RE: 5125 Black Bear Lane/Lot 11, Block 2, Gore Creek Subdivision
Dear Mr. Mathias,
My name is Joe Batcheller. I am a Planner for the Town of Vail. I am writing to inform you of
zoning violation which is present on your property located at the above address. It appears as
though your house was painted, but left incomplete on the northeast side under the roof eave.
The violation is in regard to the exterior repainting of the residence without design review
approval. We have no record of a Design Review Board application having been submitted to
allow for the repainting of your house. Pursuant to Section 12-11-3, Design Approval, Vail Town
Code, a design review application shall be submitted and approved prior the exterior alteration
(painting) of a structure.
A. Scope: No person shall commence removal of vegetation, site preparation, building
construction or demolition, dumping of material upon a site, sign erection, exterior
alteration or enlargement of an existing structure, paving, fencing or other improvements
of open space within the corporate limits of the town unless design approval has been
granted as prescribed in this chapter. The addition of plant materials to existing
landscaping, gardening and landscape maintenance shall be exempt from this provision.
B. Violation: It shall be a violation of this chapter and the building permit for any person to
commence, continue or complete work that has not received design approval as
prescribed in this chapter and/or is not in conformity with the plans approved and
authorized by the administrator and/or the design review board and the building official.
The Town requests that you submit an application for design review of the painting of your
house no later than November 30, 2014. Applications can be found on-line at www.vailgov.com.
Please contact me by email at jbatcheller@vailgov.com or by phone at 970-479-2440 should
you have any questions. The Town can work with you if this some additional time is necessary.
Should an application not be submitted by the date above, or an alternatively agreed upon date,
the Town may pursue the issuance of a citation for the violation.
Sincerely,
Joe Batcheller
Planner
Town of Vail
