Space Applicability, no portion of Second Tier Commercial Space may be used
as storage, office, and the like, for another commercial space.

Aspen Municipal Code, issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or Letter of
Completion for ground floor commercial space is contingent upon the issuance
of the Certificate of Occupancy or Letter of Completion for all second tier space

and second tier commercial space,to be signed by the Community Development
Director, shall be required as part of the Development Documents, and shall be
required prior to issuance of a core and shell or tenant finish building permit.

units located in the existing building have been taken out of use, the affordable
housing credits replacing these units shall be provided to the Community
Development Department within 180 days of conclusion of notice to City Council
and call up as described at Section 26.415.120 of the Municipal Code. The
presentation and extinguishment of the affordable housing credits in connection

that said covenants be released by Council.

approval recommended by the Development Review Committee,found in Exhibit

Building Permit review.
13. A development application for a Final Development Plan shall be submitted within
one (1) year of the date of approval of a Conceptual Development Plan. Failure
to file such an application within this time period shall render null and void the
approval of the Conceptual Development Plan. The Historic Preservation
Commission may, at its sole discretion and for good cause shown, grant a one-
time extension of the expiration date for a Conceptual Development Plan
approval for up to six (6) months provided a written request for extension is
received no less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date.
