Hunter Street. ZONING: C -1 Commercial APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant would like to remove the existing porch and lattice work and install display windows in the front of Ozzie's Shoe Store, adding 164 square feet of commercial space. APPLICABLE SECTION OF MUNICIPAL CODE: Section 24- 11.2(h) of the Municipal Code requires a Planning and Zoning Commission special review for approval of minor commercial expansions exempt from Growth Management Quota System competition. In granting approval P &Z is required to make a determination that there will be "minimal or manageable impact on the community, considering but not limited to findings that a minimal number of additional employees will be generated by the expansion or the applicant will provide additional employee housing; that a minimal amount of additional parking demand will be created or that parking can been accommodated on site; that there will be minimal visual impact on the neighborhood due to the project; and that minimal new demand is placed on services available at the site such as water, sewer, drainage and fire protection." PROBLEM DISCUSSION: A. Referral Comments: 1. Engineering Department: The following comments were made in Elyse Elliott's April 16, 1987 memorandum: a. The expansion will not effect the traffic in the vicinity, nor will it effect an increase in utility usage. b. Removal of the plant boxes will have a very minimal impact on the site runoff, not requiring modifications to the proposal. c. The Engineering Department does not see why the stairs cannot be contained within Ozzie's property. If this design is approved, an Encroachment License will also be required. d. Since the steps are being reconstructed, a handicap access ramp should be included. e. The proposed treatment for the sidewalk is not specified. It must comply with the City's Streetscape Guidelines and should be approved by CCLC. An excavat- ion permit will be required for any work in the right - of -way, including pedestrian barricades during con- struction. 2. Parks Department: Parks Director Bill Ness stated in a conversation on April 17, 1987 that the City will plant at its expense two trees in a planting strip in front of Ozzie's as part of the downtown street improvement program. The applicant must take responsibility for maintenance of these trees. B. Staff comments: The Planning Office notes that a portion of the porch area in front of Ozzie's qualifies as open space ( "open to the sky "). Consequently, construction to the property line, as first proposed, would reduce required open space that is already non - conforming. As a result, the proposal has been modified to bring the bay windows out only to the edge of the roof overhang. A low planter would be placed within the open space. The issue of the handicap ramp has not been solved as of the time of writing. We recommend that the Building Inspector and Handicap Access Board's recommendation on this matter be follow- ed. It will be presented to you at your meeting. The encroachment of new stairs is shown on the original drawing to go out 3 feet into city right -of -way. Along with the Enginee- ring Department, we do not see the need for this full encroach- ment. Given a new setback of the bay window, we anticipate that no encroachment will be proposed. An encroachment under 18 "; provided that a 8' wide sidewalk can be built, is acceptable to staff. The proposed new glass and wood facade of Ozzie's should be complimentary to the storefront proportions of the approved Hunter Plaza Building planned for next door. Visual impacts of the proposal are acceptable, in staff's opinion, although the open character of Ozzie's lattice work will be lost. The applicant has stated no new employees will result, nor are additional parking needs anticipated. Staff concurs with this assessment of impacts. The provision of a planter on Ozzie's property, re -doing the sidewalk to allow better pedestrian circulation on Hunter Street, and providing a 3' wide planting strip will benefit the neighbor- hood in our opinion, and provide other reasons to support this request. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office recommends approval of the requested GMP exemption for a minor commercial expansion of Ozzie's Shoe Store subject to the following conditions: 1. The sidewalk planter and planting strip shall meet the approval of the Commercial Core and Lodging Commission prior to issuance of a building permit and shall be completed prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. The applicant shall maintain the planter and planting strip and the trees to be placed in the planting strip by the City. 2. Encroachment of steps shall not exceed 18" into the public right -of -way and shall be subject to approval by City Council. 3. A handicap ramp shall be provided if recommended by the Building Inspector and Handicap Access Board. sb.ozz MEMORANDUM I o- ; APR 1 61981 111 To: Steve Burstein, Planning Office L From: Elyse Elliott, Engineering Department Date: April 16, 1987 Re: Ozzies Shoes Commercial GMP Exemption The Engineering Department has the following comments on the above application: This expansion will not effect the traffic in the vicinity, nor will it effect the increase the utility usage. Removal of the planter boxes will have a very minimal impact on the site runoff, not requiring modifications to the proposal. The applicant has stated that she will seek a variance for the stairs to project into the sidewalk right -of -way. We do not see why the stairs cannot be contained within Ozzies property. if the variance is granted, an Encroachment License will also be required. Since the steps are being reconstructed, a handicap access ramp should be included. The Building Department has the specifi- cations for this. The application does not state the proposed treatment for the sidewalk. The plan must comply with the City's Streetscape Guidelines and should be approved by CCLC. An excavation permit will be required for any work in the right -of -way, including pedestrian barricades during construction. DfS/ A/ PARTNfi1W 16 MARCH 1987 PLANNING DEPARTMENT CITY OF ASPEN, 130 S GALENA ASPEN, COLORADO 81611 ATIN: STEVE BERNSTEIN RE: DISPLAY WINDOW EXPANSION TO OZZIES SHOES STORE FRONT Dear Steve, We are proposing to remove the existing porch and lattice work from the front of Ozzies Shoes building and install display windows with an overhead facade. The existing porch is built to the property line and we would like to build the new display window area to this line. The existing planters would also be removed, allowing the sidewalk to open. Although we are not providing a designated open space area, we are providing a better circulation pattern in front of the building than exists now and allowing for a 12'8" sidewalk width. Our stairs do project into this width and we are prepared to apply for a city variance for this. The stairs project 3' from the front of the building leaving 9'8" to the road edge. The City requires an 8' sidewalk allowance. Our plan adds 164 square feet of additional F.A.R. to the Ozzies' building, within the property lines and visually not to the extent of the existing lattice, porch and planters. We plan to follow the design direction of the new building going in on the corner of Hunter and Cooper Streets to allow for a sense of continuity on the Hunter Street elevation. The facade portion of our expansion would be built of wood and faced with either brick to match the corner building or wood painted with colour coordination to the new building. We want to retain our individuality but still relate to the new buildings. PO BOX 2839 740PfN COLOR ADO 81672 925°5713 PAGE TWO OZZIES SHOES EXPANSION Our expansion does not require any additional employees or change the use of Ozzies Shoes. We will operate in the same manner as before but with an updated display area. Our shop location is within the C -1 district for city street parking and we do not anticipate any additional task on this from our previous requirements. The 'MAZA' building on the corner of Hunter and Cooper Streets is set for demolition and re- construction starting the 01 May 1987 and we would like to start our removal and installation at the same time. If this schedule can be met, we hope to be completed with our expansion and open for business at the beginning of summer.

THE EXISTING LATTICE WORK AND RAIL ARE BUILT TO THE PROPERTY LINE WHICH IS 6'0" FROM THE EDGE OF THE EXISTING BUILDING. THE EXISTING OVERHANG IS 3'9" FROM THE BUILDING EDGE AND THE NEW DISPLAY WINDOWS WILL BE BUILT TO THIS SIZE. THE REMAINING 2'3" WILL BE OUR DESIGNATED OPEN SPACE. OUR PLAN ADDS 103 SQUARE FEET OF ADDITIONAL F:A:R_ WE ARE WELL WITHIN THE LIMITED 250 SQUARE FEEL' FOR G.M.P. EXEMPTION WITH P &Z APPROVAL. OUR DESIGN FOLIQWS THE LINES OF THE NEW BUILDING TO BE BUILT THIS SUMMER ON THE 'MAZA' PROPERTY ON THE CORNER OF HUNTER AND COOPER STREETS. WE HAVE TAKEN THEIR BALCONY LINE AND FOLLOWED THAT THROUGH TO OUR FACADE LINE, CONTINUING THE HEIGHT AND WIDTH. OUR MATERIALS ARE TO BE WOOD AND TEMPERED GLASS. THE WOOD FACADE WILL HAVE A BUILT UP CORNICE AND BE PAINTED. THE BASE WILL ALSO BE BUILT IN WOOD AND PAINTED. WE ARE WAITING TO SEE WHAT COLOURS HAGMAN YAW CHOOSE FOR THE 'MAZA' BUILDING AND CO-ORDINATE WITH THEM. WE WOULD LIKE TO RETAIN OUR OWN IDENTITY AND INDIVIDUALITY BUT STILL RELATE TO THE NEW SURROUNDING BUILDINGS. THE EXISTING PLANTERS ARE TO BE REMOVED AND NEW SMALL PLANTERS WILL BE INSTALLED IN OUR OPEN SPACE AREA, IN THE FRONT PO BOX 2839 ASPEN COLORADO 87672 925°5773 OF THE BUILDING AND ON EITHER SIDE OF THE STAIRS. WE PLAN TO PAVE A SIDEWALK AREA FROM THE PLANTERS TO 3'0" FROM THE CURB. WE WILL PROVIDE AN AREA FOR THE CITY TO PLANT TREES IN THIS 3'0 ". WE HAVE LOCATED THE TREES ON THE PLAN. WE HAVE MET WITH JIM WILSON OF THE PITKIN COUNTY BUILDING DEPARTMENT AND WITH TOMMY ISSACS, HANDICAPPED CONSULTANT FOR THE CITY AND THEY HAVE WAVED THE HANDICAPPED ACCESS RAMP. THE NEW STEPS TO THE EXISTING ENTRANCE OF OZZIES SHOES WILL ENCROACH THE CITY'S EASEMENT BY 1'6 ". WE FEEL THIS IS NECESSARY TO PROVIDE A LARGE ENOUGH LANDING AT THE DOOR FOR CIRCULATION IN AND OUT OF OZZIES. WE ARE STILL PROVIDING AND 8'0" SIDEWALK FROM THE LAST STEP TO THE TREE AREA. WE WILL BE APPLYING FOR AN ENCROACHMENT VARIANCE FOR THIS. OUR EXPANSION DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES OR CHANGE THE USE OF OZZIES SHOES. WE WILL OPERATE IN THE SAME MANNER AS BEFORE BUT WITH AN UPDATED DISPLAY AREA. OUR SHOP LOCATION IS WITHIN THE C -1 DISTRICT FOR CITY STREET PARKING AND WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE ANY ADDITIONAL TASK ON THIS FROM OUR PREVIOUS REQUIREMIENTS.
