RE: Statement in Support of an Application for a Certificate of Exemption for
Calderwood Lot 7 Condo, Unit 2
Dear Mr. Bendon:
We represent Herbert and Paula Molner, and Ute Waters, LLC, a Colorado limited liability
company ("Ute Waters"). Herb and Paula have lived in Unit #1 of 1116 Waters Avenue (legally
described as Lot 7, Calderwood Sub -Division) since 1974. Herb and Paula recently purchased, through
Ute Waters, an LLC they control, the adjacent Unit #2. They intend to seek permission from the City to
renovate and combine Units # 1 and #2 into a single larger unit. They respectfully seek a Land Use Code
(the "Code") Section 26.530.030 B. Certificate of Exemption for Unit #2.
At the outset, it should be noted that, if approved, the Molners' would decrease a present
nonconforming use. 1116 Waters Avenue has always been used as a "four-plex"l, but it is now located
in an R-15, Moderate Density -Residential zone district. Section 26.710.050 of the City of Aspen Land
Use Code (the "Code") restricts the use of a building in R-15 zone district to no more than a duplex;
thus by reducing the number of units from four to three, the Molner's will be decreasing a
nonconformity, as is permitted and encouraged by Section 26.312.030 C. l of the Code.
Chapter 26.530.020 of the Code provides that the City of Aspen's Resident Multi -Family
Replacement Program prohibits any action which, "penetrates demising walls or floors between RMF

estate records of Pitkin County, Colorado.

Housing Units ... without first obtaining a certificate of compliance/exemption" pursuant to section
26.530.030. Section 26.530.030 B. provides that an owner may obtain a certificate of exemption from
the Community Development Department if the owner submits,
a statement certifying that the dwelling unit(s) is exempt
from the provisions of this Section, the basis upon which
exemption is claimed, and such additional documentation
as may be required by the Community Development
Director in order to establish the exemption.
Unit #2 is exempt from Chapter 26.530 of the Code. "RMF Housing" is defined in Section
26.104.100 in part as, "a dwelling unit which has in its history ever housed a working resident". The
term "Working Resident" is defined in Section 26.104.100 of the Land Use as, "a person as defined in
the Affordable Housing Guidelines". A person qualified to occupy employee housing under the 2007
Aspen/Pitkin County Employee Housing Guidelines must,
be a full-time employee working [work a minimum of 1500
hours per year] in Pitkin County for an employer whose
business address is located within Aspen or Pitkin County
[]; or a retired person who has been a full-time employee in
Pitkin County a minimum of fours years immediately prior
to his or her retirement.
Herb has extensively researched the historic use of Unit #2, and interviewed several people with
first-hand knowledge. The first owners of Unit #2 were Jerrold L. and Elaine C. Morris. The Morris'
were part-time residents/second home -owners who never worked in Pitkin County whatsoever, no less
full-time. In 1979, the Morris' sold the unit to Gail Cottingham Koch. Ms. Koch was also a part-time
resident/second home owner who never worked full-time in Pitkin County. In 1993, Gail Cottingham
Koch allowed her long-time friend and part-time secretary, Joan Fitzpatrick, to live in the unit for the
remainder of her life, but this was long after Ms. Fitzpatrick had retired from full-time employment.
Ms. Fitzpatrick lived in the unit until she passed -away in 2006. The unit was then sold to the
Molner's/Ute Waters. No one who ever lived in Unit #2 was a full-time Pitkin County employee (a)
while they lived in Unit #2, or (b) for the four -years immediately preceding their retirements.
Herb has obtained and respectfully submits herewith the sworn affidavits of (i) himself, (ii)
Geoff Simons, the Trustee of the Gail Cottingham Koch Revocable Trust, (iii) Suzann Resnick, who has
lived in Unit #4 at 1116 Waters since it was built, and was the wife of the developer, Mike Resnick, and
(iv) Gail Cottingham Koch's long-time friend and personal nurse, Melanie Crandall. All of these
individuals have first-hand knowledge of the historic use of Unit #2, and all have stated, under oath, that
no "working resident" has ever lived in Unit #2, nor has the unit ever "housed" a working resident.

Section 26.530.03013. of the City of Aspen Municipal Code certifying that Unit #2,

"working resident" by reference to the definition in the Affordable Housing
Guidelines, and that the Affordable Housing Guidelines define an
"Employee/Qualified Resident/Buyer", as someone who works a minimum of
1500 hours per calendar year in Pitkin County, or a retired person who worked

14. Ms. Koch was a part-time Pitkin County resident, and never worked
more than 1500 hours in Pitkin County.
15. Ms. Koch had a long time friend, and part-time secretary, named
Joan Fitzpatrick.
16. In or around 1993, long after Ms. Fitzpatrick had ceased working
full-time, Ms. Koch allowed Ms. Fitzpatrick to reside in Unit #2 rent-free for the
remainder of her life.
17. During the years Ms. Fitzpatrick lived in Unit #2, I observed that
Ms. Fitzpatrick was semi -retired and did not work full-time.
18. I have spoken with Suzanne Resnick, who has lived in Unit #4 since
the Ute Waters Apartments were constructed (and still lives there) (an affidavit of
Suzanne Resnick is being submitted herewith). Ms. Resnick has confirmed that
(a) Ms. Fitzpatrick was semi -retired when she lived in Unit #2, and (b) no one
other than the Morris' lived in Unit #2 from the time the apartments were built
until I moved into Unit # 1 in 1974.

19. Based on my personal knowledge of the use of Unit #2, therefore, I
