(hereinafter referred to as "City "), and PAUL R. HAMWI dba
EQUITIES DIVERSIFIED OF COLORADO (hereinafter referred to as

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Owner has submitted to the City for approval,

imposed by the City in approving the Plat; and
WHEREAS, under the authority of §7 -1006 of the Municipal

middle- income guidelines and agreements made with Owner. In
addition, the City has agreed to waive the affordable housing
impact fee during Owner's condominiumization of the project.

percent (25 %) of the project's population as employee housing
which was not required under Owner's application. (See Letter of
Agreement, attached as Exhibit "D ")

by the tap fee schedules in effect at the time water and

time a sidewalk will be constructed meeting Code

obligations to participate in an improvements district for
this purpose.)

NON - COMPLIANCE AND REOUEST FOR AMENDMENTS
OR EXTENSIONS BY OWNER
A. In the event City determines that Owner is not
acting in substantial compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, City may issue and serve upon Owner a written
order specifying the alleged non - compliance and requiring
Owner to cease and desist from such non - compliance and
rectify the same within such reasonable time as City may
determine and specify in such order. Within twenty (20) days
of the receipt of such order, the Owner may file with City a
notice advising City that it is in compliance or a written
petition requesting a hearing to determine any one or both of
the following matters:
(a) whether the alleged non - compliance exists
or did exist; or,
(b) whether a variance, extension of time or
amendment to this Agreement shall be granted with respect to
any such non - compliance which is determined to exist.
Upon the receipt of such petition, City shall
promptly schedule a hearing to consider the matters set forth
in the cease and desist order and in the petition. The
hearing shall be convened and conducted pursuant to the
procedures normally established by City for other hearings.
If City determines by a preponderance of the evidence that a
non - compliance exists which has not been remedied, it may

appropriate.

petition the City for an amendment to this Agreement and the
exhibits attached hereto or to extend any of the time periods
or modify the specific time required for performance.
City shall not unreasonably refuse to extend the
time periods for performance indicated in the Development and
Construction Schedule or refuse to allow reasonable adjust-
ments to the Schedule or the specifications if the Owner
demonstrates by a preponderance of the evidence that the
reasons for such extension or said adjustments result from
the unforeseeable circumstances, litigation, acts of God, or
other events beyond the control of the Owner despite good
faith efforts on its part to accomplish the same.
As is set forth below, the foregoing procedures
relative to non - compliance, amendments or extensions shall
not apply in respect of the rights of the City in the event
of a failure to maintain common facilities, which rights are
more particularly described in §VII, paragraph A, below.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen City Council
THRU: Robert Anderson, Jr., City Manager k,Z
FROM: Cindy Houben, Planning Office Fr(\
RE: Hamwi Subdivision /Final Plat and Condominiumization
DATE: R9tOket .=_
APPLICANT: Paul Hamwi
REQUEST: Final Plat and Condominiumization approval /Subdivision
(replacement of existing units) and a request for Exemption from
Growth Management for an employee unit. -
LOCATION: Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision, address 170 N. Park
Avenue, located at the intersection of Park Avenue and Park
Circle.
ZONING: RMF /PUD
HISTORY: The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the
Preliminary Plan on September 6, 1988 with conditions.
The site received a growth management approval in 1985 for 11
units (7 free market and 4 employee units). The applicants have
requested an extension of this approval while they were in this
review process.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to demolish
3 existing units on the 13,000+ square foot lot and reconstruct 3
new free market townhouse structures and one employee unit. The
3 free market units are proposed to be approximately 2,930 square
feet each. The optional employee unit is proposed to be
approximately 1,300 square feet.
SITE DESCRIPTION: The site is a relatively flat site which is
bordered on two sides by public roadways (Park Circle and Park
Avenue). The parcel is 13,393 square feet. The RMF zone
district allows a 1:1 FAR. The proposed square footage and unit
size is as follows:
Three free market units, each containing 3 bedrooms and
approximately 2,930 sq.ft.
One employee unit containing 3 bedrooms and approximately
1,300 sq.ft.
Total of 12 bedrooms and 10,110 sq. ft.
The surrounding land uses are mixed. Directly to the north and
east of the site are multi - family structures. To the south and
west of the site are multi - family, duplex and single family
structures. The Smuggler Mountain area consists of some old and
new structures which have traditionally been owned and rented by
individuals who live and work in the community.
REFERRAL COMMENTS:
Engineering: In a memorandum dated October 4, 1988, Chuck Roth
made the following comments:
1. Gravel sidewalks are not in accordance with City
specifications which require concrete sidewalks. Council
should be consulted about whether or not they want a
concrete sidewalk at the project site.
2. The "improvement district" language in the subdivision
agreement, item F, does not appear to be in agreement with
City standards, specifically the last four lines.
3. The letter of September 22, 1988, from Schmueser Gordon
Meyer refers to the drainage on the property saying that the
design "will increase the historic rate of recharge." This
is not permissible. Current standards are that the historic
rate be maintained with no increase or decrease either to
run -off from the site or recharging of the aquifer.
4. The applicant will be required to submit a plat in
accordance with the Code requirements for final plat. The
adjacent street must be shown as well as edges of pavements
proposed sidewalk locations, and proposed drainage swales.
If platting is required for other purposes (condo -
miniumization) prior to construction, the certificate of
occupancy should be conditional on recording an amended
plat reflecting as -built conditions.
5. It is required by code that the electric service be
provided underground. The Engineering Department requests
that the applicant be required to bury its telephone and
television service connections also.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. This application was made pursuant to the old code. The
proposal to replace three existing units is exempt from the
Growth Management system. In addition, the applicant is
requesting exemption from Growth Management in order to
2
build a deed restricted employee unit. The Planning
Commission also granted the applicants exemption from the
mandatory PUD provisions of the Code. The Council granted
the applicant an exemption from the demolition moratorium
since the application had already been reviewed by the
Planning Commission and was in the review process.
2. The proposed setbacks for the design are as follows:
PROPOSED: REQUIRED:
Front yard - 12' 10'
Rear yard - 10' 10'
Side yard - 25' NORTH 5'
Side yard - 10' SOUTH 5'
3. The application states that a gravel sidewalk will be
provided by the applicant until such time the City
Engineering Department determines the exact location of the
road alignment and R.O.W. along the property lines. At such
time this is determined the applicants will construct a
sidewalk meeting code requirements. The Engineering
Department referral notes that gravel is not acceptable.
This site is in a dense neighborhood, on a bus route where
adequate pedestrian facilities are needed. In discussions
with Chuck Roth he made the suggestion that the applicants
place the sidewalk directly adjacent to their property line
in order to avoid any future problems.
The maximum height in the RMF zone district is 25 feet (with
allowance for 5 additional feet to the peak of the roof) .
The proposed elevations illustrate a maximum height of 30
feet to the top of the roof line from existing grade. This
meets the code requirements. The individuals who will be
most affected by the project are those living in the multi-
family structures to the north and northeast. These
individuals will lose a great deal of their existing views
towards the south and west due to the height and location of
the proposal. The only way to mitigate the impact is to
require that the applicants build a single story structure.
This design however would require the units be totally
reconfigured on the parcel and that the applicants resubmit
a plan. As compared to the prior approval, the new proposal
reduces the overall buildout on the site and leaves a
greater buffer at the intersection of Park Avenue and Park
Circle. None of the adjacent land owners came to voice
concerns at the public hearing before the Planning and
Zoning Commission.
The access to the site is proposed off of Park Circle. Each
free market unit will contain a 2 car garage and one
3
additional space per unit is supplied in the northwest
corner of the lot. This meets the requirements of the code
with regard to parking for the free market units. The
employee unit has 3 bedrooms and requires 3 parking spaces
as well. The application only supplies 2 spaces for this
unit. Since the Planning Commission did not waive the
requirement for the 3rd space, the plat must be amended to
show one additional space.
The proposal provides limited landscaping around the
buildings. The yard area is proposed to be seeded with
bluegrass.
4. The applicant is requesting exemption from the Growth
Management competition pursuant to section 24 -11.2. The
proposed employee unit is a three bedroom 1,300 square feet
unit. The Planning Office and Housing Authority recognize
the need in the community for additional employee housing
and strongly encourage the Council to approve this exemption
request for a deed restricted unit on site.
Additionally, the Housing Authority has worked closely with
the applicant with regard to the employee unit space. The
Housing Authority has actually fronted the financing for the
unit and will recoup its cost when the unit is sold.
5. The request for the four units is consistent with the area
and bulk requirements for the RMF zone district.
6. The 1973 Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan designates this area
as a multi - family area which is consistent with the proposed
use.
7. The Planning Commission approved the preliminary Plat with
the following conditions of approval:
a. Prior to review by the City Council the applicants
shall submit a final plat and associated final plat
documents pursuant to the Code requirements. These
documents should include drawings and language which
clarifies the optional employee unit situation, if the
developer so chooses this option.
RESPONSE: The applicant and the Housing Authority have
developed a way to allow the optional employee unit to
be built as part of the proposal.
b. The applicants shall eliminate the patios from within
the side yard setback by either moving the building to
the north or making the patio areas smaller.
RESPONSE: The patios have been moved out of the
4
setback.
c. The applicants shall submit a letter to the Planning
Office from the Water Department noting whether the
water line connection between Neale Street and King
Street is necessary.
RESPONSE: This letter has been submitted. The
referenced water connection was established as part of
the Centennial development.
d. The applicants shall supply a general utility easement
pursuant to the Engineering Department memo dated June
27, 1988.
RESPONSE: This easement has been created and is shown
on the final plat.
e. The applicants shall be subject to all environmental
health air pollution /fireplace regulations in place at
the time a building permit is requested and to all
conditions as listed by Lee Cassin in her memorandum
dated May 11, 1988.
RESPONSE: The application states that all these
requirements will be met.
f. The employee unit shall be restricted to the middle
income guidelines prior to recordation of the final
plat.
RESPONSE: The applicant agrees to deed restrict the
employee unit to the middle income guidelines.
g. The applicant shall be required to vacate the prior
approval pursuant to section 7 -1007 (c), prior to the
recordation of the final plat for this approval.
RESPONSE: The applicant acknowledges that the prior
GMP approval for this site must be vacated prior to the
recordation of this final plat.
8. The applicants are requesting approval to condominiumize the
4 units. The Engineering Department requires that an as
built plat be submitted pursuant to the code requirements.
Section 7 -1008 of the Aspen Municipal Code has the following
criteria for condominiumization:
a. The existing tenants must be given notice of sale and
first right of refusal.
RESPONSE: The applicants have been unable to reach
5
this tenant to date but state that this will be
accomplished. This should be accomplished prior to
recordation of the condominium plat.
b. All units must be restricted to 6 month minimum lease
restrictions with no more than two shorter tenancies
per year.
RESPONSE: The applicant agrees to the 6 month minimum
lease restriction.
c. An Employee Housing Impact Fee is assessed to each free
market unit which is condominiumized unless the project
has provided employee housing pursuant to Section 8 -106
(E) (5), in which case the project shall be exempt from
the Affordable Housing Impact Fee.
RESPONSE: This application was not required to go
through growth management, however since employee
housing (25 % of the development) is being provided,
the applicants have requested a waiver of the
Affordable Housing Impact Fee.
The residential growth management quota system requires
that 35 % of the project's population be supplied with
employee housing. The application states that 25% of
the population of the project is employee housing.
Based on the Affordable Housing Fee methodology, the
applicant should pay 10% of the Affordable Housing
Impact Fee of the 3 (3 bedroom) units. This amounts to
$2,415. Both the Housing Authority and the Planning
Office feel that, in this case only, the fee should be
waived. The rationale is that the Housing Authority
participation in this development is a pilot project
which should be analyzed after the unit is in place.
The $2,415 is a negligible amount which need not be
imposed on this applicant who intends to supply a
critically needed unit for the community.
In summary, the applicants have adequately responded to the
conditions imposed by the Planning Commission at preliminary plat
review.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"Move to approve the Hamwi Subdivision Final Plat, exemption
from the growth management process for the employee unit and
condominiumization of the 4 units with the following conditions
of approval:
1. Prior to recordation of the final plat the applicants
shall vacate the prior approval for the site.
6
2. Prior to final approval of the condominiumization the
applicant shall submit the required condominium plat
documents to the Engineering Department.
3. The sidewalk surrounding the property shall be located
adjacent to the property boundary and shall be
constructed prior to occupancy pursuant to Engineering
Department requirements.
4. The final plat shall contain 12 parking spaces
(one /bedroom).
5. The applicant shall revise the plat prior to its
recordation to include the following: adjacent
streets, edges of pavement, proposed sidewalk locations
and drainage swales.
6. The final drainage plan shall conform to the
requirements of the Code. Prior to issuance of any
permits, the Engineering Department shall approve the
drainage plan.
7. All utility lines to the development shall be buried.
8. Prior to signature of the final plat and subdivision
improvements agreement, the subdivision improvements
agreement shall be modified as follows:
a. Page 1, General Development Plan, shall include
the book and page numbers for the approved plat.
b. Page 3, Water and Sewage Systems - The last
paragraph is not standard language and shall be
deleted.
c. Page 3, Parking Spaces - The applicants shall
provide 12 parking spaces.
d. Page 3, Landscaping - The sidewalk shall be
constructed pursuant to the Engineering Department
standards, adjacent to the property boundary. The
landscaping plan shall be recorded and the book
and page number shall be identified in this
section of the subdivision improvements agreement.
e. Page 3, Woodburning Devices - The last sentence
shall be deleted and the following shall be
inserted. "The development shall be subject to
all woodburning regulations in affect at the time
the building permit is issued for the
development."
7
f. Page 5, Park Dedication Fee - This shall be
reworded to state that the Park Dedication Fee
shall be paid at the time of issuance of a
building permit pursuant to Section 5 -601 of the

MEMORANDUM
TO: Hamwi Subdivision File
FROM: Cindy Houben, Planner
RE: Planning Commission Review of July 19, 1988
DATE: \ July 20, 1988
On July 19, 1988 the Planning Commission reviewed the Hamwi
Subdivision application and set the Public hearing for August 9,
1988.
The Planning Commission reviewed the application and made
preliminary comments that they approve of the subdivision request
with an option to place an employee unit on site. The Planning
commission reviewed the conditions recommended by the Planning
office as listed below:
1. The applicants submit a final landscape plan to the Planning
Office no later than August 2nd in order for the Planning
Office to review the plan prior to the August 9th Public
Hearing before the Planning Commission.
2. The applicants shall submit a final plat and associated
final plat documents pursuant to the Code requirements.
These documents should include drawings and language which
clarifies the optional employee unit situation.
3. The applicants shall eliminate the patios from within the
side yard setback by either moving the building to the north
or making the patio areas smaller.
4. The applicants shall submit a letter to the Planning Office
from the Water Department noting whether the water line
connection between Neale Street and King Street is
necessary.
5. The applicants shall supply a general utility easement
pursuant to the Engineering Department memo dated June 27,
1988.
6. The applicants shall be subject to all environmental health
air pollution/ fireplace regulations in place at the time a
building permit is requested and to all conditions as
listed by Lee Cassin in her memorandum dated May 11, 1988.
7. The employee unit shall be restricted to the middle income
guidelines prior to recordation of the final plat.
8. The applicant shall be required to vacate the prior approval
pursuant to section 7 -1007 (c).
The Planning Commission requested that condition #6 be resolved
by the applicant and the Engineering Department by the August 9th
meeting. The applicant wishes to provide a utility easement of 5
feet in width rather than the requested easement of 7 1/2 feet in
width. The Planning Commission wants this to be determined by
the time of the meeting on August 9, 1988.
In addition, the applicant should resolve condition 4 by the 9th
meeting.
Condition #8 shall be reworded to read as follows:
The applicant shall be required to vacate the prior approval
pursuant to Section 7 -1007 (c) prior to the recordation of the
Plat for this project.
Other discussions at that meeting revolved around the ability for
the applicant to place more employee units on site. The Planning
Commission directed the Planning Office to speak with the Housing
Authority about the possibility of the Housing Authority helping
build on site employee units in some of these projects and or
helping defray the cost of the fees involved in developing a
unit (water tap fees, impact fees etc.).

FROM: Cindy Houben, Planning Office
RE: Hamwi Subdivision 1, -{
DATE: 7.,July 19, 198$ �� �� o f i :c Lci ,.
APPLICANT: Paul Hamwi
REQUEST: Subdivision and PUD (replacement of existing units) and
a request for exemption from Growth management for an employee
unit.
LOCATION: Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision, address 170 N. Park
Avenue, located at the intersection of Park Avenue and Park
Circle.
ZONING: RMF PUD
HISTORY: This parcel received a Growth management approval in
1985 for 11 units (4 new free market, 3 replacement free market
and 4 employee units). This approval expires on September 1,
1988. The applicant has applied for an extension of this approval
while he is in this review process. A copy of the approved site
design is attached for comparison purposes.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL:
This application was not given adequate public notice for this
meeting. Therefore the Planning Office is requesting that the
Planning Commission review the application at this meeting and
open the Public Hearing at a special meeting on August 9th in
order for adjacent landowners and other concerned .citizens to
respond. No formal action should be taken by the Planning
Commission at tonight's meeting.
The applicant proposes to demolish 3 existing units on the
13,000+ square foot lot and reconstruct 3 new townhouse
structures and an optional employee unit. The 3 free market units
are proposed to be approximately 2,950 square feet each. The
optional employee unit is proposed to be approximately 1,600
square feet.
The applicants desire is to construct one employee unit on site,
however he is unsure as to whether or not he can afford to build
the employee unit at this time. Therefore, he is requesting an
exemption from growth management for the employee unit in order
to allow him to construct the unit if it turns out to be
financially feasible. Attached are copies of the design of the - -
development with and without the employee unit_
-SITE DESCRIPTION: The site is a relatively flat site which is
bordered on two sides by public roadways (Park Circle and Par -k
Aveue). The parcel is 13,393 square feet. The RMF zone district
allows a 1:1 FAR. The proposed square footage and unit size is
as follows:
three (3) bedroom units ranging between 2,920 and 2,980
sq.ft.
one (1) bedroom employee unit of 1,660 sq.ft.
Total of 15 bedrooms and 10,510 sq. ft.
The surrounding land uses are mixed. Directly to the north and
east of the site are multi - family structures. To the south and
west of the site are multi - family, duplex and single family
structures. The Smuggler Mountain area consists of some old and
new structures which have traditionally been owned and rented by
individuals who live and work in the community.
REFERRAL COMMENTS:
1. ENGINEERING: In a memo dated June 27, 1988 Chuck Roth of the
Engineering Department made the following comments:
1. This parcel has previously been reviewed for development
in 1981, 1982, and 1985.
2. The salient item from previous reviews, in terms of
engineering considerations, appears to be the possible need
of a water line connection between the 6" line on King
Street and the 6" line on Neale Street. The Water
Department should be contacted to determine if this
requirement should be carried forward from previous
applications.
3. The electric utility serving the project site is Holy
Cross. They would like, and the City Engineering Department
supports, a seven and a half foot general utility easement
all around the lot line.
4. For subdivision exemption approval, the applicant will
be required to submit a plat in accordance with Section 20-
15. If platting is required for other purposes prior to
construction, the certificate of occupancy should be
conditional on recording an amended plat reflecting as -built
conditions.
2
•
2. FIRE - MARSHAL: The Fire Marshal noted in a memo dated May
10, 1988 that the is within a four minute response time and
that adequate water is available to service the area.
3. HOUSING AUTHORITY: In a memorandum dated June 22, 1988 Jim
Adamski of the Housing Authority notes that the proposal does not
require that employee housing be provided and that he encourages
the applicant to provide the deed restricted housing. This unit
should be restricted to the middle income guidelines.
4. WATER DEPARTMENT: In a memo dated May 18, 1988 Jim Markalunas
of the Water Department notes that the proposal can be served by
the Water Department.
5. Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District: In a memo dated June
30, 1988 Heiko Kuhn of the ACSD states that the project can be
served with the existing facilities.
6. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH: In a memo dated May 11, 1988 Lee Cassin
of the Environmental Health Dept. notes the following:
1. The Environmental Health Department assumes that the
proposal will be served by City Water and sewer.
2. There is no statement as to how many fireplaces and
stoves are planned. The entire project is allowed one
fireplace (which will have to contain gas logs if pending
legislation passes on second reading) and one certified
stove (or a second fireplace containing gas logs if pending
legislation passes.) Unlimited numbers of natural gas
fireplace appliances are allowed. Each of these devices
requires a permit from the Aspen /Pitkin Environmental Health
Department.
3. A fugitive dust plan must be submitted to this office to
ensure that dust is controlled during demolition and
construction. Prior to demolition, the existing building
should be tested to determine whether asbestos is present.
If any is found, it must be disposed of in an approved
manner.
4. The applicant is advised to contact this office for
comment should mine waste, waste rock or mine dumps be
encountered during the excavation phase of the project.
Disposal of such materials off -site is discouraged due to
the possibility of excessive heavy metals being present in
the soil.
5. Since this project is located within the Smuggler
Mountain Hazardous Waste Site, the applicant is urged to
3
contact the U.S. Environmental _ Protection Agency. The EPA
contact -person is Marilyn - Null art 293 -1698 (Denver. - The -
EPA requires information on any building project_within the -
hazardous waste boundaries. - - -
6. Construction activities should be limited to the hours
of 7 am until 10 pm. -
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. This application was made pursuant to the old code. The
proposal to replace three existing units is exempt from the
Growth Management system. In addition, the applicant is
requesting exemption from Growth Management in order to build a
deed restricted employee unit. The applicant is also requesting
exemption from the mandatory PUD provisions of the Code.
2. The three existing units were verified in the process of
reviewing the previous approvals for this property.
3. The application requests exemption from mandatory PUD
(section 24- 8.13). The Planning and Zoning Commission has the
ability to exempt an application from mandatory PUD if you make
the determination that the proposal meets the objectives of the
PUD regulations and therefore is not required to go through the
entire PUD development review. The mandatory PUD development
criteria and the applicants response to those criteria are as
follows:
ii
1. Criterion. Whether there exists sufficient water
pressure and other utilities to service the intended
development.
Response. In the 1985 Residential GMP process, the Planning
Department noted the following: "The Water Department
reported that the proposed development can be serviced with
no problem due to the extension (looping) of the existing
• water line in Park Circle Drive which was accomplished by
Centennial. The existing eight inch (8 ") trunk line in Park
Circle and sewage treatment plant can service this Project."
2. Criterion. The existence of adequate roads to insure
fire protection, snow removal and road maintenance.
Response. The project is accessible by Park Circle and Park
Avenue; fire protection is adequate by virtue of a fire
hydrant approximately fifty feet (50') from the property and
response time is under four (4) minutes.
3. Criterion. The suitability of the site for development
considering the slope, ground and stability, and the
4
possibility of- mud_flow,_ rock falls- and avalanche dangers.
- Response. There are no potential - environmental problems
related with the site. -
4. Criterion. The effects of the development of the
natural water shed, runoff, drainage, soil erosion and
consequent effects on water pollution.
Response. The proposed drainage plan is shown on the Site
Plan. The development will have minimum impact upon
drainage because of the natural terrain of the site. All
drainage from pavement of the site will be retained on -site
through dry wells.
5. Criterion. The possible effects on air quality in the
area and City -wide.
Response. The Applicant acknowledges that the Code allows a
maximum of one (1) woodburning fireplace and one (1)
woodburning stove for the proposed structure.
6. Criterion. The design and location of any proposed
structure, roads, driveways or trils and their compatibility
with the terrain, which is basically flat. Some vegetation
is being relocated on -site.
Response. The proposed structure is compatible with the
terrain, which is basically flat. Some vegetation is being
relocated on -site.
7. Criterion. Whether proposed grading will result in the
least disturbance to the terrain and other natural land
features.
•
Response. Proposed excavation and grading are designed to
have minimum effect upon the naturally flat terrain. (See
Grading and Excavation Plan.)
8. Criterion. The placement and clustering of structures
and reduction of building height and scale to increase open
space and preserve natural features of the terrain.
Response. The proposed structure is placed away from
existing structures, and is within the available height and
FAR restrictions.
In summary the Planning Office does not object to the waiver of
the mandatory PUD procedures for the proposal. The applicants
have adequately addressed the criteria listed above. Given the
form of the development (multi - family) the applicants have
addressed the clustering aspects of the intention of the PUD
5
regulations. In regard to the design aspects of the structure the
applicants propose a three story building with lap wood siding - -
and pitched roof lines (see attached design). -The applicants did - -
not provide us with a copy of the _ elevation and design of the - -
structure if the employee unit is not to be included. The
Planning Office assumption is that the structure will look
basically the same with the smaller inside (employee unit) taken
out.
The proposed setbacks for the two optional designs are as
follows:
PROPOSED: REQUIRED:
4 UNIT DEVELOPMENT: Front yard - 14' 10'
Rear yard - 11' 10'
Side yard - 10' 5'
Side yard - 10' 5'
PROPOSED: REQUIRED:
3 UNIT DEVELOPMENT: Front yard - 22.5' 10'
Rear yard - 10.5' 10'
Side (north) - 30'
Side (south) - 10.5'
In both cases the patios for the structures encroach into the
north side yard setback. The Planning Office recommendation is to
either cut down the size of these patios or move the buildings
further to the south side of the lot. No request for a variation
of the setback was requested in the application.
The application states that a gravel sidewalk will be provided by
the applicant until such time the City Engineering Department
determines the exact location of the road alignment and R.O.W.
along the property lines. At such time this is determined the
applicants will construct a sidewalk meeting code requirements.
The maximum height in the RMF zone district is 25 feet (with
allowance for 5 additional feet to the peak of the roof). The
proposed elevations illustrate a maximum height of 30 feet to the
top of the roof line from existing grade. This meets the code
requirements. The individuals who will be most affected by the
project are those living in the multi- family structures to the
north and northeast. These individuals will lose a great deal of
their existing views towards the south and west due to the height
and location of the proposal. The only way to mitigate the
impact is to require that the applicants build a single story
structure. This design however would require the units be totally
reconfigured on the parcel and that the applicants resubmit a
plan. As you can tell from the prior approval, the new proposal
6
reduces the overall_buildout on_the site and leaves a greater - -_ --
buffer at the intersection of Park - and Park Circle. The
staff feels that the current proposal is a much less intensive
site design than what is currently approved and will - have less
impact on the neighborhood. -
The access to the site is proposed off of Park Circle. Each unit
will contain a 2 car garage and one additional space per unit
supplied in the northwest corner of the lot. This meets the
requirements of the code with regard to parking.
The proposal is to provide limited landscaping around the
buildings. The exact size and type of trees has not been
submitted by the applicant at this time. The Planning Office
recommends that the corner of the property (at the intersection
of the two streets) have the most concentrated area of
landscaping since it will be the most visible from a public
perspective. We also recommend that the applicants supply the
Planning Office with a more detailed landscape plan to be
reviewed by the Planning Commission on the 9th of August. At that
time a final recommendation from the Planning Commission can be
sent to the City Council.
4. The applicant is requesting exemption from the Growth
Management competition pursuant to section 24 -11.2. The proposed
employee unit is a two bedroom 1,600 square feet unit. The
Planning Office and Housing Authority recognize the need in the
community for additional employee housing and strongly encourage
the Planning Commission to approve this exemption request for a
deed restricted unit on site.
5. The request for the three units is consistent with the area
and bulk requirements for the RMF zone district.
6. The 1973 Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan designates this area as
13 H a multi - family area which is consistent with the proposed use.
u f / RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office advises the Planning
1'o or Commission to withhold a final approval of the application until
August 9, 1988 after the Public Hearing on the application has
been officially held.
The Planning Office recommends that at that time, the Planning
Commission approve the request for exemption from mandatory PUD,
approve the request for exemption from Growth Management for the
optional employee unit and approve the application as the
preliminary submittal for the Hamwi subdivision with the
following conditions:
1. The applicants submit a final landscape plan to the
Planning Office no later than August 2nd in order for the
7
•
-
Planning Office to review the plan prior to the August 9th
_ _ - Public Hearing before the Planning Commission.
-2. - The applicants shall submit a final plat and associated -
final 'plat "documents pursuant to the Code requirements.
These documents should include drawings and language which
clarifies the optional employee unit situation. '2" - -?
3. The applicants shall eliminate the patios from within the OP
side yard setback by either moving the building to the north
or making the patio areas smaller.
4. The applicants shall submit a letter to the Planning
Office from the Water Department noting whether the water /
line connection between Neale Street and King Street is
necessary. - :1
5. The applicants shall supply a general utility easementL
pursuant to the Engineering Department memo dated June 27,
1988.
6. The applicants shall be subject to all environmental
health air pollution/ fireplace regulations in place at the
time a building permit is requested and to all conditions as
listed by Lee Cassin in her memorandum dated May 11, 1988.
7. The employee unit shall be restricted to the middle
income guidelines prior to recordation of the final plat.
8. The applicant shall be required to vacate the prior
approval pursuant to section 7 -1007 (c). { ,�;

Re: GMP Exemption for Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision
Dear Cindy:
Please consider this our application on behalf of Paul
Hamwi for exemption from the development allotment procedures
of the Growth Management Quota System for verification of
existing number of units on Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision, and
for the reconstruction of three (3) free - market units on said
lot pursuant to §24- 11.2(a) of the Aspen City Code, and for an
exemption for the construction of one (1) additional employee
housing unit, deed restricted in accordance with the City's
adopted employee housing guidelines for the middle income level
pursuant to §24- 11.2(f) of the Aspen City Code.
The parcel in question is located at the Northwest corner
of Park Avenue and Park Circle and contains 13,390 sq. ft. It
is currently improved with a two -story wood structure
containing three (3) apartments which the owner proposes to
demolish and reconstruct, together with the above - mentioned
employee unit of approximately 1,000 sq. ft.
This proposal was previously submitted as part of the
Sunny Park project proposal in the 1985 Residential GMP
competition. At that time, the existing number of units on Lot
4, Sunny Park Subdivision, had been verified and found to be
three existing free market units exempt from the Growth
Management procedures in the Planning and Zoning Commission
Resolution No. 86 -4. It is submitted that that finding is
still applicable at this time, and that this application is
appropriate for direct presentation to the City Council.
Enclosed are eight (8) copies of a site plan, landscape
plan, conceptual architectural floor plans and elevations,
together with a list of adjacent property owners prepared by
Pitkin County Title, and a check for review fees in the amount
of $1,400.00.

Re: P.U.D. Exemption for Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision
Dear Cindy:
Kindly consider this our application on behalf of Paul
Hamwi for exemption from the mandatory P.U.D. provisions of
Article 8 of the Zoning Code as provided in §24 -8.13 for the
property located on Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision, City of
Aspen, Pitkin County, Colorado.
This application is based on the fact that such exemption
was granted to the Sunny Park project proposed for said Lot 4
by the Planning & Zoning Commission and the City 'Council in
connection with the 1985 Residential GMP competition. It is
submitted that such exemption remains appropriate since the
StiCi
P.U.D. review criteria principally apply to development on
steep slopes which this already developed lot cannot be
characterized as. There are eight criteria for mandatory
P.U.D. review. The P &Z found that the concerns in those eight
criteria did not affect the site since the first .seven criteria
deal with utilities and steepness which are not an issue on
this flat site. Criteria No. 8 is again intended to address
steep sites that have a limited suitable building site, while
this parcel is a flat site. This application is consistent
with the existing, as well as proposed, Code. We believe that
the plans that have been submitted preserve the natural
features of the terrain, allow for adequate open space, and
provide for building height and scale that are comiiiementary
with the surrounding neighborhood. At the time of the 1985
Residential GMP competition, no one, including the City
Engineering Department, could understand why this property was
included in the mandatory P.U.D. provision since it is a
classic flat lot, suitable for normal development approaches.
The applicant, therefore, respectfully requests that this
parcel be exempted from the mandatory P.U.D. requirements, and
that all further development of this lot be dealt with in an
exemption from subdivision process as spelled out in §20- 19(b).
That Code section allows the City Council to exempt land from
subdivision when such division of land is not within the intent
Ms. Cindy Houben
March 28, 1988
Page 2
or purpose of that chapter because the requirement is
redundant, serves no public purpose, and is unnecessary in
relation to land use policies in the City of Aspen when a
triplex which merely replaces the existing units on site is
built on a previously divided lot.
While I believe the above application to be complete as
presented, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned
should you require anything further. On the other hand, if you
concur in my assessment, I would appreciate your scheduling
this matter for the earliest hearing possible. Thank you for
your thoughtful attention.

Re: Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision- -Hamwi
Dear Cindy:
Pursuant to your request, please accept this letter as
clarification of and supplement to the Applications for GMP
Exemption and PUD Exemption for Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision,
submitted to you on March 28, 1988, by Richard Luhman of this
office.
1. The Applicant acknowledges that approval of GMP
Exemption will allow him to reconstruct three (3) existing
free - market units on Lot 4 with one (1) additional employee
housing unit, deed - restricted as a middle- income housing unit.
Upon approval of this GMP Exemption Application, the Applicant
agrees to relinquish the four (4) free - market units allocated
in the Growth Management competition of 1985.
2. As shown on plans submitted, although the proposed
plan has more square footage than the 1985 approved plan, the
proposed plan consists of fewer units.
3. Verification of Ownership of the subject property is
provided in Exhibit "A" attached hereto.
4. The GMP Exemption Application, dated March 28, 1988,
noted that the employee unit would consist of approximately
1,000 square feet. The Applicant requests clarification of the
square footage represented because the plan submitted consists
of a 2- bedroom employee unit of 1,660 square feet.
5. The request for exemption from the mandatory P.U.D.
requirements is based upon the satisfaction of criteria in
§24 -8.13 as follows:
a.(i) Criterion. Whether there exists sufficient
water pressure and other utilities to service the intended
development.
a.(ii) Response. In the 1985 Residential GMP
process, the Planning Department noted the following: "The
Water Department reported that the proposed development can be
Ms. Cindy Houben
May 4, 1988
Page 2
serviced with no problem due to the extension (looping) of the
existing water line in Park Circle Drive which was accomplished
by Centennial. The existing eight inch (8 ") trunk line in Park
Circle and sewage treatment plant can service this Project."
b.(i) Criterion. The existence of adequate roads
to insure fire protection, snow removal and road maintenance.
b.(ii) Response. The Project is accessible by
Park Circle and Park Avenue; fire protection is adequate by
virtue of a fire hydrant approximately fifty feet (50') from
the property and response time is under four (4) minutes.
c.(i) Criterion. The suitability of the site for
development considering the slope, ground and stability, and
the possibility of mud flow, rock falls and avalanche dangers.
c.(ii) Response. There are no potential
environmental problems related with the site.
d.(i) Criterion. The effects of the development
of the natural water shed, runoff, drainage, soil erosion and
consequent effects on water pollution.
d.(ii) Response. The proposed drainage plan is
shown on the Site Plan. The development will have minimum
impact upon drainage because of the natural terrain of the
site. All drainage from pavement of the site will be retained
on -site through dry wells.
e.(i) Criterion. The possible effects on air
quality in the area and City -wide.
e.(ii) Response. The Applicant acknowledges that
the Code allows a maximum of one (1) woodburning fireplace and
one (1) woodburning stove for the proposed structure.
f.(i) Criterion. The design and location of any
proposed structure, roads, driveways or trails and their
compatibility with the terrain.
f.(ii) Response. The proposed structure is
compatible with the terrain, which is basically flat. Some
vegetation is being relocated on -site.
g.(i) Criterion. Whether proposed grading will
result in the least disturbance to the terrain and other
natural land features.
g.(ii) Response. Proposed excavation and grading
are designed to have minimum effect upon the naturally flat
terrain. (See Grading and Excavation Plan.)
Ms. Cindy Houben
May 4, 1988
Page 3
h.(i) Criterion. The placement and clustering of
structures and reduction of building height and scale to
increase open space and preserve natural features of the
terrain.
h.(ii) Response. The proposed structure is placed
away from existing structures, and is within the available
height and FAR restrictions.
If you have any questions or comments regarding the
enclosed, please contact me at your earliest opportunity.

Re: Hamwi GMP Exemption, PUD Exemption and Subdivision Parcel
ID# 2737- 074 -04 -004
The Aspen /Pitkin Environmental Health Department has reviewed the
above - mentioned land use submittal for the following concerns.
The authority for this review is granted to this office, which is
a recognized land use referral agency, by the Aspen /Pitkin
Planning Office.
SEWAGE TREATMENT AND COLLECTION:
We assume the project will be served by the Aspen Consolidated
Sanitation District which is in compliance with policies of this
office.
ADEQUATE PROVISIONS FOR WATER NEEDS:
We assume this project will be served by the City of Aspen Water
System which is in conformance with policies of this office.
AIR OUALITY:
9- There is no statement as to how many fireplaces and stoves are
planned. The entire project is allowed one fireplace (which
will have to contain gas logs if pending legislation passes on
second reading) and one certified stove (or a second fireplace
containing gas logs if pending legislation passes.) Unlimited
numbers of natural gas fireplace appliances are allowed. Each of
these devices requires a permit from the Aspen /Pitkin Environmen-
tal Health Department.
! A fugitive dust plan must be submitted to this office to ensure
that dust is controlled during demolition and construction.
Prior to demolition, the existing building should be tested to
determine whether asbestos is present. If any is found, it must
be disposed of in an approved manner.
NOISE:
It is not anticipated that there will be any noise problems after
construction.;-,Construction activities should be limited to the

hours of 7 am until 10 pm.
CONFORMANCE WITH OTHER LAWS:
None applicable.
CONTAMINATED SOILS:
f The applicant is advised to contact this office for comment
should mine waste, waste rock or mine dumps be encountered during
the excavation phase of the project. Disposal of such materials
off -site is discouraged due to the possibility of excessive heavy
metals being present in the soil.
•
Since this project is located within the Smuggler Mountain
Hazardous Waste Site, the applicant is urged to contact the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA contact person is
Marilyn Null at 293 -1698 (Denver). The EPA requires information
on any building project within the hazardous waste boundaries.

RE: Hamwi Exemption
DATE: June 22, 1988,?
This project does not require employee housing. The applicant is
offering to deed restriction a 1600 SF employee unit to the
middle income guidelines. Although this restriction is not
required, we not only approve what Mr. Hamwi is doing, but
encourage it.
He is restricting an employee unit to the middle income
guidelines. The plans indicate a unit of approximately 1600 SF.
We recommend that the applicant be allowed to rent the unit under
the Housing Authority Guidelines (1200 SF largest rental price
applicable even though unit is larger). The deed restriction
should be approved by the Housing Authority prior to recordation
and prior to issuance of any temporary or final CO.
We will be glad to work with Mr. Hamwi in getting this unit deed
restricted.
Any questions, please call.

Re: Hamwi GMP Exemption, PUD Exemption and Subdivision
Exemption
Having reviewed the above referenced application, and having made
a site inspection, the Engineering Department has the following
comments:
1. This parcel has previously been reviewed for development in
1981, 1982, and 1985.
2. The salient item from previous reviews, in terms of engineer-
ing considerations, appears to be the possible need of a water
line connection between the 6" line on King Street and the 6"
line on Neale Street. The Water Department should be contacted
to determine if this requirement should be carried forward from
previous applications.
3. The electric utility serving the project site is Holy Cross.
They would like, and the City Engineering Department supports, a
seven and a half foot general utility easement all around the lot
line.

Re: Request for Amendment of Sunny Park Application
Dear Cindy:
Please accept this letter as a request for amendment of
the Sunny Park application. The applicant, Paul Hamwi, is
seeking approval from the Planning & Zoning Commission to have
the option to construct the employee unit. The current
application proposes three free - market units (Units A, C, and
D) and one employee unit (Unit B), to be deed restricted as a
middle- income unit. Due to financial considerations, Mr. Hamwi
is requesting that the Board approve the proposed plan, giving
him the option of deleting the employee housing unit.
As we discussed, Mr. Hamwi wishes to go before the Board
on July 19, as scheduled. Prior to that time, the consultants
will provide your office with a revised plan showing the
project without the employee unit. We will also be providing
any necessary information to the referral agencies in order to
get an informal review prior to next week's meeting.
Thank you for your consideration and cooperation in this
amendment request. Please let me know if you need additional
information.
Sincerely,

Re: Sunny Park Project
Dear Cindy:
Please consider this letter a request for a vested
property right in the approved final plan, i.e. Site Specific
Development Plan for the Sunny Park Subdivision. The Sunny
Park Project is currently scheduled for review before the

the Commission will consider a request by the applicant, Paul

PUD provisions.
In order to expedite the procedure, we request that the
public hearing for vested property rights be held before the
City Council simultaneously with the approval of the Final
Plan.

Re: GMP Exemption for Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision
Dear Cindy:
Please consider this our application on behalf of Paul
Hamwi for exemption from the development allotment procedures
of the Growth Management Quota System for verification of
existing number of units on Lot 4, Sunny Park Subdivision, and
for the reconstruction of three (3) free - market units on said
lot pursuant to §24- 11.2(a) of the Aspen City Code, and for an
exemption for the construction of one (1) additional employee
housing unit, deed restricted in accordance with the City's
adopted employee housing guidelines for the middle income level
pursuant to §24- 11.2(f) of the Aspen City Code.
The parcel in question is located at the Northwest corner
of Park Avenue and Park Circle and contains 13,390 sq. ft. It
is currently improved with a two -story wood structure
containing three (3) apartments which the owner proposes to
demolish and reconstruct, together with the above - mentioned
employee unit of approximately 1,000 sq. ft.
This proposal was previously submitted as part of the
Sunny Park project proposal in the 1985 Residential GMP
competition. At that time, the existing number of units on Lot
4, Sunny Park had been verified and found to be
three existing free market units exempt from the Growth
Management procedures in the Planning and Zoning Commission
Resolution No. 86 -4. It is submitted that that finding is
still applicable at this time, and that this application is
appropriate for direct presentation to the City Council.
Enclosed are eight (8) copies of a site plan, landscape
plan, conceptual architectural floor plans and elevations,
together with a list of adjacent property owners prepared by
Pitkin County Title, and a check for review fees in the amount
of $1,400.00.
