Reeular Meeting Aspen City Council January 9, 2012
RESOLUTION #4, SERIES OF 2012 — Temporary Use Aspen Country Day/Aspen Meadows
Jennifer Phelan, community development department, said this application is a request to operate
the Aspen Country Day School on the Aspen Meadows campus for the 2012-2013 school year.
The applicants are the Aspen Music Festival and School, the Aspen Country Day, and the Aspen
Institute. The Meadows campus is made up of the Aspen Music Festival and School, the Aspen
Institute and Center for Physics. Ms. Phelan noted this area is zoned Academic with an SPA
overlay. Ms. Phelan reminded Council Aspen Country Day School's campus is being
redeveloped and they are requesting to operate the school at Aspen Meadows using existing
buildings and temporary structures. Ms. Phelan said the school serves 138 families, 207 students
in pre-K to 81h grade, with 52 staff.
The applicant has provided a transportation mitigation plan, which has been reviewed by the
city's transportation department; the highlights of which are encouraging bus ridership by
providing buses at no cost to the students, providing an additional bus route, an additional staff
commuter vehicle, monitoring onsite parking as well as drop off and pick up, rerouting the cross
town shuttle to stop near the campus. This request is to be in effect from August 2012 to June
2013. The applicants have offered staging of the Pro Cycling Challenge on part of the parking
lot will not be used by the school. Staff recommends approval with conditions; the zoning will
permit the operation of a school; the temporary relocation allows safety for children while the
school is being redeveloped.
Alan Fletcher, Aspen Music Festival and School, told Council the music festival and Aspen
Country Day School have co -existed on Castle Creek road and have an agreement for another
100 years. Fletcher said the original plan was for 4 years of construction allowing both schools
to run, winter and summer. Fletcher said there was a suggestion to move the Country Day
School off -site for one year to see if there would be economies of scale. The design team agreed
there would be savings in time, safety and money and in the first year of construction if the
Country Day School moved off site, 60% of the construction would be completed.
Fletcher told Council they had a plan drawn up to take to the Aspen Institute and Aspen Center
for Physics and they have approval of all the partners on the Meadow campus. Fletcher said the
applicants went through and leafleted every house in the west end, sent post cards, held 3 public
meetings and engaged in written correspondence. Fletcher reiterated this is a temporary use, it is
essential to the operation that the 2012 music season will not be interrupted and the site will be
back to its state in 2013, and of incalculable benefits to both organizations. Councilman Frisch
asked about possible delays. Fletcher said if there are delays, some construction aspects can be
shifted to future years. Fletcher said some site work on campus will be done during the summer
2012 session.
Councilman Skadron asked about the outreach dealing with traffic mitigation and enforcement
and where will the cost of those lie. Fletcher stated the immediate concerns was traffic. Fletcher
noted there are no evening events as part of Country Day School, no students who drive to
school. Fletcher said there were concerns raised about landscaping, most of which would be on
the city right-of-way. Caroline Hines, Country Day School, told Council they have done traffic
counts and have presented the city with anticipated results for the relocated campus. Ms. Hines
noted the student ridership is 105 students/day. The down valley bus is full and ACDS propose
10
Regular Meeting Aspen City Council January 9, 2012
to add an additional bus for next year; they also propose to make the buses free; right now it is
$150/month. Ms. Hines said the school is aware that the success of this plan will depend on a
good transportation plan and being a good neighbor. Ms. Hines told Council the applicants
expect with these transportation measures that the number of car trips will decrease. Ms. Hines
noted the current location on Castle Creek is not safe for students and faculty to ride their bikes
and the applicants hope this location will encourage more walking or bike riding.
Councilman Skadron asked if there is a cost for the proposed traffic mitigation and is it
appropriate for any of this to fall on the city. Ms. Phelan said the applicants will bear the costs of
the extra transportation, the school signage and the onsite traffic directors. Councilman Skadron
asked if these verbal representations not come to fruition and the impacts are in excess of what is
expected and there is additional financing burden, who is responsible. Ms. Phelan noted the
applicant is responsible to rectify any deficiencies. Jim Curtis, representing the Aspen Institute,
told Council the traffic mitigation plan will be attached to the resolution so that there will be no
misunderstanding. Curtis said the applicants will have personnel geared up to do the
enforcement; they are aware they have to set aside personnel and money to fulfill the
commitments of the traffic mitigation plan.
Mayor Ireland opened the public hearing.
Brill Frazer, 4`h and Gillespie, noted they are affected neighbors and attended the neighborhood
presentations. Frazer agreed there will be inconvenience and additional traffic to neighbors.
Frazer said the minor hassles do not compare with the significant advantages to the Music
Festival and the Country Day School. Frazer said they want to help these applicants. Lars and
Anders Pomeroy, Country Day Students, support this temporary relocation. Lars pointed out an
important issue for the students is the noise and disruption from construction while they are
trying to conduct classes. Lars said it becomes difficult to focus with all the commotion. Jim
Pomeroy agreed the main issue is the safety of the children and this temporary relocation will
provide a safe environment for one year. Pomeroy agreed the city and citizens need to learn how
to control the traffic in the west end.
Lisa Markalunas said this will have a lot of impacts for the west end. Ms. Markalunas noted the
neighbors are willing to accommodate the Country Day School to make it safe for the students.
Ms. Markalunas said the traffic is a larger issue than the west end. Ms. Markalunas agreed the
applicant's outreach has been phenomenal. There has to be stepped up enforcement in the west
end. Ms. Markalunas said it is important that everything be done to also support the
neighborhood. Ms. Markalunas suggested the cross town shuttle could start earlier than S AM.
Curtis stated the applicants support anything that can reduce traffic and fulfill the traffic
mitigation plan. Ms. Markalunas said the neighbors would like to see a stop sign at Gillespie and
51h as people go too fast on this segment of the west end.
Trish Aragon, city engineer, said there is not enough traffic on Gillespie to warrant a stop sign at
this intersection. Ms. Aragon noted when intersection with little traffic have stop signs, they
become ineffectual. Ms. Aragon said it would be more effective to have personnel at this
intersection in the morning and when school gets out. Curtis pointed out the traffic mitigation
plan contains personnel for key intersections in the morning and afternoons.

Regular Meetini: Aspen Citv Council January 9, 2012
Marcia Goshorn said she supports the temporary use; this property was designed as an
educational campus. Ms. Goshorn noted the traffic in the west end has little to do with the
Country Day School and should be studied. Giles Thornley, representing 4 properties on
Gillespie street, said they are grateful to the Country Day School and the Music Festival and the
time they put into neighborhood outreach. Thornley said the property owners have given their
acceptance as long as there is landscaping along the north side of Gillespie. This is an area of
much use and this is an opportunity to work in partnership with the Music festival. The property
owners commit to contributing to these improvements. Thornley said the neighbors would like
to see more permanent landscaping and he will have a master plan drawn up by May 2012 that
will hopefully be in place by May 2013. Curtis told Council the applicants concur and thanked
the generosity of these 4 property owners. Curtis noted the permit for landscaping would be
issued by the city parks and engineering departments. Curtis said all parties will have to agree to
work cooperatively on the landscaping.
Bill Stirling, west end resident, said this will be a welcome experience to have a livelier west
end. Stirling agreed any way the Music Festival can be helped is good for the entire community.
Stirling noted this use will result in less traffic activity than the music festival events.
Mayor Ireland closed the public hearing.
Mayor Ireland suggested a provision that applicants, at their expense, take measures necessary to
keep traffic levels at 43 morning and night trips. Mayor Ireland agreed drivers go fast in the
west end, which is not the applicant's problem. Councilman Frisch said most of the opposition
he has heard is not applicant issues, that the west end if becoming more populated and busier.
Councilman Frisch said he does not see students going from bus to car because of change of
locations. Councilman Frisch noted the applicants outreach has been great. Mayor Ireland said
the city needs an assurance from the applicant that they will, at its own expense, do what it takes
necessary to achieve the stated traffic goals. Ms. Phelan entered exhibit F into the record, letters
from Lisa Markalunas, Steve Falender and Claude Salter.
Mayor Ireland moved to approve Resolution #4, Series of 2012, adding that the applicant will, at
its own expense, take steps necessary to create compliance with the stated goals in the traffic
management plan; seconded by Councilman Skadron.
Thomely suggested speed bumps to slow the traffic down. Mayor Ireland said he would like a
needs assessment before installing any speed bumps.
All in favor, motion carried.
RESOLUTION #5, SERIES OF 2012 — GMQS Rollover
Chris Bendon, community development department, reminded Council annually considers
whether to roll forward the unused growth management allotments. Bendon said there is a full
complement of allotments available from 2011 that Council could roll over to 2012. Staff is
recommending nothing be rolled forward; there are plenty of projects in the pipeline and a stable
level of growth occurring.

Traffic, Parking, Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan
As Aspen Country Day School plans for a nine -month relocation to the Aspen Meadows, we have
focused on the traffic impacts on the Meadows campus and the adjacent neighborhood. We have
analyzed the demographic information of our current families, reviewed traffic numbers from
previous years, collected current traffic information, and evaluated our current resources to
develop a plan that will address this issue.
Our goals for this mitigation plan are:
• To reduce the impact of student, parent, and teacher traffic on the Aspen community in general,
and the West End neighborhood in particular
• To proactively communicate with our school community and consistently communicate with the
surrounding neighborhood, so we can be responsive to their concerns.
Background:
In 2006, MAA and ACDS retained Krager & Associates of Denver, CO to produce a traffic study
in conjunction with the development of a master plan for the Castle Creek campus. The study
confirmed that the peak traffic hours for the school are from 7:45-8:30AM and 2:45-3:15 PM
from Monday -Friday. They compiled data on actual "trips" to campus during these peak periods.
To balance this data, the school collected similar data on vehicle trips on November 3, 2011. The
chart below reflects both the 2006 data and 2011 data. Please note that the 2011 data was
collected from 7:00 -8:45 AM and 2:30-3:30PM. The entry and exit numbers do not match due to
vehicles departing outside the data collection times. Many faculty depart after 3:30 as indicated
in the staff vehicle PM exit count. As expected, there are fewer PM parent vehicle trips because
more students ride the bus directly to after -school activities.

To provide a perspective on the traffic counts reported by Krager & Associates, the table below
shows the total enrollment of the school, the full-time equivalent enrollment of the school, total
enrollment from grades K-8, the total bus ridership, the total down valley bus riders (Carbondale
to Snowmass Village Intercept lot) identified as consistent or part-time riders and up valley riders
(Aspen, Highlands, Cemetery Lane) identified as consistent or part-time riders for the school
years 2006-7 to the present. For clarification, the full-time equivalent enrollment takes into
account the fact that PK students do not come five days a week. Additionally, PK students ride
the bus for free and are not included in the bus ridership numbers. Therefore, the base number of
students to compare bus ridership is the "Enrollment K-8."The school anticipates that the
enrollment numbers for the 2012-13 school year will mirror the present.

The school has also committed to a down valley faculty vehicle to encourage carpooling. When
the school was able to provide a 14-passenger van, six to 10 faculty typically rode in the van. Due
to safety considerations, we replaced the van with a Suburban for the 2010-11 school year, and it
is usually filled with 5-8 faculty. The table below reflects the total number of employees at the
school and their area of residence.

Mitigation Plan
As already noted, ACDS will focus on reducing the impact of student, parent, and teacher traffic
on the Aspen community in general, and the West End neighborhood in particular. The critical
parts of this effort are:
• The school will provide its bus service at no charge to the students for the 2012-13
school year. Currently, the school charges $150 per month per student to ride the bus
full-time. To encourage more ridership, we do provide a 50% sibling discount; half the
monthly fee for students who select only AM or PM participation; as well as a flat $5.00
per ride charge for students using the service on a random basis. We believe that a free
service is the best incentive to motivate increased ridership on school buses. To provide a
context for the financial impact of this decision, the following chart reflects the school's
total transportation budget for the past three years, the current year as well as a financial
projection reflecting the total subsidy of a free bus service next year.

• To accommodate this increased ridership, the school will commit to providing
additional bus routes. At this time, the school runs three bus routes — down valley
(Carbondale to AABC), Aspen, Highlands/Cemetery Lane. With the goal of
accommodating increased ridership, the school is planning to offer four routes next year.
The most effective reorganization will he to split the current down valley service into two
different routes to increase the total down valley bus capacity. The school intends to have
one bus serve Carbondale to Basalt with another bus serving Old Snowmass to AABC.
Based on the current demographics of where our students currently live, we believe that
this route change has the greatest potential impact. The chart below accounts for all of
our current students PK-8 and identifies where in the valley they access Highway 82. As
is reflected in the chart, the down valley bus could have 59 students, the mid valley bus
could have 61 students, and the two up valley routes would accommodate the remaining
84 students.

Based on our intent to use the existing circulation pattern through the Gillespie lots, we
plan to have all buses use 3'd street each morning. The three non -Aspen buses will travel
north on 3 d St. from Main St. to the campus. The Aspen in -town route will be determined
by actual bus ridership but will ultimately access the campus off of 3' St. as well. in the
afternoon, our in -town route will leave the campus at the 5" St. exit and begin its route
through the West End, which will also be dictated by daily ridership.'I'he three other
buses will leave from the 5" St. exit and continue down 5'h Street to Main St.
• To further reduce the number of car trips to campus, the school will also commit
resources to additional faculty transportation options. The school, as noted earlier,
currently provides a Chevy Suburban to down valley faculty to utilize for car-pooling. It
is currently used at capacity most days, and we believe we would have additional riders
with a larger vehicle. To achieve this goal, the school will purchase a 14-passenger
vehicle, which will nearly double the down valley capacity. The additional vehicle with
this capacity for the down valley group will enable the Suburban to be committed to an
in -town car pool. With many faculty clustered in the east end of town, Hunter Creek and
Smuggler area, the Suburban will reduce a good number of car trips by faculty.
• The in town location of the Meadows campus will also allow many
students and staff to either walk or bike to school. The proximity of the school will
motivate students and staff to seek alternative ways to get to campus each day. 'The
school will work with the City Transportation and Engineering departments to implement
signage that defines a "School Zone", which will create a safer environment for bikes and
pedestrians on the adjacent roads. To incentivize students and staff to use different forms
of transportation, the school will develop a walk/bike leader program that recognizes and
rewards individuals using alternate transportation.
• With the support of the MAA, ACDS will offer a fleet of bicycles for
faculty use during the day. Invariably, faculty need to go into town on school business.
To reduce vehicle trips. the school will provide a fleet of bicycles for this purpose. The
bicycles will also be available to faculty who are willing to commit to their daily
commute on two wheels.
• The school will utilize the existing resources and programs that the
City has in place to better educate faculty about transportation options and to
encourage them to participate in the alternatives. The school is already a member of
the City's Transportation Options Program and is aware of the benefits that this program
offers. Through the grants awarded by this program, the school can incentivize faculty to
carpool, and it can develop meaningful rewards for the walk/bike leaders. Additionally.
through the City's CommuterConnect software and the network of TOP, the school's
faculty will have an opportunity to coordinate with other commuters who are on a similar
schedule. Aspen School District, or are proximate to the proposed campus, the Aspen
Meadows staff. These outreach programs allow the school to leverage the work of the
City to implement more efficient ways to bring faculty to campus.
The other important part of the school's mitigation plan is to proactively communicate with our
families about transport expectations and to establish clear lines of communication with the
neighbors to inform and respond to them.
• The eastern portion of the Music tent lot will be utilized for faculty and parent
parking. Parking in this lot will be monitored by a permit system and the school will
emphasize to all families that there is no on -street parking. In advance of September
2012, the school will collect vehicle data from all families and issue stickers to be affixed
to all school vehicles using the lot. This system will enable us to manage parking in the
lot and also to respond to any neighbor comments about vehicles using the adjacent
streets for parking. The total capacity of the lot is about 100 vehicles. As illustrated in the
"Vehicle Trip to Castle Creek Campus During Peak Hours" chart, the school currently
requires about 40 parking spaces during normal school hours from 8:10 AM— 3:OOPM.
We expect this need to drop based on this mitigation plan, but we also do need some
flexibility for class events and performances. Regardless, the lot has excess capacity for
the school's daily needs, and the permit system will allow us to monitor the situation as
needed.
• The school will actively manage and monitor the morning drop-off
and afternoon pick-up so that all activity occurs within the Gillespie parking lots.
The school clearly understands the concerns of the neighbors regarding parking on the
streets and the disruption caused by the coming and going of the students. To supervise
this situation, the school will have personnel directing traffic through the circulation
corridor and the parking lots, as well as monitoring parking on the adjacent streets. The
school will also be restricting access to the Paepcke parking lot behind the Music Tent.
While this lot will remain available to all employees and patrons of the Aspen Institute,
no ACDS parents will be driving to this area. Faculty will only be allowed to drop off
classroom supplies. Service and delivery vehicles will have access to perform their
required tasks. Otherwise, all ACDS traffic will be restricted to the Gillespie lot.
• The school will actively manage the parking in the Gillespie lot to
incentivize car-pooling to campus. As noted previously, there are about 100 spaces in
the lot. The school has committed to restricting up to 15 spots for the Aspen Institute. Of
the remaining spots, the school will sign a dozen for HOV parking. By allocating specific
parking to faculty and families who carpool, the school will be encouraging this form of
transportation.
• The school has a few all -school events during the year that will bring
large numbers of vehicles to the campus. All such events will be noticed to the
surrounding neighborhood in advance, so they can be prepared and offer their
feedback. Additionally, the school will commit to staging its outdoor education
departures and arrivals from an off -site location. The nature of these trips requires a lot of
gear as well as parent involvement, so we will identify a satellite location to reduce the
congestion on these days.
• The school will work with RFTA and the City Transportation
Department to identify an alternate route for the cross-town shuttle. As the existing
circulation pattern takes the bus through the entire parking lot and through Country Day's
intended bower School area, we would recommend that the route be adjusted to outside
of the parking area. The school recommends that the cross-town shuttle stop be located
on Gillespie at the end of the walking path that splits the parking lot. To facilitate this
change, the school will remove the signs that designate the existing shuttle location in the
lot and change the current "Hotel Shuttle" signage that is on Gillespie. The school will
properly identify the Gillespie location with "Cross Town Shuttle" signage. All signage
will be restored at the end of the 2012-13 school year.
• The school will work with the City Transportation and Engineering
Departments to locate signage identifying the area as a "Schoollone:'In the various
neighborhood gatherings facilitated by the MAA and ACDS, neighbor feedback focused
on the speed of vehicles traveling through the West End. To address this concern while
also focusing on the safety of students, ACDS would propose some signage on Gillespie
and the appropriate numbered streets to inform motorists that they are entering a school
zone. As recommended traffic patterns through the neighborhood are better identified, the
appropriate sign locations can be confirmed.
• The school will coordinate all set-up and dismantling of the campus
with the City and surrounding neighborhood. As noted, the school intends to compile
a communication list of all adjacent property owners, so that they can be notified of any
upcoming school events that would impact the neighborhood. This system will also be
utilized to inform them of the logistics of creating the campus. Similarly, the school will
keep the City informed of its construction plans. It has recently come to our attention that
the Gillespie lots were used for staging of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge last year. With
this event now landing in town for two days during the anticipated move -in time in
August, the school will need to coordinate with the City Special Events department.
While both activities can surely be accommodated in this area, clear communication and
close coordination will be critical. The school has already begun the dialogue with the
necessary City staff.
In summary, the school will measure the success of its mitigation plan by:
• Increasing down valley consistent bus ridership by 30% from 35 riders to 45 riders and
doubling the number of consistent up valley riders from 9 to 18.
• Doubling the number of faculty who carpool to campus from 7 to 14, by
funding an additional faculty vehicle.
• Reducing the number of AM and PM car trips to the Meadows campus
by 40% from the 2011 average of 130 to an average of 78 or fewer at the Meadows.
• Documenting all school vehicles on a master list and providing a school
sticker to all of these vehicles to better track and enforce parking rules and specifically
designate and monitor HOV parking spaces
• Securing the necessary signage to identify a "School Zone" on the
adjacent streets.
Aspen Country Day School looks forward to implementing this plan to reduce the impact of its
program on the West End neighbors. The school is excited about this possibility, and it welcomes
the feedback of the adjacent homeowners and of City Council. The school is confident that this
experience can be positive and successful for students and neighbors alike.

RE: Aspen Country Day School
Temporary Use Permit
Winter 20122013
Honorable Mayor- and City Council:
It is our understanding that the Aspen Country Day School has applied for a Temporary Use Permit to relocate their
school from Castle Creek to the Aspen Music Festival and Aspen Institute grounds on Gillespie in the West End.
We have attended a neighborhood meeting to review the proposal and give feedback to MAA and Aspen Country
Day School staff.
The primary focus of our concern is traffic While we are not adverse to the temporary relocation of the school and
are willing to bear some impacts to make this possible, we believe the most overriding concern is the potential for
significant increases in traffic in this residential neighborhood
As you are undoubtedly aware, the West End is significantly impacted by the traffic impacts of all of the non-profit
uses but most especially the summer concerts at the Music Tent Because of the significant and detrimental impacts
of traffic and parking in the summer, the full-time residents of the West End treasure the winter months when these
impacts are more in keeping with this residential neighborhood.
Traffic impacts on the West End also exist from "commuter cut -through" traffic avoiding the traffic jams on Main
Street as well as significant commercial traffic generated by the Aspen Meadows, Aspen Center for Physics' Winter
Program and other various residential construction projects all during the winter months Certain representations
were made by the Aspen Meadows when their facilities were expanded and rebuilt that their designated access
would be Seventh Street out to Main Street. Unfortunately, this has not been borne out by experience and we often
see commercial vehicles operated by the Aspen Meadows and by their other commercial vendors accessing the
property through other West End Streets and their vans accessing town via North Street to Lake Avenue at all hours,
not just during high traffic times on Main Street.
As a result of the impacts we have borne for so many years, we are at a minimum skeptical of any traffic mitigation
plans that are put forward for winter use as we have experienced little effort on the part of the non -profits to truly
mitigate their summer traffic impacts. In the literature provided at the neighborhood meetings, the Aspen Country
Day School is representing that they can reduce the traffic from 163 student/staff households to 70 cars per day,
potentially 280 car trips per day, (presumably these cars would access the site in both the mornings and afternoons
excluding any staff that may be at the school all day). We would request that the City institute some measures to
monitor the traffic counts both before and during the relocation so that City staff can work closely with the school to
maintain and monitor the levels of traffic represented in as part of their approval process. We are concerned that the
traffic could easily increase to higher levels that could represent upwards of 650 additional car trips per day through
the neighborhood. It will be unfortunate, if once approval is granted, the neighbors have little recourse if the traffic
rises to even heavier levels than what has been represented.
The City must also undertake more significant steps to enforce residential speed limits and stop signs that have
become largely optional to most of the traffic driving through the West End
So in conclusion, we would like to reiterate our desire to see traffic mitigation and enforcement undertaken that is
both reasonable and verifiable so that the neighborhood will have avenues of recourse if representations result in
unbearable and unacceptable traffic impacts
Sincerely, /f

Subject:
Aspen Country Day Temporary Use
Jennifer and Council,
We live at the corner of 5`h and Gillespie Street, directly across Gillespie from the entrance to the Music School parking
lot. We do not object to the Temporary Use approval requested for Aspen Country Day, so long as the approval includes
the commitments included in the School's application, and the city staff recommendations from the various city
departments.
The Cross Town Shuttle is very important to us and we request that the Council approve the temporary rerouting of the
Shuttle to travel along Gillespie Street, instead of through the Music parking lot, for the duration of the temporary use
permit, and then go back to the normal route through the parking lot when the School moves to its permanent location.
We realize that this permit will have some negative impacts on our neighborhood, such as traffic, but we also see the
benefits to Country Day students and the Music School to have the Castle Creek Road campus free of students for the
first year of construction. In the spirit of cooperation, we ask Council to use this application as an opportunity to
address two issues with the Music Festival operation that pose potential hazards to pedestrians in our neighborhood on
days of Festival concerts: 1. The lack of traffic control after concerts at the exit from the Music parking lot; and 2. The
lack of enforcement by the City of illegal parking in the surrounding neighborhood, particularly illegal parking at the
corners which blocks visibility. The city staff has recommended that Country Day employee traffic control people at the
drive exit at the beginning and end of the school day, and we think this should be standard procedure for the Music
Festival on concert days. The lack of parking control seems to be caused by a lack of city parking personnel on duty
during concert hours ( often evenings and Sunday), which I'm sure could be cured with a financial contribution by the
Music Festival to the city. With the hundreds of cars and pedestrians using the West End streets during the busy concert
times, we believe it is important to take immediate action, beginning this summer, to reduce the potential for auto -
pedestrian conflict.
Thank you for your consideration, and thank you to Carolyn Hines at Country Day for her outreach to the neighbors prior
to tonight's hearing and the school's commitment to keep us informed as this moves forward.

Dear Mayor Ireland and City Council:
The purpose of this letter is to state my concerns with regard to the ACIDS using the Aspen Meadows as
their campus. For the record, I am the Zoning officer for the City and have recused myself from the
review of this application in order to comment as a citizen of who lives on Third Street.
There will be an increase in traffic in our neighborhood in order to accommodate the school.
Please consider an even distribution of the cars and busses d along Third, Fourth and Fifth Street.
One sheet should not be subject to more or less than the others.
The speed limit is already too high in our residential neighborhood. It is the same speed as Main Street.
Noted, City Council is unlikely to change the speed limit in conjunction with a Temporary Use Permit.
However, any measure to reduce speed would be greatly appreciated. Below, please find a list of
measures which may help address speed in the neighborhood:
a) Additional signage with respect to the presence of children
b) Additional police patrol in the neighborhood
c) Temporary speed bump at the intersection of North and Third Street
d) A large school zone complete with reduced speed in a 3 or 4 block radius of the School
Other than the increase in traffic and the rate of speed at which it travels; I support the proposed
temporary location of ACDS.
Regards,
Claude Salter

RE: Aspen Country Day School Temporary Use Permit (Aspen Meadows
campus) — Resolution: 4 , Series 2012
APPLICANT /OWNER:
Aspen Institute, Aspen Music
Festival and School (owners),
and Aspen Country Day School
REPRESENTATIVE:
Jim Curtis
LOCATION:
Aspen Meadows campus, home
of the Aspen Institute, the
Aspen Music Festival and
School, and the Aspen Center
for Physics, 1000 N Third
Street and 960 N. Third Street.
CURRENT ZONING & USE
The area in question is located
in the Academic zone district
with a Specially Planned Area
overlay (A/SPA).
PROPOSED LAND USE:
Temporary Use Permit to
operate school for the
2012/2013 calendar year.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Temporary Use Permit.
SUMMARY:
The Applicant requests a Temporary Use Permit for the
temporary operation of the Aspen Country Day School for the
2012/2013 calendar year on the Aspen Meadows campus.
The Benedict MusicTent, part of the temporary school proposal.
REQUEST OF COUNCIL: City Council is asked to grant a Temporary Use Permit, pursuant
to Land Use Code chapter 26.450, Temporary and Seasonal Uses, for Aspen Country Day
• School (ACDS) to operate their campus facility on the Aspen Meadows campus for the
2012/2013 calendar year.
ACDS Temporary Use Permit
Page I of 6
P134
BACKGROUND: The Aspen Country Day School currently operates on the Aspen Music
Festival and School's (AMFS) Castle Creek campus. Currently, the school serves approximately
138 families, educates approximately 207 students from pre -kindergarten to eighth grade, and
employs 52 teachers and staff. The Castle Creek campus is being redeveloped and campus
officials have determined that relocating ACDS for one year will create the least amount of
impact with regard to the redevelopment and school operations. As a result of this determination
ACDS has been working with the AMFS, the Aspen Institute, and the Aspen Center for Physics
to relocate the school onto the Aspen Meadows campus.
Physical location:
The temporary campus is proposed to be located on Lots 2 and 1-B, which are owned by AMFS
and The Aspen Institute. The proposed site plan includes use of the existing facilities such as the
Boettcher building, Harris Hall and the Benedict Music Tent as well as installation of a tent for
gym use and modular buildings for school rooms (to be located on existing parking lots).

Transportation Management:
ACDS has submitted a traffic mitigation plan for the nine month school year. The city's
engineering and transportation departments have reviewed the plan (Exhibit D) and provided
comments to the applicant. Highlights of the plan include:
• To encourage bus ridership for the 2012/2013 calendar year, the school will provide its
bus service at no charge to students.
• The school is committing to providing an additional bus route.
• The school will purchase an additional commuter vehicle to increase staff ridership.
• An on campus fleet of bicycles will be provided at the temporary campus to reduce
vehicle trips during the day.
• Parking in the eastern portion of the Gillespie Street facing parking lot will be monitored
by a permit system.
• Morning drop off and afternoon pick-up will be monitored.
• All school events, such as graduation, will be noticed in advance to neighbors.
• The cross town shuttle route will be modified to minimize any potential conflicts.
• School zone signage will be installed in the neighborhood for the school year.
Operations:
The school year begins after Labor Day and ends Memorial Day. However, the school needs to
set up the temporary campus in August of 2012 and take it down in June 2013. The school hours
are 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. with typical holiday breaks. ACDS will not conduct after -school
programs during the 2012-2013 school year but will have intermittent school sponsored special
events throughout the school year.
Public access to the site will be maintained via 3rd Street for foot and auto traffic to the Rio
Grande Trail, as currently exists. The 4th Street walkway will be open to the Tent and then
signage will direct people to take the back path (west side of Tent) to continue to Paepcke
Auditorium or the Meadows.
There are no plans to have special events (non ACDS related) events during the school year on
the Aspen Music Festival and School's lot during the school year; however, the applicant is
willing to coordinate the use of the east side of the Gillespie street facing parking lot with city
representatives during the USA Pro Challenge in August of 2012.
DISCUSSION:
The Applicant is requesting a Temporary Use Permit for the operation of a school during the
2012/2013 calendar year. The request is for a six month Temporary Use Permit to start no earlier
• than August 1 2012 (set-up); however, the Applicant is also requesting one automatic extension
of five months to cover the entire school year and end on June 30, 2013 (break -down).
ACDS Temporary Use Permit
Page 3 of 6
P136 i •
The use of the campus to accommodate Aspen Country Day is consistent with the current
Academic zoning of the Aspen Meadows campus. The operation of the school is for one school
year. A traffic management plan has been submitted to minimize the impact of the temporary use
on the neighborhood.
REFERRAL AGENCY COMMENTS:
Staff has received limited comments from referral departments that are incorporated into the
draft resolution.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends approval of a Temporary Use Permit for the
Aspen Country Day School. Staff finds that this one-time Temporary Use Permit is consistent
with the permitted uses in the Academic zone district the temporary location will safely
accommodate the school's students during reconstruction of the their Castle Creek campus.
Although there will be some impacts to the neighbors, ACDS has proactively contacted
neighbors and is providing a Transportation Mitigation plan that will limit the school's impacts.
The school is proposed for only one school year.
PROPOSED MOTION: "I move to approve Resolution No. ,Series of 2012, approving the
request for a six month Temporary Use Permit with an automat c, consecutive extension of five
months for the purpose of operating Aspen Country Day School on the Aspen Meadows campus
from August 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013."

EXHIBIT A
26.450.030 CRITERIA APPLICABLE TO ALL TEMPORARY USES. •
Section 26.450.030 of the City Land Use Code provides that the City Council shall consider the
following criteria, as applicable, when reviewing development applications for a temporary use:
A. The location, size, design, operating characteristics, and visual impacts of the proposed
use.
The proposed temporary use is for the operation of Aspen Country Day School to operate
on the Aspen Meadows campus for the 2012/2013 school year. The school will operate
out of existing buildings and some temporary structures for the school year. The Aspen
Meadows campus is zoned Academic, which permits the use of a school. The Aspen
Meadows campus is currently used for lectures, special events, and academic uses. The
operation is consistent with the Aspen Meadows operation and zoning. Staff finds this
criterion to be met.
B. The compatibility of the proposed temporary use with the character, density and use of
structures and uses in the immediate vicinity.
The proposed temporary school is compatible with the existing uses on the Aspen
Meadows campus. Both existing buildings and some temporary buildings are proposed to
house the school on the campus. Staff finds this criterion to be met.
C. The impacts of the proposed temporary use on pedestrian and vehicular traffic and
traffic patterns, municipal services, noise levels, and neighborhood character.
A traffic mitigation plan has been submitted by the Applicant which has been reviewed
and is supported by both the Engineering Department and Transportation Department.
Staff finds this criterion to be met.
D. The duration of the proposed temporary use and whether a temporary use has
previously been approved for the structure, parcel, property or location as proposed in
the application.
The temporary use is proposed to begin in August of 2012 and end in June of 2013. The
request is for a six month approval (to start in August 1, 2012) with one extension of five
months to end by June 30, 2013 as permitted by the Land Use Code. The Applicant has
not been approved previously for a temporary use permit. Staff finds this criterion to be
met.
E. The purposes and intent of the zone district in which the temporary use is proposed
The area that is being proposed for the school use is zoned Academic (A). Permitted uses
in the Academic zone include a private school. The operation of a school is consistent
with the purpose of the academic zone district. Staff finds this criterion to be met.
F. The relation of the temporary use to conditions and character changes which may have
occurred in the area and zone district in which the use is proposed.
The Aspen Meadows campus is an academic use within the City of Aspen containing the
Aspen Institute, the Aspen Music Festival and School and the Aspen Center for Physics.
Use of part of the campus temporarily for Aspen Country Day School is consistent with
other uses occurring on the campus. Staff finds this criterion to be met. •
• P141
G. How the proposed temporary use will enhance or diminish the general public health,
safety or welfare.
i With an adequate traffic mitigation and operation plan, the school can safely operate on
the Aspen Meadows campus and within the surrounding neighborhood. Staff finds this
criterion to be met.

Engineering Department DRC Comments
These comments are not intended to be exclusive, but an initial response to the project
packet submitted for purpose of the DRC meeting.
Traffic:
Stop Sign Request at 5t' and Gillespie: The Engineering dept does not support the
additional stop sign request. A stop sign at this location is not warranted. Vehicle
pedestrian conflicts at this intersection occur during Music School Events and
during the beginning and end of the school day. As a result the engineering dept is
recommending that Aspen Country Day School control this intersection with
certified traffic control personnel instead of a stop sign.
A stop sign is one of our most valuable and effective control devices when used at
the right place and under the right conditions. It is intended to help drivers and
pedestrians at an intersection decide who has the right of way.
Drivers tend to ignore unwarranted traffic controls or \obstacles that in their view
are unnecessary. If they are frequently required to stop for STOP signs and rarely
see any traffic on the opposing street, they may become impatient and tend to
disregard STOP signs that have no obvious need.
Traffic Control at 3`d and Gillespie: The school intends to restrict traffic from
continuing northbound on 3`d Street. The engineering dept will require certified
traffic control personnel to manage this.
School Zone Signage: The Engineering Dept is recommending the installation (and
removal after the end of the school year) of School Zone Signs. This sign plan must
be developed by a professional engineer and must be approved through the ROW
permit process.
Landscape improvements on Gillespie: Any improvements proposed in the ROW
will need approval first through a ROW permit process.
Construction Management — A construction management plan must be submitted in
conjunction with the building permit application. The plan must include a planned
sequence of construction that minimizes construction_ impacts to the public. The
plan shall describe mitigation for: parking, staging/encroachments, truck traffic,
noise, dust, and erosion/sediment pollution

Aspen Music Festival & School - - Temporary Use Permit Application
Transportation Department DRC Comments:
The applicant, in conjunction with the Aspen Country Day School, proposes to temporarily relocate the
Aspen Country Day School operations from the Castle Creek Road campus to the Aspen Meadows
properties for the 2012-2013 school year to facilitate the redevelopment of the Castle Creek Road
facility. The project proposes the relocation of approximately 207 Aspen Country Day School students,
and 52 staff to the Meadows campus. The Aspen Country Day School, at the request of Transportation
staff, has developed a Traffic, Parking, Circulation and Bus Mitigation Plan.
The Transportation Department Staff offers the following comments on the application:
REGULATORY COMMENTS:
1. None.
COURTESY COMMENTS:
1. The applicant proposes the re-routing of the Cross Town Shuttle through the Gillespie Street
(Music Festival) parking lot through the duration of the 2012-2013 school year. Transportation
staff would prefer to eliminate the parking lot from portion of the route completely during this
period to avoid any conflict with students. Transportation would propose that the Cross Town
Shuttle instead travel on Gillespie Street without turning into the Music Festival parking lot.
Staff requests that the applicant facilitate this rerouting by removing/covering existing bus stop
• signage in the parking lot. Staff also requests that the applicant replace current hotel shuttle
signage on Gillespie Street with Cross Town Shuttle bus stop signage. Finally, staff requests that
the applicant restore all original signage at the end of the 2012-2013 school year.
The applicant proposes the use of 7th Street as an outbound route for its school bus routes.
Transportation staff requires an alternate outbound route as 7th Street is designated as a no
right turn 3-5pm area on weekdays during peak seasons.
Transportation staff appreciates the thorough trip reduction plan, especially efforts towards
extending bus service by adding a fourth route and making bus service free. Staff offers a few
minor suggestions to strengthen the plan:
• The applicant, on page 4 discusses the investigation of purchasing a staff carpool vehicle.
Staff would like the purchase of this vehicle to be a commitment. This seems to be the
intent, but staff would like the language to reflect the purchase.
• Staff would like to see an emphasis on parking management, particularly the use of HOV-
only parking as a carpool incentive for staff.
• Staff would like to retain the option of using portions of the Gillespie Street parking lot for
staging of vehicles/buses during the USA Pro Cycling Challenge in August of 2012.
• Staff suggests the development of school pool and walk/bike leader programs. The City's
CommuterConnect software can facilitate these types of programs.
• Staff suggests the addition of an incentive program for staff who use alternative
transportation.

Staff would like to see Aspen Country Day School actively participating in TOP.
Collaboration with nearby TOP members such as Aspen Meadows and with TOP members
with similar challenges such as the Aspen School District could prove very effective.

From: Jannette Whitcomb, Environmental Health Department
Date: December 19, 2011
Re: Aspen Music Festival & School - - Temporary Use Permit Application
The City of Aspen's Environmental Health Department has reviewed the referenced Temporary
Use Permit Application and has the following comments.
AIR QUALITY:
The applicant, in conjunction with the Aspen Country Day School, proposes to temporarily
relocate the Aspen Country Day School operations from the Castle Creek Road campus to the
Aspen Meadows properties for the 2012-2013 school year to facilitate the redevelopment of the
Castle Creek Road facility. The project proposes the relocation of approximately 207 Aspen
Country Day School students, and 52 staff to the Meadows campus.
The Aspen Country Day School currently buses around 50 % of the students at a cost to the
families of $150 per month. The faculty currently has access to one shuttle for getting to and
• from school. Moving the school into the West End of Aspen, without additional trip reduction
measures, would have significant impact on traffic and air quality, specifically PM-10 pollution.
In a concentrated effort to reduce trips into Aspen, the Aspen Country Day School plans to
increase bus ridership by adding a fourth express route from down valley, waiving the monthly
fee for the 2012-2013 school year, and adding an additional faculty shuttle.
Comments:
• Staff recommends that the applicant's proposed trip reduction plan, with the addition of
the Aspen Transportation Department's suggestions, be adopted. This plan provides the
framework to reduce vehicle trips for the school beyond their current rate and protect
Aspen's air quality. We also recommend that they continue on this path in future years.
• Staff reminds the applicant of the 5 minute idling ordinance for the City of Aspen (Section
13.08.110) not only for compliance but to reduce potential impacts caused by bus staging.
The Aspen Country Day School has available two buses that do not require long warm-up
periods, including a gas powered bus and a diesel powered bus with a plug-in block
heater. Staff recommends the applicant prioritize for in -town startup and use the bus
that requires the least idle warm-up and is the quietest to run.

CONSUMER PROTECTION:
•
Food Protection comments:
The Aspen Country Day School will continue to provide a hot lunch to its students and faculty. The •
facility is required to prepare foods in a licensed kitchen, per state Statute. The applicant proposes

• Facility shall submit a plan review of the mobile kitchen and temporary cafeteria for review
and license approval to CJ Oliver, Aspen Environmental Health Department. He can be
reached at 970-920-5008 for more information.

2012-2013 school year. They propose to use two rooms in Boettcher Building, located next to the
Aspen Music Tent parking lot. The facility is required to obtain a child care license, per state
Statute.
• Facility shall submit a child care plan review for review and license approval to Janette
Whitcomb, Aspen Environmental Health Department. She can be reached at 970-920-5069
School comments:
The Aspen Country Day School will conduct its 1-8 classes in modular units for the 2012-2013
school season. The modular units and other facilities used on the Aspen Music School campus for
school activities are required to meet the State Board of Health's Rules and Regulations
Governing Schools in the State of Colorado.
• Facility shall contact CJ Oliver, Aspen Environmental Health Department to schedule a

' 11, APPLICATION SUMMARY
The Aspen Music festival & School (AMFS) and Aspen Country Day School
(ACDS) propose to temporarily relocate the ACDS school to the Aspen Meadows properties
for the 2012-2013 school year, early September, 2012 — late May, 2013 with set-up in
August and take -down in June. The relocation is to facilitate the redevelopment of the AMFS
Castle Creek Campus and to ensure the safety of the ACDS students during the
redevelopment. The initial phase of the Castle Creek redevelopment is scheduled to start in
September, 2012, and will focus on upgrading utilities to the campus which will impact the
main road to the campus; building two new bridges across Castle Creek; dredging and
revitalizing the ponds located on the central campus; constructing a new building in the
lower parking area; building two rehearsal halls, and a support building all for joint AMFS &
ACDS use. The initial phase of work will impact the total campus and therefore it was
decided the safest, most efficient way to proceed was to temporarily relocate the school for
one school year. Subsequent redevelopment phases will focus on the construction of
additional individual buildings and will have less impact to the overall campus and ACDS
operations.
The temporary relocation is the best option to speed the redevelopment of the Castle
Creek Campus and to ensure the safety of the ACDS students. It will place a temporary
burden on all parties, but long-term, a redeveloped Castle Creek Campus will ensure the
continued presence of these two important institutions in the community.
Aspen Country Dav School 0
ACDS is a private, independent school which has shared the Castle Creek Campus
with AMFS since 1969. ACDS consists of pre-K, K and grades 1-8. ACDS serves
approximately 138 families and teaches approximately 207 students (ages 2 '/2 for pre-K to
ages 14 for 81h grade). ACDS does not include a high school program so there are no student
drivers. The school employs 52 teachers and staff, some of whom have students in the
school.
The school year begins after Labor Day and ends at Memorial Day. School hours are
8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The school is closed at Thanksgiving, the last two weeks of
December, President's Day and in March for Spring Break. For the 2012 — 2013 school year
ACDS will forego having any after -school programs.
As part of the relocation, ACDS will implement an aggressive "Traffic, Parking,
Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan" which is given in Exhibit 1. The plan has been
developed working closely with the City's Transportation Department, The Aspen Institute
and Aspen Center for Physics, and the West End neighbors. The applicant is very sensitive to
these issues and has spent time outreaching to the neighborhood to address these issues.

The relocation to the Aspen Meadows will generally entail the following and is
illustrated in the Exhibit Maps attached.
AMFS Gillespie Street Parking Lot. Modular classrooms will be set-up in the
west portion of the parking lot as shown on the Exhibit Maps and removed in
June 2013 prior to the AMFS summer season. The east portion of the parking lot
will be used for ACIDS parking and will be monitored as outlined in the "Traffic,
Parking, Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan."
2. Boettcher Building. Pre-K, K-1, and ACDS offices will be housed in this
building.
3. Harris Hall. The lobby will be used as a lunchroom and a modular kitchen will
be set-up in the service area as shown. The auditorium will be used for school
assemblies and music classes.
4. Benedict Music Tent. The heated areas of the tent will be used for restrooms,
lockers and storage, and co -curricular classes.
5. Paepcke Parking Lot. Modular classrooms will be set-up in the south portion of
the parking lot. The north portion of the lot will be used for Aspen Institute
parking.
6. Play areas, temporary gym, restroom facilities are shown on the Exhibit Maps.
7. Food Service. A modular kitchen will be set-up in the Harris Hall service area
and food service will be in the Harris Hall lobby. The modular kitchen will be
self-contained.
8. Restroom Facilities. Existing restroom facilities will be used as much as
possible. Modular restrooms will be supplemental and be self-contained.
Please note that neither The Aspen Center for Physics property nor The
Aspen Institute Paepcke Building are proposed to be used for the relocation.

Key Points
1. The -Traffic, Parking, Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan" is given in
Exhibit 1. The applicant is very sensitive to these issues and has worked
closely with the City's Transportation Department, The Aspen Institute and
Aspen Center for Physics, and West End neighbors to prepare this plan.
2. Visual Impact. The modular units in the AMFS Gillespie parking lot will be
visible mainly from Gillespie Street. Applicant is open to additional
landscaping along the street for screening, but the Gillespie Street R.O.W. is
owned by the City of Aspen. Applicant will meet with the Aspen Parks &
Engineering Depts. to discuss Gillespie Street landscaping prior to the City
Council meeting. A sketch of "typical" modular classroom units is given in
the Exhibit Maps.
1. Public Access to Meadows Walking Paths. All paths will remain open and
plowed for public use similar to current use. New signage will indicate public
access & temporary fencing will delineate play areas for students. North Third
Street will remain open and plowed similar to current use.
2. Snow Plowing. Most snow plowing will occur in the morning before school
starts, but will occur as late & as quickly as possible before school opens.
When possible, snow removal will be done during mid -day or after school •
hours. Snow plowing equipment will be as quiet as possible without heavy
diesel equipment or beepers.
3. Winter Events at Harris Hall & Paepcke Auditorium. AMFS will not schedule
events in Harris Hall during the winter 2012 - 2013. Paepcke Auditorium
events, mainly in the evening, will be scheduled as normal, and there will be
parking on the north half of the Paepcke parking lot, plus parking in the east
bay of the Gillespie parking lot.
4. Emergency Access. The turning radius in the Paepcke parking lot as well as the
circulation route in the Gillespie parking lot have been designed to
accommodate fire & emergency access.
Temporary Use Permit Request
The applicant is requesting a Temporary Use Permit for the 9 month school year,
September/2012 - May/2013. In accordance with Code Section 26.450.020, applicant
requests an initial Temporary Use Permit for 180 days (Sept. - Feb.) and an extension for 90
days (March - May). Set-up will occur in August/2012 & takedown will occur in June/2013.

III COMMON DEVELM PMENT Ci T N 1 0 REVIEW I IZOCEUI RES
The applicant has provided the applicable application material as set forth under Code
Section 26.304.030(B) and the Pre -Application Conference Summary given in Exhibit 7.
IV. TEMPORARY USE PERMIT, CODE SECTION 26.450.030
below:
Fhe criteria for Temporary Use Permit under Code Section 26.4-50.030 is addressed
A The location, size, design, operating characteristics, and visital impacts of the
proposed use.
See Application Summary for a description of the proposed Temporary Use. The
"Traffic, Parking, Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan" is given in Exhibit 1 and
the Exhibit Maps.
B. The compatibility of the proposed temporary use with the character, density and use
of structures and uses in the immediate vicinity.
Applicant feels the proposed Temporary Use is compatible with the neighborhood
on a short-term basis. Applicant understands there will be neighborhood impacts,
. and AMFS and ACDS will work with the neighbors to try to reduce the impacts as
realistically feasible. AMFS and ACIDS feel the temporary relocation is the best
option to speed the redevelopment of the Castle Creek Campus and to ensure the
safety of the ACIDS students.
C. The impacts of the proposed temporary use on pedestrian and vehicular traffic and
traffic patterns, municipal services, noise levels, and neighborhDbdTkanttcter.
The "Traffic, Parking, Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan" is given in Exhibit 1
and the Exhibit Maps. Municipal services for water, sewer, electric, etc. will have
minimal impact as the relocation is planned to be as self-contained as possible.
Noise impact will mainly be morning snow plowing and this is addressed in the
Application Summary.
D. The duration of the proposed temporary use and whether a temporary use has
previously been approved for the structure, parcel, property or location as proposed
in the application.
The Temporary Use is proposed for the 2012 — 2013 school year, September, 2012
— May, 2013. Temporary uses have been approved on the subject properties in the
past, but applicant ismot awareAf a tftporary school relocation beingdoije on the
• properties.

E. The purposes and intent of the zone district in which the temporary use is proposed.
Lot I -B (Aspen Institute parcel) and Lot 2 (AMFS parcel) are zoned Academic — •
Specially Planned Area (SPA) and have a history of educational and cultural uses.
I he relation of the temporary use to conditions and character changes that may
have occurred in the area and zone district in which the use is proposed.
The subject properties are zoned Academic -SPA and have a history of educational
and cultural uses. The Aspen Meadows properties have grown and upgraded over
time as well as the surrounding West End neighborhood; however, the overall
physical character of the area has remained relatively consistent. The Temporary
Use on a short-term basis will not change the long-term physical character of the
neighborhood.
G. How the proposed Temporary Use will enhance or diminish the general public
health, safety or welfare.
Applicant understands there will be short-term impacts to the neighborhood, and
AMFS and ACDS will work with the neighbors to try to reduce the impacts as
realistically feasible. The AMFS and ACDS feel the temporary relocation is the best
option to speed the redevelopment of the Castle Creek Campus and to ensure the
safety of the ACDS students. It will place a temporary burden on all parties, but
over the long-term, a redeveloped Castle Creek Campus will insure the continued •
presence of these two important institutions in the Community.

Temporary Use
DATE: 11 /3/201 1
DESCRIPTION: The Aspen Institute, in conjunction with the Aspen Music Festival and School and the
Aspen Center for Physics, is considering temporarily permitting Aspen Country Day to
house their school operations on the Institute's campus during redevelopment of the school's
existing facility and the Institute's off season. Currently the school serves approximately 206
students and 120 families.
To operate the school campus, temporary trailers are being proposed in the parking lot along
Gillespie and in a rear parking lot, a temporary gym is being proposed as well as use of the
existing buildings on the site. Aspen Country Day intends to begin the school season in
September of 2012 ending in May of 2013. Setting up of the temporary facilities is proposed
in August with breakdown in May.
The operation of the school will include the transport of students and faculty to and from the
campus. As traffic mitigation has been raised in other institute applications, statf
recommends that the application discuss traffic management and all of the TDM measures
the institute implements.
Temporary uses may be granted for up to 180 days, with the ability to request for one
extension. As the set up, operation, and breakdown of the school operation exceeds the 180
01 days (approximately 10 months), staff recommends that the applicant request an extension
as part of the temporary use application. Additionally, the applicant may want to request the
temporary use to occur in either the 2012/2013 or the 2013/2014 school year depending on
the school's construction timeframe.

RE: Supplemental Addendum
Temporary Use Permit Application, Dated 12/2/11
Aspen Country Day School Temporary Relocation
Coming from the City Staff review meeting on December 12, there are a
few key items the Applicant wishes to address as outlined below:
1. "Traffic. Parkina. Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan". Exhibit 1 of the
Application. The Mitigation Plan has been refined based on the comments from
City Staff. The updated plan is attached. Three changes are highlighted as
discussed at the December 12 meeting and are shown on updated drawing TUP-4
attached.
a. The proposed 4 Way Stop Signs at Gillespie and 5th have been
eliminated based on the comments from the City Engineer.
Applicant will continue to work with the City Engineer to discuss
safety improvements for this intersection.
b. The Cross -Town Shuttle turnaround & stop has been revised based
on the comments from the City Transportation Planner. The shuttle
route and stop is now proposed on Gillespie Street verses the AMFS
parking lot.
The School Zone Designation is still proposed by the Applicant and
was conceptually supported at the December 12 meeting. Applicant
will continue to work with the City Engineer on the specifics of a
School Zone Plan as part of Building Permit Review.
CityAspCommDevelSupplementalAddendum 1 of 2
•
2. Gillespie Street Landscaping: Applicant met with the Parks Department on
December 12 to discuss possible landscaping improvements within the Gillespie
Street R.O.W. The major concern is doing any landscaping improvements which
could possibility harm the root systems of the existing cottonwoods lining the
north side of the street. Therefore, applicant proposes the following improvements:
1. Landscaping the 3rd Street and 5th Street driveway entrances and the 4th Street
walkway entrance; 2. Clean-up the existing walkway path on the north side of
Gillespie Street most likely with a crusher fine path and railroad tie edger. Specific
plans for the above improvements will be submitted to the Parks and Engineering
Departments for a R.O.W. Permit after the City Council hearings. It is felt these
improvements will clean-up the appearance of Gillespie Street without harming
the root systems of the existing cottonwoods.
3. USA Pro Cog Challenge Race. Applicant will make the east side of the
ANTS parking lot available for race staging if requested by the City. If the
parking lot is used, the set-up in the east side of the lot will need to be closely
coordinated as Applicant will concurrently be setting -up in the west side of the lot.
• Please let us know if there are other specific items you would like us to
address before the January 9 h City Council meeting. Thank you and City Staff for
your assistance to date.

CityAspCommDevelSupplementalAddendum 2 of 2
• Exhibit 1
Updated 12/20/11
Traffic, Parking, Circulation & Buses Mitigation Plan
As Aspen Country Day School plans for a nine -month relocation to the Aspen Meadows, we have
focused on the traffic impacts on the Meadows campus and the adjacent neighborhood. We have
analyzed the demographic information of our current families, reviewed traffic numbers from
previous years, collected current traffic information, and evaluated our current resources to
develop a plan that will address this issue.
Our goals for this mitigation plan are:
. To reduce the impact of student, parent, and teacher traffic on the Aspen community in general,
and the West End neighborhood in particular
• To proactively communicate with our school community and consistently communicate with the
surrounding neighborhood, so we can be responsive to their concerns.
Background:
In 2006, MAA and ACDS retained Krager & Associates of Denver, CO to produce a traffic study
in conjunction with the development of a master plan for the Castle Creek campus. The study
confirmed that the peak traffic hours for the school are from 7:45-8:30AM and 2:45-3:15 PM
from Monday -Friday. They compiled data on actual "trips" to campus during these peak periods.
To balance this data, the school collected similar data on vehicle trips on November 3, 2011. The
chart below reflects both the 2006 data and 2011 data. Please note that the 2011 data was
• collected from 7:00 -8:45 AM and 2:30-3:30PM. The entry and exit numbers do not match due to
vehicles departing outside the data collection times. Many faculty depart after 3:30 as indicated
in the staff vehicle PM exit count. As expected, there are fewer PM parent vehicle trips because
more students ride the bus directly to after -school activities.

To provide a perspective on the traffic counts reported by Krager & Associates, the table below
shows the total enrollment of the school, the full-time equivalent enrollment of the school, total
enrollment from grades K-8, the total bus ridership, the total down valley bus riders (Carbondale
to Snowmass Village Intercept lot) identified as consistent or part-time riders and up valley riders
(Aspen, Highlands, Cemetery Lane) identified as consistent or part-time riders for the school
years 2006-7 to the present. For clarification, the full-time equivalent enrollment takes into
account the fact that PK students do not come five days a week. Additionally, PK students ride
the bus for free and are not included in the bus ridership numbers. Therefore, the base number of
students to compare bus ridership is the "Enrollment K-8."The school anticipates that the
enrollment numbers for the 2012-13 school year will mirror the present.

The school has also committed to a down valley faculty vehicle to encourage carpooling. When
the school was able to provide a 14-passenger van, six to 10 faculty typically rode in the van. Due
to safety considerations, we replaced the van with a Suburban for the 2010-11 school year, and it
is usually filled with 5-8 faculty. The table below reflects the total number of employees at the
school and their area of residence.

Mitigation Plan
As already noted, ACDS will focus on reducing the impact of student, parent, and teacher traffic
on the Aspen community in general, and the West End neighborhood in particular. The critical
parts of this effort are:
• The school will provide its bus service at no charge to the students for the 2012-13
school year. Currently, the school charges $150 per month per student to ride the bus
full-time. To encourage more ridership, we do provide a 50% sibling discount; half the -
monthly fee for students who select only AM or PM participation; as well as a flat $5.00
per ride charge for students using the service on a random basis. We believe that a free
service is the best incentive to motivate increased ridership on school buses. To provide a
context for the financial impact of this decision, the following chart reflects the school's
total transportation budget for the past three years, the current year as well as a financial
projection reflecting the total subsidy of a free bus service next year.

To accommodate this increased ridership, the school will commit to providing
additional bus routes. At this time, the school runs three bus routes — down valley
(Carbondale to AABC), Aspen, Highlands/Cemetery Lane. With the goal of
accommodating increased ridership, the school is planning to offer four routes next year.
The most effective reorganization will be to split the current down valley service into two
different routes to increase the total down valley bus capacity. The school intends to have
one bus serve Carbondale to Basalt with another bus serving Old Snowmass to AABC.
Based on the current demographics of where our students currently live, we believe that
this route change has the greatest potential impact. The chart below accounts for all of
our current students PK-8 and identifies where in the valley they access Highway 82. As
is reflected in the chart, the down valley bus could have 59 students, the mid valley bus
could have 61 students, and the two up valley routes would accommodate the remaining
84 students.

Based on our intent to use the existing circulation pattern through the Gillespie lots, we
plan to have all buses use Yd street each morning. The three non -Aspen buses will travel
north on Yd St. from Main St. to the campus. The Aspen in -town route will be determined
by actual bus ridership but will ultimately access the campus off of 3'd St. as well. In the
afternoon, our in -town route will leave the campus at the 51h St. exit and begin its route
through the West End, which will also be dictated by daily ridership. The three other
buses will leave from the 5`h St. exit and continue down 5`h Street to Main St.
• To further.reduce the number of car trips to campus, the school will also commit
resources to additional faculty transportation options. The school, as noted earlier,
• currently provides a Chevy Suburban to down valley faculty to utilize for car-pooling. It
is currently used at capacity most days, and we believe we would have additional riders
with a larger vehicle. To achieve this goal, the school will purchase a 14-passenger
vehicle, which will nearly double the down valley capacity. The additional vehicle with
this capacity for the down valley group will enable the Suburban to be committed to an
in -town car pool. With many faculty clustered in the east end of.town, Hunter Creek and
Smuggler area, the Suburban will reduce a good number of car trips by faculty.
• The in town location of the Meadows campus will also allow many
students and staff to either walk or bike to school. The proximity of the school will
motivate students and staff to seek alternative ways to get to campus each day. The
school will work with the City Transportation and Engineering departments to implement
signage that defines a "School Zone", which will create a safer environment for bikes and
pedestrians on the adjacent roads. To incentivize students and staff to use different forms
of transportation, the school will develop a walk/bike leader program that recognizes and
rewards individuals using alternate transportation.
• With the support of the MAA, ACDS will offer a fleet of bicycles for
faculty use during the day. Invariably, faculty need to go into town on school business.
To reduce vehicle trips, the school will provide a fleet of bicycles for this purpose. The
bicycles will also be available to faculty who are willing to commit to their daily
commute on two wheels.
• The school will utilize the existing resources and programs that the
City has in place to better educate faculty about transportation options and to
encourage them to participate in the alternatives. The school is already a member of
the City's Transportation Options Program and is aware of the benefits that this program
offers. Through the grants awarded by this program, the school can incentivize faculty to
carpool, and it can develop meaningful rewards for the walk/bike leaders. Additionally,
through the City's CommuterConnect software and the network of TOP, the school's
• faculty will have an opportunity to coordinate with other commuters who are on a similar
schedule, Aspen School District, or are proximate to the proposed campus, the Aspen
Meadows staff. These outreach programs allow the school to leverage the work of the
City to implement more efficient ways to bring faculty to campus.
The other important part of the school's mitigation plan is to proactively communicate with our
families about transport expectations and to establish clear lines of communication with the
neighbors to inform and respond to them.
• The eastern portion of the Music tent lot will be utilized for faculty and parent
parking. Parking in this lot will be monitored by a permit system and the school will
emphasize to all families that there is no on -street parking. In advance of September
2012, the school will collect vehicle data from all families and issue stickers to be affixed
to all school vehicles using the lot. This system will enable us to manage parking in the
lot and also to respond to any neighbor comments about vehicles using the adjacent
streets for parking. The total capacity of the lot is about 100 vehicles. As illustrated in the
"Vehicle Trip to Castle Creek Campus During Peak Hours" chart, the school currently
requires about 40 parking spaces during normal school hours from 8:10 AM— 3:OOPM.
We expect this need to drop based on this mitigation plan, but we also do need some
flexibility for class events and performances. Regardless, the lot has excess capacity for
the school's daily needs, and the permit system will allow us to monitor the situation as
needed.
• The school will actively manage and monitor the morning drop-off
and afternoon pick-up so that all activity occurs within the Gillespie parking lots.
The school clearly understands the concerns of the neighbors regarding parking on the
• streets and the disruption caused by the coming and going of the students. To supervise
this situation, the school will have personnel directing traffic through the circulation
corridor and the parking lots, as well as monitoring parking on the adjacent streets. The
•
school will also be restricting access to the Paepcke parking lot behind the Music Tent.
While this lot will remain available to all employees and patrons of the Aspen Institute,
no ACDS parents will be driving to this area. Faculty will only be allowed to drop off
classroom supplies. Service and delivery vehicles will have access to perform their
required tasks. Otherwise, all ACDS traffic will be restricted to the Gillespie lot.
• The school will actively manage the parking in the Gillespie lot to
incentivize car-pooling to campus. As noted previously, there are about 100 spaces in
the lot. The school has committed to restricting up to 15 spots for the Aspen Institute. Of
the remaining spots, the school will sign a dozen for HOV parking. By allocating specific
parking to faculty and families who carpool, the school will be encouraging this form of
transportation.
• The school has a few all -school events during the year that will bring
large numbers of vehicles to the campus. All such events will be noticed to the
surrounding neighborhood in advance, so they can be prepared and offer their
feedback. Additionally, the school will commit to staging its outdoor education
departures and arrivals from an off -site location. The nature of these trips requires a lot of
gear as well as parent involvement, so we will identify a satellite location to reduce the
congestion on these days.
• The school will work with RFTA and the City Transportation
Department to identify an alternate route for the cross-town shuttle. As the existing
circulation pattern takes the bus through the entire parking lot and through Country Day's
intended Lower School area, we would recommend that the route be adjusted to outside
of the parking area. The school recommends that the cross-town shuttle stop be located
on Gillespie at the end of the walking path that splits the parking lot. To facilitate this
change, the school will remove the signs that designate the existing shuttle location in the
lot and change the current "Hotel Shuttle" signage that is on Gillespie. The school will
properly identify the Gillespie location with "Cross Town Shuttle" signage. All signage
will be restored at the end of the 2012-13 school year.
• The school will work with the City Transportation and Engineering
Departments to locate signage identifying the area as a "School Zone."In the various
neighborhood gatherings facilitated by the MAA and ACDS, neighbor feedback focused
on the speed of vehicles traveling through the West End. To address this concern while
also focusing on the safety of students, ACDS would propose some signage on Gillespie
and the appropriate numbered streets to inform motorists that they are entering a school
zone. As recommended traffic patterns through the neighborhood are better identified, the
appropriate sign locations can be confirmed.
• The school will coordinate all set-up and dismantling of the campus
with the City and surrounding neighborhood. As noted, the school intends to compile
a communication list of all adjacent property owners, so that they can be notified of any
upcoming school events that would impact the neighborhood. This system will also be
utilized to inform them of the logistics of creating the campus. Similarly, the school will
keep the City informed of its construction plans. It has.recently come to our attention that
the Gillespie lots were used for staging of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge last year. With
this event now landing in town for two days during the anticipated move -in time in
August, the school will need to coordinate with the City Special Events department.
While both activities can surely be accommodated in this area, clear communication and
close coordination will be critical. The school has already begun the dialogue with the
necessary City staff.
•
•
In summary, the school will measure the success of its mitigation plan by:
• Increasing down valley consistent bus ridership by 30% from 35 riders to 45 riders and
doubling the number of consistent up valley riders from 9 to 18.
• Doubling the number of faculty who carpool to campus from 7 to 14, by
funding an additional faculty vehicle.
• Reducing the number of AM and PM car trips to the Meadows campus
by 40% from the 2011 average of 130 to an average of 78 or fewer at the Meadows.
• Documenting all school vehicles on a master list and providing a school
sticker to all of these vehicles to better track and enforce parking rules and specifically
designate and monitor HOV parking spaces
Securing the necessary signage to identify a "School Zone" on the
adjacent streets.
Aspen Country Day School looks forward to implementing this plan to reduce the impact of its
program on the West End neighbors. The school is excited about this possibility, and it welcomes
the feedback of the adjacent homeowners and of City Council. The school is confident that this
experience can be positive and successful for students and neighbors alike.

Subject: Aspen Country Day School Temporary Use
To the City Council:
We live on Gillespie Street, across the street from the proposed temporary use. We believe
that introducing a full blown operation of Aspen Country Day School on the properties of the
Aspen Music Festival and the Aspen Institute is a use that it totally inconsistent with the
character of the West End neighborhood. The potential for noise, mischief, traffic and
property damage make this proposal one that the City Council should closely consider and
reject.
The map of proposed uses seems poorly conceived and a disservice to the School and the
Neighborhood. The outdoor areas reserved for student activities are totally inadequate. The
idea of using the Harris Hall lobby as a lunchroom is unworkable. The temporary trailers
depicted as classrooms bear close scrutiny as adequate substitutes for proper school
facilities for young people. Is this really a plan that the City Council would be comfortable
with?
The current campus of the Music Festival which is shared by Aspen Country Day School should
be redeveloped in a way that these entities can stay where they are. There is no reason to
export this activity from the Music School Campus to Aspen's West End. The Music School and
Country Day School should be forced to rethink the redevelopment plan so they can confine
Oit redevelopment activities to their own property by using existing buildings, newly
nstructed buildings and temporary structures.
Thank you for your consideration,
Richard and Deborah Felder
