permitted, should the materials be
deemed compatible by the Design Review Board.
GH. Rooftops: Rooftop heating and air conditioning equipment, large
vent stacks, elevator penthouses and similar features should be avoided;
however, if necessary, shall be designed to be compatible with the overall
design of the structure or screened from view of all adjacent properties.

HI. Solar Energy Devices:
W. Overhangs: Deep eaves, overhangs, canopies, and other building
features that provide shelter from the elements are encouraged.
dK. Fenestration: Fenestration should be suitable for the climate and
for the orientation of the particular building elevation in which the
fenestration occurs. The use of both passive and active solar energy
systems is strongly encouraged.
KL. Duplexes: In no instance shall a duplex structure be so constructed
as to result in each half of the structure appearing substantially similar or
mirror image in design.
L.M Footings And Foundation: Building footings and foundations shall be
designed in accordance with the minimum standards of the adopted
building code. Footings and foundations shall also be designed to be
responsive to the natural topography of the site, and shall be designed
and constructed in such a manner as to minimize the necessary amount of
excavation and site disturbance.
Section 4. If any part, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this
ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity
of the remaining portions of this ordinance; and the Town Council hereby declares it
would have passed this ordinance, and each part, section, subsection, sentence, clause
or phrase thereof, regardless of the fact that any one or more parts, sections,
subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid.
Section 5. The Town Council hereby finds, determines and declares that this
ordinance is necessary and proper for the health, safety and welfare of the Town and
the inhabitants thereof.
Section 6. The amendment of any provision of the Vail Town Code in this
ordinance, shall not affect any right which has accrued, any duty imposed, any violation
that occurred prior to the effective date hereof, any prosecution commenced, nor any
other action or proceeding as commenced under or by virtue of the provision amended.
