Request Summary
This change order application describes the adjustments to the previously approved
building permit. The location of the property is 675 and 605 S Alps Road. The adjusted
landscape and engineering sheets(s) are shown on L.1.02 and detail 2/L.5.01 of the
attached Landscape Documents and C4 and C5 of the attached Engineering
Documents.
Background and Existing Conditions
The Moses Lot split, which sits in close proximity to Aspen Mountain is nestled among the
Aspen Alps Development. The plat for the lot split is dated October 14, 2013. Both Lots 1+
2 are owned by Icie Jackson LLC. There is a remodeled residence on Lot 2, that was
completed in 2016 and Lot 1 currently serves primarily as a lawn area/yard for that
residence. There is no primary use established on Lot 1, therefore development is limited.
The zone district for both lots is R-15/PD.
Lot 1(605 S Alps Road) is 15,071.73 square feet and Lot 2 (675 S Alps Road) is 54,761.68
square feet and includes a building envelope that is 11,885.10 square feet.
Proposed Change
The original design proposed the demo of the existing stone paver steps illustrated on
page L.1.01 and proposed sod steps adjacent to the existing residence to replace the
former stone steps.
The revised design, proposes sod terraces (as illustrated in 2/L.5.01). The team believes
that the sod terraces will be both more straightforward to install, maintain and ultimately
be the most successful design for both the landscape and users in the long term.

The client desires a larger flat sod area adjacent to the upper existing patio and
therefore, the sod terraces now start further north and ultimately three large terraces will
transition the user from the upper patio area to the lower patio. The design intent to
gracefully feather the grade back into the existing hillside is maintained.
Summary
This letter of application has described the proposed adjustments to development on
