Aspen City Council
Planning Office (KS)
RF: Subdivision Exemption Applications:
Moore Duplex
Heller Triplex
Carter Duplex
DATE: November 9, 1977
Over the last several weeks, the Planning and Zoning Commission has
considered several subdivision exemption applications involving two
duplexes and one triplex. Each of them requests permission to condo-
miniumize. Because City Council has not acted'on the proposed condo-
miniumization ordinance, the City Attorney has advised us that we may
not consider any factors regarding the conversion's impact on the
supply of low and moderate income housing other than adopted Council
policy to condition such conversions on a 90 day right of first refusal,
six month minimum lease restriction, and payment of the appropriate
park dedication fee. The details of each application are summarized
below. The Planning Office will bring copies of the improvement
survey to your meeting.
MOORE DUPLEX
This duplex owned by Barabar McLaughlin Moore is located at 810 West
Smuggler, Lots P and Q, Block 8, of the original Aspen townsite. The
lot constitutes 6,000 square feet, which in the R-6 zone district, is
substandard in size by 3,000 square feet.
It has been the practice of the City not to look to zoning compliance
when reviewing subdivision exemption for condominiumizations of existing
buildings. The standard rather has been compliance with subdivision
design standards such as (1) roads, paving, and curbs; (2) land surveys,
and (3) proper utilities access and easements. The City Engineer, by
memorandum dated October 11, 1977, has certified that the improvement
survey shows such conformance. He noted, however, that the second story
balcony is built at the property line in violation of the side setback
requirement of five feet. Planning and Zoning discussed this peculiarity,
but determined, again, that this was a matter of zoning non-compliance
of an existing structure and that it was not warranted or appropriate to
deal with it through the subdivision exemption procedure.
In view of the application's compliance with subdivision design standards,
full subdivision processing is not necessary. The change in form of
ownership does not have any additional land use impacts and thus
exemption from the full procedure is appropriate.
The Planning and Zoning Commission therefore recommended approval at
their October 18th regular meeting subject to:
1. The 6 month minimum lease restriction.
2. 90 day right of first refusal to existing tenants.
3. payment of the appropriate park dedication fee (which the
City Manager and the Planning Office have checked and
certified).
Memorandum
Page Two
November 9, 1977
One final condition attached by the Planning and Zoning Commission was
to correct any single family deed restriction pertaining'to the property.
One P&Z member pointed out that he believed there was such a deed
restriction. 11s. Moore's attorney, however, has not found such to
exist and we are.checking further with the City Attorney.
We have also.asked Clayton Meyring to'inspect the premises and certify
that an illegal. third unit in the basement has been removed.
In summary, then, there are 5 conditions that might be attached to any
approval.
HELLER TRIPLEX
Nick Heller requests subdivision exemption to condominiumize'a triplex
located on Lots R and S, Block 113, Aspen, just northwest of the corner
of Waters Aven6e and West End Street. Zoning for the area is RMF. The
lot is 6,9UO square feet; if zoning compliance were an issue here, the
lot would be only slightly deficient as three 2-bedroom units would
require 6,300 square feet.
The City Engineer has reviewed the plat and indicates that most engine-
ering concerns are satisfied. Dave Ellis does ask that a condition of
subdivision exemption approval be construction of a sidewalk along the
West End Street frontage.
The applicant has provided us additional information regarding disposi-
tion of the units, each of which is 800 square feet. Mr. Heller
currently resides in one and will continue to do so, he plans to rent
long term the second. The third unit will be sold at the price of
approximately $65,000.
Inasmuch as the intent of the subdivision regulations have been met,
the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval at their October
18th meeting subject to:
1. 6 month lease restriction
2. 90 day right of first refusal to existing tenants
3. payment of the park dedication fee
4. Satisfaction of the City Engineer's requirement of a
sidewalk
+CARTER DUPLEX
The Carter duplex is located on a 6,000 square foot lot in the R-6 zone
district at 729 West Francis Street. Annie and Harvey Carter are
asking subdivision exemption approval in order to condominiumize the
seven -year -old two story structure. Dave Ellis has made a site inspec-
tion and reviewed the improvement survey and makes favorable comment.
We again find that the change in ownership has no additional land use
impact, and inasmuch as the intent of the subdivision regulations have
been met, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of
the exemption at their November 1st meetint subject to:
1. Six month minimum lease restriction
2. 90 day right of first refusal to existing tenants
3. Payment of the appropriate park dedication fee

Regular Meeting Planning and Zoning Commission November 1, 1977
questioned the public benefit. Klar asked if he foresaw any problems.
He said no but questioned the real need for it. Klar disagreed.
Isaac felt the location and scope of the C-1 district is such that
the community would not be hurt by having such a use in this district.
The wording of the amendment is such that it limits the uses strictly.
Schuhmacher noted that to say "non -tourist" does not mean much any
snore as there are many locals now. Klar said that they have been
this close to amending this issue before and now that they have it
down, they should approve it. Schuhmacher asked what Webster's dis-
tinction is between "menu" and "fare" as this was one of the word
changes in the amendment. Smith said that was a suggestion by
City Attorney, Dorothy Nuttall.
Isaac moved to recommend to City Council that they find as a condi-
tional use in the C-1 district a coffee shop or food service intend-
ed as a non -tourist oriented sit-down facility with a limited fare
of specialty items, to be served as accompaniments to such activities
as reading, playing chess or other passive activity, and provided
that the operation: 1. Has no kitchen, 2. No food preparation
other than warming on the premises, 3. No liquor serviced on premise:
Klar seconded. All in favor, motion carried.
Baranko re-entered the meeting.
Music Studio for
Smith explained the application. This application is proposed for
Classical Records -
the former Aspen Valley Realty in the Victorian on the corner of
Use Determination
7th and Main. The proposal is for a music salon with a library -type
in 0-Office District
atmosphere where listening will be encouraged in addition to selling
records and tapes. The Board is to find it compatible with permitter:
uses in this district. She said it is a justified application. Musi
studios are a permitted use although this is not specifically a studi
as they are intended for instruction. She recommended against
tabling this case even though the two applicants could not attend thi.
meeting.
Hedstrom asked if this wasn't just an application for a record store
that is glossed over with words like "salon" and "classical music"
but is essentially a record store. Smith said basically, yes. She
said that the Board had seen the same application in another distric
that turned out poorly due to misrepresentation. This application i
entirely different.
Isaac asked about parking. Smith said it was a potential problem.
This would be resolved in the conditional use hearing. There are
5 or 6 spaces there now shared with the Hickory House which uses mo:
of them.
Schuhmacher asked if they intended to use the entire building. SmP
said yes, the first floor for the studio and the second for re 4 id el:,
and their offices.

RE: Carter Duplex Condominiumization
DATE: October 27, 1977
Annie and Harvey Carter are requesting subdivision exemption for the
condominiumization of thier duplex at 729 West Francis Street. The duplex
was constructed seven years ago and is zoned R-6. They argue that full
subdivision reviews are not warranted inasmuch as the improvement exists
and no additional land use, density, or resource impact is involved.
Pending comment to the contrary by the City Engineer, we would agree
with the justification for exemption and recommend approval subject to:
1. Payment of the park dedication fee
2. Six month minimum lease restriction
3. 90 day right of first refusal to existing tenants
City Council has not acted on first reading of the condominiumization
ordinance, so no further information relevant to the housing impact of
the conversion has been requested.

Re: Annie and Harvey Carter
Dear Ms. Smith:
Please consider this letter a formal application to the Aspen Planning
& Zoning Commission for an exemption from the term "subdivision", as
defined in the Aspen Municipal Code Sec. 20-3 (5), with respect to the
proposed condominiumization of the existing two-family dwelling ("duplex")
located at 729 West Francis Street and situated on Lots C and D, Block 16,
City of Aspen. This duplex has been in existence for over seven years
and has been used as a two-family dwelling for the same period. The prop-
erty is presently zoned R-6 Residential, and a duplex structure is a per-
mitted use under the applicable zoning regulations. The condominiumization,
then, is solely for purposes of modifying the nature of ownership of this
structure, and will involve no additional land use, density or resource
impact.
For the foregoing reasons, it is respectfully submitted the contemplated
"division" does not fallwithin the intent or purpose of Aspen's Subdivi-
sion Regulations, which are expressly designed to assist the orderly,
efficient and integrated development of the City of Aspen, to insure the
proper distribution of population, to coordinate the need for public
services, and to encourage well -planned subdivision.
Current City policy allows an exemption from subdivision requirements for
the condominiumization of existing duplex structures, and it is further
submitted that there is no meaningful distinction between such an exemp-
tion and the exemption of a duplex to be constructed in the near future.
We would appreciate your earnest consideration of this application.
Sincerely yours ,
it � cZr�.i.c�-lr
