R. Architectural Design Standards
1. Design Goal. To create and sustain a high quality project, which utilizes
modern building methods and materials to provide conformance with the
western rural community appearance.
2. Edwards Medical Center Theme - Phase One (Building A) of the Edwards
Medical Center development will be the principal guide for design matters
and will set the design theme, palette of materials and level of quality of
construction to follow.
3. Design Materials - The design of Phase One will conform to a rural
western motif. Specifically, the buildings will reflect those features of
smaller scaled commercial and residential structures that are common to a
rural setting in the western states. Building floor areas are planned to
reduce the mass of the buildings by breaking up the spaces into smaller
pieces that give the building interest and human scale. Breaking the
building facade into shorter lengths will help in reducing the overall mass of
the buildings, particularly with the larger Building B. Thus, excessive
building height and length are avoided and horizontal lines are emphasized.
Rooflines gently slope and turn to enclose a larger ground floor area and to
create a porch-like entry canopy. Individual window openings are
vertically proportioned and grouped to recall original western buildings of
business and residential use. Construction detailing is simple and strong.
The exterior of the buildings will have rough-sawn wood or similar
materials on the lower portions and stucco at the upper walls of the inset
windows and gables. Natural stone may be used as accent material. The
windows will be trimmed in either wood or stucco and the lintels of the
windows will be emphasized. The windows will be made of metal and will
be selected to allow for natural ventilation. Wood columns will support the
entry porch and canopy. The heavy timber wood truss system ofthe
canopy will be reflected in the railings between the support columns. The
roofing material will be a rough-textured fiberglass shingle.

Overall, the buildings will be a reflection of the natural materials and
rugged landscape that is their inspiration. Shade and shadow will in large
part define the fonns of these earthtone structures along with the
opportunity for the subtle use of color in selected details.
4. Explanation of Building Height
a. Maximum height measured to peak of roof ridgeline.
b. Architectural or mechanical features, which are located at least 25
feet from any building edge, may exceed the height limit by a
maximum of 10 feet.
5. Specific Design Controls
a. Buildings A, B, and C
i) All sides will be finished in a manner similar to and
consistent with the principal front.
ii) Exterior materials and textures will be varied to be both
consistent with the design theme and to eliminate uniform
planer facades.
iii) At least 20% ofthe surface of any facade will be either
recessed or projected outward a minimum of2 feet.
b. Buildings facing Beard Creek Road
i) Shift vertical or horizontal alignment of walls. Structures
greater than 120 feet in length will provide a shift in wall
alignment so that no greater than 75% of the building facade
appears unbroken. Each shift shall be either a 5 foot change
in building facade alignment or 5 foot change in roofline
height or a combination change in wall alignment and roof
line totaling 5 feet.

ii) Structures exceeding 160 feet in length will provide a shift
at least every 120 feet, which will be a 15 foot facade and/or
roofline shift.
If within any given 160 foot horizontal section, the exterior
wall contains windows or variations such as entrances,
cantilever, structural or architectural protrusions or other
similar changes of a minimum of 3 feet, no changes in
direction will be required.
c. Glass Elements
i) The use of highly reflective (i.e., mirrored) glass will be
limited to 10% of the building surface and used only for
special detailing effect.
ii) Place, size and shape of openings will be consistent with
other design elements. Exterior doors on public frontages
will be consistent with other facade elements in design
character and materials.
ill) Entries will be emphasized by using signs, awnings, changes
in pavement materials, landscaping, and/or recesses.
d. Roof Treatment
i) Visibility of roof mounted equipment will be minimized.
ii) Roof mounted equipment will be screened with parapets or
architectural details.
ill) Equipment located on the roof will be consolidated to
reduce clutter.
iv) Roof mounted equipment will be painted with a color
compatible with other roof materials or structures.

S. Employee Housing
1. Thirty-four (34) bedrooms with spaces for forty-two (42) persons located
at the Tames in Beaver Creek.
2. No additional employee or affordable housing is required.
T. Phasing Plan
The entire project is being planned at this time as a single, unified entity
to ensure the continuity of the design and architecture for all phases.
The project is anticipated to be implemented over a twenty (20) year
period in ~ix (6) phases. This phasing will allow the most immediate
needs to be completed at the initial stage and the remaining needs to be
constructed as requirements become more critical and the funds are
available. The projected phasing and construction schedule is estimated
as follows:
1. Phase 1 - Building A (Complete)
a. Uses Approximate Size
Doctor's Offices 6,000 sq. ft.
Retail Pharmacy 1,000 sq. ft.
EagleCare Clinic 2,000 sq. ft.
Administrative Office 15,000 sq. ft.
Physical Therapy 1,600 sq. ft.
Storage,~echanical 4.400 sq. ft.
Total 30,000 sq. ft.
b. Projected Date of Construction - Completed

U. Final Plat
An approved final plat is required for each phase or combination of phases prior
to the issuance of a building permit or the commencement of any construction
activity for that phase or phases of the development. Prior to approval of each
final plat, the applicant will obtain approval ofthe County Engineer for all
engineering plans and otherwise demonstrate conformance with the applicable
