NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
HPC supports Council approval of the Historic Landmark Lot Split and grants
Demolition and Setback Variances with the following conditions:
1. HPC recommends that Council approve a Historic Landmark Lot Split, dividing
the property into a 3,000 square foot lot and a 6,000 square foot lot. The applicant
has represented that, if approved by City Council, unused development rights will
from time to time, and as warranted by the TDR market, be converted to TDRs
and sold.
2. HPC approves demolition of the cabin, the shed along the alley and the carport.
These buildings may remain in place until the time that the applicant requests
issuance of TDR certificates for the floor area contained within these structures.
1
The more recent small shed crosses a property line and must be removed or
relocated within the property lines, in compliance with setback requirements,
before the plat is filed.
3. HPC grants a 2' east sideyard setback reduction of the cabin on the 3,000 square
foot lot. HPC grants a 5' rear yard setback reduction for the alley structures on
the 6,000 square foot lot and a 5' east sideyard setback reduction for the garage
and carport.
4. The development approvals granted herein shall constitute a site-specific
development plan vested for a period of three (3) years from the date of issuance
of a development order. However, any failure to abide by any of the terms and
conditions attendant to this approval shall result in the forfeiture of said vested
property rights. Unless otherwise exempted or extended, failure to properly record
all plats and agreements required to be recorded, as specified herein, within 180
days of the effective date of the development order shall also result in the
forfeiture of said vested property rights and shall render the development order
void within the meaning of Section 26.104.050 (Void permits). Zoning that is not
part of the approved site-specific development plan shall not result in the creation
of a vested property right.
No later than fourteen (14) days following final approval of all requisite reviews
necessary to obtain a development order as set forth in this Ordinance, the City
Clerk shall cause to be published in a newspaper of general circulation within the
jurisdictional boundaries of the City of Aspen, a notice advising the general public
of the approval of a site specific development plan and creation of a vested property
right pursuant to this Title. Such notice shall be substantially in the following form:
Notice is hereby given to the general public of the approval of a site specific
development plan, and the creation of a vested property right, valid for a period of
three (3) years, pursuant to the Land Use Code of the City of Aspen and Title 24,
Article 68, Colorado Revised Statutes, pertaining to the following described
property: 604 West Main Street.
Nothing in this approval shall exempt the development order from subsequent
reviews and approvals required by this approval of the general rules, regulations
and ordinances or the City of Aspen provided that such reviews and approvals are
not inconsistent with this approval.
The approval granted hereby shall be subject to all rights of referendum and
judicial review; the period of time permitted by law for the exercise of such rights
shall not begin to run until the date of publication of the notice of final
development approval as required under Section 26.304.070(A). The rights of
referendum shall be limited as set forth in the Colorado Constitution and the
Aspen Home Rule Charter.
