PRE-APPLICATION CONFERENCE SUMMARY
PLANNER: Sarah Yoon, sarah.yoon@cityofaspen.com
DATE: February 10, 2020
PROJECT LOCATION: 134 E. Bleeker Street
REQUEST: ADU Removal
DESCRIPTION: 134 E. Bleeker Street is a 4,500 square foot corner lot located in the R-6 zone district. The
property is a designated landmark and contains two Victorian era buildings that have been relocated to this
site from another location. The secondary historic structure is located towards the alley and received
conditional use approval as an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in 1992. The deed restriction identifies this
detached carriage house ADU as a 307 sf studio (Reception # 346778).
The removal of the deed restriction, pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.520.090.C, is an administrative
process. The applicant shall provide mitigation for 0.38 Category 2 full-time equivalent employees in the
form of Affordable Housing Certificates or fee-in-lieu. The current fee-in-lieu rate for Category 2 is
$342,599.02, per FTE so mitigation by that method would be 0.38 x $342,599.02 = $130,187.62.
Additionally, the applicant shall obtain a building permit to verify the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) has
been decommissioned. A final inspection shall be issued prior to the release of the deed restriction. The
release shall be accepted by the City Attorney and filed with the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder.
Following are the relevant sections of the Municipal Code and details on how to move forward.
