If the variance is granted, the proposed roof deck would come into the Wheeler view plane. All of the view planes in Aspen were estab- lished for a very good reason and should not be challenged by non-resident developers. I trust the Board of Adjustment will remain sensitive to the feelings of most Aspen citizens and reject this variance proposal. Sincerely, ~ Bert Bidwell, President Bertt Bidwell Investment Corp. The Mountain Plaza Lots Q, R, S, Block 89 Aspen -....,. . Memo To: Aspen Board of Adjustment From: Heinz and Eliane Wolf, owner Cooper street Pier Bldg. Re: Case # 85 - 11 (see other side) Dear chairman, members of the board, I am the owner of the Cooper street Pier Bldg., at 508 E.Cooper, across the street from the Independence Bldg. and object to the requested variance. I had an access stairway above my roof and the Aspen Bldg. Department requested me to voluntarely remove it, as it could be seen from a distance. I removed it, even so it did not protrude into the height limitation. We still have access to the roof which one needs fc~ service reasons. I am sure the Independence Bldg. can do with the same, unless they want to use the roof commercially. I am convinced this is their intent, because the request is also for a roof deck. I do not believe it is a fair request as I don't think they have ShO,ffi any necessity or undue hardship to make an exception to the existing height limitations. Instead I believe, that their proposal is exploitive, and should be rejected. Faithfully yours, / 1/,0'" ',.,,/ NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING CASE '85-16 BEFORE THE CITY OF ASPEN BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS AFFECTED BY THE REQUESTED ZONING OR USE VARIANCE DESCRIBED BELCM: Pursuant to the Official Code of Aspen of June 25, 1962, as amended, a public hearing will be held in the Council Room, City Hall, Aspen, Colorado, (or at such other place as the meeting may be then adjourned) to consider an application filed with the said Board of Adjustment requesting authority for variance from the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 24, Official Code of Aspen.
