Staff present:
Debbie Quinn, Assistant Attorney
Sara Adams, Senior Planner

MOTION: Willis moved to approve the minutes of June 25th second by
John. All in favor, motion carried.
Brian McNellis talked about the Red Butte Cemetery and its
inappropriateness to have a review in front of City Council without HPC
approval. Brian requested that the HPC submit a letter recommending
denial of the application of the Red Butte proposal for an ADU. The ADU
diminishes the character of the cemetery.
Chris Bendon, Community Development Director said HPC doesn't get
involved in use. City Council is reviewing the use Monday night.
Amy said there are no exterior changes to the proposed ADU building.
Patrick asked that the commission continue to ensure the preservation of
Aspen's character as an historic mining town, early ski resort and culture
center.
John will recuse himself on 435 W. Main Street.
Debbie Quinn said there is a quorum but to proceed three 3 affirmative votes
are required for approval.

the sanctuary building is up there is concern that the parsonage building will

take away the view from the view out of the sanctuary. There is now a
gabled element over the entry into the structure. We would like to see a
longer ridge line but it doesn't work well with their program. The footprint
of the project has not changed. We are only looking at a height reduction
and some changes to the materials. Staff supports the gabled roof option and
that the stone be held to the foundation level like it is on the sanctuary. The
design does have a nice relationship to the man building. We are also
suggesting that one set of windows be reviewed by staff and monitor.
Arthur Chabon, architect presented comparisons of the different designs.
What was successful and is carried through all the design is the scale. We
achieved a good relationship between the voids of the cabins. There is a
descending scale of the mass from the sanctuary, parsonage and down to the
cabins. The building is three or four feet away from Main Street and the
interior floor plan is identical as to what was approved.
Chairperson, Jay Maytin opened the public hearing. There were no public
comments. The public hearing was closed.
Exhibit I — Colored rendering
Patrick said the design has morphed from Aspen's character as a mining
town. From the distance of the peak to the gable you would still see the
mountain. Guideline 10.09 flat roofs should be avoided. The horizontal
windows are also not in keeping with the guidelines.
Sallie was seated at 5:30 p.m.
Willis said he is willing to approve this and the design works well. The
same detailing and thickness of the wall on the sanctuary should carry over
to the parsonage. The windows can be worked out with staff and monitor.
Sallie agreed that staff and monitor should take a look at the stone and
windows.
Jay said he also believes staff and monitor can handle the windows and
cladding and I would include the entire building. The approved project
looked like a home and this looks like a mixed use building and that
confuses what is going on. The matching gable works well. I would

request that staff and monitor look at all the cladding on the building to
make it more like a residence rather than a mixed use building.
MOTION: Jay moved to approve resolution # 19 and to change condition #2
that staff and monitor would approve all exterior materials. No second.
Motion died for lack of a second.
Debbie suggested a language change: exterior material to be approved by
staff and monitor.
MOTION: Willis moved to approve resolution # 19 as written; second by
Sallie. Roll call vote: Sallie, yes; Willis, yes; Jay, no; Patrick, no.
Jay said Willis wants the stone used at the foundation level of the building to
be reviewed and approved by staff and monitor and mine was to include that
part but expand it to include looking at the entire building exterior.
Willis said if you give them the ability to restudy siding the monitor will get
confused and it will end up coming back to the entire board. If you lessen
the stone it will feel more residential and I propose we approve it as written.
Sallie said if you allow the siding on the entire building to be reviewed again
it is opening up too many problems and you get the same thing
accomplished if we approve it as written.
MOTION: Willis moved to approve resolution #19, 2014 as written; second
by Sallie. Roll call vote: Patrick, no; Jay, yes; Willis, yes; Sallie, yes.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Commission
FROM: Amy Simon, Historic Preservation Officer
RE: 435 W. Main Street, Aspen Jewish Community Center- Substantial Amendment
to Major Development Approval- Continued Public Hearing
DATE: July 9, 2014
SUMMARY: 435 W. Main Street is located within the Main Street Historic District, and is a
designated landmark due to the presence of a group of 1940s era lodging cabins on the site.
The Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen (AJCC), owner of the property, has been in the
land use review process since 2004 seeking approvals for a sanctuary, preschool, and
administrative building on the west portion of the lot (currently under construction), preservation
of the historic cabins for use as affordable housing and lodging for visitors related to church
events and programming, and a parsonage so that the Rabbi and family can live on site and
receive the congregation. The design of the parsonage received HPC Final approval in 2013.
The applicant requests an amendment to change the roof form and exterior materials on the
parsonage in order to lower the building height and provide views from the sanctuary towards
Independence Pass. The building footprint is to remain essentially the same. For the June 11 th
public hearing before HPC, the applicant provided two shallow pitched roof options and two flat
roof options (flat roof concept shown below).
�� Jr; ,
IF
0 0
The hearing was continued with the recommendation that the applicant pursue the flat roof, but
restudy proposed materials, in particular the use of less stone and windows that are more
residential in character.
Attached are two new designs. One is the restudied flat roof concept and one includes a gable
roof over the entry element into the home.
APPLICANT: The Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen, represented by Arthur Chabon,
architect and Alan Richman Planning Services.
PARCEL ID: 2735-124-81-100.
ADDRESS: 435 W. Main Street, Lots A -I, Block 38, City and Townsite of Aspen, Colorado.
ZONING: MU, Mixed Use.
MAJOR DEVELOPMENT- SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT
The HPC will review the application, the staff analysis report and the evidence presented at
the hearing to determine the project's conformance with the City of Aspen Historic
Preservation Design Guidelines. The HPC may approve, disapprove, approve with conditions
or continue the application to obtain additional information necessary to make a decision to
approve or deny.
Staff Response: The relevant design guidelines include the HPC guidelines for new
development on a landmark lot, and the Main Street District guidelines found in the Commercial,
Lodging and Historic Districts design document. They are attached as "Exhibit A."
Planning staff has attempted to provide the applicant with various suggestions for roof forms and
materials that might ensure that the revised parsonage is a successful fit for the site. Staff
understands the purpose for the redesign and, while we supported the approved project, we also
acknowledge that the steeply pitched roof created a substantial mass on the site. A lower profile
building could have merit as well.
In terms of the pitched roof concepts . that were proposed on June I I th, staff found the very
shallow pitch to be out of character with both the cabins on the property and the new main
building. Staff suggested that the applicant consider plan form changes that would allow for a
different roof plan, but a "starting from scratch" approach is beyond the scope of what the
applicant hopes to take on. The footprint and placement of the house were discussed at length
and deemed appropriate by HPC.
Staff suggested the applicant consider a flat roof, which could create a "quiet" building that did
not conflict with the roof pitches already established by the other buildings on the property. We
suggested that, if a flat roof was used, the whole building should have a more modern approach
than what was presented to HPC last month. The board seemed to agree and requested a restudy
along those lines.
Staff finds that the entirely flat roof design still lacks the residential character that has been
recommended. In preparation for this meeting, we suggested that the applicant continue to try to
incorporate a gable form into the house, which is now proposed.
Staff finds that the gable, although minimal, does help to meet the guidelines by including forms
that are common in the surrounding buildings, at a degree of pitch that is traditional in the
neighborhood. The scale of the revised parsonage has a good relationship to the adjacent cabins.
The rustic detailing that was represented on June 1 lih has been removed.
Staff still recommends that stone be minimized as an exterior material. On the approved design,
stone is primarily limited to the foundation of the building. We recommend this be revised for
review and approval by staff and monitor.
Overall, the windows have been redesigned as directed by the board. Staff recommends the band
of windows on the front facade, upper floor, be amended since this window pattern is not found
elsewhere on the site or in the district. Staff and monitor review would be appropriate.
The HPC may:
• approve the application,
• approve the application with conditions,
• disapprove the application, or
• continue the application to a date certain to obtain additional information necessary
to make a decision to approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends HPC grant approval for a Substantial Amendment
to the Major Development approval for the parsonage at 435 W. Main Street with the following
conditions:
1. The approved option has a gable roof over the entry element.
2. Reduce the use of stone as an exterior material to the foundation level of the building, to
be reviewed and approved by staff and monitor.
3. Restudy the continuous band of windows on the front facade, upper floor, for review and
approval by staff and monitor.
4. The approval of this Substantial Amendment does not extend the three year period of
Vested Rights established in the Development Order granted after Final HPC approval,
effective April 25, 2013.

"Exhibit A: Relevant Design Guidelines for 435 W. Main Street, Final Major
Development"
11.2 In a residential context, clearly define the primary entrance to a new building by
using a front porch.
❑ The front porch should be "functional," in that it is used as a means of access to the entry.
❑ A new porch should be similar in size and shape to those seen traditionally.
❑ In some cases, the front door itself may be positioned perpendicular to the street;
nonetheless, the entry should still be clearly defined with a walkway and porch that orients to
the street.
11.3 Construct a new building to appear similar in scale with the historic buildings on the
parcel.
❑ Subdivide larger masses into smaller "modules" that are similar in size to the historic
buildings on the original site.
11.4 Design a front elevation to be similar in scale to the historic building.
❑ The primary plane of the front should not appear taller than the historic structure.
❑ The front should include a one-story element, such as a porch.
11.5 Use building forms that are similar to those of the historic property.
They should not overwhelm the original in scale.
11.6 Use roof forms that are similar to those seen traditionally in the block.
❑ Sloping roofs such as gable and hip roofs are appropriate for primary roof forms.
❑ Flat roofs should be used only in areas where it is appropriate to the context.
❑ On a residential structure, eave depths should be similar to those seen traditionally in the
context.
❑ Exotic building and roof forms that would detract from the visual continuity of the street are
discouraged. These include geodesic domes and A -frames.
11.7 Roof materials should appear similar in scale and texture to those used traditionally.
❑ Roof materials should have a matte, non -reflective finish.
11.8 Use building materials that contribute to a traditional sense of human scale.
❑ Materials that appear similar in scale and finish to those used historically on the site are
encouraged.
❑ Use of highly reflective materials is discouraged.

11.9 Use building components that are similar in size and shape to those of the historic
property.
❑ These include windows, doors and porches.
❑ Overall, details should be modest in character.
11.10 The imitation of older historic styles is discouraged.
❑ This blurs the distinction between old and new buildings.
❑ Highly complex and ornately detailed revival styles that were not a part of Aspen's history are
especially discouraged on historic sites.
7.16 Use building components that are similar in size and shape to those of the
Victorian era residences seen traditionally on Main Street.
❑ These include windows, doors and porches.
❑ Overall, details should be modest in character.
7.17 The imitation of older historic styles is discouraged.
❑ This blurs the distinction between old and new buildings.
❑ Highly complex and ornately detailed revival styles that were not apart of Aspen's history
are especially discouraged.
7.20 Use building materials that are similar to those used historically.
❑ When selecting materials, reflect the simple and modest character of historic materials and
their placement.
7.21 Use roofing materials that are similar in appearance to those seen historically.

Disclosure:
John stated that he will recuse himself because he was public noticed on 435

Sallie said she has spoken to some of the principles of 301 Lake about
contracting work and has not been engaged in anything. She can be
impartial and has not had any financial gain.
Nora said Derek did a collective family lot split and it has nothing to do with
these projects.
435 W. Main Street — Aspen Jewish Center - Substantial Amendment to
Major Development approval, Public Hearing
Exhibit I — Public Notice
Amy said the proposal is a substantial amendment to the project. Half of the
project is currently under construction. We have six original tourist cabins
that are being preserved as part of this project along the alley and on Third
Street. We are here to discuss the parsonage house which will be the
residence for the Rabi and his family and other functions with the
congregation. HPC granted approve a year ago for this new home. The
approved version was a very steeply pitched gabled roof which is around 38
feet high. The applicant would like to look at ways to drop that height
down. In the packet are concepts for a flatter roof and a flatter but still
gabled roof. Our concern is how the building is ending up reading. Staff
suggested the possibility of a flat roof building which could be the lowest
profile solution but it is also different than the other structures on the site.
Staff is concerned with the material and detailing. We are looking for some

kind of residential expression, possibly a porch. Staff is recommending
continuance until July 9". This is a residential structure and needs to read
that way.
Rabi Mintz said when construction of the main building happened and we
looked out the second floor we found fantastic views that we didn't have
before to the east. The changes in the roof are being triggered by the people
in the community.
Arthur Chabon, architect
Arthur showed the approved footprint of the parsonage. The footprint to
cabin 19 is 27'4"and the front has an added porch. We developed a shallow
pitch design with a gable that is entirely in stone. Another design was to
have the gable entirely in wood. Both of these schemes retain the idea of
double gables, the main gable of the sanctuary diminishing down to the scale
of the parsonage and the smallest scale the cabins. The porch is now applied
to the front instead of a wrap around. Another design we explored is a flat
roof which is an expression of the parsonage. It unifies the parsonage to the
sanctuary. It ends the length of the sanctuary and repetition of the gables.
We also feel the flat roof relates better to the scale of the cabins. The
detailing would be the same as the sanctuary, the siding is the same siding
and the stone would be the same and the windows the same. The fagade of
the flat roof design relates to the sanctuary and it keeps the block unified.
Willis said it is admirable to want to collect the views and bring them into
the sanctuary.
Jim asked staff what specifically should be restudied.
Amy said a little more work on the fenestration and materials to make sure
they are related to the fact that this has become a modernized flat roof with
the heavy lintel posts on the front porch.
Arthur said the building reads as a modern building. You can now see into
the building from the courtyard.
Willis said the eastern window of the sanctuary has been enlarged.
Amy said it received staff and monitor approval to slightly enlarge that
window to become a view window.

Vice -chair Willis Pember opened the public hearing. There were no public
comments. The public hearing was closed.
Jim said he fundamentally supports the requests. I would defer to staff to
sort out some of the details.
Willis said the existing construction looks very good. The design is close
but not there yet. I agree that some of the rustic detailing in a modern
structure is a little conflicted. If the flat wall and flat roof is western I am
confused. Here we have stone representing Western as opposed to being
contemporarily expressed. It looks a little unauthentic with the heavy
timbers. I'm not sure Western should be pursued. The scale is there.
Sallie said she agrees with staff that the primitive Western detailing is
confusing because it is not on the main building.
Nora said the board struggled hard to make the block cohesive. I am feeling
a huge incongruity. Is the benefit to the congregation of having a view at the
expense of the public who doesn't go in there. The windows do not relate to
the cabins. The stone is also a concern. I do support the scale as it steps up.
Sallie said it could be accomplished with more glass and less stone.
Willis said staff mentioned that the fenestration should relate more strongly
to the synagogue.
Nora said guideline 11.2, 11.3, 11.6 and 11.8 are not met.
Patrick said the pitched roof really fit in well and was designed well. I see
the compromise because of the views wanting to lower the roof. The low
pitch is more in keeping with the guidelines. Flat roofs are discouraged in
residential areas in the guideline. It might flow better if there was a soffit
around the parsonage. The stone looks too non-residential. If you look at
the east end of the sanctuary one sees the tall window with the wood and the
stone below it, the stone doesn't overwhelm. I would like to see a wrap
around porch that was originally done.
Willis said he supports staff recommendation and they are very close.
There are minor tweaks such as cladding and I think with a lighter touch and

maybe less stone this would be successful so that it doesn't look like the
Alamo you will get the residential vibe that you are looking for.
MOTION: Jim moved to continue 435 W. Main until July 9" to allow
dialogue with staff and the applicant; second by Patrick. All in favor,
motion carried 5-0.
Arthur asked for a little more definitive direction.
HPC direction:
Less stone
Windows to look more residential and relate better to the sanctuary.
The flat roof is OK.

301 Lake Avenue — AspenModern Negotiation for Voluntary Landmark
Designation, Conceptual Major Development and Variances, Public
Hearing
John was seated.
Debbie said the affidavit of notice has been provided. Exhibit I.
Amy said the AspenModern program has been in place since 2011 and it is
on a voluntary basis. The Lundy family has owned the house for 40 years.
This is a negotiation to keep this building as part of the community. We
have an application for voluntary designation and then we will talk about the
design review for the proposed addition, variances and incentive to be
proposed to City Council. Council will make the decision on the entire
package.
Designation: Amy said Victor Lundy lives in Texas and is a highly
respected master architect. He set up his practice in Sarasota Florida and
made a huge impact on the architecture in Florida at the time. He then
moved to New York City and did work for the Smithsonian and world's fair.
Two of his buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
In 1980 this building was photographed and it was only 8 years old. The
building is completely unaltered and the family has just recently made the
decision to sell the property. The building meets all of the designation

MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Commission
FROM: Amy Simon, Historic Preservation Officer
RE: 435 W. Main Street, Aspen Jewish Community Center- Substantial Amendment
to Major Development Approval- Public Hearing
DATE: June 11, 2013
SUMMARY: In 2013, the Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen (AJCC) received approval
to construct a parsonage on the eastern half of their property at 435 W. Main Street. The AJCC
site is a designated landmark within the Main Street Historic District.
The parsonage replaced earlier approvals for a social hall that was intended to supplement the
special function space available in the main sanctuary structure. AJCC determined that being
able to have the Rabbi and family live on site and receive the congregation in a smaller setting
was a higher priority need.
The complex has been in the land use review process since 2004 and includes a sanctuary,
preschool, and administrative building on the west portion of the lot and preservation of 6
historic 1940s era tourist cabins along the alley and Third Street, to be used as affordable housing
and lodging for visitors related to church events and programming. Construction of the project
was initiated in June 2012 and the main building is expected to be completed this year.
The applicant would like to change the roof form and exterior materials on the parsonage in order
to lower the building height and provide views from the sanctuary towards Independence Pass.
The applicant provided two pitched roof options in the original submittal, and provided two flat
roof revisions in response to initial staff comments. The building footprint remains essentially
the same, although in the flat roofed options, the porch is under living space rather than
projecting from the front of the building.
APPLICANT: The Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen, represented by Arthur Chabon,
architect and Alan Richman Planning Services.
PARCEL ID: 2735-124-81-100.
ADDRESS: 435 W. Main Street, Lots A -I, Block 38, City and Townsite of Aspen, Colorado.
ZONING: MU, Mixed Use.

MAJOR DEVELOPMENT- SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT
The HPC will review the application, the staff analysis report and the evidence presented at
the hearing to determine the project's conformance with the City of Aspen Historic
Preservation Design Guidelines. The HPC may approve, disapprove, approve with conditions
or continue the application to obtain additional information necessary to make a decision to
approve or deny.
Staff Response: The relevant design guidelines include the HPC guidelines for new
development on a landmark lot, and the Main Street District guidelines found in the Commercial,
Lodging and Historic Districts design document. They are attached as "Exhibit A."
Planning staff has discussed the various options for the project and is unable to find that the
revised designs meet the guidelines at this point. We understand the purpose for the changes
and, while we supported the approved design, acknowledge that the steeply pitched roof created a
substantial mass on the site. A lower profile building could be a good fit for the historic district
and site.
In terms of the pitched roof concepts that are
proposed, staff finds the very shallow pitch to
be out of character with both the cabins on the
property and the new main building. A steeper
pitch for the main gable could be achieved at
the same height if the roof wasn't spanning
such a large width. Staff had suggested that
the applicant consider plan form changes that
would allow for a different roof plan, but we
understand that is beyond the scope of what
they hope to take on. We also recognize that
the footprint and placement of the house were
discussed at length and deemed appropriate by
HPC.
Staff suggested the applicant consider a flat
roof, which could create a "quiet" building that
did not conflict with the roof pitches already
established by the other buildings on the
property. We suggested that, if a flat roof was
used, the whole building should have a more
modern approach. The flat roofed proposals
that are presented continue to feature what we
perceive as a more rustic detailing. The use of
the building seems very unclear, where in the
approved design the building clearly read as a
home. Images illustrating the general direction
that staff has proposed might be successful are
seen at right. We would recommend that fenestration be similar to that on the main building.
2
0 •
Staff finds that the proposal conflicts to some degree with all of the guidelines below. We find
that a projecting porch should still be featured, materials and detailing should be more
characteristic of the neighborhood and site, and the building should overall be more clearly tied
to the architectural quality of the main structure.
The HPC may:
• approve the application,
• approve the application with conditions,
• disapprove the application, or
• continue the application to a date certain to obtain additional information necessary
to make a decision to approve or deny.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends HPC continue the review to July 9t' for additional
study. The applicant may also submit information for review at the June 11 h hearing if it is
delivered to staff by noon on Tuesday, June 100'.
Exhibits:
A. Relevant guidelines
B. Application
"Exhibit A: Relevant Design Guidelines for 435 W. Main Street, Final Major
Development"
11.2 In a residential context, clearly define the primary entrance to a new building by
using a front porch.
❑ The front porch should be "functional," in that it is used as a means of access to the entry.
❑ A new porch should be similar in size and shape to those seen traditionally.
❑ In some cases, the front door itself may be positioned perpendicular to the street;
nonetheless, the entry should still be clearly defined with a walkway and porch that orients to
the street.
11.3 Construct a new building to appear similar in scale with the historic buildings on the
parcel.
❑ Subdivide larger masses into smaller "modules" that are similar in size to the historic
buildings on the original site.
11.4 Design a front elevation to be similar in scale to the historic building.
❑ The primary plane of the front should not appear taller than the historic structure.
❑ The front should include a one-story element, such as a porch.
11.5 Use building forms that are similar to those of the historic property.
❑ They should not overwhelm the original in scale.
3
11.6 Use roof forms that are similar to those seen traditionally in the block.
❑ Sloping roofs such as gable and hip roofs are appropriate for primary roof forms.
❑ Flat roofs should be used only in areas where it is appropriate to the context.
❑ On a residential structure, eave depths should be similar to those seen traditionally in the
context.
❑ Exotic building and roof forms that would detract from the visual continuity of the street are
discouraged. These include geodesic domes and A -frames.
11.7 Roof materials should appear similar in scale and texture to those used traditionally.
❑ Roof materials should have a matte, non -reflective finish.
11.8 Use building materials that contribute to a traditional sense of human scale.
❑ Materials that appear similar in scale and finish to those used historically on the site are
encouraged.
❑ Use of highly reflective materials is discouraged.
11.9 Use building components that are similar in size and shape to those of the historic
property.
o These include windows, doors and porches.
❑ Overall, details should be modest in character.
11.10 The imitation of older historic styles is discouraged.
❑ This blurs the distinction between old and new buildings.
❑ Highly complex and ornately detailed revival styles that were not a part of Aspen's history are
especially discouraged on historic sites.
7.16 Use building components that are similar in size and shape to those of the
Victorian era residences seen traditionally on Main Street.
❑ These include windows, doors and porches.
❑ Overall, details should be modest in character.
7.17 The imitation of older historic styles is discouraged.
❑ This blurs the distinction between old and new buildings.
❑ Highly complex and ornately detailed revival styles that were not apart ofAspen's history
are especially discouraged.
7.20 Use building materials that are similar to those used historically.
❑ When selecting materials, reflect the simple and modest character of historic materials and
their placement.
7.21 Use roofing materials that are similar in appearance to those seen historically.

I. Application Request
This is an application for an amendment to the development approvals previously granted
to the Aspen Jewish Community Center (AJCC). The purpose of the amendment is to
alter the approved design of the Rabbi's parsonage, which will be located between the
historic cabins and the new Community Center building. The parsonage will provide a
place for the Rabbi and his family to live. The parsonage will also host important functions
for the congregation. For example, the Rabbi will hold communal dinners with the
congregation at the parsonage following Friday night services. Social activities for
scholars, speakers and other guests of the congregation will also occur at the parsonage.
The property on which the development is proposed to occur is Lots A through I, Block 38,
City and Townsite of Aspen (more commonly known as 435 West Main Street). The
Parcel ID # for the property is 273512481100. The property is approximately 26,981 sq. ft.
in size and is zoned Mixed Use (MU). A vicinity map locating this property within the City
of Aspen has been provided.
The subject property is owned by The Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen ("the
applicant"). Proof of the ownership of the property is provided by Exhibit #1, the general
warranty deeds. A letter from Rabbi Mendel Mintz of the Jewish Resource Center
authorizing Alan Richman Planning Services and Arthur Chabon Architects to submit this
application is attached as Exhibit #2.
The applicant held several pre -application meetings with staff prior to the submission of
this application. A pre -application conference summary was issued by the staff (see
Exhibit #3, Pre -Application Conference Summary). This document indicates that the
proposal is considered to be an amendment to a major development requiring final review
and approval by the Historic Preservation Commission pursuant to Section 26.415.070 E
of the Aspen Land Use Code.
This application has been organized to respond to the applicable review standards of the
Land Use Code. First, however, a summary of the prior approvals granted to the Jewish
Community Center and a description of the current plans for the parsonage are presented
to establish the context for this application.
II. Summary of Prior Approvals/Description of Current Plans
A. Development Plans for the Jewish Community Center Building
The applicant purchased the subject property in 2004 and began the process of working
with the City's review bodies on development plans for the Jewish Community Center.
The applicant spent eighteen months working with the HPC on the original conceptual
designs for this property. Formal public hearings or scheduled work sessions were held
with the HPC in February, July, and October of 2004, and January, February, April, June,
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 1
and August of 2005, at which time conceptual approval for a new Jewish Community
Center project was granted pursuant to HPC Resolution 31, Series of 2005.
Following completion of the HPC conceptual review process the applicant submitted a
land use application for review by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council.
That application requested designation of the property as an historic landmark; growth
management review for an essential public facility and for affordable housing; special
review to establish the parking requirements; and subdivision review. The P&Z
recommended that City Council approve the project pursuant to Resolution No. 24, Series
of 2006, approved on July 18, 2006. City Council then approved the project pursuant to
Ordinance 36, Series of 2006, adopted on September 25, 2006 (see Exhibit #4).
The applicant then returned to HPC to obtain final approval of a major development. This
approval was granted pursuant to HPC Resolution 5, Series of 2007 (see Exhibit #5).
HPC later granted a side yard setback variance to the project pursuant to Resolution 31,
Series of 2007 (see Exhibit #6). Finally, HPC granted an amendment to the final approval
pursuant to Resolution 40, Series of 2007 (see Exhibit #7). This amendment provided
detailed responses to many of the conditions established in Resolution 5 of 2006.
The approved project design included an eastern wing and a western wing, connected by
a central lobby and courtyard. The western wing, along Fourth Street, was approved to
contain a religious sanctuary, a pre-school with an outdoor play space, administrative
offices, religious classrooms and a library. The eastern wing, along Third Street, was
designed to be used as a social hall.
The approved project also had six of the nine remaining original cabins remaining in place.
Three cabins along Third Street would be used as affordable housing, while three cabins
along the alley would be used as lodging for scholars and guests of the JCC. The other
three original cabins were approved to be relocated off -site. The cabins have since been
relocated, two to a site in the County and one to a site along Lake Avenue.
The project that was originally approved by City Council was for a building that was
approximately 19,655 sq. ft. in size. The amended project was approximately 2,345
square feet smaller, at a size of approximately 17,310 sq. ft.
Once the necessary approvals were in place the applicant recorded the subdivision plat
and agreement and applied for a building permit for the project. However, by that time the
economy was beginning to slow down and descend into the Great Recession. It became
apparent that funding for the project would not be available and so the applicant withdrew
the building permit application.
Subsequently, the applicant requested an extension of the vested rights for the project.
City Council extended the vested rights to March 1, 2013 pursuant to Resolution 17,
Series of 2010 (see Exhibit #8) providing the applicant with additional time to initiate
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 2
project construction. Then, as economic conditions began to improve the applicant began
to re -think how to move forward with the project. Amended plans were submitted to HPC
and in September, 2011 the applicant was granted approval to establish a two phase
development plan for the project. That approval further reduced the project's floor area to
17,100 sq. ft. and was granted via HPC Resolution 7, Series of 2011 (see Exhibit #9).
The approved Phase I involves the re -development of the site with a new building located
along the Main Street/Fourth Street side of the property that will house a sanctuary/social
hall, pre-school, religious school classrooms, and the administration area. Phase I also
involves the restoration of the six historic cabins along Third Street and the alley, for use
as affordable housing for employees of the AJCC and temporary guest/scholar lodging.
Deed restrictions formalizing the use of these six cabins as affordable housing and
temporary guest lodging are recorded as Reception No. 592066 and 592018, respectively.
Phase I is now under construction, with occupancy scheduled to occur later this year. The
approximate floor area being built in Phase I is 10,550 sq. ft. in the new building plus 1,975
sq. ft. for the 6 cabins, for a total of 12,525 sq. ft.
Phase II of the project, as it was approved at that time, would have completed the
development of the property with a building on the Third Street side, linked to the Phase I
building by a loggia. The floor area of this building was limited to 4,575 sq. ft. (with the
total Phase I and Phase II being 17,100 sq. ft.).
As explained above, the original plan for the Phase II building was that it would be the
social hall for the congregation. However, when HPC granted approval for the phased
project, the applicant suggested that it would make more sense for the congregation to
use the Phase I building for several years and see how the demands for its facilities evolve
over time before settling on the uses for the additional space in Phase II. So the originally -
approved Phase II site plan was, in fact, a "place holder" until such time as the applicant
could determine the long term needs of the congregation.
B. Development Plans for the Parsonage
Early in 2012 the Jewish Resource Center reached a conclusion as to how best to utilize
the remainder of the property. The applicant concluded that it is essential to provide a
space for the Rabbi and his family to live on the property and for the Rabbi to be able to
host important social functions of the congregation in this parsonage. Therefore, it was
decided that the plans for the social hall would be abandoned and replaced by a new plan
for the Rabbi's parsonage, in a similar location to the former Phase II building.
A site plan and building elevations for the parsonage were prepared. The plans showed
the parsonage being located to the east of the Jewish Community Center. The parsonage
would cover significantly less of the eastern side of the property than the previously
approved Phase II building and would not require a physical connector to the Phase I
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 3

building, allowing a playground to be established between the JCC and the parsonage.
The playground will be used by children who attend the planned JCC pre-school.
To the west of the parsonage is another open space area, which will be a yard for the
Rabbi and his family. The yard creates a generous (more than 25') separation between
the parsonage and the cabins along Third Street, as required by HPC.
The Conceptual plans for the parsonage were approved by HPC on August 15, 2012
pursuant to HPC Resolution 20-2012 (see Exhibit #10). The plans then proceeded
through the land use portion of the review process, with approval being granted by City
Council pursuant to Ordinance 2, Series of 2013 (see Exhibit #11). Final approval was
then granted by HPC pursuant to Resolution No. 10, Series of 2013 (see Exhibit #12). An
amended Subdivision Agreement for the project was recorded as reception No. 598949 of
the Pitkin County records to document the project.
As the parsonage was being reviewed and approved by the City, the new Community
Center building was emerging from the ground. As the building was framed and work
began on the inside of the building, an important opportunity arose for the project. There
had always been a small window planned and approved along the east side of the
building, on the second floor, looking out from the sanctuary. As this window was cut into
the structure, it became apparent to members of the congregation that the view from this
window towards the mountains east of Aspen was quite spectacular, and would provide an
inspiring backdrop for the sanctuary. Members of the congregation asked the Rabbi to
pursue a minor change to the approved design, to allow a larger window to be placed on
this side of the building. Staff concurred that this was an appropriate change and the new
window was approved and is now in the process of being installed.
Once this change was approved, members of the congregation next suggested that the
architect should take another look at the design of the parsonage, to see how much impact
it was going to have on the views from this new window. A field simulation was conducted
using a crane that hoisted a roof form to the height of the approved parsonage. A
computer simulation of the view was also prepared. Those who viewed the simulations
concluded that the roof of the parsonage would have a drastic detrimental impact on the
views from this window. Therefore, they asked the Rabbi and the architect to re -consider
the design of the parsonage with an eye toward lowering the height of the roof, in order to
protect this view for all members of the congregation to enjoy for generations to come.
The amended design presented in this application is the outcome of that re -consideration
process. The proposed changes are most easy to understand by examining Sheet 6,
entitled "North Elevation", showing the view from Main Street. The peak height of the roof
of the parsonage is proposed to be lowered by more than 12'. Where the peak of the
approved roof was nearly 38' tall, the peak of the proposed roof is about 25.75' tall. The
form of the roof has also been lowered, from an approved pitch of approximately 15:12 to
a proposed pitch of 4:12. Other associated changes to the design are as follows:
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 4
1
• The window proportions have been modified to better fit the reduced scale of the
proposed structure.
• The front porch has been reduced in size (although it still exceeds the minimum 50
square foot residential design standard), so it too will better fit with the reduced
scale of the proposed structure.
• The material for the chimneys has been changed from masonry to metal flues.
• The dominant material along the Main Street frontage has changed from wood
siding to stone.
While these changes have been made to protect the view from the sanctuary, the
applicant believes that they also result in a better overall project that meets the needs of
the community and remains consistent with the City's historic preservation design
guidelines. Most notably, the changes will result in a lower overall mass for the parsonage
and a less prominent building than was originally approved. Reducing the height by more
than 12' will open up views towards Aspen Mountain for pedestrians and motorists along
Main Street and will create a much less imposing mass than the previous design.
Looking at the color renderings that have been submitted, which shows the entire block,
one can see that the reduced scale of the parsonage is is more in keeping with the small
scale of the adjacent historic cabins and provides a better transition across the block. With
this proposed amendment, as a passer-by looks across the block from east to west, he or
she will see the small scale of the cabins, transitioning to the modest scale of the
parsonage and then transitioning to the larger scale of the community center. The building
form along the east fagade of the parsonage speaks directly to and is reminiscent of the
form of the east side of the Community Center building. The stone along the front of the
parsonage also echoes the stone along the western frontage of the community center. A
second option for the front fagade has also been provided, utilizing wood siding instead of
the stone if this is preferable to the HPC. All of these design elements help to integrate the
block into a unified project, and not just individual buildings clustered together on a small
campus.
The lower -sloping roof form that is proposed for the parsonage is a style that is present in
many buildings along Main Street. Several buildings in the immediate vicinity, including
the Mountain Rescue cabin across Main Street one of the cabins within the Christiana
complex across Fourth Street share similar roof pitches to that proposed herein. A photo
montage showing these roof forms has been provided in the drawing section of this
application.
The conformance of the amended parsonage with the City's applicable design guidelines
is addressed in greater detail in the following sections of this application.

Ill. Conformance With Historic Preservation Design Guidelines
Since this is a substantial amendment to an approved project, the review will focus on
the height, scale, massing, site plan, proportions and materials of the proposal.
Amended final approval by HPC is requested. The applicable review standard for this
review is a determination of consistency with the City of Aspen Historic Preservation
Design Guidelines (hereinafter "the Guidelines"). In considering whether the proposed
development is consistent with the Guidelines, the following statement, which appears
in the introduction to the Guidelines, must be taken into consideration:
"...not every guideline will apply to each project, and some balancing of
the guidelines must occur on a case -by -case basis. The HPC must
determine that a significant number of relevant guidelines have been
adequately met in order to approve a project proposal."
Based on the extent and type of development proposed for this site, Chapter 7 of the
Commercial, Lodging and Historic District Guidelines, Main Street Historic District,
(which supersedes Chapter 12 of the HPC Design Guidelines) and Chapter 11 of the
HPC Design Guidelines, New Buildings on Landmark Properties, contain the guidelines
applicable to the proposed development.
The responses that follow demonstrate the applicant's compliance with "a significant
number of the relevant guidelines" that apply to this project.
A. Chapter 7 - Main Street Historic District Guidelines
7.1 Preserve the historic district's street plan.
Response: No changes are proposed to the street grid for Main Street, Third Street, or
the alley.
7.2 Maintain the traditional character and function of an alley where it exists.
Response: No changes to the character or function of the alley will result from this
amendment. The applicant anticipates that cars will access the parsonage from the alley.
A one car garage will be attached to the rear of the structure and access will occur
between two of the cabins that are being preserved along the alley.
7.3 Parking shall not be positioned between the building and the street. Visual impacts
shall be minimized in one or more of the following ways:
♦ Parking shall be placed underground or in a structure wherever possible.
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 6
0 0
♦ Where surface parking must be provided, it shall be located to the rear or the
interior of the property, behind the structure.
♦ Surface parking shall be externally buffered with landscaping, and internally planted
and landscaped to soften parking areas.
Response: Parking will be provided in a one car garage attached to the rear of the
proposed parsonage. HPC previously established the parking required for the parsonage
by special review. HPC required one parking space to be provided for the parsonage.
There are also nine (9) spaces shown on the site plan that are dedicated to the Jewish
Community Center pursuant to the prior land use approvals it received.
7.4 Underground parking access shall not have a negative impact on the character of
the street.
Response: Underground parking access is not proposed for this property.
7.5 Respect historic settlement pattems.
Response: The proposed parsonage has been sited to respect historic settlement
patterns. The building will be oriented toward Main Street and will be parallel to Third
Street, with a covered front porch that faces directly toward Main Street. No change in the
approved location of the parsonage is proposed as part of this amendment application.
The parsonage has been sited mid -way between the cabins that line the site along Third
Street and the sanctuary along Fourth Street. This will establish yards on either side of the
parsonage, creating a play area for the children who are attending the pre-school and the
religious school in the main building and a play area for the Rabbi's family.
7.6 Where a sidewalk exists, maintain its historic material and position.
Response: The materials and position of the sidewalk that has been previously approved
for construction along Main Street will be maintained.
7.7 Minimize the use of curb cuts along the street.
Response: No new curb cuts are proposed along Main Street.
7.8 Provide a walk to the primary building entry, perpendicular from the public sidewalk.
Response: There will be a stone walkway provided from Main Street to the front porch
that is perpendicular to the sidewalk along Main Street.
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 7

7.9 Orient a new building in a manner that is similar to the orientation of buildings
during the mining era, with the primary entrance facing the street.
Response: The parsonage has been oriented parallel to the lot lines so as to maintain
the traditional grid pattern of this block. Its primary entrance faces and is visible from Main
Street. The building will have a single level covered porch that is of a scale that is
appropriate to a residence.
7.10 When constructing a new building, locate it to fit within the range of yard
dimensions seen in the block historically during the mining era.
Response: The applicant proposes a 16' front yard setback for the parsonage, which is
identical to the setback from Main Street that was previously approved for the parsonage.
7.11 Locate a new secondary structure in a manner that is similar to those seen
historically in the district.
Response: There is not a secondary structure proposed for the parsonage.
7.12 A new structure should step down in scale where it abuts a single story historic
structure.
Response: The scale of the single story historic cabins presents a challenge for
development of any new structure immediately to the west of the cabins. HPC
appropriately required a significant setback (more than 27) between the cabins and the
parsonage to help to establish a transition between these buildings. That setback is
maintained with the proposed amendment to the parsonage and establishes the setting in
which the compatibility of the scale of these buildings has been assured.
There are at least two significant ways in which the proposed parsonage steps down in
scale to meet the cabins. The approved parsonage included a one story covered porch
that was similar in scale to the small historic cabins. While that feature has been re-
designed in this proposal, it remains a one story element that is in scale with the cabins.
Furthermore, the proposed north-east rendering shows that there will also be a one story
element along the east facade of the parsonage, which steps down in scale to the cabins.
Each of these one story roof forms have the same pitch as the roof of the historic cabins.
Finally, it is important to point out that HPC previously found that the parsonage complied
with this standard. The proposed parsonage will be more than 12' lower than the
approved design, making the proposed parsonage design that much closer to the scale of
the historic cabins.
7.13 A new building or addition should reflect the range and variation in building height of
the Main Street Historic District.
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 8
0 0
7.14 Design a new building to appear similar in scale to those traditionally in the district
during the mining era.
Response: This portion of Main Street contains buildings that vary widely in scale. It
includes some of the larger historic residences in the Main Street Historic District and a
number of more modern commercial and lodge buildings that are also of a larger scale.
The Community Center building was designed to be compatible with the scale and height
of these larger traditional and modern buildings.
The western end of Main Street also includes a number of smaller, one story buildings,
including the log cabin at 300 West Main Street, the historic structures at 604 and 612
West Main Street, and the Mountain Rescue cabin. The historic cabins on the subject
property reflect this historic tradition of smaller Victorian and Rustic structures along Main
Street.
So the challenge for the parsonage is where it should fit within this wide range of very
small and relatively larger structures. The approved parsonage was designed to fit on the
upper end of this size spectrum. While it did not request any variations, it was designed to
be close to maximum allowed height in the zone district (28', measured to the 1/3 point of
the roof). So while the approved design provided a transition down from the scale of the
Community Center, it was designed to be closer in scale to the Community Center than it
was to the cabins or the other small scale buildings in the District.
The currently proposed parsonage is intended to fit more in the mid -range of the scale
between the height of the Community Center and the cabins and so clearly reflects the
range and variation of building height found along Main Street. As noted above, it has a
number of one story elements, which can be seen along its north, east and west facades.
Its peak height will be just 25.75' measured to the top of the skylight, well below that
allowed in the zone district and well within the range of heights found along Main Street.
Please see Sheet #28, which looks at the Parsonage from the Third Street side of the alley
and "airbrushes -in" the cabins, to get a sense of how the revised scale of the Parsonage
with its one story elements fits well with the scale of the cabins.
7.15 On larger structures, subdivide larger masses into smaller "modules" that are
similar in size to single family residences or Victorian era buildings seen traditionally
on Main Street.
Response: The mass of the parsonage has been subdivided into smaller modules in
several respects. First, the overall structure has been broken into two components — one
that is on a north/south axis and one that is on an east/west axis. The component that is
oriented east and west is set back from the front of the building by more than 25', giving it
a subordinate feel and allowing the mass that faces Main Street to be in scale with the
small cabins located along Third Street.
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 9
The mass has also been broken into smaller modules along its primary facades. The Main
Street fagade has the porch which presents a one-story form. The east and west -facing
facades also utilize rooms that step down to just a single story to break down the overall
mass of the project. The roof pitch of each of the one story elements has been designed
to match the roof pitch of the cabins.
B. Chapter 11 — New Buildings On Landmarked Properties
11.1 Orient the primary entrance of a new building to the street
Response: The entrance is oriented to Main Street.
11.2 In a residential context, clearly define the primary entrance to a new building by
using a front porch.
Response: The front porch entrance has been clearly defined.
11.3 Construct anew building to appear similar in scale with the historic buildings on the
parcel.
11.4 Design a front elevation to be similar in scale to the historic building.
Response: It is not possible to build a residence for a family that is of the same scale as
the small guest cabins on this site. However, the elevations show that the parsonage will
have a one story covered porch that is similar in scale to the cabins. It will also have a one
story element along its east -facing fagade that steps the building down to the scale of the
historic cabins.
Finally, as was pointed out with respect to standard 7.12 above, the approved parsonage
was found to also meet this standard. The proposed parsonage will be considerably lower
in height than the approved design, making it even more consistent with this standard.
11.5 Use building forms that are similar to those of the historic property.
11.6 Use roof forms that are similar to those seen traditionally in the block.
11.9 Use building components that are similar in size and shape to those of the historic
property.
Response: The amended parsonage design proposes simple forms and sizes that relate
to those of the cabins. The one story elements on the north, east, west elevations are of
similar scale to the cabins and have roof pitches that are similar. The architectural detailing
is spare and simple relating to but not imitating the details of the cabins. The roof pitch of
the one story east -facing element is the same as that of the historic cabins.
Amendment to Rabbi's Parsonage, Aspen Jewish Community Center Page 10
11.7 Roof materials should appear similar in scale and texture to those used
traditionally.
Response: The applicant anticipates installing a standing seam metal roof on the
parsonage.
11.8 Use building materials that contribute to a sense of human scale.
Response: The parsonage will be made primarily of wood and stone materials. As
labeled on the north elevation, the materials will include stained wood board and batten
siding, mesa verde stone veneer, wood timber columns, metal clad wood doors and
windows, metal flashing and copper gutters and a metal flue. The building will have a
street facing porch and street facing windows that are of human scale. The eave line of
the first story is articulated on all elevations. The applicant has provided two options for
the Main Street facade, one in stone and one using wood siding, to allow the HPC to
determine which creates a more appropriate image for this landmark property.
Samples of the proposed materials will be brought to the HPC hearing.
11.10 The imitation of older historic styles is discouraged.
Response: While the parsonage uses forms and materials that are reminiscent of the
historic resources of Main Street it represents a contemporary design that does not imitate
Victorian -era architecture.

RE: LETTER OF AUTHORIZATION FOR PARSONAGE AT ASPEN JEWISH
COMMUNITY CENTER
Dear Amy and Sara,
The Jewish Resource Center Chabad of Aspen is the owner of the Aspen Jewish
Community Center located at 435 West Main Street. I hereby authorize Alan Richman
