Parcel I.D. No. 2735-131-285003. DATE: September 14,1998 SUMMARY: The applicant is requesting an 8040 Greenline Review exemption to demolish and remove the existing Aspen Mountain water storage tank (a/k/a the Little Nell tank). Removal of the tank will result in the potential for the site to be utilized for other purposes such as the development of a park on the historic "Millionaire Millsite." At this time, however, the applicant is not proposing anything other that removal of the tank (no reuse proposed). Community Development staff recommends approval with conditions of an 8040 Greenline Review Exemption for the Little Nell Water Storage Tank Removal. APPLICANT: City of Aspen Water Department, represented by Mark O'Meara. LOCATION: The property in question is located above the Top of Mill Street at 237 Aspen Mountain Road. ZONING: Conservation (C) zone district. CURRENT LAND USE: Water storage. BACKGROUND: The 0.5 million gallon Little Nell tank is located on Aspen Mountain's historic "Millionaire Millsite" and was constructed in the early 1960s. With the construction of the 1.0 million gallon Aspen Mountain buried water tank in the early 1980s, the majority of the water customers served by the older tank were connected to the newer system. This left only a handful of buildings in the upper area of the Aspen Alps still being served by the Little Nell tank. When the City investigated rehabilitation and painting of the older, above-ground, steel tank, it learned that the cost would be prohibitive due to the presence of lead-based paint. Water Department staff investigated the use of a pumped system to replace the remaining functions of the water storage tank and found a pumped system to be more cost-effective that continued maintenance of the aging steel tank. After reviewing these options with the Asset Planning Committee, the Asset Management Plan was revised from the previous plan of painting and rehabilitating the tank to removal of the tank. Funds were also appropriated to modify the existing Aspen Mountain pumping station to take over the remaining functions of the water storage tank. The City of Aspen holds title to the Little Nell tank site. After demolition and removal of the tank, the Water Department will have no further use for the site. The Parks Department has expressed interest in developing the tank site and historic mill workings as a park; however, the development of a park is not part of this application and would have to be requested under separate cover. 1 ¥ 0 0 STAFF COMMENTS: Section 26.68.030,8040 Greenline Review Because development is proposed within one hundred fifty (150) feet of the 8040 Greenline, the proposal is subject to review under Section 26.68.030 of the Land Use Code. Section 26.68.030(B), Exemption, states that "the expansion, remodeling or reconstruction of an existing development shall be exempt from 8040 Greenline review if the following standards are met: 1. The development does not add more than ten (10) percent to the jloor area of the existing structure or increase the amount of square footage of areas of the structure which are exempt from floor area calculations by more than twenty-five (25) percent: and RESPONSE: The proposal contemplates only the removal of a structure. Therefore, floor area would be removed with no new area being added. 2. The development does not require the removal of any tree for which a permit would be required pursuant to Section 15.04.450 or the applicant receives a permit pursuant to said section; and RESPONSE: The proposed tank removal would not necessitate the removal of any trees. Staff is recommending that, as a condition of this approval, the site be revegetated with native species according to a landscape plan to be approved by the Parks Department. 3. The development is located such that it is not affected by any geologic hazard and will not result in increased erosion and sedimentation. RESPONSE: Staff does not believe the removal activity would be affected by any geologic hazard, nor would it result in any increased erosion or sedimentation. Existing drainage patterns will be maintained, if not improved, as the amount of impermeable surface would be decreased. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Little Nell Water Storage tank Demolition 8040 Greenline Review Exemption with the following conditions: 1. The building permit submittal/application shall include a landscape plan for the revegatation of the area with native species, and said plan shall be subject to review and approval by the City of Aspen Parks Department. 2. The building permit submittal/application shall include a plan for maintaining drainage on-site during construction and avoiding sediment transport onto public rights-of-way. 3. All material representations made by the applicant in this application shall be adhered to and shall be considered conditions of approval, unless otherwise amended by an entity having authority to do so.

Removal of the Little Nell tank will result in the potential that the site could be utilized for other purposes including the potential development of a park on the historic "Millionaire Millsite. " PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: As part of the 1998 Capital program, Council appropriated $25,000 for demolition and removal of the Little Nell Water Storage Tank located on Aspen Mountain. The Asset Management Plan provides for decommissioning the tank and replacement with a pumped system to provide water and fire protection to the few remaining water accounts currently served by the tank. Council also appropriated $39,000 for regulatory compliance for two other water storage tanks in need of periodic maintenance and in order to satisfy state and federal regulations. BACKGROUND: The 0.5 million gallon Little Nell tank is located on Aspen Mountain on the historic "Millionaire Millsite" and was constructed in the early 1960's. With the construction of the 1.0 million gallon Aspen Mountain buried water tank in the early 1980's, the majority of the water customers served by the older tank were connected to the newer system. This left only a handful of buildings in the upper area of the Aspen Alps which are currently served by the Little Nell tank. When the City investigated rehabilitation and painting of the older above ground steel tank, it learned that the cost would be prohibitive because of the presence of lead based paint. Staff investigated the use of a pumped system to replace the remaining functions of the water storage tank and found it to be more cost effective than continued maintenance of the aging steel tank. After reviewing these options with the Asset Planning Committee, the Asset Management Plan was revised from the previous plan of painting and rehabilitating the tank to removal of the tank. Funds were also appropriated to modify the existing Aspen Mountain pumping station to replace the remaining functions of the water storage tank. CURRENT ISSUES: The City holds title to the Little Nell Tank site on Aspen Mountain. After demolition and removal of the tank, the Water Department will have no further use of the tank site. The Parks Department has expressed interest in developing the tank site and historic mill workings as a park. As a park site, the "Millionaire Millsite" offers exceptional views of the City of Aspen remnants of historic mining uses, access to water for landscape improvements, and potential connections to the trail network under development on Aspen Mountain. Removal of the tank will also result in removal of a prominent visual intrusion to the natural landscape on Aspen Mountain as viewed from town. Timing of work on Aspen Mountain is somewhat critical from the standpoint of coordination of concurrent activities of the Aspen Skiing Company concerning on-mountain improvements taking place this summer. As part of this season's work being performed by the Skiing Company, a temporary access road will be graded to the site. This resulted in lowering the cost of the project to the City and enhances the potential that the City will receive a rebate on the resale of the tank after its removal. The cost of tank removal portion of the project is $20,000, but if the tank is resold, a $10,000 rebate will be provided. ..

J .. ATTACHMENT 1 City of Aspen Development Application Fee Policy The City of Aspen, pursuant to Ordinance 43 (Series of 1996), has established a fee structure for the processing of land use applications. A flat fee or deposit is collected for land use applications based on the type of application submitted. Referral fees for other City departments reviewing the application will also be collected when necessary. One check including the deposit for Planning and referral agency fees must be submitted with each land use application, made payable to the Aspen/Pitkin Community Development Department. Applications will not be accepted for processing without the required application fee. A flat fee is collected by Planning for StaffApprovals which normally take a minimal and predictable amount of staff time to process. The fee is not refundable. A deposit is collected by Planning when more extensive staff review is required, as hours are likely to vary substantially from one application to another. Actual staff time spent will be charged against the deposit. After the deposit has been expended, the applicant will be billed monthly based on actual staffhours. Current billings must be paid within 30 days or processing of the application will be suspended. If an applicant has previously failed to pay application fees as required, no new or additional applications will be accepted for processing until the outstanding fees are paid. In no case will Building Permits be issued until all costs associated with case processing have been paid. After the final action on the project, any remaining balance from the deposit will be refunded to the applicant. Applications which require a deposit must include an Agreement for Payment of Development Application Fees. The Agreement establishes the applicant as being responsible for payment of all costs associated with processing the application. The Agreement must be signed by the party responsible for payment and submitted with the application in order for it to be accepted. The complete fee schedule for land use applications is available at the Community Development Department. .. ASPEN/PITKIN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Agreement for Payment of City of Aspen Development Application Fees (Please Print Clearly) CITY OF ASPEN (hereinafter CITY) and City of Aspen Water Department (hereinafter APPLICANT) AGREE AS FOLLOWS: 1. APPLICANT has submitted to CITY an application for Demolition of the Little Nell 500,000 gallon tank (hereinafter, THE PROJECT). 2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that City of Aspen Ordinance No. 43 (Series of 1996) establishes a fee structure for land use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a condition precedent to a determination of application completeness. 3. APPLICANT and CITY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed project, it is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the application. APPLICANT and CITY further agree that it is in the interest ofthe parties to allow APPLICANT to make payment of an initial deposit and to thereafter permit additional costs to be billed to APPLICANT on a monthly basis. APPLICANT agrees he will be benefited by retaining greater cash liquidity and will make additional payments upon notification by the CITY when they are necessary as costs are incurred. CITY agrees it will be benefited through the greater certainty of recovering its full costs to process APPLICANT'S application. 4. CITY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for CITY staffto complete processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or City Council to enable the Planning Commission and/or City Council to make legally required findings for project approval, unless current billings are paid in full prior to decision. 5. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration ofthe CITY's waiver of its right to collect full fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay an initial deposit in the amount of $ which is for hours of Planning stafftime, and if actual recorded costs exceed the initial deposit, APPLICANT shall pay additional monthly billings to CITY to reimburse the CITY for the processing of the application mentioned above, including post approval review. Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date. APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay such accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing.

Attend pre-application conference. During this one-on-one meeting, staff will determine the review process which applies to your development proposal and will identify the materials necessary to review your application. 2. Submit Development Application. Based on your pre-application meeting, you should respond to the application package and submit the requested number of copies of the complete application and the appropriate processing fee to the Community Development Department. 3. Determination of Completeness. Within five working days of the date of your submission. staff will review the application, and will notify you in writing whether the application is complete or if additional materials are required. Please be aware that the purpose ofthe completeness review is to determine whether or not the information you have submitted is adequate to review the request, and not whether the information is sufficient to obtain approval. 4. Staff Review of Development Application. Once your application is determined to be complete, it will be reviewed by the staff for compliance with the applicable standards of the Code. During the staff review stage, the application will be referred to other agencies for comments. The Planner assigned to your case or the agency may contact you if additional information is needed or if problems are identified. A memo will be written by the staffmember for signature by the Community Development Director. The memo will explain whether your application complies with the Code and willlist any conditions which should apply if the application is to be approved. Final approval of any Development Application which amends a recorded document, such as a plat, agreement or deed restriction, will require the applicant to prepare an amended version of that document for review and approval by staff. Staff will provide the applicant with the applicable contents for the revised plat, while the City Attorney is normally in charge of the form for recorded agreements and deed restrictions. We suggest that you not go to the trouble or expense of preparing these documents until the staff has determined that your application is eligible for the requested amendment or exemption. 5. Receipt of Building Permit. Once you have received a copy of the signed staff approval, you may proceed to building permit review. During this time, your project will be examined for its compliance with the Uniform Building Code. It will also be checked for compliance with applicable provisions of the Land Use Regulations which were not reviewed in detail during the one step review (this might include a check of floor area ratios, setbacks, parking, open space and the like). Fees for water, sewer, parks and employee housing will be collected if due. Any document required to be recorded, such as a plat, deed restriction or agreement, will need to be reviewed and recorded before a Building Permit is submitted.
