RE:
Colorado Riff Raft Temporary Use Permit, Comer of Aspen and Juan Streets
DATE:
May 8, 2000
SUMMARY:
The applicant, Peter Hicks, President of Colorado Riff Raft, is requesting a temporary
use permit to store rafting equipment and vehicles on Lots 7-12, Block II, Eames
Addition, City and Townsite of Aspen, which is located at the intersection of Juan and
Aspen Streets.
The Community Development Department recommends approval of the temporary use
permit for Colorado Riff Raft from May 9, 2000, to September 31,2000, with conditions,
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
Council approved this temporary use in this location in 1998, 1997, 1996, and 1995,
BACKGROUND:
Colorado Riff Raft has been operating in Aspen since 1979, Several sites in Aspen have
been used for storage and staging of equipment. This site has proven to be better
logistically than other sites, Colorado Riff Raft did not use the property in 1999 for a
storage area because it was used by the Aspen Skiing Company as a construction staging
area for the Sundeck.
CURRENT ISSUES:
This company has maintained a good relationship with the surrounding neighbors and
City staff received no formal complaints in 1998.
FINANCIAL IMPLICA nONS:
There are no discernible public costs associated with this request.
STAFF COMMENTS:
26.450.030 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,
r-.
r-.,
Staff Finding:
Colorado ,Riff Raft is proposing to use this site to store approximately 20 vehicles and 6
trailers with rafts. This site is approximately 18,000 square feet and is used in the winter
as a parking lot for Aspen Skiing Company employees.
Raft guides for the morning trips will be on site generally from 6:30 a,m. to 9:00 a.m.
Raft guides for the afternoon trips will be on site generally from II :30 a.m. to around
12:30 p,m. The raft guides will return to the site between 4:00 p,m, and 6:00 p.m. All
guides are expected to be finished by 7:00 p,m. Periodically, guides will be on site for
logistics and maintenance. No raft customers will be on site,
The applicant should take appropriate measures to minimize the impacts of the temporary
use on site, including drainage from washing equipment, tracked mud, parked vehicles,
and any trash disposal containers.
B. The compatibility of the proposed temporary use with the character, density and
use of structures and uses in the immediate vicinity,
Staff Finding:
This property is zoned R-15 PUD. Zone , districts in the immediate vicinity are L/TR, P,
& AHl,PUD, The uses in the area are mostly residential and small lodges, The
applicant has worked with the neighbors to ensure they are not disturbed by the
operation.
C. The impacts of the proposed use on pedestrian and vehicular traffic and traffic
patterns, municipal services, noise levels, and neighborhood character,
StaffFinding:
The temporary use will have very little impact on the traffic patterns in the area. The
applicant should make proper arrangements with the Water Department for water to be
used, Noise levels are expected to be minimal and diminished by the surrounding
vegetation,
D. The duration of the proposed temporary use and whether a temporary use has
previously been approved for the structure, parcel, property or location as
proposed in the application,
Staff Finding:
The proposed temporary use will be from May 9, 2000, to September 31,2000. A
temporary use permit was approved for this use for the Summers of 1998, 1997, 1996
and 1995 at this same location.
E, The purposes and intent of the zone district in which the temporary use is
proposed,
Staff Finding:
The putpose of the R-15 zone district is "to provide area for long-term residential
putposes with customary accessory uses," The site, however, is somewhat separated
from the surrounding uses, and the applicant has maintained a good relationship with the
neighbors. Due to these factors, Staff feels that this temporary use is compatible with the
area.
~'.
,~
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:
Because Colorado Riff Raft has support from the neighbors, Stafffeels that this
temporary use is compatible with the area. The use is also compatible with the
surrounding LlTR zone district as they both serve the summer tourist market
G. How the proposed temporary use will enhance or diminish the general public
health, safety, or welfare,
Staff Finding:
The storage of rafting equipment on this site will not diminish the public health, safety, or
general welfare, Successful local businesses enhance the general public welfare. A bear
proof trashcan should be available on-site so that waste may be put in its proper place in
effort to keep the area clean and free of trash,
REFERRAL AGENCY COMMENTS:
The Engineering Department recommended that they Riff Raft keep water and sediment
from running into the street or public right-of-way while washing their equipment The
Parks Department commented that no Colorado Riff Raft employees shall be allowed to
park in nearby Willoughby Park. Environmental Health commented that Colorado Riff
Raft shall keep the parking lot organized and free of waste. The Water Department
commented that Colorad~ Riff Raft shall set up an account with the Water Department
for their water needs.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Community Development Department recommends approval of the Colorado Riff
Raft temporary use permit for the storage of raft equipment and vehicles on Lots 7-12,
Block II, Eames Addition, City and Townsite of Aspen, with the following conditions:
I) The duration of this temporary use permit shall be from May 9, 2000, to
September 31,2000,
2) Raft guides may be on site from 6:30 a.m, to 9:00 a,m., from II :30 a,m, to 12:30

reasons anytime between 6:30 a.m, and 7:00 p.m. No raft guides may be on site
between 7:00 p,m. and 6:30 a,m.
3) The applicant shall take appropriate measures to minimize the impacts of the

Dear Council Members,
As residence owners on South Aspen Street we feel a need to oppose the use of
the parking lot on the corner of Juan and Aspen Streets for a staging area for river rafting
operations.
We believe the peaceful use of the residential neighborhood ",iIl be seriously
affected by the acthity. There wiIl be noise, traffic and generaIly unsightly activity not
in keeping with the existing tranquility of the neighborhood.
Let this purely commercial activity stay in an area with other such activities. The
use is clearly not fit for those who live there all or part of the year as we do.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours truly, - . (1 ,

Re: Public Hearing
Monday, May 8,2000
Dear Mr; Lindt:
I recently received Notice of the Public Hearing to be held on Monday, May 8, 2000,
before the Aspen City Counsel. As I reside in Denver, I will not be able to attend that
meeting. I would, however, respectfully request that you advise the Council that my \vife
and I object to the temporary use permit from May I, 2000 to September 31, 2000,
regarding the parking lot on the comer of Juan and Aspen streets as a staging area for
river rafting operations. My "life and I do not believe that this is an appropriate use of
that property. It will cause considerable noise in the mornings when they are preparing
for trips to go out. as well as in the evenings when trips return. In addition, it is my
assumption that it will be necessary for them to keep items of river rafting equipment on
the property, which will detract from the area. I believe that there are other areas down
valley which would be more appropriate for this type of usage. Therefore, we
respectfully object to the issuance of the temporary use permit.
Very truly yours,
....---.' -.....

Re: Riff Raft Special Use Permit
1. Riff Raft needs to have an account set up for water use and they otherwise
comply with Water Dept standards. In the past they have used water at this site as part
of the rafting operations and I believe they had an arrangement with the adjoining
property to use a hose bib.
2. There is no parking allowed at the Willoughby Park/Lift One A Park for patrons,
employees or other persons associated with the Riff Raft Company. The Park is signed
for 2 hour maximum parking and they need to be responsible for making sure people
know this information.
3, Riff Raft needs to be aware of the Solid Waste and Wildlife Protection laws. They
should not have any food waste (wrappers, old lunches, chips, etc...) on-site, Also they
are going to be held responsible to keep the lot organized and free and clean of trash to
prevent the area from becoming a nuisance to the neighbors.
4. Equipment washing in the parking lot has been a problem in the past. All
sediment that is washed off of the equipment must be contained and prevented from
flowing onto the city streets and/or the public right of way,
