PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
Building Construction
There are four different types of buildings which are possible,
the selection depending upon construction bids and insurance
rates. The possible types of buildings are:
a) Frame construction on monolithic concrete slab with T-111
siding, 4zl,2 wood truss roof structure and asphalt shingles'
Exterior color would be earth tones, probably a medium
brown with a dark brown trim. Doors for I0'x 10'and
10'x 20, units would be typical 8' wide x 7t high over-
head type doors while smaller units will have 3r6" wide
metal or flush wood doors. Doors, if not prefinished,
will be painted a burnt orange color'
b) Light weight B inch block on monolithic concrete slab
with wood truss roof structure and asphalt shing}es'
As an alternate, if indicated by insurance costs, the
roof could be metal with steel perlins on a L:I2 pitch'
The exterior bl0ck surface would be filled for water-
proofingandpainted.Colorswouldprobablybeamedium
brown wiLh dark brown trim. Doors would be the same as
described in the paragraph above for wood frame.
c) Metal buildings such as Butler Buildings erected on
, monolithic concrete slab according to manufacturerst
building product for mini-storage. Roof panels are 24
gauge galvanized iron and waII panesl are 26 gauge pre-
finished in an earth tone such as tile red or rustic brown'
Roof pitch is 1:12
d) There is a slight possibility that. portable units will be
installed which will have essentially the same specifi-
cations as the metal building described above except the
units will have their own steel frame and wood f100r.

Buildings would be supported on concrete block or
treated wood timbers and anchored properly against wind
Ioad. Exterior col0rs would be white and brick red.
Lighting
Lighting for aII building types would be low level building
mounted lights place<l at approximately 40 foot intervals
and each having no more than I50 watts. Entry drive lights
will be similar but pole mounted. PoIe mounted light.s would
not exceed 12 feet in height-
Driveways
Drive will initially be gravel surfaced with asphaltic
concreLe added when economically feasible'
Landscaping
There will be landscaping in the form of trees and 1ow growing
shrubs along MeI Ray Road. Existing trees along the front
property line will remain. Screening must be kept to a minimum
to assist in providing security. First phase development will
maintain lawn and existing trees where possible.
Signs
There will be a simple identification sign along Mel Ray Road
and at the rear of the property. of course all signs ' will
comply with countY sign code.
Drainage
The site slopes about 5 feet in 2oo feet to the south and about
2 feeL in 141 feet to the west. The gentle slbpe is sufficient
for good drainage. As shown on the sketch on the following
page final development phase drainage will break alonqr the
east edge of the easterly building and flow toward MeI Ray

Road at not less than a 1.5S grade. The remainder of the site
wi1l drain toward its southwest corner where a drainage ditch
exists. This ditch is paralIel to and a few feet east of the
curb and gutter of the MalI parking area. The ditch flows
south and into a storm drainage pipe. Should the ditch ever
overflow water would be carried in the Mal1 parking lot gutter'
UTILITIES
The proposed development has no requirements for water, sewer,
or gas. During Phse I existing utilities would remain as they
are for the single family residence and mobile home. Electric
reqUirements for mini-Storage are minimal having a normal demand
of less than 3000 watts. A representative of the Glenwood
Springs electric department state that there is more than ample
power available along the westerly property line of the site.
Service would be by overhead service drop wire to a mast on the
building for Phase I and underground from the filst building
to the pole lights and the second building for Phase II.

VARIANCE APPLICATION
INTRODUCTION
A variance is necessary in order to develop a viable mini-
storage facility on the site. The zoning code limits the
height of fences j-n required front yards to 3 feet. For
security purposes a 6 foot high chainlink fence will be needed.
If necessary for security in the future, barbwire will be
added on top.
The second variance required has to do with front yard setback.
Typically the requirement is 25 feet. In this case the street
has a relatively narrow right-of-wdYr 30 feet, so that the
requirement of a 50 foot setback from street centerline governs-
The pros and cons of the issue are discussed later in this
report.
In order to have a well designed, workable mini-storage facility
certain crj-teria are rather well established: proportion of
di-fferent size units, standard building width, convenient (safe)
driving lane width, adequate Iighting and security. In order
to profice for all such design requirements a front yard set-
back of 28 feet from property line is necessary as well as a
seven foot securi-ty fence
rRONT YARD SETBACK
The rationale for a 50 foot setback from street centerline
could be:
a) Street may need to be widened in the future and additional
right-of-way taken.
b) Numerous auto traffic turning movements onto the street
require additional sight distance.

b)
may be other valid reasons for the regulation; however,
are some special circumstances in this situation.
Mel Ray Road does not carry a great amount of traffic-
There is little opportunity for traffic increase in
the future in as much as the land area reinaining available
for additional development is limited.
The proposed use generates an extremely smal.I amount of
traffic.
d) Ingress and egress to and from the subject property is
desi,gned to minj-mize obstruction of traffic flow on Mel
Ray Road.
e) There is 1itt]e foreseeable need for on-street parking
on Me1 Ray Road thus there is no need for future 50 foot
right-of-way.
f) There is considerable precedent in the neighborhood for
less setback. The fotlowing front yard setbacks were
measured to front proPertY line:
Tire shop, 0072 Me1 Ray----- ----14.8 feet
New Firehouse,Me1 Ray--------23 feet
Mobile Home, 0150 Mel Ray----- 7 feet

VARIANCE REQUESTED FOR SETBACK
It j-s respectfully requested that the Board of Adustment find
that:
a) In order for a mini-storage facility to be appropriately
designed it is necessary to allow a 28 foot setback from
the front property line or 43 feet from street center-
line. To require additional setback would create undue
hardship
b) The relief of allowing such setback is consistent with
present and anticipated traffic and other existing'set-
backs in the neighborhood.
c) The circumstances found in review of the application are
not caused by the applicant and are the result of general
conditions along MeI Ray Road and granting of the variance
is the best practical solution
VARIANCE REQUESTED FOR FRONT YARD FENCE
With respect to the request to allow a security fence having a
maximum height of seven feet, the Board of Adjustment finds
that:
a) A variance should be granted for a seven foot maximum
height fence in the front yara. such variance is the
minimum necessary to alleviate a practical problem of
security. Not granting the variance would place undue
hardships upon the owner of said property '
b) Such relj-ef is consistent with the neighborhood zoning
and may be granted without substantial detriment to
the public good.
c) That the use of security fencing is essential to a
mini-storage facility and such requirement has not been
created by the aPPlicant.
