330 Topaz Street Single Family Residence

APPLICATION TYPE:  Pre-Application Mountain Overlay Design Review

PROJECT SUMMARY: The Ketchum Planning and Zoning Commission will hold a public meeting to review the Pre-Application Mountain Overlay Design Review for the proposed construction of a new single-family residence and associated site improvements at 330 Topaz Street, located in the Limited Residential Zone and Mountain Overlay District.

Proposed site improvements include removing existing overhead power lines and installing new underground electric service. The project also includes improvements to the portion of Topaz Street currently used by the City as a turnaround for winter maintenance and snow operations. This turnaround area will be upgraded to comply with Fire Department comments. Site disturbance has been minimized to what is necessary for construction of the proposed residence. The project preserves a number of existing trees and vegetation on the property and includes new landscaping and boulder retaining walls as part of the proposed site improvements.
