Memo
Project:Vista Bahn Building—Concessions Area Project No: 1408
Date: April 13, 2016
RE: Planning and Environmental Commission
Conditional Use Permit
298 Hanson Ranch Road/ Lot C, Block 2, Vail Village Filing 1
Remarks:
We are submitting the attached drawings dated April 15, 2016 for consideration by the DRB for exterior
modifications of the Vista Bahn Building. The proposed improvements are on the ground level floor facing Hanson
Ranch Road.
The Owner wishes to add an area to provide simple concession selling from a window on Hanson Ranch Road.
No cooking will be part of the area. All cooking will be provided by the restaurant in the building and served warm
to the patrons. Typical items would be breakfast and lunch burritos for the passing skiers from morning to early
afternoon.
The new space will utilize the existing space and enlarge the space by 6 sqft. The new walls will still be under the
existing roof space and within the property. A new aluminum sliding glass window will be added which will match
the color of the existing window located to the west.
An existing planter with approximately 6 sqft of planting area will be removed and relocated west. The new
planting area will be increased to approximately 8 sqft.
In addition, the Owner would like to provide outdoor seating enclosed by a steel barrier similar to the building
adjacent to the west. The railing will be 2"x2" steel posts, top and bottom rails and have steel pickets to match the
pickets on the building raised decks.This use is in similar keeping to the adjacent seating area.
Review Criteria:
1. The new addition and seating area limit the impact to the existing frontage.
The addition does not extend beyond the roof plan which keeps the encroachment to a minimum.
The seating area matches the depth of the existing seating area at the adjacent building. So, the encroachment is
not different than currently located in the area.
2. The intent of the variance is to provide outdoor seating similar to the adjacent building seating area. The
limitations are similar to the adjacent and square footage of the area is less in area.
3. No additional lighting will be added.
No additional structure will be added above the existing roof lines creating additional shadows or effects to
lighting, and building size.
4. No additional Criteria at this point.
Thank you for your consideration
