THE DESIGN REVIEW BOARD RECEIVED AND REVIEWED THE FOLLOWING STAFF
ANALYSIS PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT AND ADOPTS THE STAFF REPORT
AS PART OF THE DESIGN REVIEW BOARD'S FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING
THIS PROPOSAL:
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (adopted May 12, 2026), designates this site as the following:
Village/Community Center
Village and Community Centers are intended to serve as mixed use centers for goods, services and
employment for areas that are removed from downtown Eagle. Uses and residential densities vary
based on location. See the planning area text for a complete description of site specific uses.
B. ZONING CODE PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS
PROPOSAL:
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-1: GENERAL APPLICABILITY:
This article applies to all proposed development located within the design review overlay district
which shall include the entire city limits, and any land annexed into the city after the date of
adoption hereof. Such development includes, but is not limited to, new commercial, industrial,
institutional, office, multi -family residential projects, signs, common areas, subdivision signage,
proposed conversions, proposed changes in land use and/or building use, exterior remodeling or
repainting with a color different than what is existing, exterior restoration, and enlargement or
expansion of existing buildings, signs or sites, and requires the submittal of a design review
application pursuant to this article and fee as prescribed from time to time by the city council.
• Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-7(L): Landscaped Commercial Strips:
1. Landscaped strips shall be provided between all building development and public rights of way
to lend continuity among different architectural styles, screen unsightly views, establish a
pleasing view for motorists, and create a safe and pleasant corridor for pedestrians.
a. The landscaped strip shall be ten feet (10') wide minimum and planted with one shade tree
and ten (10) shrubs for every thirty five feet (35') of street frontage. Two (2) ornamental or
two (2) evergreen trees may be substituted for one shade tree.
C. DISCUSSION:
The applicant is requesting design review approval to construct the commercial buffer between the
commercial lots within Terra View Commercial Subdivision No. 1 and future phases of Terra View
Commercial Subdivision and West Beacon Light Road. A 10-foot wide concrete pathway has been
installed along the entire frontage of Terra View Commercial Subdivision adjacent to West Beacon
Light Road. The applicant is proposing 28 individual Corten steel flower pots located on top of
freestanding sandstone columns and 7 water features with Corten steel flower pots, on top of
sandstone columns within the commercial buffer area planted with seasonal plant mixes. Deciduous
and evergreen trees and shrubs are proposed to be installed within the buffer area between the
individual Corten steel flower pots and water features. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-
7(L)(1)(a), the landscape strip shall be 10-foot wide minimum and planted with one shade tree and
Page 6 of 12

Commercial Buffer Findings DR.docx
10 shrubs for every 35-feet of street frontage. Two ornamental or 2 evergreen trees may be
substituted for one shade tree. The landscape buffer is 2,162-feet in length; therefore, the applicant
is required to provide 61 deciduous trees and 610 shrubs within the commercial landscape buffer.
The applicant is proposing 14 deciduous trees and 112 evergreen trees and 854 shrubs within the
buffer along West Beacon Light Road. The 112 evergreen trees are equivalent to 56 deciduous
trees; therefore, the applicant is proposing what is equivalent to 70 deciduous trees along the
frontage. If the applicant is approved to use 2 evergreen trees for every required shade tree, the
buffer area has 9 more additional trees than what is required. Additionally, the proposed landscape
berm shows 854 shrubs to be planted within the buffer which exceeds the 610 required by code.
Staff defers comment on the proposed landscaping, flower pots, and water features within the
required commercial landscape buffer to the Design Review Board.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
1. The Board reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of this proposed design review application
(DR-2026-54) with regard to the Eagle City Code Title 8, Chapter 2, Article A, DR Design Review
Overlay District, and based upon the information provided with the conditions required herein,
concludes that the proposed design review application is in accordance with the Eagle City Code and
the Eagle Comprehensive Plan.
2. The Board reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of the proposed design review in terms of
Eagle City Code 8-2A-13, "General Standards For Design Review" and has concluded that the
proposed design review:
A. Will function in conformance with the applicable strategies of the Eagle Comprehensive Plan and
is in accordance with the regulations of this code since there are no inconsistencies with the
comprehensive plan and subdivision landscaping is permitted with the approval of a design review
application within the MU-DA (Mixed Use with a development agreement) zoning district;
B. Is of a scale, intensity, and character that is in harmony with existing conforming and planned
development in the vicinity of the site since the proposed commercial buffer landscaping is
designed to complement the general vicinity;
C. Is designed with adequate off street parking facilities in such a way as to not interfere with
ingress/egress to the site and will serve the intended use so as to not cause conflict with adjacent
uses as anticipated within the zoning district — Not applicable for a landscape plan;
D. Will not interfere with the visual character, quality, or appearance of the surrounding area and city,
and where possible, enhance the continuity of thematically common architectural features since the
proposed planter pots and water features match that which already has been installed in previous
phases of the development;
E. Will have facades, features, and other physical improvements that are designed as a whole, when
viewed alone as well as in relationship to surrounding buildings and settings — Not applicable for
a landscape plan;
F. Will not obstruct views and vistas as they pertain to the urban environment and in relation to artistic
considerations since the proposed commercial buffer area will provide a landscape buffer to screen
future commercial buildings and parking;
G. Will provide safe and convenient access to the property for both vehicles and pedestrians through
patterned traffic circulation and connectivity to abutting development — Not applicable for a
landscape plan;
H. Is in the interest of public health, safety, and general welfare promoting a pedestrian friendly and
walkable environment in balance with protecting a viable commercial center in the area since the
10-foot wide multi -use pathway is providing connection from North Palmer Way to North Hamlin
