COMMONEIV DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
The Temporary Use permit application for the Greenwald Pavilion Tent, 1000 N. Third, Permit
No. 0009.2009.ASLU has been withdrawn by the applicant. It was the Applicant's original
intention to pursue the Temporary Use as a back -up measure in case the construction work on
the permanent Greenwald Pavilion tent fell behind schedule or could not be completed. The
permanent tent was completed on time, therefore eliminating the need for the temporary
structure for the 2009 summer season at the Institute.
Please find a letter from the Applicant's representative, Jim Curtis, stating the official withdrawal
and request for refund on unused portions of the application fee.
Cheers,

CITY OF ASPEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
CITY OF ASPEN (hereinafter CITY) and % —v
(hereinafter APPLICANT) AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that City of Aspen Ordinance No. 57 (Series of 2000)
establishes a fee structure for Land Use applications and the payment of all processing fees is.a condition precedent
to a determination of application completeness.
3. APPLICANT and CITY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed project, it
is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the application.
APPLICANT and CITY further agree that it is in the interest of the parties that APPLICANT make payment of an
initial deposit and to thereafter permit additional.. costs to be billed to APPLICANT on a monthly basis.
APPLICANT agrees additional costs may accrue following their hearings and/or approvals. APPLICANT agrees he
will be benefited by retaining greater cash liquidity and will make additional payments upon notification by the
CITY when they are necessary as costs are incurred CITY agrees it will be benefited through the greater certainty
of recovering its full costs to process APPLICANT'S application.
4. CITY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for CITY staff to complete
processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or City Council to enable the Planning
Commission and/or City Council to make legally required findings for project consideration, unless current billings
are paid in full prior to decision.
5. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the CITY's waiver of its right to collect
full fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay an initial deposit in the
amount of $ which is for _ hours of Community Development staff time, and if actual
recorded costs exceed the initial deposit, APPLICANT shall pay additional monthly billings to CITY to reimburse
the CITY for the processing of the application mentioned above, including post approval review at a rate of $220.00
per planner hour over the initial deposit Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date.
APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay such accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing, and
in no case will building permits be issued until all costs associated with case processing have been paid.

I. APPLICATION SUMMARY
This Application is for the following:
Temporary Use Permit for Summer 2009
Code Section 26.450.030
This Application is illustrated by the items outlined below and attached.
1. Location Map
2. Photographs of 2005 - 2008 Tent
3. Site Plan of 2005 - 2008 Tent
4. 2008 City Council Temporary Use Permit
Based on discussions with the Community Development Office, it is likely that
the Greenwald Pavilion Tent SPA Amendment Application submitted December 20,
2007 will not be acted upon by the Aspen City Council in time for the Aspen Institute to
prepare for the 2009 Summer Season. Therefore, this application is a back -up safety net
for the 2009 Summer Season.
The Aspen Institute requests a Temporary Use Permit for the 2009 Summer using
the same Tent, Tent location and City Council approval granted for the 2008 Summer
Season except the Institute would like to use the Tent 1 day earlier, June 29 vs. June 30,
to accommodate the Aspen Ideas Festival, which is scheduled for June 29 to July 5, 2009.
The proposed 2009 Summer schedule is:
Set -up
Tent
- June 21 —
28
Use
Tent
- June 29 —
Aug. 20
Take -down
Tent
- Aug. 21
—Aug. 28
A. Need for the Tent
The Tent gives the Institute a venue to hold larger, but limited, keynote events
during the Summer Season in a wonderful outdoor setting. The events held in 2007 and
2008 were the following:
2007 Events
• July 02 — 08 Aspen Ideas Festival
• July 10 Socrates Lecture
• Aug. 04 Aspen Institute Board of Trustees Lecture
• Aug. 09 John Edwards Lecture
• Aug. 13 Institute & ACIH & Cleveland Clinic Health Lecture
TempUsePermitSummer2009Request
Aug. 15 John McCain Lecture
2008 Events
• June 30 — July 6 Aspen Ideas Festival
• July 21 King Abdullah Lecture
• July 25 -26 Tibet Symposia
• Aug. 04 Justice Kennedy Lecture
• Aug. 14 John McCain Lecture
The Tent is sized to hold the larger keynote events of 400 to 750 people. No other
facilities at the Institute are sized to hold these larger keynote events. The Doerr- Hosier
Center was never designed nor sized to handle the 4 — 5 largest events which occur only
in the summer. The Doerr- Hosier Center was always sized to handle 250 — 350 people
with both banquet and seminar style seating with supporting food service for both winter
and summer operations.
Secondly, the Institute will continue to try to hold the larger events in the
Benedict Music Tent as it has done in the past. However, the Music Tent is used virtually
every day by the Music Festival from late June to late August, and especially during the
high -use weekend days.
II. TEMPORARY USE PERMIT, CODE SECTION 26.450.030
Code Section 26.450.030 is addressed below.
A. The location, size, design, operating characteristics, and visual impacts of the
proposed use.
Same as 2005 - 2008 and as described herein.
B. The compatibility of the proposed temporary use with the character, density and
use of structures and uses in the immediate vicinity.
Summer tents have historically and consistently been used on the Aspen Institute
property. Tents offer flexible venues to hold summer events in a wonderful
outdoor setting. The Aspen Institute feels the Greenwald Tent was very successful
from 2005 - 2008. As noted, this Application is a back -up safety net for the 2009
Summer Season given the possibility Aspen City Council may not act on the
December 20, 2007 SPA Amendment Application in time for the Institute to
prepare for the 2009 Summer.
TempUsePemitSummer2009Request 2
C. The impacts of the proposed temporary use on pedestrian and vehicular traffic
and traffic patterns, municipal services, noise levels, and neighborhood
character.
Same as 2005 - 2008.
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.
As described herein. The Tent was previously approved and used during the
Summers of 2005 - 2008.
E. The purposes and intent of the zone district in which the temporary use is
proposed.
The Aspen Institute parcel is zoned Academic - Specially Planned Area. The
conference, gathering, educational purpose of the Tent is consistent with the
Academic zoning of the parcel and the Academic use of the surrounding Institute
buildings.
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.
The Aspen Institute campus was established in 1950's as a center for the
exchange of ideas and open dialogue. Summer conferences, gatherings, and
events have historically been the focus of the Institute, and summer tents have
historically been used on the campus. The Aspen Institute campus has only
changed modestly over the past 50 years, but significant residential development
surrounding the Institute has occurred on Red Mountain, Pitkin Green and Second
Aspen Subdivision.
G. How the proposed Temporary Use will enhance or diminish the general public
health, safety or welfare.
The Aspen Institute feels the summer events supported by the Tent, like the
Aspen Ideas Festival, are beneficial to and supportive of the Aspen community.
