Exhibit B: Growth Management Carry-Forward Review
26.470.030.F, Accounting Procedure:
"The City Council shall consider the following criteria in determining the allotments to be
carried forward: "
1. The goals and objectives of the Aspen Area Community Plan.
Staff Response: One of the main goals in the 2000 AACP was to control growth at a 2%
rate. The current Growth Management System does this for new free-market, commercial,
and lodging development through the use of allotments. Most of the available allotments
for 2009 went unclaimed. While this means the City of Aspen is within the 2% permitted
growth rate for 2009, rolling the allotments over could result in a higher growth rate in the
future if those allotments are used.
Z. The community's growth rate over the preceding five year period.
Staff Response: The growth rate has been fairly consistent over the past few years, and
has almost always used all the available allotments. City Council has not chosen to roll
over the leftover allotments in the past few years.
3. The ability of the community to absorb the growth that could result from a
proposed development utilizing accumulated allotments, including issues of scale,
infrastructure capacity, construction impacts and community character.
Staff Response: This is a review criterion in growth management when a
development proposal is brought forward. Based on current data, staff believes there is
enough physical infrastructure to accommodate new development.
4. The expected impact from approved developments that have obtained allotments,
but that have not yet been built.
Staff Response: There are a number of projects that have growth management approvals,
but do not yet have final approval from City Council. These include the Aspen Club,
Bidwell, and the Lodge at Aspen Mountain.
In addition, there are a number of projects that have received growth management
allotments and City Council approval but are still in construction or have not started.
These include Jerome Professional Building, Stage 3, Boomerang Lodge, and Hannah-
Dustin (commercial portion).
