in the City Council Chambers. Members present were Chic Collins, Olaf Hedstrom, Tom Isaac,
Frank Baranko, John Schuhmacher a_nd Joan Klar. Also present were Bill Kane and Karen Smith of
the Planning Office.

A11' in favory~ motion approved..
Schiff Preliminary Smith referred to the Planning Office memo of November 11, 1977, and
Plat, Public City Engineer, Dave Ellis' memo of November 4, 1977. This is an
Hearing existing structure that is applying for coudominiumization approval.
The structure is the Cooper Avenue Victorians. They received con-
ceptual approval from P & Z and City Council. She recommended that
Ellis' concerns be attached to the motion as conditions of approval.
She noted that l~3 of his comments in inapplicable as the adjacent
neighbors were notified. She said the Fire Marshall had requested
that Smoke Detectors be placed in each unit. Dorothy Nuttall, City
Attorney, said this is not the City's authority but that the appli-
cant can be asked to comply if possible. The Planning Office recom-
mends apnrovai subject to resolution of the concerns of the City
Eagineer, 5 month minimum lease restriction, 90 clay right of first
refusal to existing tenants and payment. of the park dedication fee.
Klar asked why the Fire Marshall made the request for Smoke Detectors
and if this was general policy. Smi*_li said this was a new amendment
to the Building Code although it has not yet been passed. They can
not rnake this a condition of approval but they can suggest it to the
applicants. Collins asked what authority .the City has to enforce
conditions 5 and 6 of E11is' memo. Smith said she had not talked
with Nuttall, City Attorney, about these matters and did nat know.
Gideon Kaufman, representing the applicants, said although they were
not required to have smoke alarms, he would try to convince them to
comply. lie said to underground the pocaer and telephone lines would
cost them about $3,000. Nuttall was not sure if this could be re-
quired. He felt it was unfair to require them to underground these
lines when no one else in the neighborhood has. Baranko asked what
the alternatives were. Kaufman said they could join an improvement
district. Klar asked who puts together an improvement district.
Kaufman said he believed it is the City. Klar asked the cost of
installing the fire alarms. Kaufman said about $35 per unit. Collins
asked 'now many units there were. Kaufman said 5.
Baranko asked Smith about condition 4 of Ellis' memo. Smith said
that Ellis concluded that it worse to bring it into conformance than
to leave it out of conformance. Additional parking spaces would be
hard to fit on the lot. She recommended they condition i.t on eight
parking spaces. Kaufman said they would try to fit eight. Smith
suggested they condition the approval upon resolution of matters
between the City Engineer, the City Attorney and the applicant.
Kaufman said that condition 1 and 2 of Ellis' memo had already been
resolved.-
Klar moved to approve the preliminary plat approval for condomiriumi-
zation for the Cooper Avenue Victorians with the following conditions:
1) Riverside Drive be changed to Riverside Avenue, 2) the common
elements of the condominium property be identified on the plat,
3) "parking areas" be delineated and 8 parking spaces be provided,
4) the new owner join an improvement district and an easement for
the transformer should be granted on the plat and located so as to
not interfere with any of-the existing parking, 5) 6-month minimum
lease restriction, G) 90 day right of refusal to existing tenants,
7) payment of park dedication fee, Hedstrom seconded. Baranko asked
about tenant displacement. Kaufman said there would be none. All
in favor, motion approved.

Regular Meeting Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission November 15, 1977
Klar asked if this was just in the residential district that they
have not adopted an FAR. Smith said yes, in R-6, R-15, and R-30.
Smith said they were trying to follow the County FAR for consisten-
cy. One problem is that a substandard lot will be penalized below
the square footage. Another concern is that the County does not
include basements in the square footage and the City does. Hedstrom
said he felt the FAR was generous. Kane said that from a design
consideration the FAR could make for some buildings that are out
of scale, particularly in the West End. He felt this would be an
architectural consideration and would like to hear from some design
experts. Collins noted that some samples would help them get a better
feel for this. Kane said that the FAR would prohibit two story
structures and would promote one story ranch style houses. Baranko
noted that there are probably ten lots left in the West End to build
on. John Doremus said he thought there were at least 30-40. Klar
asked if they could go on a neighborhood scale. Kane endorsed this.
Hedstrom suggested an organized tour to site examples. Klar asked
for a study session after the tour to discuss their findings. Smith
suggested Joe Wells of the Planning Office to site examples and
sample blocks. Collins asked that they get a variety of examples
with Victorians and other structures. He suggested at least 12
inspections. The meeting was set for November 22, 1977, at 4:00 PM
beginning at City Hall and ending in the Council Chambers for a
study session.
Klar moved to adjourn the meeting, Isaac seconded. All in favor,
motion approved. Meeting adjourned at 6:15 PM.
