CASOLAR VAIL
DENSITY VARIANCE APPLICATION
September 2013
The purpose of this report is to provide information on a density variance proposed for
Lots 4 and 5 of Casolar Vail. The following information is provided:
• Summary of request
• Background on Casolar Vail
• Future Development of Lots 4 and 5
• Alternatives to proposed review processes
• Evaluation of variance review criteria
This application has been submitted by Todger Anderson (owner of Lots 4 and 5 of
Casolar Vail) in conjunction with the Casolar Vail Homeowners Association.
Summary of Request
Lots 4 and 5 are platted, undeveloped lots within the Casolar Vail project. Due to a
number of very unique circumstances (further described below), there is no remaining
development potential necessary to allow for the construction of dwelling units on these
two platted lots.
This variance request to Section 12.6E.8 of the Vail Municipal Code (Density Control
section of Residential Cluster (RC) Zone District) is proposed to re- establish
development potential to allow for the construction of single family dwelling units on
Lots 4 and 5 of Casolar Vail. The diagram below provides a context map for the Casolar
Vail Droiect.
Casolar Vail Context Map
Density Control Variance Request
Casolar Vail Lots 4 and 5
Background on Casolar Vail
A review of Town of Vail files on Casolar Vail indicates that this project has an extensive
and arguably complex history with respect to zoning and the development review
process. This would appear to in part be due to the fact that zoning and annexation of the
property was done in the late- 1970's; a time when Vail was under intense pressure from
growth and development. In addition, files indicate that this was the first RC project to
be reviewed and approved by the Town and that at that time neither the applicant nor the
Town was prepared for dealing with the nuances of monitoring the development of a
"cluster development" project. The challenges of this project are well - characterized by a
staff memo for a 1981 variance request (for the adjoining Casolar II project) which stated
"the applicant appears to be the innocent third party victim of extensive mis- handling of
the project on the part of Mr. Knox (original developer) " and that "there never was a
clear understanding on the part of staff as to the allocation of GRFA — aggregate or per
unit ".
In 1978 the applicant proposed and the Town approved a plat that created 10 small lots.
A copy of this plat is found on the following page and Lots 4 and 5 are highlighted. Each
of these ten lots are 2400 SF in size and as such none of them meet the minimum lot size
prescribed by the RC Zone District. Given their size, these lots were essentially
"building envelopes ", however, they were platted as fee simply properties and each were
ultimately sold to individual owners with the understanding that they could be developed
within the parameters established by town zoning and the Casolar at Vail CCR's. It was
the intention of the project approvals in 1978 and as established in the Casolar CCR's
that Lot 4 was to be developed with a single family home and Lot 5 was to be developed
with a duplex.
Inherent in the "cluster development" approach to the project was the fact that the
development potential Casolar was to be determined based on the entire project area and
development potential was then to be allocated to individual lots. While the lack of
monitoring of development at Casolar as it occurred over time is an important part of the
history and problems associated with this project, the real issue at hand are the
implications from the 1979 change to the density control section of the RC district which
effectively reduced the allowable development potential after the Casolar plat was
approved by the Town.
The key factors relative to the background of Casolar Vail and the proposed variance
request are:
• The Casolar Vail plat (refer to next page) was approved in February of 1978 and
created 10 fee simple lots with common access and common areas surrounding all
lots. This final plat approval arguably established a "vested right" for the
development of homes on each of these ten lots.
• A total of 19 dwelling units were proposed - the applicants CCR's designated
Lots 1 -3 and 5 -10 as duplex lots and Lot 4 was designated a single family lot.
The 19 units were equal to what the RC zoning allowed at that time (3.2 acre site
at 6 units per acre equals 19 units).
Density Control Variance Request
Casolar Vail Lots 4 and
• CCR's established by the applicant established a maximum GRFA of 1,690SF per
unit. This SF equates to a total of 32,110 SF, a square footage that was within
what RC zoning would have allowed at that time.
• In January of 1979 the Town modified the Density Control section of the RC
district such that density was based on "buildable acres" of a site, not the gross
acreage of a site. This change meant areas of steep slope did not count towards
density calculations, effectively reducing allowable dwelling units from 19 to 14.
• Between roughly 1979 to 1981 the town approved building permits for duplexes
on eight of the lots comprising 16 total dwelling units. These 16 units exceeded
the 14 units permissible by zoning after the change to density control.

1978 plat for Casolar Vail created ten lots.
Density Control Variance Request
Casolar Vail Lots 4 and 5
-4
The applicant for the variance request, Todger Anderson, has owned the subject
properties since the early 1990's. A few years ago Mr. Anderson inquired with Town
staff about the development potential of Lots 4 and 5. Mr. Anderson was told that all
allowable GRFA and dwelling units for Casolar had been utilized. In response, the
Homeowners Association commissioned a detailed topographic survey of the property to
determine the project's buildable area. Mr. Anderson then retained Braun Associates,
Inc. to evaluate the project's allowable GRFA dwelling units.
GRFA
Allowable GRFA based on the new site specific topographic survey is 37,800 SF. Based
on square footage calculations of each existing unit the total existing GRFA within the
project is 29,950 SF. As such, based on the CCR square footage maximum of 1,690 SF
(or 5,070 for the three units), sufficient GRFA exists for the future development of Lots 4
and 5. However, Casolar is considered to be non - conforming with respect to density
control because zoning allows for 14 dwelling units and 16 dwelling units currently exist.
This also means there is no development potential available for the development of Lots
4 and 5.
Density — Allowable Dwelling
The 1979 change to the density control section of the RC zone district reduced the
allowable number of dwelling units from 19 to 14. Between 1979 and 1981 the Town
approved sixteen dwelling units and as such the existing density is not in conformance
with allowable density. As such there is no remaining development potential for Lots 4
and 5. While changes to development regulations can often affect a property's
development opportunities, in this case the change to density control eliminated all
development rights on these two platted lots.
The variance process was deemed to be the most appropriate and efficient means of
remedying this extremely unique situation.
Future Development of Lots 4 and 5
There is no development proposed at this time on Lots 4 or 5. With approval of this
variance request the development potential of Lots 4 and 5 will be re- established in
accordance with the original intention of the 1978 plat for Casolar. Prior to any
development of these lots, review and approval of the new homes will be required by the
Casolar Del Norte HOA and by the Town of Vail Design Review Board.
It should be noted that while the original plans for Lots 4 and 5 included one single
family residence of 1,690 SF and one duplex of 3,380 SF (for a total of 5,070 SF),
development proposed by the applicant is for single family dwelling units on each lot
with each dwelling unit being allowed up to 2,535 SF of GRFA (splitting the allowable
5,070SF between the two units).
Density Control Variance Request
Casolar Vail Lots 4 and 5
Alternatives to Proposed Review Process
The goal of the applicant is to re- establish the development rights for Lots 4 and 5 in
accordance with the original intentions of the Casolar Vail plat. The variance process is
in place, in part to address "exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions
applicable to the site of the variance that do not apply generally to other properties ". The
situation with Lots 4 and 5 would certainly qualify as an exceptional or extraordinary
circumstance.
Other alternatives considered for resolving this situation included:
• Special Development District
The SDD process could be used to increase allowable development potential at
Casolar Vail. However, given all factors involved this process would be
unnecessarily burdensome.
Re -zone to Medium Density Residential (MDMF)
Re- zoning to MDMF would allow 9 units per acre and create development
potential for Lots 4 and 5. However, this re- zoning would also increase allowable
GRFA to 44 SF per 100 SF of buildable area, a 22% increase over existing. This
overall increase to development potential would likely create other unintended
consequences.
• Code Amendment
The RC district could be amended in order to allow for more units per acre than
currently provided. This amendment would affect many other properties and as
such was not considered a viable way to address this situation.
The variance process would clearly be the most efficient and appropriate avenue for
resolving this situation.
Evaluation of Variance Review Criteria
Factors to be Considered
The Planning Commission shall consider the following factors with respect to the
requested variance:
1. The relationship of the requested variance to other existing or potential uses and
structures in the vicinity
Response
The variance request would merely re- establish development rights that were
originally intended for these two lots. The proposed reduction from one single -
family and one duplex to two single - family dwellings will serve to improve the
relationship with uses and structures in the vicinity.
Density Control Variance Request
Casolar Vail Lots 4 and
2. The degree to which relief from the strict or literal interpretation and enforcement
of a specified regulation is necessary to achieve compatibility and uniformity of
treatment among sites in the vicinity, or to attain the objectives of this title
without grant of special privilege.
Response
The degree to which relief from the strict or literal interpretation and enforcement
of a specific regulation is no more than what was intended by the original plans
for Casolar and as reflected in the plat approved by the Town in 1978. In fact, the
applicant has proposed a reduction in density from what was originally planned
for the project. The essence of this request is simply to re- establish development
rights that were originally intended for the project.
3. The effect of the requested variance on light and air, distribution of population,
transportation and traffic facilities, public facilities and utilities, and public safety.
Response
Lots 4 and 5 were always intended for residential development. As such no
adverse impacts would be expected on any of the considerations listed above.
4. Such other factors and criteria as the commission deems applicable to the
proposed variance.
Findings
The Planning Commission shall make the following findings before granting a variance:
That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same zone
district.
Response
Circumstance with the development of Casolar Vail and the change that was made
to the density control section of the PA zone district has eliminated all
development potential for Lots 4 and 5. This limitation is grossly inconsistent
with limitations on other properties in the same zone district and within the same
project. Approval of this variance would re- establish development rights
originally established on Lots 4 and 5 and not be a grant of special privilege.
2. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health,
safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the
vicinity.
Response
Density Control Variance Request 7
Casolar Vail Lots 4 and
Lots 4 and 5 were always intended to be developed with single family and duplex
residences, respectively. As such, to re- establish these rights would not be
detrimental to the considerations listed above.
3. That the variance is warranted for one or more of the following reasons:
a. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation
would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary physical hardship
inconsistent with the objectives of this title.
Response
The change to density control approved in 1979 effectively removed
development rights established by the Casolar Vail plat that was approved in
1978. The strict and literal enforcement of this regulation creates a very
significant practical difficulty for the owner of Lots 4 and 5.
b. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable
to the site of the variance that does not apply generally to other properties in
the same zone district.
Response
As outlined in the background section of this narrative, there are clearly
exceptional and extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to
Casolar Vail generally not found on other properties.
c. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation
would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other
properties in the same zone district.
Response
Strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulations
would clearly deprive the owner of Lots 4 and 5 privileges enjoyed by the
owners of other properties in the same zone district and the owners of
properties within the same project.
