Regular Meeting Planning and Zoning Commission April 19, 1977
Chairman Chic Collins called the meeting to order at 5:10 PM
with members Roger Hunt, Olaf Hedstrom and Tom Isaac present.
Also present were Hal Clark, Bill Kane, John Stanford of the
Planning Office and City Attorney Dorothy Nuttall.
Collins moved to table the minutes from the April 5th meeting,
seconded by Hunt. Motion carried.
Zoning code
resolution John Stanford brought up the draft resolution for proposed
changes to the zoning code. Collins motioned to adopt the
draft resolution. Hunt moved to adopt it and Hedstrom
seconded it. Stanford suggested that this resolution be
tabled until May 3 when there could be a public hearing on
rezoning Main Street C-1. It was agreed to table this until
May 3.
Citizens Aspen/Pitken County Citizens Advisory Board for Transportation
Advisory Board
John Stanford updated P&Z on the report made by the Citizens
Advisory Board (CAB). Four consultants(Mike Schneider from
BBQ&D for mode alternatives, Steve Lockwood from Allen M.
Voorhees for transportation management, Tom Martin from
Economic Research Associates for financing alternatives and
Howard Ross the coordinator) assisted the CAB and staff. Last
week the consultants finished their .final report which will be
about 500 pages long.
The seven major points were discussed by Stanford at length.
1) Land use. Snowmass should be developed as a self-contained
community with adequate services to support itself. Snowmass
east and west villages should be developed as auto-free
communities. This is the most critical part of the recommenda-
tions because when Snowmass master plan was approved for 2424
units last fall there was an impression that a high volume
transit system would be developed between Aspen and Snowmass.
That is some years off. Secondly, it was assumed that it would
cost between $13 and $14,000,000. It will cost about $30,000,000,
which is beyond the means of this community. The burden is on
Snowmass developers to create an innovative alternative to total
car dependency.
2) Transportation management plan. Alternative modes of
valleywide transportation should be considered. Cost-sharing
would lessen the burden on the city/county. Bus service has
to be upgraded. Pre-arrival marketing is important to informing
potential visitors that they can survive without an auto.
Experimental summer bus service could be developed to deal with
some of the summer problems. Skier parking should be updated,
especially Snowmass. East and West end of town intercept lots
can be established. We can encourage bus service between
Sardy Field and Stapleton Internation airports and Aspen. That
is a long range goal, even though we would like to discourage
rental cars from coming up from Denver now.
Hunt suggested train service. This program is lacking in long-
range planning. It only seems like a five-year plan.
Stanford said that the state highway department was putting
together a rail plan. Their focus is mainly freight and coal
movement off the west slope. We are going to have someone
plugged in there to look at tourist movement.
It was interjected that hopefully they will see the handwriting
on the wall when it comes to people movement.
3) Capital Phasing Plan. This suggests a two-lane busway on
Highway 82. The first phase would be from Aspen to the airport
and then simultaneously develop the right-of-way from the airport
to Snowmass. The greatest transit impact is on that stretch

given two policy considerations: 1) six-month minimum lease
and 2) a ninety day notice to existing tenants to allow them
to purchase the units at market value.
Hunt made a motion to recommend exemption of the Alpine Acres from
strict application of the subdivision regulation as the intent
of those regulations have been complied with. The following
conditions apply: 1) non-exemption of the park dedication fee;
2) compliance with R-15 zoning conditions applied to the
property during annexation and 3) six-month minimum lease
restrictions. Collins seconded. All in favor. Motion approved.
Edlin/Kimbrough Duplex Condominimums - Subdivision Exemption
Edlin/Kimbrough
condominiums- Hal Clark discussed this issue. Mr. Kaufman was the legal
zation representative for Nancy Edlin and Mary Jo Kimbrough. The use
and occupancy agreement is already in existence. The property
is zoned R-15. Our recommendation is for approval subject to
these restrictions: 1) payment of the park dedication fee;
2) six-month leases; and 3) 90 day notice to existing tenants
for the right to buy units at the market value.
Collins questioned division in ownership. Kaufman said he
would explain then he had a special request.
Kaufman said that the use and occupancy was like condominiumiza-
tion but without actually dividing the interest on the deed.
Each side has an undivided one-half interest in the whole.
Legally the ownership is split just as in condominiumization.
Instead of two deeds there is only one. This was done before
park dedication fees were used for use and occupancy. Clark
interjected that it would currently be treated as a subdivision.
Kaufman went on to say that the law was changed.
Kaufman requested that the Edlin/Kimbrough Duplex be exempt from
the park dedication fee. The intent of the park dedication
fee (PDF) is to be placed upon division of new interest, i.e.
condominiumization or new building. In this case there was a
prior in time splitting of the interest by use and occupancy.
Today that would require a PDF. When this was done there was
no required fee. Since intent and interest were divided before
the required fee, and since the code does not speak about going
back in time to tax things which were exempt at the time, I
would say that the intent is clear to not impose PDF on things
that were exempt or subdivided prior to the enactment of PDF.
Eight months ago Edlin and Kimbrough bought the duplex. One
of the banks has since required them to condominiumize the duplex.
Thus forcing them to go through the subdivision requirement
even though it is already divided. They could stay the way they
are now and not pay a PDF. Because it was a prior in time
division, it would be a perfect exemption.
Collins said that it was rather unusual arrangement. Did two
lending institutions take mortgages even though a single title?
Kaufman said yes. One of the banks felt better having them
condominiumize. Instead of one deed, each will have their own
deed. Both banks own the first mortgage on the property.
Nuttall commented that the exemption can be granted at the
discretion of the commission. It would strictly be a policy
decision.
Clark's understanding is that the provision for exemption
applies to units that were managed under the housing authority
principles. Our position is that if Kaufman wants to put the
units under the housing program, we would recommend the
exemption. Otherwise we would question if he would have the

or businesses for rental to their employees.
We should control condominiumization. We will lose.. rental
housing. If we bottle up subdivisions with growth
management plans and with stringent subdivision regulations
and don't control condominiumizations, condominiumization of
existing apartments will provide the outlet for people seeking
profits. That is the only way the demand will be satisfied.
We will lose all of our rental housing. Rentals do not rise
in price as fast as other housing. Owners can only charge
what the market can bear. If overcharge occurs, then over-
crowding occurs and physical deterioration of property happens.
There is dispersed housing rental units in town. We need a
balance. between rental and owner housing in this community.
We will lose the dispersed rental housing if ownership becomes
predominant. Another Silverking will be created. It is time
to mitigate detrimental effects.
There are problems with condominiumization: 1) displacement,
2) devouring of rental market, and 3) non-resident use of
the units.
We need policies which would allow for condominiumization to
happen and to protect against the problems. 1) Protection
for tenant to stay out lease term. 2) Protect against
price appreciation. 3) Protect against against tourist
or residetn use of converted units.
Collins suggested that we look further before making
recommendations. Goodheim said we need a statement of long
term potential and a policy on multi-family dwellings. Hunt
felt a need in the area of restrictions. Isaac said that
we need enducements. Collins stated that the board generally
supported the enducement approach rather than control. It
was decided to discuss this in greater depth at a study
session on April 26.
The meeting adjourned at 7:25 PM.
