Re: Fairmont Vail PEC Final Review Submittal
Dear David, TJ and Adam,
I am writing to provide a summary of comments from Town of Vail Departments as well as a summary of requirements for your PEC submittal for the November 10, 2008 meeting.
Public Works:
Provide a response to all comments provided by Tom Kassmel at our last meeting.
The loading and delivery bay will need to accommodate a WB50. Please depict this on the plans.
Be mindful of garage door height and grade changes at garage entry.
CDOT approval- Tom confirmed that a preliminary meeting where CDOT gives a conceptual approval of the Frontage Road grading and access will be sufficient prior to PEC final approval.
However, a condition of the PEC approval will be to get final approval from CDOT.
Fire Department:
Provide fire staging and egress on a separate site plan to clearly identify where staging and egress will occur and how fire trucks can be accommodated.
Need to provide access from fire command center to fire staging.
If you would like to discuss this further, please contact Mike McGee as soon as possible.
Planning:
Please note the requirements for parking, with doubled parked/ valet spaces at a maximum of 50% of the required parking, and compact spaces at a maximum of 25% of parking. Also note
that enclosed parking spaces have a minimum size of 8 feet x 18 feet, while you are showing bigger spaces as part of your plan.
Ensure that all plans have clearly labeled items and no internal coding that will be unrecognizable by Town Staff (i.e. S1- is this stairs?)
Letter from TJ Brink confirming that no HOA approval is necessary, since he has the rights to development, and as such, approves the project
A written statement describing the proposal and how the proposal complies with the applicable adopted master plans and planning documents, including:
Employee Housing Analysis: Existing and proposed square footage of dwelling units and each individual commercial use
Parking analysis: Provide data on how the project complies with TOV parking requirements
Summary of zoning requirements and how the project meets these requirements. I have attached a zone check sheet that will help you in this summary.
Photo overlays and/or other graphic material to demonstrate the special relationship of the proposed development to adjacent properties, specifically VVMC, and to public spaces
Utility companies’ sign-off for the project
Should you have questions, feel free to call or email. I will need to have all information submitted by Monday, October 27, 2008 at 5pm in order to have this item heard on the November
10, 2008 PEC meeting. If additional noticing is required for the conditional use permit, please inform me of such by Thursday October 23, 2008.
Best,
