SUBJECT: MEMORANDUM Planning and Environmental Commission Community Development Department August 27, 2007 A request for a work session to discuss the potential redevelopment of Solar Vail to allow for a mixed use development to include employee housing units, office, and subterranean parking, located at 501 North Frontage Road West, Lot 8, Block 2, Vail .Potato Patch and setting forth detailsin regard thereto. (PEC07-0052) Applicant: Sonnenalp Properties, Inc., represented by Gwathmey Pratt Schultz Lindall Architects, P.C. Planner: Scot Hunn SUMMARY The Applicant, Sonnenalp Properties, Inc., represented by Gwathmey Pratt Schultz Lindall Architects, P C., has requesting a public work session with the Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission to discuss a proposal for the re -zoning and subsequent redevelopment of the property known as Solar Vail, located at 501 North Frontage Road West. The purpose of this work session is to introduce the proposal and discuss general concepts pertaining to the proposed density, use and zoning of the project, as well as the bulk, mass, and height of the proposed structure relative to compliance with zoning and master plan provisions. The Town of Vail Planning and Environmental Commission is being asked to listen to the presentation and provide any feedback that is appropriate at this time. Staff has not performed a formal review of the project at this time and makes no representations of compliance of the project with the prescnbed review criteria listed below in Section VIII, Applicable Documents. Staff will perform a thorough review of the project as it moves forward in the development review process. Requested Outcome of Work Session At this work session the Applicant and staff would like to review the larger question of whether or not the proposed bulk mass, and height are appropriate for the site when taken in context with its surroundings. Staffwould suggest that this proposal be reviewed in light of similar development proposals for employee housing, such as Middle Creek and that the Commission take into consideration the overall goals of the Town relative to the provision and facilitation of employee housing within the town. 1 II. DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST The Solar Vail property currently serves exclusively as employee housing for the Sonnenalp Hotel operations. The Applicant, in proposing this re -development, intends to maintain and expand this use as a direct nexus to the recently completed expansion and enhancement of the Sonnenalp Hotel. Specifically, the Appilcant proposes this re -development to address, proactively, the employee needs generated by the hotel operations now and in the future. As well, the Applicant has proposed, as a possible use of the site to sell deed restricted housing units to other businesses or developers in need of "off-site" employee housing mitigation in the future. The proposal will include a request to re -zone the property from High Density Multi -Family (HDMF) to Housing (H).in order to better facilitate the viable development of a significant number of employee housing units within the Town of Vail and to allow for the review of certain proposed conditional uses. Key components of this proposal include: • Demolition of the existing 24 unit building known as Solar Vail, originally constructed in 1976 • Development of a new building containing 63 employee housing units on five floors (including loft space) for primary use by employees of the Sonnenalp Hotel • Development of approximately 4,700 square feet of office space on the first level; linkage is proposed between office space (lease agreement) and dedicated EHUs within the building; one or two units are proposed to be `attached" to office space lease agreements and will be made part of an on-site employee housing management plan • Creation of seventy-one (71) covered parking spaces on two levels of underground parking (separated for office and residential uses) • Creation of a second access point from North Frontage Road • Preservation of existing earthen berm along North Frontage Road • Preservation and upgrade of existingtelecommunication antenna "farm" (to be better integrated into new architectural features of building) The Solar Vail development proposal will be comprised of five (5) different development review applications Each application is intended to facilitate the redevelopment proposal. The development applications include but may not be limited to: • A Zone Change application to rezone the property from High Density Multi -Family (HDMF) to Housing (H) to allow for proposed uses (Type IV employee housing and certain conditional uses) densities building height and parking for the project; • A Development Plan application for development within the Housing (H) district, • A Conditional Use Permit application for "Office Uses" located on the office level of the structure; • A Conditional Use Permit application for telecommunications equipment (antennae) installation, and; 2 • A Variance application for a variance from section 12-21-10A, Development Restricted, to allow for development on slopes in excess of 40% A vicinity map identifying the location of the development site has been attached for reference (Attachment A). A copy of the document entitled Tear Down and Re -build of Solar Vail Employee Housing dated July 26, 2007 (Attachment B) and a reduced set of plans dated July 17, 2007, are attached for reference (Attachment C). III. BACKGROUND The subject property was annexed into the Town of Vail by Ordinance No. 8 Series of 1969, which became effective on 8/23, 1969. The Solar Vail building was initially developed as an employee housing project in 1976 and has served (exclusively) as the off-site employee housing for the Sonnenalp Hotel. These. buildings were also approved for use as a telecommunications (cell) antenna 'farm" site; housing multiple antennae for various co -users or providers IV.

DISCUSSION ITEMS Zoning Natural Area Preservation District N/A Natural Area Preservation District General Use District The purpose of the work session is to discuss general concepts pertaining to the proposed density, use and zoning of the project, as well as the site development standards such as setbacks, lot area, site coverage, bulk, mass, and height of the proposed structure relative to compliance with zoning and master plan provisions. As a reminder, and pursuant to section 12-61-10, density control (units per acre and GRFA), building height, lot area and sited dimensions shall be as prescribed by the Planning and Environmental Commission in a site specific development plan. At this work session the applicant and Staff would like to review the larger question of whether or not the proposed bulk mass, and height are appropriate for the site when taken in context with its surroundings. Staff would suggest that this proposal be reviewed in light of similar development proposals for employee housing, such as Middle Creek and that the Commission take into consideration the overall goals of the Town relative to the provision and facilitation of employee housing within the town boundaries. Staff will address each of these topics and request that the Planning and Environmental Commission provide any feedback on the topics. This feedback will be utilized in preparing a request for final review of the rezoning request, development plan and conditional use permits. Density, Use and Zoning Proposed The applicant proposes to increase the density (units and GRFA) for this site above and beyond what current High Density Multi -Family (HDMF) zoning allows. For this reason, and to facilitate the development of employee housing within the Town of Vail, the applicant proposes to rezone the property to. the Housing (H) District. The District, generally allows for more flexibility with regard to site specific development standards while further restricting permitted and conditional uses to those directly related or incidental to employee housing. Additional Access to Site The Applicant proposes an additional site access point along the North Frontage Road to provide better circulation, egress and access. By providing a second access point further west along the south property line, the applicant proposes to separate access and internal circulation for residential and office uses. The Applicant must continue to work with Town Staff to study ways of improving existing driveway access across adjacent town property (Tract A). The Applicant must (as a next step) request permission to proceed through the development review process from the Vail Town Council (i.e. the "property Owner') to allow for any improvement on Tract A. As well, the Applicant may be required to obtain an access easement from the Town for any realigned dnveway access across Tract A. In addition, the Applicant must commence all necessary planning and permitting necessary through CDOT and any public utility for any additional road cuts along the North Frontage Road and any proposed improvements within platted utility easements. Specifically, an access permit from CDOT will be requiredfor any additional road cut along North Frontage Road Required distances between existing and proposed access points (road cuts) may create site planning constraints. Additional Water Taps for Site Staff suggests that the Applicant contact the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District prior to any further, submittals or review for this proposal to ensure that the District has adequate public facilities (water and sewer capacity) to serve the development. Development Standards Staff has performed an initial review of the proposed project for compliance with the development requirements of the Housing (H) District, Section VI of this memorandum. Within this analysis Staff has determined that this proposal is in general compliance with the development parameters for setbacks site coverage, and landscaping. However, the following issues of non-compliance and/or variation•(requested) should be addressed during this work session: Parking and Loading Standards: Improvements within Setbacks and Easements Although uncovered (surface) parking exists within the front setback and within a platted 30' Utility Easement along the south property line, the applicant proposes to construct below grade (covered) parking within this same easement and within the 20' setback prescribed in the Housing (H) District. Pursuant to section 12-61-5, the Planning and Environmental Commission has discretion to approve "variations" to the setback standards during the review of a development plan (subject to the applicant demonstrating compliance with certain criteria). Regardless of any future variation approvals, Staff recommends that the Applicant commence with all required planning and permitting with the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District regarding any proposed improvements within platted easements and the status of any live utilities. Further, Section 12-61-8, Parking and Loading, Vail Town Code states the following (in part): "No parking or loading area shall be located within any required setback area. At the discretion of the Planning and Environmental Commission, variations to the parking standards outlined in chapter 10 of this title may be approved during the review of a development plan subject to a parking management plan." The Applicant is proposing to provide 52 tandem residential parking spaces• rather than the 63 total spaces (1 space/EHU) required within the Housing District in a tandem configuration Pursuant to Section 1.2-61-8 (above) the Applicant will provide a preliminary "parking management plan" outlining and addressing self imposed deed restrictions to limit the number of vehicles permitted per tenant (or per unit), and defining how the shared tandem spaces will function. Development on Slopes Greater than 40% The Applicant proposes to construct small portions of the new building on slopes greater than 40%. However, Chapter 21, Hazard Regulations, specifically Section 12-21-10, Development Restricted, Vail Town. Code, states (in part): "No structure shall be built on a slope of forty percent (40%) or greater except in single-family residential, two-family residential, or two-family primary/secondary residential zone districts." Approximately 50% of the lot is encumbered by slopes in excess of 40%. Staff recommends that the building improvements proposed within this slope (hazard) category represent a relatively small percentage of the total areas encumbered by steep slopes. It is apparent after viewing the site and researching the original building permit plans on file at the Town that the slope behind the current buildings has been previously disturbed. Staff believes this proposal to redevelop this site offers opportunities to further mitigate (shore up) any unstable slopes and/or enhance vegetative cover on these previously disturbed slopes. Staff recommends the Planning and Environmental Commission provide direction to the Applicant relative to any possible variance request from the hazard regulation(s). The development plan review and approval criteria provide direction to the Applicant and PEC in considering any variation to site development standards. Requested Outcome of Work Session At this work session the Applicant and staff would like to review the larger question of whether or not the proposed bulk, mass, and height are appropriate for the site when taken in context with its surroundings Staff would suggest that this proposal be reviewed in light of similar development proposals for employee housing, such as Middle Creek and that the Commission take into consideration the overall goals of the Town relative to the provision and facilitation of employee housing within the town. Additional Information and Review Requirements Additional information and/or processes may be required in any subsequent submittals in order to adequately address the following issues and/or requirements: 1. Compete a Development Plan application per Section 12-61-11, Vail Town Code 2. Complete a Conditional Use application .per Section 12-16-2, Vail Town Code 3. Complete a Variance application per Section 12-17-2, Vail Town Code 4. Complete a Zone Change application per Section 12-3-7, Vail Town Code 5. Parking access and maneuverability study 6. Site Coverage — analysis of existing and proposed site coverage 7. Landscape Plan/Streetscape design elements 8. Grading, drainage and erosion control plans 9. Traffic Study - in conjunction with CDOT review and approval of additional access point 10.. Building Height Calculations — Roof. plan indicating all existing and proposed ridge elevations, drawn over existing and proposed grades 11. Sign -off by all beneficiaries for any and all proposed encroachments (improvements) within any and all easements of record IX. RECOMMENDATION As this is a work session to discuss the proposal conceptually, no action by the P lanning and Environmental Commission is required at this meeting. However, Staff recommends that the PEC provide general feedback and direction to the Applicant regarding the proposal in preparation for any future review meetings. Staff also recommends that the PEC specify any additional information or analysis to be provided by the Applicant for the purpose of any final review of the proposal and that the PEC make a determination regarding the necessity for (or waiver of) the following requirements: 1. Environmental Impact Report: pursuant to section 12-61-13E, for proposed development within areas with slopes in excess of 40%; the Planning and Environmental Commission shall either waive or require such report, the purpose of which will be to identify any environmental impacts resulting from the proposal. 2. Appropriateness of proposed re -zoning to the Housing (H) zone district (relative to stated intent of re -development and proposed uses and/or conditional uses). XI. ATTACHMENTS A. Vicinity Map B .

As we have discussed, we would like to ask for worksessions with the PEC and DRB to discuss our proposal for this site. The site is currently zoned HDMF and we understand that a zoning change to the Housing district (H) would give us more flexibility to do the proposed development plan. The existing 3 story flat roofed building contains only 24 units.. The Owner would like to tear down this tired and dated building and replace it with a new building that contains 63 employee housing units that are more closely aligned in size and type with the recently passed employee housing regulations. These units would be for employees of the Sonnenalp Hotel and some might possibly be deed restricted for use by other TOV developers who need to provide employee housing within the TOV. Almost all of the parking for this new building would be covered and would be behind the existing berm along the Frontage Road. The issues that we would like to discuss with the PEC in the worksession include, but are not limited to: a Zoning change: As noted above, the Housing District allows more flexibility in development standards than the current HDMF zoning. One factor that should be discussed is whether the property owner can revert to HDMF in the future when the time comes to replace this building.

Building height. There are some real advantages to the 8 12 roof we are proposing but it results in our being above the 48' height limit for the HDMF district in some places along the ridge. The H district does not have a height limit listed. The advantages are* 1) Allows a lower eave and the impression of a lower building. 2) Aesthetically cleaner than a mansard style roof that is arbitrarily cut off at a particular height limit and which has areas of flat roof that might be visible from the homes up the hill. 3) Provides headroom for a loft level in the top floor units which diversifies the mix of unit sizes and types. 4) Provides increased surface area for a solar shingle product on the south facing roof that the Owner is considering. c. Office space as a conditional use. The development proposal includes approximately 4700 SF of office space on the first level above parking. The Owner would like to use part of this space for employees related to the operation of the nearby Sonnenalp Hotel. These employees are currently located in Edwards and would be better served by being closer to the Hotel. The balance of the space would be leased out as professional office space. All Parking for the office would be accessed by a separate (existing) dnve and almost all of the proposed parking would be under cover. d. Construction into an already disturbed 40% slope. The economics of building employee housing are not very attractive which is why there is a shortage in Vail and the Valley. To make this project work we need in excess of 60 units and in order to fit this on the site, we have had to push part of the building into the 40% slope. We feel that this is not a big deal as the slope was disturbed long ago when the original Solar Vail was built. e. Parking in the front setback. The existing building has uncovered surface parking in the front setback behind the landscaped berm. The new parking will be a floor lower and we would like to contmue to have parking in the setback behind the berm. We would also like to ask if it is acceptable to cover the parlung in the front setback so that the cars are not subject to damage from the ice and snow coming off the roof above and to make it possible to extend the landscaping up to the face of the building in places. f. Parking standards: Due to the proximity of the Sonnenalp Hotel and the TOV bus lines, most employees living here are not allowed to have cars. As a result the actual need for parking is less than the TOV requirement of 1 per EHU We are proposing to provide 52 parking spaces in a double tandem configuration for the 63 units in the current development plan This is a ratio of .82 per unit which is more than the .7 spaces required for an AU in the TOV. • TRACT C GRAPHIC SCALE 20 , J0 1002u20 (M ' ) l Inch =20 ft FOUND No. 5 REBAR WITH WASHER (N8215'W - 14' FROM LOT CORNER) 585'42'23"E INDICATES SLOPE OF 40% OR GREATER LOT 8B TOTAL Sq.

Many of the issues on the table we have addressed including tandem parking spaces, and an additional curb cut off the frontage road. In our new plan we use the existing parking layout to maximize our single loaded parking spaces and cut back on the tandem configurations. In an effort to use our time with you and the planning commission wisely, we feel that presenting our new parking plan during the pre meeting could absolve some of the issues up for discussion and allow us to get to the more vital points. If it's just too late, that's fine, we will bring the latest drawings to the PEC meeting and go from there I have attached a pdf of the parking level- for your information. Please let me know either way, I would like to attend the pre meeting- if that's ok, whether or not we can present our new parking plan. Thanks!

Parking- A management plan will be created that addresses deed restrict ions, limits the number cars associated with the units, and shows how the units share the tandem rows of parking. Mr. Faessler will address the PEC and explain his low need for parking due to the proximity of his hotel as well as amenities and public transportation. The planners asked for the new square footage of parking in the South setback and utility easement compared to the existing square footage. 2. 40% Slope- In an effort to build mainly on the existing building footprint and to limit our disturbance into the steep north side of the lot, GPSL has used the building, mainly the North staircase, as a retaining wall making minimal cuts and stabilizing the hillside. The planners would like to see a graphic clarificat ion of the new disturbance in comparison to the existing footprint. We all feel that building into the 40% slope, not only in this case but in general, is inevitable due to the variety of lots still available in Vail. Henry felt that at this time it was better to apply for a variance than to revise the Town Code. 3. Office Space- In order to relate the ground floor office space to the employee housing above, one or two of the EHU units will be attached to the office space lease, which will also be part of the management plan. Part of the office space will be used by Sonnenalp employees. (08/15/2007) Scot Hunn - 081407 CM TOV_Pdf..._,_ Page 2; 4. The design team may need to lessen the slope of the existing drive by moving the curb cut East making the drive longer and flatter. This extension would be on TOV land. 5. The planners asked that we calculate site coverage, check egress issues and begin a code analysis. The design team also will address 12-6I-13 of the Town Code in writing and submit by August 20th. 6. Some building materials were discussed and it may be helpful to have examples for the next meetings i e. form liner finishes, MSC systems and the Ahwahnee Lodge.

I wasn't sure if you would include any area from the parking or office level before finding the 15%. Let me know what you come up with and if you need more info from me.
