Initial Zoning Lot Split FROM: RE: DATE: August 28, 2000 SUMMARY: The applicant, Witz Property, LLC, has submitted a petition for annexation into the City of Aspen and the petition has been accepted by the City Council as complete. The annexation process now requires a determination by City Council on the merits of annexing the property and that step will be administered via a separate Ordinance. As part of annexation, the City of Aspen is required to assign new property to an appropriate zone district. This initial zoning is a process originated by City staff, although applicants often follow the process and supply analysis as needed. In this case, the applicant has submitted analysis supporting the designation of this land as Low Density Residential (R-30). Based on staff analysis and the supporting information provided by the applicant, this R-30 designation is the most appropriate for this area of town and the most congruent with the existing R-30 designation in Pitkin County. Both staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission (7-0 vote) recommend this parcel be included in the R-30 Zone District, upon annexation. This application also includes a request to split the property into two development parcels via the City's Lot Split process. This is a process administered by the City Council and does not require an action by the Planning and Zoning' Commission. The Lot Split application meets all necassary requirements, subject to the recommended conditions of approval. Through a slight oddity in the Land Use Code, any parcel within the City may be split but only those within the Original Townsite are eligible for a GMQS exemption on the newly created lot. In order to gain a development right and a GMQS exemption on this non-Townsite land, the applicant intends to dispose of a Transferable Development Right (TDR) created from the Smuggler Mobile Home Park. The proposed Ordinance documents the disposal of this TDR. Staff recommends adoption of Ordinance No 31, Series of2000. 1 ,-, ,'-" MAIN ISSUES: Community Benefit: This project includes a request to annex into the City of Aspen. As such, there are certain actions necessary by the City Council in their legislative authority in which the Planning Department has little involvement. By virtue of the property being annexed into the City of Aspen, the City has more control over certain aspects of the development such as requiring affordable housing mitigation for replacement after demolition, more effective standards for site and house design, and more strict standards for drainage. In addition, the applicant has enumerated a series of community benefits to annexing this property, attached as Exhibit B. While these items are not all directly associated with the judicial responsibilities of the Lot Split review, these benefits should be considered in the overall picture of this project and the merits of annexation. In general, planning staff considers this package of community benefits to be much greater than with other annexations. Zoning: The annexation process includes a requirement that the newly acquired land be assigned to a Zone District. This is a staff function, however, applicants are typically very interested in the expected outcome of the zoning process. In fact, many annexation petitions are not finalized by the applicant until all requisite land use actions are approved, subject to annexation. In this manner, the applicant can evaluate the merits of finalizing the annexation. . This property is currently withjn Pitkin County's "Suburban Density Residential" (Roo 30) Zone District. The most similar City Zone District is the "Low-Density Residential" (R-30) Zone District. The minimum parcel size is 30,000 square feet. This City Zone District allows for single-family and duplex development by right. A table comparing the respective allowable floor areas in included under the heading "Floor Area." This area oftown is essentially a transition from the high-density developments of Hunter Creek Condominiums and Centennial, the medium density development of Williams Ranch, and the rural-density areas of Smuggler Mountain and the Hunter Creek Valley on the edge of the Forest Service land. The immediate surrounding properties have been developed in either Pitkin County's R-30 zoning or in the City's more intensive R-15 and AH-PUD zoning. The Williams Ranch free-market lots have similar development allowances as the City's R-15 Zone District. The R-30 designation is the most compatible with the Pitkin County zoning, the surrounding area and its transition from high to low density, and the nature of the immediate area. The P&Z Commission reviewed this proposed zoning and recommended approval by a seven to zero (7-0) vote. Staff recommends the application ofR-30 zoning to this parcel, upon annexation. Lot Split: Both the City and the County have a lot split exemption from Subdivision. Although the two processes differ, the differences are not germane to this property and the end 2 ,-, ,~ result is identical regardless of the jurisdiction. In either jurisdiction, the property may be split but the newly created lot is not eligible for an exemption from GMQS, hence the TDR. The County has a well established TDR system that allows for an exemption from growth management in this circumstance. The City does not a have a current TDR system although there exist fully transferable development rights that can be used within the City Boundaries. These City TDR's were the result of the Smuggler Mobile Home Park buy down and were legally created. These City TDR's explicitly grant a full exemption from the Growth Management Quota System for one free market residence each. The applicant has acquired one of these City TDR's and is intending to extinguish the right in order to gain a GQMS exemption. Because there is no specific process outlined in the Land Use Code for "landing" a TDR, the proposed Ordinance documents this action. The Lot Split criteria are essentially objective findings of fact rather than more typical evaluative criteria of most land use reviews. This "checklist" requires the property not be located in a subdivision, is large enough to be split, has not be previously split, won't be split again, is subject to Growth Management, that no more than three residences be developed in total, and that a proper plat be recorded to document the split. The application meets these first three criteria and the Ordinance documents the GMQS exemption, via the TDR, and requires a plat be recorded which indicates no further subdivision is allowed and limits the two parcels to containing three residences'in total. Floor Area. Many of the questions raised by neighbors in the Commission hearing dealt with the potential house sizes in the City versus the County. This is a not a criteria of Lot Split although the information may be helpful in understanding the merits of annexation. Generally, if one house were developed it could be larger in the County than in the City. If two houses are developed, the houses could be larger in the City than in the County. This is due to the City's "sliding scale" FAR as opposed to the County's straight scale for FAR. Floor Area Comparison (Allowable Square footage) City of Aspen Pitkin County One House (w/o Lot Split) Proposed Lot A Proposed Lot B 6,973 8,925 5,631 4,401 5,688 4,524 Important in reviewing this table is that the applicant is allowed to split the lot in both the City and the County 8040 Greenline Review: 8040 Greenline Reviews consider both the technical aspects of development (geotechnical data, ground stability, ability for the property to be served by utilities) 3 ,-." l' and aesthetic aspects of development (architecture, house size, exterior materials, revegetation plans). The 8040 jurisdiction is based upon the 8,040 foot elevation, including all properties within 150 feet (horizontally) of the line, and the review is administered by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Because the rezoning process requires a P&Z hearing, staff encouraged the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider the general suitability of development on this land through an "initial" 8040 Greenline Review (and subject to fmal). Staff believed the Commission's contribution would avoid future problems determining the best methods of development and would help inform Council on the general development parameters of the property. The Commission chose not to consider an "initial" 8040 and no building envelopes or development guidelines have been established as of yet. The 8040 Greenline Review will be required prior to development on both of the proposed lots. Drainage. There has been concern raised about the existing drainage situation in the North Spruce Street area and the best method of dealing with the issue. It is important to note that drainage is a criteria of the Planning and Zoning Commission 8040 Greenline Review and not part of zoning or Lot Split. However, drainage concerns may be considered in the annexation process. After visiting the site, the City Engineer has determined that the large drainage basin above the North Spruce Street neighborhood does not actually drain through the Witz property and is accommodated through the Williams Ranch PUD. This leaves the more common drainage condition of mitigating for increased impermeable surface areas such as roofs and decks. The last drainage issue relates to the manner in which surface drainage along North Spruce Street should be conveyed. This could be accomplished with a curb and gutter typical of more urbanized areas of town. Staff believes this area should remain rural in nature and urban treatments, such as curb and gutter, are inappropriate from a character perspective. There are many viable methods of treating drainage with less urban solutions such as drainage swales that could be utilized. These methods have been successful in other similar mountain towns and have been used in a few Aspen developments, notably the Williams Ranch PUD and the un-built Barbee PUD. Staff believes urban drainage solutions such as curb and gutter should not be used in this location if the applicant is willing to develop an alternative drainage swale. Jay Hanunond, Schmueser Gordon Meyer Engineers, in consultation with the neighbor has recently developed a drainage plan that responds to the functional and aesthetic concerns noted above.

As such, there are certain actions necessary by the City Council in their legislative authority in which the Planning Department has little involvement, By virtue of the property being annexed into the City of Aspen, the City has more control over certain aspects of the development such as requiring affordable housing mitigation for replacement after demolition, more effective standards for site and house design, and more strict standards for drainage. In addition, the applicant has enumerated a series of community benefits to annexing this property, attached as Exhibit B. While these items are not all directly associated with the judicial responsibilities of the Lot Split review, these benefits should be considered in the overall picture of this project and the merits of annexation. In genera!, planning ~taff con~ider~ thi~ package of community benefitg to ht\ mu~h greater than with other annexations. Zoning: The annexation process includes a requirement that the newly acquired land be assigned to a Zone District. This is a staff function, however, applicants are typically very interested in the expected outcome of the zoning process. In fact, many annexation petitions are not finalized by the applicant until all requisite land use actions are approved, subject to annexation. In this manner, the applicant can evaluate the merits of finalizing the annexation. This property is currently within Pitkin County's "Suburban Density Residential" (R- 30) Zone District. The most similar City Zone District is the "Low-Density Residential" (R-30) Zone District. The minimum parcel size is 30,000 square feet. This City Zone District allows for single-family and duplex development by right. A table comparing the respective allowable floor areas in included under the heading "Floor Area." This area of town is essentially a transition from the high-density developments of Hunter Creek Condominiums and Centennial, the medium density development of WHHams Ranch, and the rural-density areas of Smuggler Mountain and the Hunter Creek Valley on !he edge of the Forest Service land. The immediate surrounding properties have been developed in either Pitkin County's R-30 zoning or in the City's more intensive R-15 and AH-PUD zoning. The Williams Ranch free-market lots have similar development allowances as the City's R-15 Zone District. The R-30 designation is the most compatible with the Pitkin County zoning, the surrounding area and its transition from high to low density, and the nature of the immediate area. Staff recommends the application ofR-30 zoning to this parcel, upon annexation. Lot Split: Both the City and the County have a lot split exemption from Subdivision. Although the two processes differ, the differences are not germane to this property and the end result is identical regardless ofthe jurisdiction. In either jurisdiction, the property ., . r\. .~, may be split but the newly created lot is 11?~eligiblefor an exemption from GMQS, hence the TDR. The County has a well established TDR system that allows for an exemption from growth management in this circumstance. The City does not a have a current TDR system although there exist fully transferable development rights that can be used within the City Boundaries. These City TDR's were the result of the Smuggler Mobile Home Park buy down and were legally created. These City TDR's explicitly grant a full exemption from the crrowth Management Quota System for one free market residence each. The applicant has aquired one of these City TDR's and is intending to extinguish the right in order to gain a GQMS exemption. Because there is no specific process outlined in the Land Use Code for "landing" a TDR, the proposed Ordinance documents this action. The Lot Split criteria are essentially objective findings of fact rather than more typical evaluative criteria of most land use reviews. This "checklist" requires the property not be located in a subdivision, is large enough to be split, has not be previously split, won't be split again, is subjectto crrowth Management, that no more than three residences be developed in total, and that a proper plat be recorded to document the split. The application meets these first three criteria and the Ordinance documents the GMQS exemption, via the TDR, and requires a plat be recorded which indicates no further subdivision is allowed and limits the two parcels to containing three residences in total. Floor Area. Many of the questions raised by neighbors in the Commission hearing dealt with the potential house sizes in the City versus the County. This i.~ li not a criteria of Lot Split although the information may be helpful in understanding the merits of annexation. Generally, if one house were developed it could be larger in the County than in the City. If two houses are developed, the houses could be larger in the City than in the County. This is due to the City's "sliding scale" FAR as opposed to the County's straight scale for FAR.

The 8040jurisdictiort is based upon the 8,040 foot elevation, including all properties within 150 feet (horizontally) of the line, and the review is administered by the Planning and Zoning Commission. 8040 Greenline Review is not part of the City Council's authority. Because the rezoning process requires a P&Z hearing, staff encouraged the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider the general suitability of development on this land through an "initial" 8040 Greenline Review (and subject to final). Staff believed the Commission's contribution would avoid futurc problcms dctcrmining the best methods of development and would help inform Council on the general development parameters of the property. The Commission chose not to consider an "initial" 8040 and no building envelopes or development guidelines have been established as of yet. The 8040 Greenline Review will be required prior to development on both of the proposed lots. Drainage. There has been concern raised about the existing drainage situation in the North Spruce Street area and the best method of dealing with the issue. It is important to note that drainage is a criteria of the Planning and Zoning Commission 8040 Greenline Review and not part of zoning or Lot Split. However, drainage concerns may be considered in the annexation process. After visiting the site, the City Engineer has determined that the large drainage basin above the North Spruce Street neighborhood does not actually drain through the Witz property and is accommodated through the Williams Ranch PUD. This leaves the more common drainage condition of mitigating for increased impermeable surface areas such as roofs and decks. The last drainage issue relates to the manner in which surface drainage along North Spruce Street should be conveyed. This could be accomplished with a curb and gutter typical of more urbanized areas of town. Staff believes this area should remain rural in nature and urban treatments, such as curb and gutter, are inappropriate from a character perspective. There are many viable methods of treating drainage with less urban solutions such as drainage swales that could be utilized. These methods have been successful in other similar mountain towns and have been used in a few Aspen developments, notably the Williams Ranch PUD and the un-built Barbee PUD. Staff believes urban drainage solutions such as curb and gutter should not be used in this location if the applicant is willing to develop an alternative drainage swale. The applicant has recently developed a drainage plan that responds to the aesthetic concerns noted above and to the concerns of a downstream neighbor. ApPLICANT: Witz Property, LLC.

Whether the proposed amendment is in conflict with any applicable portions of this title. Staff Finding: The proposed Low Density Residential (R-30) Zone District is compatible with other portions of the Land Use Code and with the Municipal Code. B. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the Aspen Area Community Plan. Staff Finding: The AACP does not directly address this parcel. This parcel is within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) which generally preserves open space and discourages sprawl in areas not part of, or adjacent to, the urbanized areas of Aspen. The zoning proposed for this site largely reflects the Pitkin County zoning and does not represent a significant change in the amount of allowed development. In other words, staff does not believe the application of City zoning represents either an "up-zoning" or a "down-zoning" in the traditional sense, but rather a status quo. Staff believes this R-30 zoning to be the most consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. C. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with surrounding zone districts and land uses, considering existing land use and neighborhood characteristics. Staff Finding: The parcel in question and the immediate North Spruce Neighborhood represents a transition zone from the more densely developed Williams Ranch and Centennial Condominiums area and the rural areas of Smuggler Mountain and the Hunter Creek Valley. This neighborhood is essentially the last area of semi-urban development at the base of Smuggler Mountain. The neighborhood characteristic is modeled after this R-30 zoning and the City has proactively encouraged re-developing parcels to adhere to the more restrictive City R-30 zoning through water service agreements. D. The effect of the proposed amendment on traffic generation and road safety. Witz Exhibit A Page 1 ,-, ~, Staff Finding: The application of the City's R-30zoning is the least dense City zoning that can be applied without creating an illegal non-conformity. The zoning does not necessarily allow for a greater amount of development, as the County has a similar process for creating tow development parcels, The maximum three units that are allowed through the City Lot Split process (a single-family and a duplex) will not over capacitate the road system and is not expected to create an unsafe traffic situation. E. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such facilities, including, but not limited to, transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, and emergency medical facilities. Staff Finding: The proposed City R-30 zoning represents a development potential similar to that allowed for in Pitkin County's R-30 zoning. The utility and infrastructure needs for the project have been addressed in the 8040 Greenline application and there does not appear to be any infrastructure constraints that would indicate that this proposed zoning is inappropriate. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment. Staff Finding: Staff believes the proposed City R-30 and the proposed development do not represent adverse impacts upon the natural environment. The residential density is appropriate for the area and the City's jurisdiction over the land allows for impacts on the natural environment to be considered through the 8040 Greenline Review. G. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent and compatible with the community character in the City of Aspen. Staff Finding: The proposed City R-30 will result in development that is consistent and compatible with the character of the City of Aspen. The R-30 Zone District is very similar in nature to Pitkin County's R-30 zoning. The development potential of the parcel will not necessarily increase if the annexation is completed. H. Whether there have been changed conditions affecting the subject parcel or the surrounding neighborhood which support the proposed amendment. Staff Finding: The property owner has applied for annexation into the City of Aspen and the City, upon annexation being completed, is required by law to apply zoning to the land. Witz Exhibit A Page 2 1""". I""" I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this title. Staff Finding: The City R-30 zoning is the most consistent with the existing Piktin County zoning. This zoning represents the most appropriate with regards to the general City structure of decreasing development potential further form the town center, the characteristics of the immediate neighborhood and the characteristics of the property itself. Staff believes the proposed zoning promotes the purpose and intent of this Title and is in harmony with the public interest. Staff Comments: Lot Split City Council shall exempt a Lot Split from the provisions of Subdivision if the following conditions are met: A. The land is not located in a subdivision approved by either the Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners or the City Council, or the land is described as a metes and bounds parcel which has not been subdivided after the adoption of subdivision regulations by the City of Aspen on March 24, 1969. Staff Finding: The parcel is described as a metes and bounds parcel and is not part of a Subdivision. B. No more than two (2) lots are created by the lot split, both lots conform to the requirements ofthe underlying zone district. Any lot for which development is proposed will mitigate for affordable housing pursuant to Section 26.100.050(A)(2)( c). Staff Finding: Both proposed Lots conform to the R-30 Zone District. The existing house may continue to exist on the newly created lot line for the life of the structure. Upon redevelopment, all structures shall conform to the required setbacks and the existing house shall not be construed to allow a continuation of a non-conformity. This shall be noted on the final plat. The above referenced affordable housing mitigation citing the Land Use Code is incorrect and should refer to Section 26.470.070(B). Because the property is located outside of the Original Townsite, the newly created lot is not eligible for this GMQS exemption. The existing house preserves a development right and may be replaced after provision of mitigation according to the noted Section. Recognizing the non-Townsite situation, the applicant has acquired a Transferable Development Right that is fully Witz Exhibit A Page 3 ~ . 1"""'. .~ transferable in the City of Aspen for the purpose of developing a free-market home exempt from the Growth Management Quota System. This TDR was created legally and may be used to exempt the second Lot from the requirements of GMQS. Because there is no specific procedure for."landing" a TDRin the City, staffhas included language in the Ordinance that extinguishes this TDR. C. The lot under consideration, or any part thereof, was not previously the subject of a subdivision exemption under the provisions of this chapter or a "lot split" exemption pursuant to Section 26.100.050 (C)(3)(a); and Staff Finding: This property has not previously received a Subdivision Exemption. D. A subdivision plat which meets the terms of this chapter, and conforms to the requirements ofthis title, is submitted and recorded in the office ofthe Pitkin County clerk and recorder after approval, indicating that no further subdivision may be granted for these lots nor will additional units be built without receipt of applicable approvals pursuant to this chapter and growth management allocation pursuant to Chapter 26.100. Staff Finding: A Lot Split Plat shall be recorded within 180 days of the adoption date of the Ordinance. This plat shall depict two Lots in conformance with the R-30 Zone District and shall include the following plat notes: · The existing house need not be demolished to accommodate the newly created lot boundaries and the encroachments into the side yards may continue to exist for the life of the original structure only. Upon redevelopment, all structures on these two lots shall comply with the R-30 Zone District provisions with respect to the newly created lot boundaries and setbacks. · The developer of Lot A shall seek an exemption from GMQS pursuant to Section 26.470.070(B), as amended from time to time. · The developer of Lot B is exempt from the Growth Management Quota System by virtue of extinguishing a Transferable Development Right pursuant to Ordinance No --' Series of2000. E. The subdivision exemption agreement and plat shall be recorded in the office of the Pitkin County clerk and recorder. Failure on the part ofthe applicant to record the plat within one hundred eighty (180) days.following approval by the City Council shall render the plat invalid and reconsideration of the plat by the City Council will be required for a showing of good cause. Staff Finding: Staffhas recommended the Plat serve as the Agreement. Witz Exhibit A Page 4 .. .~. r"'\ F. In the case where an existing single-family dwelling occupies a site which is eligible for a lot split, the dwelling need not be demolished prior to application for a lot split. Staff Finding: The existing house is not required to be demolished. It should be noted on the plat that the existing house does not create a vested encroachment into the (new) side yards and that the encroachment may only exist for the life of the building. G. Maximum potential buildout for the two (2) parcels created by a lot split shall not exceed three (3) units, which may be composed of a duplex and a single-family home. Staff Finding: The application implies that each lot will be for the purpose of a single-family residence. A condition of the approval restricts the two lots to a single-family residence each.

The annexation process now requires a deterniination by City Council on the merits of annexing the property and that step has not been completed. As part of annexation, the City of Aspen is required to assign property to an appropriate zone district. This initial zoning is a process originated by City staff, although applicants often follow the process and supply analysis as needed. In this case, the applicant has submitted analysis supporting the designation of this land as Low Density Residential (R-30). Based on staff analysis and the supporting information provided by the applicant, this R-30 designation is the most appropriate for this area oftown and the most congruent with the existing R-30 designation in Pitkin County. This application also includes a request to split the property into two development parcels via the City's Lot Split process. This is a process administered by the City Council and does not require an action by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Although it is not within the Commission's purview, the Commission should be aware that the applicant intends to dispose of a Transferable Development Right (TDR) created from the Smuggler Mobile Home Park in order to gain a GMQS exemption on the newly created lot. Because this area is within the 8040 Greenline Review jurisdiction, staff believes the Planning and Zoning Commission's contribution to the manner in which the lot is split may avoid future problems determining the best methods of development. To that end, this application includes a request for an "initial" 8040 Greenline review to determine general suitability for development. As the detail of actual development are not available, a "final" 8040 Greenline Review will be necessary prior to construction. Staff recommends the initial 8040 Greenline Review be approved by the Commission and that a recommendation of R-30 Zoning for this land be forwarded to the City Council. 1 ,-, ,-, MAIN ISSUES: Zoning: The annexation process includes a requirement that the newly acquired land be assigned to a Zone District. This is a staff function, however, applicants are typically very interested in the expected outcome of the zoning process. In fact, many annexation petitions are not finalized by the applicant until all requisite land use actions are approved, subject to annexation. In this manner, the applicant can evaluate the merits of finalizing the annexation. This property is currently within the Pitkin County "Suburban Density Residential" (R-30) Zone District. The minimum parcel size is 30,000 square feet. This Zone District allows for single-family development by right and duplex development by Special Review. A single-family home of approximately 10,150 square feet is allowed with this zoning. (This is not accounting for reductions in Lot Area for access easements.) The most similar City Zone District is the "Low-Density Residential" (R-30) Zone District. The minimum parcel size is 30,000 square feet. This City Zone District allows for single-family and duplex development by right. A single-family home of approximately 7,161 square feet or a duplex of approximately 7,861 square feet could be developed on the parcel. With the contemplated Lot Split, each new parcel could be developed with a single-family home of approximately 5,941 square feet or a duplex of 6,361 square feet. (This is not accounting for reductions in Lot Area for access easements.) This area of town is essentially a transition from the high-density developments of Hunter Creek Condominiums and Centennial, the medium density development of Williams Ranch, and the rural-density areas of Smuggler Mountain and the Hunter Creek Valley on the edge ofthe Forest Service land. The immediate surrounding properties are typified by the R-lS Zone District which would allow for more density than the Williams Ranch development and the Rural Residential Zone District which would create a non-conforming situation for the property. The R-30 designation is the most compatible with the Pitkin County zoning, the surrounding area and its transition from high to low density, and the nature of the immediate area. Staff recommends the application ofR-30 zoning to this parcel, upon annexation. 8040 Greenline Review: Typically, 8040 Greenline Reviews consider both the technical aspects of development (geotechnical data, ground stability, ability for the property to be served by utilities) and the projects aesthetics (architecture, exterior materials, revegetation plans). In this case only the first threshold issues will be contemplated in order to aid City Council in evaluating the merits of the Lot Split configuration. This "initial 8040" is an opportunity for the Planning and Zoning Commission to avoid future development problems that might be created by virtue of the lot configurations. This initial review will not consider specific aesthetic parameters of development and those criteria will need to be addressed prior to actual development. 2 ,-." /~ The application meets the standards that can be a.dequately evaluated and the proposed parcels appear to be developable in a manner consistent with the remaining 8040 criteria. The remaining criteria include those related to siting of structures, architecture, and cutlfill impacts. It should be noted that the proposed building envelopes are more restrictive than the zoning setbacks. This allows for more concentrated development and less impact on the natural vegetation, a criteria of 8040 Greenline Review. Staff has raised a concern related to the upper portion of the building envelop on proposed Lot A. By further restricting development in this upper (northern) portion of the lot a significant number of small trees (that are not large enough to require mitigation) and the natural (dry) drainage-way could be preserved. The applicant has expressed interest in meeting staff s concern but not necessarily limiting the options a developer may desire or possibly require. The applicant has offered to describe this area of the proposed building envelope as a "conditional building envelope" (or some similar description) subject to further review during the final 8040 Greenline Review. This gives a future applicant the opportunity to present a better scenario to the Commission that either preserves the area, proves that it has no intrinsic value, or mitigates for the impacts on the area. In staffs perspective, this distinction gives the necessary "heads-up" to a purchaser that the area should be avoided if possible but can be part of the development if otherwise unavoidable. Staff believes this gives the area adequate protection and the Commission adequate flexibility. There has been concern raised about the existing drainage situation in the North Spruce Street area and the best method of dealing with the issue. After visiting the site, the City Engineer has determined that the large drainage basin above the North Spruce Street neighborhood does not actually drain through the Witz property and is accommodated through the Williams Ranch PUD. This leaves the more common drainage condition of mitigating for increased impermeable surface areas such as roofs and decks for which staff has added a condition. The last drainage issue relates to the manner in which surface drainage along North Spruce Street should be conveyed. This could be accomplished with a curb and gutter typical of more urbanized areas of town. Staff believes this area should remain rural in nature and urban treatments, such as curb and gutter, are inappropriate from a character perspective. There are many viable methods of treating drainage with less urban solutions such as drainage swales that should be prioritized. These methods have been successful in other similar mountain towns and have been used in a few Aspen developments, notably the Williams Ranch PUD and the un-built Barbee PUD. Staff has added a condition to the proposed Resolution that urban drainage solutions such as curb and gutter not be used in this location if the applicant is willing to develop an alternative drainage swale.

Exhibit A Witz Property Review Criteria and Staff Findings: Staff Comments: Rezoning Section 26.310.020, Standards Applicable to Rezoning In reviewing an amendment to the official zone district map, the City Council and the Commission shall consider: A. Whether the proposed amendment is in conflict with any applicable portions ofthis title. Staff Finding: The proposed Low Density Residential (R-30) Zone District is compatible with other portions of the Land Use Code and with the Municipal Code. B. Whether the proposed amendmllnt is consistent with all elemllnts of the Aspen Area Community Plan. Staff Finding: The AACP does not directly address this parceL This parcel is within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) which generally preserves open space and discourages sprawl in areas not part of, or adjacent to, the urbanized areas of Aspen. The zoning proposed for this site largely reflects the Pitkin County zoning and does not represent a significant change in the amount of allowed development. In other words, staff does not believe the application of City zoning represents either an "up-zoning" or a "down-zoning" in the traditional sense, but rather a status quo. Staff believes this R-30 zoning to be the most consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. C. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with surrounding zone districts and land uses, considering existing land use and neighborhood characteristics. Staff Finding: The parcel in question and the immediate North Spruce Neighborhood represents a transition zone from the more densely developed Williams Ranch and Centennial Condominiums area and the rural areas of Smuggler Mountain and the Hunter Creek Valley. This neighborhood is essentially the last area of semi-urban development at the base of Smuggler Mountain. The neighborhood characteristic is modeled after this R-30 zoning and the City hasproactively encouraged re-developing parcels to adhere to the more restrictive City R-30 zoning through water service agreements. ,-, ,'-' D. The effect of the proposed amendment on traffic generation and road safety. Staff Finding: The application of the City's R-30zoning is the least dense City zoning that can be applied without creating an illegal non-conformity. The zoning does not necessarily allow for a greater amount of development, but annexation into the City of Aspen provides a Lot Split process not available to the applicant while the parcel resides in Pitkin County. The maximum three units that are allowed through the City Lot Split process (a single-family and a duplex) will not over capacitate the road system and is not expected to create an unsafe traffic situation. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment. Staff Finding: Staff believes the proposed City R-30 and the proposed development do not represent adverse impacts upon the natural environment. The residential density is appropriate for the area and the City's jurisdiction over the land allows for impacts on the natural environment to be considered through the 8040 Greenline Review. G. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent and compatible with the community character in the City of Aspen. Staff Finding: The proposed City R-30 will result in development that is consistent and compatible with the character of the City of Aspen. The R-30 Zone District is very similar in nature to Pitkin County's R-30 zoning. The development potential of the parcel will not necessarily increase if the annexation is completed, but the ease in achieving that potential is greater. H. Whether there have been changed conditions affecting the subject parcel or the surrounding neighborhood which support the proposed amendment. ~. ~ Staff Finding: The property owner has applied for annexation into the City of Aspen and the City, upon annexation being completed, is required by law to apply zoning to the land. I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this title. Staff Finding: The City R-30 zoning is the most consistent with the existing Piktin County zoning. This zoning represents the most appropriate with regards to the general City structure of decreasing development potential .further form the town center, the characteristics of the immediate neighborhood and the characteristics of the property itself. Staff believes the proposed zoning promotes the purpose and intent of this Title and is in harmony with the public interest. 26.435.0308040 Greenline Review. A. Applicability. The provisions of 8040 greenline review shall apply to all development located at or above 8040 feet above mean sea level (the 8040 greenline) in the City of Aspen, and all development within one hundred fifty (150) feet below the 8040 greenline, unless exempted pursuant to Section 26.435.030 (8). Staff finding: The property is within this area and is not eligible for an exemption. C. 8040 green line review standards. No development shall be permitted at, above, or one hundred fifty (150) feet below the 8040greenline unless the commission makes a determination that the proposed development complies with all requirements set forth below. 1. The parcel on which the proposed development is to be located is suitable for development considering its slope, ground stability characteristics, including mine subsidence and the possibility of mud flow, rock falls and avalanche dangers. If the parcel is found to contain hazardous or toxic soils, the applicant shall stabilize and revegetate the soils, or, where necessary, cause them to be removed from the site to a location acceptable to the city. Staff finding: There are no known hazardous soils on this property. The geological report determined this property to be suitable for development. The applicant's Engineer has recommended specific site grading techniques to be used on this site and the applicant has agreed to accommodate those recommendations into the design of the structures. Those recommendations have been included in the proposed Resolution. If upon actual construction toxic soils are discovered, the contractor should immediately halt operation and contact the City Engineer. ,-." ~. 2. The proposed development does not have a significant adverse affect on the natural watershed, runoff, drainage, soil erosion or have consequent effects on water pollution. Staff finding: The City Engineer has expressed concerns about the drainage patterns in the area. This is a general concern about the area and not specifically about this property, although this is the first property in this neighborhood to be presented to the City Engineer. After consulting with the applicant's Engineer and performing a site visit it has been determined by the City Engineer that the drainage through proposed Lot A described as "surface drainage" is actually a consistently dry area that probably only experiences flow during severe events. It was determined that the Witz property does not convey drainage from the large water shed above the North Spruce neighborhood as the majority of that drainage has been historically directed through the Williams Ranch PUD area. It was also determined that drainage along North Spruce Street could be managed by use of a drainage swale. This method is not typically endorsed by the Engineering Department as often as curb and gutter solutions. With respect to this last point, planning staff does want to make it clear that an urban treatment in this rural area will appear out of character and should not be done. There are very viable and appropriate solutions to conveying drainage along the road with the use of drainage swales, etc. that have been used in many mountain town effectively and the same approach should be taken in this area of town. Planning staff believes the applicant should be required to treat drainage with a drainage swale, or similar solutions, in-lieu of filing a curb and gutter agreement. 4. The design and location of any proposed deveiopmer\t, road, or trail is compatible with the terrain on the parcel on which the proposed development is to be located. Staff finding: This standard applies to the two proposed driveway entrances. These entrances are both proposed on the upper (topographic~ly) sides of the proposed lots which, in staffs expectation, will provide for greater ease in complying with the Residential Design Standards. It is difficult to evaluate the location of proposed development other than the driveway access and staff recommends this criteria be a criteria of the final 8040 Review. 5. Any grading will minimize, to the extent practicable, disturbance to the terrain, vegetation and natural land features. r-,. ~. Staff finding: This criteria cannot be adequately evaluated with the level of information submitted. Staff recommends this criteria be evaluated when plans are more developed prior to actual development. A "follow-up review" will be necessary for this criteria to be evaluated. The applicant has proposed the requirement of each lot submitting a grading plan and a revegetation plan as part of the follow-up review. In addition, the applicant has proposed a set of general design principles to minimize the impacts from grading and allow for adequate revegetation. These principles are acceptable design practices and have been included in the proposed Resolution. The application includes a landscape plan for the entryway. The proposed vegetation will aid the closure of the existing loop driveway and are native species. The "stone and masonry features" appear to indicate a private enclave and should not include directional information as this is in contradiction to the City's sign code. Staff discourages these type of entry way markers as they may wrongly portray the need for enclaves protected from the public. Staff has included in the proposed Resolution the ability for stone pillars with no directional information and the provision of street number indicators at each driveway entrance. 6. The placement and clustering of structures will minimize the need for roads, limit cutting and grading, maintain open space, and preserve the mountain as a scenic resource. 7. Building height and bulk will be minimized and the structure will be designed to blend into the open character of the mountain. Staff finding: These criteria require a final submittal that indicates an actual design. This level of detail has not been provided and the applicant has proposed submission of the requisite information as part of a final 8040 Review. 8. Sufficient water pressure and other utilities are available to service the proposed development. Staff finding: There is sufficient water to serve this property and the proposed development. The area is currently served by the City via a private water system and a new main installed recently. An existing water service agreement would need to be amended to accommodate the new house. There is sufficient capacity and pressure to serve this development with both domestic water and fire suppression. The Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District reports sufficient capacity to serve this development. There exists sufficient electric capacity supplied by Holy Cross. No other utilities are expected to be negatively impacted including those related to schools, parks, or governmental services. ~ i~ 9. Adequate roads are available to serve the proposed development, and said roads can be properly maintained. 10. Adequate ingress and egress is available to the proposed development so as to ensure adequate access for fire protection and snow removal equipment. Staff finding; North Spruce Street serves a limited number of homes and is sufficient for its purpose. No expansion of the road has been recommended. The proposed driveways have been placed to minimize the affects of limited sight distances in the area from the "switch- back" style road. The Fire Marshal did not report any difficulty the proposed access road may pose, only that the proposed residences may need to be fire sprinkled depending upon the size. The proposed driveway entrances do not pose any snow removal circumstances that require altering the plans or special operational attention. 11. Any trail on the parcel designated on the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan: Parks/Recreation/Open Space/Trails Plan map is dedicated for public use. Provide access to natural resources and areas of special interest to the community. Staff finding: The existing Lani White Trail is depicted in the AACP. Apparently, there is no easement corresponding with this trail across the applicant's property and the applicant has verbally represented the desire to grant to the City this easement. This easement will be accepted and should be reflected on the Lot Split plat. In addition, the applicant has expressed a desire to improve the trail entrance with possibly a bench and/or other aesthetic improvements. These improvements have not been fully conceived at this point, but appear to be well intentioned and are expected be a welcome addition to the area. These improvements can be considered by the Parks Department separately and do not necessarily require any type of Commission action. There are no trails suggested for the southern boundary of the property in the 2000 AACP. The Parks Department has indicated a desire for the development of a foot path along this property boundary to further aid the area's pedestrians. Staff does not believe this foot path is absolutely necessary for area residents as most people walk within the road easement, North Spruce Street is a dead end with no connection to trails, and there is very little traffic. Staff does not believe a footpath is necessary and is not recommending a requirement of the applicant. If the applicant wishes to construct this footpath, plans must be approved by the City Trail Coordinator prior to construction.

Improvements Survey Proposed Site Plan Proposed Subdivision Exemption Plat Proposed Entry Enhancement Plan "" - ~ .- - I. INTRODUCTION - This is an application to develop two single family houses on a parcel of land located at 705 North Spruce Street. The property consists of approximately 1.792 acres of land (approximately 78,046 sq. ft.) located in unincorporated Pitkin County. The applicant has submitted, under separate cover, a petition to annex the property to the City of Aspen. ,..... - The location of the site in relation to neighboring properties is shown on the vicinity map. It shows that the site is surrounded by single-family and multi-family residential uses located at the end of Spruce Street. "...,\ j An improvements survey, depicting existing conditions on the property, has also been provided. It shows that the property presently contains a single-family house. The driveway serving this house is in a looped configuration, with an entry and an exit cut from North Spruce Street. - ," The survey also depicts topography on the property. This is a relatively flat piece of land, with prevailing slopes in the range of 15% to 20%. Vegetation on the property includes an area of relatively dense trees surrounding the existing residence, with the remainder of the property covered with low lying brush. This application is being submitted by the Witz Property liC (hereinafter, "the Applicant"), the owner of the property. Proof of the ownership of the property is provided by Exhibit #1, the title insurance commitment. Authorization for Alan Richman Planning Services to represent the property owner for this application is provided by Exhibit #2. The Applicant proposes that concurrent with its annexation to the City, the property be split into two lots,each.of which will contain well in excess of 30,000 sq. ft., so they will be conforming sized lots in the R.30 zone district. The existing house will be demolished and replaced with a new residence. A new residence will also be built on the second lot. ~ ""*" , . In addition, upon approval of this project, a deed restriction will be placed on a little Victorians Condominium, for which the Applicant is a contract purchaser. This one (1) bedroom free market housing unit is located at 634 W. Main Street, right along the City's main transit route. The Applicant is voluntarily offering to restrict this unit as Category 3 affordable housing.

II. rkJw~ ANNEXATION AND ZONING TO R-30 ~ The Applicant has submitted, under separate cover, the required number of copies of a petition to annex this property to the City of Aspen. The required number of copies of an annexation map have also been provided. The annexation map evaluates the contiguity of the subject property with the municipal boundaries of the City of Aspen. This map illustrates that the subject property has well in excess of the necessary one-sixth (1/6) contiguity with the municipal boundaries. The Applicant requests that the City zone the subject property Low Density Residential (R- 30). It is our understanding that the City will initiate this zoning in conjunction with the annexation procedures. In support of the City's zoning activities, the Applicant offers the following reasons that R-30 would be the appropriate zoning for this property: 1. County Zoning. This property is zone~R:3-;;Jin unincorporated Pitkin County. Historically, it has been the City's policy to apply a zoning designation to newly annexed properties that is similar to the property's former zoning in the County. An R-30 City zoning designation would be consistent with this past practice. 2. Neighborhood Compatibility. The neighborhood in which this project is located is a developing portion of the Aspen area. The Williams Ranch and Silverlode developments, which are presently nearing completion, are located immediately to the southeast of the property. Williams Ranch includes 35 affordable housing units, located on slightly less than 6 acres of land (a density of approximately 6 units to the acre). Silverlode contains 15 free market units, located on slightly less than 7 acres of land (a density of approximately 2 units to the acre), with lot sizes ranging from approximately 11,000 sq. ft. to 30,000 sq. ft. A new single family house is being built on a 1 acre lot located immediately above the subject property, while two other houses already exist on 1 acre parcels located adjacent to and above the subject property. Therefore, this project clearly represents an infill development and not one that extends the development limits of the Aspen area. It also represents a development being proposed at a density that is compatible to that of surrounding properties. Surrounding Zoning. Properties located below North Spruce Street have been designated AH/PUD and R/MF-A, permitting multi-family affordable housing projects, such as Centennial, Williams Ranch, Williams Woods, and Hunter Creek, to be built. Properties located above North Spruce Street, in unincorporated Pitkin County, have been designated R-30, and AFR-I0, allowing for lower density residential development. The R-30 designation for this property represents an appropriate transition between higher density zoning for lands along the valley floor, and lower density zoning for larger parcels that are at higher elevations. Page 3 '" Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Witz Property r"':.. - '"' .... 4. Residential Character. The R-30 designation will permit the Applicant to split the property into two lots, each of which complies with the minimum lot size requirements of the zone district and all of the other applicable portions of the Land Use Code. By splitting the property into two lots, the City can be certain that the resulting development will be more in character with house sizes in the surrounding neighborhood than if a single, much larger house were built on the entire property. ""' ;0......., 5. Affordable Housing. The Applicant is voluntarily offering, as a condition of annexation, to deed restrict a free market unit at the Little Victorian Condominiums as affordable housing. The addition of this unit to the community's housing inventory is consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan, which seeks to increase the amount of affordable housing that is available to employees of the community. ~. ~ ....' The condominium unit is a 1 bedroom loft unit that is approximately 575 sq. ft. in size. It is in excellent condition. The Applicant has agreed to replace the appliances in the unit with new ones and the current oWner of the unit has agreed to make some minor repairs to the unit (a leak in the skylight, some exposed wiring in the bathroom, and a bathroom fan), as requested by the Housing Office. Access to the 10ft bedroom, which presently may not meet Code, will be changed to meet City building requirements. C> ~ .A The proposal to deed restrict this unit was reviewed by the Housing Authority at their meeting on April 5, 2000. A copy of the staff memo concerning this proposal, with attachments from the realtors involved in the transaction, is attached as Exhibit #5. The Housing Authority voted unanimously to approve the proposed deed restriction, and to establish a sale price for the unit of $100,000, at approximately the midpoint between Categories 2 and 3. . ,... ,..., 6. ~~ In addition, an accessory dwelling unit will be built on each. of the lots, which will ~ I. (,,( provide an additional opportunity to house local employees. ur ~~ Available Services. The low density residential development that would be permitted ~ by zoning this property R-30 can be served by public facilities that are already in place in the North Spruce Street neighborhood. This low density of development will not overburden the road network, nor will it have adverse affects on road safety. It will have no adverse impacts on the natural. environment. - ,... ,... It is our understanding that annexation of the property will follow on a parallel track to the review of this lapd use application, with annexation and zoning occurring coincidental with the final action on this application. The Applicant hereby requests that the annexation of this property and its zoning to R-30 be finally adopted at the same time the other land use procedures addressed in this application are acted upon by City Council, so that the Applicant is fully aware of the land use implications of the annexation when it finally occurs. "'" '^ ~ Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Witt Property Page 4 ,"'" - ,~ III. SUBDMSION EXEMPTION FOR LOT SPLIT _. '" Section 26.480.030 A2 of the Aspen Land Use Code provides the opportunity for an applicant to split a parcel of land into two separate lots via an exemption from subdivision. To obtain the subdivision exemption, the applicant must comply with the following standards: ...... a. The land is not located in a subdivision approved by either the Pitkin County Board of Commissioners or the City Council, or the land is described as a metes and bounds parcel which has not been subdivided after the adoption of subdivision regulations by the City of Aspen on March 24,1969. ,.,...., -. Response: The land is a metes and bounds parcel that is not located in a subdivision approved by the City or the County and that has not previously been subdivided. - b. No more than two (2) lots are created by the lot split, both lots conform to the requirements of the underlying zone district. Any lot for which development is proposed will mitigate for affordable housing pursuant to Section 26.100.050(A)(2)(c). ~ ,,~ Response: As shown on the attached subdivision exemption plat, the applicant proposes to create two (2) lots with this lot split. Each lot will contain 39,023 sq. ft. Both lots will, therefore, be conforming-sized lots in the R-30 zone district, which has a minimum lot size of 30,000 sq. ft. for a single-family residence. "'" The reference to Section 26.100.0S0(A)(2)(c) is incorrect. That reference is to a section of the former Aspen Land Use Regulations. The correct reference for that former section is to Section 26.470.070 B. of the Land Use Code, which provides a GMQS exemption to replace the existing single-family house on the property with a new residence. It requires the applicant to provide an accessory dwelling unit, or pay the applicable affordable housing impact fee, or record a resident-occupancy deed restriction for the single-family dwelling. The applicant agrees to provide an accessory dwelling unit with the replacement residence. .A - - Because this property is not a townsite lot, the Applicant is not eligible for a lot split growth management exemption (Section 26.470.070 I of the Code) for the second lot. The growth management exemption for the second lot is instead being created through the use of a "transferrable development right". A copy of this right is provided as Exhibit #6. A copy of a letter from the City Attorney verifying the legality of this right is attached as Exhibit #7. .- r"; " ., As stated in the recitals of the TDR, these rights were created as part of a land use approval that preserved the Smuggler Mobile Home Park as affordable housing. These rights are exempt from the allotment procedures of the Growth Management Quota System and require no additional mitigation by the Applicant in order to develop a single-family unit on the other lot. Nonetheless, the Applicant is voluntarily offering to provide an accessory dwelling unit on that lot as well, thereby exceeding the requirements of the land Use Code. ...... ,... !~ Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Witz Property Page 5 1"< - .~. I"" .... .,..... r-- ..... ~ - r- ,... ...... ,...;0;. "'" ....... , p '" c. The lot under consideration, or any part thereof, was not previously the subject of a subdivision exemption under the provisions of this Chapter or a "lot split" exemption pursuant to Section 26.470.040(C)(1)(a). Response: The lot has not previously been subject to a subdivision exemption or a lot split. d. A subdivision plat which meets the terms of this Chapter, and conforms to the requirements of this Title, is submitted and recorded in the office of the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder after approval, indicating that no further subdivision may be granted for these lots nor will additional units be built without receipt of applicable approvals pursuant to this Chapter and growth management allocation pursuant to Chapter 26.470. Response: A proposed subdivision plat, conforming to the requirements of the Land Use Code, has been submitted with this application. The Applicant anticipates working closely with the City staff during the review of this application to perfect this plat before it is recorded. The plat contains the required note regarding further subdivision and growth allocations. e. The subdivision exemption agreement and plat shall be recorded in the office of the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder. Failure on the part of the applicant to record the plat within one hundred eighty (180) days following approval by the City Council shall render the plat invalid and reconsideration of the plat by the City of Aspen will be required for a showing of good cause. Response: The Applicant will record the plat and any necessary agreement within the specified time frame. Page 6 \- Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Wit. P.roperty !"" ,....... ~ II. 8040 GREENLlNE REVIEW ..... This property is located generally between 8,000' and 8,040' in elevation. Since 8040 Greenline Review applies to any development that occurs above the 8040 elevation, or is within 150' below this elevation, the proposal is subject to this review procedure. However, it should be pointed out that no development is planned above the 8040 elevation. All development proposed for this property will be located below that line. I'" 1"'" The standards for 8040 Greenline Review are found in Section 26.440.030 of the Aspen Land Use Code. These standards address the suitability of the subject property for development, and also address the compatibility of the proposed development with the mountain terrain in which the property is located. !"'" ~' It is premature at this time, however, for the Applicant to present complete plans for the development of the two single-family houses. The Applicant anticipates that such plans will be prepared subsequent to the annexation and subdivision of the property. Therefore, the Applicant. has completed those engineering and geotechnical studies necessary to demonstrate that the subject property is suitable for development and, accordingly, should be subdivided. The Applicant agrees that prior to the actual development of either lot, the owner of that lot will have to demonstrate that the details of the proposed development (such as house massing and site grading) will comply with the 8040 review standards. .,.... ~ - The Applicant has, however, prepared a site plan illustrating how the property is proposed to be developed. The site plan depicts the building envelopes proposed for each lot. These building envelopes have been drawn so as to exceed the setbacks of the City's R-30 zone district (and to at least meet the setbacks of the County's R-30 zone district), as follows: ,... "'" City County Code Code Lot A Lot B Front Yard Setback 25' 30' 25'* 25'* Side Yard Setback (East) 10' 15' 20' 20' Side Yard Setback (West) 10' 15' 15' 20' Rear Yard Setback 15' 30' 30' 30' - .... * Front yard setback is actually 55' from the edge of the property, but is listed as 25', as measured from the edge of the 30' utility and access easement. ...... The footprint of the houses will fit well within the proposed building envelopes, so the actual setbacks for the homes will likely exceed some of these setbacks by an even greater degree. "". , .-., Considering this information, following are the Applicant's responses to the standards of the Land Use Code applicable to 8040 Greenline Review. f"'o, - Application for Lot Split Bnd 8040 Greenline Review for Witz Property Page 7 .- -- .r-, 1. The parcel 011 which the proposed developmellt is to be located is suitable for developmellt, cOllSiderillg its slope, ground stability characteristics, including mine subsidellce and the possibility of mud flow, rock falls and avalanche dangers. If the parcel is found to contain hazardous or toxic soils, the applicant shall stabilize and revegetate the soils or, where necessary, cause them to be removed from the site to a location acceptable to the City. ,.... ..... - , Response: A geological report has been prepared by Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. The report is attached as Exhibit #8. It states that this is a moderately sloping property, with slopes in the range of 15% to 20%. It goes on to conclude that "Development of the property as proposed should be feasible based on geotechnical conditions. There are no geologic hazards that would make the proposed development infeasible." .fii,a ..... An Engineering report for the property has been prepared by Schmueser Gordon Meyer and is attached as Exhibit #9. In the report, Jay Hammond recommends that grading should slope away from the homes, and upslope swales should be created to direct upslope drainage around and away from the structures. The Applicant agrees to comply with these recommendations. .... 2. The proposed. development does not have a significant adverse affect on the natural watershed, runoff, drainage, soil erosion or have cOllSequent effects on water pollution. ,...... f- Response: There are no significant drainages that cross the property, nor does off-site runoff have a significant impact on this property. Therefore, the Applicant's primary objective with respect to drainage is to ensure that post-development drainage does not exceed that found in the pre-development condition. The Engineering Report provides a summary of the storm drainage improvements planned, to ensure the development will not have an adverse affect on the natural watershed or cause water pollution. The report proposes that a new--r- drywell(s) sized for the 100 year event be installed to detain a ny additional runoff generatedU by the development. Roof or deck areas and gutter systems would be directed to the drywell(s) for return of pre-development historic flows to the aquifer. Perimeter footer drains and any underslab drains would be routed to daylight. ..... , ..... - 3. The proposed developmellt does not have a significant adverse affect on the air quality ill the City. -)iiii: ~- Response: The development should not have an adverse effect on air quality. The proposed residences will comply with all applicable City regulations regarding wood burning devices. Since there is already one single-family unit on the property, the net increase in travel from the development should be in the range of only 5-10 trips per day. Moreover, by deed restricting an existing dwelling to affordable housing in Aspen, close to where people work and recreate, this project will help to eliminate trips that otherwise would have occurred on Highway 82 as a result of commuting. ~ ,"""" Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Witz Property Page 8 .- \ ~ - ~ \~) ....... .,... ... . - . ,~ . - . ,...... - 4. The design and location of any proposed development, road or trail is compatible with the terrain on the parcel on which the proposed development is to be located. 5. Any grading will minimize, to the extent practicable, disturbance to the terrain, vegetation and natural features. 6. The placement and clustering of structures will minimize the need for roads, limit cutting and grading, maintain open space and preserve the mountain as a scenic resource. Response: A detailed grading plan has not yet been prepared for the site. The Applicant agrees that a grading plan for the development of each lot will be submitted before a building permit application is issued for either house. The Applicant also agrees to follow the recommendations contained in the Engineering Report and the Geotechnical Report. This includes the following concepts: The driveways into the lots will be designed to follow the contours on the property to the maximum extent feasible, to limit the amount of cutting and filling necessary to build the accessways. Foundation walls will act as retaining walls on the site slopes. In general, cut and fill slopes steeper than about 1.5:1 (horizontal to vertical) will be retained. On-site granular soils (excluding oversized rock) should be suitable for use as structural fill and for retaining wall backfill. Excavated material from the foundation areas will be used to construct the driveway into the site or will be removed from the site for disposal. . Disturbed areas will be re-vegetated as soon as possible after construction. Although it is premature to present a complete landscape plan for the property, the Applicant has prepared an entry enhancement plan, illustrating how the looped driveway cuts that provide access to the existing residence will be re-vegetated. It shows that a considerable number of Spruce and Aspen trees will be planted, and ground cover will be installed, making for a much more attractive entrance into this neighborhood. - .... - . Plans for re-vegetating areas disturbed by construction of the new driveways and the proposed houses will be submitted in conjunction with the review of the house designs. .~. 7. """'" Building height and bulk will be minimized and the structure will be designed to blend into the open character of the mountain. Page 9 - \ Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Witz Property ~ - F'"'. Response: Architectural elevations have not yet been prepared for either house. The Applicant agrees that proposed elevations for each house will be submitted to the City before a building permit application can be issued for either lot. These elevations will demonstrate that each proposed house will comply with this standard. ~ .;,;;;;.;,;; 8. Sufficient water pressure and other utilities are available to service the proPos~4_ development. ~~~ I*" Response: The availability of a sufficient water supply and other utilities to serve the two houses is addressed in the Engineering report. The report describes the Applicant's plans for utilities for the two houses. ,.;,;.;. ... Water will be supplied to the lots from the new water main that was recently installed in North Spruce Street. To obtain service from this line, the Applicant will submit a request to amend the main extension agreement established with the City. There is ample capacity in this line to serve this property, and connection to this line would provide a reliable supply to both houses for domestic and for fire fighting purposes. Four fire hydrants were installed with the new water lines, one of which is less than 200' from the proposed new homesite. - ~ If the City decides not to amend the agreement, then the Applicant would be able to acquire an in-house only well permit for the new house. The existing well would continue to supply the reconstructed house. Fire protection would be available from the nearby fire hydrants. ;..- Sewage disposal service is available from the sewer main extension in North Spruce Street that was constructed at the same time as the water line, and the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District has adequate capacity to serve these homes. - ~ Electric service will be provided by Holy Cross Energy. The electric lines that serve this area were improved and placed underground by Holy Cross when the new water and sewer mains were installed, and will be more than adequate to serve these homes. 9. Adequate roads are available to serve the proposed development and said roads can be properly maintained. 10. Adequate ingress and egress is available to the proposed development so as to ensure adequate access for fire protection and snow removal equipment. "" .... Response: Access to the property is provided by North Spruce Street. Spruce Street is a public right-of-way to the north end of Centennial, approximately 400' from the subject property. Beyond that point, it intersects with a private driveway, known as North Spruce Street. Easements for this private access vary from 20' to 30' in width. The actual width of the pavement within the length of the easement varies from 12' to 18', wide enough to allow two vehicles to pass each other. -- ,.... Application for Lot Split and 8040 Greenline Review for Witz Property Page 10 ,... ,...., I~, - The Engineering Report states that North Spruce Street "essentially functions as a driveway accessing a total of six homes either in place or under construction at the present time". The report concludes that the minimum 20' easement that is in place is sufficient for this level of development. The Fire Department has reviewed other recent developments that have occurred along this street and has concluded that adequate access is available for emergency protection to be accomplished. - '!- - The proposed residences will each require a new driveway cut to replace the "loop drive" that provides access to the existing residence. Since the loop drive has two cuts off of North Spruce Street, the new driveways will not change the number of cuts that are present. The existing loop drive will be closed, and it will be restored and re-vegetated by the Applicant, as shown on the attached entry enhancement plan. ....... , As shown on the proposed subdivision plat, the proposed driveways have been located to offer an improved alignment and significantly improved sight distances as compared to the entry to the existing loop drive. The new driveways will take up much less of the property frontage along Spruce Street, allowing for a more natural appearance to the entry area. - 11. Any trail on the parcel designated on the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan: Parks/Recreation/Open Space/TraiIs Plan map is dedicated for public use. r- Response: The referenced Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan map has been superseded by the pedestrian and bikeway maps in the Aspen Area Co=unity Plan. Those maps do not show a trail in the vicinity of the subject property that would be required to be dedicated. ,... It should be pointed out, however, that the prior owner of this property granted an easement to Pitkin County for a connection to the Hunter Creek trail, which has since been built and is widely used. This connection appears on the improvements survey and subdivision plat. IiiiiiO v. VESTED RIGHTS - Pursuant to Section 26.52.080 of the Aspen Municipal Code, the Applicant hereby requests that this development be granted vested rights status. ,..,.. VI. CONCLUSION ,... In summary, the Applicant has submitted all of the materials requested during the pre- application conference. We have responded to the applicable standards of the Aspen Land Use Code and have demonstrated our compliance with said standards.

T" "" P'.vU'=':: EXHIBIT #s . MEMORANDUi\I To: Housing Board From: Lee Novak Subject Little Vic #2 Date: April 5, 2000 Background: Camilla Auger is proposing to deed restrict a single unit in the Little Victorian complex located at the comer of 6111 and Main Street. Ms. Auger is nOI required to deed restrict this unit for mitigation. She is offering the unit as an incentive to the City to annex another property she is developing. The unit is approximately 575 square feet. It is currently a one bedroom loft configuration. A bedroom is located at the loft level, but there is nO door between it and the first flOor. Currently, the access to the loft is with a much improved ladder. The applicant has promised to install a stair case so that the unit meets building code. The unit is otherwise in good shape. The applicant has promised to repair a leak in the skylight and some wiring in the bathroom. In addition, Ms. Auger has promised to update the appliances and the bath fan. The exterior of the building was painted in 1996 and the roof was installed in 1989. The carpet is in excellent shape. The heating system is a centrally located electrical heater. While not a very efficient system, it seems to be in working order. Ms. Auger would like to deed restrict the un.it to a category 3 price of SI20.800. She is not requesting future mitigation credits for this deed restriction. The remainder of the units in the project are not deed restricted. Typically this raises a caution for the Housing Office because of potentially high dues that effect the afford ability of the unit. This unit currently has very low monthly dues -$50 per month- and the ROA has a reserve of $3,000 for capital expenditures. Recommendation: Staff recommend that the Housing Board provide preliminary direction to staff to accept a deed restriction of this unit at a Category 2 price of $78,200, or at maximum $100,000. While staff are typically wary of single units located in fr~ market projects, this unit looks to be an excellent opportunity for a starter unit. Staff believe the unit will be in acceptable condition to include in the inventory after the basic work mentioned above. Staff do not feel comfortable pricing the unit at a Category 3 price. The square footage of the unit is below the category 2 minjmum for a one bedroom unit (600 square feet). While it is not often that a person would deed restrict a unit when not required to under the code, staff do not believe that this generosity or the unit's amenities warrant a sales price above $100,000. A structural engineer or certified building inspector should be retained to review the unit for structural problems before a deed restriction is accepted. .... REAL ESTATE SAlES .

Additional information about the complex and the apartment: .... 1. The building was constructed in 1965-66. 2. There are 8 units in the building .... .... 3. Four of the units are owned by one owner. He rents all those units longterm. Because 50 % of the units are controlled by one owner, his local representative, who actually developed the complex in the mid 60's, handles most of the building's affairs. He charges minimal fees with an idea of keeping all the building expenses as low as possible. He hires a local bookkeeper to handle all the dues collections, profit and loss statements and bill paying. .... ~ 4. Unit 2 has 576 s.f., as per the assessor. The property taxes are $555.08 per year. The unit is shielded from the ambient noise of Main St. by unit no. 1. It is a great location, walk:ing.distance to downtown and right on all the bus routes: in-town, West End shuttle, down valley and skier shuttles. There is a very pleasant landscaped yard, which is directly in front of unit 2, giving it the feeling of a private yard for Unit 2. .... .... 5. The building was designed in a Victorian style, in keeping with the historic theme of Main St. .... 6. The various minor repairs pointed out to the Buyer by the Housing Officer will be accomplished by the Buyer and Seller. The access to the loft bedroom will be changed by the Buyer or Seller to a proper staircase before being offered as an affordable unit. Though all the appliances are in excellent working order, the Buyer, if required, will replace all appliances with brand new machines before being sold to a qualified local buyer. .... .... .... .... ... ... ;v~try Vill 00 &""- il.o.. --i f!!f!ili!f &-- ~-(l lim& RENTALS & REAL ESTATE ... --......

Subject: Geotechnical Conditions for 8040 Greenline Review, Proposed Residential Development, 705 North Spruce Street (Witz Property) Pitkin County, Colorado. ,.... Dear Ms. Auger: ~, As requested, we met with Raymond Auger and Alan Richman at the site on March 27, 2000 and made a reconnaissance of the proposed development area. The purpose of our work was to evaluate the geotechnical conditions with respect to the proposed development based on our observations and experience in the area. The work was performed in accordance with our agreement for professional services to you dated February 13, 1998. ... - - Proposed Development: The development will consist of subdividing the existing property into two residential units. We have been provided a plan with the existing site conditions. A two story wood frame residence currently occupies the property. The residence will be razed as part of the proposed development. One residential unit is proposed to be constructed in the area of the existing residence and the other one further uphill to the northeast of the existing residence. The units will be serviced by municipal water and sewer systems. The development area is proposed to be annexed into the City of Aspen. - .... i"'" Geotechnical Conditions: The subsoils in the development area consist of glacial moraine containing poorly sorted gravel, cobble and boulder deposits in a silty sand matrix (Bryant, 1971). Boulders up to several feet in size are embedded in the deposits and are exposed throughout the property. The ground surface on the property slopes down to the southwest at grades between about 15 % and 20 %. A shallow ephemeral (dry) drainage is located along the northwest side of the property. The head of the drainage appears to terminate at the northern corner of the property. The hillside in the development area appears to have had a relatively stable, recent geologic history. Vegetation consists of cottonwood trees, sagebrush, grass and weeds. Some patches of snow were on the site at the time of our site reconnaissance. ~ - .... ,.. Conclusions and Recommendations: Development of the property as proposed should be feasible based on geotechnical conditions. There are no geologic hazards that would make the proposed development infeasible. The natural slopes should be considered by the site specific building and driveway development. In general, cut and fill slopes steeper than about 1'/2 horizontal to 1 vertical should be retained. The on-site granular soils, excluding oversized rock, should be suitable for nse as structural fill and as .... ... - 1"-'. Camilla Auger April 20, 2000 Page 2 - retaining wall backfill. Spread footings placed on the natural soils should be suitable for building support. Site specific subsoil studies should be conducted for individual building designs. We should review the proposed grading and drainage plans as part of the preliminary design of the development. - ",...;- The site is located within the Smuggler Mountain mining district and may be underlain by old mine works. Evidence of surface mining activity was not observed on the property. The risk of future surface subsidence due to underground mine works in the Aspen area is generally accepted as low, but the property should not be considered totally risk free. .... .... Limitations: This review was conducted according to generally accepted geotechnical engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty either expressed or implied. Our findings are based on a site reconnaissance and review of published geologic maps. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for preliminary project evaluations. We are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our information. Additional geotechnical engineering smdies should be conducted as project planning and design proceeds. - ~ - If there are any questions or if we may be of further assistance, please let us know.

Enaineerina Report ~ Dear Alan: """"'" This letter comprises an engineering report regarding relevant aspects of the proposed Lot Split and 8040 Submission to build an additional single family home on property owned by the Witz Property, LLC at 705 North Spruce Street in Aspen, Colorado. The owner's are submitting an application to the City of Aspen for annexation, Lot Split and 8040 approval to replace the existing single family home on the property and construct one additional single-family residence within a designated. building envelope on a newly created lot. I have endeavored herein to provide comments appropriate to the engineering-related criteria of the City of Aspen land use code, particularly Section 26.435.030 8040 Greenline review. ,... - - Introduction - The Witz property is a metes and bounds parcel located on North Spruce Street, northwest of the Williams Ranch Subdivision, in unincorporated Pitkin County. The site is currently zoned R-30 in the County. The proposed development plan will result in a replacement of the existing home and one new single-family residence located within a designated building envelope. This report focuses on the infrastructure, traffic and drainage requirements of the proposed development. - - All utility service will be from North Spruce Street, where new water and sewer mains as well as an upgraded electric line are in place and other utilities are currently under ground serving the existing residences in the area. The recently completed construction to extend water and sewer into the area was designed to meet the minimum sizing requirements of the City of Aspen Water Department and Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District to serve existing homes but will also be adequate to serve these additional residences. The property is accessed from a private drive (known as North Spruce Street) that intersects with Spruce Street and is subject to easements for use by the area property owners. I have spoken with representatives of the primary utilities and inspected the site with regard to the availability of all secondary utilities. - -- - - - 118 West 6th, Suite 200' Glenwood Springs, Colorado' (970) 945.1004 ,... .... April 6, 2000 Mr. Alan Richman Page 2 I would offer the following comments relative to the City's 8040 submission requirements; ,... ,.... Water Supplv "'""" The Witz site is adjacent to a City water main that was recently completed in North Spruce Street pursuant to Ordinance #41, Series of 1997. Water main construction included a tie-in to the water line above the pump station on Silverlode Drive in the Williams Ranch Subdivision then routing a new main west in Silverlode to an easement between Lots 3 and 4 of the Williams Ranch. The water line runs north, in an easement between Lots 3 and 4 of Williams Ranch, then follows the upper extension of North Spruce Street to the Uchtenstein (formerly Dr. Richard Phillips) residence at the end of the cul-de-sac. At the point that the water line enters the North Spruce Street easement within the Porath property, it is adjacent to the Witz property. fIiiiio;, ,... ,... For the foreseeable future, the pump station in Williams Ranch and related water mains will remain the maintenance and operational responsibility of an association comprising those properties served by the lines above the pump station. Given that the area is served by a pump station facility, water pressure and fire flows will be more than adequate. Despite the fact that the proposed new homesite on the Witz property is near the 8040 elevation, it will be the lowest property served by the North Spruce Street waterline extension. As-built easements would be granted to the City of Aspen Water Department if the lines are conveyed to the City for maintenance purposes. ,... - ,... . Fire flow represents an important aspect of extending water service into the North Spruce Street area. The design added a total of four fire hydrants on the main, including a hydrant near the proposed additional homesite on the Witz parcel where the water line enters the North Spruce Street easement, significantly improving water supply for fire protection throughout the area. There is also an existing fire hydrant on the gravity pressure zone below the pump station (No. 959) that provides additional fire protection to the existing, lower homesite. This hydrant is at the intersection of Spruce Street and North Spruce Street, about 300 feet from the existing home. - ,. ,.. The plan for the Witz residences is to service each home individually from its own service tap to the street with a buried valve box accessible from the outside of the structure. Service to the residences will require the payment of tap fees, abandonment of the well serving the existing residence on the site, a reimbursement for the main construction as well as an amendment to the main extension agreement for the North Spruce Street line to accommodate the additional units. - ,.,;. In the event an amendment to the main extension agreement were not approved by the City, it should be possible to acquire an in-house only well permit for the new site. The existing home is served by a domestic well and wells have been drilled successfully on all properties above the Witz property in the past several years. A well providing sufficient flow for domestic use should be feasible within the site if it becomes necessary. Fire flow would still be available from the fire hydrants installed on the main extension. .- - - SCHMUESERGORDON MEYER. INC. - - April 6, 2000 Mr. Alan Richman Page 3 - !"" Sanitarv Sewer ... The existing homesite on the Witz parcel is served by the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District (ACSD) by a service line to Spruce Street. The project site for the new home on the upper portion of the property is also adjacent to an approved sanitary sewer main extension in North Spruce that was constructed simultaneously with the water line. ACSD System Superintendent Tom Bracewell indicates that service is available to the Witz project via connection to the new sewer line in the private street. The new homesite may be able to be served with a gravity service connection to the main. Sewer service to a replacement ofthe current home may require a pumped service line to the new main. ... ... ... Service from the ACSD would require payment of applicable tap fees to the District including a tap fee surcharge toward improvements to an existing collection line through the Hunter Creek condominium complex. Sewer service, like the water service in this area, will also require a reimbursement for the cost of the main construction. The agreement to extend the sewer main into the North Spruce Street area should be unaffected. ... - Electric Service ... The North Spruce Street area is currently served with electric primary by the Holy Cross Electric Association, Inc., the rural electric cooperative that serves areas outside downtown Aspen. I've met and spoken in the past with Field Engineer Jeff Franke of Holy Cross Electric regarding the availability of service in this area. The existing home on the Witz site is, of course, already served and electric service is available from Holy Cross for the additional residence on the Witz property. In performing my field inspections, I note that a new transformer has been installed for the Porath residence just east of the Witz property and the proposed new homesite. Improvements to the electric primary system in the area were completed in coordination with the construction of the new water and sewer main extensions and should be more than adequate to serve the residence proposed under the Witz 8040 application. - !"" ... Miscellaneous Utilities ... .. Telephone, gas and cable TV lines are also in place into the area buried in the North Spruce Street corridor. Service is available from each of these utilities to the proposed Witz residences. ,""" Fire Protection ... As indicated in the water service section above, fire hydrants were included in the water main extension design to serve the existing residences in the area. Four hydrants are in place ,... SCHMUESER GORDON MEYER. INC. .... .... .... April 6, 2000 Mr. Alan Richman Page 4 including at the point where the main enters North Spruce Street, at the first switchback near the Lewitz and Auger driveways (above the proposed Witz homesite), at the second switchback near the Timroth driveway and at the top cul-de-sac near the Lichtenstein home. These hydrants will also be adequate to serve the proposed residence. The hydrant at the point where the water main enters North Spruce Street is located about 180 feet from the new homesite. The project site is just under a mile from the Aspen Fire District's station on Hopkins Avenue and should be within a 5 minute response time. Fire equipment access to the Witz site is good since the property is only a short distance up the North Spruce Street extension. ,- ~ - .... Access and Traffic ImDacts (f- Access to the two single-family homes on the Witz property will be from private drives that will intersect North Spruce Street. Spruce Street is a public right-of-way to the north end of the Centennial Condominiums, approximately 400 feet from the project site. Beyond that point, it intersects with a private access (what is known as North Spruce Street) within easements varying between 20 and 30 feet in width. Most of the North Spruce street segment functions as a one- lane roadway with a pavement width of between 12 and 18 feet. The platform is sufficiently wide, particularly in the curves, to allow two vehicles to pass one another. .... .... .... North Spruce Street above the Witz property essentially functions as a driveway accessing a total of six homes either in place or under construction at the present time. I would suggest that, for a private driveway easement not intended for dedication to the public use, fire and emergency access is the principal concern and the minimum 20 foot easement is appropriate and applicable. ,... From a traffic generation standpoint, Pitkin County, in their Pitkin County Road Management and Maintenance Plan as adopted in 1997, recommends using the trip generation figures from the publication Trip Generation by the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE). The ITE publication, 5th Edition, Section 210 offers a trip generation figure for Single Family Detached Housing of 9.55 trip ends per unit per day. The County code also permits a trip generation reduction for a single- family home of 1.5 trips per day for homes within a half mile of a transit stop. ,... .... .... For purposes of traffic generation analysis, I have viewed the replacement of the existing Witz residence as a net "zero" impact as a replacement of an existing home. Based on the ITE trip generation figures and reducing the trip generation associated with the proposed Witz residence for being within one half mile of transit, the proposal could be expected to generate just 8.05 trip ends per day. Of this figure, 10% or less than 1 vehicle per day could be expected to impact area streets during peak hours in the morning and evening time periods. I have not been able to locate any specific recent traffic count information for the Spruce Street area near the Witz project site. I would suggest that, in any case, the proposed Witz residence represents minimal impacts to the area streets both in terms of total vehicles per day and in terms of peak hour since I have not observed that the Spruce Street corridor is suffering from any capacity problems evidenced by congestion conditions at any time of the day. ... .... - ...... SCHMUESER GORDON MEYER, INC. ,.,. ,.. ,.... April 6, 2000 Mr. Alan Richman Page 5 The Witz residences will require new driveway cuts to replace the "loop" drive of the existing residence with new driveways for each of the two homes. By replacing the loop drive of the current residence with individual driveways for each of two homes, the number of driveways off of North Spruce Street on this property will be unchanged. The proposed driveways will also serve the two homes with accesses offering better alignment and sight distances than currently exist. The existing access drives will be restored and revegetated by the property owners. The Witz property residences will also provide for on-site parking spaces pursuant to City of Aspen Code requirements. - ~. - - Gradina and Storm Drainaae I""' The existing North Spruce Street extension does not have curb and gutter and appears to drain well based on a combination of borrow ditches, swales and culvert crossings. The existing drainage and grade conditions appear to disperse area drainage in such a manner that erosion is minimized and flows are not concentrated in any areas. Area soils are generally granular sandy gravels with extensive cobble and boulders such that infiltration into the site aquifer is good where storm runoff is in contact with the ground. - .... The applicant is not proposing to add curb and gutter where it does not currently exist. Adding curb and gutter in this area would serve to concentrate storm drainage in a manner that would be more difficult to disperse. The only new impervious surface associated with the Wilz residence project will be the new driveway and the new home, new entries and small parking areas. I""' ,.... It is proposed that a new drywell (or drywells) sized for the 1 OO-year event would be installed to detain any additional runoff generated by the new structure. Roof or deck areas and gutter systems would be directed to the drywell(s) for return of pre-development historic flows to the aquifer. Perimeter footer drains and any underslab drains (if required based on soil conditions encountered during excavation) should be routed to daylight. Footer drains should not be routed directly into the drywells due to the potential for storm flows to then back up into the footer and underslab areas. ,.... - i- Otherwise, the new residential structures of the Witz project would require only conventional design items to address drainage conditions. Adjacent grading should slope away from the structures and upslope swales should be created to direct upslope drainage around and away from the buildings. The existing drainage patterns and watershed characteristics will not be impacted as a result of the site design. The recommendations of a geotechnical consultant should be considered regarding soil conditions or geologic hazards that may effect the site. ~ .... From a grading standpoint, the proposed site plan should require minimal disturbance to the site. The single-family homes are to be built onto the slopes on the site. Other than the immediate disturbance associated with the construction activity, minimal grading work is suggested for the - - SCHMUESER GORDON MEYER. INC. .... - April 6, 2000 Mr. Alan Richman Page 6 .... .... project. Foundation walls will act as retaining walls on the site slopes and no significant areas of cut or fill disturbance are proposed. Excavated material from the foundation areas will be used to construct the'driveway into the site or will be removed from the site for disposal. Minimal exposed cut and fill areas will also serve to minimize the potential for erosion impacts as a result of the construction. Disturbed areas will be revegetated as soon as possible after construction to prevent slope erosion following completion of the residence. ....., - I hope these comments are adequate for submission purposes for the Witz property Lot Split and 8040 application.
