Vail Village View Corridor 1 DRB1 10301 / 15 minutes Warren Final review of a minor exterior alteration (landscaping) 246 East Meadow Drive (Slifer Square)/Part of Tracts B & C, Block 5, Vail Village Filing 1 Applicant: Town of Vail, represented by Gregg Barrie and Todd Oppenheimer ACTION: Denied MOTION: DuBois SECOND: Gillette VOTE: 5-0-0 The Design Review Board (DRB) cited Chapter 12-22, View Corridors, Vail Town Code which contained no provisions for the "maintenance" of view corridors with regard to vegetation. Furthermore, Section 14- 10-3C, Site Planning, Vail Town Code, states the following: "C. Removal of trees, shrubs, and other native vegetation shall be limited to removal of those essential for development of the site, those identified as diseased or those essential for creating defensible space. Mitigation may be required for tree removal." The DRB has consistently used this regulation to prevent the removal of vegetation for the sole purpose of obtaining a view to a landmark (commonly the Gore Range or the ski mountain). The DRB was concerned about allowing the Town to perform an action which is consistently denied for private property owners as this request occurs frequently. The DRB understood the concern of the encroachment of the vegetation on the view corridor and had several suggestions and concerns. There was a concern that the removal of the trees would expose a roof material and a building which might have a negative effect if it became completely exposed. The Board highlighted that the original design intent of Eldon Beck was to limit the view to short distances into the Village and create an element of surprise. It was stated that the trees frame the Covered Bridge and are solely a summer problem, and does this warrant removal. Page 2 The DRB suggested that the Town Council direct staff to prepare amendments to Chapter 12-22, View Corridors, Vail Town Code, to include provisions for "maintenance" of a view corridor with regard to vegetation which established a set of criteria by which an evaluation could be made. It was further suggested that Section 14-10-3C, Site Planning, Vail Town Code, would be improved with the addition of provisions and criteria for the evaluation of the removal of vegetation that may have been improperly cited during original installation and after a number of years has impacted important views. A requirement for replacement should accompany any provision allowing for this. 8.
