RE: Two Guys From Italy, Inc. - Use Determination
DATE: July 18, 1978
The attached application asks that a use determination
be made that a combination jewelry store, art gallery and
hair salon is an appropriate use to be located in the C-l
zone district. The applicants have leased space in the Aspen
Professional Building located at Hunter and Hopkins and plan l-J (: CCI.!>iti
to operate a combination facility as described at that location.
The intent of the C-l zone district is to provide for the
establishment of commercial uses which are not primarily oriented
towards serving the tourist population. There are no conditional
uses permitted in this zone district. However, a jewelry store
and art gallery are listed as permitted uses in the zone district.
The applicant is seeking a use determination that a combination
of a jewelry store, art gallery and hair salon is a permitted
use in the zone district.
Our: only concern ,dth this proposal is that it not become
a hair salon with jewelry and art simply on display in. the room.
Given the satisfaction of this concern, the planning office
would have no problems with the application.

RE: Application for Use Determination
Dear P & Z Nembers:
This is an Application for a Use Determination bv Two
Guys from Italy, Inc. The principals in the corporation are
David Bromberq and Richard Molinaro. The corporation presently
operates a combination jewelry store, art gallery and hair
salon in Boulder, Colorado. The Applicants have presently
leased space in the Professional Building located at
Hunter and Hopkins and plan to operate the sa~e type of
facility at that location. The Professional Building is
zoned C-l and the Applicants seek a determination that this
type of facility is a permitted use in that zone.
The intent of the C-l zone according to the Aspen City
Code is "to provide for the establishment of commercial uses
which are not primarily oriented towards serving the tourist
population". The Applicants submit that their facility is
not primarily oriented towards the tourist population.
As mentioned, the location will have basically three (3)
related uses. The first two, jewelry store and art gallery
are listed as permitted uses in the zone. These will be
operated by Mr. Bromberg who designs and sells very high quality
jewelry and shows and sells very high quality art.
The hair salon will be operated by Mr. Molinaro and
will constitute less than ten percent (10%) of the business.
The hair salon operation is directed primarily toward the
hair design for models for magazine layouts, advertising, etc.
These models will work either for the corporation or will be
sent to this facility by outside agencies. Rick and David
are both involved in the preparation of layouts for national
magazines and in fact work for the Denver Magazine. David's
jewelry is used in these layouts to compliment the hair
designs of Richard.

Although the hair salon will also do work for the public,
this will be done by appointment only and will in no way be
oriented toward the tourist.
The C-l zone is limited to various listed retail commercial
establishments and service commercial establishments as well
as similar uses. This Application is not for determination
that a hair salon is a permitted use in that zone, but rather,
that the high class, inter-related operation described above
is a permitted use.
Thank you very much for your cooperation in this matter.
The Applicants respectfully request that you in fact determine
that the above-described use is a permitted use in the C-l zone.
