Cooper Avenue/Hwy 82 ZONING: R-15, Moderate Density Residential & Lodge Preservation Overlay LOT SIZE: 53,578 square feet REVIEW PROCEDURE: Conditional Use: The Planning and Zoning Commission shall by resolution approve, approve with conditions, or deny a development application for a conditional use, after recommendation by the Community Development Director. FAR: 20,100 square feet. SUMMARY: The Lodge Preservation Overlay Zone District allows Affordable Housing for lodge employees as a permitted use and for non - lodge employees as a Conditional Use. This application requests approval to operate the Beaumont Inn's 31 lodge rooms for affordable housing for hospital employees. a STAFF COMMENTS: J & B Hotels (Applicant), represented by the Aspen Valley Hospital (AVH) District, Bill Brunworth and Don Gillow, has applied for conditional use approval to operate the Beaumont Inn as an affordable housing complex for hospital employees. AVH is under contract to purchase the property; closing is set for later this month. The Lodge Preservation Overlay Zone District on the property allows affordable housing for lodge employees as a permitted use and for non -employees as a conditional use. The Beaumont Inn consists of 31 lodge rooms and four (4) deed restricted affordable housing units with a total of six (6) bedrooms in four (4) 2-story buildings and one (1) 1- story building. Most of the Inn's buildings were constructed in the mid- 1980s, and a triplex consisting of three (3) affordable housing units was constructed in the early/mid-1990s. The Beaumont Inn is an ideal site for affordable housing; it is located within walking and biking distance to downtown, a RFTA bus stop is located almost immediately across the street, and the surrounding properties are primarily residential. The site includes approximately 33- 47 on -site parking spaces (depending on how and where the spaces are designated), a swimming pool, hot tub, common dining room, and commercial kitchen. The application states that Aspen Valley Hospital plans to convert the 31 lodge units into 1- and 2-bedroom affordable housing units. The number of units may be decreased to create the 2- bedroom affordable housing units. Parking may be an important issue to neighbors. The Land Use Code requires 1 parking space for each studio and 1-bedroom affordable housing unit, and 2 parking spaces for units with 2 or more bedrooms. The Land Use Code requires 0.7 spaces per bedroom for lodge units. Currently, there is one 3-bedroom affordable housing unit and 3 studio residential units; the 31 lodge units are studio or 1-bedroom configurations. The -a- following table shows the required number of parking spaces for the 31 lodge units and 4 affordable housing units: Table 1: Existing Conditions Number of Number of Parking Spaces Type of Unit Bedrooms Units Required Affordable 3 1 2 Housing Affordable 1 3 3 Housing Lode 1 31 21.7 TOTAL 34 26.7 Table 2: Proposed Conditions (decreasing the number of units through the conversion of 1-bedroom units to 2-bedroom units would result in the same number of required parkings aces for residential units). Number of Number of Parking Spaces Type of Unit Bedrooms Units Required Affordable 3 1 2 Housing Affordable 1 34 34 Housing TOTAL 36 Therefore, with 33-47 on -site parking spaces, the conditional use for affordable housing would comply with the Code's requirement for on -site parking if at least 36 on -site parking spaces are designated. Staff recommends that this number of on -site parking spaces be made a condition of approval. Staff believes that residents may be more likely to walk or bike to and around town or take the bus rather than their cars because they recognize the difficulty of parking around town, "know the ropes" of transit logistics, and the economic value of taking the bus. The Beaumont's parking area may serve more as "car storage" than as a parking lot because of the Inn's close proximity to downtown and the RFTA bus stop. In fall 1999, City Council approved a new lodge preservation program. A key component of the program was the revamping of the Lodge Preservation Overlay Zone District. The purpose of this zone district, as stated in the Land Use Code, "is to provide for and protect small lodge uses on properties historically used for lodge accommodations, to permit redevelopment of these properties to -3- accommodate lodge and affordable housing uses, to provide uses accessory and normally associated with lodge and affordable housing development, to encourage development which is compatible with the neighborhood and respective of the manner in which the property has historically operated, and to provide an incentive for upgrading existing lodges on -site or onto adjacent properties." The program's intent is to preserve and expand the community's existing lodges, and to make affordable housing the only other acceptable use of a lodge. The conditional use allows the lodge to serve as rental affordable housing. The lodge has not been condominiumized; therefore, the units cannot be sold separately as residential units. The application states that Aspen Valley Hospital plans to develop a master plan for the property. The plan would include an application for a change in use, subdivision, planned unit development, etc. to allow the hospital to subdivide and condominiumize the property to sell the individual units to hospital employees as deed restricted affordable housing. Such an application would nearly mirror the application and land use approvals for the former Ullr Lodge, now Ullr Commons. Staff is concerned about the impact of the recent Colorado Supreme Court decision on the Telluride case on this conditional use application. Specifically, Staff is concerned that the rental caps proposed may be unenforceable, as decided by the Telluride case. Consequently, if the Applicant does not apply for and receive change in use and subdivision approvals for the property to sell the units as deed restricted affordable housing, there is no guarantee the units will remain affordable. Staff recommends three (3) conditions of approval to ensure that the units remain affordable should the units remain rental. One condition is that the owner shall grant the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority the right of first refusal to purchase the property. This condition would expire upon the termination of the conditional use — or once the units are deed restricted affordable housing units and sold to qualified Pitkin County employees. A second condition is that the owner shall grant the Housing Authority an interest in the property, which allows the Housing Authority to enforce the rental restrictions for each unit. -4- 0 • A third condition is that the final deed restrictions to set rental rates for the units be approved by the Housing Board at a public meeting. Additional conditions of approval in the draft resolution are designed to bring the units into conformance with City codes for residential use in addition to lodge use. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the conditional use with conditions. RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to approve Resolution No.�Series of 2000, approving the Aspen Valley Hospital's conditional use to use the Beaumont Inn for affordable housing, with conditions, finding that all of the review criteria have been met." ATTACHMENTS: Exhibit A — Review Criteria and Staff Findings Exhibit B — Application -s- L • REVIEW CRITERIA & STAFF FINDINGS EXHIBIT A BEAUMONT CONDITIONAL USE 26.425.040 Standards applicable to all conditional uses. When considering a development application for a conditional use, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall consider whether all of the following standards are met, as applicable. A. The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives and standards of the Aspen Area Community Plan, with the intent of the zone district in which it is proposed to be located, and complies with all other applicable requirements of this Title; and Staff Finding Staff believes this application is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives and standards of the AACP, intent of the zone districts (R-15 and Lodge Preservation Overlay), and all other applicable requirements of the Land Use Code. The AACP's Housing element and Interim Aspen Area Citizen Housing Plan support this proposal. One Housing Policy states: "The burden of providing affordable housing should not lie solely on the shoulders of the Housing Authority. The local business community, non-profit entities, and local developers have much expertise and definite interest in affordable housing and should be encouraged to contribute." This application is a case in point of the private sector creating affordable housing for its employees. A related Housing Goal is to "Encourage greater participation by the private sector in developing affordable housing." Again, this application achieves this goal. The Interim Aspen Area Citizen Housing Plan, incorporated into the AACP, includes a list of criteria that all affordable housing projects should strive to meet. These include: 1) location inside the Community Growth Boundary; 2) Proximity to available public mass transit; 3) "Containable development" — compatible with neighborhood and does not promote sprawl. a. Contiguous to existing public facilities and infrastructure. b. Amendable to transit, bike and pedestrian oriented design. -6- c. Visual compatibility with surrounding area. d. Optimizes the site's development potential. e. Contribute to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Goals. f. Quality of life: range of income groups, mixed uses, access to open space. g. Quality of design and construction. h. Utilize and conserve natural features. i. Fiscal impact of site compared to other sites. Although these criteria are particularly relevant to new and re -developments, Staff believes that all of the relevant criteria to this project are met. Specifically, the project is inside the Community Growth Boundary, served by all public utilities and facilities, is within walking and biking distance to town and a transit stop, and contributes to the Housing Goals. The only conflict with the AACP is in the Economic Sustainability Philosophy section, which states that lodges contribute to the community's economic base. Allowing the Beaumont Inn to operate as a rental affordable housing complex is a trade off between two competing AACP goals — economic sustainability and affordable housing — for the same site. The purpose of the R-15, Moderate Density Residential Zone District, is "to provide for long term residential purposes with customary accessory uses." The purpose of the Lodge Preservation Overlay Zone District, "is to provide for and protect small lodge uses on properties historically used for lodge accommodations, to permit redevelopment of these properties to accommodate lodge and affordable housing uses, to provide uses accessory and normally associated with lodge and affordable housing development, to encourage development which is compatible with the neighborhood and respective of the manner in which the property has historically operated, and to provide an incentive for upgrading existing lodges on -site or onto adjacent properties." Staff believes the project meets the intent of the zone districts — the long- term residential use of the R-15 Zone District, and the higher density affordable housing use of the Lodge Preservation Overlay Zone District. Staff believes this criterion is met. B. The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture of complimentary uses and activities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development; and -7- Staff Finding Staff believes the conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of the immediate vicinity of the subject parcel and surrounding land uses. The property is surrounded by residential uses, including the higher density Lacet Court Townhouses and Alpine Cottages. Staff believes this condition is met. C. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed conditional use minimizes adverse effects, including visual impacts, impacts on pedestrian and vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery, noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties; and Staff Finding The operating characteristics are expected to be similar to those associated with the lodge. No visual impacts are planned or expected as part of this application. Pedestrian and vehicular circulation on Highway 82 may increase as Aspen Valley Hospital employees occupy the units year around compared to the seasonal occupancy of a lodge. The employees may make fewer trips per day than a tourist during the "on -season" because their daily trips might typically include to and from work and/or school on weekdays, compared to several trips by a tourist. However, during the off-season when fewer tourists occupy the lodge rooms, the lodge residents would likely make more trips than the facility currently generates as a lodge. Residents may also be more likely to walk or bike to and around town or take the bus rather than their cars because they recognize the difficulty of parking around town, "know the ropes" of transit logistics, and the economic value of taking the bus. The Beaumont's parking area may serve more as "car storage" than as a parking lot because of the close proximity to downtown and RFTA bus stop. Trash pick-up is provided on -site and will be on a regular basis. Service delivery is expected to be significantly lower than that for the lodge because tourists often require more services than residents. Noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties should be no greater than that experienced by the lodge operations, and perhaps less because residents — in this case professional workers — typically create different impacts than tourists and have a greater interest in their property and neighborhood. Staff believes this criterion is met. -s- C� • D. There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable water, sewer, solid waste, parks, police, fire protection, emergency medical services, hospital and medical services, drainage systems, and schools; and Staff Finding All appropriate utility agencies and the City Engineer were referenced on this application and reported the ability to serve this project. Staff believes this criterion is met. E. The applicant commits to supply affordable housing to meet the incremental need for increased employees generated by the conditional use. Staff Finding The conditional use mitigates itself. -9- RESOLUTION NO. �QQ r,eary-d1 d doc (SERIES OF 2000) A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ASPEN PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION APPROVING THE ASPEN VALLEY HOSPITAL CONDITIONAL USE FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AT THE BEAUMONT INN, IN THE LODGE PRESERVATION OVERLAY ZONE DISTRICT, AT 1301 EAST COOPER AVENUE, CITY OF ASPEN, PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO.

Galena Aspen, CO 81611 Rc: Aspen Valley Hospital/ Beaumont Lodge All Dear Nick: John Keleher Frank Loushin Bruce Matherly, Mgr The short term effects to the District of converting the use of the lodge to employee housing will be minimal. Our understanding is that the units would be used through this winter as lodge units as they have been in the past. The effects to our District will be felt once the units are converted to employee housing units through the addition of kitchens. At that point, the flows and loads from the "lodge" will change substantially. We will require tap permits at that time and request that fees be paid prior to the issuance of building. At that point, we will also need to look at main line extensions, collection system agreement, and downstream constraints. All of these concerns should be addressed at the site master planning stage. Please call if you have any questions. Sincerely, Bruce Matherly District Manager 565 N.

Some portions of the 8530 square foot main building was constructed in 1886 with additions in 1940. There are six bedrooms of deed restricted affordable housing on the site. Prior to 1996 the property was a hospitality facility operating as the Crestahous Lodge. Previous approvals allowed 20 additonal motel units to be added to the site in 1984 and a remodeling of existing units in September of 1996. Proposal: The applicant is requesting a conditional use to allow the lodge facilities to be used for the purpose of providing affordable housing for the employees of the applicant. The applicant plans to design a master plan for the long term use of the site for the above stated purpose but initially intends to convert 20 lodge units constructed in 1984 to some mix of studio, one bedroom or two bedroom employee rental units.

A flat fee or deposit is collected for land use applications based on the type of application submitted. Referral fees for other City departments reviewing the application will also be collected when necessary. One check including the deposit for Planning and referral agency fees must be submitted with each land use application, made payable to the Aspen/Pitkin Community Development Department. Applications will not be accepted for processing without the required application fee. A flat fee is collected by Community Development for Administrative Approvals which normally take a minimal and predictable amount of staff time to process. The fee is not refundable. A deposit is collected by Community Development when more extensive staff review is required, as hours are likely to vary substantially from one application to another. Actual staff time spent will be charged against the deposit. Several different staff members may charge their time spent on the case in addition to the case planner. Staff time is logged to the case and staff can provide a summary report of hours spent at the applicant's request. After the deposit has been expended, the applicant will be billed monthly based on actual staff hours. Applicants may accrue and be billed additional expenses for a planner's time spent on the case following any hearing or approvals, up until the applicant applies for a building permit. Current billings must be paid within 30 days or processing of the application will be suspended. If an applicant has previously failed to pay application fees as required, no new or additional applications will be accepted for processing until the outstanding fees are paid. In no case will Building Permits oe issued until all costs associated with case processing have been paid. When the case planner determines that the case is completed (whether approved or not approved), the case is considered closed and any remaining balance from the deposit will be refunded to the applicant. Applications which require a deposit must include an Agreement for Payment of Development Application Fees. The Agreement establishes the applicant as being responsible for payment of all costs associated with processing the application. The Agreement must be signed by the party responsible for payment and submitted with the application and fee in order for a land use case to be opened. • The current complete fee schedule for land use applications is listed on the reverse side.

Order No. 00027449 Diicloaures (YSDD) Rev. 10/99 ASPEN/PITKIN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Agreement for Payment of City of Aspen Develonment Application Fees CITY OF ASPEN (hereinafter CITY) and ASPEN VALLEY HOSPITAL DISTRICT (hereinafter APPLICANT) AGREE AS FOLLOWS: 1. APPLICANT has submitted to CITY an application for Conditional Use of the Beaumont Inn for Affordable Housing (hereinafter, THE PROJECT). 2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that City of Aspen Ordinance No. 45 (Series of 1999) establishes a fee structure for Land Use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a condition precedent to a determination of application completeness. 3. APPLICANT and CITY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed project, it is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the application. APPLICANT and CITY further agree that it is in the interest of the parties that APPLICANT make payment of an initial deposit and to thereafter permit additional costs to be billed to APPLICANT on a monthly basis. APPLICANT agrees additional costs may accrue following their hearings and/or approvals. APPLICANT agrees he will be benefited by retaining greater cash liquidity and will make additional payments upon notification by the CITY when they are necessary as costs are incurred. CITY agrees it will be benefited through the greater certainty of recovering its full costs to process APPLICANT'S application. 4. CITY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for CITY staff to complete processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or City Council to enable the Planning Commission and/or City Council to make legally required findings for project consideration, unless current billings are paid in full prior to decision. 5. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the CITY's waiver of its right to collect full fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay an initial deposit in the amount of $650.00 which is for 2.46 hours of Community Development staff time, and if actual recorded costs exceed the initial deposit, APPLICANT shall pay additional monthly billings to CITY to reimburse the CITY for the processing of the application mentioned above, including post approval review. Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date. APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay such accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing, and in no case will building permits be issued until all costs associated with case processing have been paid.

The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture of complimentary uses and ac-tivities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development; and C. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed conditional use minimizes adverse effects, includ-ing visual impacts, impacts on pedes-trian and vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery, noise, vibrations and odor on surroun-ding properties; and D. There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable water, sewer, solid waste, parks, police, fire protec-tion, emergency medical services, hospital and medical services, drainage systems, and schools; and E. The applicant commits to supply affordable housing to meet the incremental need for increased employees generated by the conditional use; and F. The proposed conditional use complies with all addi-tional standards imposed on it by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and by all other applicable require-ments of this chapter. Public Hearing Notice Requirements Three forms of notice are required by the Aspen Land Use Regulations: publication in the newspaper, posting of the property, and mailing to surrounding landowners. You can determine whether your application requires notice, and the type of notice it requires, from Table 1, which is attached to this summary. Following is a summary of the notice requirements, including identification of who is responsible for completing the notice. 1. Publication - Publication of notice in a paper of general circulation in the City of Aspen is to be done at least fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing. The legal notice will be written by the Community Development Department and we will place the notice in the paper within the appropriate deadline. 2. Posting - Posting of a sign in a conspicuous place on the property is to be done ten (10) days prior to the hearing. It is the applicant's responsibility to obtain a copy of the sign from the Community Development Department, to fill it in correctly and to bring proof to the hearing that posting took place (use attached affidavit). 3. Mailing - Mailing of notice is to be made to all owners of property within 300 feet of the subject development parcel by the applicant. It is the applicant's responsibility to obtain a copy of the notice from the Community Development Department, to mail it according to the following standards, and to bring proof to the hearing that the mailing took place (use attached affidavit). Standards for notice shall be as follows: 1. Any federal agency, state, county or municipal government service district or quasi governmental agency that owns property within 300 feet of the subject property must be mailed notice fifteen (15) days prior to the hearing. 2. All other landowners within 300 feet of the subject property must be mailed notice ten (10) days prior to the hearing, unless notice is given by hand delivery, in which case it must be sent five (5) days prior to the hearing. 3. Subdivision applications only also require notice by registered mail to Review Standards: Development of Conditional Use A. The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives and standards of the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan, and with the intent of the of the Zone District in which it is proposed to be located; Although the zoning of the Beaumont Inn is R-15, and affordable housing is not allowed in that zone as either a permitted or a conditional use, the property does have an LPO designation which allows affordable housing as a conditional use. Allowing the conditional use of this property to provide affordable housing for the employees of Aspen Valley Hospital meets the policy of encouraging the local business community and non- profit entities to participate in the burden of providing affordable housing. It also meets the goal of encouraging greater participation by the private sector in developing affordable housing and meets the housing criteria derived from the Interim Pitkin County Citizen Housing Plan. The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture of complimentary uses and activities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development; The Beaumont Inn borders the Lacet Court Townhomes on the west property line, which includes category and RO units. Also, the former Alpine Lodge was redeveloped into the Alpine Cottages 70/30 project in 1999, so there is a significant component of affordable housing in the immediate vicinity. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed conditional use minimizes adverse effects, including visual impacts, impacts on pedestrian and vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery, noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties; The conditional use to allow affordable housing should be consistent with the current lodge use. Visual impacts should be no different than those which presently exist, pedestrian and vehicular circulation should not be noticeably different. Service delivery should be significantly decreased. Trash will be picked up on a timely basis. The applicant agrees to responsible for correcting any issues related to noise, vibrations or odors on surrounding neighbors. There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable water, sewer, solid waste, parks, police, fire protection, emergency medical services, hospital and medical services, drainage systems, and schools; The impacts on most of these services should not be significantly different than those of a lodge operation. Schools may be slightly impacted, however based on the tenant profile at Mountain Oaks and in the free market units that the hospital currently leases, that impact should be minimal. • A. The applicant commits to supple affordable housing to meet the incremental need for increased employees generated by the conditional use; N/A The proposed conditional use complies with all additional standards imposed on it by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and by all other applicable requirements of this chapter. The applicant believes that this project meets the above stated criteria. r - 1 0 0 ASPEN 0001, VALLEY Lr�r- HOSPITAL 0401 Castle Creek Road • Aspen, Colorado 81611 • 970/925-1120 October 2, 2000 Nick Lelack/Planner City of Aspen Planning & Zoning Department 130 S.

COUNTY OF PITKI,V, STATE OF COLORADO • • Existing Operational Characteristics of the Beaumont Inn The Beaumont Inr► is currently operating as a public lodging facility with average occupancy of four to five days per room for thirty one rooms. There are six bedrooms of category housing on site which are occupied by lodge staff. There is a dining room which is open for breakfast only. There is a pool and spa area for guests. The site provides approximately thirty- one parking spaces for guests and residents. Proposed Operation Characteristics of the Conditional Use of the Beaumont Inn Aspen Valley Hospital District proposes to use the thirty one lodge units and six bedrooms of category housing to provide affordable housing for its employees. This may include seasonal and long term occupancies and rental and possibly for sale units. No determination has yet been made as to the definite allocations and the hospital would like to secure flexibility for the mix of those uses in the future. No decision has been made as to whether the pool and spa are will remain for tenants. The hospital is not planning to operate the dining room facility. `SAVE LAxev iar nonl9 166013 .

AVH plans to use the facility for affordable housing for its employees. The property is zoned R-15, Moderate Density Residential, with a Lodge Preservation Overlay (LPO) Zone District. The LPO Zone District allows affordable housing for non -lodge employees as a Conditional Use. AVH is applying for a Conditional Use for this property to use it for affordable housing while applying for land use approvals to convert the lodge to affordable housing, including rental and possibly for sale units. The converted lodge may or may not include a free-market component; in any event AVH does not plan to apply for a mix exceeding the 70-30 bedroom mix (70% AH, 30% free market). Land Use Code Section(s) to Address in Application: Section 26.425: Conditional Uses Review by: Planning and Zoning Commission qd Public Hearing: Yes. Public Notice: Mailing to all properties within 300 feet of the parcel 15 days prior to the hearing and posting on the property 15 \ days before the public hearing.

Our home, 1375 Riverside Drive, is the second house in from the Riverside Drive corner with Highway 82. We have watched the Beaumont, formerly the Crestahaus, since it was owned by Guido and then by the Balke family to the recent rapid succession of owners. We are specifically against the rezoning of the Beaumont site for the following reasons: 1. Parking: The 51 units described in the Aspen Times are not necessarily accompanied by parking spaces for 51 vehicles on the property site without looking like a very stuffed and cluttered parking lot. I have never seen, nor do I see how conceptionally 51 vehicles could be parked on the site. And, if such could be engineered, the visual appearance would be more like Vail, not Aspen. 2. Traffic and air pollution from being opposite side of Aspen from the hospital: The property is located on the opposite side of the Aspen from Aspen Valley Hospital and there are closer properties near to the Castle Creek Road site of the hospital. This will mean for infinity, that 51 vehicles will be driving through Aspen twice a day going back and forth to work. Not only does unnecessarily increase traffic congestion_ on the artery of Main Street, but it increases air pollution from the vehicles in the core of the city. I would like an environmental impact statement from Tom Dunlop. Chief of Environmental Health for Aspen/Pitkin County concerning the environmental impact of this cross town traffic ad infinitum. Approve a site closer to the hospital. 3. Disproportionate number of units compared to recently hired employee base: The necessity of the large number of 51 units compared to the total employee size of Aspen Valley Hospital is questionable. In other words the number of units is greatly disproportionate to the number of employees needing such housing. Most of the employees at Aspen Valley Hospital have been working there for decades, as witnessed by the annual service awards posted in the Aspen Times and are long term valley 'A • • Page 2 Tom and Carol Kurt Re: Rezoning of Beaumont Inn to employee housing residents with existing employee housing. This raises questions of overneed and whether there might be underling motives of speculation among those promoting this purchase. 4. Potential litigation from class action of nearby homeowners including us, of the Riverside subdivision for loss of property values: Recently David Middleton of the Elk Mountain Lodge brought suit against P&Z and the County Commissioners for loss of property value from a nearby patented mining claim where he has a home site approved. This was considered a valid point and blockage to his development was withdrawn. Property tax paying home values on Riverside Drive are high, with three home sales in the last year in excess of $3 million. Creating the eyesore of a 51 unit parking lot employee housing site adjacent to the entrance of Riverside Drive will detract from property values in the neighborhood, resulting in a loss to the homeowners. 5. Loss of property values in the Riverside subdivision will create a loss of property taxes for the Cjty of Aspen the Aspen School District and Pitkin County: The property value loss just alluded to will have a backlash effect on the real estate tax base for the city, school district and the county. 6. Loss of skier lodge units for Aspen Mountain: Much has been written in the Aspen Times recently about the large number of small and more affordable lodges that have been sold off in Aspen in the last few years decreasing the skier lodge base. This undermines the entire future of Aspen as an attractive ski resort to be decreasing available lodging units for visitors, whether winter or summer. In addition, it decreases affordable lodge units, leaving only the more expensive Iarge hotels. Finally, it destroys the character of Aspen which has relied upon a community image that has included small lodges, such as the St. Moritz, Skiers Chalet, Holland House and others. For the future of Aspen and Aspen Mountain, this needs to be stopped! Now!!! Therefore we strongly discourage the rezoning of the Beaumont Inn into employee housing. Simultaneously, we encourage alternatives that would preserve the Beaumont as a lodge, based upon all the reasons described. S erely, Tom Ku Thomas L.

The board, which had been vacillating about the purchase for more than a month, agreed to pay $4.83 million for the prop- erty, which had been on the market for a reported price of $5.1 million. "The financials don't work," stated board member Chuck Torinus, who had been one of the stalwart opponents of the purchase on grounds of fiscal responsibil- ity. 10 is an investment the hospital is make , and I'm not sure the hospital can handle it. I'm vitally concerned about the financial risk." But, he declared, "I'm going to change my vote tonight and vote `yes."' He said he is just as concerned about the hospital's ability to hire and keep good workers and added, "This is not going to be easy. Maybe it's the right thing to do and the right time to do it." Other board members followed suit, agreeing that the deal is risky but needed. Hospital administrator Randy Middle- brook said that during negotiations with the owners of the small lodge, located on the east side of town, the hospital had at one point offered to pay $4.95 million. But when the second of two hospital - ordered appraisals set the inn's value at $4.83 million, the owners agreed to sell for that price, Middlebrook told the hospi- tal board at its Monday night meeting. AVH Chief Financial Officer Verna Bartlett said the hospital currently pays some $295,000 per year in housing subsi- dies for 43 units. The Beaumont deal, she said, will raise that to nearly $891,000 for 75 units. "We're not possibly going to be able to satisfy all the demand [for affordable housing]," said board member Tom Grif- fiths. "But we're going to keep looking." Several staffers, department heads and board members spoke at length about the hospital's need to step up and provide affordable housing if it ever expects to recruit and retain qualified, well -trained employees. Middlebrook noted that the hospital had tried about a year ago to buy another of Aspen's old lodges, the U11r, but that the deal fell through. The Ullr has since been converted to an affordable housing project owned by a collection of local businesses and rented to those businesses' employees. Although the hospital board's plan at this point is to turn the Beaumont into affordable housing, it was noted at the board meeting that the final decision has not been made. After voting on the motion, board chair Meg Haynes made a public plea for others thinking of building or otherwise creating large-scale affordable housing projects in the future to "give the hospital some con- sideration" as a potential partner. Middlebrook noted that another non- profit organization, the Aspen Music Fes- tival and School, has indicated an interest in possibly sharing the Beaumont with the hospital. Bartlett said the hospital's housing needs drop in the summer months and that renting to music students or teachers dur- ing the music festival's season might keep some of the Beaumont's 32 beds from going empty. uesday, 2000 Ski trial begins for Vail Mtn. collision By Robert Weller awareness was not, unfortunately, From The Associated Press as it is now," he said.

"I don't think you'd see many people on the U.S. Olympic Team going at that speed in those condi- tions," said Allen, who has skied at Vail for 37 years. Cobb's family sued Vail Resorts and won a settlement of an undis- closed amount. Hall is charged with reckless manslaughter, possession of alco- hol by a minor and possession of marijuana.

I have spoken to several officers, and have added my own observations/thoughts. He and I spoke today and he asked me to send you my impression of the impact. Historically, that section of E. Hwy. 82 has always been an area were commuters speed into and out of town. The Police Department for the last several years has concentrated speed compliance efforts in that area utilizing marked patrol cars equipped with Radar devices, or parking a Radar Speed Display trailer on the highway just east of The Beaumont Inn. We feel that these efforts have reduced the speed problem, but have not totally eliminated the issue. When the Inn was a hotel operation, the tourist and their vehicles really didn't add a visible traffic problem to the area; not every room had a car belonging to it's guests. I would speculate though that when the AVH employees move in there will be a very noticeable increase in the numbers of vehicles parked there and entering/exiting the lot onto the highway. As you probably know, the entrance into their lot is at the top of a blind, elevated curve. This anticipated increase in traffic entering onto the highway presents more possibilities for broadside accidents. In speaking to several officers and reviewing accident data for that very specific location there doesn't seem to currently be an accident problem, but I am still concerned because of possible increased traffic entering from the lot. I would suggest that you request the City Engineering office review the current traffic signage in the area, with an emphasis on will the current signs properly serve the anticipated increased traffic from the Inn. Because the roadway is a State Highway, the Colorado Department of Highways may also need to be involved. To summarize, I am glad that more affordable housing is becoming available to the local work force. I would recommend that some thought be given to signage and also_ to educating the new occupants about the possible hazards the roadway presents. If you need anything else, please call me at X5245.

The AVH board, which has not yet committed to the purchase, is expected to make a decision at its Oct. 16 meeting. The real estate deal is scheduled to be finalized that same evening, according to Bill Brunworth, AVH project manager. The Beaumont,. a 31-unit lodge on Aspen's east side, has been listed for sale for $5.1 million for more than a year, according to co-owner Jeff Stafford. Brunworth declined to reveal the amount AVE offered for the property, which it has placed under contract, but said it was less than the list price. The conversion of the Beaumont to employee housing would make the lodge the latest in a long string of Aspen's old ski lodges that are housing workers instead of tourists_ It's a trend that has left some resort officials bemoaning the loss of Aspen's bed base. The Aspen Skiing Co. has lamented the loss of lodging in town as a contributing factor in. its 16-percent drop in cus- tomer visits the past two ski seasons. ■ See Beaumont on page 14-A g --.,_ ova c y �g5r. 5 r° °?� J a 3a �� ° eofD o �- 5' o " r Sao ?3 -i5 `a f �'a�o f e°o .c�ot.�'°�❑!o-cvo.�� o�='ia��c�c = c �'n_� c'cFsc=n CD IS CD �os� c � c. •-• • v, r � ?� �o s9 � c- -n cameo E ( -L ra='<�' co'? qqF_ '?fin ^'^i CD -., CD OM i CJ O b: G '.a !• ?.0 C ap = X �• �. 5'' 55 �Cm=+ors Sv CD ws=Wf o�—EnvaEnoo-�D ?:�ioC I�3 ^,^"mac• _�_�� E!,,G7co� o a�� o n c CD ° c- � u fD y n B S c a c ., c o � =; � s x °-�e nLn M OF m p7 g oo ° c oo a " 5 � $ o V3 x = -, -. o 4�r1 a 2 a �' �� ' ^o a�� o c�.c°o ? :n g ' c `" cv 3� B c-° y c a=oom�°�' cro°q o�.°c� "R c�oCD > noo`r e � �' c� MW C' J • 0 Beaumont ■ corned from page 14A Hospital officials have dis- cussed a bond issue to fund pur- chase of the Beaumont, though it would initially be purchased out of cash reserves, according to Verna Bartlett, AVH chief finan- cial officer.

"This should not put us at any dangerous levels." Brunworth said AVH hopes housing can be provided at the Airport Business Center and at the Beaumont instead of on the hospital's campus.

The AVH board, which has not yet committed to the purchase, is expected to make a decision at its Oct. 16 meeting. The real estate deal is scheduled to be finalized that same evening, according to Bill Brunworth, AVH project manager. The Beaumont, a 31-unit lodge on Aspen's east side, has been listed for sale for $5.1 million for more than a year, according to co-owner Jeff Stafford. Brunworth declined to reveal the amount AVH offered for the property, which it has placed under contract, but said it was less than the list price. The conversion of .the Beaumont to employee housing would make the lodge the latest in a Iona string of Aspen's old ski lodges that are housing .workers instead of tourists- It's- a trend that has left some resort officials bemoaning the loss of Aspen's bed base: The Aspen Skiing Co. has lamented the loss of lodging in town as a contributing factor in its 16-percent drop in cus- tomer visits the past two ski seasons. ■ See Beaumont on page 24A ?_ •—_• < - 7 r GLZ�.• G — C — JC �1.'. r O . ff= �G _ — — .. �' �• — X = _ C Cb cD r: r� �, — _ �'; OC �;' v: — d -t c !: is Pr*— pe 7 J: _ �, r.

My residence is located at 1380 Riverside Drive, contiguous to the Beaumont Inn property. Please forward this letter to the Planning and Zoning Commission as my comment for the public hearing. I have no objections to Aspen Valley Hospital's application for conditional use for affordable housing on the Beaumont Inn site. In fact, I applaud the hospital for purchasing this site for affordable housing, although I am sorry to see the demise of another of Aspen's small lodges. There is a long history of applications for redevelopment of this site. Should the hospital apply for redevelopment in the future, contiguous and adjacent neighbors, including myself, will want to insure that previous conditions on this property are not overlooked nor simply waived. Sincerely, Helen Kalin Klanderud
