The overall aesthetic effect of the lighting at night is subdued, gentle and very low -key. I am extremely pleased with what has been accomplished and I commend you and Tom for your helpful input in arriving at this pleasing solution. I hope at some point you will view it personally. All 4 modifications proposed in the letter of 12/30/87 have been fully accomplished; including cutting down light poles, removing sodium ballasts, relamping with 60 watt incandescent bulbs and the shielding of certain fixtures. (Because of snow and frost, the light at the north end of the property along the highway will be temporarily delamped for now, and will be moved 30' in the Spring, as proposed.) Since we have made a "good faith" attempt to create an acceptable lighting plan, and I think have created a highly successful result, I would request that you take the necessary action to renew and /or reissue our Certificate of Occupancy issued 12/10/87, which carried a 30 -day limit on the lighting solution. Please let me know when we may pick up the Certificate. Thank you. Si,` erely, iavid F. Gibson, AIA DFG:gc cc: W. Dreuding, Zoning J. Edwards, Esq. L. Koval M. Schreiner, Alpine C.M. W.

After further discussion with Len Koval (the Owner) and Bill Sherman of Chadwick Electric, we would like to offer the following modifications as a proposed permanent solution to the exterior lighting plan which will comply with the spirit and intent of Resolution 86 -1 governing the project: 1. Exterior Walkway Lights (36). Remove all high pressure sodium ballasts and retrofit for incandescents, relamp with 60 watt incandescent bulbs. 2. Pole Lights (18). a. Reduce height of 14 fixtures from 9' -8" + to 4' -10 ". (This will place the light source at approximately 4' -2 1/2" above ground level.) The four fixtures to remain at their present height shall be the two by the pool and the two in the remote (southwest) parking lot. b. Remove all 18 high pressure sodium ballasts and retrofit for incandescent bulbs, 60 watts each. 3. Flood Lights (2) at West End of property along highway. a. Both fixtures to be relamped with 150 watt incandescent bulbs. b. Fixture at remote corner to be relocated 30' further from highway. 4. Lights at Auto Entrance. The two ground mounted sodium lights will be moved closer to the archway and shielded. The "B" flood fixture will be relamped with a 150 watt bulb. The two fixtures mounted to the underside of the arch will be retrofitted with shields. 418 E. COOPER AVENUE • ASPEN, COLORADO 81611 • 303/925.5968 Mr. Steve Burstein Page Two December 30, 1987 5.

Galena Street Aspen, Co. 81611 Re: Crestahaus Exterior Lighting Dear Steve, Please allow me this opportunity to respond to your letter of 12/3/87. We wish to mitigate the lighting by modifyng the present plan to create an exterior lighting which is "sufficiently obscured to prevent glare as viewed from State Highway 82 and the surrounding neighborhood," thus complying with the requirement of the Resolution 86 -1. We have prepared for your inspection and site review, two different techniques for modifying the perceived "glare" and "illumination levels" of the existing lights: 1. Shields around walkway lights and pole lights directing the light downward and preventing any visibility of the source; and 2. Changeover of the balasts of fixtures from sodium to incandescent (70 watt). We invite you and Tom Vorhees to come by Tuesday evening the 29th after 5:00 PM to view our propposed mitigation measures and perhaps we may be able to determine through observation what is a mutually acceptable modification.

Another alternative avail- able to you is to amend the approved Crestahaus GMP plan pursuant to Section 24- 11.7(b) of the Municipal Code. 3. Following are the specific areas of concern that we have identified where the lighting deviates from what was approved: a. The Building Permit plans show baffled incandescent lights ( "D" and "E ") along the hallways and covered walkways. Exposed lens high pressure sodium lights have been installed instead, giving off at least five times the light in Tom Voorhies' judgment. We believe that the intensity of light, the yellow color and visibil- ity of the light source are all factors that should be addressed in any modified plan. We suggest that you consider using the fixtures now in place, replacing the bulbs with incandescent and devising a shield around the lights. At least one light, in the northeast corner stairway, is not shown on the plan and is directly visible from the Highway. A number of the lights, particularly on the second floor, are still visible even with the horizontal trim board. b. The numerous landscape lights (Fixture A) were repre- sented to be bollard lights, indicating to us fixtures 4 feet tall or less (as defined in the County's Illumination Code, in the GMP application they were referred to as "landscape lights "). The glare problem from these lights seems to be due to the 9' height and the reflective material in the top of the fixture. The fact that the Highway is lower than the site makes those tall lamps even more visible. Furthermore, the 9' high lamps are prominent features on the site that may be considered obtrusive. You might consider lowering the height of the lights, decreasing wattage, and changing the reflective material in the top of the fixture. c. The projector flood lights shining on the west wall of the old Crestahaus building were not shown on the electrical plans. Removal would be most appropriate. One of the lights shines in motorists' eyes as you drive west. We suggest that you at least consider reducing the wattage from what appears to be 300 watts to 150 watts and that they be flood type lights rather than spot type lights. d. The flood lights on the entrance arch were represented to be high pressure sodium, as installed. They are not as close to the arch as represented which results in glare for motorists exiting the property and giving 2 excessive illumination to the arch. We suggest that they be moved closer to the arch and shielded. The lamps on the arch should be shielded. An additional "B" fixture has been installed near the arch that was not shown on the plan. Please contact me when you have decided on the course of action you wish to follow. If you intend to amend the plan, we should set up a pre - application conference. The Building Department and Planning Office are also happy to meet with you if you would like any clarification of the points in this letter. Please be advised that we will be informing the Building Department to hold off on any final Certificate of Occupancy on the project until the problems are rectified.

After inspecting the site, reviewing the accident history at the location and assessing the potential mitigation measures, we have identified a series of feasible measures which will minimize the traffic hazard at the location. Site Description The Crestahaus Lodge is a small (15 units) lodge on the eastern fringe of Aspen which is currently undergoing renovation and expansion to a future total of 35 units. As part of the improvement program, the sight distance condition at the access point along Colorado State Highway 82, which has been a longstanding source of concern, is being reconsidered. The legal speed limit on Highway 82 at the access point is 30 miles per hour. Eastward from the Town of Aspen, Highway 82 crosses the Roaring Fork River as it curves to the right. Near the end of this curve, as the top of the hill is reached, the Crestahaus Lodge is located to the south (on the inside of the curve). As shown in Figure A, the sole existing driveway serving the Lodge is located at the end of the curve, approximately 1100 feet east of the Roaring Fork Bridge. To the east of the access point, the highway is relatively straight and level, affording at least 1000 feet of sight distance. Sight distance to the west of the access point is more than adequate. To the west of the access point, however, the vertical and horizontal curves, combined with a 7' high stone retaining wall adjacent to the Lodge structure, combine to limit sight distance for a vehicle wishing to turn left from the existing driveway to approximately 190 feet, as defined by the methodology set forth in The State Highway Access Code (2 CCR 601 -1), Transponation Systems • Transit • Parking • Vehicular Access • Pedestrian & Bicycle Planning • Traffic Operations & Safety • Signal Design • Traffic Impact Studies Mr. David Gibson Page 2 January 6, 1987 as amended by the Colorado Highway Commission on August 15, 1985. The sight distance for eastbound vehicles on the highway approaching the access point is also approximately 190 feet. Sight distance must be considered for both the driver approaching the access point from the east on the highway (to enable a safe stop if a vehicle is blocking the highway), and for the driver wishing to exit the lodge and turn left towards Aspen (to allow the identification of adequate gaps in the eastbound traffic stream). The State Highway Access Code calls for a minimum of 180 feet of sight distance for the first case, the eastbound driver on the highway, and 390 feet for the vehicle exiting the lodge. Thus, sight distance is adequate for vehicles approaching the access point on 82 travelling at the posted speed limit, but is not adequate for exiting vehicles to safely identify acceptable gaps in the traffic stream. Accident History A review of the accident history for the access location revealed no reported accidents in the last six years which are attributable to the existence of the driveway. A record of one accident was uncovered, however, in which the access point was a factor. On August 25th, 1979, two motorcyclists proceeding east on Hwy 82 at or above the posted 30 mile- per -hour speed limit came around the curve immediately west of the access point as a car was turning left onto the highway from the access point. The motorcyclist in front was able to avoid the car by passing in the empty westbound lane. The second trailing motorcyclist apparently had his view of the exiting car blocked momentarily by the leading motor- cyclist; by the time the second motorcyclist was aware of the obstruction he was unable to avoid the vehicle, and slid into the side of the exiting car, resulting in injuries to the motorcyclist, as well as extensive damage to the vehicles. Potential Alternatives Remove and reconstruct the retaining wall further to the south of the present location. As the existing lodge structure is only 10 feet from the retaining wall at the closest point, the wall could only be moved approximately five feet to the south before the foundation to the structure would be endangered. This course of action would be expensive, and would result in the loss of the two large trees currently between the building and the retaining wall. Moving the wall back 5 feet from it's present location would increase sight distance for exiting vehicles by only 40 feet (to 230 feet); moving it back the maximum amount without modifying the lodge structure (which would nevertheless entail extensive foundation work) would increase this distance to 300 feet. Even with extensive reconstruction, therefore, sight distance would still fall appreciably below the 390 feet called for in the State Access Code. Mr. David Gibson Page 3 January 6, 1987 Move the existing access point. The exiting access point could be moved by approximately 50 feet to the west while remaining on the Crestahaus parcel. This would effectively extend the sight distances by 50 feet, to approximately 240 feet. For a vehicle travelling eastbound on Highway 82, this distance would provide slightly more than a second of additional time to react to a vehicle exiting from the Lodge. As the sight distance problem is for exiting vehicles only, it would alternately be effective to move the exiting lane to the east, keeping the entering lane at its present location. Provide additional warning devices along Highway 82. Currently, the access point is preceded in the eastbound direction with a yellow "Hidden Entrance" warning sign. Additional warning devices, including flashing yellow warning lights, could potentially be installed on the eastbound approach. The existing sign, however, is the appropriate response considering the low historical accident rate at the location, as spelled out in the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Federal Highway Administration, US Department of Transportation, 1978. Additional warning devices are thus not warranted and would lead to a "cluttered" roadside. Provide a paved driveway clear of sand, gravel, ice and snow. A clean paved surface will increase the ability to quickly accelerate or brake to avoid a potential accident. For exiting drivers who are faced with the need to react to the sudden appearance of an eastbound vehicle rounding the curve, the ability to quickly take evasive action could well spell the difference between accident and near - accident. Install and maintain a mirror, mounted on the north side of the road opposite the exit driveway and angled to provide a view of the eastbound approach. These mirrors have been proven useful in wide application in European countries, as well as in scattered application in the this country. Versions of such mirrors are available constructed of plated steel which are virtually indestructable. This mirror could be mounted part way up the embankment on the north side of the highway such that the post does not pose as an additional encroachment on the highway or safety hazard. Provide signage along the exit driveway. As many drivers unfamiliar with the location use and will continue to use the access point to the Crestahaus Lodge, signs indicating the potential danger, such as "WATCH FOR APPROACHING VEHICLES," or "CAUTION, LIMITED SIGHT DISTANCE" would be a prudent step. In addition, if the mirror discussed above is installed, a sign stating "USE MIRROR WHEN EXITING" would also be appropriate. Recommendations Based upon the analysis presented above, it is recommended that the following mitigation measures be implemented. These measures, depicted in Mr. David Gibson Page 4 January 6, 1987 Figure B, will assure that the hazard posed by the limited sight distance will be minimized: o Reconstruct the driveway as far east as possible on the property; o Provide a paved driveway surface adjacent to the highway, and maintain this driveway clean of sand, gravel, ice and snow; o Install and maintain a mirror opposite the exit point to provide an indication of approaching eastbound traffic on the highway; and o Post and maintain a sign on the exit driveway warning drivers leaving the Lodge of the potentially dangerous conditions and instructing them to use the mirror to check for oncoming traffic. 0 0 0 We trust that this analysis will assist you in the further planning of the Crestahaus Lodge.

Our approach to the study looked at two major concerns: 1) Limiting the "developed" rate of runoff to equal the "historic" rate of runoff, thereby, not affecting neighboring properties. 2) Limiting the "developed" groundwater level to the "historic" groundwater level. Utilizing the rational method, we first determined the historic and developed rates of runoff for the site. We have determined that it might be of your best interest to handle the "developed" runoff by a surface retention pond versus drywells. Cur determination was founded on the fact that only 18 cubic feet of retention volume is required for . the site. By retaining the 18 cubic feet of runoff on the surface, there is no longer a need for drywells; thus, solving the groundwater concern. To solve the developed runoff affects neighboring ped affecting g ng properties, a con- trolled outlet, or 12" CMP, can be utilized to limit runoff leaving the property to historic rates. It should be located just downstream of the retention pond. The following table presents the results of the calculations: 100 -year historic runoff • - 2.91 cfs 100 -year developed runoff - 3.18 cfs 5 -year historic runoff - 1.21 cfs 5-year proposed runoff - 1.24 cfs Retention pond volume required = 18 ft I would like to make two further recommendations concerning drainage for the site. First, I recommend that consideration be made in keep- ing flow coming down Highway 82 from entering the site. Topography indicates that flow historically bypasses the site and continues down to the Riverside Ditch. Special attention in grading may be needed to ensure that this flow pattern is maintained.

Re: Crestaha P Conceptual Submission The new proposal for the parking lot and landscaping plan does not change my comments from October 22, 1985. The only change made was to the southwest corner. The applicant angled the parking lot area and added several more aspen trees. This resulted in the loss of only one parking space. This new plan should minimize the visual impact on the adjacent Riverside Subdivision. MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen City Council THRU: Hal Schilling, City Manage i " �� FROM: Steve Burstein, Planning Office +C' RE: Crestahaus Lodge GNP Allocation DATE: December 10, 1985 SUMMARY: The Planning Office and Planning Commission recommend that Council grant to the Crestahaus a L -3 lodge growth management allot- ment of 10 units in the 1985 quota and four units from the 1986 quota. The proposal scored well above the threshold required for consideration of allotment. REQUEST: The applicant requests a GMP allocation of fourteen (14) units from the L -3 lodge quota. The fourteen units are part of a program to renovate the existing main lodge of the Crestahaus and the modular house, tear down the outlying cabins, construct a major new wing in the southwest portion of the property, and reconfigure the parking and landscaped areas. BACKGROUND: The L -3 lodge growth management application for the Crestahaus was submitted October 1, 1985. It was the only application submitted in the 1985 competition. ADVISORY COMMITTEE VOTE: At the November 26, 1985 meeting of the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission, the Crestahaus was evaluated in the 1985 lodge growth management competition. Each Commission member individually scored the project; and an average score was compiled that exceeded the thresholds for eligibility of allocation. The Planning Commission also considered and approved three special reviews. Unanimous approval was given for a 32 space parking plan, and therein not requiring extra spaces for employee residents, subject to the condition that the parking area be reconfigured to reduce conflicts with neighbors in the Riverside Subdivision. The Planning Commission voted to grant approval of a GMP exemption for the purpose of a change in use from one residential unit to one lodge unit (the modular house). P &Z voted unanimously to grant approval of the proposed increase in E.A.R. on the site subject to conditions of providing: (1) a new parking and landscaping plan prior to Council's action on allotments (2) a traffic engineering study with regard to problems with the Crestahaus entrance onto Highway 82, (3) soil studies and design correction to eliminate the possibility of an increase in run -off to adjacent properties, (4) an exterior lighting plan, and (5) a corrected plan reflecting technical amendments represented to the Planning Commission. Finally the Planning Commis- sion voted 4 in favor and 2 opposed to recommend to Council to allocate the 10 units available in the 1985 L -3 quota and four units from the 1986 quota to the Crestahaus. PROBLEM DISCUSSION: Quota Available: Quota for the L -3 lodge GMP competition is calculated as follows: Carry -Over Quota Exemption Remaining 0* 10 units 0 ** 10 units *In the two prior years of the L -3 competition, all twenty available units were awarded to the following projects: 1. Applejack - 3 units. 2. Hotel Lenado - 4 units. 3. Nugget - 13 units * *The Shadow Mountain Lodge demolished two rooms in their 1985 upgrading program; and the Molly Gibson Lodge added two rooms through a change in use approved as part of their 1985 improvement program. THRESHOLD AND ELIGIBILITY: In order to meet the basic competitive requirements a project must score a minimum of 60%s of the total points available under categories 1,2,3 and 4 of the GMP competition, amounting to 63 points; score a minimum of 30% of the points available in each category 1,2,3 and 4 (c); and provide housing for at least 35% of the employees generated by the project. Should the application score below these thresholds, it will no longer be considered for a development allotment and will be considered denied. Bonus points cannot be used to bring the application over the minimum threshold. The scoring by the Planning and Zoning Commission was as follows: Crestahaus Average 1. Public facilities and services 5.66 2. Quality of or improvements to design 25 3. Amenities provided for guests 16.16 4. Conformance to public policy goals 27.5 5. Bonus points TOTAL 75.32 This score exceeds all required minimum thresholds. 2 FUTURE YEAR ALLOCATION: Besides the request for the 1985 allocation of 10 units, a request is being made for 4 units of the 1986 units. In addition, 1 unit from the L -3 quota would need to be deducted through the change in use granted by the Planning Commission to convert a residential unit to lodge use at such time as a building permit is issued for this conversion. In our analysis of this issue, we typically examine two aspects of the project: 1. The growth impacts of the project, including whether the request for future allocations will have significant effects on community facilities, and whether the request is for a substantial number of units. 2. The overall quality of the project, including whether having the applicant compete again would result in any practical benefit to the community. In terms of the first criteria, this is the first time a project in the L -3 zone has asked to borrow into the future. When the 10 unit L- 3 quota was established in 1983, it was recognized that some borrowing to make a quality project possible might be needed. It should also be noted that our inventory of L -3 units may be decreasing significantly in coming years due to approved changes in use of the following lodges to employee housing: 1. Alpina Haus - 40 units. 2. Copper Horse - 14 units. 3. Cortina - 17 units. Also proposed is the change in use of 15 units at the Holiday House to meet the needs for housing for the Little Nell Hotel. These potential losses of a total of 86 units, plus the fact that only 4 units are being requested from next year, would provide a basis to support this request, despite the fact that we are also involved in extensive borrowing as regards the L -1 /L -2 quota. This action can therefore be seen as an effort to maintain an inventory of quality units in our "small lodge" sector, and not be judged in relation to the Aspen Mountain POD or Little Nell allocations. As regards the second criteria, in our review of the Crestahaus application, the Planning Office noted several problems with the application that relate to size and number of units of proposal. These problems include the sight - distance of the intersection on Highway 82, the ability to address visual impacts of a larger structure and more intense activity as the impacts effect neighbors, and possibly exacerbated drainage problems. The conditions of special review approvals passed by P &Z in our opinion adequately address these concerns. We therefore recommend approval of the future year allocation of four units. RECOMMENDATION: The project met all required thresholds and the Planning Commission recommends that 10 lodge units be allocated out of 3 the 1985 available L -3 quota and that 4 units be allocated out of the 1986 quota. PROPOSED NOTION: "Move to approve the allotment of 10 lodge units from the 1986 (L -3) quota and 4 lodge units from the 1986 quota, and to direct the Planning Office to draft a resolution formalizing this action ".

ME MORANDU M TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Steve Burstein, Planning Office RE: Crestahaus 1985 L -3 Lodge GMP Submission /FAR Special Review /parking Reduction DATE: November 5, 1985 INTRODUCE ION Attached for your review is the Planning Office's recommended points allocation for the one application submitted on October 1, 1985 for the 1985 L -3 Lodge GMP Competition. The Crestahaus currently contains 15 lodge units and 3 residential units, two of which are for em- ployees. The applicant originally proposed to have 33 lodge and 2 employee units on the site through a combination of GMP allocation of 14 new units and the change in use of 1 residential unit. However, changes to the program have occurred since its original submission including the finding that the three bedroom residence on the site is a single unit and can be changed in use to a single lodge unit, albeit a three bedroom suite which reduced the count by two units. The applicant lost another unit to meet the employee housing requirements of the Housing Authority and a fourth unit is in dispute as to its legality and may be part of the final program if it can be verified. See the charts below for clarification of the number of units.

It must be verified whether or not it is a legal unit and whether or not it has been used historically as a short -term (lodge) unit or long -term (residential) unit. The applicant also proposes to undertake a renovation and reconstruc- tion program. Of the twenty -one (21) units represented as existing, 15 would be renovated and six would be reconstructed. In addition, the applicant requests review of the increase in external Floor Area Ratio (FAR) based on the requirement in Section 24 -3.4 of the Muni- cipal Code for the Commission to establish the FAR in this zone. QUOTA AVAILABLE • Quota for the L - 3 Lodge competition is calculated as follows: Carry - Over Quota Exemption Remaining 0 10 units 2* 12 units * The Shadow Mountain Lodge demolished two rooms in their 1985 upgrading program. PROCESS The Planning Office will summarize this project at your meeting of November 5, 1985, and will review procedures with you and provide a suggested assignment of points for the scoring of the application. The applicant will give a brief presentation of the proposal. A public hearing will be held to allow interested citizens to comment. At the close of the hearing each commission member will be asked to score the applicant 's proposal. The total number of points awarded by all members, divided by the number of members voting, will constitute the total points awarded to the project. A project must score a minimum of 60% of the total points available under categories 1, 2, 3 and 4, amounting to 63 points, and a minimum of 30% of the points available in each category 1, 2, 3 and 4(c) and provide housing for 35% of the employees generat- ed by the project to meet the basic competitive requirements. The minimum points are as follows: Category 1 = 3 points; Category 2 = 11.7 points; Category 3 = 6.3 points and Category 4 = 10.5. Should the application score below these thresholds it will no longer be considered for a development allotment and will be considered denied. Bonus points cannot be used to bring the application over this minimum threshold. This project, should it receive a development allotment, requires additional reviews to be conducted at this meeting, as discussed below in this memorandum. PLANNING OFFICE RATINGS The Planning Office has assigned points to the application as a recommendation for you to consider. The staff met to assess the ratings of the reviewing planner and objectively scored the proposal. The following is a summary of the ratings. A more complete explana- tion of the points assignment for each criterion is shown on the attached score sheets, including rationales for the ratings. Public Facilities Quality Guest Public Policy and Services of Design Amenities Goals Total 5 20 16 23 64 PROBLEM DISCUSSION According to the Planning Office's recommended scoring, the Crestahaus project meets the threshold number of points in each scoring cate- gory. There are some positive features of the proposal that make it an acceptable project, including the architectural design, increase in amenities for guests, general upgrading of the lodge, and willingness to help finance the adjacent bike path. 2 0 PUBLIC NOTICE RE: CRESTAHAUS LODGE GNP GENERAL SUBMISSION AND SCORING SESS ION NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be conducted by the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission on November 26, 1985, at a meeting to beging at 5:00 P.M., in City Council Chambers, 130 S. Galena Street, Aspen, Colorado, to consider an application requesting a lodge growth management allotment for the L -3 zone district for the Crestahaus Lodge. The applicant proposes to add 14 new units and to reconstruct the existing lodge. For further information, please contact the Aspen /Pitkin Planning Office, 130 S. Galena Street, Aspen, Colorado 81611 (303) 925 -2020, ext. 223. /C.

Galena Street Aspen, Colorado 81611 Hello — and thank you for accepting this correspondence with reference to the November 5th hearing regarding the Crestahaus Lodge and their application for re— zoning and expansion. As co— owners of the 1360 Riverside Drive home directly adjacent to the Crestahaus property, Lizabeth Kerr and I wish to express concern with several aspects of the proposed expansion. The limited information that we have received indicates that the size, design, and placement of the new units is somewhat out of proportion to the shape and size of the property itself. In particular, we would not welcome the increased size and placement of the parking area, which is directly adjacent to our property line. While respecting the positive outcome of renovation to this prime Aspen space, it seems appropriate that the Crestahaus Lodge owners and the Planning Commission give due consideration to the impact of such severe re— structuring, affecting all neighboring properties. We shall appreciate your attention and response to our concern. Cordially, A -- Oede Duson There are also some significant problems with the site plan and design aspects of the proposal mainly relating to the hazardous intersection and the compatibility of the project with adjacent neighbors in the Riverside Subdivision. The eastern parking areas would be very close to several residences, causing possible problems with noise, fumes and snowpile meltage draining onto the adjacent, lower properties. In addition, there would be some effect on residents' views due to the proposed new wing of the lodge. RESIDENTIAL PARKING REVIEW The Crestahaus parking plan would accommodate 33 parking spaces for the lodge units and no spaces for lodge employees. Section 24 -4.5 of the Municipal Cocle requires the Planning Commission to establish the number of parking spaces required for residential uses in the L -3 zone district. The question posed by this application is whether 33 spaces is sufficient to serve the units of the lodge as well as the addition- al three employees generated by the new units created. At the present time there are three employees, all of whom live on -site. The Planning Office believes that the Crestahaus has functioned and will continue to function primarily as a motor lodge, meaning most guests will drive into the facility. We feel that the thirty -three parking spaces are not excessive for this project, as there would be a deficit of 6 spaces for employees. However, it is reasonable to expect that a few guests and some employees will be using alternative transportation. This may particularly be the case because of the proposed bike trail improvement. Furthermore, there is adequate room within the circulation and parking area for cars to park temporarily if all spaces were taken. The Planning Office believes that 33 parking spaces should be adequate for this development. We would like to see the parking spaces reconfigured to eliminate or reduce the problems associated with the eastern parking areas. UNIT VERIFICAT ION AND CHANGE IN USE GMP EXEMPT ION Ba sed on a memorandum from Zoning Inspector Bill Drueding dated October 29, 1985 (attached) , the following number and type of units are identified as existing on the property: Lodge Units 17 (including Manager's Unit and 1 employee unit) Residential Unit 1 dwelling unit with three bedrooms Lodge /Residential Unit 1 cabin unit with kitchen There is a discrepancy between the Building Department's inspection report and the applicants' representation of 18 existing lodge units, which would be renovated and rebuilt, and 3 residential units, for which a change in use is requested. Verification must be provided as to whether the cabin with a ,kitchen (C -2) is a short -term lodge unit or a residential dwelling unit. If it is shown that the unit has been used for lodging purposes -- although not conforming to the definition of a lodge room because of the kitchen -- then there are 18 existing lodge units. Another verification issue concerns the same cabin, C -2, as identified by Mr. Guido Meyer, that was moved onto the site illegally in 1970. A variance was requested from the Board of Adjustment in April of 1971, and was denied. In 1973, it was stated in the Board of Adjustment's minutes that the building had still not been moved or demolished. Information provided to the applicant indicates that an addition to C- 2 is the illegal cabin. The applicant should verify if the illegal status of the whole cabin or a portion of it has changed. If the whole cabin is illegal then the Crestahaus has one less existing lodge unit for which the applicant has the right to rebuild. Both of these verification issues should be solved before the allocation is granted, as they may ultimately affect the number of units which will be built 3 in this project. The applicant's request to change the use of the existing modular house can be considered as a change of one residential unit to one lodge unit pursuant to Section 24 -11 .2 (j) . This would allow a three bedroom residential unit to be used as a three bedroom lodge suite. The Planning Office believes that the request has merit as it would have minimal growth impacts and would, in fact, bring a non - conforming use into conformity within the L -3 zone district. It should be noted that there is some neighborhood opposition to this change in use based on the history of the residence. The modular house had only been allowed in 1973 because it was to be a residence and not for lodge use. At that time the Crestahaus lodge was non- conforming in the R -15 zone and a residence would be conforming. It was felt that a residence in that location was more agreeable and compatible with the residential neighborhood. However, the Crestahaus became a conforming lodge use when it was rezoned to L -3 in 1982. With this act, the residence became non - conforming and the legitimacy of the lodge use was established. The L -3 lodges are almost invari- ably adjacent to residential neighborhoods; and the policy behind the creation of L -3 is that small lodges can be compatible in their neighborhoods. We believe that the Crestahaus can be a good neighbor, and this change in use does not threaten the residential neighborhood. AREA AND BULK REQUIREMENTS It appears that the main lodge encroaches into the 10 foot front yard setback and the modular house encroaches into the sideyard setback. Section 24- 13.10(B) specifies that if the reconstruction and renova- tion investment is more than 50% of the appraised value of the structure, then the area and bulk requirements of the underlying zone must be met. Based on conversations with the applicant's representa- tives it appears that more than 50% of the appraised value is being spent. Therefore, the applicant will either have to meet these setback requirements or obtain a variance from the Board of Adjustment if a hardship can be demonstrated. INCREASE IN FAR The additional 5,735 s.f. requested by the applicant would raise the FAR from the present .20:1 to .30 :1. The following issues are associated with this request: 1. Neighborhood impacts including (a) blocking residents' views and (b) the lack of landscaping along the eastern property line that would help screen the new structure as well as the parking area. 2. Circulation problems related to the inadequate sight distance of the intersection worsened by additional traffic generated from the larger development. Based on a motorcycle /car accident at the intersection in 1979, the City Engineer's Office provided a "No Left Turn" sign to be posted at the Crestahaus gate. It is no longer in place. A "Hidden Drive" sign was posted on the eastbound side of the Highway at that time. The situation has been known to be dangerous for many years, and should be studied by the applicant, so as to propose some way to mitigate the impacts of additional development and traffic. 3. Possible parking shortage for the project. In our view, the main purpose for reviewing all FAR increases in the L -3 zone is to determine whether any special problems would be created in the somewhat fragile relationship between the lodge and residential neighborhood. It appears that the Crestahaus site is large enough to accommodate the level of development proposed herein. However, problems associated with the project's increased size should be mitigated, as noted in the conditions below. 4 RECOMMENDAT IONS 1. The Planning Office recommends that you concur with its point assignment to approve the project. We also recommend allocation of the 10 units available in 1985. We do not support the applicant's request for future year allocations because, in our opinion, this is an acceptable, but marginal quality project, as represented by the score it has received. We feel that next year there may be a far more desireable project which is submit- ted, or that this applicant may be able to improve upon the current proposal by that time. 2. We recommend that the Commission approve the parking plan for 33 spaces, and therein not requiring extra spaces for employees, on the condition that there be a reconfiguration of the parking areas to eliminate or reduce conflicts with neighbors. 3. We recommend approval of the change in use from one residential unit to one lodge unit on the condition that the applicant a. Verify that the illegal status of Cabin C -2 has changed or does apply to only additions to that cabin; and b. Present evidence that Cabin C -2 has historically rented short -term or long -term. This condition must be met prior to the City Council meeting for considering GMP allocation to this project. 4. The Planning Office recommends approval of the increase in FAR, subject to the conditions that: a. A landscaping plan which is acceptable to the Planning Office with screening along the eastern property line shall be submitted. Landscape improvements shall be included in the project timetable. b. The applicant shall present an engineering report with respect to improving the intersection sight distance. c. Variances for the setback encroachments of the main lodge and the modular house must be obtained prior to the issuance of a building permit. d. A corrected plan shall be submitted to the Planning Office reflecting all the technical clarifications and representa- tions upon which the Planning and Zoning Commission has based its scoring of the project. This plan shall be submitted prior to the City Council meeting for considering GMP allocation to this project. SB.78 5 CITY OF ASPEN PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION EVALUie ION L -3 GMP SCORE SHEETS PROJECT: Crestahaus DATE: 11/5/85 1. AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES (Maximum 10 points) . The Commission shall consider each application with respect to the impact of the proposed building or the addition thereto upon public facilities and services and shall rate each development by assigning points according to the following formula: 0 -- Project requires the provision of new services at increased public expense. 1 -- Project can be handled by the existing l ev,el of service in the area or any service improvement by the applicant benefits the project only and not the area in general. 2 -- Project in and of itself improves the quality of service in a given area. The following services shall be rated accordingly: a. WATER - Considering the ability of the water system to serve the development and the applicant's commitment to finance any system extensions or treatment plant upgrading required to serve the development. RATING : 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS : An 8" water line is located along Highw -y 82 adjacent to the property and can serve this development. There is adequate treatment plant capacity available for the increase in demand caused by the project. b. SEWER - Considering the ability of the sewer system to serve the development and the applicant's commitment to finance any system extensions or treatment plant upgrading required to serve the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: _ 1 COMMENTS : A 10" trunk sewer line is located 3 51ong Highway 82 adjacent to the property and can serve this development. The existing treatment plant can accommodate the additional project demand, c. STORM DRAINAGE - Considering the degree to which the applicant proposes to retain surface runoff on the develop- ment site. If the development requires use of the City's drainage system, considering the commitment by the applicant to install the necessary drainage control facilities and to maintain the system over the long -term. RAT ING : 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: The applicant proposes to install three dry wells that w would retain most of the "billtop" surface run-off. Engineering the drainage on the site primarily responds to the increase in impervious surface and additional building coverage. It does not appear to improve the historic run -off patterns. It will be important that the paved bicycle path profile does not change from that of the current highway shoulder so not to change drainage off the road. - d. FIRE PROTECTION - Considering the ability of the Fire Department to provide fire protection according to its established response standards without the necessity of establishing a new station or requiring addition of major equipment to an existing station, the adequacy of available water pressure and capacity for providing fire fighting flows; and the commitment of the applicant to provide fire protection facilities which may be necessary to serve the project, including, but not limited to, fire hydrants and water storage tanks. RAT ING: 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: There are two fire hydrants within 150 feet of the property. Water pressure a.nd capacity are adequate to serve the site. according to the Water _Department evaluation. The main fire station is .75 miles from the project;, and response time is stated to be tinder 3 minutes. e. ROADS - Considering the capacity of major linkages of the road network to provide for the needs of the proposed development without substantially altering the existing traffic patterns, creating safety hazards or overloading the existing street system; and the Applicant's commitment to finance the necessary road system improvements to serve the increased usage attributable to the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: The Crestahaus is directly adjacent to Highway 82. There would be an increase in Highway traffic from this project. The Mountain Valley bus line passes the property; and there is a nearby bus stop. The proposed bike trail along the Highway for which the applicant would contribute $4.000 should improve bicycle and pedestrian access into town. However. an off -grade trail easement would appear to be far more useful than this minimal contribution. The applicant has not proposed any change ii • _ • • • 1' • • 1 • • tip • I- : • • • , . • - '1 . . drive. With the increase in traffic entering and eggressing from Crestahaus, intersection hazards will get worse. 2. QUALITY OF OR IMPROVEMENTS TO DESIGN (Maximum 39 points) . The Commission shall consider each application with respect to the quality of its exterior and site design and any, improvements proposed thereto, and shall rate each development by assigning points according to the following formula: 0 -- Indicates a totally deficient design. 1 -- Indicates a major design flaw. 2 -- Indicates an acceptable (but standard design) . 3 -- Indicates an excellent design. The following shall be rated accordingly: 464 411 a. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN - Considering the compatibility of the proposed building or any addition thereto (in terms of size, height, location and building materials) with the existing neighborhood developments. RATING: 2 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS: 6 COMMENTS: The proposed renovation and new construction program will increase the total developed floor area from 11.950 sq. ft. to approximately 17 .017 sq. ft. on a 56,197 sq. ft. par- cel. The new pitched roofs would have a median height of 22 feet. There would be no change in height or bulk of the modular house on the east side of the property. The "small scale" massing elements, _arcade walkway, wooden lattice -work and replacement of outbuildings should make the project more attrac- tive. This project would remain at a scale mainly compatible with the abutting Riverside Subdivision neighborhood, and for its promineDce _pn the hilltop. However, some neighbors' views will be affected . b. SITE DESIGN - Considering the quality and character of the proposal or the improvements to the existing landscaping and open space areas, the extent of undergrounding of utilities, and the provision of pedestrian amenities (path, benches, etc.) to enhance the design of the development and to provide for the safety and privacy of the users of the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS: 3 COMMENTS: The "J" shape of the proposed building complex tends to keep the massing to the north and west of the property. minimiz- ing visual impact from the Highway. The "auto - court" parking areas, planting of trees and shrubs and use of berms improves upon the present landscape /parking scheme. A path and seating areas will be constructed around the_ back of the development. The unscreened and unlandscaped east parking areas are too close to the eastern property line and neighboring residences.

The Commission shall consider each application with respect to the quality and spaciousness of its proposed services for guests as compared to the size of the proposed lodging project or any addition thereto. The Commission shall rate each development by assigning points according to the following formula: 0 -- Indicates a total lack of guest amenities. 1 -- Indicates services which are judged to be deficient in terms of quality of spaciousness. • 2 -- Indicates services which are judged to be adequate in terms of quality and spaciousness. 3 -- Indicates services which are judged to be exceptional in terms of quality and spaciousness.

AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES - Maximum 10 points) . The Commission shall consider each application with respect to the impact of the proposed building or the addition thereto upon public facilities and services and shall rate each development by assigning points according to the following formula: 0 -- Project requires the provision of new services at increased public expense. 1 -- Project can be handled by the existing level of service in the area or any service improvement by the applicant benefits the project only and not the area in general. 2 -- Project in and of itself improves the quality of service in a given area. The following services shall be rated accordingly: a. WATER - Considering the ability of the water system to serve the development and the applicant's commitment to finance any system extensions or treatment plant upgrading required to serve the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: An 8" water line is located along Highway 82 adjacent to the property and can serve this development. There is adequate treatment plant capacity available for the increase in demand caused by the project. b. SEWER - Considering the ability of the sewer system to serve the development and the applicant's commitment to finance any system extensions or treatment plant upgrading required to serve the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS 1 COMMENTS: A 10" trunk sewer line is located along Highway 82 adjacent to the property and can serve this development. The existing treatment plat_ can accommodate the additional project demand c. STORM DRAINAGE - Considering the degree to which the applicant proposes to retain surface runoff on the develop- ment site. If the development requires use of the City's drainage system, considering the commitment by the applicant to install the necessary drainage control facilities and to maintain the system over the long -term. RAT ING : 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: The applicant proposes to install three dry wells that would retain most of the "hilltop" surface run -off. Engineering the drainage on the site primarily responds to the increase _fin impervious surface and additional building coverage. It does not appear to improve thg historic run -off patterns. It will be important that the paved bicycle path profile does not change from that of the current highway shoulder so not to change 4 ft drainage off the road. c. FIRE PROTECTION - Considering the a bili ty of th e Fire Department to provide fire pro according to its established response standards without the necessity of establishing a new station or requiring addition of major equipment to an existing station, the adequacy of available water pressure and capacity for providing fire fighting flows; and the commitment of the applicant to provide fire protection facilities which may be necessary to serve the project, including, but not limited to, fire hydrants and water storage tanks. RAT ING : 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: There are two fire hydrants within 150 feet of the property. Water pressure and capacity are adequate to serve the site, according to the Water Department evaluation. The main fire station is .75 miles from tie project;, and response time is stated to be under 3 minutes. e. ROADS - Considering the capacity of major linkages of the road network to provide for the needs of the proposed development without substantially altering the existing traffic patterns, creating safety hazards or overloading the existing street system; and the Applicant's commitment to finance the necessary road system improvements to serve the increased usage attributable to the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 1 COMMENTS: The Crestahaus is directly adjacent to Highway 82. There would be an increase in Highway traffic from this project. The Mountain Valley bus line passes the property; and there is a nearby bus stop. The proposed bike trail along the Highway for which the applicAlnt would contribute $4.000 should improve bicycle and pedestrian access into town However, an off -grade trail easement would appear to be far more useful than this minimal contribution. The applicant has not proposed any change i improving the sight distance from the Highway of the entrance drive. With the increase in traffic entering and aggressing from Crestahaus, intersection hazards will get worse. 2. QUALITY OF OR IMPROVEMENTS TO DESIGN (Maximum 39 points) . The Commission shall consider each application with respect to the quality of its exterior and site design and any improvements proposed thereto, and shall rate each development by a ssigning points according to the following formula: 0 -- Indicates a totally deficient design. 1 -- Indicates a major design flaw. 2 -- Indicates an acceptable (but standard design) . 3 -- Indicates an excellent design. The following shall be rated accordingly: 4 et a. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN - Considering the compatibility of the proposed building or any addition thereto (in terms of size, height, location and building materials) with the existing neighborhood developments. RATING: 2 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS 6 COMMENTS : The proposed renovation and new construction program will increase the total developed floor area from 11,950 • • .•• . , 'ma - 7 117 • •, ..r- cel . The new pitched roofs would have a median height of 22 feet. There would be no change in height or bulk of the modular house on the east side of the property. The "small scale" massing elements, arcade walkway, wooden lattice -work and replacement of outbuildings should make the project more attrac- tive. This project would remain at a scale mainly compatible with the abutting Riverside Subdivision neighborhood. and for its prominence on the hilltop However, some neighbors' views will be affected. b. SITE DESIGN - Considering the quality and character of the proposal or the improvements to the existing landscaping and open space areas, the extent of undergrounding of utilities, and the provision of pedestrian amenities (path, benches, etc.) to enhance the design of the development and to provide for the safety and privacy of the users of the development. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS: 3 COMMENTS: The "J" shape of the proposed building complex tends to keep the massing to the north and west of the property. minimiz- ing visual impact from the Highway. The "auto- court" parking areas, planting of trees and shrubs and use of berms improves upon the present landscape /parking scheme. A path and seating areas will be constructed around the_ back of the development. The unscreened •,• • -•._ a , .. .••• - -as are too close to the eastern property line and neighboring residences. This design aspect will cause negative impacts on the neighborhood such as visual detraction. headlights, noise. fumes and snow pile drainage problems, which is a significant flaw in the proposal. c. ENERGY CONSERVATION - Considering the use of insulation, solar energy devices, passive solar orientation and similar techniques to maximize conservation of energy and use of solar energy sources in the lodge or any addition thereto. RATING: 2 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 2 COMMENTS : The passive solar orientation solar heated Jacuzzi and use of insulation and double and triple pane glazing represent - ler. • , - v. ' . , ' 1 .r. -, . - - - However, this program does not exceed current standard practices. d. PARKING AND CIRCULATION - Considering the quality and efficiency of the internal circulation and parking system for the project, or any addition thereto, including the proposed automobile and service vehicle access and loading areas, and the design features to screen parking from public views. RATING: 1 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS: _ 3 COMMENTS : The site plan allows for 33 parking spaces arranged around the inner court yard and along the eastern property line (approximately 5 feet set back) . The number of spaces con- ' responds to the 33 19dge units and does not _provide specifically for employee parking (2 units and 6 employees) . Residential parking requirements are set through PkZ review. pursuant to Section 24 -4.5. The unscreened eastern parkin_g areas are very close to the adjacent residences. Circulation appears to work well. No change is proposed that would improve the sight distance of the intersection with the Highway. The increase in ingress and egress traffic caused by the proposed will make existing conditions more hazardous. e. VISUAL IMPACTS - Considering the scale and location of the proposed buildings or any addition thereto, to maximize public views of surrounding scenic areas. RAT ING : 2 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS: 6 CONTENTS : An attempt has been made to minimize visual impacts by locating buildings in the back (north and wit) of the parcel and keeping - - .v- .w .. . - ' • -:. -: K ' • visual impact from Highway 82 would not be significantly greater that at present. Views from Riverside Subdivision Lots 2 and 3 to the west and south would be somewhat blocked by the new structure even though this wing will be 175 feet away from the houses. If landscape and building lighting is kept very low keyed there should not be a significant night visual impact from the project 3 . AMENITIES PROVIDED FOR GUESTS (Maximum 21 points) . The Commission shall consider each application with respect to the quality and spaciousness of its proposed services for guests as compared to the size of the proposed lodging project or any addition thereto. The Commission shall rate each development by assigning points according to the following formula: 0 -- Indicates a total lack of guest amenities. 1 -- Indicates services which are judged to be deficient in terms of quality of spaciousness. 2 -- Indicates services which are judged to be adequate in terms of quality and spaciousness. 3 -- Indicates services which are judged to be exceptional in terms of quality and spaciousness. The following shall be rated accordingly: a. Availability of or improvements to the existing on -site common meeting areas, such as lobbies and conference areas, in relation to the size of the proposed lodging project or any addition thereto. RATING: 2 (Multiplier: 3) POINTS: 6 COMMENTS : The existing 576 sq. ft. common room will be remodel- ed. and a second smaller common room will be made available to guests of the lodge. b. Availability of or improvements to the existing on -site dining facilities, including any restaurants, bars and banquet facilities, in relation to the size of the proposed lodging project or any addition thereto. RATING: 2 4 (Multiplier : 2) POINTS: 4 COMMENTS : The existing kitchen will be remodeled. c. Availability of or improvements to the existing on -site accessory recreational facilities, such as health clubs, pools and other active areas, in relation to the size of the proposed lodging or any addition thereto. RATING: 3 (bultiplier: 2) POINTS: 6 COMMENTS : The Crestahaus will provide the following new facili- ties: a jacuzzi, sauna, exercise room. ski storage room. and landscape lighting for use of garden path and pool. The improve- ments represent a significant package of recreation- related amenities for a lodge of this size and price- range. 4. CONFORMANCE TO LOCAL PUBLIC POLICY GOALS (Maximum 15 points in Category A, normally 5 points in Category B, maximum 15 points in Category C) The Commission shall consider each application and its degree of conformity with local planning policies, as follows: a. PROVISION OF EMPLOYEE HOUSING The Commission shall award points as follows: 0 to 40% of the additional lodge employees generated by the project who are housed on or off -site 1 point for each 4% housed. 41 to 100% of the additional lodge employee generated by the project who are housed on or off -site 1 point for each 12% housed. RATING: 15 ( Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 15 COMMENTS: The Housing Authority has determined that based on computation of the lowest service level (.22 employees per new unit) the 14 new units would generate 3.08 employees. The applicant has committed to providing for 100% of the employees generated and has provided an employee housing program meeting the Housing Authority's approval. b . CONVERSION OF EXISTING UNITS The Commission shall assign points to those applicants who guarantee to provide a porticn of their low -, moderate- or middle- income units by purchasing fully constructed units which are not restricted to Aspen's housing guidelines and placing a deed- restriction upon them in compliance with Section 24- 11.10. Points shall be assigned according to the following schedule: POINTS 1%-33% of all low -, moderate- and 1 middle - income units proposed by applicant are to be purchased and deed- restricted. 34 % -66% of all low -, moderate- and 3 middle- income units proposed 1 by applicant are to be purchased and deed- restricted. 67%-100% of all low -, moderate- and 5 middle- income units proposed by applicant are to be purchased and deed - restricted. RATING: 5 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 5 conmENTS : 100% of the deed - restricted employee housing will be provided in the existing Crestahaus Lodge. c. REHABILITATION AND RECONSTRUCTION OF EXISTING UNITS (maximum 15 points) . The Commission shall award points as follows: 0 to 50% of the total existing unit inventory or non- unit space in the lodge which the applicant agrees to rehabilitate or reconstruct - 1 point for each 10% rehabilitated or reconstructed. 50 to 100% of the total existing unit inventory or non- unit space in the lodge which the applicant agrees to rehabilitate or reconstruct - 1 point for each 5% rehabilitated or reconstructed. RATING: 3 (Multiplier: 1) POINTS: 3 CO TENTS : Six (6) units will totally reconstructed__ rep - senting 31% of the exi tinq lodge facility. The applicant ias stated that approximately $50,000 will be spent on rehabilitation of the remaining existing units and the non -unit space (two mmon rooms, exercise room and ski storage) of the existing lodge. The number of existing . units as determined by the zoning Inspector is 19. The applicant _should provide more information at your meeting to ascertain what portion of the existing facility will be rehabilitated beyond the 31% reconstruction. whioh_ is the basis of our recommended scoring in this category. In order to qualify for these points, the applicant must submit a timetable for the improvements which pr ovides that the rebuilt portions are suitable for occupancy prior to or at the same time as the new units are _Qn- line. This timetable _should be available prior to Q_ at_our meeting. For the purposes of this section, rehabilitation shall include the upgrading of the structure and appearance of a lodge unit or of non -unit space by its in -place restoration to a substantially higher quality status relative to the segment (s) of the tourist population to which the lodge is marketed, which may alter its size. For the purpose of this section, reconstruction shall include the partial or complete demolition and rebuilding of a lodge unit or non -unit space which may be accomplished in a similar or diffe- rent size to the original configuration, provided that the rebuilt portion of the lodge is located on the same site. For the purpose of this section, non -unit space shall include those areas of the lodge not included within individual lodge units but intended to serve the guests of the facility, including but not limited to the lobby, halls, recreational areas and dining facilities. 5. BONUS POINTS (maximum 6 points) The Commission members may, when any one determines that a project has not only incorporated and met the substantive criteria of Section 24- 11.6(b) (1) , (2) , (3) and (4) , but has also exceeded the provisions of these subsections and achieved an outstanding overall design meriting recognition, award additional bonus points not exceeding ten (10) percent of the total points awarded under Section 24-11.6(b)(1) ,(2) , (3) and (4) , prior to the application of the corresponding multiplier.

Galena Street, Aspen, Colorado, to consider an application requesting a lodge growth management allotment for the L -3 zone district for the Crestahaus Lodge. The applicant proposes to add 14 new units and to reconstruct the existing lodge. For further information, please contact the Aspen /Pitkin Planning Office, 130 S.

COLORADO 81611 TELEPHONE 13031 025 -1216 N vember 5, 1985 Planning & Zoning Commission City of Aspen 130 South Galena Street Aspen, Colorado 81611 Re: Crestahaus Lodge Expansion To the Commission: I represent Terry and Molly Swanton who are the owners of Lot 1, Riverside Subdivision, which adjoins the Crestahaus property on the East on Highway 82. While my clients are not opposed to renovation of the Lodge per se, they do believe that the project as proposed has several problem areas which need to be mitigated. They are as follows: 1. Height. The proposed buildings are too high and will directly impact the views of adjacent residences as well as the Swantons. The project should have a lower profile. The lights from the project will shine directly into my clients' sleeping quarters. 2. Parking. The proposed plan calls for 17 parking spaces facing east along my clients' boundary line. This will obviously cause lights to shine directly into their house. It appears the developer wishes to keep the parking away from the main portion of the Lodge, to the detriment of the neighbors to the east. In addition, the noise, fumes and lights will negatively affect our vegetable garden and open space. The proposed plan appears to be devoid of any attempt to mitigate the foregoing problem. 3. Increase in F.A.R. As the Planning Office memo states, the main proposal for reviewing F.A.R. increases is to determine whether "special problems would be created in the somewhat fragile area between the Lodge and residential neighborhood ". My clients believe the height and parking as referred to above create just such a "special problem" and the increase should be denied. 4. Entrance. The entrance is dangerous and "blind" to easterly traffic Some steps should be taken to mitigate this danger and further to prevent guests from using my clients' Planning and Zoning Commission November 5, 1985 Page 2 driveway as a turn around. 5. Future Year Allocations. In my clients' view, the borrowing of future year allocations is an extremely poor practice for any project, and should be denied. In the planning office's view, this project was entitled to only a score of 64 (63 is the minimum needed) and certainly should not be entitled to future year allocations. Thank you for your consideration of these matters. Very truly ours, JTK /og John Thomas Kelly Attorney for Terry and Molly Swanton AFFIDAVIT OF HORST J. BALKE STATE OF COLORADO ) ss.

Galena Street Aspen, Colorado 81611 Hello - and thank you for accepting this correspondence with reference to the November 5th hearing regarding the Crestahaus Lodge and their application for re- zoning and expansion. As co- owners of the 1360 Riverside Drive home directly adjacent to the Crestahaus property, Lizabeth Kerr and I wish to express concern with several aspects of the proposed expansion. The limited information that we have received indicates that the size, design, and placement of the new units is somewhat out of proportion to the shape and size of the property itself. In particular, we would not welcome the increased size and placement of the parking area, which is directly adjacent to our property line. While respecting the positive outcome of renovation to this prime Aspen space, it seems appropriate that the Crestahaus Lodge owners and the Planning Commission give due consideration to the impact of such severe re- structuring, affecting all neighboring properties. We shall appreciate your attention and response to our concern. C / orrd d iaally, ' . - ` Od t- 4 0' n + 4 d - tr -- Dede Dusan RHONE MEMO GIBSON G.

It would help if applicant would point out the areas that they consider open space instead of siting a 53% figure. I believe this open space definition is more applicable to the downtown area and this lot may require some interpretation of the intent of the open space code. In calculating the existing square footage of the buildings, for purposes of F.A.R. credit, did the applicant deduct existing garages and mechanical rooms? Was the pool building counted in existing F.A.R.? It appears by eyeballing that the house located on the easterly portion of the lot may encroach into the 5 foot sideyard setback by 1/2' to 1' at the SE corner. The main lodge appears to encroach currently into the 10 foot frontyard. Any new entry way arches (over 6 ft) would be required to stay out of the frontyard setback. It appears that the steps located adjacent to Highway 82 at the auto court (page 26 of the submission) would be located on City property. On page 27 of the submission, the area shown as exercise is currently being used as a garage and boiler area. Would like to remind the applicant that the maximum building height is 25'. BD /ar ASPEN WATER DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: STEVE BURSTEIN, PLANNING OFFICE FROM: JIM MARKALUNAS SUBJECT: CRE$3'F — DATE: ( CTQ�E R 29, 198 Th" I J1 ,J K We have reviewed the application and wish to advise you that there is water available from an 8" water main. However, there seems to be a discrepancy between the applicants information and what our records show. Our records indicate that there is a 1}" service from an 8" main in Riverside Drive near the intersection of Highway 82, to the property. We wish to advise the applicant that there is water in sufficient quantities for his needs. However, we would recommend that the applicant check in with us prior to construction or renovation in order that we can determine how best to service the property.

Galena St. Aspen, Colorado 81611 Re: Crestahaus Lodge expansion -- GMP application, special review, and conformity with zoning To the Commission: I own Lot 2, Riverside Subdivision, which adjoins the Crestahaus Lodge property. The applicant proposes to replace three cabins and a log building with a two - story, 20 -room building. This construction will have more bulk than the existing 12 -room lodge which will be remodeled and retained, along with a residence which is to be converted into a lodge. My residence on Lot 2 has an external FAR of .127 :1. By special review, the applicant is requesting the establishment of an FAR of .30 :1 for its property, a ratio more than twice my FAR. The applicant proposes to compact a parking area of 16,094 square feet used by 19 cars to a 15,525 square foot area for 33 cars, 15 of which are lined up facing into Lots 1,2, and 3 of Riverside Subdivision. The height (more than 22 feet) and bulk of the new building and the proposed line of parked cars (where there are now none), especially when viewed from my residence which is 10 to 15 feet below the grade of the lodge property, hardly make the project as presently proposed compatible with the existing use of adjoining residential property. The site design seems to address itself to visual impacts when viewed from a high point on Highway 82, and ignores viewplanes of and visual impacts on the adjoining Riverside residential property. The drainage sketch in the applicant's proposal does not show the 10- to 15 -foot drop -off along the boundary between the lodge property and my lot. I am concerned that snow removed along the line of parking spaces facing me will find its way into my back yard as snow or runoff. Presently there is no need to remove snow from the strip that is Planning and Zoning Commission 28 October 1985 Page 2 proposed to become parking spaces. I am also concerned that underground drainage may be affected by the reconfiguration of the gravel parking surface and increased coverage by the proposed lodge building. I have had basement flooding problems in the past and don't want surface or subsurface runoff from the new lodge building and parking arrangement to make matters worse. In 1970 a log building was moved onto the Crestahaus property. In 1971 a request for a variance to allow the building to remain on the property was denied because the Crestahaus was then a nonconforming lodge in a residential zone. In addition, one of the members "Felt the building is a log shack with a tin roof and does not conform to building codes." In 1973 another variance was sought for adding another building, a modular home to be used as a residence, and it was noted in the proceedings that the illegal log building of the 1971 hearing was still on the property. Riverside Subdivision neighbors vigorously opposed the variance because, among other things, the previous variance denial had never been enforced. The variance for the residence was granted. The lodge was nonconforming because it was in a residential zone, but the proposed residence was not nonconforming, so it was allowed with the agreement of the owner of the Crestahaus property that it would not be used in connection with the lodge, but only as a residence so long as the lodge remained a nonconforming use. When the Crestahaus parcel was rezoned L -3 in 1982 (pursuant to public notice but no notice to adjacent landowners) the lodge became conforming and the residence nonconforming. (It is unfortunate that while nonconforming lodges' owners were individually contacted to determine whether they wished their lodge to be considered as part of the so- called "class action" L -3 rezoning, the nonconforming lodges' neighbors were not so consulted.) Now the applicant proposes to change the use of the existing single - family residence (labelled "Existing 3 rooms" on the site plan) to lodge. While the applicant may believe the variance rulings are past history, to me this history means that the applicant will be allowed to exempt from GMP as "existing lodge units" units in a building which should have been removed in 1971 but wasn't because there was no City enforcement, and (if the Commission finds that the change of use of three rooms will result in negligible growth impacts on the community) will be allowed to exempt from GMP three rooms in an existing residence building which building was only allowed because it was to be a residence and was not to be used in connection with lodge operations. Planning and Zoning Commission 28 October 1985 Page 3 The planning office is required to reject any appliction for GMP development allotment which fails ilsatoe comply with zoning requirements and any other app land use or building regulations of the City. The side yard setback in L -3 is five feet. It is not obvious that the existing residence which it to be retained as part of the project for which a GMP allocation is sought meets that setback, nor is it obvious that the existing twelve -room building, which is also to be retained, meets the ten -foot front yard setback when measured from the Highway 8 dedicated right -of -way line. The stated purpose of the L -3 zone is to "preserve existing lodges in their existing locations and to permit the limited expansion of these lodges wherever appropriate. The special review criteria for establishing L -3 zone FAR is the "compatibility of the development with surrounding land uses and zoning." The Crestahaus proposal as presently stated is hardly a limited expansion la z has serious incompatibilities with the surround -1 zon of I urge you to visit the site as part of y n this project. '.cerely, 150100 ali anderud HAND DELIVERED 4 M E M O R A N D U M TO: Steve Burstein, Planning Office FROM: Ann Bowman, Housing Office RE: Crestahous Lodge GMP Conceptual Submission /Special Rev i e DATE: .ctober 28, 1985 TSSUE: Is the employee housing generation of one employee accurate and does the proposed housing meet the Housing Authority Guidelines? BACKGROUND: The Crestahous Lodge is expanding their lodge operation by upgrading 15 existing units, tearing down 6 units and completely rebuilding them. In addition, they are creating 14 new lodge units. They are representing that there are three employees currently and that the addition of 14 units will only generate one employee. They are proposing an employee housing unit of 360 sq.ft. as a sleeping area (dorm) with joint access to a kitchen, bath and living quarters of 1,030 sq.ft. The Housing Office using the Aspen City Code Section 24- 1.6(b)(4) "The Commission shall employ the advice of the City Council's housing designee in the determination of the number of employees the project is expected to generate. The housing designee shall make available standards for employee generation representing the various levels of service which reflect the types of lodge operations in existence or proposed for the City of Aspen." computes 14 units x's .22 (lowest level of service) = 3.08 employees generated. The shortfall then becomes 90 sq. ft. of space for the third employee if the equation for the dormitory is used (150 sq.ft. per person sleeping area). The applicant has proposed 360 sq. ft. which accommodates 2 employees plus 60 sq. ft. ACTION NEEDED: The Housing Office is recommending that the employee generation be increased from one employee to three and that an addition of 90 sq. ft. of sleeping area be incorporated in the applicants design. If this is accomplished the Housing Office would recommend approval with the following deed restric- tion would be incorporated at time of issuance of Occupancy permit: 1 A puce' of land being P c of the Riverside Addition .'

Eisenstein DGE /bw Enclosure MEMORANDUM To: Steve Burstein, Planning Department From: Elys- '• s.ineering Department Date: • ober 22, 1985 Re: estahaus • GMP Conceptual Submission /Special Review After reviewing the above application and making a site inspection, the Engineering Department has the following comments: Utilities The existing water and sewer services available to this site are adequate for this proposal. If the applicant installs or upgrades electrical lines, they should be undergrounded. The installation of drywells will improve the historic site drainage. Trash Aspen's trash company, BFI, has indicated that a lodge of this size would generate enough trash to require two, two -yard dumpst- ers. The area proposed for dumpster space would adequately accomodate these. Traffic There would be no significant impact on the traffic flow on Highway 82. Trails The applicant is proposing to contribute $4000 toward a $6000 bike path along Highway 82 frontage of their property. The State Highway Department should be contacted regarding this proposal, as it might change the drainage pattern. If the Highway Department is amenable to this construction, they should be asked to contribute the remaining $2000. Pa king The applicant is proposing to rehabilitate 21 lodge units and is seeking allotment for 14 lodge units for a total of 34 bedrooms. The parking proposal allows spaces for 34 vehicles which meets Code requirements.

Fire flows are typically computed using ISO "Procedures for Needed Fire Flow," 1980 Edition. JW /ar ASPEN‘PITKIN ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Steve Burstein, Planning Office FROM: Thomas S. Dunlop, Directorl Environmental Health Department DATE: October 21, 1985 RE: Crestahaus Lodge GMP Conceptual Submission /Special Review The above - referenced submittal has been reviewed by this office for the following environmental concerns. WATER SUPPLY Service to this project by the City of Aspen Municipal Water distribution system is in conformance with policies of this office. SEWAGE DISPOSAL Service to this project by the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District collection lines is in conformance with policies of this office. AIR POLLUTION This concern will be discussed in three sections. 1. Woodburning Devices (fireplaces, woodburning stoves) . Since this issue is not discussed in the proposal, it will be simply stated here that compliance with the City of Aspen Ordinance 47 series 1985 must be met by the applicant. Further, should amendments be made to the referenced ordinance in the future, compliance with that ordinance as then written or the State of Colorado law on woodburning devices must be complied with. Certified woodburning devices or natural gas fireplaces are two options available to the applicant. 2. Restaurant Grill Emissions Should the remodelled food service facility include an open char - broiler compliance with City of Aspen Ordinance 12 series 1983 or it's amendments or interpretations must be complied with. 130 South Galena Street Aspen, Colorado 81611 303/925 -2020 Page Two October 22, 1985 Crestahaus Lodge GMP Conceptual Submission /Special Review 3. Construction /Demolition Should dust become a visible problem or a concern of neighbors remedial actions will be required. The dust would obviously be generated from grading soils, demolition or trucks carrying mud or dirt onto Highway 82. Should the latter become a problem, the applicant will be required to remove daily, by means of a mechanical street sweeper, any mud or soil from the highway. That soil will in turn be redeposited on the project site. Recommended remedies for controlling windblown dust would be watering the immediate site, use of dust suppressants on disturbed areas or fencing of the disturbed soils. Prompt revegetation would be a logical action as soon as the project is completed. NOISE ABATEMENT No permanent long term noise impacts on the neighborhood are expected. Short term construction noise impacts may be realized, however. Should this office receive complaints concerning excessive noise from this project the City of Aspen Noise Abatement Ordinance 2 series 1981 will be the governing enforcement document. FOOD SERVICE It is recommended that the "substantially improved" food service facilities be constructed in compliance with the State of Colorado Food Service Rules and Regulations. It is very likely that in the near future this facility will be required to obtain a Colorado Food Service License due to changes in enforcement policies of the State. Compliance with governing regulations at the time of remodel will assure ease of licensing when the time comes. SWIMMING POOL /SPA Compliance with the State of Colorado Swimming Pool Regulations and Standards will be required. Improvements to the existing pool and installation of an eight foot jacuzzi will require plans be submitted to this office for review and approval prior to constr- uction. Copies of all referenced ordinances and rules and regulations may be obtained from this office by the applicant.
