All of these documents are in the Planning Office and can be looked at by the public during regular office hours. City/County Planner Kane then summarized the Growth Management Plan for the public. The Plan started in 1975 as a genuine approach to move away from large lot zoning as a land use control in the City and County. RS-20 and RS-30 and other zoning techniques are devices that have been designed to slow the rate of growth and deal with the growth problems in the rural parts of the county. The City is looking at what may be amore equitable system of setting an annual growth rate, standing behind the growth rate and then allocating a certain number of units every year. Kane compared the plan to the Petaluma, California plan but also has differences. The plan deals with trying to create a balance between beds and ski capacity in Aspen and Snowmass. The theme is to try to divert as much growth as is possible in the Snowmass/Brush Creek area. The plan states a goal for residential development of 312 dwelling units a year which is 3.4%. The 3.4% was derived from the following consider- ations: 1) The growth in the Aspen metro area should proceed at a pace by taking the existing zoning, calculating the maximum development potential under the existing zoning, taking 80% of that and spreading it over 15 years; 2) Looking at the build-out phased program for Snowmass, 191 units a year, and then 3) took the resulting average which is 3.41 and applied that to the downvalley portion of the County. The result was 3.41 and/or 312 units. The plan now consists of four separate areas those being: 1) The City of Aspen; 2) The Aspen Metro Area; 3) Snowmass/Brush Creek; 4) Downvalley portion which includes Woody Creek, Stanwood etc. The plan is evolving into two parts, The City and The County. The City proposal is for 50 units in the City of Aspen; within that there will be 3 separate growth components being analyzed: 1) Permanent residential development; 2) Units being built in the lodging districts; 3) Timing control on commercial space in the. City. Because there will only be 50 units allowed to be built r''"1 - z - ' '~ •sunoy aoL}}o ,aeLn6a,a 6u~.anp o~Lgnd ayq ~fq paMa~n aq uEO puE aoL}}p s,~,aaL~ ~q~~ ayq u,~ a{~} uo a,aE pue p.aooa,a ayq oqu~ sq.~q~yxa ayq paggiwqns qy~a{{ •suo~q~pawwoooe gsi,anoq oq pau}egaad puE aoL}}G 6uiuueLd ayq ygLM,6uL~{.aoM.wo.a},panLona yoLyM UOLgEW.1D}UL }o sgLq~yxa aaaM paquasaad gyoaH gEyM •dn,aquE~ suEH }o }LEyaq uo 6uL,aeadde osLE sEM ay geyq pauoLquaw uadsy uL ~'au,aoggy uE `gyoaH !,'puy •aa.ayq asEyd uo pasnoo} puE paddL~s aaaM OMq pUE auo sasEyd °dWg ayq yq~M geyq sLaa} .aaquod •si ~'q~unu~uoo ayq u~ anssL ayq geyM uo 6uLpuadap •~qa `aseyd 6uisnoy aa~foLdwa uE `aseyd uoi~Ls~nboE coeds uado ue `aseyd uo~gEq,aodsuE,aq e `asEyd quawa6euew ygMO,a6 E (£ `ueLd ,aeaL' c, (Z `ueLd Le.aaua6 E (L :6uLaq slags asoyq `pazLue6ao aq pLnoo 3L Moy }o slags pey yo~yM uELd Le.aaua6 E paMoys uayq .aaq~aod •gdope oq SLeLJ}}0 ayq sL yoiyM ,ano} asEyd oq uo 06 uayq pLnoys q~ `auop s~ g2yq uayM puy •oMq pue auo aseyd quawaLdw~ ~~ saop ao op q~ saop }o sw.aaq uL dWg ayq. agenLena-a.a uayq puE ~'qunoo puE L'gLo ao} aseyd 6uLuueLd u6~sap e `~'qunoo puE ~fgLo ayq ,ao} asEyd ~'oLLod puE sLEO6 E y6no.ayq o6 oq puE p,aEOB L'aosinpy UOLgeq,aOdSUE,aj suaziq L~ ay} ~fq ~'Lquaoa,a pagonpuoo sassaooad }o puL~ awes ayq qno ~',a,aeo oq sao,anosaa ayq uan~6 aq puE `ga6pnq E a,aeda,ad oq pagoa,a~p aq pLnoys }}eqs ayq a,ao}a.aayj •ssaoo.ad 6uLuueLd an~suaya.adwoo E ~'gtunwwoo s~yq ui qno I~.a.AEO oq oMq pue auo saseyd y6noayq ~oeq 6uLo6 pagsa66ns ,aaq,aod •uELd u6Lsap ,aEaL' 8 ou uaaq sEy a,aayj •op oq 6uLL'.aq sL dWg ayq geyM ~LLeoL} -LO ads gEl{M ygLM gLEap puE saLo~Lod pue sLEO6 ayq. pays~Lgegsa puE pagELnoLgaEaa gEyq aseyd a q,useM a,aayq dWg Fquno6 uL~gid ayq uL uo~gE,agsn,a} ayq sLaa} ,aaq,aod •MaLnaa SLeLJL}}0 o~Lgnd ayq uayq puE }}Eqs 6uLuuELd ayq.

DCNVIR R E C O R D O F P R O C E E D I N G S Public Hearinq City/County Planninq and Zoning Commissions May 5, 1977 Mr. Hecht explained the figures which were provided by the Planning Office and the figures which he had on his exhibit. There was a I large discrepancy between the two figures. In the Growth Management Plan calculations, there were no square feet or no units to be developed in the lodge-1 areas. Mr. Hecht pointed out that there is, however, a large parcel that has an additional 9,000 square feet to be developed. Also, in the lodge-2 area there was a cal- culation difference. Applying the same formula that the Planning Office has applied, for. Hecht came up with an additional 23 units, a total of 35 units a year. Mr. Hecht felt that the number that the Planning Office is dealing with under the original GMP sta- tistics is unreasonable. City/County Planner Kane commented stating that the Planning Office will come back with different thinking about the lodge units. Rick Sabbatini Rick Sabbatini mentioned the fact that he owned Lots K through 0, Block 77 which is about 9,050 square feet of developable square feet. Sabbatini pointed out the fact that that land had not been mentioned in the Growth Management Plan at all (more or less what Andy Hecht pointed out). Sabbatini also mentioned that he has never been contacted as to determined his intent of interest in his property. City/County Planner Kane said that that would be taken into consideration when the GMP is being revised. Sue VanZandt Sue VanZandt was present on behalf of the Sierra Club and read and submitted for the public record a "Statement for Public Hearing on the Growth Mnagement Plan" which is on .file in the City Clerk's Office and can be looked at during regular business hours. Marty Hershey Marty Hershey asked to reserve until May 25th in which to submit an economic feasibility report on Part II on the Growth Management Plan. Olaf Harklund Olaf Harklund was present on behalf of Snowmass Capital Creek. Harklund read into the public record a statement which Snowmass Capital Creek Caucus had prepared. The letter basically stated their support to control growth rate at a minimum of 3.4% growth rate. Steve Child Mr. Child had additional comments from the Snowmass Capital Creek Valley. Steve Child pointed out discrepancies in the GMP such as the listing of 111 dwelling units in the Snowmass Capital Creek Valley. Mr. Child asked that the County start an extensive program of land purchase or of purchase of development rights as a means to preserve open space and agricultural use in the valley. Mr. Child questioned what was going to be done as far as an energy source both as far as electricity and people who drive automobiles. Steve Senoner Mr. Senoner pointed out the fact that he had talked with several individuals who have spent time and their money in the hotels in Aspen and have pointed out that there is not one first class hotel in Aspen and questioned why that is. Chairman Collins mentioned that that has been discussed and it is being worked on. Fryingpan Caucus Karen Smith of the Planning Office read the letter for Alfred Gardner into the record. Generally, the letter stated that the Fryingpan Caucus had agreed that the concept applied to the control of growth in Pitkin County were not necessary applicable to the portion of the County and Fryingpan Valley. It was also agreed that the growth management plan or some adaptation was sound for the main stem of the Roaring Fork Valley but that the emphasis of the impact of skiing was not valid for our valley. The growth in the Frying Pan Valley will come from summer recreation unless Yak Mountain is approved and the Thomasville-Eagle road is substantially upgraded. Also, Karen mentioned that they did agree~wi h the ski policy portion of the plan in that it gave low priority to ski development which is what Yak Mountain might be. Also, they did -3- ~.., - ti - •~aaM ayy. u~ aa3eL ao~};p 6u~uueLd ayy o; aaggaL a y~wgns o~ 6u~o6 sem ay qey~. pauo~~uaw aa6~weag •aW osLy •6u~pL~nq ay; punoae 6u~deospueL aaow aq pLnoM aaay~ asneoaq an~3oea~y.e aaow aq pLnoM s6u~pLinq aaLLe~ sLaa; pue s6u~pLLnq }o gy6~ay ayy ;no pa~uLod osLe aa6~weag •awoo o~ saeaL' L'uew ao} eaae ssewMOUS ayy u~ ,fneay os aq Sou pLnoM ~.OedWL ayy `aouapuadapuI do aay~an} ao/pue sa~uuy aL~~~q •a ~ `uadsy }o pua 3sea ayy o~ eaae ssewMOUg ayy woa} paysuyiw~p seM uo~ge~aodsuea~ ayq }~ }eyq ~La} aa6~weag •aW 'MOU Woa} .AeaiC E pa}EnL2na aq UBO ~L I~eM OU SL aaa43 sasn Le~~.uap~saa a0} pasn 6u~aq aae seaae Lei~.uap~sa.~ yonW MoyuMOU~you s~ yL ;~ fey; 3Lad 6U2n3 'aaMSUe ~,upLnoo a0L}}0 6u~uueLd ayy pue woa; pan~aap SLM aagwnu ~ey~ aaayM passe suen3 •ao} pay.unoooe spaq 5L9`5 aaaM aaay~ L'pnys ayy uL pao~}ou ay auo aseyd uL ~ey~ ~.no pa~uLod suen3 ~'aa;;ap •way~ ygLM ~aoM o} pue as~wo.adwoo o~ a~~L pLnoM pue ~e pa~ooL aq ueLd ayy ~eyy passe pue 6u~aeay ale} a uanL6 aq L'ay~ ~ey3 passe pLa~}sgaeH •eaay ~aaag LMp ayy ;o ;uawdoLanap ~'ue 6u}}uanaad s~ dWg pasodoad ayy y.eyq gsaM43nos ayy ;o uo~~eaodaop quawdoLanap LLayo~~W ~'q ~La} si ~I •saea~' aaayy. ao} L';unoo ay; o~ umou~ spew uaaq aney ~aaag LMp ao; sLesodoad ;uawdoLanap ayl •quaw -doLanap ~aaag LMp ~'uap oy pau6~sap ~'yunoo ayy L'q sanow Le~o~pnCaad ;o uaa~~ed a aq off. pan~aoaad s~ dWg pasodoad ayy }o uo~~eyuaw -aLdw~ pue uoL~.dope ay; ~eyq qLa} s~ ~I •uaa~~ed Leo~pnCaad (£ pue •L'3unoo ay; ui seaae aaygo LLe }o ssaoxa uL ae} a;ea y~MOa6 paMOLLe ue y~iM eaae ~uawdoLanap a~eaedas a se dWg ayy u~ papnLou~ seM ssewMOUS ~eyy y.oe} ayq seM pauo~~uaw osLy •;uaw~sanu~ paquaiao quawdoLanap }uasaad ;o a;LL oiwouooa ayy 6u~anp paMOLLe aq o~ 3uawdoLanap payed~o~3ue ayy ;o aaeys a6aeL L'Lageuo~gaodoads~p a ssew -MOUs ;o saadoLanap ayy o~ papaeme (o pue `swea6oad ao sueLd ~~sueay ~'~unoo aLq~ssod oy an «eLaa suo~;dwnsse paziLeaaua6 pue aangewaad pa;daooe (q pue `dWg pasodoad ayq ao Le~yua~od ;uawdoLanap ~aaag LMp ayq }o quawa6paLMOU3oe ao oy. aouaaa}aa ou apew (e :yoLyM (09L-9L# uoL~nLosaa) ssewmouS ao} aLnpayos pue wea6oad ~uawdoLanap a }o Lenoadde u~ pa~Lnsaa yoLyM pa3onpuoo sem uo~ssiwgns Leaauag ssewMOUs ay; ;o Mainaa pue uo~~e «o6au ayl :suoseaa 6u~MOLLo; ayy ao; ssewMOUs papaoooe ayy y;LM paaedwoo se ~uaw;eaa3 Lenbaun a~nq~gsuoo pLnoM wao} 3uasaad s3~ u~ dWg ayq }o uo~y.dope ayy ;ey; ~La} s~ ;I °~uaw~eaal Lenbauq (Z •ssa~oad anoge ayy ;dwa-aad pLnoM sLaa} •duog •doLanap LLayo~~W `dWg ayq y.dope of •~aaag LMp pue ssewmous yyoq }o SOL~.sLaa}02•AeyO pue sa~~~~.uenb ~uawdoLanap pue y~.MOa6 ayy L'q pagoa;;e 6uLaq ao 6u~~oa;}e iCL~.UeOL}LU6LS ao} Le~yuayod ~eaa6 y~~M wea6oad ao ueLd uo~}egaodsuea~ ~fqunoo a }o uoLyeLnwao} pue `uo~ssnosLp `sis,fLeue anLgoe ayy (E `.aoed pue y3MOa6 LLeaano uL suoLyey.Lw~L paged -LOL~UE ~'LaeaLo yOLyM SaLOLLod a0 sueLd ~UaWa6eUpW y}MOa6 II•~.Un00 }0 uoL~eLnwao} ani~oe ayy (Z °Leiyua3od ~uawdoLanap ~aaap LMp ay; }o uo~ssnos~p 6u~nuL~uoo pue ;o a6paLMOU~ L'}~unwwoo Leaauag (L :papnLou~ aaaM suo~~~puoo 6utMOLLo; ayy `ssaooad Lenoadde pue 6ULMaLAaa au,~ uI •d~ysaapeaL,aLgisuodsaa pue ~C}LL~gede~ uanoad }o uoigeaodaoo 3uawdoLanap a }o d~ysaauMO ayq aapun s~ ~oeay ayy asneoaq ~uawdoLanap L'~~unwwoo pauueLd ~'Lan~}ona~suoo a }o ~f3~un3aoddo (o pue ~~.uaw -doLanap eaae Lis }o uo~yeLaaaoo pue uo~suedxa o~ an~~eLaa ssewmous pue seaae ~~s spueLy6~H/~L~waa~~n8 uaaM}aq ~aaag LMp ;o uo~3eooL (q `.UOL~e}aodSUea~ }0 anssL ayy oy an~geLaa ssewMOUs pue pLaLj ~'paes ao/pue uadsy uaaM~aq ~aaag LMp ;o uo~}eooL a43 (e :}o asneoaq Letquay.od 3uawdoLanap sey pUe anb~un s~ a~~s ayl •eaae ~aaag LMp ayy. ;o Le~~ua~od 3uawdoLanap queo~;Lu6Ls pue anbLun ay; az~u6ooaa o} sL~e} ~'oLLod pasodoad ayy. qey} y.La} s~ ~I •~aaag LMp ao} 6u~uueLd p~Len }o uoL;dwa-aad (L :uoLstnaa paLyl `ueLd ~uawa6eueW y~.MOag pasodoad ay3 }o uo~yenLena ayy. off. anL~eLaa suaaouoo 6u~MOLLo} ayy passaadxa pue ~aaag LMp se o~ paaaa;aa ssewMOUs pue uadsy uaaM~aq pueL }o ~oea~ aa0e pg9`L a ;o aauMO ay; sL UOL~eaoda00 ayq }eye pa~e~s /~LLeOlseq aa~yaL ayl •paooaa o~Lgnd ay} o~u~ peaa aq 03 aay.~aL a why y}LM pey pLa~}s;aeH •aW •}saMy~noS ay} }o uo~;eao -daog yuawdoLanap LLayo~~W }o }Leyaq uo 3uasaad seM pLa~}s~aeH •aW •L'aLLen a~ay~ }o swaLgoad ~uawdoLanap aeLno~~aed a43 0~ uan~6 aq ueLd quawa6eueW y;Hoag ay; oq uani6 SBM qEy} uo~y.ua~y.e awes a43 y.ey~ os FaLLell ued6u~~'aj ay; ao; Sao;;a 6u~uueLd yu~oC a u~ aay~a6oq u~oC L';unop aL6e3 pue u~~l~~d ;eye use ,"`~ aa6iweag sueH suen3 ~caa;}ap PLa~;syaeH •p 3aagob (p,~uoo) snoneg ued6u~L'aj LL6L 5 eW uoLss~wwog u~uoZ pue uiuueLd ~unop/ ~~g u~aeaH o4lgnd eaworoao rueua~firac eo., oexvex R E C O R D O F P R O C E E D I N G S Public Hearing City/County Planning and Zoning Commissions May 5, 1977__ Chairman Collins asked if there were further comments from the public, there were no further comments.
