Project Engineer Roaring Fork Engineering (970)404— 1144 Jaye@rfeng.biz To: Mike Horvath Civil Engineer City of Aspen Engineering Department (970)429-2776 mike.horvath@cityofaspen.com April24t'', 2017 Permit No. 2017.01 200 S. Aspen St. Hotel Lenado Mike, I am requesting a variance for Hotel Lenado regarding the storm pipe entering the City of Aspen's Right of Way Criteria from which the applicant seeks a variance. In section Section 4.8.2: "Design Procedure and Constraints" it states that no pipes smaller than 15" reinforced concrete pipe shall be used within the right of way. Justification for not complying with the criteria We wish to connect the final out fall of the site storm drainage to the proposed curb inlet at the corner of S.Aspen St. and Hopkins Ave. Due to the alignment between this point of concentration for the site's storm water and the proposed City of Aspen Curb inlet there are numerous potential conflicts between the storm pipe and City utilities. There is a 12'x5' communication vault with fiber optic and cable/telephone lines just to the south west of the proposed curb inlet where we wish to tie our site drainage into. There is also a proposed water line just east of the proposed storm drain. Reducing the size of this pipe will greatly limit the probability for conflicts and costly relocation of vital communication lines. The water lines can't move east due to large cotton woods. Reducing the size of this pipe will also increase separation between all utilities in the area. Supporting Documentations See the Civil Set included with this submittal. Potential adverse impacts for proposed variance and alternate criteria on downstream water bodies public and private. There are no known impacts from the proposed variance. Please call with any questions, I look forward to your response. Tyler City of Aspen Received 4/24/17 Building Department
