This variance allows the residents of Lot 5 to enjoy the use of a two car garage with two exterior parking spaces in front of the garage doors as is the norm for all other residential structures in the vicinity. b. The steepness of the remaining site area (over 40%), the southerly location of the duplex structure and the arbitrary geometrical footprint (double octagon configuration) and the lack of garages justify relief from the strict and literal interpretation of ordinance 12-6C-9 (site coverage) allowing the construction of garages that achieve compatibility and uniformity of treatment among sites in the vicinity without grant of special privilege. C. This variance request has little if any effect on light and air, distribution of population or traffic facilities. It does have a positive effect on flow of traffic through a cul-de-sac which results in a positive effect on public safety. d. This variance complies with adopted Town of Vail planning policies and development objectives in that it removes parked cars from the public right of way on Booth Falls Court. John M.

Box 2007 Avon, Colorado 81620 970.949.9322 fax 970.949.0629 The Variance request is for an additional 498 square feet of site coverage (TOV Ordinance 12-6C-9 - Site Coverage - 20% of lot area) to allow both duplex partners to construct a 600 square feet two car garage in a single detached structure. (TOV DRB separation approval granted on 12/06/2007.) The original construction completed in the early 1970's and remodeled in 1992 did not include garages. Current parking is on the Booth Falls Court cul-de-sac located at least partially in the Town of Vail right of way. Granting of the requested variance will mitigate this parking issue and afford at least 8 parking spaces out of the Town of Vail right of way. The variance will allow the applicants to have garages of similar sizes as specified in town ordinances for garages as enjoyed by most, if not all neighbors in the area. Access to the existing units will be improved on a very steep site with the new partially covered and building code compliant stairway system. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 949-9322 regarding this variance request if there are further question concerns. jerkins, AIA TOWN OF VAIL, COLORADO Statement Statement Number: R070002723 Amount: $500.00 12/17/200701:46 PM Payment Method: Check Init: JS Notation: 2125/JOHN CANON Permit No: PEC070078 Type: PEC - Variance Parcel No: 2101-023-0103-5 Site Address: 3140 BOOTH FALLS CT VAIL Location: 3140 BOOTH FALLS COURT Total Fees: $500.00 This Payment: $500.00 Total ALL Pmts: $500.00 Balance: $0.00 ACCOUNT ITEM LIST: Account Code Description Current Pmts PV 00100003112500 PEC APPLICATION FEES 500.00 05/24/08 00:30 FAX 03 12/14/2097 11:51 9799490629 imr, Pm-;Hl IL(;I meat o_vio 7moox JOINT PROPERTY OWNER WRITTEN APPROVAL LETTER Y, (print name )Ke 1✓1w- ~(;~JS , a point owner of propery located at this letter as written approval of ttre grans dated submrtt:ed to the Town of Vail C,ommwvty wNch have been Deparbmtt for the proposal improvements to be completed at the address notld above.

Scott 303 329 6050 p.2 To: Town of Vail PEC Ref: Cannon/Vickers proposed garage variances The undersigned;who are representative of the Booth Falls Court neighborhood wish to encourage the continued improvement of their neighborhood. With this in mind we support in general terms the building of a garage on the Cannon Vickers property. Although the building of this proposed structure is somewhat oversized for the lot in question and will serve to contribute to the increasing density of the neighborhood, the potential for removing the cumbersome and unsightly parking situation in front of the property goes part way in alleviating our concerns about this new building. As the commission may know or may have been informed by the town planner there are currently four parking spaces assigned to the lot. There are often more than four cars parked in the generally vicinity, many of them illegally on the street. Additionally, Mr. Vickers has lately taken to parking a back-hoe/tractor on the property. There are many days where the current property looks like a heavy equipment rental lot. If the PEC decides to approve the variances requested by Cannon/Vickers, it is the hope of the neighborhood that the variances approved will be contingent on having no equipment parked outside of the new structure. Hopefully such contingencies will be recorded into the proceeding and made part of the approval. As such they would be enforceable by town of Vail. There are other issues including building over utility easements and the lack of planning for snow removal in front of the proposed garage. Perhaps these can be discussed at the meeting or at a subsequent DRB.

(PEC07-0078) Applicant: John Canon and Becky & Ken Vickers, represented by John Perkins, AIA Planner: Nicole Peterson 1. SUMMARY The applicants, John Canon and Becky & Ken Vickers, represented by John Perkins, AIA, are requesting a variance from Section 12-6C-9, Site Coverage, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, to allow for additional site coverage to facilitate construction of a detached garage structure, located at 3140 A and B Booth Falls Court/Lot 5, Block 2, Vail Village 12th Filing. Based upon Staff's review of the criteria evidence and testimony presented, recommends approval, with conditions noted in Section VII of this memorandum. in Section VII of this memorandum and the the Community Development Department stated in section VIII, subject to the findings II. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST On December 5, 2007, the Design Review Board approved a separation request to allow a detached garage structure on the subject site (Vote 4-0-0). The Design Review Board will review the proposed detached garage if the variance request is approved and Staff has added a condition of approval, stated in Section Vlll to that affect. The proposed detached garage design requires a variance to site coverage from the allowed 20% to 23% (Additional 523 square feet of site coverage). Currently, the owners are parking in Town Right-of-Way, which violates Vail Town Code. The proposed detached garage includes 4 enclosed parking spaces (2 per dwelling unit) and is designed to step into the steep hillside adjacent to Booth Falls Court. The proposed driveway off Booth Falls Court is designed to accommodate another 4 outdoor parking spaces, which affords each homeowner a total of 4 off-street parking spaces. There has been concern from the neighbors regarding screening of the proposed outdoor parking spaces. Staff has included a condition of approval, stated in Section VIII, that requires a landscape plan including proposed screening of outdoor parking. The proposed garage is designed to comply with all other zoning requirements. No changes to the existing duplex structure are proposed at this time. However, Staff has included a condition of approval, stated in Section VIII, that requires any existing outdoor storage of trash, equipment or inoperable vehicles shall be moved into the enclosed garage as soon as construction is compete. The proposal is in compliance with all other zoning regulations including GRFA. The GRFA proposed under the garage will function as family rooms and office space. The area shall not be used as separate dwelling units as defined by Vail Town Code. Staff has included a condition of approval, stated in Section VIII, to prevent these spaces from being used as separate dwelling units. A vicinity map (Attachment A), the applicant's request (Attachment B), proposed architectural plans (Attachment C) and photos (Attachment D) are attached for reference. III. BACKGROUND The existing duplex was constructed in 1979. The following design review applications have been approved on site: 1. September 20, 1995 - Separation request for detached garage - not completed 2. June 6, 1992 - Interior remodel 3. May 12, 2005 - Entry enclosure 4. September 3, 2005 - Deck replacement and addition 5. August 31, 1005 - Repaint, stucco and shutters 6. December 5, 2007 - Separation request for detached garage IV. APPLICABLE PLANNING DOCUMENTS TITLE 12: ZONING REGULATIONS 12-2-2: Definitions of words and terms: SITE COVERAGE: The ratio of the total building area of a site to the total area of a site, expressed as a percentage. For the purposes of calculating site coverage, "building area of a site" shall mean that portion of a site occupied by any building, carport, porte- cochere, arcade, and covered or roofed walkway constructed at, below, or above grade as measured from the exterior face of the sheathing of the perimeter walls or supporting columns. For the purposes of this definition, a balcony or deck projecting from a higher elevation may extend over a lower balcony, deck or walkway, and in such case the higher balcony or deck shall not be deemed a roof or covering for the lower balcony, deck or walkway. In addition to the above, building area shall also include any portion of a roof overhang, eaves, or covered stair, covered deck, covered porch, covered terrace or covered patio that extends more than four feet (4) from the exterior face of the perimeter building walls or supporting columns. Section 12-6C-1: Two-family Residential (R) District Purpose 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 district. The two-family district is intended to provide 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. 2 12-6C-9: Two-family Residential (R) District Site Coverage Site coverage shall not exceed twenty percent (2091o) of the total site area. (Ord. 41(1990) § 4: Ord. 19(1976) § 4: Ord. 8(1973) § 3.507) V. VI 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.

CRITERIA AND FINDINGS Variance criteria and findings are established by Section 12-17-6, Vail Town Code, stated below. Staff has responded to each criteria and finding regarding the proposed variance to site coverage to allow a detached garage addition located at 3140 A and B Booth Falls Court. 12-17-6: CRITERIA AND FINDINGS: A. Factors Enumerated: Before acting on a variance application, the planning and environmental commission shall consider the following factors with respect to the requested variance: 1. The relationship of the requested variance to other existing or potential uses and structures in the vicinity. This site is impacted by unique constraints that do not apply generally within the Two-Family Residential District. A steep slope of up to 71% exists on the north side of the site, which hinders the development options for adding enclosed parking. The steep slope, existing placement of the duplex on the south end of the site and the unique octagon shape of the existing duplex where key factors in the Design Review Board's approval of the separation request. The proposal complies with all other zoning regulations including setbacks, height and landscape area. Site coverage is unique in that it is calculated by dividing the total building area on site by the lot area. Most people would not recognize a deviance from site coverage by looking at a property. The lot area of the subject site is smaller than other lots in the neighborhood. Therefore less site coverage is afforded to the subject property compared to some sites in the vicinity. Staff does not believe approval of this variance request will have a significant negative affect on the existing or potential uses and structures in the vicinity, in comparison to existing conditions. 4 2. The degree to which relief from the strict or 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 grant of special privilege. Staff believes that relief from the strict and literal interpretation and enforcement of the site coverage regulations will grant the applicant the relief necessary to achieve the Town's development goal of enclosing parking. On numerous occasions, the Planning and Environmental Commission and the Vail Town Council have determined that variances may be approved to achieve the Town's development goal of enclosing parking. Therefore, Staff does not believe the approval of this request would be a grant of special privilege. Staff believes a four-car garage is the most practical option for the applicant to provide the necessary parking for two dwelling units. Other properties in the neighborhood have 4-car garages including the two adjacent neighbors. The four-car garage allows each dwelling unit, 2 enclosed parking spaces. If the building footprint was reduced by 523 square feet, to come into compliance with site coverage, then the total garage area would be reduced to 677 square feet from the proposed 1,200 square feet. A 677 square foot garage would accommodate only 3 enclosed parking spaces (estimating 200 square feet per parking space). The uneven amount of spaces would lead to unfair accommodations for one of the homeowners. 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. Staff believes the traffic conditions will improve by providing 4 enclosed and 4 outdoor parking spaces outside the public right-of-way. Currently, the applicants park entirely within the public right-of-way. The proposed garage and parking spaces will provide off-street parking, which will improve the traffic flow on Booth Falls Court. Staff does not believe the requested site coverage variance will have a negative effect on light and air, distribution of population, transportation and traffic utilities, public facilities and utilities, or public safety in comparison to existing conditions. 4. Such other factors and criteria as the commission deems applicable to the proposed variance. B. Necessary Findings: The Planning and Environmental Commission shall make the following findings before granting a variance: 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. 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. 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. 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. VIII. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Development Department recommends approval, with conditions, of a variance from Section 12-6C-9, Site Coverage, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, to allow for additional site coverage to facilitate construction of a detached garage structure, located at 3140 A and B Booth Falls Court/Lot 5, Block 2, Vail Village 12th Filing, 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 applicant's request for a variance from Section 12-6C-9, Site Coverage, Vail Town Code, pursuant to Chapter 12-17, Variances, to allow for additional site coverage to facilitate construction of a detached garage structure, located at 3140 A and B Booth Falls Courf/Lot 5, Block 2, Vail Village 12t`' Filing, and setting forth details in regard thereto, subject to the following conditions: 1. This approval shall be contingent upon the applicants obtaining Town of Vail approval of a design review application for the detached garage. 2. Any outdoor parking shall be outside of Vail Town Right-of-Way and in compliance with Vail Town Code. 3. The applicants shall submit, as part of the design review application, a landscape plan including proposed screening of the outdoor parking spaces. 4. The applicants shall move any existing outdoor storage of trash, equipment or inoperable vehicles into the enclosed garage as soon as a Certificate of Occupancy is obtained. 5. The applicant shall sign an affidavit, approved by the Town Attorney and recorded with Eagle County Clerk and Recorder, stating that no rental of the existing or proposed floor area shall take place, before a Certificate of Occupancy is obtained. Should the Planning and Environmental Commission choose to approve this variance request, the Community Development Department recommends the Commission makes the following findings: "The Planning and Environmental Commission finds: 1. The granting of this variance will not constitute a granting of special privilege 6 inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the Two-Family District, based upon the review outlined in Section Vll of the Staff's January 14, 2008 memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission. 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, based upon the review outlined in Section Vll of the Staff's January 14, 2008, memorandum to the Planning and Environmental Commission. 3.

Frontage Rd., West Vail, Co. 81657 Dear Mr. Gibbons I wanted to first thank the board in granting the improvement separation on our property for our up coming project. For the record and to further reiterate to the board. I understand the zoning issues surrounding the separation and that those concerns you all raised were heard and incorporated into our planning going forward. The additional structure if approved and executed is in no way to be considered a separate dwelling unit to be used as rental property or the like. We simply have two young families that are interested in expanding. Also I believe we have some support from our neighbors and to a certain extent the town on getting autos off the street. I am sure during our next meeting we can touch on this again and I am receptive to helping the board reach a comfort level in any way I can. I also understand the symmetry concern of the "duplex garage" and that the Vickers, JMP Architects and myself have already begun to find ways to create an asymmetrical design that is in keeping with our desires and current architectural features. Thank you for helping us understand these issues. The timing was helpful and efficient during this critical schematic phase of design. I look forward to working with the Vail DRB.

The list below was drawn from the PEC approval and/or the owners meeting with Ms. Peterson 4/3/08. Landscape schedule Easements lines drawn back in on site plan (lite dash line seems to have been lost from surveyor to architect). Color rendering south elevation (Nicole will advise if more are necessary). Material selections. Cut sheet/selection on lighting fixtures. Small detail on stair component selections (i.e. wood, open riser etc.). Have surveyor add drainage V pan at street level to show that we are requesting to "tying into existing pan". Delineate snow storage area by dash/line to meet 30% of impervious driveway Snow storage vs. neighbor PEC request to screen vehicles. This is a difficult contradictory issue that we will try and solve with neighbors allowing us plant approved material on prop line or on neighbor property. Basically the screening can interfere with snow storage areas. Recordable affidavit about multi use renting scenarios (i.e. owner in main house and addition used as short/long term rental). Although this will really be due at time of Cert. of Occupancy, Nicole will try and talk to town attorney about providing service. Architect to remove note pertaining to trash storage at "underground bunker" and move to garage on the site plan or put in general notes page. Utility verification approvals. Although we have some approvals and approvals with comments. Those companies not wishing to commit yet want to see the site in post winter. New site plan and or any revisions to site plan will most likely need to be resubmitted to utility companies for approvals. In addition we would like to meet with you next week before I leave the rest of April to discuss critical paths and building macro layout concerns. John F. Canon From: "John F.

This project has also been assigned to Nicole Peterson of the Town of Vail; NPeterson@vailgov.com I am a general contractor and part owner of the enclosed development. My project partner and part owner, Kenny Vickers is in the excavation business. We wish to seek approval on the current design. Portions of the development extend into the utility easements on both sides of the lot. We have done some excavation on the lot in the past and offer the following information. Most of our knowledge of layout is what pertains to our lot. Obviously we will need info on our east and west adjacent neighbors. Gas Service: We believe the gas service is still at the curb as our homes do not run on gas. Telephone Service: We believe the phone runs on the east easement and has a shallow direct burial. We believe this service will be compromised during construction and will have to be rerouted Television Service: We believe the television runs on the east easement and has a shallow direct burial. We believe this service will be compromised during construction and will have to be rerouted. Water and Sanitation Service: We are unsure of the exact location and depth of the water service and if it is split between the two easements and or at the curb. It is our hope that domestic water will be supplied to the addition downstream from the existing improvements' meters. We believe the sewer exits the existing improvements on the south side and flows through the Vail Mountain school property. Because of site conditions, we wish to tap the sewer on the property on the west units side. We understand that this will be a shared sewer and that we will need to prepare recorded documents as such. During our due diligence phase I talked to you, Fred, briefly about this scenario and you preliminarily thought this scenario could be accomplished with legal work. Electrical service: Holy Cross is our current provider. We believe the electricity is contained in the east easement and is metered on the east unit for both units. Our hope is that we can supply the new improvements Please review the enclosures and contact me with any questions/comments or further needs. Any preliminary billable costs on your side would be much appreciated. John F.

Scott 303 329 6050 p.2 To: Town of Vail PEC Ref: Cannon/Vickers proposed garage variances The undersigned;who are representative of the Booth Falls Court neighborhood wish to encourage the continued improvement of their neighborhood. With this in mind we support in general teens the building of a garage on the Cannon Vickers property. Although the building of this proposed structure is somewhat oversized for the lot in question and will serve to contribute to the increasing density of the neighborhood, the potential for removing the cumbersome and unsightly parking situation in front of the property goes part way in alleviating our concerns about this new building. As the commission may know or may have been informed by the town planner there are currently four parking spaces assigned to the lot. There are often more than four cars parked in the generally vicinity, many of them illegally on the street. Additionally, Mr. Vickers has lately taken to parking a back-hoe/tractor on the property. There are many days where the current property looks like a heavy equipment rental lot. If the PEC decides to approve the variances requested by Cannon/Vickers, it is the hope of the neighborhood that the variances approved will be contingent on having no equipment parked outside of the new structure. Hopefully such contingencies will be recorded into the proceeding and made part of the approval. As such they would be enforceable by town of Vail. There are other issues including building over utility easements and the lack of planning for snow removal in front of the proposed garage. Perhaps these can be discussed at the meeting or at a subsequent DRB.
