14-10-2 General Compatibility:
A. Structures shall be compatible with existing structures, their surroundings, and with Vail's environment. It
is not to be inferred that buildings must look alike to be compatible. Compatibility can be achieved through the proper consideration of scale, proportions, site planning, landscaping,
materials and colors, and compliance with the guidelines herein contained.
B. Any building site in Vail is likely to have its own unique landforms and features. Whenever possible, these
existing features should be preserved and reinforced by new construction. The objective is to fit the buildings to their sites in a way that leaves the natural landforms and features
intact, treating the buildings as an integral part of the site, rather than as isolated objects at odds with their surroundings. (Ord., 9-21-1999)
14-10-5 Building Materials and Design:
C.
Exterior wall colors should be compatible with the site and surrounding buildings. Natural colors (earth tones found within the Vail area) should be utilized. Primary colors or other
bright colors should be used only as accents and then sparingly such as upon trim or railings. All exterior wall materials must be continued down to finished grade thereby eliminating
unfinished foundation walls.
14-10-6 Residential Development:
A. The purpose of this section is to ensure that residential development be designed in a manner that creates an architecturally
integrated structure with unified site development. Dwelling units and garages shall be designed within a single structure, except as set forth in subsection B of this section, with
the use of unified architectural and landscape design. A single structure shall have common roofs and building walls that create enclosed space substantially above grade. Unified architectural
and landscape design shall include, but not be limited to, the use of compatible building materials, architectural style, scale, roof forms, massing, architectural details, site grading
and landscape materials and features.
