RE: Truscheit Conceptual Review: 4017 Lupine Drive/ Lot 7, Bighorn Subdivision (DRB110576)
Dear Brennan,
The purpose of this letter is to provide comments to you on the conceptual review application for
a new duplex at 4017 Lupine Drive. The comments below should be addressed with the final
design review submittal:
• Provide a engineered stamped survey (as well as all submittal requirements on the
application form)
• Show limits of disturbance fence on site plan.
• Grading is not permitted in the floodplain- please revise.
• Structures and footers must be a minimum of one foot away from the floodplain.
• Show a 4 foot concrete pan on both driveways.
• Remove address marker from Town of Vail right-of-way. Address marker cannot block
site distance or exiting driveway.
• Mail boxes will need to be relocated to the east or between both driveways. Please
contact the U.S. Postal Service for approval and relocation requirements.
• Revise floor plans to reduce GRFA to comply with allowable GRFA.
• The wall blocking the utilities in the front of the duplex should be as close to the house
as possible.
• Structure must have monitored fire alarm and sprinkler.
I will follow up with an additional letter after the December 21, 2011 Design Review Board
hearing to summarize the board’s comments and provide additional Staff comments. If you
have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
Best,
Rachel Dimond
