MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Leslie Lamont, Planner
RE: Sweeney Conditional Use for Detached Accessory Dwelling
Unit
DATE: l ismaiilL11 6 1291
SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to enlarge and deed restrict, to
Resident Occupancy, an accessory outbuilding. The applicant
seeks a conditional use for a detached accessory dwelling unit.
APPLICANT: Welton Anderson representing John Sweeney
LOCATION: 533 West Hallam Street
ZONING: R -6
APPLICANT'S REQUEST: Conditional Use review for a detached
accessory dwelling unit.
REFERRAL COMMENTS: Please see attached referral comments from
Roxanne Eflin, Historic Preservation Officer for the City of
Aspen
STAFF COMMENTS: Ordinance 60 amended Section 5 -508 of the Land
Use Code to incorporate detached accessory dwelling units. The
General Provisions for accessory dwelling units, found in Section
5 -508 (A), that pertain to this application are as follows: an
accessory dwelling unit shall contain not less than 300 square
feet and not more than 700 square feet, parking shall not be
required for studio or one - bedroom units, an accessory dwelling
unit shall be deed restricted to Resident Occupancy, and detached
accessory dwelling units shall only be permitted on parcels that
have secondary and or alley access... Flo
The applicant proposes to deed restrict and ( expand an existing
detached dwelling unit. T tructure's 34k square feet is
proposed to be expanded to 'S2. quare feet which includes a one
car garage. The structure is located on the alley and after the
expansion w 1 remain a one -b droom unit /,
Section 5 -508 (B) identifies the Qeview standards for a detached
accessory dwelling unit as follows:
1. The proposed development is compatible and subordinate in
character with the primary residence located on the parcel
and with development located within the neighborhood;
RESPONSE: The expansion and refurbishment of this building will
be similar to the Victorian -era style of the primary residence.
The roof pitch, materials, windows, scale, and massing are
derived from the approach used with the existing outbuilding.
The mean height of the expanded outbuilding will be 16 feet.
Although the total height of the detached accessory building will
be 19' -4" which is greater than the height of the primary
residence, the accessory structure is smaller in scale than the
primary residence and the primary residence is only one story.
2. Where the proposed development varies from the dimensional
requirement of the underlying Zone District, the Planning
and Zoning Commission shall find that such variation is more
compatible in character with the primary residence than the
development in accord with the dimensional requirements.
RESPONSE: Within the R -6 zone district the height of a detached
accessory dwelling unit may be increased to 16 feet. According
to the plans, the mean height of the structure is 16 feet.
3. The Planning and Zoning Commission and the Historic
Preservation Committee may exempt existing non - conforming
structures, being converted to a detached accessory dwelling
unit, from Section 5 -508 B. (a -g) provided that the non -
conformity is not increased.
RESPONSE: The applicant cannot build into the rear yard as it
would increase the non - conformity of the required total setbacks
for rear and front yards. For a parcel containing an accessory
structure the total for front and rear yard setbacks must be 20
feet. A setback must be clear from the ground to the sky. The
accessory structure is located within the rear yard thus
preventing any further encroachment into the rear year setback by
the accessory structure. A proposal to renovate the existing
primary structure does encroach into the front yard setback.
This issues needs to be reviewed by the zoning officer, however
this is not problematic for the conditional use review of the
accessory dwelling unit.
Section 7 -304 identifies the following standards for a
conditional use review for an accessory dwelling unit:
A. The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals,
objectives and standards of the Aspen Area Comprehensive
Plan, and with the intent of the Zone District in which it
is proposed to be located; and
RESPONSE: This proposal is in accordance with the goals of the
Cottage Infill Program. The proposal will secure another deed
restricted dwelling unit for Aspen's housing inventory.
2
B. The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the
character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed
for development and surrounding land uses, or enhances the
mixture of complimentary uses and activities in the
immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development;
and
RESPONSE: The conditional use is an expansion of an existing
structure. According to the application, the expansion is
compatible and subordinate in character with the primary
residence. The roof pitch, materials, windows, scale, and
massing are derived from a similar approach as the original
outbuilding. The addition will match the architecture of the
existing residence and be consistent with other carriage houses
in the neighborhood. Outbuildings are a distinctive
characteristic of the West End. The Cottage Infill program was
originally designed with this type of land use pattern in mind.
C. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of
the proposed conditional use minimizes adverse effects,
including visual impacts, impacts on pedestrian and
vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery,
noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties; and
RESPONSE: There is no proposed change in the use of this alley
structure. Although the proposal is to increase the height of
the accessory building the applicant maintains that the expanded
structure will not render visual impacts to surrounding
neighbors. The original plans proposed to decrease the distance
between the buildings from 5 to 3 feet. Staff was concerned that
a wall was being created along the property line. The recent
plans maintain the 5 foot distance between buildings, which is
required by the Zoning Code.
D. There are adequate public facilities and services to serve
the conditional use including but not limited to roads,
potable water, sewer, solid waste, parks, police, fire
protection, emergency medical services, hospital and medical
services, drainage systems, and schools; and
RESPONSE: All the facilities exist on site.
E. The applicant commits to supply affordable housing to meet
the incremental need for increased employees generated by
the conditional use; and
RESPONSE: The application creates a deed restricted, Resident
Occupied unit, thereby adding another deed restricted unit to the
inventory.
3
0
F. The proposed conditional use complies with all additional
standards imposed on it by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan
and by all other applicable requirements of this chapter.
RESPONSE: This application complies with all the standards set
out in the conditional use review process.
RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office recommends that the Planning
and Zoning Commission approve the conditional use with the
following conditions:
1. Prior to issuance of any building permits for remodel of the
accessory dwelling unit or the principal residence, the
applicant shall provide a deed restriction to the Housing
Authority for approval. The restriction shall state that
the accessory unit meets the housing guidelines for such
units, meets the definition of Resident Occupied Unit, and
shall be rented for periods of six months or longer. Upon
approval of the deed restriction by the Housing Authority,
the applicant shall record the deed restriction with the
Pitkin County Clerk, Recorders Office and Planning
Department.
The floor areli4ef the detached accessory dwelling unit shall
not excee• •uare feet, the mean height shall not exceed
16 feet and - distance between the two buildings shall not
be decreased beyond 5 feet.

RE: Sweeney Conditional Use Review for an Accessory
Dwelling Unit
Dear Welton,
This is to inform you that the Planning Office has completed its
preliminary review of the captioned application. We have
determined that your application is not complete.
Section 7 -602 requires demolition of any structure included in
the Inventory of Historic Structures to be approved by the HPC.
Ordinance 1 amended the definition of demolition to state that
... "a building shall be deemed to be demolished if less than 50%
of the existing primary residential structure remains in place."
Since the Sweeney house is listed on the Inventory, please
provide information which verifies that it does not need to be
reviewed by the HPC. Please submit this information by February
15th.
Please also submit two (2) additional copies of the plans for
referral agencies. We will need these as soon as possible.
Welton, although the application is incomplete, we have scheduled
if for review at a public hearing by the Aspen Planning and
Zoning Commission on Tuesday, March 5, 1991 at a meeting to begin
at 4:30 pm. The Friday before the meeting date, we will call to
inform you that a copy of the memo pertaining to the application
is available at the Planning Office. Please note that it is your
responsibility to post the subject property with a sign for the
public hearing and to mail notices to property owners within 300'
of the subject parcel.
If you have any questions please call me. Thank you.

DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION /CONDITIONAL USE HEARING
For a detached accessory dwelling unit under
Ordinance No. 60, series of 1990, "Cottage Infill"
Dear Leslie,
This application is for the expansion of an existing non -
deed restricted accessory dwelling unit, consisting of a
new second floor addition and conversion of a part of the
first floor to a one car garage. The accessory dwelling
unit's square footage will increase from 349 square feet
to 682 square feet.
The conditional use hearing requested will be to review the
following:
1. Deed restriction and formal recording of the
existing accessory dwelling unit.
2. A variation request under the Cottage Infill
Ordinance for a reduction in the minimum distance
between buildings from 5 feet to 3 feet.
The proposed development is compatible and subordinate in
character with the primary residence. The roof pitch,
materials, windows, scale, and massing are derived from
a similar approach as the original Victorian outbuilding.
The proposed accessory dwelling unit is on the alley and
therefore does not visually impact the neighborhood.
The scale of the alley addition is modest and will match
the architecture of the exisitng residence and be consis-
tant with other carriage houses in the neighborhood.
The development plan meets the following Conditional Use
Standards A through F:
A. The proposal is in accord with the goals of the
Cottage Infill program to provide additional
resident housing.
B. The proposal is a reuse of an existing compatible
structure.
C. There is no change in the current location, char-
acter, or use of the structure. No significant
