SITE OF APPROVAL: 10 Club Circle

Zoning: Park (P) with a Planned Development Overlay
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY:
The Maroon Creek Club Subdivision Planned Development (PD) was approved by the Pitkin
County Board of County Commissioners in 1993. The City of Aspen annexed the subdivision in
1996 and the previously approved PD carried over. The PD includes forty-three (43) single family
lots, thirty-seven (37) townhomes, thirty-nine (39) employee housing units, a Grand Champions
Club (Clubhouse), a golf course, and various trail improvements. A number of PD amendments
have been approved since the subdivision's annexation.
The Applicant is requesting an Insubstantial PD Amendment and a Commercial Design Review
for the Maroon Creek Club Clubhouse for changes in fenestration to the front facade, north facade
of the bar area, improvements to the auto court, pedestrian walkway, and the addition of solar
panels on the rooftop of the Clubhouse.

The Applicant proposes to update the window and doors of the main entry from a single double
door to two double doors. A new entry on the front fagade will be added to access the pro -shop,
and the new entry is proposed to be located at the center section of the front fapade of the building.
The Applicant proposes to make changes on the north fapade of the building's bar area which
includes new windows, siding, and doors. These materials will match existing and will serve to
provide exterior access and seating for patrons from the inside bar area. The pro -shop and bar area
will be relocated in the interior of the Clubhouse as these exterior changes are made.
The auto court improvements will reduce the overall size of the auto court on the front entry and
increase the pedestrian access by an equal amount to that of the reduction. Paving of the golf cart
parking and around the lap pool and driving range will also be part of the pedestrian improvements.
The sidewalk between the tennis court and Clubhouse will be widened by one (1) foot in width for
a five (5) foot walkway.
Solar panels are planned to be placed on the main section of the Clubhouse, set back from street
view. Per Section 26.575.020.F.4.f Energy Efficiency or Renewable Energy Production Systems
and Equipment, solar panels located on top of a building may extend up to six (6) feet above the
height of the building at the point the equipment is attached. The proposed solar panels are
represented to be within the allowable six feet of the rooftop.
All proposed alterations are illustrated in Exhibit A, Application and Approved Plans.
STAFF EVALUATION:
Land Use Code Section 26.445.11 O.A regulates Insubstantial Amendments to an approved Planned
Development as authorized by the Community Development Director. The Director finds the
proposed exterior alterations satisfy the review criteria (Exhibit B) for an Insubstantial Planned
Development Amendment as the proposed alterations are minor in nature and do not change the
character, use, or massing of the Clubhouse.
Land Use Code Section 26.412.090 regulates Insubstantial Amendments to an approved
Commercial Design Review, as authorized by the Community Development Director. The
Director finds that the proposed alterations satisfy the relevant Commercial Design Guidelines and
review criteria (Exhibit Q. The proposed materials and design are consistent with the existing
design and materials. The updates will be of the same style and materials used throughout the
building, these include pallet of stacked stone, natural wood posts and beams, metal bracketry and
steel and wood trimmed windows.
DECISION:
The Community Development Director finds the administrative application for an
Insubstantial Planned Development Amendment and an Insubstantial Amendment to an
approved Commercial Decision Review as noted above, to be consistent with the applicable
review criteria and thereby, APPROVES the request.
