Dear Mr. Flinn,
Thank you for responding to Staffs request that the three coniferous trees damaged during construction of the
referenced project be replaced with ten (1 0) aspen trees and a number of other shrubs within the lower benches
of the retaining-wall. I will plan to revisitihe site shortly after November 1$ to ensure that the proposed
landscaping has been completed. Until then, the fax that you sent me has been filed as the approved
landscaping plan.

Re: Driveway improvements DRB04-0579
Lot 49, Vail Village West 1d Filing
Dear Mr. Flinn,
Upon passing your residence in West Vail several days ago, it came to my attention that the three trees that
were originally planted within the'upper retaining walls have been removed and have not been replaced. Upon
review of the original application, I rehieved the following condition of approval:
o The applicanl shall ensure that the three coniferous trees cunently planted within the wall benches are
re-planted in their current locations by the time of completion of the wall or by November 1, 2005,
whichever occurs first.
Please let me know how this issue will be remedied. lf I do not receive a response within thirty (30) dayls of the
date of this letter, code enforcement action will be taken by the Town to ensure that the trees are replanted.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

FII:I76P,;
Dear Mr. Flinn,
Congratulations! Yesterday, the Planning and Environmental Commission unanimously approved a variance
from the Town of Vail's wall height regulations in order to allow two proposed walls within the front and side
setbacks of Lot 49 in order to support the proposed reconstructed driveway. The application was approved with
the following conditions:
1. This approval shall be contingent upon the applicant receiving Town of Vail approval of
the design review application associated with this variance request. (l have aftached the
appropriate application, per our conversation this afternan, to this lefter.)
2. As a result of this approval and prior to final inspection by the Community Development
Department, the applicant shall provide only two parallel parking spaces within the Right-
of-Way along Alpine Drive, subject to a new Revocable Right-of-Way permit from the Town
of Vail Public Works Department.
3. The applicant shall ensure that no vegetation shall be disturbed which is not indicated to
be disturbed on the plans. Additional disturbed landscaping shall be replaced, according
to a new landscaping plan, subject io review and approval by the Community Development
Department.
4. Prior to final inspection by the Community Development Department, the applicant shall
ensure that the driveway be paved, to come into conformance with the driveway material
regulations defined in Chapter 14:2 Definitions, Development Standards Handbook, Vail
Town Code.
Additionally, I have verified with the Building Department that only one building permit application will need to be
submitted for the sum of the design review and Planning and Environmental Commission applications (DRB04-
0579, upper wall; DRB05-????, lower wall [which application cover page you will submit today] and PEC05-
0036). As you know, the building permit submittal must include professionally-engineered and stiamped
drawings for each of the three proposed retaining walls.
I have attached a) the appropriate pages of the design review application for your review and signature, b) the
approval form from yeslerday's Planning and Environmental Commission public hearing, and c) a new
revocable rightof-way permit for your review and signature, which will allow for two parking spaces to remain
upon Alpine Drive. Once I receive the application and Revocable ROW permit and their associated fees from

A request for a final review of a variance from Chapter 14€, Grading Standards, Vail
Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 1717,Yariances, Vail Town Code, to allowfora
retaining wall in excess of 3 feet in height located in the front setback, located at

SUMMARY
The applicant, David Flinn, representing Seven Vails, Inc., is requesting a variance from
Chapter 146, Grading Standards, VailTown Code, to allow
ht, of the requested variance because a practical
Fh-ardstrIflis present and approval of the variance would not constitute a granting
of special privilege to this propertyowner.
DE$GRPnON OF REQUEST
The applicant is requesting a wall height variance in order to upgrade the driveway and
parking area of his residence, located in West Vail. The lot is zoned Primary/Secondary
Two Family Residential, in which zone the Planning and Environmental Commission is

tv.
Town of Vail. According to Town records, no improvements were made to the site or
structureuntil 2004. However,inOctoberof l99T,theLottotheeast(Lot45)wasbuiftupon.
The owner of that lot queried the Town regarding possible solutions to the encroachment of
the neighboring driveway (now owned by Seven Vails, Inc.) upon his Lot. The Town's
response to that query was as follows: 'ln the event that Lot 49, 1837 Alpine Drive, ever
makes application for improvernents it may be possible atthat time to require the driveway to
bebroughtintocompliance. Whetherornotthatcircumstancewill pertainwill beevaluatedat
the time an application is received and reviev,ed." No further documentation regarding the
issue is on file.
ln the fall of 2004, the applicant submitted an application for design review of several
proposed driveway changes which would allow the applicant year-round parking. The
driveway changes included itsl;llhFth6 the mf the
driveway (both to mitigate the encroachment onto Lot 45), and several changes to thegirc$' Currently, the driveway requires yearly grading, which, according to the
applicant, "pushes material over the edge of the cunent driveway, gradually expanding its
limits and encroaching on the natural areas to the north and east". In order for the yearly
grading process to be eliminated, the construction of the MSE and boulder retaining walls has
been proposed, each of which lie partially within the front and side setbacks. tF
Furthermore, as a result of the upgraded driveway, the applicant is proposing to utilize less of
the parking that currentlyexists along the right-of-wayfronting Alpine Drive, directlysouth of
the residence. Currently, up to four or five cars may be partially encroaching into the rightof-
way at any given time. This scenario particularly affects the effectiveness of Town of Vail
road maintenance employees during the winter.
@/-a+..,i+h -.,.,t,, h^,
At the time of original application submittalfor a redesigned driveway, the applicant had also
proposed the replacement of a timber retraining wall at the southwestern property line. The
applicant's proposal for the timber retaining wall was subsequently reviewed separatelyfrom
the Pldnning and Environmental Commission requestand heard bythe Design Review Board
on June 1, 2005. The application was then staff approved since the applicant was able to
replace the wall "same for same" without the need to permanently remove several large
coniferous trees from within the raall benches.
The application for Planning and Environmental Commission review, which was submifted in
January of 2005, is pending appronl.

2. The degree to which relief from the strict and literal interpretation and

uniformity of treatment among sites in the vicinity or to attain the objectives of this
title without a grant of special pririlege.
Staff believes that the relief from the strict and literal interpretation of the retaining wall
regulations would not constitute a grant of special priVlege. Some leniency is already
granted by the Vail Town Code zoning regulations for walls that are erected in relation to
access associated with garages on steep slopes. Furthermore

2. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or

3. That the variance is warranted for one or more of the following reasons:
a. The strict literal interpretation or enforcement of the specified regulation
would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship
inconsistent with the objectives of this title.
b. There are exceptions or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable

Re: Variance criteria - 1837 Alpine Drive - DRB04{579, Lot 49, Vail Village West 1"r Filing
Dear Elizabeth Eckel:
Addressing the 12-17-6 Criteria and Findirigs, section A stiates that the planning and environmential
commission shall consider the following 4 factors with respect to the requested variance. The lower
driveway at 1837 Alpine Drive requires a variance
1. The# of the reqrested variance to other existing or potential uses aN stucfurcs in
the vicinity. The cunent driveway location is used already in the summer months, the
upgrades will allow parking year-round.
2. The degrce to which rclief frcm the stict or litenl interprclation and enforcement of a speciM
regulation ls necessary tc achieve compatibility and uniformity of beatnent among srtes ln fhe
vicinity, or to attain the objective of this tide witlnut gnnt of special privibge. The cunent
driveway is along situated
and onto the
neighboring setback 1827 Alpine Drive.
3.
I
The effect of the reqrcsted vaiance on light and air, distribution of population, tanspoftatnn
ad taffic facilities, public hcilities and utilities, and public safefy. t-n-lll
decreasing the likelihood of cars protruding
onto Alpine Drive during the winter months, causing snow plows to deviate around the cars.Th€lfm a full time rental, so their parking will always be{ltllFl the off street
parking. The upper rental unit is only short term and owner's use, and the majority of the time,
this parking area will be empty should this variance be approved. When the upper unit is in
use, feurer cars will be parked there,
Such other factors and criteia as the commission deems applicable to the propoed vaiance.
The proposed parking area has been approved by Steve Arnold, the owner of 1827 Alpine
Drive, it will move the entrance to the driveway away from the front of his home, prevent
encroachment on his property and clean up the area visually. He has agreed to pay a portion
of the retiaining wall, because he believes it is in his best interest. 1837 Alpine Drive has
upgraded the deck, stairs and roof and this parking area will tie it all together making what was
once an eyesore, into a pleasing view from the road and for the neighbors.

Re: Drivewayimprovements DRB04{579
Lot 49, Vail Village West l"tFiling
Dear Mr. Flinn,
Thank you for the correspondence that I received from you yesterday stating your intent to replace the retaining
wall at the southwest corner of Lot 49, "same for same" while maintaining the landscaping. The "same for
same" status allows the non-conforming parking spaces to remain and the maintenance of the landscaping
satisfies the Design Review Board's concerns that appropriate landscaping be maintained along Alpine Drive.
Therefore, I havg staff approved the application with the following conditions:
D At the time of building permit submittal, applicant must submit to the Community Development
Department a full-sized professionally-engineered and stamped retaining wall design for review by the
Public Works Department.
D The applicant shall ensure that the three coniferous trees currently planted within the wall benches are
re-planted in their current locations by the time of completion of the wall or by November 1, 2005,
whichever occurs first.
Please let me know if I can help further with this aspect of the application. Otherwise, I will plan on seeing you
or Mr. Etters at the Planning and Environmental Commission meeting on Monday, June 27'n. Again, thank you

Lot 49, Vail Village West ts Filing

' 4l .i \r,
Dear Mr. Flinn,
Thank you for continuing to work with the Town regarding the proposed improvemenls to Lot 49 in West Vail.
Per our conversation yesterday, Staff has decided that the most practical solution for the replacement of the
retaining wall at the west side of the lot would involve the following steps:
) Replace the wall "same for same" in its existing location. This will allow some (likely one parallel space
ot 14' x 24' in size) of the non-conforming parking to remain in the right-of-way (subject to the issuance
of a new Revocable Right-of-Way permit from the Town). This action would also negate the need for
an additional variance request from the Planning and Environmental Commission.
D Re-grade and re-vegetate the area of the right-of-way (likely the westernmost area) which is currently
providing parking in excess of the Town's parking requirement for the unit size which exists upop your
lot. This will allow space for the landscaping that was requested by the Design Review Board. The
biggest consideration when planning the landscaping will be to consider the "site distance
requirements' dictated by the Public Works Department. Those requirements regulate that a certain
lineal expanse of road must be seen from a car parked in a driveway or parking space.
lf this proposal seems agreeable to you, please submit a landscaping plan before Tuesday, June 14rh,.and the
proposal will remain on the agenda to be heard by the Design Review Board on Wednesday, June 1Stn.
Additionally, please continue to plan on the variance request for the opposite side of the lot being heard by the
Planning and Environmental Commission on Monday, June 27'n.
Thank you for your continued patience, cooperation and attention to resolving these issues. Please let me
know how you would like to proceed.

Re: Driveway improvements DRB04-0579
Lot 49, Vail Village West 1'r Filing

Dear Mr. Flinn,
Thank you for allowing Pepper Etters to represenl, at this week's Design Review Board hearing, the proposal
for a "same-for-same" replacement of the retaining wall and the associated removal of three coniferous trees
located within the upper benches of the wall at the southernmost edge of Lot 49. The Design Review Board
visited the site, which visit, when combined with further understanding of the proposal, prompted the following
feedback:
F lf the Design Review Board approved the removal of lhe trees in association with the replacement of
the wall, the Board would likely require replacement plantings. Though Lot 49 is heavily vegetated, the
Board is concerned with the lack of screening that will result once the trees have been removed.
) Due to the proximity of the trees to the asphalt of Alpine Drive, it may be possible to transplant the two
healthiest trees to another area of Town (since Lot 49 is already heavily vegetated).
In sum, the Board felt that there may be a better way to address the immediate need to replace the wall. Due to
the difficult topography that exists on the Lot, the Board expressed its support of a variance from the Planning
and Environmenlal Commission should a better proposal be presented that would necessitate a variance. Their
feeling was thal no sense exists in replacing the wall in the same location, simply to maintain the non-
conforming status of the parking area. Therefore, it may be best to revisit one of the former proposals for a new
tiered wall installed five feet closer to the home. Appropriate landscaping could then be planned as part of the
new wall's construction, thereby addressing the Design Review Board's concerns.
However, a proposal of that sort would likely require Planning and Environmental Commission review and
would also require the compliance of the parking area with the Town's standards. Depending on the request,
that proposal could be added to the proposal of the eastern wall which was already submitted. The Planning
and Environmental Commission would then conduct a review of walls exceeding three feet within the setback at
three different locations; the southeast corner, the south central, and the southwest areas of the Lot.
Thank you for your continued attention to improving your lot. I look forward to finalizing this application with you
in the very future. Please let me- know how you would like to proceed.

Re: Drivewayimprovements DRB04-0579
Lot 49, Vail Village West 1"'Filing
Dear Mr. Flinn,
Thank you for submitting a check and a request for review by the Planning and Environmental Commission of a
variance from the Development Standards Handbook, Title 14, Vail Town Code, which regulates the height and
placement of retaining walls within the front and side setbacks. Per our conversation this morning, the
application was submitted in time (using the April 28th date of the your variance request letter) to be scheduled
to be heard by the Planning and Environmental Commission on Monday, June 13, 2005.
At this point, I will amend the Design Review Board application which was submitted last fall to reflect a "same-
for-same" replacement of the existing retaining wall at the south side of the lot, which wall currently supports the
non-conforming parking spaces located on Alpine Drive. By replacing the existing wall with a wall of exactly the
same design in exaclly the same location, the parking spaces that exist upon Alpine Drive will be allowed lo
remain.
Therefore the application that will be seen by the Design Review Board/Community Development Department
Staff and the Planning and Environmental Commission will reflect only lhe following changes upon Lot 49:
) The addition of a four foot (4') tall boulder retaining wall beginning at the eastern edge of the right-of-
way, extending north and briefly crossing neighboring Lot 45 (which property owner approval has
already been obtained), then extending northwest to the edge of the new MSE retaining wall; and
D The addition of a thirty foot (30') long, four feet (4') tall MSE retaining wall, proposed to extend south
from the north side of the driveway to within approximately seven feet (7') of the rightof-way.
However, please submit the following information prior to Wednesday, June 1"t, for review by the Community
Development and Public Wo*s Depaftments.
) Please delineate on the site plan the limits of disturbance fencing that is proposed to be in place during
the construction.
) Please clarify the removal of the existing timber retaining wall that at the west side of the driveway
extending north to the residence. What grading or soil stabilization (if any) will need to occur in that
area following such removal?
D. Please clarify the removal of any vegetation as a part of this proposal. lf I remember correctly, we
initially discussed the removal of the evergreen tree directly adjacent to the "mouth" of the driveway.
Will such removal still be necessary?
) Please submit an engineered design of the guardrail facing the driveway for review by the Public Works
Deoartment.
Finally, please fulfill the entirety of the submittal requirements for a variance application (enclosed). lt would be
ideal to have these items no later than Tuesday, May 17'n at 9am in order for the application to remain
scheduled for the June 13th hearing. Othenvise, the application may not be able to be heard by the Planning
and Environmental Commission until June 27tn.
Thank you for your continued attention to improving your lot. I look forward to finalizing this application with you
in the very near future. Please let me know if you have further questions regarding either the design review or
Planning Commission applications.

retain the design as submitted,
I spoke wttt chad salli in the Public works Dept, he mentioned that the furttrer off
the road fiat the retaining wall b built, the better it is for the Torn of Vail. sine rre
are grandfathered in with the same wallat ib cunent position, we should be able to

Re: Driveway improvements DRB04-0579
Lot 49, Vail Village West 1" Filing
Dear Mr. Flinn.
Thank you for submitting new information regarding the proposed improvements to the driveway, retaining wall,
and upper parking area fronting your residence. After reviewing the plans, it seems as though all of the
required spaces for your unit may be located within the boundaries of the new driveway that you have
proposed. Considering this scenario, all the existing parking spaces adjacent to Alpine Drive should be
removed. The Town of Vail bases the parking requirements for a dwelling unit upon the Gross Residential Floor
Area (total square footage) of that unit. Unfortunately, the Town of Vail has no architectural plans of the
residence. However, I have estimated its square footage to be between 2,000 and 4,000 square feet of Gross
Residential Floor Area (GRFA), which amount requires three parking spaces, provided that only one dwelling
unit exists within the residence.
Please submit a plan ihat designates the placement of three 9' x 19' parking spaces on the proposed driveway.
Once it is verified that all spaces fit appropriately on your driveway, lhe design of the 13.5 foot retaining wall
fronting your home may be changed to a design of lesser scope or height. lt is the Town's desire that all parking
be removed from its RighFof-Way and that the least amount of retaining wall remains in the Right-of-Way as
well.
Regardless, a variance from the wall height standards listed in Title 14, Vail Town Code, must be granted from
the Planning and Environmental Commission to allow for the four foot wall that is proposed to lie within the front
and side setbacks and within the Right-of-Way at the east side of the lot. I have enclosed that application form
for you perusal.
lf further questions arise regarding the wall design and the placement of parking, feel free contact myself or
George Chalberg, with our Public Woks Department. He can be reached via e-mail at
ochalberq@vailqov.com. Thank you for your continued attention to improving your lot.

Dear Elizabeth Eckel;
I have enclosed a modifred application for driveway and retaining wall work at 1837
Alpine Drive. Included in this packet are 3 site plans, 3 retaining wall plans as designed
by KRM Consultants, subsoil study for foundation design done by HP Geotech, 3 copies
of the landscape plan and 2 pictures of the existing retaining wall.
As Alpine Drive has expanded over the years, our parking area has encroached "toqlri{acloser to the edge of pavement on Alpine Drive. Because of this, and current_.;edning
wall conditions, SerrnVffi eroeosing
wim the existing &sign, 5 feet closer to the dwelling. Coupled *rrh@ proposed
modifications to the lower parking are4 this will alleviate the encdachment of parking to
Alpine Drive. Due to limited area for improvements, we are asking for variances so that
plans would be approved as submitted.
As trees have matured within the cunent retaining wall, the roots have led to bowing in
the rock/retaining wall that will ultimately lead to wall failure. Snow storage has been
towards the base of the retaining wall, and is anticipated to be there under this desigrr as
well. Guard rails will limit the snow storage area in that dfuection Currently the uppcr
parking area and retaining wall has no guard rail system, and we would ask that privilegs
with the curtEnt design as wdl.
The lower parking area encroaches on the neighbors' properly at 1827 Alpine Drive. Mr.
Amold, the property owner, has approved the currently proposed driveway design. We
also ask for a variance to the 4 foot retaining wall within the set-backs, so that we can not
encroach on Mr. Arnold's properfy any further.
Any questions, please grve me a call at 303-517-1714.

Re: Drivewayimprovements DRB04-0579

Dear Mr. Flinn:
Per our conversation yesterday, I would suggest that you conlact the Public Works Department directly about
two ditferent issues: the height of the wall within the front setbacks and the conformance ol your driveway with
the paving and grading standards outlined in the Development Standards Handbook, Title 14, Vail Town Code.
Generally, walls of up to 6' high are permitled in the front selback, pending Design Review Board approval, if
they are associated with a garage and if the average slope of the lot under the parking and built structures is
over 30%. However, since no enclosed parking exisls on your lot and I currently dont have a slope calculation
tor your lot, I am not sure whether thal standard would apply to your situation. As the Hazard Regulations,
Section 12-21-14, Vail Town Code slate:
The following additional special restrictions or rcquirements shall apply to development on any lot in a
hillside residential, single-family residential, two-family residential or two-family primary/secondary
residential zone district where the average slope of the site beneath the existing or prcposed structure
and par4ng area is in excess of thiru percent (30%):
K. Setbacks, as they apply to this chapter, as required by sections J2!5/!!8, 1 2-68-6, 1 2-6C-6 and 12-
6D-6 of this title, are amended as follows: there shall be no required front setback for garages, except
as may be required by the design review board. Garages located in the front setback, as provided for
in this section, shall be limited to one story in height (not to exceed 10 feet) with the addition ot a
pitched or flat root and subject to review and approval by the design review board.
L. Retaining walls up to six feet (6') in height may be permitted in the setback by the design review board
when associated with a permitted garage as referenced in subsection K of this section.
However, retaining walls may be up to 6' high in the side setbacks, making the professionally engineered
boulder wall to the east acceptable as it has been submitted. Depending on the feedback you receive from lhe
Public Works Department and should you choose to bench the walls on lhe west side of the driveway which are
within the lront setback, the bench ol combination walls must be 4' or % the difference ot the exposed height ol
the wall. I am attaching a graphical representation lor your reference.
Should you choose to pursue a variance for excessive wall height within lhe front setbacks, the applications
may be found on-line at the lollowing link: www.vailoov.com ("E-services" column, "form downloads' link, "PEC
applications" link, "variance" form). I would be more than happy to guide you through that process should you
choose to oursue that avenue.

Dear David:
r*'*-
I received some additional leedback from Staff and the Public Works department in the last couple of days. lt
looks like the grading will largely work, except that there is currently a 15% grade break, where only l4% is
allowed. I would recommend breaking to 3% and then 1% f rom the 1 0% descent, as proposed to the 10% to
5olo (totaling 15%) that is currently proposed.
Additionally, lhe four foot wall will be allowed on all areas of the site, professionally engineered, except lor
within the front selback. However, the wall may remain in the front setback at 4' high if the slopes underneath
the house are over 30%. I remember discussing this brielly with you and with Intermountain several weeks ago,
but realized that we never had resolution on that issue.
Steve Arnold has submifted sign off lor the portion that is in his corner. I simply need to get a revocable right-
ol-way permit signed and returned from you and see a plan reflecting what has been staled above.
Additionally, is your home a single-family residence? ll so, it may be possible to locate all of the required
parking within lhe driveway area, which would mean that some or all of the parking spaces in the TOV right of
way could be removed and replaced with some landscaping. Let's discuss this issue further.
lwill be out of town for the next couple of days, returning to the office on Monday, December 6th. I have not
contacted Steve Arnold yet today with these comments, but will touch base with him upon my return to town. lf
you have urgent questions before then, please feel free to contact Leonard Sandoval, with our Public Works
Department, at 97 0.479.2198 or lsandoval@vailqov.com

Subject: Subsoil Study-for Foundation Design, Proposed Replacement of Driveway
netai$nq wall, 1837 Alpine Drive, Lot 49, vail viilage west, Filing No.
1, Vail, Colorado
Dear Mr. Flinn:
{ ylyst"a' Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. performed a subsoil study for design
of the foundations for the new retaining wall at the subject site. The study was conduJted
in accordance with our agreement for geotechnical engineering services to you dated July27,20M. The data obtained and our recommendations based on the proposed
constnrction and zubsurface conditions encountered are presented in this report.
Proposcd Construction: The existing timber crib wall will be removed and replaced
with a new wall located on the site as shown on Figure l. The wall type has nofbeen
dete-rmined pending the findings of the subsoil stuJy. Cut depths are expected to range up
to about 15 feet based on the existing wall height. ive assume the new wall will be agavity design of similar size to the existing wall. Another project proposed at the
properfy is an elevated deck attached to the east side ofthe resldence.- Geotechnical
evaluation ofthis addition area is beyond the scope ofthe current study.
If retaining wall conditions are significantly different from those described above, we
should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations presented in this repon.
Site Conditions: &inp
-a} The wall is in one and two tiers between about l0 to 13 feet higi. The west end of
the wall turns back to Alpine Drive and the east end terniqates at a stairway down to the
enhance to the residence. Some of the ties are rotted and bulged from the ritained earth
backfill. No indications of seepage or hillside instabilitywer- observed at the wall.
Subsur{ace Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by drilling
-l exnloratov boring at the approximate location shown on Figure l. The tog of-the
boring is presented on Figure 2. The subsoils encountered, below about 7 feet offill,
consistof meinly clayey sand and gravel with scattered cobbles to the drilled depth of 3l
feet' ffi ffirfutrofna*mdacc dltt ndribrdfild grrrE* Results of swell-
consolidation testing performed on a relatively undisturbed su-pl" of the natural clayey
sand soils, presented on Figure 4, indicate low compressibitity under existing moisture-
conditions and light loading and a minor expansion potential when wetted. The
laboratory test results are summarized in Table l. No free water was observed in the

boring at the time of drilling but was measured at a depth of Z}%feet when checked 23
days later. The upper soils were generally moist.
Conclusions and Recommendations: Considering the subsoil conditions encountered in
the exploratory btittg, it appears feasible to construct a gravity type reraining wall at the
site as planned' We recommend the new wall be placed on ttre uniisturUed natural soils
below the existing fill and designed an allowable ioil bearing pressure of2,500 psf. The
soils possess a variable settlement/lreave potential and there iould be some post-
construction movement. The existing fill, debris, any topsoil and loose disturbed soils
encountered at the bearing level within the excavation should be rcmoved and the bearing
level extended down to the undisturbed natural soils.
The retaining wall should be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure based on an
equivalent fluid unit weight of at least 45 pcf for the on-site soil as backfill. Backfill
should be devoid oftopsoil, vegetation, debris and oversized rock. The on-site granular
soils can be assumed to have an internal friction (phi) angle of 32 degrees and a moist
unit weight 132 pcf. The wall designer should analyze the stability olthe wall for sliding
overtuming and global stability. changes to the global stability from the current
conditions are expected to be minor for replacemint of the wali at its current location and
configuration
We recommend the retaining wall be protected from hydrostatic pressure buildup by anffi. The drains should consist of drainpipe placea in the bottom of the
wall backfrll surrounded above the invert level with fres-draining granular material. The
drainpipe shoytd be placed at least I foot below lowest adjacent finisn grade and sloped at
a minimum lYoto a suitable gravity outlet. Free-draining granular maG;al used in ihe
underdrain system should contain less than 2% passing thJNo. 200 sieve, less t161n 5U/o
passing the No. 4 sieve and have a maximum size of 2 inches. The drain gravel should
extend up to at last%the wall height and be covered with filter fabric or strip drains
should be provided that cover at least 5(p/o ofthe cut face.
When the wall type and design section have been determined, we should be contacted to
perfonn additional analysis and provide additional recommendations as needed.
Limitations: This study has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted
geotecbnical engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no
waranty either express or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted in
this lenort are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory boring drilled at the
location indicated on Figure I and to the depth shown on Figure 2, the proposed Wpe of
conshuction, and our experience in the area. our findings include interpolation and
exnapolation ofthe subsurface conditions identified at the exploratory boring and
variations in the subsurface conditions may not become evident until excavation is
performed. If conditions encountered during constuction appear different from those
described in this report, we should be notified at once so re-evaluation ofthe
recommendations may be made.

This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design purposes. We
arc not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our information. As theproject evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field services during
construction to review and monitor the implementation of our recommendations, *d to
verifu that the recommendations have been appropriately interpreted. Significant design
changes may require additional analysis or modifications to thi recommJndations
presented herein. We recommend on-site observation of excavations and foundation
bearing strata and testing ofstructural fill by a representative ofthe geotechnical
englneer.
If you have any questions or ifwe may be of further assistancq please let us know.

Re: Lot 45 (1827 Alpine Drive)
Lot 49 (1837 Alpine Drive)
Vail Village Filing No. I
Dear Blake:
,,
As a result of your correspondence dated October 27, lgg7,I have met with Larry pardee,
Construction Inspector, and Charlie Davis, Building Liaison.
It appears that the driveway in question has been in existence prior to the property's annexation into
the Town ofVail and is therefore legal non-conforming in relation to the Town oiVuit Development
Standards. It does not, however, meet the current standards and regulations that pertain io this
property in the Town of Vail.
In the event Lot 49, 1837 Alpine Drive, ever makes application for improvements it may be possible
at that time to require the driveway to be brought into compliance. Whether or not that circumstance
will pertain will be evaluated at the time an application is received and reviewed.
If you would like the opportunity to meet with myself Charlie Davis and Larry Pardee we will make
ourselves available for such a meeting.
Very truly yours,

The lot to the west is Lot 49, owned by Seven Vails, Corp.
The building on this tot has been in existence for a number ofyears. The enclosed map for Lot 49 shows the location of thehouse and driveway that was added some years ago. The drivewaypartially encroaches on Mr. Arnold's lot, but more importantly asubstantial portion of the driveway is within the street right-of-way and crosses in front of Mr. Arnold's house.
Mr. Arnold has requestedl that Seven Vails Corp. consider apartial relocation of the driveway so that the entry is west ofits present location and not in front of Mr. Arnold's l-ot. Mr.Arnold is even wilJ-ing to pay part of the relocation-reconstruction cost. Seven Vails has indicated it does notintend to relocate the driveway. Mr. Arnold can deal with theissue of the driveway encroachrnent on his 1ot; however, a slightshifting of the driveway still Leaves him with the problem of thelot 49 driveway crossing street right-of-way on what visually
appears to be part of !1r. Arnold's lot.
It is my understanding that it is the current policy of the
Town to prohibit use of street right-of-way for driveway
approaches under circumstances where the driveway approach isoutside the extended lot line of the property being served by the
driveway.
Mr. Arnold iE concerned about the fundanental fairness of
s€ven VaLl's refusal to relocate the drLveway in compltance withthe Town's current pollcles becauge it w111 cost more noney. Ur.
Arnold has built a very nice house in the niddle of an expensLveIot, and the vLsual lnpact of the driveway cuttlng across thefront of part of hls house is disturbing to hin.
tfr. Arnold would appreciate the opportunity to explaLn hispoeition to the appropriate staff member. PleaEe resporli to nre
regardLng the policies of the Town on this issue.
SincereLy,
- r*1
