PROJECT NARRATIVE
This narrative on this 13th day of June in the year of 2014 for the following project: 4289 Nugget
Lane, Vail CO 81658
Title of Work: Exterior deck & shed extension
Narrative:
Upon review of the town of Vail zoning map and in coordination with Joe Batcheller 4289
Nugget Lane East is a duplex constructed on a single family lot. There is a 15’ setback on the
existing adjoining party wall. We are proposing to increase the deck by 24 sf and the shed by 37
SF. Both the existing deck and existing shed are within the 15’ setback line of the home. The
existing site constraints due to the setback are preventing us from moving forward on the deck
approval. We are requesting a variance to build within the setback at the adjoining duplex wall.
The site coverage is currently over the allowable amount. Allowable site coverage of the site is
869 sf. The existing site coverage is 1086 sf. Proposed GRFA is 1129 sf. The structure is already
217 sf over the allowed site coverage. This project would make the structure 260 sf over the
allowed site coverage. Additional site coverage is needed for the Kennedy’s to secure their
personal property such as bicycles, yard maintenance, equipment and other miscellaneous
equipment that would be an eye sore on the neighboring units as well as deteriorate their
belongings..
Additionally the deck was originally designed at the proposed extension and a previous owner
cut back the deck to increase daylight in the downstairs area. We are proposing to increase the
deck to its original size which matches the neighbors existing deck.
One additional note. A site variance may have been approved for the build-out of the
home/duplex due to the extenuating circumstances of the lots size. The 15’ setback would have
left the home with only 11’-2 ½” of width to work with on the footprint. See the attached plan
for clarification, GFRA analysis and site coverage analysis.
There are no roof overhangs of 4’-0” or more.
