RE: Andrews /Pletts Stream Margin Review
DATE: November 11, 1983
Attached is material received from Jane Andrews and Sarah Pletts re-
questing Stream Margin Review and GMP Exemption. They are requesting
these approvals in order to add an addition of approximately 300 s.f.
to a commercial building and to add decks and a greenhouse. This
case has been scheduled to go before the Planning and Zoning Commission
on December 20, 1983. We would appreciate having you comments back
by December 6, 1983, in order for the Planning Office to have ample
time to prepare for its presentation to the Commission on December 20.
Thank you.

Dear Sirs:
We are applying for a stream margin review and
have submitted a development plan which supplies the
required information in Sec. 24 -6.3 of the code.
1. Our building and proposed decks and greenhouse
are not located within a flood hazard area designed by
the U.S. Corps of Engineers Flood Plain Report for the
Roaring Fork River. This is shown on the map we sub-
mitted and will 'ze further testified to in writing by
Nick Lampiris, a qualified geologist.
2. There is no trail designed within the develop-
ment site. The City of Aspen has a trail easement
through our property, but has not decided whether or
not the trail should be on our property or across the
river. If the trail is planned on our property in the
future, we will designate it for public use.
3. We are presently in conformance with the Roaring
Fork Greenway Plan and will plant trees and flowers
around and on our property.
4. No vegetation will be removed by these improve-
ments. At present the area behind our build (on oqr
property) is bare of vegetation because cars were
parked there for several years when an automobile repair
shop was in the building. That shop is no longer in
operation. We plan to clean up that area, plant trees
and re -seed the bare ground, plus planting some flowers
where they w :.i1 enhance the property. These will be
both aspen and cottonwood trees. There has been no
erosion of the stream during the 7 years that we have
owned the property, and our proposed additions will not
effect the stream in any way. They have all been de-
signed by an architect and an engineer licensed to
practice in Aspen.
5. We have no intention of changing the stream
channel in any way. Our decks are not near the river
and the entire building is on fill done before the
building was built over 13 years ago. The fill puts
our building high above the river.

6. We will be enhancing the river and the trail by
our revegetation, decks and greenhouse. At present,
the site is ugly and a detriment to the Rio Grand
Trail. We will beautify our property by the re- seeding
and planting of trees. Jane Andrews is now on the Parks
and Trails Committee so will work with them on the
restoring of the riverfront to its former natural state.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely yours,

MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Richard Grice, Planning Office
RE: Andrews /Pletts Stream Margin Review and Commercial
GMP Exemption
DATE: December 20, 1983
The attached application seeks stream margin review approval and a
commercial GMP exemption for the addition of a 73.5 square foot
greenhouse and 222.75 square foot on three decks to building "B" of
the Andrews /McFarlin Condominiums (zoned S /C /I) for a total exemption
request of 296.25 square feet. The additions are planned for Zebra
Studios which was recently approved as a residential use.
The proposed additions will in no way impact the stream channel or
riparian zone. The improvements are each planned for the the second
floor of the building with only support columns touching the ground.
No vegetation will be impacted.
Commercial GMP exemptions are permitted upon a finding that the small
addition of space will have "minimal or manageable impact upon the
community." We believe this to be the case and have no objections to
the requested exemption. We understand from the applicant that the
space is actually used as a combination commercial and residential
and that the two uses are basically inseparable. It is for this
reason that have brought the application forward as a commercial GMP
exemption, however, in the event the Commission feels the review
superfluous we will have no objections.
Numerous and extensive building code problems have been encountered
by the applicant and the Building Department as they attempt to adapt
this building for a mix of residential and industrial uses. You will
recall that the Planning Office had consistently opposed residential
uses in the S /C /I zone for reason of incompatibility of uses and
scarcity of S /C /I space. While the building code problems are not an
issue in this review, we want to note for the record that compliance
with the requirements of the Uniform Building Code will be required
by the Building Department prior to the issuance of building permits.
The City Attorney's office has noted some additional peripheral
issues for the record and to assist the Building Department in its
building permit review. Those issues are as follows:
"a. The site shown on the submitted plans is much larger than
the site described on the recorded condominium plat. This
obviously will affect open space calculations.
b. Decks "A" and "B" and the greenhouse are shown significantly
close to the property line to give rise to a potential set
back problem.
c. The application is correct saying that while no trail now
goes through the property, the City has (pursuant to the
condominiumization) the right to demand a 20 foot easement
somewhere on the property at a location to be determined by
the City. The stream margin review should contain some
mention of this obligation pursuant to Section 24- 6.3(c)(2).
d. If the owners don't intend to park cars behind the building
any longer, perhaps they will terminate their encroachment
license for parking there. That would reduce pollution in
that area and mitigate impacts, if any, caused by the con-
struction."
MEMO: Andrews /Pletts Margin Review
and Commercial GMP Exemption
December 20, 1983
Page Two
The City Engineering Office noted the need for a complete development
plan with a signed surveyor's certificate as well as several issues
unrelated to this review. We recommend that the approval be con-
ditioned upon the submittal of the requested development plan. Chuck
Roth's memo of December 8, 1983, is attached for your review.
The Planning Office conducted a site inspection of the property in
order to consider the appropriateness of a trail. Due to site con-
straints, a trail through this property will, in all likelihood,
never be requested. Nonetheless, as noted by Gary Esary, a trail
easement dedication is a requirement of stream margin and such de-
dication on request should be a condition of approval.
The Planning Office recommends that you grant approval of the stream
margin review and GMP exemption subject to the following:
1. Within thirty (30) days of this approval, the applicant
shall provide the City Engineering Department with a com-
plete development plan signed by a registered surveyor, and
2. The applicant shall, upon the request of the City of Aspen,
dedicate a twenty (20) foot trail easement through the pro-
perty in a location to be determined by the City.

RE: Proposed Deck, Andrews-McFarlanctCondmminium
Dear Mrs. Andrews:
This letter is intended to summarize the conclusions reached
during my site inspection of your property along the Roaring
Fork River in Aspen, discussions with you and Jim Reser of
Alpine Surveys, and my subsequent studies of pertinent maps.
Generally, my findings are that the deck under construction,
as well as the deck proposed to be constructed, should not
be affected by the theoretical 100 -year frequency flood.
The building under consideration, as well as the one directly
to the north, have been built, at least in part, on fill
placed along the river's edge some ten to twenty years ago.
The 100 -year floodplain study was performed by the Army Corps
of Engineers after the modifications in this area, and does
show, according to survey work by Alpine Surveys, to be east
and north of the new construction.
In any event, recent events have influenced my thinking con-
cerning possible encroachment of flood waters toward the building
under consideration. These are:
1. The level of the Roaring Fork River in this vicinity
during the exceptionally high run -off of this spring
(1983). According to frequent observations by Jim
Reser and others, the Roaring Fork River in this
immediate area was some four to six feet below bank
full level.
2. The modification of the Mill Street Bridge after
the high spring run -off has further decreased the
potential for flooding in this area because of the
near elimination of the down- stream restriction
there. In light of the new stream cross - sectional
area there, it is my opinion that a recalculation
of the 100 -year floodplain boundary would show it
further to the northeast.
November 15, 19
Proposed Deck, Andrews - McFarlan Condominium
Page Two
In conclusion, I believe that the decks proposed for construc-
tion should not be threatened by the 100 -year frequency flood.
Even if the Roaring Fork River should overflow its banks in
this area, most of the water would flow north of the condo-
minium resulting in, at worst, back water wetting of the northern
most deck.. If you have further questions, please do not hesi-
tate to contact me.
Sincerely,

FROM: Chuck Roth, City Engineering Department C C
nAmE: December 8, 1983
RE: Andrews /Pletts Stream Margin Review
Having reviewed the above application, and having made a
site inspection, the Engineering Department has the following
comments:
1. The review package which the Engineering Department
received was incomplete and it was only by chance that
it was found that a document was missing from the package -
the letter from the geologist.
2. None of the application letters nor the referral memo mentions
that an awning is also proposed to be added. The architectural
drawings received (sheets 4.1 and 4.3) show an awning, although
it is not noted as being "new." The extent of the proposed
awning on the east side of the building is not shown. This
could be a significant factor because of a problem with the
utility meters and boxes which are located on that east side.
3. At the time of the site inspection (December 8, 1983),
the utility meters and boxes were severely encased in ice and
icicles which may have weighed a hundred pounds or more.
Icicles were suspended from the roof edge, and the service
drop lines were heavily and perhaps dangerously encased with
ice.
The building on this side is approximately 51' long. Ice was
only evident on approximately the southern 20' of this side,
wherein are located said utilities. This is curious. Perhaps
the space under this portion of the roof has a poorly insulated
ceiling. The utilities should be contacted for their analysis
of this hazard. The awning may ameliorate the situation for
the meters and boxes (if it is up during the winter - it is not
indicated on the plan if it is a temporary, summer, or permanent
awning), but not for the service drop lines.
4. The development plan lacks the surveyor's certificate.
5. Neither the existing buildings nor the proposed additions
fall within the 100 -year floodplain.
6. Boundary monuments are improvements, and the monuments
should be indicated on the development plan.
Page Two

7. There is a discrepancy between the developlment plan and
the recorded condominium plan, Book 14 at Page 82 in the area
and shape of the parcel. The development plan shows an
additional approximate 300' in a northeasterly direction of the
northerly portion of the parcel by some twenty feet wide.
8. The Engineering Department would like the utility problems
addressed and a completed development plan submitted prior to
issuance of a building permit or certificate of occupancy.

RE: Andrews /Pletts Stream Margin Review
1) Improvements have begun on Building 'B'. Condition #4 approved
by P &Z on April 6, 1982, requires that the owners enter into a
written agreement with the City stating that at the time of
improvement of Building 'B', a 20 -foot trail easement would be
dedicated.
2) A building permit for interior remodel of the Andrew's unit
was issued on 8- 22 -83. The plans had indicated a "future proposed
deck ". This deck has already been completed without building
department approval.
3) The addition of decks, trail easements, etc., must have some
affect on parking. I have yet to see a comprehensive parking plan
for this property and feel that one is needed to assess these
impacts.
4) There is also a 25% open space requirement. I have never seen
this designated and question if the new construction has any
impack in reducing open space.

Richard Grice,
Re: Andrews /Pletts Stream Margin and GMP Exemption
1. No apparent open legal issues here - -both requested reviews are pretty
straightforward and fact - intensive.
2. I do, however, have some peripheral comments for the record that relate more
to the Building Department review of the permits eventually requested.
a. The site shown on the submitted plans is much larger than the site
described on the recorded condominium plat. This obviously will affect
open space calculations.
b. Decks "A" and "B" and the greenhouse are shown sufficiently close
to the property line to give rise to a Potential setback Problem.
c. The application letter is correct in saying that while no trail now
goes through the property, the City has (pursuant to the condominiumization)
the right to demand a 2'1' easement somewhere on the Property at a location
to be determined by the City. The stream margin review should contain
some mention of this obligation pursuant to 24- 6.1(c) (2).
d. If the owners don't intend to park cars behind the building any longer,
perhaps they will terminate their encroachment license for parking there.
That would reduce pollution in that area and mitigate imnacts, if any,
caused by the construction.
