Exhibit A
26.96.030 Criteria Applicable to all Temporary Uses
When considering a development application for a temporary use, City Council shall
consider, among other pertinent factors, the following criteria as they, or any of them,
relate thereto.
A. The location, size, design, operating characteristics, and visual impacts
of the proposed use.
Staff Finding:
The proposed event will be held in an existing structure. The event is community activity
which will be held for a short duration. The impacts are minimal.
B. The compatibility of the proposed temporary use with the character,
density and use of structures and uses in the immediate vicinity.
Staff Finding:
The structure is currently used as a lodge and is located one block southeast of the
Commercial Core (CC) zone district. The temporary use is compatible with the
character, density and uses in the immediate vicinity.
C. The impacts of the proposed use on pedestrian and vehicular traffic and
traffic patterns, municipal services, noise levels, and neighborhood
character.
Staff Finding:
The applicant is holding a literary festival prior to the book bazaar. A temporary use
permit is not required for the literary festival, and staff does not anticipate additional
impacts generated from the book bazaar.
Staff Finding:
The applicant is requesting the temporary use for one day, although it is anticipated the
book bazaar will only be held for 2-3 hours. A temporary use has not approved for this
parcel previously.
D. The duration of the proposed temporary use and whether a ternporary
use has previously been approved for the structure, parcel, property or
location as proposed in the application.
E. The purposes and intent of the zone district in which the temporary use is
proposed.
Staff Finding:
The property is zoned Lodge/Tourist Residential (L/TR), and the purpose of the zone
district is "to encourage construction and renovation of lodges in the area at the base of
Aspen Mountain and to allow construction of tourist-oriented detached, duplex and multi-
family residential dwellings."
F. The relation of the temporary use to conditions and character changes
which may have occurred in the area and zone district in which the use is
proposed.
Staff Finding:
There are no changes in the surrounding land uses that would prohibit this event.
