REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Chairperson Thompson opened the regular meeting of the Aspen Historic Preservation Commission at
4:55pm.
Commissioners in attendance: Jeffrey Halferty, Roger Moyer, Peter Fornell, Jodi Surfas, and Kara
Thompson.
Staff present:
Amy Simon, Planning Director
Kevin Rayes, Planner
Kate Johnson, Assistant City Attorney
Jim True, City Attorney
Ben Anderson, Community Development Deputy Director
Mike Sear, Deputy City Clerk
Risa Rushmore, Administrative Assistant
MINUTES: Mr. Halferty moved to approve the minutes from 10/26/22. Mr. Fornell seconded. Roll call
vote: Mr. Fornell, yes; Ms. Surfas, yes; Mr. Halferty, yes; Ms. Thompson, yes. 4-0, motion passes.
Mr. Moyer joined the meeting at 5:02pm.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: None.
COMMISSION MEMBER COMMENTS: Mr. Moyer said he had been in front of the affordable housing
project at 8th and Main and commented that since the historic resource and new addition are both
painted white, he didn’t think anyone could tell the difference. He thought it was an issue that they
should address at some point. He went on to comment that not having in-person meetings is ridiculous,
because of the virtual meeting issues that are being experienced. Next, he described his belief that their
job is not the applicant, it is the historic resource and the guidelines. Over his time on HPC he has
learned that they can say no.
Mr. Fornell said he respected Mr. Moyer’s comments but disagreed with his thought that their only job
is the historic resource. He said that on one of the hearing items before them tonight, of the five issues
before them to review, only two of them deal with the historic resource. They are making final decisions
on matters that have nothing to do with historic preservation. He wishes their only task was to review
historic assets, but they are also tasked with making final determinations on things like growth
management quotas, transportation & parking, and certificates of affordable housing. He questioned
why this is their job.
DISCLOSURE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST: Ms. Johnson referenced a public comment that was made
stating that Mr. Fornell should disqualify himself from one of tonight’s agenda items and that there was
some context around why they felt that way. She stated that she had talked with Mr. Fornell and
reviewed the public comment and didn’t believe that there was a conflict of interest in this case.
PROJECT MONITORING: Ms. Simon said she had worked with Ms. Thompson and Mr. Halferty on their
projects and would reach out to Mr. Moyer on another project soon.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
STAFF COMMENTS: None.
CERTIFICATE OF NO NEGATIVE EFFECT: None.
CALL UP REPORTS: Ms. Simon mentioned that two projects were called up to City Council. 434 E.
Cooper, the Restoration Hardware project as well as the 520 E. Cooper project, where Pitkin County Dry
Goods is located were both called up and Council upheld HPC’s decision on both projects.
Ms. Thompson asked if Council had any additional comments on the projects. Ms. Simon said Council
had brought up some concerns with the Restoration Hardware project being a large space only devoted
to one tenant and some councilors also showed interest in the dynamic glass that HPC influenced the
applicant to use.
SUBMIT PUBLIC NOTICE FOR AGENDA ITEMS: Ms. Johnson said that she reviewed public notice, and
that notice was provided per the code for both agenda items.
NEW BUSINESS:
413 E. Main St. – Minor Development Review and Commercial Design Review, PUBLIC HEARING
Applicant Presentation: Gavin Merlino – Kuulla Studio
Mr. Merlino started by mentioning that he had worked with Kate at Jing when they built a Covid
temporary structure. He said that she wanted to take some elements from that enclosed heated space
and try to make that work in a more aesthetic and functional way. He said it would be a two-part
process that would first see an open-air porch structure built that will give them a bit more protection
and privacy. This would consist of columns and a flat roof. They have a structural engineer on the project
to make help minimize the size of the beams to make sure the structure does not appear too massive.
The structure would also be completely within their property line. The second part of the project, which
would go before City Council, would be to add temporary walls to the porch during the cold weather
months. These would not be canvas or tent walls, but would be framed, properly insulated, and have
functioning windows. He mentioned that what they are proposing to HPC tonight is a smaller footprint
(192 square feet) than what was in the original packet. He then went over some of the differences. Mr.
Ben Rose said they had originally proposed a larger footprint, but after feedback from City staff that
they would be more inclined to favor a smaller footprint, they modified their proposal.
Mr. Fornell mentioned the encroachment of the planter boxes onto the City right of way that Mr.
Merlino had brought up and asked if they had been moved back onto their lot line. Mr. Merlino said that
was to be determined as they are not sure if they would be using them. Ms. Thompson said as she
understood it, that would be an encroachment easement that would be handled with the Engineering
Dept. if they decide to use them. Mr. Merlino agreed. Mr. Fornell then asked if the moving of the planter
boxes to within their lot line was a condition of approval, would they be ok with that, to which Mr. Rose
said yes.
Mr. Halferty asked if the windows represented were the sliders that were approved by HPC about a
month ago to which Mr. Merlino said yes.
Ms. Surfas asked if they had been installed yet to which Mr. Merlino said no, that they were waiting to
see what the overall construction outlook is.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Mr. Halferty then asked about the drainage plan for the structure. Mr. Merlino went over their initial
ideas to run downspouts to the existing drain on the property.
Staff Presentation: Amy Simon – Planning Director
Ms. Simon described the concerns that staff had raised about the design and size of the original
proposed porch and thanked Mr. Merlino for his quick redesign. She said they had referred the project
to the Engineering Department to make sure things like drainage were looked at. She suggested that
HPC not make the issue of the planter boxes a condition of approval as it is really Engineering’s purview.
She noted that the applicant would be approaching Council in a few weeks for a temporary use review
regarding the proposed solid walls to be installed in the colder months, but that that is not on the table
for HPC. She stated that staff is recommending approval of this restudy.
PUBLIC COMMENT: None.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Thompson thanked Mr. Merlino for his presentation and quick redesign and
said she was in support of this reduced footprint. No other board members had any issues with the
project.
MOTION: Ms. Thompson moved to approve the next resolution in the series with the revision to section
#1, stating that HPC hereby approves Minor Development and Commercial Design Review with the
reduced porch size as represented at the November 16th meeting. Mr. Halferty seconded. Roll call vote:
Mr. Fornell, yes; Mr. Moyer, yes; Ms. Surfas, yes; Mr. Halferty, yes; Ms. Thompson, yes. 5-0: All in favor,
motion passes.
205 W. Main St. – 205 W. Main Street- Historic Preservation Conceptual Major Development,
Relocation, Certificates of Affordable Housing Credits, Growth Management Quota
System, Special Review, Transportation and Parking Management – CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING
Applicant Presentation: Stan Clauson – Clauson Rawley Associates
Mr. Clauson started by introducing Ryan Sutton from Conservation Housing Partners and Brian Beazley
with DJArchitects. He went on to review the project background and the history of the historic resource,
highlighting the outstanding item to be addressed, being the Main St. façade at the 3rd floor.
He then went over the items that were previously accepted at the last meeting and had no changes.
These included the Major Development, Relocation, Growth Management, and Special Review for unit
size and percentage below grade. He then went over the items previously discussed and that have been
updated. These included the Certificates of Affordable Housing Credits, due to the reduction of the 3rd
floor, the Special Review for Floor Area, again due to the reduction of the 3rd floor, the Special review for
Parking mitigation, now to have cash-in-lieu to be paid and Conceptual Infrastructure Design. He then
reviewed the proposed updates to the FTE calculations and square footages which would result from
the two options being proposed to reduce the 3rd floor area. He stated that there were no changes to
the project location and again highlighted its proximity to the Molly Gibson lodge. Next, he went over
more of the history of the historic resource and its original relocation to its current location. He
mentioned that there are no changes to the site plan and parking.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Mr. Sutton went over the updates to the project which still included nine units but would result in a 1-
bedroom reduction. He continued by describing the two proposed options (A & B) that were in response
to HPC discussions at the last meeting. Option A moves the façade back 9 feet from the original proposal
and places it behind the ridgeline of the historic resource. It also reduces on er of the units from a 2
bedroom to a 1 bedroom and from 866sf to 641sf. He showed site plan and elevation comparisons of
this option to the original proposal. Option B moves the façade back 14 feet 6 inches from the original
proposal and places it well behind the ridgeline of the historic resource. This option also reduces the
unit from a 2 bedroom to a 1 bedroom and from 866sf to 561sf. He again showed site plan and elevation
comparisons of this option to the original proposal. Renderings of both options were then shown. Mr.
Clauson then showed a few pictures of precedent properties and made comparisons to this project. He
then presented a wide picture streetscape study showing building proportions, scale, height, and width
of the surrounding properties on Main St. Next a 3D model was presented and walk around views were
shown from both pedestrian and driver perspectives. Mr. Clauson recognized HPC’s goal of protecting
historic resources but noted that another goal is meeting the overall goals of the Aspen Area Community
Plan and City Council. One of these key goals being affordable housing. He reminded the members that
this project is intended to house employees of the Molly Gibson Lodge and meets all the parameters of
the zone district.
Ms. Thompson asked about the ridge height of the front element of the new structure on Main St. She
said that Mr. Halferty noted at the last meeting, and she agreed, that it would be more appropriate
pulled down to the ridge height of the historic resource and asked if there was a reason why they did
not make that change. Mr. Clauson said their understanding was that pulling the elevation of the third
floor back to the HC gridline was the agreed upon issue to be part of the restudy. He said reducing the
ridgeline to match the resource has no basis in the Land Use code or Historic Preservation guidelines
and would considerably reduce the amount of affordable housing.
Staff Presentation: Amy Simon - Planning Director, Kevin Rayes - Planner
Ms. Simon started by going over the history and relocation of the historic resource to its current location
from Hallam St. She showed a site plan going over the proposed relocation of the historic resource 10’
north and 10’ east on the lot. She also noted that while the house has sat on the lot in its current
location for a considerable amount of time and this location is well known, it was not originally built on
the property. Referencing the applicant’s presentation, she said that the relocation to the corner of the
lot would highlight the historic resource and it would be consistent with the placement of other homes
in the area. She highlighted one of the recommended conditions of approval, being that the applicant
would be asked to provide the standard $30,000 security deposit for relocation. She noted that the
applicant had requested that that be due at permit issuance instead of permit submittal and the
condition has been worded to say that. Next, she detailed the condition related to the restoration of the
historic resource related to the over-framed roof and non-historic additions to be removed. She also
went over conditions related to the front walkway, the proposed built-in BBQ in the shared courtyard,
the westernmost carport roof redesign, footprint of the proposed lightwell at the southwest corner of
the Victorian and the stormwater management plan. Next, she noted and went over the applicant’s
response to HPC’s direction and showed elevations and renderings detailing the two options the
applicant had presented. She said staff believed that either of the two options would be successful.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Mr. Rayes then went over the proposed Affordable Housing credits, growth management review and
transportation and parking review. He reviewed the unit distribution between the three buildings and
the breakdown of the proposed Affordable Housing Credits generated within the two new buildings and
the historic resource. These totaled 23.8 FTEs. He then showed a table of the unit square footages and
highlighted the two options the applicant had proposed for unit 6. Next, he went over the special review
criteria for sub-grade floor area and detailed the four units that have subgrade floor area. He then went
over the transportation and parking review details and reminded the HPC members that the applicant
has removed their original request to have the parking mitigation cash-in-lieu waived and will now pay
the mitigation through cash-in-lieu. The Floor Area Special Review was then detailed by Mr. Rayes for
the two options proposed by the applicant after their restudy. Option 1 would be a 1.01:1 ratio totaling
7,586 sq. ft. (86 sq. ft. above what’s allowed by right) and Option 2 would be a 1.02:1 ratio totaling
7,667 sq. ft. (167 sq. ft. above what’s allowed by right). The Floor Area Special Area Review criteria was
then detailed, and Mr. Rayes said that staff believes the criteria to be met. He then referenced some
language in the Aspen Area Community Plan regarding affordable housing. He finished by stating that
staff is recommending approval of the Conceptual Major Development, Relocation, Growth
Management, Certificates of Affordable Housing Credits, Transportation & Parking Management, Special
Review for Subgrade Living Area, and Special review for Floor Area.
Mr. Moyer asked Ms. Simon if this is being proposed to house employees of the Molly Gibson. Ms.
Simon said that that is the applicant’s intention and clarified that this project is not the applicant’s
mitigation for the hotel as they have provided affordable housing on-site for that project. This is a
voluntary development of affordable housing which they may use for their employees, but it could be
occupied by other residents.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Ms. Simon noted that there were a number of letters that were provided to HPC
members in the packet as well as a few that were emailed to them on Monday and Tuesday. Ms.
Thompson asked for confirmation for the HPC members that they had read the letters sent via email. All
members said they had read them.
Mr. Rayes displayed a letter from Mr. David Scruggs while Mr. Scruggs made his comments. Mr. Scruggs
mentioned that he was not opposed to affordable housing and thought it was good for this location but
had issue with the quantity of housing that is being proposed for the location. He disagreed with the
status of the application as described by the applicant. He said it was merely continued for restudy and
there were no limitations to HPC’s review. He stated that HPC’s obligation is to preserve and protect
historic assets. He stated that he thought this project should be denied and continued for restudy
because it doesn’t follow the guidelines of the HPC, APCHA or the Land Use Code. Next, he went over
the guidelines and why he thought they were not met. In closing he asked that they not sacrifice history
here and that the application be denied. He made a few suggestions for what the project should be
allowed, including a reduction of the number of units to 6 and not to relocate the historic resource.
Mr. David Dowler noted that he had submitted a letter to the HPC and after looking at the drawings he
did not see the new buildings as being respectful in scale to the historic resource. He agreed with Mr.
Scruggs that the project should be restudied, and the number of units be reduced.
Ms. Marsha Dowler requested more information related to the historic neighborhood behind the
proposed project. She said the applicant’s presentation defined the neighborhood from Main St. only
and the examples of deferential scale of similar projects were mainly in a commercial context. She
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
thought it would be valuable for the applicant to submit a study that would map the patterning of the
historic neighborhood immediately behind this project.
Mr. Clauson responded to public comment by pointing out that the neighborhood in question here is
the Main St. historic district. Those were the guidelines that were given to them and the guidelines they
are to follow. Any properties across the alley are in a totally different zone district and have different
parameters. They have met the parameters for the mixed-use district of Main St. which are significantly
different than the residential districts.
Mr. Moyer moved to extend the meeting. Ms. Thompson seconded. All in favor, motion passes.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Thompson noted that HPC has to balance the Code and Guidelines in front of
them, including the Aspen Area Community Plan and Historic Preservation Guidelines which are both
subjective things that they need to interpret. She also noted that there are many land Use Code
documents in front of them to review and approve, reminding members that they want to be fair to all
applicants in the same zone district that need to meet the same guidelines.
Ms. Thompson noted for the record that commissioner Barb Pitchford had joined the meeting at
6:55pm.
Ms. Thompson clarified that no formal approvals were made at the last meeting. Discussions were had
and recommendations were given to the applicant team. She then stated the items that were generally
agreed upon at the last meeting included the Certificates of Affordable Housing Credits, Transportation
and Parking Management and Relocation and asked if there were any additional comments. There were
none. She then brought up the Special Review items to allow for the maximum floor area increase and
sub-grade living area percentages and asked if there were any additional comments from board
members. There were none. She then moved on to Major Development and noted the discussions from
the last meeting related to guidelines 11.3 and 11.4 and opened it up for further discussion.
Mr. Moyer said he respected the 73 years of history of the house on the lot and was not opposed to the
relocation of the historic resource as long as it met the guidelines. He did not feel the relocation would
enhance the historic resource given the size of the proposal before them. He thought the mass and scale
is outrageous and totally overwhelms the historic resource and that open space and porosity are
virtually non-existent. He was not opposed to the affordable housing if it was reduced by 50% allowing
the mass and scale to be reduced. He went on to describe his thoughts related to the affordable housing
project at 8th and Main St. and that he believed the historic resource got lost. He felt if this project was
to be approved with both buildings painted white someone walking by would not have a clue that there
is a historic resource there. He was not prepared to approve this and would send it back and ask for a
major reduction in the new additions. He thought that if this was a private person and not employee
housing they would not be here.
Mr. Fornell said that they have accommodated the movement of homes for affordable housing and free
market development and the main reason was to afford the property owner the total use of their
property which is one reason he is ok with this relocation. A second reason is that it has been moved
once already. The third reason is that he is weighing community goals, one of which is the creation of
affordable housing. He disagreed with Mr. Moyer about the 8th and Main project and described some
differences between the historic resource and new additions on that property. He then stated he was
satisfied with the scale and proportion of option B as proposed by the applicant.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Ms. Surfas stated that she supports affordable housing and lives in high density housing, but that she
was not on HPC to approve and bend rules for affordable housing. She said that is what it feels like is
happening. She felt that they are being asked to bend the guidelines that have been created to protect
our town. She felt the mass and scale of the new structures are laughable. She said it needs to be
restudied and if a few units are lost, that’s what needs to be done.
Mr. Halferty thanked the applicant for the refinements and their proposal to build affordable housing.
He stated that HPC’s purview is to preserve not just the historic resource but also the historic lot and
district. He appreciated the revisions to the western structure but still thought it was too tall and too
massive. In relation to guidelines 11.3 and 11.4 it is still challenging to what it does to the historic
resource. He agreed with other members comments. He said that the reduction of one room in the
revisions was commendable, but that more could be taken off. He said it was mainly the size of the third
story that was challenging with the steep roofs and that the context shown from Main Street was
helpful, but at the same time it is the Mixed-Use district and not the Residential or Commercial Core. He
made additional comments about the open space, rain gardens and shading between the structures. He
stated that he could support this project as it has merits, but still thought it needs to get smaller to
better comply with guidelines 11.3 and 11.4.
Ms. Thompson asked Ms. Johnson if it would be appropriate for Ms. Pitchford to participate in the
discussion seeing that she was not present for the presentations. Ms. Johnson said it would not be
appropriate for her to vote on this project, but she could stay and listen to the rest of the discussion.
Ms. Thompson said she appreciated the revisions and agreed with Mr. Fornell about proposed option B.
She also thought that it was important that the second story ridgeline not go above the ridgeline of the
historic resource as it speaks to 11.4. She mentioned that she did not hear on the board a majority to
move forward and wanted to discuss how to give better feedback to the applicant. She agreed with Ms.
Surfas that this project is probably given special priority with staff given City Council’s direction
regarding affordable housing. She went over some suggestions she heard from members about reducing
that mass and scale and asked if there were any more suggestions.
Mr. Moyer said it was pretty simple. When he looked at the interior spaces, he thought they were
ridiculously small, and the storage was very limited. He suggested to reduce the number of rooms and
the overall project and then they would meet the guidelines. He said it would not work by just shuffling
a roof line or removing a room and again said just reduce the overall size.
Mr. Fornell commented on Mr. Moyer’s statement about the size of the units, stating that APCHA
provides for a reduction in their recommended unit size contingent on several factors that the applicant
has responded to. He said he has seen several affordable housing units that are smaller than what is
being proposed. He then asked Ms. Thompson to clarify which ridgeline she was referring to on the
addition that she thought should match the historic. Ms. Thompson said the ridgeline on the addition to
the west of the historic resource. Mr. Fornell then asked Ms. Surfas what rules she thought they were
bending. Ms. Surfas responded saying she thought they were being asked to not look at this in the same
way they look at a private residence because it’s affordable housing. Regarding guideline 11.3, she did
not know how someone could look at the new building and say it was in similar proportion or scale to
the historic resource. She said maybe it’s not bending the rules, but that they are being asked to have
double standards.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Ms. Thompson said she understood Ms. Surfas’ perspective but thought it was different in this case
since the new additions are not touching the resource where in private residences they are typically
touching and made more to look like one building. That is why she was not as opposed to the massing
here as the rest of the board.
Mr. Fornell asked the applicant about the unit that was set back and reduced from a two to a one
bedroom. He asked if it was reduced further to a studio, would that get them to the 1:1 floor area ratio.
Mr. Clauson said yes. Mr. Fornell then asked if the ridgeline height of the western addition could be
reduced without reducing the number of bedrooms and employees housed. Mr. Clauson said it would
amount to a one-foot reduction in ridgeline height and was doable without losing bedrooms. Mr.
Clauson also said they would very much like to see an approval at this meeting and then work with staff
and monitor and would accept a condition of approval to lower the ridgeline of the front portion. He
said they were not bending the rules, that they were working within the rules and that every parameter
has been met. He said there was a clear mandate in the Land Use Code to provide additional
opportunities for affordable housing that would not be afforded to a private residence. He stated that
there is a difference between the Main St. Historic and Mixed-Use districts and that of the Residential
district.
MOTION: Mr. Fornell motioned to approve the next resolution in the series with two conditions.
Condition #1, to use proposed option B and further reduce the size of that unit so long as that gets the
project underneath the 1:1 floor area ratio, removing that Special Review request. Condition #2, to
provide a design before Final review that moves the ridgeline height on the western addition down to at
least the height of the historic asset. Ms. Thompson seconded the motion.
Ms. Thompson asked Ms. Simon if the new structures were considered additions. Ms. Simon said no, it is
considered a new structure on a landmarked lot, so there are different guidelines that apply. It also
greatly influences the applicable guidelines when it comes to the compatibility between the two
buildings and the fact that the new structure is not touching the historic resource is a victory in the
historic preservation program. She said that they are certainly not bending the rules but understood
that people had different perspectives about it.
Mr. Halferty said the motion was close, but he could not support it.
Ms. Surfas said she would not support the motion and the project needed to be restudied. She also
wanted to state for the record that she did not think the applicant was bending the rules, but rather that
staff was asking them to finesse how things are done.
Mr. Moyer said that he made a mistake in supporting staff on the 8th and Main project and thought HPC
blew it in approving it. He did not want to see that happen here.
Roll call vote: Mr. Fornell, yes; Mr. Moyer, no; Ms. Surfas, no; Mr. Halferty, no; Ms. Thompson, yes. 2-3,
motion does not pass.
Mr. Fornell then motioned to continue to a subsequent meeting. Ms. Thompson seconded.
There was then some discussion trying to provide some direction to the applicant.
Mr. Fornell amended his motion to continue the meeting to December 14th. Ms. Thompson seconded.
REGULAR MEETING HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022
Roll call vote: Mr. Fornell, yes; Mr. Moyer, yes; Ms. Surfas, yes; Mr. Halferty, yes; Ms. Thompson, yes. 5-
0, motion passes.
ADJOURN: Ms. Thompson motioned to adjourn the regular meeting. Mr. Moyer seconded. All in favor;
motion passes.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Commission
FROM: Amy Simon, Planning Director
MEETING DATE: January 11, 2023
RE: 135 E. Cooper Avenue- Project Monitoring
BACKGROUND: As part of the on-going construction of an HPC approved project at 135 E.
Cooper, Staff and Project Monitor Kara Thompson were asked to review a proposed change to
the roof form on an addition being made to a historic outbuilding.
Staff and monitor do not support the amendment, so the applicant is approaching the board. HPC
may provide direction for staff and monitor to grant approval, or could decline to provide this
direction, leaving the applicant to build to the original design or pursue a Substantial Amendment,
which is a public hearing process before HPC that allows for appeal to City Council.
The guidelines for HPC to consider relating this addition to a historic structure are below.
10.3 Design a new addition such that one’s ability to interpret the historic character of
the primary building is maintained.
• A new addition must be compatible with the historic character of the primary building.
• An addition must be subordinate, deferential, modest, and secondary in comparison to the
architectural character of the primary building.
• An addition that imitates the primary building’s historic style is not allowed. For example,
a new faux Victorian detailed addition is inappropriate on an Aspen Victorian home.
• An addition that covers historically significant features is inappropriate.
• Proposals on corner lots require particular attention to creating compatibility.
10.6 Design a new addition to be recognized as a product of its own time.
• An addition shall be distinguishable from the historic building and still be visually
compatible with historic features.
• A change in setbacks of the addition from the historic building, a subtle change in material,
or a modern interpretation of a historic style are all techniques that may be considered to
help define a change from historic construction to new construction.
• Do not reference historic styles that have no basis in Aspen.
• Consider these three aspects of an addition; form, materials, and fenestration. An
addition must relate strongly to the historic resource in at least two of these elements.
Page 2 of 2
130 South Galena Street Aspen, CO 81611-1975 | P: 970.920.5197 | cityofaspen.com
Departing from the historic resource in one of these categories allows for creativity and a
contemporary design response.
• Note that on a corner lot, departing from the form of the historic resource may not be
allowed.
• There is a spectrum of appropriate solutions to distinguishing new from old portions of a
development. Some resources of particularly high significance or integrity may not be the
right instance for a contrasting addition.
10.8 Design an addition to be compatible in size and scale with the main building.
• An addition that is lower than, or similar to the height of the primary building, is preferred.
10.11 Roof forms shall be compatible with the historic building.
• A simple roof form that does not compete with the historic building is appropriate.
• On Aspen Victorian properties, a flat roof may only be used on an addition to a gable
roofed structure if the addition is entirely one story in height, or if the flat roofed areas are
limited, but the addition is primarily a pitched roof.
10.12 Design an addition to a historic structure that does not destroy or obscure
historically important architectural features.
• Loss or alteration of architectural details, cornices, and eavelines must be avoided.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff finds that the proposed change to the addition does not comply with
any of the guidelines above and makes the addition distracting and competitive with the simple
gable roofed outbuilding. It is overly ornate, not deferential in character, exceeds the height of
the eave that it is to remain tucked below and will increase visible light spill through a pitched
glass roof. Staff does not support approval.

RE: 135 East Cooper Avenue, insubstantial HP amendment
Dear Amy,
Please consider an amendment to the roof form of a non-historic addition at 135 East
Cooper Avenue to qualify as insubstantial for consideration by the Historic Preservation
Commission assigned monitor. Pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.415.070.e., there are
two processes to amend an HPC approved project – substantial and insubstantial. Review
criteria for insubstantial are addressed below.
(1)Insubstantial amendments.
a. Insubstantial amendments are minor modifications to HPC approved plans
that:
4. Change the shape, location or material of a building element or feature but
maintains the same quality and approximate appearance of that found in the
approved plans.
The applicant proposed to amend the roof form from a flat roof to a hip roof design.
The proposed hip roof design attaches under the eave of the restored accessory
historic building and relates better to the primary historic structure than the
approved flat roof. The primary structure has a hip roof which would be mirrored
in the proposed new roof form as shown below and attached as Exhibit 1.
Figure 1: Historic photograph of 135 E. Cooper showing hip roof. Figure 2: Proposed hip roof form.
The following HP Design Guidelines are met with the proposed roof form:
10.11 Roof forms shall be compatible with the historic building.
• A simple roof form that does not compete with the historic building is appropriate.
• On Aspen Victorian properties, a flat roof may only be used on an addition to a
gable roofed structure if the addition is entirely one story in height, or if the flat roofed
areas are limited, but the addition is primarily a pitched roof.
10.12 Design an addition to a historic structure that does not destroy or obscure
historically important architectural features.
• Loss or alteration of architectural details, cornices, and eavelines must be avoided.
The proposed hip roof relates to the primary historic resource and ties both historic
resources together as viewed from Aspen Street. Adding a hip roof addition to the
accessory historic resource highlights the simple form of the secondary building
through contrasting roof forms. Exhibit 1 includes a section to demonstrate there
is no interruption of the eave on the historic resource. The same glass sunroom
concept and the quality of the addition remain the same in the proposed
amendment, the only change is the roof form.
b. The Community Development Director may authorize insubstantial amendments
to approved plans.
We request to proceed as an insubstantial amendment to the HP monitor.
c. Monitoring committees established by the HPC, composed of up to two (2)
members of the Commission and the Historic Preservation Officer or assign, may
also authorize insubstantial amendments.
We request to proceed as an insubstantial amendment to the HP monitor.
Figure 3: Approved flat roof form. Figure 4: Approved rendering for 135 E. Cooper project showing flat roof addition to accessory historic building.
d. Decisions of the Community Development Director or monitoring committee are
binding. The Community Development Director or monitoring committee may
determine that the proposed changes qualify as a substantial amendment and
remand the matter to the HPC.
e. Disapproval of a request for an insubstantial amendment may be appealed to
the HPC to be considered in accordance with the procedures for substantial
amendments.
f. Approval of insubstantial amendments of plans will be reported to the HPC at
their regularly scheduled meetings.
Thank you for the opportunity to present this minor roof form change. We feel that it
improves the overall historic preservation project through a subtle roof form on a small
roughly 140 sf non-historic addition. Please reach out with any questions.
Kind Regards,
Sara Adams, AICP

No change
SUMMARY:
The owner of 216 W. Hyman Avenue requests establishment
of two Transferable Development Rights (TDRs).

Site Locator Map – 216 W. Hyman
Page 2 of 3
BACKGROUND:
216 W. Hyman Avenue is a 6,000 sf lot that contains a Victorian era miner’s cottage which has
been altered over time with an expansion on the east side, an enclosed front porch, a street-facing
garage and a basement/rear addition. These alterations occurred during the long-time ownership
of the property by Darcey and Ruth Brown, who also added some Bavarian influenced shutters
and color scheme to the home. The scale and some forms and detailing of the 19th century
structure remain and the property also represents early ski era architecture in the community.
A detached art studio was constructed at the rear of the property in 2011.
Figure 1 – Sanborn Map, 1904 Figure 2 – 216 W. Hyman as seen in 2015
REQUEST OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION (HPC)
The Applicant is requesting the following recommendation:
• Transferable Development Rights (Section 26.535) for the establishment of two TDRs
The Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) is a recommending body and Aspen City Council is
the final review authority.
PROJECT SUMMARY:
216 W. Hyman is a historically landmarked property that qualifies for the preservation benefit to
sever and sell unused development rights by establishing TDRs in increments of 250 square feet.
The applicant proposes to remove 500 square feet of developable floor area from the property,
leaving approximately 500-850 square feet available for future expansion (or conversion to more
TDRs), depending on whether the property remains a single-family home or becomes a duplex in
the future.
STAFF COMMENTS:
For the purposes of creating TDRs, the maximum floor area currently allowed for this property is
that of a single-family dwelling up to 3,240 square feet. According to the drawings provided in the
application:
Page 3 of 3
• Allowable Floor Area = 3,240 square feet
• Existing floor area = 2,241 square feet, including two new lightwells recently approved by
staff but not yet built
• Total floor area remaining = 999 square feet
The applicant requests approval to establish up to two TDRs, which will consume all but 499
square feet of allowed development rights on the site. The decision whether to proceed with the
execution of the deed restrictions and issuance of one, two, or no TDR certificates is at the owner’s
discretion. The value of the TDRs is set by the free-market and the City is not involved in the
transaction.
Staff finds that the application demonstrates the existence of unused development rights. The
proposed conversion of floor area to TDRs will not create or increase any non-conformities on the
site. Staff finds the criteria for establishing TDRs are met.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) support the request to establish
up to two TDRs from this historic property.

Exhibit A
Transferable Development Rights Criteria
Staff Findings
Section 26.535.070
A historic TDR certificate may be established by the Mayor if the City Council, pursuant to adoption
of an ordinance, finds all the following standards met:
A. The sending site is a historic landmark on which the development of a single-family or
duplex residence is a permitted use, pursuant to Chapter 26.710, Zone Districts. Properties
on which such development is a conditional use shall not be eligible.
Staff Findings: 216 W. Hyman is a designated historic landmark that is an eligible
sending site that can establish and sever transferable development rights (TDRs).
Single-family residential and duplex development are permitted uses in the zone
district where the property is located. Staff finds this criterion is met.
B. It is demonstrated that the sending site has permitted unbuilt development rights, for either
a single-family or duplex home, equaling or exceeding two hundred and fifty (250) square
feet of floor area multiplied by the number of historic TDR certificates requested.
Staff Findings: The applicant has provided as-built calculations indicating that at
least 999 square feet of unbuilt floor area remains on the lot. Two TDRs totaling 500
square feet of floor area can be removed without creating any floor area deficit. Final
floor area calculations shall be verified by the City’s Zoning Department prior to TDR
issuance. Staff finds this criterion is met.
C. It is demonstrated that the establishment of TDR certificates will not create a
nonconformity. In cases where a nonconformity already exists, the action shall not increase
the specific nonconformity.
Staff Findings: The creation of TDRs will not create or increase a nonconformity.
Staff finds this criterion is met.
D. The analysis of unbuilt development right shall only include the actual built development,
any approved development order, the allowable development right prescribed by zoning
for a single-family or duplex residence, and shall not include the potential of the sending
site to gain floor area bonuses, exemptions or similar potential development incentives.
Properties in the MU Zone District which do not currently contain a single-family home or
duplex established prior to the adoption of Ordinance #7, Series of 2005, shall be permitted
to base the calculation of TDRs on 100% of the allowable floor area on an equivalent-sized
lot in the R-6 zone district. This is only for the purpose of creating TDRs and does not
permit the on-site development of 100% of the allowable floor area on an equivalent-sized
Page 2 of 3
lot in the R-6 zone district. If the additional 20% of allowable floor area exceeds 500 square
feet, the applicant may not request a floor area bonus from HPC at any time in the future.
Any development order to develop floor area, beyond that remaining legally connected to
the property after establishment of TDR Certificates, shall be considered null and void.
Staff Findings: The calculations of unbuilt floor area view the property as a single
family home with a maximum floor area of 3,240 square feet. The development on
the site is approximately 2,241 square feet. Staff finds that unused floor area is
available and this criterion is met.
E. The proposed deed restriction permanently restricts the maximum development of the
property (the sending site) to an allowable floor area not exceeding the allowance for a
single-family or duplex residence minus two hundred and fifty (250) square feet of floor
area multiplied by the number of historic TDR certificates established.
For properties with multiple or unlimited floor areas for certain types of allowed uses,
the maximum development of the property, independent of the established property
use, shall be the floor area of a single-family or duplex residence (whichever is
permitted) minus two hundred fifty (250) square feet of floor area multiplies by the
number of historic TDR certificates established.
The deed restriction shall not stipulate an absolute floor area, but shall stipulate a
square footage reduction from the allowable floor area for a single-family or duplex
residence, as may be amended from time to time. The sending site shall remain eligible
for certain floor area incentives and/or exemptions as may be authorized by the City
Land Use Code, as may be amended from time to time. The form of the deed restriction
shall be acceptable to the City Attorney.
Staff Findings: At the point of issuing a TDR certificate, the applicant will be required
to file a deed restriction that will permanently reduce the allowable floor area by 250
square feet per TDR. All documents shall be reviewed by the City Attorney prior to
execution.
F. A real estate closing has been scheduled at which, upon satisfaction of all relevant
requirements, the City shall execute and deliver the applicable number of historic TDR
certificates to the sending site property owner and that property owner shall execute and
deliver a deed restriction lessening the available development right of the subject property
together with the appropriate fee for recording the deed restriction with the County Clerk
and Recorder's office.
Staff Findings: This is a mandatory process that the applicant must pursue.
Page 3 of 3
G. It shall be the responsibility of the sending site property owner to provide building plans
and a zoning analysis of the sending site to the satisfaction of the Community Development
Director. Certain review fees may be required for the confirmation of built floor area.
Staff Findings: The applicant has provided detailed floor area calculations as part of
the proposal. Final calculations shall be reviewed by Zoning prior to the issuance
of the TDR certificate.
H. The sale, assignment, conveyance or other transfer or change in ownership of transferable
development rights certificates shall be recorded in the real estate records of the Pitkin
County Clerk and Recorder and must be reported by the grantor to the City of Aspen
Community Development Department within five (5) days of such transfer. The report of
such transfer shall disclose the certificate number, the grantor, the grantee and the total
value of the consideration paid for the certificate. Failure to timely or accurately report such
transfer shall not render the transferable development right certificate void.
Staff Findings: This is a mandatory process that the applicant must pursue.
I. TDR certificates may be issued at the pace preferred by the property owner.
Staff Findings: N/A
J. City Council may find that the creation of TDRs is not the best preservation solution for the
affected historic resource and deny the application to create TDRs. HPC shall provide
Council with a recommendation.
Staff Findings: The applicant is requesting HPC recommend in favor of establishing
up to two (2) TDRs with this application. HPC is a recommending body and City
Council is the final authority for granting the TDR request.

Re: 216 West Hyman Avenue – Request to Establish TDRs
Dear Ms. Feinberg Lopez, HPC and City Council,
216 West Hyman a 6,000sf designated historic property that contains a circa 1885 miner’s cabin.
The property is zoned R-6, Medium Density Residential, which allows single family and duplex
homes among other residential based uses. The property is owned by Ann Mullins and is used as
a single family home. Ann respectfully requests to establish 2 TDRs. This request is not in
conjunction with a development application. Ann is perfectly happy with the size of her home and
prefers to permanently remove development pressure from the property by severing 500 sf of
floor area. This property has not received a floor area bonus in the past.
History
The original owner appears to be Martha Yonkers. The property has been altered over time but
the basic form of the miner’s cabin remains intact. One likely correct theory is that the two historic
landmarks shown on lots O and P were combined into what is now 216 West Hyman Avenue likely
around 1950. A review of building permit records shows that the basement and the garage were
added in 1953, and the enclosed front porch and a new rear porch were both added in 1955.
Figure 1: 1890 Sanborn Map Figure 2: AHS photograph of property circa 1953.
In 2010, HPC approved a detached art studio at the rear of the property. On May 11, 2022, an
administrative approval was granted to restore a non-street facing window, to remodel the
interior, and to add Building Code compliant window wells that increased floor area by about 10
sf. A building permit for this approved project is expected to be submitted in fall 2022.
TDR Review Criteria
Sec. 26.535.070. - Review criteria for establishment of a historic transferable development right.
A historic TDR certificate may be established by the Mayor of the City Council, pursuant to adoption
of an ordinance, finds all the following standards met.
(a) The sending site is a historic landmark on which the development of a single-family or
duplex residence is a permitted use, pursuant to Chapter 26.710, Zone Districts.
Properties on which such development is a conditional use shall not be eligible.
Response –216 West Hallam Avenue is a historic landmark site and single family or duplex are
permitted uses in the R-6 zone district.
(b) It is demonstrated that the sending site has permitted unbuilt development rights, for
either a single-family or duplex home, equaling or exceeding two hundred and fifty (250)
square feet of floor area multiplied by the number of historic TDR certificates requested.
Response – The allowable floor area is included as an exhibit and summarized below. The
current property has 2,231.34 sf of allowable floor area.
Table 1: Floor Area analysis
Single Family Home Two Detached Homes or Duplex
Allowable Floor Area 3,240 sf 3,600 sf
Existing Floor Area 2,231.34 sf 2,231.34 sf
Unbuilt Floor Area 1,008.66 sf 1,368.66 sf
Unbuilt Floor Area After
removal of 2 TDRS (500 sf) 508.66 sf 868.66 sf
(c) It is demonstrated that the establishment of TDR certificates will not create a
nonconformity. In cases where a nonconformity already exists, the action shall not
increase the specific nonconformity.
Response – A nonconformity is not created or increased as part of this request.
(d) The analysis of unbuilt development right shall only include the actual built
development, any approved development order, the allowable development right
prescribed by zoning for a single-family or duplex residence, and shall not include the
potential of the sending site to gain floor area bonuses, exemptions or similar potential
development incentives. Properties in the MU Zone District which do not currently
contain a single-family home or duplex established prior to the adoption of Ordinance #7,
Series of 2005, shall be permitted to base the calculation of TDRs on one hundred percent
(100%) of the allowable floor area on an equivalent-sized lot in the R-6 zone district. This
is only for the purpose of creating TDRs and does not permit the on-site development of
one hundred percent (100%) of the allowable floor area on an equivalent-sized lot in the
R-6 zone district. If the additional twenty percent (20%) of allowable floor area exceeds
five hundred (500) square feet, the applicant may not request a floor area bonus from
HPC at any time in the future. Any development order to develop floor area, beyond that
remaining legally connected to the property after establishment of TDR Certificates, shall
be considered null and void.
Response - The allowable floor area for two detached homes on the subject property is 3,600
sf and a total of 2,241.8 sf of allowable floor area is approved per the 2022 No Negative Effect
approval which increases the existing floor area by 10 sf. Considering the 2022 No Negative
Effect approval, there will be 1,358.2 sf of unused allowable floor area. Two TDRs equal to 500
sf of floor area is requested which, if severed, will leave 858.2 sf of available unbuilt floor area
on the subject parcel if developed as two detached homes and 498.2 sf of available unbuilt
floor area if the use continues as a single family home. 216 West Hallam has not received a
floor area bonus.1
(e) The proposed deed restriction permanently restricts the maximum development of the
property (the sending site) to an allowable floor area not exceeding the allowance for a
single-family or duplex residence minus two hundred and fifty (250) square feet of floor
area multiplied by the number of historic TDR certificates established.
For properties with multiple or unlimited floor areas for certain types of allowed uses,
the maximum development of the property, independent of the established property
use, shall be the floor area of a single-family or duplex residence (whichever is permitted)
minus two hundred fifty (250) square feet of floor area multiplies by the number of
historic TDR certificates established.
The deed restriction shall not stipulate an absolute floor area, but shall stipulate a square
footage reduction from the allowable floor area for a single-family or duplex residence,
as may be amended from time to time. The sending site shall remain eligible for certain
floor area incentives and/or exemptions as may be authorized by the City Land Use Code,
as may be amended from time to time. The form of the deed restriction shall be
acceptable to the City Attorney.
Response – A draft deed restriction is included in the application for review. It is understood
that the property owner may elect to sever up to two TDR certificates and is not obligated to
sever both TDRs. It is also understood that floor area equal to the number of TDRs issued is
permanently severed from the property upon the recordation of the deed restriction, and not
upon approval of an ordinance.
(f) A real estate closing has been scheduled at which, upon satisfaction of all relevant
requirements, the City shall execute and deliver the applicable number of historic TDR
certificates to the sending site property owner and that property owner shall execute and
deliver a deed restriction lessening the available development right of the subject
property together with the appropriate fee for recording the deed restriction with the
County Clerk and Recorder's office.
Response – n/a.
(g) It shall be the responsibility of the sending site property owner to provide building plans
and a zoning analysis of the sending site to the satisfaction of the Community
1 The Land Use Code allows a 6,000 sf historic property to apply for bonus floor area up to 375 sf for a single
family home and 15 sf for two detached homes or an attached duplex.
Development Director. Certain review fees may be required for the confirmation of built
floor area.
Response – Please refer to Exhibit K for a zoning analysis and floor area calculations.
(h) The sale, assignment, conveyance or other transfer or change in ownership of
transferable development rights certificates shall be recorded in the real estate records
of the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder and must be reported by the grantor to the City
of Aspen Community Development Department within five (5) days of such transfer. The
report of such transfer shall disclose the certificate number, the grantor, the grantee and
the total value of the consideration paid for the certificate. Failure to timely or accurately
report such transfer shall not render the transferable development right certificate void.
Response – n/a.
(i) TDR certificates may be issued at the pace preferred by the property owner.
Response – It is understood that the property owner may elect to sever up to two TDR
certificates and is not obligated to sever both TDRs. It is also understood that floor area equal
to the number of TDRs issued is permanently severed from the property upon the recordation
of the deed restriction, and not upon approval of an ordinance.
(j) City Council may find that the creation of TDRs is not the best preservation solution for
the affected historic resource and deny the application to create TDRs. HPC shall provide
Council with a recommendation.
Response – n/a.

additional information that will aid your review. We look forward to hearing your comments and
presenting this project to HPC and City Council for review.

DATE: October 10, 2022
PLANNER: Haley Hart, haley.hart@aspen.gov
PROJECT ADDRESS: 216 West Hyman Ave
PARCEL ID#: 273512463006
APPLICANT: Sara Adams, sara@bendonadams.com
DESCRIPTION: The subject site is within the original City and Townsite of Aspen Subdivision, Block 53, Lot’s
O and P, zoned Medium Density Residential (R-6). The subject property, which contains a circa 1885 miner’s
cabin known as the ‘Pink House,’ is a Victorian-era property that is historically designated. Based on the
applicants’ research on historic building permits, a basement and garage were added in 1953 and an enclosed
front porch and rear porch were added in 1955. In 2010, HPC approved a detached art studio at the rear of
the property. The applicant wishes to convert unused developable floor area from 216 West Hyman Ave, the
Sending Site, into two (2) Transferable Development Rights (TDRs).
TDRs are created in increments of 250 square feet and must be reviewed by the Historic Preservation
Commission (HPC) for a recommendation that will be presented in front of City Council. The applicant
requests two (2) TDRs which would equate to 500 square feet total. City Council has final authority to approve
or disapprove the establishment of TDRs by adoption of an ordinance (Section 26.535.050). Once approved,
the applicant must file a deed restriction on the property noting that for each TDR created, the development
rights on the site are reduced by 250 square feet. After the deed restrictions are recorded, Community
Development staff will issue the TDR certificate to the owner.
In order to determine if there is unused floor area to be sold, the City will require that the owner acquires a
survey that will help staff determine maximum floor area for the site. The City will also require floor area
calculations to determine the difference between the maximum floor area and the existing floor area to see
how much is available to be turned into TDR’s. The applicant has submitted preliminary information that stated
on May 11, 2022, an administrative approval was granted to restore a non-street facing window to remodel
the interior and to add Building Code compliant window wells that increased total floor area by 10 square feet.
Upon the issuance of this building permit, expected to be submitted Fall 2022, the applicant’s calculations of
floor area for the property is 2,241.8 square feet. The allowable floor area for the subject property is 3,240
square feet for a single-family residence and 3,600 square feet for two detached dwellings or one duplex.
The City plays no role in the sale of TDRs; however, the sale price of a TDR is required to be disclosed to
Community Development within five days of any transaction.
HPC will use the Land Use Code Sections and applicable criteria to provide a recommendation to City Council.
City Council will make a determination according to the review standards identified in Section 26.535.070.

Certificate of No Negative Effect
Approved Denied
Applicant: Margaret Ann Mullins, 216 W Hyman, Aspen CO, 81611.
Property: 216 W Hyman; Legally described as Block: 53 Lot: O & P., City
and Townsite of Aspen, PID # 2737-124-63-006
Determination: This 11th day of May, 2022, the following alterations have been
approved as represented in the land use application.
Project Details and Review Criteria
The applicant is undertaking work to modify the interior of the historic cottage, adding a
non-street facing window and window wells in order to comply with code for egress from
the basement.
The project qualifies for a Certificate of No Negative Effect according to Section
26.415.070.B of the Municipal Code as it entails replacement of architectural features
which creates no change to the exterior physical appearance of the building or structure.
Based on a review of the applicable Historic Preservation Design Guidelines and the
Commercial, Lodging and Historic District Design Standards and Guidelines, staff finds
that the work will not diminish, eliminate or adversely affect the significant historic and/or
architectural character of the subject property on which it is located and that the design
guidelines applicable to this scope of work are met, with no conditions.
