Tom Braun
ACTIORI REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Review the analysis of the
alternatives and the recommendations of the Planning and Environmental
Commission and staff.
BACKGROUND RATIONALE: The Vail Touvn Council directed staff to evaluate the existing GRFA system and determine whether this is an
effective and appropriate tool for regulating mass and bulk when
compared to other alternatives. The purpose of this work session is to
review the analysis of three alternatives to the existing GRFA policy for
single family, duplex, and primary/secondary type structures only. This
..__n
work session is intended to describe: how to implement each of these
alternatives; what homes might look like under each alternative; and to
identify considerations that would need to be evaluated for each
alternative. On March 10th, the PEC, in a 4-3 vote, recommended
alternative 1 with several conditions. At the April 1st work session, staff
will review the alternatives with Council along with the recommendations
from the PEC and staff. At the evening meeting on April 15th, staff will
ask Council to select a preferred alternative. Once Council decides on a
preferred alternative, staff will begin the implementation process. This could include additional research to answer questions relating to. the
preferred action and would include developing proposed code revisions.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff has three recommendations: 1)
Implement new design guidelines regardless of the preferred alternative;
2) Out of the three alternatives, staff is recommending alternative 3
"eliminate GRFA" and modify site coverage to prevent homes from
becoming significantly larger; 3) If alternative 1 should be chosen, then
staff recommends that it apply only to existing homes built before the
date this policy would go into effect.
