APPROVING VARIANCES IN CASE NUMBER 00 -10 RELATING TO PROPERTY IN
THE CITY OF ASPEN WITH A STREET ADDRESS OF 701 WEST FRANCIS AND A
LEGAL DESCRIPTION OF LOTS H & I, BLOCK 16, ORIGINAL ASPEN TOWNSITE
WHEREAS, Robert Richie made application,
dated July 21, 2000 for a variance from the dimensional

WHEREAS, this matter came on for hearing before the Board of

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT OF
THE CITY OF ASPEN, COLORADO:
Section 1. Findings of Fact.
The Board of Adjustment makes the following findings of
fact:
1. The request for variances was initiated on July 21, 2000
by: Robert Richie for a property located at 701 West Francis,
Aspen, Colorado.
2. Notice of the proposed variance has been provided to
surrounding property owners in accordance with Section 26-
304-060(E)(3) of the Aspen Municipal Code. Evidence of such
notice is on file with the City Clerk.
3. The grant of variance will be generally consistent with

4. The grant of variance is the minimum variance that
will make possible the reasonable use of the parcel,
building or structure.
5. The literal interpretation and enforcement of the
terms of Chapter 26 of the Aspen Municipal Code
would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed
by other parcels in the same zone district, and would
cause the applicant unnecessary hardship or practical
difficulty. In determining that the applicant's rights
would be deprived absent a variance, the Board
considered certain special conditions and circum-
stances which are unique to the parcel, building or
structure, which are not applicable to other parcels,
structures or buildings in the same zone district and
which do not result from the actions of the applicant.
The Board determined that findings above were satisfied and
the variance request was therefore approved by a vote of 4 -1.
Section 2. Request for Variances Approved.
The Board of Adjustment does hereby grant the applicant the
following variance from the terms of Chapter 26 of the Aspen
Municipal Code:
A nine (9) foot combined side yard setback
variance and a five foot front yard setback
variance to modify the existing roof of the
existing building.
