Background:
Applicant's
Request:
.r:
Gibson Avenue at Neale Street
Specially Planned Area - SPA
11.80 Acres
On October 9, 1979, the Aspen Mountain Park Partnership CAMP),
a corporation which had purchased the Smuggler Trailer Park
with the intention of redevelopment, issued a notice to
tenants that the rents for mobile home spaces were to rise
substantially. In response to that threat the residents
approached the City to petition to be annexed. Following annex-
ation the City began "friendly condemnation" proceedings
against AMP as a means of maintaining the trailer park as a
location of employee housing. Subsequently, it was determi,ned
that such an action would lead to excessive financial exposure
for the City. The City then entered into negotiations with the
owners of the park with t~e following objectives in mind:
- to place the existing tenants of the park in an ownership
position at a reasonable cost;
- to improve the health and safety conditions of the park; and
- to reach a settlement agreement which was as consistent
as possible with existing codes of the City of Aspen.
A settl ement agreement was reached between the City, AMP and
the trailer park Homeowners Association, a copy of which is
attached for your review. The terms of the agreement provide
a financial basis under which AMP agreed to liquidate its
holdings in,the park. AMP agreed to make certain improvements
to the utility and road systems in the park and to make the
spaces available to the present owners of mobile homes at a
price of .$25,000 per space. Following the sale, all units were
to be placed in the employee housing pool via a mechanism
which was not identified. In exchange, the park was to be
permitted to be expanded by 26 additional deed restricted mobile
homes, to be sold at a price not to exceed $70,000. AMP also
was to receive the right to develop 19 free market units on
another site within the City or on land to be annexed to the
City. These 19 units were to be exempted from the GMP through
a code amendment which would need to be enacted. One suggestion
to meet this need is the so called "90:10" provision.
Negotiations between AMP and the Homeowners Association have
resulted in slight revisions to the terms of the agreement.
The applicant is currently requesting conceptual SPA and
subdivision approval to divide the existing park into four
distinct parcels, including the development of 22 new mobile
home units. These units would be deed restricted as employee
housing and be used in the calculation of a 70:30 GMP exemption
for the Pitkin Reserve Subdivision. This latter request
represents 12 of the agreed to 19 free market units resulting
from the Settlement Agreement. Figure 1 illustrates how these
requests fit within the overall planning review process.

Home Park Conceptual Submission
Review
Comments:
The comments received during the review of this application
may be categorized as follows:
1) Basic engineering/design concerns; and
2) Planning process issues.
Each of these areas is addressed in detail below.
- --_..,--~,~-_.._..._.,---~--_..-.-
Basic Engineering Design Concerns
The Engineering ~~partment, in a memorandum dated April 22,
1981, comments that this submission improves significantly
upon previous plans as regards circulation and density.
Nevertheless, they identify numerous deficiencies in the
current proposal. First, the Engineer notes that since
f1either-parcelS'llorC fronts on a public or private street,
it may be necessary for the developer to dedicate a private
access to both parcels. Parcel Bhas been given to the
County in exchange for land involved in the Pitkin Reserve
application.
In a memorandum from the County Housing Office. the Housing
Director indicates that the County would like to give Parcel
B back to AMP in exchange for an easement along the existing
dirt road which is shown through Parcel C. where the appli-
cant now proposes to build new trailers. The areas on either,
side of the road are steeply sloping and to place the new road
in either of these locations would create a highly visible.
broad cuto The Housing Director also suggests that the de-
veloper use Parcel B to construct a multi-family housing
structure rather than the new trailerso
The Planning Office and Engineering Department. in a site
visit with the Housing Director, were shown that the County c
plans for the Smuggler/Silverking area are still formative
in nature but represent,a major effort at solving the over-
all community employee housing problem in this nearby loca-
tion. We feel that it is in the best interests of the en-
tire community not to preclude any options which are currently
being pursued to provide the infrastructure necessary to
meet em!Jloyee housing needs._TJ:te~oad bei.n~Y1~i.<!~re~Lb.L~

Office recommends that the applicant enter into negotiations
with the County to try to resolve this issueo

The second major design concern raised by the Engineer involves
the duplex trailer arrangement proposed by the applicanto The
Bui 1 ding Department comments that thi s arrangement poses pro-
blems in terms of light and ventilation. fire separation and
access and egress. In fact. the existing mobile home code of

approving a duplex trailer arrangemento The Planning Office
therefore recognizes that it will be necessary to process a code
amendment to the mobile home park provisions. based on state and
national standards. by which such trialers may be permitted in

Planning Process
Issues:
Natural Gas states that the present gas lines should be replaced
in the interests of safety. Finally, the Engineer note~ that
drainage needs should be accommodated through drywells ln subse-
quent site plans,
Miscellaneous concerns of the Engineer include:
_ That Parcel E, at 10,020 square feet, is a substandard
lot in the surrounding R-15 zone district and should be
expanded to the 15.000 square foot minimum;
_ That the developer dedicate right-of-way at three loca-
tions to accommodate the needed expansion of both Gibson
Avenue and Spruce Street; and
_ That in order to permit road maintenance and sno~ removal
on City streets the Engineering Department requlres 60
feet of right-of-way, The roads in the Smuggl~r system
are insufficient to permit dedication to the Clty for these
purposes,
------------"..
The Planning Office review of Chapter 14 of the Code,
"Mobile Homes and Mobile Home Parks" uncovered several
issues which must be addressed by the applicant. Section
14-3 sets minimum submission requirements for any expansion
of a mobile home park, These provisions include:
1) Compliance with Planned Unit Development requirements;
2) Submission of a landscaping plan, to include all site
improvements;
3) Description of fire protection facilities and plans;
4) Analysis of traffic impacts, school impacts and
police impacts of the expansion; and
5) Assessment of the community need for the expansion.
The need for this information was uncovered at a very late stage
in the conceptual review process. The Planning Office therefore
felt that in the interests of expediting the conceptual review,
it was appropriate to work with the applicant to determine those
requirements which should be met by the applicant prior to review
___.QLthjs request by Council..-----
The conceptual submission before Council at the present time
does not provide a mechanism by which the existing mobile homes
in the park are to be retained within the employee housing pool.
The City and County Housing Directors are currently formulating
an approach which would place restricttons on the eligibtl ity of
the buyer on resale, rather than the price of the units. This
mechanism is necessary because the trailers were bought at free
market rates while the land price is controlled by the settlement.
Since no low interest financing appears to be available, it
would be unfair to the residents to restrict the units to tradi-
tional low, moderate or middle income guidelines. Until the
details of this mechani.sm are finalized, the Planning Office
recommends that you exclude considerati,on of this issue from
your debate.
Section 14-6 of the Code sets standards for mobile home parks.
Since this park is more than five years old, itshpuTqno-
longer be reviewed under the minimum standards for existing
parks but instead should meet "new standards for existing parks"
which represent a more stringent set of review criteria, In
fact, that portion of the park subdivided for the new trailers
should meet the most strlngent"new standards for new parks",
The Buil ding Department comments concerning spaci ng, encroach-
ments,setbacks, recreational vehicles and parking should all
be viewed in light of these standards, Furthermore, the exist.;

Planning
Office
Recommendations:
while the new park must reserve 20% of its area for recreation.
The Planning Office will need better data to determine com-
pliance with these standards.
Finally, two issues emerged during the review of this applica-
tion before P & Z. First, there was a concern that at least
one trailer did not front upon the internal roadway system
and thereby would have to directly use Gibson Avenue. Second,
P & Z did not feel that the two proposed access/egress points on
Spruce Street were suffi ci ent to meet the circul ati on needs of
the residents and recommended that the applicant consider
revising the site plan to show a third entrance and exit location.
The Planning Office recommends that you approve the applicant's
request for conceptual subdivision, subject to the following
condi ti ons :
1) The applicant's revision of the site plan to insure
that parcels Band C front on a public or private street;
2) The applicant's agreement to enter into negotiations
with the County to resolve the issue of the need for a
road in Parcel C;
3) The applicant's agreement to upgrade the sewage system;
to meet the standards of the Aspen Metro Sanitation
Di stri ct;
4) The applicant's agreement to bring the electrical service
throughout the park up to Code specifications, meeting
all comments included in the Electrical Inspector's
memorandum"dated April 28, 1981.
5) The applicant's agreement to replace all gas lines deemed
unsafe by Rocky Mountai n Natural Gas;
6) The applicant's revision of the site plan to designate
drywe 11 s to accommodate drainage needs;
7) The applicant's revision of the site plan to expand
parcel E to a minimum of 15,000 square feet;
8. The applicant's recognition that due to insufficient
road right-of-way, all streets will need to be pri-
vately maintained, including snow removal;

\ .-.------.
9) The applicant's dedication of right-of-way at the loca-
tions identified by the Engineering Department to accom-
modate the expansion of Gibson Avenue and Spruce Street;
10) The app 1 i cant's agreement to provi de a 11 ,infol1111ati on re-
quired by Section 14-3 of the Code prior to review of
the conceptual submi ssi on by City Counci 1 ;
11) The applicant's agreement that since insufficient housing
price information has been provided to the Planning Office
that any conceptual approval by P & Z does not necessarily
include approval of the employee housing restrictions pro-
posed by the applicant;
12) The applicant's agreement that parcel A meet the review
criteria entitled "New Standards for Existing Parks" while
parcels C and D (and B if it is developed with mobile
homes) meet the review criteria entitlpd "New S.:t_an.dards ..-
for New Parks", to the satisfaction of the Building and
Engineering Departments; ,

13) The applicant's revision of the site plan so that all
trailer units have frontage on and direct access to
the internal roadway network; and
14) The applicant's agreement to continue to consider the
design of a third access/egress point for the trailer
park from the most suitable location.
P & Z Action: At a special meeting on May 12, 1981, the Aspen P & Z concurred
with the Planning Office recommendation, including all fourteen
conditions listed above. The applicant submitted a memorandum
at that meeting, attached for your review, agreeing to the
twelve conditions listed at that ti,me. The applicant has since
agreed to the remaining two conditions numbered thirteen and
fourteen.
Council
Action:
Should you concur with the recommendation of the Planning Office
and P & Z the appropriate motion is as follows: '
"I move to approve the request for SPA and conceptual
subdivision review for the Smuggler Mobile Home Park,
subject to the conditions listed above."

AMP will provide a totally new code complying electrical
Estimated cost:
5. AGREED. AMP will provide a totally new code complying gas
distribution system. Estimated cost:
6. AGREED. AMP will provide adequate drainage (drywells) per
City Engineering specifications. Estimated cost:
7. AGREED. It should be noted, however, that Parcel E was sized
in an effort to arrange for the maximum feasible open space for
the park residents. The land itself is zo.ne.d.. SEA,.and..so there
is no zoning standard. Moreover, any enlargement of this parcel,
as recommended by the Planning Office, will result in a reduction
of land otherwise to be conveyed to the tenants (the Cooperative).
8. AGREED. All streets will be privately maintained, including snow
removal.
9. AGREED. AMP will dedicate to the City a right-of-way to accommo-
date expansion of Gibson Avenue and Spruce Street, per the City
Engineer's request.
10. AGREED. However, AMP and the Planning Office have agreed that
portions of the Mobile Home Code (a) are not consistent with the
Settlement Agreement, which this Conceptual Submission is to im-
plement; and (b) are not necessary to the Planning Office's re-
view. Consequently, portions of this information need not be
supplied.
11. AGREED. In order to expedite the drafting of applicable rentals
and resale price guidelines, AMP has arranged meetings with the
City and County Housing Authorities. AMP has been given to
understand that proposed guidelines will be shortly forthcoming.
It should be noted, however, that under the Settlement Agreement

AMP and the Park Tenants will, in all cases, attempt to meet
all applicable codes. Agreements with respect to capital
improvements, described above, evidence this. Total code
compliance is not attainable. In keeping with the spirit,
intent and letter of the Settlement Agreement, however, AMP
has inventoried any departures that may be involved from
applicable codes in order that sucq codes might be amended,
or the Agreement implemented throug the flexibility of the

SUBJECT:
County Road R.O.W. North of Trailer Park
DATE:
May 11, 1981
From our numerous site visits and from map studies we have
devised;four' alternative road R.O.W. solutions that we
believe our e,lient (AMP) may accept. As you know, our
objective has been to accommodate the County's new road
alignment proposal which encroaches upon the existing
Smuggler Trailer Park while retaining or relocating the
4 "duplex" units which conflict with the proposed R.O.W.
Our constraints have included:
topography - the "knob" abutting Smuggler Parcel B.
R.O.W. alignment should minimize cut of this topographic
feature
topography considerations affecting the site p~anning of
modular or mobile homes
as many trees should be preserved as possible
road access, parking and grade to the proposed new
trailers in Smuggler Parcel "c"
limited access to the new County road
title/deed uncertainty (the uncertain ownership parcel
immediately east of, Smuggler Parcel "B") ,
The solutions we have identified are:
1. Smuggler Parcel "C" incorporating park expansion is
bisected (Map 1 & 2)
County R.O.W. passes through northern portion of
Park (Map 1)
Six new duplexes on parcel "c" remain
County trades back Parcel "B" (and adjacent parcel
north) to AMP in exchange for road right of way
AMP constructs 4 new duplexes on new northern parcel
1""".
i""""\
2. The County takes entire parcel "C" in addition to
already owned parcel "B" for new road, County trades
new parcel at some other site to AMP for expansion units
t26 units 1
3. Design Workshop alternatives tMap 3)
County to trade back Parcel "B" for required R.O'-W.
on Smusgl~r northern boundary
AMP to redesign 4 northern-most duplexes
County R.O.W. to follow below 7960' contour around
Parcel "B"
4. No new trades made with County
County, uses parcel B for road right of way and
aligns road parallel with Salvation ditch

RE: Smuggler Mobile Home Park Conceptual Submission
DATE: May 8. 1981
At your meeting on May 5th, you tabled the applicant's request for conceptual
approval pending a ~t" vi~it to the property and surrounding areas to be
impacted by the proposal. There was also an expectation that additional
information, would be received from the applicant. To refresh your memory,
the site visit is scheduledfor May 12 at 5:00 P.M. at the main entrance to
the existing park at Gibson Avenue and Neale Street. We will be looking at
some of the problems on the existi ng site and wi 11 also be shown some of the
areas where the County is considering developing new roads and housing for
employees. Jim Hamilton, Pat Dobie and Jay Hammond will accompany us on this
trip.
In terms of new information, the fOllowing has been accompl ished to date. I
have enclosed copies of the conceptual maps prepared by the applicant for your
review. Please bring the original memo I prepared for your last packet to
, address many of the review concerns we have with the proposal. At the previous
meeting. you expressed the need for more or revised information regarding:

Specially Planned Area

/
On October 9, 1979, the Aspen Mountain Park Partnership
(AMP), a corporation which had purchased the Smuggler
Trailer Park with the intention of redevelopment. issued a
notice t9 tenants that the rents for mobile home spaces
. were to rise substantially. In response to that threat to
,the residents. the City began eminent domain proceedings
against AMP as a means of initiating negotiations to resolve
the rent issue while maintaining the trailer park as a
location of employee housing and also obtaining capital
improvements in the trailer park. As a result of those
negotiations. a settlement agreement was reached between
the City, AMP and the trailer park Homeowners Association,'
attached for your review.
The terms of the settlement provide a financial basis under
, which AMP agreed to liquidate its holdings in the park.
>,AMP agreed to make certain improvements to the utility and
. road systems in the park and to make the spaces available
to the present owners of mobile homes at a price of $25,000
,per,space. Following the sale. all units are to be deed
restricted as employee housing at a price guideline yet to
be determined. In exchange, the Park is to be permitted to
be expanded by 26 additional deed restricted mobile homes,
which are to be sold at a price not to exceed $70,000. AMP
also is to receive the r~ght to develop on another site 19
free market units exempt from the GMP, based on a mechanism
which has not yet been enacted into the Code entitled the
"90:10" provision.
The applicant is requesting conceptual approval of the
subdivision of the Smuggler Mobile Home Park into five
distinct parcels and the addition of 26 new mobile homes
which would be deed restricted as employee housing, and be
used in the calculation of a 70:30 GMP exemption for the
Pitkin Reserve Subdivision. Figure 1 illustrates how these
requests fit within the overall planning ,review process.
The comments received during the review of this application
may b~ categorized as follows:
1} ,Basic engineering/design concerns; and
2} Planning process issues.
Each of these areas is addressed in detail 'below;
Basic Engineering Design Concerns
The Engineering department, in a'memorandum dated April 22,
1981, comments that this submission improves significantlY
upon previous plans as regards circulation and density.
Nevertheless, they identify numerous deficiencies in the
current proposal. First, the Engineer notes that since
Memo: SI11uggler Mobne He; Park Conceptual Submission -.,
,April 29. 1981
Page Two
neither parcel B nor C fronts on a public or private street,
it may be necessary for the developer to dedicate a private
access to both parcels. Parcel B has been given to the
County in exchange for land involved in the Pitkin Reserve
application.
In a memorandum from the County Housing Office, the Housing
Director indicates that the County would like to give Parcel
B back to AMP in exchange for an easement along the existing
dirt road which is shown through Parcel C, where the appli-
, _.__'_. cant now proposes to build new trailers. The areas on either
side of the road are steeply sloping and to place the new road
in either of these locations would create a highly visible,
broad cut. The Housing Director also suggests that the de-
veloper use Parcel B to construct a multi-family housing
structure rather than the new trailers.
The Planning Office and Engineering Department, in a site
visit with the Housing Director, were shown that the County
plans for the SI11uggler/Silverking area are still fonnative
in nature but represent a major effort at solving the over-
all community employee housing problem in this nearby loca-
tion. We feel that it is in the best interests of the en-
tire community not to preclude any options which are currently
being pursued to provide the infrastructure necessary to
meet employee housing needs. The road being considered by
the County would be a major loop connecting the Silverking/
SI11uggler area to Park Circle and also to Mill Street, thereby
providing improved circulation in the ,area. The Planning
Office recommends that the applicant enter into negotiations
with the County to try to resolve this issue.
The second major design concern raised by the Engineer involves
the duplex trailer arrangement proposed by the applicant. The
Building Department comments that this arrangement poses pro-
.blems in tenns of light and ventilation, fire separation and
~access and egress. In fact" the exi sting mobile heme code of
the City of Aspen does not provide a basis for reviewing and
approving a duplex trailer arrangement. The Planning Office
therefore recognizes that it will be necessary to process a code
amendment to the mobile home park provisions, based on state and
national standards, by which such trialers may be pennitted in.
the City of Aspen.
The~ major design concern raised by the Engineer is utiliti~s.
While water system improvements do not appear to be necessary !
at the present time, the Aspen Metro Sanitation District comments
that the new trailers cannot be served until the sewage system i
is upgraded. The Electrical Inspector comments that electrical :
"'V'^ ' '. service to a majority of the units presently at the park re- :'
,:2bbO:ff-P{/lLbvlpresents an imminent danger to life, health and safety and shaull;!
, 'I~, 0" On be corrected immediately. The District M~nager for Rocky. Mounta1n
~,r c.4yvt.A,.iI., Natural Gas states that the present gas llnes should be replaced,
in the interests of safety. Finally, the Engineer notes that '
d.rainage needs should be accommodated through drywells in subse-'
quent site plans.
...
.
Miscellaneous concerns of the Engineer include:
- That Parcel E, at 10,020 square feet, is a substandard
lot in the surrounding R:'15 zone district and should be
expanded to the 15,000 square foot minimum; .
, - That the developer dedicate right-of-way at three loca-
tions to accommodate the needed expansion of both Gibson
. Avenue ,and Spruce Street; and
_ . That in order to pennit road maintenance and' snow removal
on City streets, the Engineering Department requires 60 ,
feet of right-of-way. The roads in the Smuggler system !
are insufficient to permit dedication to the City for thes~
purposes.

Planning Process
Issues:
The Planning Office review of Chapter 14 of the Code,
"Mobile Homes and Mobile Home Parks" uncovered several
issues which must be addressed by the applicant. Section
14-3 sets minimum submission requirements for any expansion
of a mobile home park. These provisions include:
Complian~ with Planned Unit Development requirements;
Submission of a landscaping plan, to include all site
improvements;
Description of fire protection, facilities and plans;
Analysis of traffic impacts, school impacts and
police impacts of the expansion; and
Assessment of the community need for the expansion.
.' 1}

3)
.
.' 4)
.5)
.The need for this information was uncovered at a very late
stage in the conceptual review process. The Planning Office
would therefore recommend that you require this data to be
available prior to reivew of this application by City Council.
The Planning Office has also found deficiencies in the housing
information supplied by the applicant in that it is impossible
to calculate whether the proposed price for the new trailers
falls within City Housing price guidelines unless data is
provided on the size of the trailers. Since comments were
not received from the Housing Director, the Planning Office
recommends that your approval exclude conceptual approval of
rj , '.' the appl i cant IS housi ng pri ces. ,
L" , ,(f~If;:IP0."Section 14-6 of the Code sets standards for mobile home parks.
~ "'\'~LCn'c;,.IlL iV',..K2'L"{ Since this park is more than five years old, it should no
'\,' 0!1;&",,,,,,,. ,longer be r:eviewed under the minimum standards for ~xi~ting

should meet the most stringent '~n~,I'!,.,s~tB!1.~rd.sfor 11.~'(!...Jl,9,r~s".
The Building Department comments concerning spacing, encroach-
ments, setbacks, recreational vehicles and parking should all
be vi.ewed in light of these standards. Furthermore, the exist-
ing park is required to have 10% of its area for recreation,
while the new park must reserve 20% of its area for recreation.
, The Planning ,Office will need better data to determine com-
pliance wi th these standards..
It _ :\~\ ~
\,~t.{,-?v(,o\
.w";
A final planning process issue is that the' precise nature of
this conceptual submission has been changing since the Planning
,Office first received this 'application. The letter included in
your packet from Brooke Peterson notes that the applicant is
now only requesting 22 new trailers rather than the 26 included
in the application before you. The Planning Office has re-
ceived verbal indication that the applicant will be submitting
a revised site plan to you at your meeting. Should the
applicant follow' this procedure, the Planning Office recommends
that you immediately table this request since staff has not had
any opportunity to study these alternatives.

DATE: April 28, 1981
TO:' City of Aspen
Planning and zoning Commission
FROM: Br00ke A. Peterson,
Attorney for Smuggler Mobile
Homeowners' Ass0ciation
RE: Conceptual Submission for
Smuggler Mobile Home Park
'.
"
The comments of the mobile homeowners have been requested
by both the Planning Department of the City of Aspen, and by
various individual members of the City planning and Zoning
Commission. ,The following are the comments of the m0bile
homeowners' association and the board of directors.
first of all, it may be said that the plan presently
in front of you for review is the culmination of approximately
two (2) years of negotiations and struggle concerning the
future of The Smuggler Mobile Home Park,. This matter comes
before you after many hours of discussion between the mobile
homeowners, the Aspen Mountain Park Partnership and various
representatives of the City of Aspen. This discussion is an
on going one, and while the mobile home0wners and the owners
of the park are in substantial agreement concerning the future
of the park, many of those details must be finalized.
What has been presented by the representatives 0f the
owners is a plan that was altered as late as Wednesday, April
23, 1981, after a lengthy meeting once again between represen-
tatives of the owners of the park and the board of directors
of the homeowners' association. The conceptual plan, as
understood by the mobile homeowners, now calls for: (a) twenty
(20) new mobile homes to be constructed on the northerly portion
of the park; (b) two (2) neW mobile homes to be constructed on
the westerly portion of the park; (c) for both the homeowners
and the owners of the park to share in the cost of additional
improvements over and above the amounts of money that were
cOmmitted for the improvements of the park by the owners of the
park pursuant to the settlement agreement: and (d) for certain

of the existing mobile homes to be resituated within the
present park, in order to alleviate congestion ana to
increase the uniformity of the individual spaces. These
compromises where reached only after a firm analysis and
firm proposals with respect to the.cost of the necessary
improvements to the park were submitted by various City
and/or quasi-municipal agencies, including, but not limited
to the Holy Cross Electric Company, Rocky Mountain Natural '
Gas Company and the Aspen ~anitation District.
A major area wherein there has been no final resolution
of the concerns of the mobile homeowners and the City is the
question of future resale restrictions upon the mobile homes
and upon the property upon which they sit. It is recognized
,by all parties concerned, that these restrictions are
necE!s,sary to keep the purchase price of the mobile homes
within the financial capability of Aspen's employees. The
single greatest difficulty in achieving this goal is the
fact that the money being borrowed by the cooperative,
,the entity which is going to be purchasing the park proper,
must be borrowed at a rate approaching two (2) percentage
points above the prime lending rate. If the prime lending
rate continues to remain at its present level, it is
90nceivable that the lending rate for the mobile homes
will be in the eighteen (l8) to nineteen (19) percent range.
,Given this interest rate, a proper return certainly does not
adequately reflect itself ina return limited along the
guidelines that have been used for the limitation on resale
in past Pitkin County projects. This area is of grave
concern to the mobile home0wners and they are in the process
of resolving this matter with the City authorities.
The physical nature of the park will be vastly improved
by the contemplated improvements. Unfortunately, we cannot
add new land to the park or accomplish major spatial changes,
given the present nature of the park. We can, however, begin
to COrrect some of the deficiencies in the services within
the park, and to create a better living environment by virtue
of the contemplated improvements. These improvements are of
a vital necessity, a situation recognized by both the owners
of ~~e park and the mobile homeowners' association, and
should be started as quickly as possible. Unfortunately,
they cannot be started until b0th the proposed development of
The Smuggler Mobile Home Park and the Pitkin Reserve Project

have been approved, due to the nature of the settlement
agreement between the parties. The situation is such that
time is literally of the essence should we hope to begin
any of the improvements during this summer's building
season, and should we hope to be able to stay within the
estimates which have been provided to us by the various
contracting agencies.
The park, in and of itself, will be organized into a
Cooperative ownership. In other words, one entity, The
Smuggler Mobile HOmeowners' Park Association, a cooperative,
will own the entire piece of real property. The individual
mobile homeowners will be given a permanent lease upon
their real property space and a share in the cooperative both
of which, when taken together, represent their ownership
interest in the real property itself. The reason for the use
of the cooperative is to enable the Ass0ciation, as a whole,
.' to determine the proper use of the land, to simplify the
management of the park, and to facilitate the acquisition of
the mobile home park. A cooperative will als0 allow the
homeowners, should they ever determine that it would be in
their, best interest to sell the property as a whole, and/0r
to erect permanent housing structures for their own use on
the property, within the confines of the land use regulati0ns
of the City of Aspen. .
The Smuggler Mobile Home Park is a vital source of
employee housing in this community and all parties to a
compromise agreement, in spite of their disagreements as to"
the interpretation of that document, recognize that fact.
It is hoped that the Planning and Zoning Commission will
also, recognize the nature of The Smuggler Mobile Home Park,
and help all of the parties to not only preserve the nature
of the mobile home park, but also to cause it to be improved
by allowing this new arrangement to come to fruition, accom-
panied as it will be by additional employee housing units,
and by substantial improvements to the existing park.

The following are preliminary conceru~ regarding the Aspen Mountain
Park condominiumization;
1. Exhibits #1 a 2 supplied to this department are inadequate to
determine proper mobile home spacing. Exhibit,;2, the conceptual
site plan is an approximation. This does not appear to show the
numerous additions or out buildinR9 that have been added to the
individual mobile homes. Many of these utility shed and
additions are too close to other units.
2. Exhibit #2 shows mobile homes that will be relocated on the site
due to encroachment into setbacks or taber mobile home sites. _
However, it appears that other units not scheduled to be re-
located are also encroaching lnto segbacks or setting on other_
property line or mobile home sites. Eg. Units #1, #22, #46
#85, #72.
3. The buildin" department Questions the feasibility of the duplex
trailer arrangement where one trailer is placed against another.
Areas of concern are light and ventilation, fire separation
and access & egress. lfill this arrangftlent allow the trailer
hitch to be accessible as required by Section 14.5(d)(6).
Many of the units do not have trailerhitchs. Eg. #49, #76,
#81, etc. Others have built up landscaping making it impoBsible
to remove the unit in case of fire.
4. Space #37 appears to have a new fence. The fence has been built
without a permit and is too high for codes.
5. There ""ere at least 5 recreational vehicles parked illegally.
Need a plan for recreational vehicles and over flow parking.
6. In general there are sheds, utility buildings and attached
structures randomly scattered everywhere. We need some idea
at to whether some of theBe will be abated or relocated on _
the proper lot and within the proper spacing.
Please see the attached for the Electrical Inspector's comments.

Aspen Mountain Park Condominiumization
A aurvey of the Electrical distribution system at the Smuggler Mobile
Home Park was made on 27 April 1981. The following conclusions and
attached detail problems were developed trom that survey.
CONCLUSIONS: The electrical service supplied to a majority of the
units at the Smuggler Mobile Home Park represents a present danger
to lite, health and safety and should be corrected immediately
whether the park is Bold or not.
To dorrect the preaent defects and deficiencies would in general
require a complete rewiring of the electrical distribution system
from the utility company transformers throught to a new pedestal
located within 30 feet of each unit including proper wire size,
circuit breakers, and ground circuits.
Although there are some services with 100 amp disconnects, even
these have associated problems or deficiencies that would warrant
rewiring in order to provide a safe electrical distribution system.
No attempt has been made in this survey to evaluate the electrical
capacity, installation or safety within or on any of the mobiI...
homes. From the condition and abuses observed in the connecting
service to these units, it can be assumed that many electrical
safety problems presently do exist within these units.
DETAIL PROBLEMS:
1. Meters blocked by masonry wall
2. Meters with CB's in common location with 8 to 14 (meter/CB)
grouped together.
3. More than half do not have pede!;ltal/service.
4. CB at meter range from 20 amp 2P to 100 amp 2P with approximately
! below 50 amp and ! 50 amp or higher.

5. Many disconnect panels do not have front protective covers
(unprotected wiring when waterproof cover opened).
6. Wiring from meter group to mobile units as small as 3-#10
in many cases.
7. In most, neutral not bonded to grounding electrode conductor
(ground circuit).
8. OthaT observed problems:
a) Circuit connected to supply side of disconnect/CB
1.e. no protection against fault on circuit.
b) Single underground wire separated from neutral exits
from box and runs unprotected down to earth and in some
cases towards a mobile unit not the same as the
remaining circuit.
c} At least one disconnect panel modified with larger CB
and larger size wire. Panel not listed for that size.
Neutral wire too large for neutral buss. As a result
faulty connection off neutral wire.

Smuggler Mobile Home Park
As you anticipated, the County is 'extremely interested in the proposed
additional development in the Smuggler Mobile Home Park. Our major
concern centers around the proposed addition of twenty-six (26) new
trailers and the need for an adequate circulation system which will
be necessary as a result of the employee housing development being
proposed north of the mobile home park.
The County Engineer, Pat Dobie, and myself have investigated several
possible circulation plans for the area. Nearly all of the plans
call for a new road to be constructed immediately north of the property
line of the mobile home park. To facilitate this construction, last
fall the County entered into an agreement with the Aspen Mountain
Park Partnership (M1P) to secure approximately one (1) acre of land
on the northeast corner of the park.
The alignment of a road through the one acre parcel would be adequate,
but would require a cut of between 20 and 30 feet through a knoll
on the Kuhne property., A more appropriate alignment of the road would
be to the south of the knoll. This alignment, however, would require
an additional easement from AMP and would be in conflict with AMP's
plan to locate approximately eighteen (18) new mobile homes in that
area. Of these eighteen (18) trailers, about ten (10) would need to
be relocated.
As a result of conversations with AMP, it is clear that they would
like to accommodate our road alignment, but have few'options for
relocating the ten (10) trailers to be displaced. We have investigated
two possible relocation plans, neither of which are acceptable to the
County.
In investigating relocation possibilities, one of my suggestions was to
simply eliminate the ten trailers. This suggestion was flatly rejected
by AMP. Apparently there are several reasons for maintaining the
development of all twenty-six (26) trailers. One of the major reasons,
as explained to me, was so that the profits derived from the sale of
twenty-six (26) new trailers would be used to improve the park in
accordance with the provisions of the agreement between AMP and the
'..

City of Aspen.
It is my belief, and thi s has been expressed to AMP, that thei r profit
expectation is unrealistically high. Therefore, the expected profit on
the sale of new trailers will not provide an adequate amount of money in
an appropriate time frame to facilitate the proposed improvements.
Additionally, the County would not like to see new trailers placed in
that, area. We feel it more appropriate to develop structures of a more
permanent nature. In my opinion, the optimum development for that area
would be as follows:
1) To have AMP grant an easement to Pitkin County so as to provide
for a more appropri ate road a 1 i gnment.
2) Have Pitkin County give ,back to AMP the parcel originally given
to the County for the road alignment.
3) Eliminate the plan to place 26 additional trailers in the park
and replace them with a more permanent structure on the one acre
parcel given back to AMP.
I feel that this proposal would provide for more open space in the park
for the existing tenants; would provide better and more permanent housing
opportunities for employees; and would have a more positive impact on the
surrounding neighborhood.

RE: Smuggler Mobile Home Park Revised Conceptual Subdivision Submission
The revised conceptual subdivision submitted by the Aspen Mountain Park Partner-
ship represents a significant improvement over the previous plan in terms of
circulation and efficient use of limited space. Relocation of access to the
west side will encourage residents to approach the park from the Mill Street
side rather than the already congested Park Avenue or Neal Street. Should
the County proceed ~ith construction of a through road north of the park, it
would be an easy matter to add further access from the north. Elimination of
some internal streets also serves to provide greater open space and increased
room between trailers.
While the current submission is an improvement in many ways, there remain
concerns that have not been fully addressed:
A. Subdivision/Parcels
1. There remains a concern over the legal status of parcels Band C since
neither parcel fronts on a private or public street. Depending on
whether the'County can obtain a street dedication to the north of the
park, it may be necessary for the developer to dedicate a private
access to both parcels. A commitment from the County regarding the
disposition of Parcel B could also mitigate the need for access.
2. Apparently the application is being handled as an S.P.A. It should be
noted, however, that Parcel E, at approximately 10,020 square feet,
would represent a non-conforming lot in the surrounding R-15 Zone
district. It may be possible to simply expand Parcel E to the 15,000
square foot minimum.
B. Trailer Additions
I have spoken briefly with the Building Department regarding the proposed
"duplex" trailer arrangement for the twenty-six new units. They expressed
some concern over the duplexing idea and were not aware of any standard
in existing building or mobile home codes that would permit such an arrange-
ment. I have asked that they be sent a copy of the submission for comment.
C. Roads and Rights-of~way
1. The site plan includes 40 foot setback lines from Gibson Avenue in two
locations as well as a 30 foot setback from Spruce Street. It would
be our suggestion that the developer be required to dedicate right-of-
way at these three locations to acconunodate the needed expansion of
both Gibson and Spruce.

,-..,
2. The revised internal circulation plan serves to improve radii for fire
equipment access as well as creating a wide and better defined street
system. Rights-of-way within the park, however, remain insufficient
to permit city dedication for maintenance and snow removal.
D. Utilities
1. Water - Samples of the existing galvanized mains removed from the
system recently by John Hawkins and submitted to the City Water
Superintendent proved to be in surprisingly good condition. While
the system remains inadequate to permit conveyance to the City, it
would appear to be adequate for most domestic needs within the park
for the next ten years. Please refer to the attached memo from Jim
Markalunas dated April 10, 1981.
2. Sewer - We are still awaiting a report from Wright-McLaughlin
regarding the condition of.the existing sanitary sewer.
3. Drainage - It is my understanding that further site plans will include
drywe11s to accommodate runoff.

YOUR MEMO OF 4.,.7-81, SMOGGLER TRAILER PARK WATER SYSTEM
APRIL 10, 1981
I have looked at the pipe you brought up and consider it in exceptionally good
condition, considering it was installed, to my knowledge, sometime in the early
60's. This pipe is at least 15-20 years old. I believe the north sample was
installed in the late 60's early 70's. From my experience, I believe you could
get another 15-20 years life out of this pipe. Please be advised that there
is evidence of deterioration of the galvanic coating on the exterior, particularly
,the sample marked, "W." And dependent upon localized conditions, certain segments
could fail earlier; but I am certain, under the worst of conditions, in not less
than 10 years.
Secondly, given the numb",r of trailers served, the existing p1p1ng is somewhat
smaller than standard and/or there are too many trailers for 2" lateral. Therefore,
it is possible during peak use, the trailers might experience an inordinate
drop in pressure. However, I don't believe it would be significant enough to
warrant the replacement of the lines. You might check with some of the long-time
residence of the trailer court in respect to this.
It would be my recommendation that, given the localized conditions, that you leave
well-enough alone and make use of the existing system, and at some future point
in time, lay new lines in the access areas, rather than under the trailers.
Please keep in mind that this is somewhat like predicting the weather.

Re: Aspen Mountain park/

Dear Richard:
You have asked me to supplement my April 2, 1981 letter
to you -- specifically with respect to the paragraph regarding
so-called Parcel A of the proposed trailer park subdivision.
Parcel A, as you know, contains the 87~ trailer spaces
and mobile homes that comprise the present trailer park. Pursuant
to the Settlement Agreement, the spaces themselves are to be sold
to the mobile home owners at a mean per space price of $25,000.00.
From the time of sale and thereafter, the mobile homes and the
trailer spaces will be restricted in terms of rental and resale
price controls to the ranges set forth in the housing price guide-
lines from time to time adopted by the City.
It is my understanding that the City Housing Director is
formulating the precise mechanics and control formulas, which I
believe will incorporate a fair market value appraisal of the indi-
vidual trailers, which when added to the land cost will establish a
base price against which a yearly escalator consistent with housing
guidelines will be applied. Since the park owners own only the real
estate and the mobile home owners own only the trailers themselves,
technically the conversion from uncontrolled housing to deed restricted
housing requires a combined effort of the park owners and the tenants.
Please call me if you have any questions.

RE: Forecast of Residential Construction in the Aspen
Metro Area during 1981
DATE: April 6, 1981
'.,
This memo is in response to your request for an evaluation of the anticipated
residential buildout in the Aspen MetrO Area during the coming year to assist
the Aspen Metro Sanitation District in their planning. The analysis I have '
performed provides only a staff level estimate of the order of magnitude of
expected construction; this information in no way represents adopted City or
County policy. You should also be aware that the Planning Office will be
undertaking a re-assessment of the Growth Management Plan this year which
may result in changes in the rate of growth in the area. To accommodate
many uncertainties inherent in this analysis, I am providing you with a low
forecast based on historical supply trends as well as a high forecast based
on the future demand which might be expected. Three factors underly this
analysis including:
- The quota of residential units available under the Growth Management
Plan (GMP);
- The actual numbers of , building permits that have been requested
during previous years; and
_ The measured demand for units which are exempt from the GMP (employee
housing units),
Each of these factors is addressed in detail below,
GMP Quota - The GMP allows 39 free market units to be constructed each year
with the City of Aspen and an additional 27 residential units in the remainder
of the Aspen Metro Area. These numbers can vary on a year-to-year basis due
to two provisions of the Code:
1) Units constructed which are exempt from the quota (i.e., a single
family or duplex structure on a lot subdivided prior to the effective date
of the GMP) are subtracted from that year's available quota. As a result, in
the City of Aspen, in the last two years only about 15-20 units were available
. due to exemptions being deducted from the quota,
2) In any year, the City Councilor BOCC may, at their discretion, award
a bonus of up to 20~~ of the total number of units avail ab 1 e, sai d bonus to be
offset duri ng the fo 11 owi ng fi ve yea rs. '._
Therefore, for purposes of this analysis, it should be assumed that 66 free
market units may be built in the Aspen Metro Area in anyone year, with a
possible bonus of 13 additional units available during anyone year. The
question then becomes, h0\1 many of these units will be built during the coming
year? The recent 1981 competition in the City awarded a total of 45 free
market units to three separate projects, due to units being carried over from
previous years. I would estimate that of these units, nine will most likely
be built this year while the other 36 will probably not complete the develop-
ment revie\~ process this year. In addition, 55 units which were authorized in
previous years have not yet been approved; it is unclear at this time whether,
they will receive final approval this year.
In the Aspen Metro Area, the 1981 competition will take place in June. Due
to tlie fact that 44 buil di ng permits for units exempt from the GMP were issued
in 1930, no quota remains available for 1981. HO\1"Ver, the Code provides that
"

Menlo: Forecast of Residential Construction in the Aspen Metro Area during 1981.
April 6, 1981
Page Two
a minimum of 8 units shall be available for allocation,each year, so this
number can be expected to be open for competition, though I wouldn't expect
them to be built in 1981. In addition, 10 free market units were allocated in
previous years and have not yet been built, but could be built in the near
future.
Building Permits - As was mentioned above, 20-25 single family and duplex units
have been built in the City during the previ ous two years while 40-45, such units
have been built in the County Metro Area during this time frame. These numbers
provide a useful estimate of expectations in coming years; they do not include
emploYf!e housing projects such as the 80 units at Castle Ridge which are exempt
from th~ GMP competition.
Employee Units - At the present time, there are 16 units authorized by the City
GMP and 16 units through the County GMP which are to be employee units and which
should be built this year or next. In addition, the new incentive ordinances
such as the residential bonus overlay should create additional employee units,
estimated for 1981 at 10-15 units. Projects such as Marolt's Castlewood-Headgate
(73 employee units) and Little Annie could significantly add to this total but
are not'included in the present forecast.
Demand-Oriented - Based on County Housing Department Analysis, a total of 575
employee units are needed over the next five years simply to meet existing de~
ments. Should this need be met, an additional 115 employee units would be con-
structed each year, to include the projected 217 units at Silverking and other'
possible developments in the Smuggler-Red Mountain Area.
Summarizing then, here is the estimate, on an order of magnitude basis, of the
residential buildout which may be expected in the Aspen Metro Area during 1981.
Supp ly Ori ented

Demand Oriented - An additional 115 units/year or a total of 250 units in the
Aspen Netro Area would be constructed under this scenario.

RE: STP Expansion to 4.0 MGD
Gentlemen:
We have been in-eon.'t.a;ct, with Dick Bowman regarding loading conditions at
the plant. During the Christmas holidays the plant operated at levels of 2.9.
mgd or ninety-six (96) percent of design hydraulic capacity.
State regulations provide that sanitation authorities initiate plans for
expansion at 85% design capacity with new facilities in service at 95%.
We have an unusual situation where the facility is near design capacity
for thirty (30) days in a year of operations. Mr. Bowman has indicated the
procedure for us to follow regarding the propsed expansion:
1) Prepare a preliminary engineering report for the project with an
implementation timetable. .
2) The plan should address all design elements of the plant including
nitrifi cati on.
3) The report should be submitted to the water quality control commis-
sion for a ruling as to whether the commission will allow loadings in
excess of 3.0 mgd during the period tllie plant is being expanded. In
addition, the commission must decide on whether or not to require
additional nitrification facilities.
4) Upon commission approval of preliminary engineering, the final design
of facilities may proceed.
To date, the facility has an excellent record, and no history of consistent
violation. Therefore, it appears unlikely the state will impose a tap moritorium,
as long as the District is pursuing expansion plans.
Wright-McLaughlin ,Engineers will prepare the report on an hourly basis for
a maximum of $5,000.00. Time spent negotiating with the state will be billed

Re: Amendment to Smuggler Mobile Home Park
Conceptual Submission, dated March 18,
1981, and Pitkin Reserve Conceptual
Submission
Dear Richard:
At your request, and as we have discussed over the past
several days, this letter shall serve to clarify the above-referenced
conceptual submissions as follows:
1. Smuggler Mobile Home Park. The five-parcel subdivision
contemplated under this submission, we believe, might be sustained
under existing legislation as follows:
a. Parcel E. Given that this parcel is to accommodate
the relocation of the existing victorian home within the Park, the
creation of this lot is excepted from the GMP pursuant to
Section 24-11.2 (d) --Le. ,the lot split exception.
b. parcels Cand D. These parcels are proposed for
the expansion of the Park by some 26 mobile homes as is more particu-
larly described in the Settlement Agreement that has been incorporated
into the original submission. Given that these areas are to be
developed (with the addition of mobile homes) and sold as controlled
(i.e., middle income) housing units at prices within the range set
forth in Resolution No. 18, Series of 1980 of the Aspen City Council
concerning housing price guidelines, these parcels should be excepted
from GMP under Section 24-ll.2(h).
c. Parcel B. This parcel has been proposed for dis-
connection from the City of Aspen by the application of the appli-
cants herein filed with the City Clerk on February 24, 1981, pur-
suant to Sections 31-12-501, etseq C.R.S. 1973. We have been given
to understand (by the former CIty Attorney) that when disconnected
this will operate as a de jure/de facto subdivision.

d. Parcel A. Parcel A is the parcel that remains
after the subdivision of the above-referenced lots and contains
essentially the present "as developed" Smuggler Trailer Park.
Since no development is to occur, the creation of this parcel as
such is not covered by the GMP.
2. Pitkin Reserve. The twelve free market units con-
templated by this submission should be reviewed under existing
legislation in terms of the so-called 70-30 exception from GMP,
[Section 24-ll.2(i)]. The controlled deed restricted units to be
considered in this analysis are those above-described and proposed
for development on parcels C and D of the Smuggler Home Park. This
analysis yields eleven of the twelve free market units proposed.
The remaining unit proposed (as well as the balance of the 19 free
market units described in the Settlement Agreement above-mentioned)
should be reviewed in terms of the so-called 90-10 ordinance that
has been drafted by us and proposed for adoption as an exception
to the GMP, again pursuant to the Settlement Agreement.
I believe this answers your recent questions. More
importantly, I believe that it is important and request that you
so consider, review and advise the legislative bodies to which
the submissions are to be reviewed, that both of these submissions
emanate from the single Settlement Agreement, which integrates the
two. As such, both submissions might be reviewed as separate phases
of a single project -- approval of each phase being conditioned upon
approval of the other.
Needless to say, please call either myself or Rick Ferrell
if you have any questions. Thank you for your consideration.

TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Alan Richman, Planning Office
RE: Smuggler Mobile Home Park Conceptual Submission
DATE: May 8, 1981
At your meeting on May 5th, you tabled the applicant's request for conceptual
approval pending a site visit to the property and surrounding areas to be
impacted by the proposal. There was also an expectation that additional
information would be received from the applicant. To refresh your memory,
the site visit is scheduledfor May 12 at 5:00 P.M. at the main entrance to
the existing park at Gibson Avenue and Neale Street. We will be looking at
some of the problems on the existing site and will also be shown some of the
areas where the County is considering developing new roads and housing for
employees. Jim Hamilton, Pat Dobie and Jay Hammond will accompany us on this
trip.
In terms of new i nformati on, the foll owing has been accompl i shed to date. I
have enclosed copies of the conceptual maps prepared by the applicant for your
review. Please bring the original memo I prepared for your last packet to
address many of the review concerns we have with the proposal. At the previous
meeting, you expressed the need for more or revised information regarding:
- Access and egress to and from the site;
- Cut and fill plans for the new trailer locations;
- Landscaping plans;
- Employee housing guidelines; and
- Accof1Jllodation of the County plans for the SilverkingjSmuggler
Mountain area.
In the intervening days since your last meeting the applicant has spent a
great deal of time negotiating with the County to accommodate their plans
and developing a conceptual basis for incorporating these plans within the
overall development expectations of the settlement agreement. As a result,
the Planning Office and Engineering Department have not proceeded much fur-
ther in their review of the site plan before you, since it appears that an
amended conceptual presentation may be submitted by the applicant. Neverthe-
less, a brief outline of the plan now under review reveals that:
----
- It shows only 22 and not 26 new trailers, with 20 in a duplex
arrangement and 2 as single trailers, all being located in either
Parcel A or C, with Parcel D beingtotally.eliminatedfrom the pro-
posal; and
It provides a better overall spacing arrangement for the trailers
through additional relocations as well as trailer shifts in place
to provide improved safety and circulation patterns.
The new site plan does not address access and egress problems, potential topo-
graphic problems, landscaping or employee housing guidelines. In fact, no new
information has been received as regards any of these issues, although the -
applicant intends to make it available at your meeting. The Planning Office
has initiated its Smuggler Area Plan and has developed a conceptual map for you
to view the circulation and other problems in the overall area.
The Planning Office recommendation for this application remains as it was at
your meeting on May 5, 1981.

SMUGGLER MOBILE HOME PARK
CONCEPTUAL SUBMISSION
In compliance with the City of Aspen Land Use Code and the
Special Planning Area Zone category, the Aspen Mountain Park
Partnership hereby submits this revised comceptual presenta-
tion for consideration and approval by the City of Aspen.
This application requests that conceptual submission sub-
division approval by granted, and approval be granted for
the proposal developement.
THE SITE
The site consists of approximately 11.8 acres bordered by
Gibson Avenue and Spruce Street on the South and West, and
Pitkin County to the North and East. A vicinity map is
provided as Exhibit I.
Currently 87 mobile and modular homes are in place on the 88
available spaces, in the central portion of the site. These
homes have traditionally been a major source of employee
housing for the City of Aspen, due to their reasonable price
and location convenient to town and bus transportation.
PROPOSED PROJECT
This proposed project has previously been agreed to by the
City of Aspen, the Smuggler Mobile Home Owners Association,
and the Aspen Mountain Park Partnership (see attached
Settlement Agreement).
The project contemplates division of the existing park into
five lots (see maps I & II), four of which can be drawn
within the framework of existing Growth Management Plan
exemptions (see for example city codes pertaining to lot
splits and controlled housing). The fifth lot is currently
the subject of a petition to disconnect (attached) to
place it in the jurisdiction of Pitkin County; this effec-
tively causes its subdivision.

Smuggler Mobile Home Park
Conceptual Submission
MAP DESIGNATION
A. The central, major parcel (approximate,ly 8.86 acres
encompassl.ng the current mobile home locations) will
become the Smuggler Mobile Home Park Cooperative, where
current Park residents will have the collective right
to purchase a share in the cooperative, representing
their mobile home space, for an average price of $25,000.
B. The smallquadilateral shaped parcel to the Northeast
(approximately .41 acres) will be deeded to Pitkin
County.
C/D. The two parcels Northeast and West of the Cooperative
(area totalling approximately 2.30 acres) will have
26 additional mobile, homes placed. Consistent with
the employee orientation of the development, these
homes and spaces they occupy will be offered for sale
at a purchase price not to exceed $70,000. To
accommodate the new units, mobile homes will be placed
in a duplex arrangement. As these units are contiguous
to the existing Smuggler Park, they will share common
expenses such as snow removal, etc.
E. The small (approximately .23 acres) triangle to the
South will have relocated on it the Victorian-style
single story frame house currently situated on the
Western border of the property.
SMUGGLER MOBILE HOME COOPERATIVE - PHYSICAL
MOBILE HOME RELOCATIONS/ADDITIONS
Five existing mobile homes will be relocated to new sites within
the park (mobile homes #28, 40, 58, 74 & 84-see map II). Relocations
will be made to: satisfy the requirements of the existing Settle-
ment Agreement for the addition of 26 new mobile home units;
provide. more uniform mobile home spacing for current residents;
and to comply with city regulations on road access for fire
vehicles.

Anticipated but not indicated onthe.:;>plan=_aE'el:ai:linor_re!Locations
for mobile homes #6, 38, 41, 49., 57, 60, 64, 65, 79., 80, 81,
85, 86, 87, and 89., to provide more uniform lot sizes and a
40' road right of way.
The recommended plan does not place a new mobile home in existing
lot #88 (vacant due to a burned mobile homel, to provide greater
space for existing mobile homes. The existing laundry room
(current space Ji:35l will be demolished, and space used to relocate
mobile home #40. A new laundry room and coop office will be
constructed on the eastern property boundary, adjacent to
mobile home #55.
TRAFFIC FLOW
Traffic circulation within the park, will be signiiicantly al~
tered with. eLLmination of the existing park entrance at the
intersection of Gibson Avenue and Neal Avenue, the southermost
interior E/W Road, and the western N/S collector street (see
map Ill. Our objective is to accommodate the 26 new mobile homes
while minimizing relocations of existing horoes, pDovide more
open space and establish a safer neighborhood street system~
UTILITIES SERVICE
SMUGGLER MOBILE HOME COOPERATIVE
As part of the sales agreement to current mobile home residents,
the Aspen Mountain Park Partnership will provide a xund of $2,500
per space sold, to be appli.edto utilities and Park improvements
as necessary. The nature, cost and scope of capital improvements.
are currently being explored, notwithstanding this fund, with
the objective of providing a healthy and safe living environment.

26 ADDITIONAL MOBILE HOMES
On parcels Northeast and west of the Cooperative, new utilities
(water, sewer, electricity, gas) will be installed to service
the 26 additional mobile homes.
RESALE PRICE CONTROLS
Consistent with the controlled employee housing nature of
the entire project, all spaces (coop and expansion units) will
be restri'cted in terms of resale price controls on mobile homes
and spaces. Controls will be determined jointly by the City
and the applicants, to both provide a fair return on investment
to the new owners and preserve a vital portion of Aspen's Employee
Housing.

INTERRELATION OF SMUGGLER MOBILE HOME PARK
AND PITKIN RESERVE SUBDIVISION
A. Development Assumptions. The submitted Plat
assumes and anticipates two distinct developments, viz., the
one shown on the Plat and herein described, and the other to
occur on real property more particularly described on Exhibit
"B" hereto attached. The other development -- the Pitkin
Reserve Subdivision, which is being developed by its owner,
Pitkin Ltd., contemplates the construction of twelve (12) free
market and one (1) controlled housing unit. The conversion of
the eighty-seven (87) existing mobile homes and the real
property (Parcel A) upon which they are situate from their
present uncontrolled status to deed or covenant restricted
employee housing units, as above and below provided, together
with the installation within Parcel C of the seventeen (17)
new controlled mobile home units shall be and constitute the
employee housing component necessary to sustain the free
market development at pitkin Reserve within the meaning of
exceptions to or exemptions from the growth management quota
system of Article XI Section 24 of the Aspen Municipal Code.
Although the review process for each development has occurred
independently of the other, each development having been re-
viewed on its own merits, for purposes of such exceptions to
-5-
.-,
,-,
'!3"illlK 424 ;;~G[ 785
or exemptions from the growth management quota system, it is
agreed and understood that the two developments shall be
considered together as an integrated whole.
B. Interrelatedness of Improvements. In view of
the dual ownership, nature and situs of the developments, and
in consideration of governmental approvals given in connection
with the Smuggler Mobile Home Park and Pitkin Reserve, it is
(a) acknowledged that the performance of the respective obliga-
tions of the Owner relative to the Smuggler Mobile Home Park
and of Pitkin Ltd. relative to Pitkin Reserve are mutually
dependent upon one another and the performance thereof shall
be and remain conditions to the obligations, agreements and
approvals of the City herein made or given or made or given in
respect of any development activities at Pitkin Reserve; and
(b) agreed that (i) provision shall be made in a separate
Subdivision/PUD Agreement to which both Pitkin Ltd. and the
Owner shall become party signatories, for the construction,
installation and erection of improvements within or upon the
pitkin Reserve Subdivision; and notwithstanding the foregoing
that (ii) as hereinafter used "Improvements" shall be deemed
to refer only to the improvements, facilities and systems to
be constructed, erected or installed within or upon the property
shown on the Plat and described in Exhibit "A", hereto annexed.
C. Development Allotments. The City acknowleges
and agrees that the conversion of the eighty-seven (87) mobile
home units within Parcel A to restricted housing units and the
construction of seventeen (17) new mobile home pads and homes
within Parcel C shall and pursuant to the exception provisions
to the allotment procedures of the growth management quota
system set forth in Sections 24-ll.2(i) and (k) does result in
the exception from compliance with the allotment procedures of
the growth management quota system of development activity
consisting of not less than nineteen (19) otherwise non-exempt
free-market housing units, twelve (12) of which are to be
employed in connection with the Pitkin Reserve development.
However, it is expressly acknowledged, understood, and agreed
that no certificate(s) of occupancy shall issue on such exempt
free market housing units until such time as the City is
satisfied that the obligations of, agreements made by, and
requirements herein imposed upon the Owner are met by the
Owner.

S'clJ;424 I'!,tt 786
the Owner and the Association, for themselves and for their
successors and assigns, hereby covenant with the City of
Aspen, Pitkin County, Colorado, that any mobile home (or
any other dwelling unit) located on or to be located on Parcel
A shall and hereby is dedicated and restricted for use as
employee housing as follows:
(1) In the case of sale of any mobile home (or
any other dwelling unit) the following restrictions shall
apply:
(a) The mobile home shall be offered to
sale to persons actually employed within the City of Aspen who
have resided in Pitkin County for a continuous two (2) year
period immediately prior to their purchase of the mobile home
or, who at the time any mobile home is offered for sale, are
residing in the Smuggler Mobile Home Park. The employee or
employees who purchase said mobile home must agree, as a
condition of sale and, in fact, must personally occupy the
mobile home as a primary residence during the period of owner-
ship.
(b) After a period of sixty (60) days,
should there be no qualified purchaser in category (a) herein-
above, the mobile home may then be offered for sale and sold
to persons employed within Pitkin County. The employee or
employees who purchase said mobile home must agree, as a
condition of sale and, in fact, must personally occupy the
mobile home as a primary residence during the period of owner-
ship.
(c) Should there be no qualified purchasers
in either categories (a) or (b) hereinabove, after an additional
sixty (60) day period from that set forth in paragraph (b),
the mobile home may then be offered for sale to employers
doing business in Pitkin County for use and occupancy solely
by their employees.
(d) Should there be no qualified purchasers
in either categories (a), (b) or (c) hereinabove, after an
additional sixty (60) day period from that set forth in paragraph
(c) the mobile home may then be offered for sale to any resident
of Pitkin County. The purchaser or purchsers must agree as a
condition of sale and, in fact, must personally occupy such
mobile home as a primary place of residence during the period
of ownership.
(e) Prior to the conveyance of any interest
in any mobile home and prior to the recording of any instrument
of conveyance, any prospective purchaser of the mobile home
meeting the qualifications as hereinabove set forth shall be
approved in writing by the City or a designated functionary
thereof. In addition, the City shall have the right to enforce

~
,--
~ilf1l( 424i'1,r,t 781
the terms and conditions of the above restrictions by injunc-
tion, abatement, eviction, rescission of the noncomplying
transfer or other appropriate legal action to prevent, enjoin,
abate or remedy such violation and shall be entitled to reason-
able attorney's fees in prosecuting said action. Nothing
herein shall be construed to prevent the City from curing a
violation of the above requirements as and prosecuting such
violation as a code violation under the Aspen Municipal Code.
(f) The City shall be entitled to a fee
of up to one-half (1/2) of one percent of the purchase price
of the mobile home to defray the cost of qualifying prospective
purchasers in accordance with this Agreement. This fee shall
be payable by the purchaser from and at the time of the closing
of the sale of the mobile homes, shall bear interest at a rate
equal to two percent (2%) per month while it remains due but
unpaid, and until paid shall constitute a foreclosable lien
against the mobile home.
(g) In the event of the transfer of
Parcel A to the Association, these restrictions shall not
preclude the adoption by the Association in its rules, regula-
tions or by-laws of a preemptive right of first refusal exercis-
able by the Association against future sales of mobile homes
within Parcel A; provided, however, that the terms of such
right shall first be approved by the City and, in any case,
the right shall be exercisable only for the purpose of creating
additional open space within Parcel A.
(2) In the case of non-owner occupied mobile
homes at the time hereof existing, the following occupancy
restrictions and rental limitations shall apply:
(a) The mobile home shall be rented to
employees who have lived in Pitkin County for a minimum of two
(2) continuous years immediately prior to their occupancy, or
to employees of the owner (without a minimum period of residency
within Pitkin County, if the owner is doing business within
Pitkin County);
(b) Should there be no qualified renters
for the mobile home found within twenty (20) days after a
"notice of availability of space" is given to the City or a
designated functionary thereof, the mobile home may be offered
for rent to any employee within Pitkin County.
(c) Mobile homes within Parcel A shall be
restricted to "middle income" housing eligibility guidelines
from time to time established by the City; provided, however,
that the aggregate monthly rental that may be charged for a
tenancy(ies) within a mobile home within Parcel A shall not
-8-
^
--,
t\\lGll !21;;A&1788
exceed the lesser of (i) the maximum rent permitted under the
"middle income" housing guidelines; or (ii) the sum of the
following monthly costs of the owner, if actually incurred:
(1) the monthly trailer mortgage; plus (2) either the owner's
monthly note payment to the Association for the purchase of
the owner's interest in the Association or in the case of an
owner who is not a member of the Association, the monthly
space rent paid by the owner, as below set forth in this
Section II, paragraph A(3); plus (3) the amount of any monthly
Association assessment for common expenses; plus (4) twenty-five
dollars ($25.00);
(d) The qualification of prospective
tenancies within mobile homes within Parcel A from the stand-
point of these eligibility guidelines and rental restrictions
shall be done in the manner hereinabove set forth in this
Section III, paragraph A(l)(a)(e), and the City shall be
entitled to collect a fee of up to ten percent (10%) of one
month's rent, payable at the inception of the tenancy by the
tenant, to defray the administrative costs incurred. The
remedies and sanctions applicable in the event of any actual
or attempted violation of these guidelines and restrictions
similarly shall be as set forth in this Section III, paragraph
A(l)(e). In addition to the remedies and sanctions therein
set forth, in all cases intended by the parties to be cumulative,
and by virtue of the parties' acknowledgment that actual
damages would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain,
the parties agree that the City shall be entitled to receive
as liquidated damages from any owner of any mobile home that
is rented in violation of these guidelines and restrictions a
sum equal to one hundred and ten percent (110%) of all rentals
received by such owner.
(3) In the case of a mobile home owned by
other than a member of the Association, the rent that shall be
charged for the mobile home space shall not exceed the lesser
of (i) the maximum rent permitted under the "middle income"
housing guidelines; or (ii) the sum of (1) twenty-five dollars
($25.00), plus (2) the amount of any monthly Association
assessment for common expenses levied against the space; plus
(3) a sum equal to the payment that would have been payable
monthly to the Association had the mobile home owner elected
to finance to the maximum extent available through the Associa-
tion (and upon the terms offered to members of the Association)
the purchase of the interest in the Association that would
entitle the owner to the right to occupy the space.
(4) The parties acknowledge and agree that it
is in the better interests of all to promote Parcel A to the
status whereby it shall be owner-occupied to the maximum
extent by Association members. To, this end, after one (1)
-9-
r<
-"
~QOKil21 ,p~.m: 789
year from the date of recording hereof, the share of membership
in the Association and appurtenant proprietary leasehold to
any mobile home space that is occupied by a mobile home whose
owner is not a member of the Association may be offered for
sale by the Association member (i.e., the shareholder/proprietary
lessee) and sold to a person(s) meeting the eligibility guideline
hereinabove set forth in this Section III, Paragraph 1, who
shall install and occupy a mobile home upon the space. At
such time as a contract for the purchase of such share of
membership in the Association is entered into, the owner of
the mobile home occupying the space appurtenant to the membership
share to be transferred (unless that owner shall be the trans-
feree of the share, as hereinafter provided) shall be given
written notice thereof and shall have sixty (60) days thereafter
within which to remove his or her mobile home from Parcel A to
permit entry of the mobile home of the membership transferee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the owner of the mobile home
occupying the space appurtenant to the membership share to be
transferred shall be given a written thirty (30) day notice
setting forth his right first to contract for the purchase of
the membership share at the price offered. Upon his failure
to exercise such right, the membership share may then be sold,
as above set forth, to those meeting the eligibility guidelines
of Section III, Paragraph 1.
(5) Upon the transfer of Parcel A to the
Association, the foregoing occupancy guidelines and sales and
rental restrictions shall be incorporated verbatim or by
suitable reference into the rules, regulations and by-laws of
the Association and shall by it be strictly and diligently
enforced, including by eviction for any violation thereof.

and sell such mobile homes, at its sole marketing discretion,
for up to Seventy Thousand Dollars ($70,000.00), which discretion
is hereby confirmed and agreed to by the City. For purposes
of the income category into which such initial sales shall be
deemed to fall, the City agrees that the income and occupancy

during the period they are binding without the prior consent
of the City reflected by resolution thereof. The dedications,
covenants and restrictions herein set forth shall be deemed to

a benefit and a burden thereto and to anyone acquiring a
record interest therein, and the successors, grantees and
assigns thereof, as well as being a benefit to and specifically
enforceable by the City. The dedications, covenants, and
restrictions shall be and remain effective aforesaid for the
period of the life of the longest lived member of the presently
existing City Council of the City of Aspen, Colorado, plus

CONSTRUCTION OF IMPROVEMENTS
A. Nature and Estimated Costs of Improvements.
Owner hereby agrees to be responsible for the making and
installation of the improvements to be contained within the
development indicated on the Plat, to the extent required by
Section 20-16(a) of the Municipal Code. The nature, extent
and estimated cost of such improvements shall substantially
conform to the schedule entitled "Smuggler Mobile Home Park
Improvements Schedule" annexed hereto and made a part hereof
as Exhibit F, which schedule delineates separately the improve-
ments to be undertaken in connection with Parcel A (pages F-l
through F-6), the improvements to be undertaken in connection
with Parcel C (pages F-7 through F-IO) and designation of the
parties to assume the responsibility for continued maintenance
after installation of utility improvements within Parcel A
(page F-ll). Schedule F also delineates the separate areas of
-11-
tIt)lJR424 'i'~;Gi 791
,.-'.
.~
responsibility for completion of improvements to Parcel A and
the allocation of costs therefor as between the Owner and the
Association (pages F-ll through F-15), pursuant to antecedent
agreement between the Owner and the Association, which agreement
is by all parties hereto hereby confirmed, accepted, ratified
and acknowledged. The Owner agrees, however, that notwith-
standing the agreement aforesaid with the Association, the
City shall have the right to hold the Owner fully responsible
for the completion of all improvements described within Schedule!
F, without prejudice, however, to the right of the Owner to
pursue any remedies that shall be available to it by reason of
the failure of the Association to complete the improvements on
its part to be done pursuant to its agreement aforesaid. In
the event that the City shall elect to hold the Owner respon-
sible for the completion of any improvements which the Associa-
tion has agreed to complete, as herein confirmed, the City
shall thereupon assign unto the Owner the benefit of all
financial assurances made by the Association in Section X
hereinbelow in respect of such improvements to the end that
the Owner in its own right shall be entitled to vindicate each
such assurance.
B. Construction Schedule. In accordance with the
requirements of Sections 20-l6(c)(1) and 24-8.9(b) of the
Municipal Code, construction of all development shall substan-
tially conform to the "Construction and Development Schedule"
annexed hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit "G", which
schedule includes the beginning and completion of the improve-
ments.
C. Paving of Internal Road System. The parties
acknowledge and agree that upon the completion of a master
drainage system for the proximate area covered by the development
activities contemplated herein, the Association shall cause '
the internal roadway system for Parcel A to be paved at the
Association's expense. In the event the Association shall
fail so to do within a reasonable period from the time its
obligation becomes fixed, the City shall be entitled to pursue
any and all remedies necessary to secure the specific perfor-
mance thereof, including a judicial action therefor or, extra-
judicially, the right to assess for the cost of such paving
and lien therefor all of Parcel A and individual mobile home
spaces therewithin and foreclose the same in the manner by the
City deemed most expedient and appropriate. Furthermore, in
all events the City shall be entitled to its costs and reasonable
attorneys fees incurred or occasioned by any default of the
Association in respect of the road paving.
V.
NON-COMPLIANCE AND REQUEST FOR AMENDMENTS
OR EXTENSIONS BY OWNER.
In the event that the City determines that the Owner
is not acting in substantial compliance with the terms of this
-12-
^
,.-
<1i01W 1J2 A p.er 792
'vl~ur~ 1;;1: 'lj: '. ,'I~~"-" "
agreement, the City may issue and serve upon the Owner a
written order specifying the alleged non-compliance and requiring
the Owner to cease and desist from such non-compliance and
rectify the same within such reasonable time as the City may
determine and specify in such order. Within twenty (20) days
of the receipt of such order, the Owner may file with the City
a notice advising the City that it is in compliance or a
written petition requesting a hearing to determine anyone or
both of the following matters:
(a) whether the alleged non-compliance exists or
did exist; or,
(b) whether a variance, extension of time or amend-
ment to this agreement shall be granted with respect to any
such non-compliance which is determined to exist.
Upon the receipt of such petition, the City shall
promptly schedule a hearing to consider the matters set forth
in the cease and desist order and in the petition. The hearing
shall be convened and conducted pursuant to the procedures
normally established by the City for other hearings. If the
City determines by a preponderance of the evidence that a
non-compliance exists which has not been remedied, it may
issue such compliance orders as may be appropriate; provided,
however, no order terminating any approval granted herein
shall be granted without a written finding of the City that
clear and convincing evidence warrants such action and affording
the Owner a reasonable time to remedy such non-compliance. A
final determination of non-compliance which has not been
remedied or for which no variance has been granted shall, at
the option of the City, and upon written notice to the Owner
terminate any of the approvals contained herein. At any such
hearing, the Association shall be entitled to respond and
present such evidence as shall be material to the hearing.
In addition to the foregoing, the Owner may, on its
own initiative, at any time petition the City for an amendment
to this agreement and the exhibits annexed hereto or to extend
any of the time periods required for performance. With respect
to the Smuggler Mobile Home Park Improvements Schedule (Exhibit
F), and the Development and Construction Schedule (Exhibit G),
the Owner has made various assumptions, which the City hereby
acknowledges and accepts, including the following:
(1) Completion in an expeditious manner of the
bidding, contractor selection, and implementation phases to
meet the dates indicated;
(2) Confirmation of the construction schedule by
selected contractors;
-13-
i~
,-"
OODli 424 f~iGl: 793
(3) Availability of the required labor and materials
during each phase.
The City shall not refuse to extend the time periods
for performance indicated in the Smuggler Mobile Home Park
Schedule or refuse to allow reasonable adjustments to the
Construction Schedule if the Owner demonstrates by a preponder-
ance of the evidence that the reasons for such extension or
said adjustments result from the failure of such assumptions
by reason of events beyond the control of the Owner or are
otherwise beyond the control of the Owner despite good faith
efforts on its part to accomplish the same.
VI.

to pay a park dedication fee for each such dwelling unit
(i.e., mobile home) that it sells for a sales price in excess
of applicable low or moderate (but in any case not to exceed
$70,000.00, as above provided) income guidelines. For purposes
of calculating such fee, the agreed current fair market value
of the land referable to each such dwelling unit is $25,000.00 ,
one percent (1%) of which shall be multiplied by the number of
residents for each such dwelling unit as that number shall be
determined under Section 20-18(1) of the Aspen Municipal Code.
Because it cannot yet be known whether a park dedication fee
will be payable, given the discretion of the Owner to sell
such dwelling units at a low, moderate or middle income level,
the City through its Finance Director as evidenced below
hereby agrees that (a) the park dedication fee, if any, payable
in respect of any dwelling units to be installed within Parcel
C, need not be paid until but shall be paid at the closing of
the sale of any dwelling unit for which a park dedication fee
is payable, and (b) that sufficient reasons and assurances of
payment exist to warrant the foregoing postponement of payment
and the recordation of the Plat in advance of such payment,
provided, however, that the Owner hereby acknowledges and
confirms that upon the recording hereof in the Pitkin County,
Colorado real property records, this Agreement shall consti-
tute a lien upon so much of Parcel C and any dwelling unit
thereon for which a park dedication fee shall become payable,
as above provided, to secure the payment thereof. Furthermore,
any instrument of conveyance to any mobile home transferred
without payment of the park dedication fee, if due, shall be a
nullity until such time as the required fee, if any, is paid.

The City agrees upon approval of this Agreement and the Plat
through its water department to supply water consistent with
the proper servicing of the needs of the improvements to be
constructed at Smuggler Mobile Home Park as above-described,

IX.
SEWER AVAILABILITY
Sewer lines shall be installed consistent with the
provisions contained within the utility sheets, sewer line
details and the costs of such installation shall be those
estimated amounts as set forth on Exhibit "F" hereto annexed.
The City agrees, upon approval of this agreement and the Plat
by the Metropolitan Sanitation District that sewer services
are fully available for the development anticipated on the
Plat, and that the estimated costs for sewer taps and related
fees connected with the installation and hook-up of such sewer
services are estimated to be the sum of $13,600.00, which
amount was prepaid by the Owner at the behest of the Sanitation
District prior to December 31, 1981, in order to secure the
more favorable rate structure then in effect. The availability
of such sewer services shall be provided by the Sanitation
District in a manner that conforms to the estimated construction
and development schedule as set forth in Exhibit "F" attached
hereto.
X.
FINANCIAL ASSURANCES
Pursuant to Section 20-l6(C) of the Municipal Code,
the Owner and the Association (to the extent of its undertaking
in respect of the improvements) hereby agree to provide a
guaranty in the sum of $463,883.50, which sum represents the
estimated cost of 100% of that portion of the improvements set
forth and allocated under Exhibit F hereto for which the City,
through the City Engineer, has requested financial assurance.
That portion of the improvements for which financial assurance
has been requested and which hereby is agreed to be given is
described on Exhibit "H" hereto. The guaranty to be pro-
vided by Owner and the Association (to the extent of its
undertaking in respect of the improvements) shall be in the

loan association; or shall be in the form of an irrevocable
sight draft or letter of commitment from a financially respon-
sible lender; and such guaranty shall give the City the uncondi-
tional right, upon default by the Owner, or its successor or
assigns or the Association, as the case may be depending upon
the nature of such default, to withdraw funds upon demand to
partially or fully complete and/or pay for any improvements or
pay any outstanding bills for work done thereon by any party.
As portions of the improvements required are completed, the
City Engineer shall inspect them, and upon approval and accep-
tance, he shall authorize the release of the agreed estimated
cost for that portion of the improvements; provided, however,
that ten percent (10%) of the estimated cost shall be withheld
until all proposed improvements are completed and approved by
the City Engineer. Unless otherwise agreed during the course
of construction of the improvements the financial assurances
herein provided may be amortized in the manner set forth in
the Progress Chart Release Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit
"I".
It is the express understanding of the parties that
the procedure set forth in paragraph IV pertaining to the
procedure for default and amendment of this agreement shall
not be required with respect to the enforcement and implementa-
tion of financial assurances and guaranties to be provided by
Owner as set forth above and required by Section 20-16(c) of

A) Any mobile home that encroaches in a significant
manner on the private rights of way, to be shown on the

shall be attached hereto as an exhibit when completed,
shall be relocated so as to no longer encroach on those
rights of way within two (2) years.
B) Any mobile home which encroaches in an insigni-
ficant manner upon any of the private rights of way shall
be moved at such time as the owner thereof replaces a
mobile home on that space, a variance from the present
provisions of the Municipal Code.

lmenM9# RE: Smuggler Drainage System:
Attached pl ease find two memos:. from Jim Flood, Wri ght-McGl augh 1 i n Engi neers.
concerning Smuggler drainage. These memos~ summarize first estimates of
drainage conditions in the area, and a preliminary drainage plan.
The plan for drainage calls for dry wells to be converted to catch basins. ,
As you recall. subsequent discuss ion. with the City and Wri ght-McGl aughl in,
has modified this plan to eliminate dry wells, and install capped catch
basins. These' will be opened when a master drainage collection system is
available for c.onnection. Based on discussions with Wright-McGlaughlin, this
alternative should reduce the cost approximately $5,000. although the pre-
liminary estimate ($10,000 for 4, dry wells) is being submitted with plat.
The drainage system for additional units remains unchanged. with a seepage
pit (approximately 720 C.F. of crushed gravel) initially constructed; to be
'converted to a catch basin when the master drainage system is available for
connection. This seepage pit (as noted on Plat Map #2 - Utilities Schematics)
will be connected to the storm sewers to be constructed in the existing Park.
Preliminary Specifications for the system are as follows:
Existing Park
- Catch Basins (5) - Standard 5' diameter. Precast concrete basins, with
grated inlets.'
- Storm drain pipe (as noted in attached memo) _
120+/- LF 18 inch PVC
200+/- LF 15 inch PVC
350+/- LF 12 inch PVC

Aspen Mountain Park is a parcel of approximately 12 acres which lies at the
base of Smuggler Mountain. An area of approximately 240 acres has historic-
ally drained through the Aspen Mountain Park area eventually to the Roaring
Fork RiVer. For the purpose of this reconnaissance level report a
similar basin analysis was performed using hydrology developed in the 1973
Urban Runoff Management Plan report prepared by our firm for the City of
Aspen.
This analysis is summarized as follows for the 240 acre drainage basin.
Two year frequency peak discharge (02 yr)
Two year frequency volume (V2 yr)
One hundred year freque~cy peak discharge
(0 100)
One hundred year frequency 'volume (V 100)
=9.6 cfs (cubic ft./sec.)
=1.3 A.F. (Acre feet)
=123 cfs
=11 A.F.
Historically drainage has flowed through the Park uncontrolled onto Gibson
Avenue and into low lying properties on Oklahoma Flats before reaching the
Roaring Fork River.
ANALYSIS:
Drainage of this magnitude, 123 cfs for the 100 year event cannot be effect-
ively managed by on-site improvements only.
With increased development in the Smuggler Mountain area the need for master
drainage facilities increases. Drainage from tributary areas may be inter-
ceptedby a master drainage system sized for a one-hundred year event.

As the Park constitutes a small fraction of a much larger drainage basin
which drains uncontrolled through the Park, the drainage situat'jon cannot
be significantly improved without master drainage improvements that would
benefit the entire Sumggler Mountain Area.
The homeowners could construct drainage facilities that would improve local
drainage around the mobile homes, however, the drainage will ultimately
wash over Gibson Avenue onto lower prqperties on Oklahoma Flats, as it
has historically.
As drainage has historically been uncontrolled as it passes through the:
existing Park the concl usi on: is two fold:
1. The roadway improvements should be designed in a matter precluding
runoff above historic levels from impacting Gibson Avenue and the
lower properties on Oklahoma Flats.
.
2. The proposed 17 units of additional development will impact directly
the existing trailer area and result in increased drainage to down-
stream areas. A rational method calculation for the 17 new units
rev!!als tilat additional runoff above historic would require 720 cubic
feet of detention storage volume for a two year frequency storm. ,
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Aspen Mountain Park Homeo~mers Association should decide which drain-
age alternative they prefer. The first option would be basically the status
quo but with improved road drainage. The cost of this option is mininal
and would consist of contouring the road to provide positive drainage.
There would still exist puddling in low areas of the park.
The second alternative would be to install an underground storm sewer
system which would collect the runoff from the roadways. The storm sewer
would outfall at the southeast corner of the site where it could be tied
into a master drainage system at a later date. The cost of this option
is approximately $30,000.00.
For the new units area, a seepage pit could be constructed to provide 720
cubic feet of detention storage. The cost of the seepage pit would be
approximately $10,000.00. The seepage pit does have problems-primarily
the possible contamination of underground water. The actual increased
runoff rate from the new development would be minimal when considered with
the Park as a whole. A developer contribution of $10,000.00 to the City
may provide a more positive means of dealing with the drainage situation.
Please contact us if you have any questions.
Very truly yours,

RE: Aspen Mountain Park Drainage
Fa'cil ities
Dear John.
. ,
",
At your request we wish',to offer the following review of the drain-
age situation for the Aspen'Mountain Park Project..
'The existing trailer'park area was constructed in'the 1950's. His-
torically drainage from the Park has been allowed, to flow naturally through
the development as sheet flow crossing the road and,flowing tOJ the ,Oklahoma
Flats area.
At present there exists no ,drainage collection facilities with
puddling being extensive during runoff periods.
Pitkin County is currently'doing,comprehensive development planning
in the area including the proposed Silverking Phase IV. project. Weanti~
cipate that master drainage improvement. designed to accept drainage flows
from the entire Smuggler Mountain pl anning area wi.1l be constructed in the
near future. However, since the master facilities are not in place, it is
necessary to resolve the Aspen Mountain Park drainage problems bY'means of
an interim solution which. can be readily 'converted ,to a permanent solution
when the master facilities are in place. ' .
We are recommending a system consisting of' positive grading of
roadways such that the roadways will act as drainage collectors for the area.
Roadway drainage will .be intercepted by drywell inlets interconnected by
a 'storm seWer sized for two year frequency storm events 'in accordance with
Pitkin County land Use Regulation.
Initially drainage'will be allowed to infiltrate the ground water
fOllowing treatment in a course rock filter drywell. The drywells'would
be sufficiently. deep as to provide 8 feet of penetration into alluvial'
deposits which underlay the site. The drywells are to be,filled wit~ ~
washed rock, to a depth of five feet below ground surface. At such time as
a master drain is available concrete 'inverts may be. built above the rock
iilland the storm drain activated. ' .

Drywell drain systems do have'potential for the contamination of "
ground water, and are subject to pluggin~ from sedimentation o~ebris.
Therefore, these are only intended until such time that they may be con-
verted,to storm drain manholes.
We should note the temporary: drywell structures are not of suff+
'icient size to handle two xear frequency design.storms, but will provide
partial runoff mitigation with overflows routed to, Gibson Avenue as has
historically has been-:the case. ',' ,,'
Attached is a cost estimate for the proposed facilities.
If you have questions, please do not hesitateto call.
Sincerely, '

Re: Financial Assurances for Improvements at the
Smuggler Trailer Park
Dear Bob:
Pursuant to our discussion yesterday regarding re-
quired financial assurances for proposed improvements at the
Smuggler Trailer Park, this letter is intended to set a dollar
figure for the estimated cost of improvements of particular con-
cern at the Park. Following my discussions with you and a brief
meeting with Dan McArthur, Paul Taddune and myself, a determina-
tion was made as to those items under the proposed schedule of
improvements (Exhibit F to the current Subdivision Agreement) re-
quiring a financial guaranty.
It was determined that the improvements of particular
concern to the City were those involving all utility mains,
electric improvements, storm drainage, grading, and miscellaneous
work. We felt that service connections to most utilities, while
required of the developer, were not something for which the City
would require a guaranty.
The dollar amount to be included in Section X of the
Agreement should be $463,883.50, which is the total construction
estimate for both the existing and proposed new units ($676,368.50)
excluding the following:
Existing Units
1.
Sewer Improvements
3. Service Connections
4. Service to Trailers
5. Service Pipelines
$ 5,340.00
89,000.00
42,500.00
