A. Jordan, Director The Board of Zoning Adjustment Aspen, Colorado 81611 Gentlemen: This submission is being made to satisfy City of Aspen zoning requirements that approval of the Board of Adjustment must be obtained before an open-use recreation site (in this case, two standard tennis courts) may be constructed in an R-15 zone. Operating under the authority of Building Permit # 242-73, the Aspen Institute's contractor has been proceeding with construction for nearly two months. Approximately $8100 in construction costs have been incurred to date. Early this week, an interested citizen called to the attention of officials of the Aspen Institute and to the Chief Building Inspector of the City of Aspen the fact that a procedural error had been made. That is, approval of the Board of Adjustment had not been obtained for the construction of subject tennis courts before the building per- mit was issued and construction begun. After discussion with sev- eral parties, Aspen Institute officials directed the contractor to stop work until this matter was clarified. Since we had the building permit, we and our contractor have pro- ceeded in good faith and have expended considerable time and money in the project. Should it be halted permanently, we will suffer a significant financial los s. As a matter of fact, any appreciable loss in time before resumption of construction might result in erosion of our sub-grade which is presently ready for the asphalt overlay. Accordingly, we request that the Board consider our case at the earliest opportunity. Presumably, the case for constructing the courts was made in suf- ficient detail when the building permit was issued, so I will not elaborate on that part at this time. Neighboring property owners who mighthave an interest in, this, case include the following: ~ ,..,.t , James S. Adams Gordon H. Bell [Lloyd V. Shields J ZephJ. R. Hollenbec George J. M.
