A request by East West Hospitality, developer of the Covered Mike Mollica Bridge Building, to proceed through the planning process to allow Peter Dann for the expansion of a private brick paver walkway onto Town of Vail Land. Location: Southwest corner of the Covered Bridge pocket park in Vail Village. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Approve/deny the applicant's request to proceed through the planning process. If approved, the applicant would be authorized to proceed to the Design Review Board, to obtain design approval for a"mini-plaza" adjacent to the residential condominium entrance, located at the northwest corner of the Covered Bridge Building, (see attached site plan). BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The proposed "mini-plaza" would encroach approximately 5' onto Town owned property. This property is one of the Town open-space parcels, and is currently zoned Outdoor Recreation District. Although staff does not believe that the "mini-plaza" would negatively impact the Covered Bridge pocket park, staff believes that the use would be inconsistent with the purpose section of the Outdoor Recreation Zone District. Section 18.33.010-Purpose states: "The Outdoor Recreation District is intended to preserve undeveloped or open-space lands from intensive development while permitting outdoor recreational activities that provide opportunities for active and passive recreation areas, facilities and uses." STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is for denial of the applicant's request to proceed through the planning process. The staff does not believe that the request for a mini-plaza, dedicated solely to private residential use, would be consistent with the purpose section of the Outdoor Recreation Zone District. 4:20 P.M. 4.

ACTIOIV REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Visit site. BACKGROUND RATIONALE: On December 20, 1995, the applicant met with the Design Review Board to request a determination of significant site constraints and the opportunity to separate the duplex structure proposed for Lot 11, Block 1, Vail Village 12th Filing in accordance with Section 18.54.050(I) of the Municipal Code (see attachment 1). Upon review by the DRB, a motion was made to deny the applicant's request since the DRB could not find evidence of significant site constraints. The motion passed unanimously (4-0). A letter from the applicant dated December 29, 1995, appealing the DRB decision, has been attached (see attachment 2). In the applicant's letter, he refers to the intent of the Design Review Guidelines (Section , 18.54.010) as a possible basis for overturning the DRB decision. A copy of Section 18.54.010 from the Municipal Code has bee attached for reference (see attachment 3). STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Upon review of the applicant's separation request, staff recommends that the Town Council uphold the DRB decision of December 20, 1995, of denial. (n staff's opinion, the applicant has not demonstrated the existence of significant site constraints on the lot as required in Section 18.54.050(I) of the Municipal Code. 5:20 P.M. 8. An appeal of the Planning and Environmental Commission's (PEC) denial Randy Stouder of a request for a height variance to allow for a residence, currently under construction, to exceed the 33-foot height limitation for residential structures. The project is located at 1339 Westhaven Circle/Lot 23, Glen Lyon Subdivision (SDD #4). Applicant: Bill Anderson representing Mr. and Mrs. Hovey. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Visit site. BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The application is in the process of constructing a residence on Lot 23, Glen Lyon Subdivision. The Improvement Location Certificate (ILC) submitted by the applicant indicates that sections of three separate roof ridges were constructed at ° heights exceeding the 33-foot height restriction for residential structures. The ridges in question are labeled A, B and C, starting at the lowest of the ridges and going up to the highest. See the attached site plan and elevation drawings. According to the interpolated existing grades provided by Intermountain Engineering (based on the original topographic survey), and the ridge height figures provided by Eagle Valley Surveying (ILC), ridges A, B, and C were constructed a maximum of 8.4 inches above the 33-foot height limitation. The applicant requested that the PEC grant a height variance to retain the roof ridges at the existing, constructed heights. The PEC unanimously denied the requested height variance by a vote of 4-0. They made the finding that granted the requested height variance would be a grant of special privilege to the applicant. STAFF RECOMIVIENDATION: Staff is recommending denial of the applicant's request to overturn the PEC decision. 5:50 P.M. 8. Adjournment. .
