A request for a final review of a variance from Sections 12-6C-6, Setbacks, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, Vail Town Code, to allow for a fifty (50) square foot GRFA addition encroaching up to six (6) feet into the required fifteen (15) foot rear setback, located at 3030 Booth Creek Drive/Lot 5, Block 4, Vail Village Filing 11, and setting forth details in regard thereto. (PEC150026) Applicant: Morning Dew Capital, represented by Krueger Architecture & Design Planner: Jonathan Spence Action: Approve with conditions Motion: Cleveland Second: Rediker Vote: 7-0 Conditions: 1. Approval of this variance is contingent upon the applicant obtaining Town of Vail design review approval for this proposal. 2. This approval does in no way authorize the use of the adjacent Town -owned Streamtract for any purpose including construction staging. No mowing, removal of vegetation, including willows, or building/development of any kind shall be permitted on the Streamtract property. Community Development Planner Jonathan Spence made a presentation as per staff memorandum and gave a brief history of the construction of the residence in 1973/1974 and the historical setback requirements. Commissioner Pratt requested clarification that this house was originally built prior to the change in setback from 10 feet to 15 feet and that this house was pre-existing to this change. Spence confirmed that this house was originally built when the setback requirement was 10 feet. Commissioner Lockman inquired about the requested GRFA as it does not match the amount listed in the encroachment. Spence clarified that the two do not match, but that the 50 square feet is actually the amount of the encroachment and not the total requested new GRFA. Commissioner Rediker inquired about exhibit A and where the exact location of the infill is located and how far this encroaches into the 50 foot streamtract. Spence indicated that this is the southeastern corner of the residence and that none of this encroaches into the streamtract. Applicant Representative, Karl Krueger, Kruger Architecture & Design indicated that they are in agreement with the presentation by Jonathan Spence and also introduced the owner of the property Tom Hackett. Mr. Hackett indicated that he is in fact the owner of the parcel listed under Morning Dew Capital. Commissioner Rediker inquired as to the length of time Mr. Hackett has owned the property and whether or not there is currently vegetation along the streambank. He also asked if the owner had any current plans to modify this area. Mr. Hackett stated that he has owned the property for approximately 2'/2 weeks. Currently there is vegetation along the streambank and it is intended to be left alone. Spence clarified that this is town owned streamtract and is a great example of a property not making any improvements to this streamtract. Commissioner Pratt clarified why the questions regarding streamtract were important to the commission. Commissioner Cleveland asked Spence if there is any reason to add a condition regarding streamtract to the application. Spence was requested to add this condition to every property that is contiguous to the streamtract. Commissioner Cleveland concurred with the requested condition. Commissioner Martin inquired as to how the construction on the back side of the house would take place and if there was any need for large equipment. Krueger responded that there is a possibility that a small excavator may need to be brought in for the excavation. Commissioner Pratt opened the floor to the commissioners for comments. Commissioner Gillette agrees with staff recommendations. Commissioner Martin agrees with staff recommendations and believes the application meets the requirements of the variance. Commissioner Rediker stated that the need for variance is very minor in nature and fits within the criteria for the variance as indicated by staff recommendation. Commissioner Cleveland agrees with staff recommendations and construction does not extend beyond the current footprint. Agrees that this application meets the criteria. Commissioner Hansen supports staff recommendation on this application. Commissioner Lockman agrees with staff recommendation and that this application meets the criteria of the variance. Commissioner Pratt agrees with staff recommendation and believes that because the house was built prior to the change in setback that this variance is appropriate. 3.

(PEC150026) Applicant: Morning Dew Capital, represented by Krueger Architecture & Design Planner: Jonathan Spence I. SUMMARY The applicant, Morning Dew Capital, represented by Krueger Architecture & Design, is requesting a setback variance to allow for an addition into the rear setback area at 3030 Booth Creek Drive. Based upon Staff's review of the criteria outlined in Section VII of this memorandum and the evidence and testimony presented, the Community Development Department recommends approval, conditions, of this application, subject to the findings noted in Section VIII of this memorandum. A vicinity map (Attachment A), photographs (Attachment B) the applicants' request (Attachment C), and proposed architectural plans (Attachment D) are attached for review. II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST The applicant, Morning Dew Capital, represented by Krueger Architecture & Design, is requesting a setback variance to allow for an addition into the rear setback area at 3030 Booth Creek Drive. The subject property is a two-story single family home originally built as a duplex in 1973 and converted to a single family in 1987. The property is located in the Two -Family Residential (R) Zone District. The applicant is proposing to infill under an existing second floor cantilevered space. The infill is within the footprint of the existing home, is within allowable GRFA and will not increase site coverage. The infill is approximately 50 square feet and encroaches into the rear setback at the same distance as the existing structure. Please see sheets A1.1 and A2.1 of the included plan set (Attachment 4) dated 08-11-2015. The infill generating the variance request is one component of a larger remodel project that includes a new single car garage, additional living space over the existing two car garage and changes to the windows and siding materials. The property is located adjacent to Town owned streamtract and is not impacted by either the 100 -year flood plain or the 50' watercourse setback from Gore Creek. BACKGROUND The Vail Village Filing 11 subdivision was approved by the Eagle County Commissioners and recorded in 1971. The property was annexed into the Town of Vail in 1972. The residence was approved by the Town of Vail and constructed in 1973 as a duplex. At that time, the required side setback was 10' in the two-family Residential (R) Zone District and the home was constructed 9.3' from the south (rear) property line and 8.5' and 9.3' from the east and west side property lines, respectively. Subsequent to the construction of the home, Ordinance No. 50, Series 1978, increased the required side setback in the Two -Family Residential (R) Zone District to 15'. This ordinance increased setback requirements in all residential zone districts existing at that time. IV. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS Staff believes that following provisions of the Vail Land Use Plan and the Vail Town Code are relevant to the review of this proposal: Vail Land Use Plan (in part) CHAPTER II: LAND USE PLAN GOALS / POLICIES (in part) The goals articulated here reflect the desires of the citizenry as expressed through the series of public meetings that were held throughout the project. A set of initial goals were developed which were then substantially revised after different types of opinions were brought out in the second meeting. The goal statements were developed to reflect a general consensus once the public had had the opportunity to reflect on the concepts and ideas initially presented. The goal statements were then revised through the review process with the Task Force, the Planning and Environmental Commission and Town Council and now represent policy guidelines in the review process for new development proposals. These goal statements should be used in conjunction with the adopted Land Use Plan map, in the evaluation of any development proposal. The goal statements which are reflected in the design of the proposed Plan are as follows: General Growth / Development 1.1. Vail should continue to grow in a controlled environment, maintaining a balance between residential, commercial and recreational uses to serve both the visitor and the permanent resident. 1.2. The quality of the environment including air, water and other natural resources should be protected as the Town grows. 1.3. The quality of development should be maintained and upgraded whenever possible. 1.4. The original theme of the old Village Core should be carried into new development in the Village Core through continued implementation of the Urban Design Guide Plan. 1.5. Commercial strip development of the Valley should be avoided. 1.6. Development proposals on the hillsides should be evaluated on a case by case basis. Limited development maybe permitted for some low intensity uses in areas that are not highly visible from the Valley floor. New projects should be carefully controlled and developed with sensitivity to the environment. 1.7. New subdivisions should not be permitted in high geologic hazard areas. 1.8. Recreational and public facility development on National Forest lands may be permitted where no high hazards exist if: a. Community objectives are met as articulated in the Comprehensive Plan. b. The parcel is adjacent to the Town boundaries, with good access. c. The affected neighborhood can be involved in the decision-making process. 1.9. The existing condition and use of National Forest Land (USFS) which is exchanged, sold, or otherwise falls into private ownership should remain unchanged. A change in the existing condition and use may be considered if the change substantially complies with the Vail Comprehensive Plan and achieves a compelling public benefit which furthers the public interest, as determined by the Town Council. 1.10. Development of Town owned lands by the Town of Vail (other than parks and open space) may be permitted where no high hazards exist, if such development is for public use. 1. 11. Town owned lands shall not be sold to a private entity, long term leased to a private entity or converted to a private use without a public hearing process. 1.12. Vail should accommodate most of the additional growth in existing developed areas (infill areas). 1.13. Vail recognizes its stream tract as being a desirable land feature as well as its potential for public use. 5. Residential 5.1. Additional residential growth should continue to occur primarily in existing, platted areas and as appropriate in new areas where high hazards do not exist. 5.2. Quality time share units should be accommodated to help keep occupancy rates up. 5.3. Affordable employee housing should be made available through private efforts, assisted by limited incentives, provided by the Town of Vail, with appropriate restrictions. 5.4. Residential growth should keep pace with the market place demands for a full range of housing types. 5.5. The existing employee housing base should be preserved and upgraded. Additional employee housing needs should be accommodated at varied sites throughout the community. CHAPTER VI, SECTION 4, PROPOSED LAND USE CATEGORIES (in part) LDR Low Density Residential This category includes single-family detached homes and two-family dwelling units. Density of development within this category would typically not exceed 3 structures per buildable acres. Also within this area would be private recreation facilities such as tennis courts, swimming pools and club houses for the use of residents of the area. Institutional /public uses permitted would include churches, fire stations, and parks and open space related facilities. Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code (in part) ARTICLE 12-6C: TWO-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL (R) DISTRICT (in part) 12-6C-1: The two-family residential district is intended to provide sites for low density single-family or two-family residential uses, together with such public facilities as may be appropriately located in the same zone district. The two-family residential district is intended to ensure adequate light, air, privacy and open space for each dwelling, commensurate with single-family and two-family occupancy, and to maintain the desirable residential qualities of such sites by establishing appropriate site development standards. 12-6C-6. Setbacks. In the R district, the minimum front setback shall be twenty feet (20), the minimum side setback shall be fifteen feet (15), and the minimum rear setback shall be fifteen feet (15). CHAPTER 12-17. VARIANCES (in part) 12-17-1. Purpose. A. Reasons for Seeking Variance. In order to prevent or to lessen such practical difficulties and unnecessary physical hardships inconsistent with the objectives of this title as would result from strict or literal interpretation and enforcement, variances from certain regulations may be granted. A practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship may result from the size, shape, or dimensions of a site or the location of existing structures thereon; from topographic or physical conditions on the site or in the immediate vicinity; or from other physical limitations, street locations or conditions in the immediate vicinity. Cost or inconvenience to the applicant of strict or literal compliance with a regulation shall not be a reason for granting a variance. V.

SURROUNDING LAND USES AND ZONING Existing Use North: 1-70 ROW South: Streamtract East: Single-family Residential West: Single-family Residential VII. REVIEW CRITERIA Zoning District None Natural Area Preservation District Two-family Residential District Two-family Residential District The review criteria for a variance request are prescribed in Chapter 12-17, Variances, Vail Town Code. 1. The relationship of the requested variance to other existing or potential uses and structures in the vicinity. The subject property, Lot 5, is located within a residential development bordered on the east and west by other single family homes and on the south by Town owned Streamtract. The proposed 50 square foot addition would occur on the first story under an existing, cantilevered, second story space. The addition will be completely within the existing building footprint and will not increase site coverage nor diminish landscape area. The addition is designed to blend seamlessly into the existing structure architecturally upon the completion of the project and will have little effect on the perceived mass and scale of the building Therefore, Staff believes this proposal will not negatively affect the other existing or potential uses and structures in the vicinity in comparison to existing conditions. 2. The degree to which relief from the strict and literal interpretation and enforcement of a specified regulation is necessary to achieve compatibility and uniformity of treatment among sites in the vicinity or to attain the objectives of this title without a grant of special privilege. The original home was constructed within the Town of Vail in 1973 under the Two-family Residential (R) Zone District regulations. The setback regulations at that time required a 10 foot side setback that the building design and construction generally complied with. The home subsequently became legal nonconforming in 1978 when the side setback was increased in the Two-family Residential (R) Zone District to 15 feet. Property owners in the vicinity whose original homes were built prior to 1978, but meeting the revised 15 feet setback regulation, are able to pursue building additions and design modifications utilizing the existing footprint and foundation. Unlike other properties in the vicinity, a variance is necessary to pursue similar building improvements on the subject property. In contrast to demo/rebuild where compliance with today's standards are required and expected, the circumstances related to this property, namely the existing construction in tandem with the change in the regulation, warrant relief. The proposed infill will improve the functionality and value of the home, an upgrade supported by Land Use Plan Goal 1.3. Staff believes the proposed variance is consistent with the goals of the Town of Vail Land Use Plan and purposes of the Two-family Residential District as identified in Section IV of this memorandum. Therefore, Staff believes the proposed relief from the setback regulations is necessary to achieve compatibility and uniformity of treatment among sites in the vicinity and to attain the objectives of this title without a grant of special privilege. 3. The effect of the requested variance on light and air, distribution of population, transportation and traffic facilities, public facilities and utilities, and public safety. The proposed variance will facilitate an addition in the rear setback area that will not alter population; will not increase the required number of parking spaces; will not affect any existing transportation or traffic facilities, public facilities, or utilities; and will not affect public safety in comparison to existing conditions. Therefore, Staff believes the proposed variance conforms to this criterion. 4. Such other factors and criteria as the commission deems applicable to the proposed variance. VIII. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Development Department recommends approval, conditions, a variance from Sections 12-6C-6, Setbacks, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, Vail Town Code, to allow for a fifty (50) square foot GRFA addition encroaching up to six (6) feet into the required fifteen (15) foot rear setback, located at 3030 Booth Creek Drive/Lot 5, Block 3, Vail Village Filing 11, and setting forth details in regard thereto. This recommendation is based upon the review of the criteria outlined in Section VII of this memorandum and the evidence and testimony presented. Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this variance request, the Community Development Department recommends the Commission pass the following motion: "The Planning and Environmental Commission approves the applicants'request for a variance from Section 12-6C-6, Setbacks, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, Vail Town Code, to allow for an addition within the rear setback area, located at 3030 Booth Creek Drive, Nail Village Filing 11, Lot 5, Block 3, and setting forth details in regard thereto" Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this variance request, the Community Development Department recommends the Commission applies the following conditions: 1. Approval of this variance is contingent upon the applicant obtaining Town of Vail design review approval for this proposal. 2. This approval does in no way authorize the use of the adjacent Town -owned Streamtract for any purpose including construction staging. No mowing, removal of vegetation, including willows, or building/development of any kind shall be permitted on the Streamtract property. Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this variance request, the Community Development Department recommends the Commission makes the following findings: 'Based upon a review of Section Vll of the August 24, 2015 staff memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission, and the evidence and testimony presented, the Planning and Environmental Commission finds.- 1. inds. 1. The granting of this variance will not constitute a granting of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the Two-family Residential District. 2. The granting of this variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 3. This variance is warranted for the following reasons.- a. easons. a. The strict literal interpretation or enforcement of the specified regulation will result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the objectives of Title 12, Zoning Regulations, Vail Town Code. b. There are exceptions or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the same site of the variance that do not apply generally to other properties in the Two-family Residential District. c. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the Two-family Residential District IX.

Kim currently lives in Carbondale, and is looking forward to becoming a full- time Vail resident. Tom and Kim plan to renovate the exterior of the house, and add some additional space to accommodate their family. All additions will be within allowed GRFA, site coverage and setbacks. There are encroachments into the side and rear property setbacks currently. There will be no change to these areas, other than possible window and finish changes. There is one existing encroachment that occurs at the second story, which is open at the first level, except for structural posts that also encroach. Because the stepped back area below makes the space difficult to use, Tom and Kim would like to fill in the area below the existing overhang. This will not increase the extent of the encroachment, and will add approximately 50 sf of GRFA. The measurement from the existing posts to the proposed corner of the new building is approximately 4' on each side. It is a small area, but it is very impactful to the interior. The overall renovation of this house, while only minimally visible from the street and adjacent neighbors, will create a more attractive property, which will benefit the community as a whole. 1. That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same zone district. Other similar variances have been allowed in this area, and there appear to be several encroachments on rear (stream) property lines on this street, so we find that this variance request does not grant special privilege. The Hacketts are dealing with a pre-existing condition that they are trying to improve. 2. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. As this area of the house is at the backside, and is not visible from the street or from either neighbor's house (due to heavy vegetation and orientation), this will not have any impact on the public, traffic flow, light and air, or development objectives of the Town. The encroachment is well removed from the stream setback. The change will be minimally visible from the creek, though it is largely blocked from view by willows along the banks. The change will be visible from afar from the bike path. 3. That the variance is warranted for one or more of the following reasons: a. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the objectives of this title. The proposed addition below the existing encroachment avoids practical difficulty in effectively occupying the house for the Hacketts. The space as currently configured does not work as a bath or bedroom, and the Hacketts would like their bed or bath to be on the creek. b. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the site of the variance that do not apply generally to other properties in the same zone district. c. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same zone district. By the Town of Vail's interpretation of site coverage including any overhangs greater than 4', the current encroachment already constitutes site coverage, so filling in the area below does not add to site coverage. Other properties in the same zone district appear to have encroachments on the rear property line similar to the variance requested.
