Acreage:

Request:

Applicant: 
Daniel W Tilton 
Owner: 
Jerry and Vickie Moyes Family Trust 
Representative: 
Brian Fish, Orcutt Winslow Architects 
ACTIONS 
Planning Hearing Officer Recommendation: The Planning Hearing Officer 
recommended approval.  
Village Planning Committee (VPC) Recommendation:  The Deer Valley Village Planning 
Committee chose not to hear this request. 
DISCUSSION 
Michael Kolejka, representative with Orcutt Winslow Architects, stated that the firm 
designed the previous development on the site.  The previous development was larger 
and denser, with 172,300 square feet and 152 units.  The project was deemed not 
viable by the previous developer and to the current proposal is for a project of reduced 
scale at 139,000 square feet and 106 units.  The new project has a single-story memory 
care facility on the east side, a central community component in the middle and four 
stories of assisted and independent living on the west side of the property.  
Mr. Stranieri stated that no correspondence was received, and the Deer Valley Village 
Planning Committee opted not to hear the case.  He stated that the stipulated elevations 
depicted a monolithic building with no variation in height.  He added that the proposed 
elevations depict an improved variety of materials, variation in roofline, and provides 
shading along the perimeter with multiple architectural features.

FINDINGS 
 
1) The stipulated elevations depicted an approximately 55-foot tall, four-story senior 
living facility with a variety of exterior building materials including stucco and 
stucco molding, brick veneer, various metal finishes, and cut stone details.  
Architectural relief was provided through pop-outs, recesses, patios, and 
canopies.  The proposed conceptual elevations depict an approximately 56-foot 
tall, four-story senior living facility with a more modern aesthetic.  The elevations 
provide a similar level of material diversity including Trespa panels, wood and lap 
siding, corrugated metal, and EIFS panels. The façade employs multiple roof 
lines and styles, pop-outs, recesses, patios and canopies.  The utilization of 
different building heights and rooflines will mitigate the impact of building 
massing to a greater degree than the stipulated elevations.
