TOWN OF SILT MINUTES FOR

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING TUESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 2017, 6:30 P.M.

Call to Order Chair Robinson called the meeting to order at 6:30 p.m. Roll Call Present: Chair Meredith Robinson

Vice Chair Mark Rinehart (arrived 7:12 p.m.) Commissioner Chris Classen Commissioner Joelle Dorsey Commissioner Bob Shivley Alternate Commissioner Eddie Aragon Alternate Commissioner Alex Sanchez

Also present at the meeting was Community Development Director Janet Aluise, Zebulon Roe, Shauna Zelenka, Jeff Zelenka, Doug Williams (& daughter), Brad Claussen, Linda Claussen, Nick Irion, Dana Dalla Betta, Rick Farr, Erica and other members of the public. Pledge of Allegiance At 6:30 p.m., the Commission cited the Pledge of Allegiance. Conflicts of Interest There were no stated conflicts of interest. Tab 2 - Consent Agenda At 6:31 p.m., Commissioner Shivley made a motion to approve the minutes of the November 7, 2017 Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting. Commissioner Classen seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously. Public Comments At 6:32 p.m., Shauna Zelenka and Jeff Zelenka addressed the Commission, stating that the Town of Silt had been cited for an illegal shed, which had impacted both of them negatively. Ms. Zelenka stated that the police department had cited her, when her husband actually owns the home. She stated that it was inappropriate for the Town of Silt to have sixteen pages of code related to shed, and that the first time they were made aware of a problem is when the police department cited them. Mr. Zelenka demanded to know the Community Development Director’s qualifications for doing code enforcement. He stated that he had a hurt wrist, but


the court had only given him eight months to move the shed, and that it would cost him $5,000 to do so. At 6:37 p.m., Zebulon Roe addressed the Commission, stating that the Town had charged him criminally with lack of shed permit and putting the shed in the wrong location, although he might be the fourth owner of the property since the shed was installed. Mr. Roe stated that the Town has arbitrary enforcement, targeting only the Zelenkas and him. He further stated that no one in his subdivision is worried about his shed, and the Town should be worried about crime, not sheds. At 6:42 p.m., Nick Irion addressed the Commission, stating that he was there to show support over the Town’s selective enforcement of sheds. Mr. Irion stated that the Town is acting as a de facto homeowners association, yet they have too few resources to enforce code. At 6:42 p.m., the Commission had the following brief discussion:

• The Community Development Department is a complaint-driven department, and cannot catch all code violations;

• The code should be followed, as it has been in place for years; • The Commission reduced the 10’ rear yard easement in order to help the homeowners

out; • Since staff did code enforcement on the entire subdivision, no one person within Spruce

Meadows was singled out; Chair Robinson called point of order several times when Shauna Zelenka, Jeff Zelenka, Zebulon Roe, and Nick Irion were out of order. She stated that the purpose of the public comment period was for the Commission to take comment, and that there would be a Commissioner discussion at the end of the meeting, if those in attendance wished to remain to discuss. Agenda Changes There were no agenda changes. Tab 3 – Habitat for Humanity Minor Subdivision Sketch Plan for 4 Single-Family Lots Intended for Two Duplexes (4 units) Located at the Southeast Corner of Grand Avenue and 11th Street At 6:43 p.m., Director Aluise presented the staff report for the Habitat for Humanity Minor Subdivision of four single-family lots intended for two duplexes (4 units) located at the southeast corner of Grand Avenue and 11th Street. At 7:09 p.m., the Commission had the following questions/comments of staff:

• Where are the parking spaces for Lots 3 and 6 (southern units) – Staff responded that the carport for each of the units constitutes one - 9’ x 19’ parking space, and the southernmost pavement (18’ wide) constitutes one parking space, again for each of the units;

• Since driveway is narrow, should alley be used? – Staff responded that in order to keep the impermeable surface to a minimum, and to not adversely affect the subdivision to the south, the compromise was struck to put one driveway off Grand Avenue, instead


of continuous pavement to the alley and instead of putting all driveways facing Grand (as in row house design);

• Wastewater service lines are close together, and a private 8” wastewater main may be more helpful;

• How will snow removal be completed? – Staff responded that a Homeowners Association or a driveway maintenance agreement is in order, to deal with parking, replacement of asphalt/concrete, and snow removal;

• Project is good and the Town should support it; • Fire Department should look at the private driveway;

At 7:32 p.m., Chair Robinson opened the public hearing. Mr. Brad Claussen addressed the Commission, stating that the density and parking could affect his eastern adjacent property adversely. At 7:37 p.m., Ms. Linda Claussen addressed the Commission, stating that the density, height of building, parking and character of the project does not fit the neighborhood. At 7:39 p.m., Chair Robinson closed the public hearing, and the Commission had the following additional discussion:

• Parking, building height, and density is allowable by R-3 zoning – Staff stated that construction traffic for the existing duplex build is high right now because Habitat for Humanity has great luck at obtaining volunteers to work on their projects, which will lessen, once the units are built;

• Habitat for Humanity has always built a nice product. At 7:41 p.m., Commissioner Classen made a motion to recommend to the Board of Trustees approval of the Habitat for Humanity Sketch Plan for 4 single-family lots intended for two duplexes (4 units) located at the southeast corner of Grand Avenue and 11th Street, with staff recommendations, plus the recommendation that the plan be given to the fire district for review and comment. Vice Chair Rinehart seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously. Old Business Commissioner Classen requested whether the Town can plant the tree on the old Tim’s Tools parcel, now that the business has closed. Director Aluise stated that she would report back to the Commission with the answer. Chair Robinson stated that the Town would also have to contact the owner regarding the vehicles parked on the property, as it creates an aesthetically displeasing situation. Vice Chair Rinehart stated that there is a car and a mobile food vendor on the empty lot next to Lively Electric. Director Aluise stated that the mobile food vendor has a business license, property owner consent, and health department license, in order to operate; she stated that no property owner may sell more than three vehicles from his/her property in a given year, without a state sales license from the state of Colorado, and that she would check in with the Police Department to see if they have contacted the owner. Vice Chair Rinehart also mentioned that RBW Automotive still had not taken down the two old houses on their properties, as instructed by the Planning & Zoning Commission.


New Business Commissioner Shivley would like to know the Town’s position on net neutrality. Director Aluise stated that she would get that information from the Town Administrator and report back to the Commission. Other Business The Commission discussed the Spruce Meadows shed code enforcement, with the following comments:

• The personal attacks from the audience members are not appreciated; • The Commission cannot allow a few shed owners to defy the code and the easement,

after all the other owners did comply; • Staff does not have the resources to do perfect code enforcement, and even if the

Town hired a code enforcement officer, he/she could not possibly catch all violators; & • Staff sent out two letters, asking for compliance, and then the citations were issued for

violators, so homeowners did have notice. The audience had the following additional questions/comments:

• Only two in Spruce Meadows were cited for illegal sheds; • Since the cost of moving the shed is prohibitive, the Town needs to recognize and

change things; • Another citizen has asked for years for code enforcement on her neighbor, and nothing

has been done; • What was the reason for the setback and easement? – Staff responded: utility, drainage,

viewshed, and fence height requirements; & • Letters from Town were misinterpreted for Homeowner Association letters.

Future Business There was no future business. Commission Comments There were no Commissioner comments. Adjournment At 8:50 p.m. Commissioner Classen made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Commissioner Shivley seconded the motion and the motion carried unanimously.

Maximum Sign Area of Free- Standing Allowed* 6 square feet (Applicant proposes 1 – 30 square feet sign (double-

sided)) Maximum Height (Free-Standing) 5 feet (Applicant requests 7’ to top of sign.) 17.60.130 Structural and legal requirements. Signs and structures for signs shall be designed in conformity with the Uniform Building Code, or any subsequently adopted building code (2009 International Building Code), including but not limited to consideration for wind loads, seismic loads, allowable stresses, materials, and anchorage requirements. Signs within town limits shall also conform to all applicable federal, state, county or other laws. (Staff note: Applicant has applied for a sign permit and a sign exception. The Sign Exception process is the 1st step. Applicant states that the real estate sign will be erected on wooden posts. The applicant’s representative verbally stated to staff that the sign material will be plastic.) 17.60.160 Exceptions – Special review. A. Any person may apply to the board of trustees for an exception to the provisions of this chapter, regarding size, height, location and type of sign permitted. Additionally, an applicant may appeal a decision or interpretation made by the town administrator or his designee of the provisions of this chapter in accordance with Chapter 17.84 of this code. B. An exception may be granted if it will result in a harmonious sign plan, otherwise complies with the intent of this chapter, and is consistent with the following guidelines: 1. Signs shall be limited to the fewest number reasonably necessary to accomplish the purpose for which they are intended. (Staff note: Applicant requests one double-sided freestanding sign, measuring 3 feet by 5 feet, 15 square feet per sign, for a total of 30 square feet. The sign is proposed in the southeastern portion of the property, but no exact location is depicted on the map. Sign shall not be located within the sight distance triangle.) 2. Signs shall be sized appropriately, considering the purpose of the sign, the distance from which it must be viewed, the size of other signs in the vicinity, the amount of total sign area designated for a similar use, the same use and the speed of passing vehicles. Consideration should also be given to the size of the sign in proportion to the building and the site. (Staff note: The subject property is vacant; the applicant hopes the sign is visible from Interstate-70.) 3. The sign’s height shall not negatively detract from the adjacent properties or the surrounding visual corridors. (Staff note: The proposed sign is seven (7) feet tall, as measured from finished grade to the top of the sign.) 4. The sign shall be designed to accommodate the existing topography of the site;



8

(Staff note: Not applicable.) 5. The sign shall not substantially obscure any part of another sign designed for a separate use, whether on the same property or on an adjacent property; (Staff note: Proposed signs will not obscure other signs in the future.) 17.60.180 Total Sign Area – All Commercial Businesses. A. The total area of all signs pertaining to any one business (the “total sign area”) shall not exceed three-fourths of a square foot of sign area for each linear foot of occupied building frontage as determined by measuring the length of the main entrance side of the business(es). The maximum total sign area allowed for any one business shall be three hundred square feet. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the area of directory signs shall not be included in the total sign area. (Staff note: Not applicable, as property is vacant.) 1. Buildings on Corner Lots. The total sign area applicable to buildings on corner lots shall be calculated by measuring only the main entrance frontage of such building. The total sign area allowed on any one street frontage may be transferred to another street frontage provided the total sign area on any one street frontage does not exceed three-fourths of a square foot for each linear foot of building frontage on which it is displayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total sign area for all signs on the building shall not exceed the maximum total sign area, or three hundred square feet. When a sign is located at the intersection of two exterior walls of a building frontage and is situated at an angle so as to be visible from both streets on the corner of both frontages, such sign shall not exceed the maximum area allowed for the shortest of any frontage of the building; (Staff note: Not applicable, as property is vacant.) IV. Overview The proposed real estate double-sided sign appears adequately sized and is not objectionable. V. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Planning & Zoning Commission approve this sign exception for the real estate sign in the southeastern portion of the property, with the following conditions: 1) That all statements made by the applicant both in the application and in hearings before the Planning &

Zoning Commission be considered conditions of approval unless modified in the following recommendations:

2) That the applicant locates the proposed sign outside of the sight distance triangle;

3) That the applicant pays all normal costs for the review of this application, including planning, legal and

engineering fees, prior to installation of any sign; & 4) That the applicant submits sign permit/exception applications for any future signs on the property prior

to installation of signs on property.
