Memorandum
TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Commission
FROM: Sarah Yoon, Historic Preservation Planner
THROUGH: Amy Simon, Interim Planning Director/Historic Preservation Officer
MEETING DATE: September 9, 2020
RE: 202 East Main Street – Extension of Conceptual Major Development
approval
SUMMARY: 202 E. Main Street received HPC Conceptual approval on October 9, 2019 for a
new rear addition to the historic home. The application was not called up by City Council during
the December 10, 2019 hearing.
All applicants have one year from the date of Conceptual review to submit a Final review
application. A six-month extension of the HPC approval is requested.
Section 26.415.070.D.3.c.3 of the Municipal Code states:
Unless otherwise specified in the resolution granting conceptual development plan
approval, a development application for a final development plan shall be submitted
within one (1) year of the date of approval of a conceptual development plan. Failure to
file such an application within this time period shall render null and void the approval of
the conceptual development plan. The Community Development Director may grant an
extension of this limitation if the delay has been caused by the application requiring
additional reviews or similar delays that could not have been reasonably predicted by
the applicant. The Historic Preservation Commission may, at its sole discretion and for
good cause shown, grant a one-time extension of the expiration date for a
conceptual development plan approval for up to six (6) months provided a written request
for extension is received no less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date.
STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends HPC grant a six-month extension of
Conceptual approval to allow the applicant to further develop the proposal. The new deadline to
submit a final application would be April 9, 2021.
