3. The grant of variance will be generally consistent with
the purposes, goals, objectives, and policies of the
Aspen Area Community Plan and Chapter 26 of the
Aspen Municipal Code.
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.
Section 2. Variance Granted.
The Board of Adjustment does hereby grant the applicant the
following variance from the terms of Chapter 26 of the Aspen
Municipal Code by a 4 to I vote:
An eight and one -half (7 34) foot height variance to increase
the height to twenty and one -half (20 ) feet, a 3% site
coverage increase, a 5' decrease in the distance between
buildings (related to the ADU square footage exemption) for
the construction of a detached Accessory Dwelling Unit, deed
restricted to mandatory occupancy, on the northeast side of
616 W. Smuggler.
