MEMORANDUM
TO: Stan Clauson, Community Development Director
THRU: Julie Ann Woods, Deputy Dir or •
FROM: Christopher Bendon, Planner
RE: Towne Place Condominiumization Plat
DATE: August 11, 1997
Michael Herron, representing Towne Place L.L.C., has applied for a subdivision
exemption for the Condominiumization of Towne Place of Aspen at 204 East Durant
Avenue. Currently the project is owned by a limited liability partnership. I have referred
this application to the Development Review Committee and the applicant has responded
to the suggested modifications to the draft plat. There are no other proposed
improvements to the site, it is a permitted use in the L/TR zone district, and there are no
other land use issues involved or approvals required. The Community Development
Director may approve subdivision exemptions pursuant to Section 26.88.070. I am
recommending approval of this condominiumization with no conditions.

written acceptance, shall authorize the release from the guarantee delivered by Owner of the
agreed estimated cost for that portion of the improvements, except that ten percent (10%) of the
estimate cost shall be withheld until all proposed public improvements are completed and
approved by the City Engineer. For purposes of arriving at the amount of the financial
guarantee that shall be posted by the Owner, the cost of the public improvements, as .above set
forth, shall be increased by the cumulative increase occurring between the date hereof and the

its share of the costs associated with the abandonment of the existing 6" water line in Durant

-7-
t3_070 B-78 P-100 1z)6/09: 9 � 07,:�4C:,I F43 3 OF c'_8
unequivocal default by Owner, to withdraw funds as necessary partially or fully to complete or
pay for any landscaping improvements or for the maintenance thereof or pay any undisputed
outstanding bills, with any excess guarantee amount to be applied first to additional
administrative or legal costs associated with any such default before the unused remainder (if
any) of such guarantee is released to Owner. As portions of the landscaping improvements are
completed, either the City Engineer or the Park's Department shall inspect them, and upon
approval and acceptance, shall authorize the release of the agreed estimated for that portion of
the improvements, except that ten percent (10 %) shall be withheld until all proposed landscaping

OF L':::8
The affordable housing units shall not be sold as appurtenances to the free market units. They
may be sold to qualified individuals or conveyed to an association of the free market unit
owners, which will oversee the rental of the affordable housing units to qualified individuals
pursuant to the applicable deed restriction. Those tenants of the Property as of December 12,
1994 shall, by the Housing Authority Board, be given the first priority to rent the affordable
housing units at such time as they become available for rental; provided that the Housing
Authority Board shall have the right first to confirm that such tenants are otherwise qualified
pursuant to the applicable Housing Office Guidelines.
Prior to the issuance of a building permit for any portion of the Project, the Owner shall
redesign the entry into the affordable housing units to assure that any sloping roof does not shed
snow onto the entry way.
I. NON-COMPLIANCE AND REQUESTS FOR
AMENDMENTS OR EXTENSIONS BY OWNER
In the event the City Council determines that Owner is not acting in substantial
compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the City Council may issue and serve upon Owner
a written order specifying the alleged non-compliance and requiring Owner to remedy the same
within such reasonable time as the City Council may determine. Within twenty (20) days of the
receipt of such order, Owner may file with the City Council either a notice advising the City
Council that it is in compliance, or a written petition requesting a hearing to determine any one
or both of the following matters:
(i) whether the alleged non-compliance exists or did exist, or
M
(ii) whether a variance, extension of time, or amendment to this Agreement
should be granted with respect to any such non-compliance which is
determined to exist.
Upon the receipt of such petition, City Council shall promptly schedule a hearing to consider
the matters set forth in the notice and in the petition. The hearing shall be convened and
conducted pursuant to the procedures normally established by the City Council for other
hearings. If the City Council determines by a preponderance of the evidence that a non-
compliance exists which has not been remedied, it may issue such orders as may be appropriate;
provided, however, no order terminating any approval granted herein shall be issued without a
finding by the City that substantial evidence warrants such action and affording Owner a
reasonable time to remedy such non-compliance. A final determination of non-compliance,
which has not been remedied or for which no variance has been granted may, at the option of
the City Council, and upon notice to Owner, terminate any of the approvals contained herein

Section 7.1 Obligation to Pay Common Expense Assessments. Declarant, for
each Unit, shall be deemed to covenant and agree, and each Unit Owner, by
acceptance of a deed therefore, whether or not it shall be so expressed in any such
deed or other conveyance, shall be deemed to covenant and agree to pay to the
Association Common Expense assessments imposed by the Association against said
Unit. Such assessments, including fees, charges, late charges, attorney's fees, fines and
interest charged by the Association shall also be the personal obligation of the Unit
Owner of such Unit at the time when the assessment or other charges become due.
Where there are multiple Owners of a Unit, the obligation to pay assessments shall be
joint and several. The personal obligation to pay any past due sums due the
Association shall not pass to a successor in title unless expressly assumed by them. No
Unit Owner may become exempt from liability for payment of the Common Expense
mjhVownepk\dots\condo. de3 9
assessments by waiver of the use or enjoyment of the Common Elements or by
abandonment of the Unit against which the Common Expense assessments are made.
All assessments shall be payable in the amounts specified in the levy thereof, and no
offsets or reduction thereof shall be permitted by any reason including, without
limitation, any claim that the Association or the Executive Board is not properly
exercising its duties and powers under this Declaration.
Section 7.2 Apportionment of Common Expenses. Except as provided in this
Section 7.2 or elsewhere in this Declaration, Common Expense assessments shall be
assessed against all Units in accordance with the formula for liability for the Common
Expenses as set forth in Exhibit "B" of this Declaration.
(a) Any Common Expense associated with the maintenance, repair, or
replacement of a Limited Common Element shall be assessed against the Units to which
that Limited Common Element is assigned, equally, or in any other proportion that the
Executive Board deems equitable;
(b) Any Common Expense or portion thereof benefitting fewer than
all of the Units shall be assessed exclusively against the Units benefitted;
(c) Any Common Expense for services provided by the Association to
an individual Unit at the request of the Unit Owner may be assessed against that Unit
only;
(d) The cost of insurance shall be assigned in proportion to risk. Any
insurance premium increase attributable to a particular Unit by virtue of activities in
or construction of the Unit shall be assessed against that Unit;
(e) An assessment to pay a judgment against the Association may be
made only against the Units in the Common Interest Community at the time the
judgement was entered, in proportion to their Common Expense liabilities;
(f) If a Common Expense is caused by the misconduct of a Unit
Owner, the Association may assess that expense exclusively against that Unit Owner
and their Unit;
(g) Fees, charges, taxes, impositions, late charges, fines, collection costs
and interest charged against a Unit Owner pursuant to Section 7.5 below or elsewhere
in the Declaration shall be collectable as Common Expense assessments;
mh\cownepk\doa\condo.de3 10
Section 7.3 Purpose of Assessments. The assessments levied by the Association
through its Executive Board shall be used exclusively for the purposes of promoting the
health, safety, and welfare of the members of the Association. Such purposes shall
include, but shall not be limited to the following: (a) the improvement, maintenance,
repair, upkeep and reconstruction of the Common Elements; or (b) for the painting,
landscape care and snow removal and any other maintenance obligations which may
be deemed desirable for the common benefit of the Unit Owners; or (c) for the
maintenance of property values; or (d) for payment of expenses which may be
incurred by virtue of agreement with or requirement of any governmental authority;
or (e) to hire a manager to perform all of the tasks of the Association which are legally
delegable to a manager. The assessments may also be used to provide insurance of
various types and in such amounts deemed appropriate by the Executive Board. Also,
a portion of the assessments may be used to provide a reserve fund for the
replacement, repair, and maintenance of Common Elements which must be replaced
or refurbished on a periodic basis. All income received from the Affordable Housing
Units shall be used by the Association to offset the Unit Owners' obligation for
Common Expenses.
Section 7.4 Adoption of Budget. Within thirty (30) days after adoption of any
proposed budget for the Common Interest Community, the Executive Board shall mail,
by ordinary first-class mail or otherwise deliver, a summary of the budget to all the
Unit Owners and shall set a date for a meeting of the Unit Owners to consider
ratification of the budget not less than fourteen (14) nor more than sixty (60) days
after mailing or other delivery of the summary. Unless at that meeting, the affirmative
vote of the Unit Owners to which sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66.2/3%) or more
of the votes in the Association are allocated reject the budget, the budget is ratified,
whether or not a quorum is present. In the event that the proposed budget is rejected,
the periodic budget as ratified by the Unit Owners will be continued until such time
as the Unit Owners ratify a subsequent budget proposed by the Executive Board.
Section 7.5 Annual Assessment/Commencement of Common Expense.
Common Expense assessments may be made on an annual basis against all Units and
shall be based upon the Association's budget of the cash requirements needed by it to
provide for the administration and performance of its duties during such assessment
year. Common Expense assessments shall be due and payable in monthly, quarterly,
or annual installments, or in any other manner, as determined by the Executive Board.
Common Expense assessments may begin on the first day of the month in which
conveyance of the first Unit to a Unit Owner other than the Declarant occurs. The
omission or failure of the Executive Board to levy assessments for any period shall not
mjh\cowneplc\does\condo.de3 I
be deemed a waiver, modification or a release of the Unit Owners from their
obligation to pay assessments for such period.
Section 7.6 Effect of Non -Payment of Assessments. Any assessments, changes
or fees provided for in this Declaration, or any monthly or other installments thereof,
which is not fully paid within ten (10) days after the due date thereof, as established
by the Executive Board, shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per
annum from the due date, and the Association may assess a reasonable late charge
thereon as determined by the Executive Board. Failure to make payment within sixty
(60) days of the due date thereof shall cause the total amount of such Unit Owner's
Common Expense Assessment for the remainder of that fiscal year to become
immediately due and payable at the option of the Executive Board. Further, the
Association may bring an action at law or in equity, or both, against any Unit Owner
personally obligated to pay such overdue assessments, charges or fees, or monthly or
other installments thereof, and may also proceed to foreclose its lien against such Unit
Owner's Unit. An action at law or in equity by the Association against a Unit Owner
to recover a money judgement for unpaid assessments, charges or fees, or monthly or
other installments thereof, may be commenced and pursued to the Association without
foreclosing, or in any way waiving, the Association's lien therefor. Foreclosure or
attempted foreclosure by the Association of its lien shall not be deemed to estop or
otherwise preclude the Association from thereafter again foreclosing or attempting to
foreclose its lien for any subsequent assessments, charges or fees, or monthly or other
installments thereof, which are not fully paid when due.
Section 7.7 Special Assessments. In addition to the annual or regular
assessments, the Association may establish at any time a special assessment for the
purpose of paying or creating a reserve for, in whole or in part, the cost of any
expense which the Association is entitled to incur pursuant to the provisions of the
Declaration, the Articles or the Bylaws and which is not scheduled to be paid in a
Budget adopted by the Association. No special assessment may be levied by the
Association unless such special assessment has been approved by the Executive Board
and by the majority vote of the Owners present in person or proxy at a meeting called
for such purpose at which a quorum was present.
Section 7.8 The Association's Lien. The Association shall have from the date
of recording of this instrument a lien against each Unit to secure payment to the
Association of all assessments with respect to such Unit, interest thereon and all costs
and expenses of collecting such assessments and charges including reasonable attorney's
fees. The Association's lien shall be prior and superior to all other liens and
encumbrances on a Unit except: (a) liens and encumbrances recorded prior to the
mjhVowneD1c\does\condo.de3 12
recordation of this instrument; (b) the Security Interest of a first lien or with respect
to such Unit except to the extent specified in the Act; (c) liens for real estate taxes and
other governmental charges against such Unit; and (d) mechanic's and materialman's
liens which by law may be prior to the Association's lien. The Association's lien shall
attach from the date of recording of this instrument and shall be considered perfected
without the necessity of recording a notice of lien. Nevertheless, the Association may
record in the real estate records of Pitkin County, Colorado, a notice of lien which
shall be executed by an officer or director of the Association and which shall contain
substantially the following information: (i) the legal description of the Unit against
which the lien is claimed; (ii) the name of the defaulting Owner of such Unit as
indicated by the Association's records; (iii) the total unpaid amount together with
interest thereon and costs of collection as of the date of such notice; (iv) a statement
that the notice of lien is made by the Association pursuant to the Declaration; and (v)
a statement that a lien is claimed and will be foreclosed against such Unit in an amount
equal to the amount stated as then due and any additional amounts thereafter
becoming due. No failure or omission of the Association to file any notice of lien shall
affect the validity, priority or enforceability of such lien. The Association's lien may
be foreclosed upon in the manner provided by Colorado for the foreclosure of
mortgages encumbering real property. In any such foreclosure, the Owner of the Unit
subject to such foreclosure shall be required to pay the costs and expenses of'such
proceedings, including reasonable attorney's fees. The Association shall be entitled to
purchase the Unit at any foreclosure sale, and to hold, lease, mortgage or convey the
same. In any such foreclosure action, the Court may appoint a receiver to collect all
sums alleged to be due from the Owner prior to or during the pendency of such
foreclosure or action. The Court may order the receiver so appointed to pay any sums
held by such receiver to the Association during the pendency of such foreclosure to
the extent of the unpaid assessments and charges.
Section 7.9 Statement of Unpaid Assessments. The Association shall furnish
to an Owner of a Unit or its designee or to a holder of a Security Interest or its
designee, upon written request, delivered personally or by certified mail, first-class
postage prepaid, return receipt requested to the Association's registered agent, a
written statement setting forth the amount of the unpaid assessments, if any, with
respect to such Unit. Such statement shall be furnished within fourteen (14) calendar
days after receipt of the request and is binding upon the Association, the Executive
Board and every Unit Owner. If no statement is furnished to the requesting party
delivered personally or by certified mail, first-class postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, to the inquiring party, then the Association shall have no right to assert a
lien upon the Unit for unpaid assessments which were due as of the date of the
request.
mjh\towneDk\dots\condo.de3 13
Section 7.10 Working Fund. The Association or Declarant may require
each initial Unit Owner (other than Declarant) to make a non-refundable payment to
the Association in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the annual
Common Expense assessment against that Unit in effect at the initial closing thereof,
which sum shall be held, without interest, by the Association as a working fund. Said
working fund shall be collected and transferred to the Association at the time of closing
of the initial sale by Declarant of each Unit, as aforesaid, and shall be maintained for
the use and benefit of the Association. Such payment shall not relieve a Unit Owner
from making regular payments of assessments as the same become due. Upon the
transfer of its Unit such Owner shall be entitled to a credit from their transferee for
any unused portion of the aforesaid working fund. This account may be updated
annually as of December 31 st, and notice shall be given to all Unit Owners whose
individual account does not equal twenty-five percent (25%) of the current annual
assessment. Payment of any shortage shall be due with the next regular assessment
payment, following written notice.

Insurance
Section 10.1 Insurance Carried. The Association shall obtain and maintain in
full force and effect to the extent reasonably available, and at all times, the insurance
coverage set forth herein and as set forth in the Act, which insurance coverage shall
be provided by financially responsible and able companies duly authorized to do
business in the State of Colorado. Commencing not later than the time of the first
conveyance of a Unit to a person other than Declarant, the Association shall maintain,
to the extent reasonably available, policies with the following terms or provisions:
(a) All policies of insurance shall contain waivers of subrogation and
waivers of any defense based on invalidity arising from any acts of a Unit Owner and
shall provide that such policies may not, unless otherwise provided by statute, be
canceled or not renewed without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to all
of the Unit Owners, holders of first lien Security Interests and the Association.
mjh\cownep1c\doa\condo.de3 18
(b) If requested, duplicate originals of all policies and renewals thereof
or certificates or memoranda of insurance, together with proof of payments of
premiums, shall be delivered to any Unit Owner or holder of a first lien Security
Interests.
(c) All liability insurance shall be carried in blanket form covering
Declarant, the Association, the Executive Board, the managing agent, if any, and their
respective employees, agents and all persons acting as agents.
(d) Prior to obtaining any policy of property insurance or renewal
thereof, pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Executive Board may obtain an appraisal
from a duly qualified real estate or insurance appraiser, which appraiser shall reasonably
estimate the full replacement value of the Units and the Common Elements, without
deduction for depreciation and shall review any increases in the cost of living, and/or
consider other factors for the purpose of determining the amount of the insurance to
be effected pursuant to the provisions hereof. The total mount of property insurance
must not be less than full insurable replacement cost (at the time of purchase of
insurance and at each renewal date) less applicable deductions exclusive of land,
excavations, foundations and other items normally excluded.
(e) Unit Owners may carry and are advised to carry other insurance
for their benefit and at their expense, provided that the liability of the carriers issuing
insurance obtained by the Association shall not be affected or diminished by reason of
any such additional insurance carried by Unit Owners and provided, further, that the
policies of insurance carried by the Association shall be primary, even if a Unit Owner
has other insurance that covers the same loss or losses as covered by policies of the
Association. In this regard, Declarant discloses that the Association's insurance
coverage, as specified hereunder and under the Act, does not obviate the need for
Unit Owners to obtain insurance for their own benefit.
(f) All policies of insurance shall provide that the insurance thereunder
shall be invalidated or suspended only in respect to the interest of any particular Unit
Owner guilty of a breach of warranty, act, omission, negligence or non-compliance of
any provision of such policy, including payment of the insurance premium applicable
to the Unit Owner's interest, or who permit or fails to prevent the happening of any
event, whether occurring before or after a loss, which under the provisions of such
policy would otherwise invalidate or suspend the entire policy, but the insurance under
any such policy, as to the interests of all other insured Unit Owners not guilty of any
such act or omission, shall not be invalidated or suspended and shall remain in full
force and effect.

Section 10.2 Property Insurance on the Units and Common Elements. The
Association shall obtain adequate property insurance covering loss, damage or
destruction by fire or other casualty to the Units, to the Common Elements and the
other property of the Association. The insurance obtained on the Units is not required
to include improvements and betterments installed by Unit Owners. If coverage
purchased by the Association includes improvements and betterments installed by Unit
Owners, the cost thereof shall be assessed to each Unit in proportion to risk. All
policies shall contain a standard non-contributory mortgage clause in favor of each
holder of first lien Security Interests, and their successors and assigns, which shall
provide that the loss, if any thereunder, shall be payable to the Association for the use
and benefit of such holders of first lien Security Interests, and their successors and
assigns, as their interests may appear of record in the records of the office of the Clerk
and Recorder of the County of Pitkin, Colorado.
Section 10.3 Liability Insurance. The Association shall obtain adequate
comprehensive policy of public liability insurance against claims and liabilities arising
in connection with the ownership, existence, use and management of the Common

FOR AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT AT THE McLEAN/MARGERUM
RESIDENCE LOCATED AT 627 WEST SMUGGLER STREET,
LOT 1, OXLEY LOT SPLIT, CITY OF ASPEN
Resolution 97- Q3
WHEREAS, The Community Development Department received an application from
Mr. Chuck McLean and Mrs. Amy Margerum, owners, for a Conditional Use Review for a
below -grade Accessory Dwelling Unit having approximately four hundred fifty one (451) square
feet; and
WHEREAS, the applicants requested approval of a proposed design for a single-family
residence on the property located at 627 West Smuggler Street; and
WHEREAS, Pursuant to Section 26.40.090 of the Aspen Municipal Code, Accessory
Dwelling Units may be approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission as Conditional Uses
in conformance with the requirements of said Section; and
WHEREAS, the Housing Office, City Engineering, Parks Department and Community
Development Department reviewed the proposal and recommended approval with conditions;
and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 26.58.020(B) of the Aspen Municipal Code,
Community Development Department staff also reviewed the applicant's application for
compliance with the Residential Design Standards of Section 26.58.040 of the Aspen Municipal
Code and found the submitted development application to be inconsistent with the Standard
26.58.040(F)(12), Volume, of the Aspen Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, Section 26.58.020(B)(2) of the Aspen Municipal Code provides that if an
application is found by staff to be inconsistent with any item of the Residential Design
Guidelines, the applicant may either amend the application or appeal staffs findings to the
Planning and Zoning Commission pursuant to Chapter 26.22, Design Review Appeal Board, and
WHEREAS all applications for appeal from the Residential Design Standards of Section
26.58.040 must meet one of the following statements in order for the Planning and Zoning
Commission to grant an exception, namely the proposal must:
a) yield greater compliance with the goals of the Aspen Area Community Plan; .
b) more effectively address the issue or problem a given standard or provision responds to;
or
c) be clearly necessary for reasons of fairness related to unusual site specific constraints;
and
WHEREAS, a public hearing, which was legally noticed, was held at a regular meeting
of the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 19, 1997, at which the Commission
approved by a 5-0 vote both the Conditional Use for the McLean/Margerum Residence's
Accessory Dwelling Unit with the conditions recommended by the Community Development
Department and a variance from standard 26.58.040(F)(12), volume, as it relates to all four
elevations of the proposed structure; and
WHEREAS, the approval of the variance request was based on a finding that the
proposed design more effectively addresses the issue or problem the "volume" standard responds
to (variance criterion "b"), and the motion approving the variance did not allow for those
windows indicated on the submitted drawings as dashed lines and labeled as "possible," with the
exception of the one transom window on the west elevation.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Commission:
Section One:
A variance from the "volume" standard, Section 26.58.040(F)(12), as it relates to all four

RE: McLean/Margerum Residence Conditional Use for an Accessory Dwelling
Unit (ADU) - Public Hearing. 627 W. Smuggler Street (Lot 1, Oxley Lot
Split) City of Aspen Parcel I.D. No. 2735-124-09-002.
DATE: August 19, 1997
SUMMARY: The applicant is requesting Conditional Use approval to construct an
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). The applicant owns a lot at 627 W. Smuggler Street and
will be constructing a single family residence. The lot contains an existing single family
home which will be demolished and replaced. The proposed ADU would be below grade
and attached to the corresponding, primary residence. Pursuant to Section
26.100.050(A)(2)(c), the applicant will provide an ADU and, thereby, obtain a GMQS
Exemption enabling the property owner to construct a new single-family home pursuant to
City Land Use Regulations.
The applicant is NOT seeking an FAR bonus, but understands that the unit shall be deed
restricted, meeting the housing authority's guidelines for resident occupied units. As an FAR
bonus is not being sought, the housing office shall not have the right to fill the unit if it is left
unoccupied for extended periods.
The proposed residence (principal residence) contains a few windows that were found by
staff to violate the provisions of the "volume" standard (Section 26.58.040(F)(12),
Residential Design Standards). Given the three options of accepting a 2:1 floor area penalty
for certain areas of the proposed residence, redesigning the proposal to comply with the
volume standard, or seeking a variance from the volume standard, the applicant is requesting
that the Commission grant a variance from said standard.
The applicant's Conditional Use Application is attached as Exhibit "A" and referral
comments are included as Exhibit "B."
Community Development staff recommends that the Conditional Use for the Accessory
Dwelling Unit (ADU) at 309 W. Hallam be approved, subject to conditions.
APPLICANT: Mr. Chuck McLean and Mrs. Amy Margerum, represented by Barbara Long
& Associates.
LOCATION: Lot 1 (one) of the Oxley Lot Split is located at 627 W. Smuggler Street in the
City of Aspen. The lot is bounded by W. Smuggler Street to the north, W. Francis Street to
W
the south (beyond the alley), 5th Street to the east, and 6th Street to the west. (See attached
vicinity map). The surrounding uses are all residential in nature.
ZONING: Medium -Density Residential (R-6)
CURRENT LAND USE: Single-family residential.
LOT SIZE: The subject site has a lot size of 7,500 square feet (the area of this lot may be
subject to reductions such as those associated with slopes of 20% or greater).
ALLOWABLE FAR: 3,450 square feet. (This FAR calculation is an estimate only, and is
based on a 7,500 square foot lot containing no slopes greater than 20%, no right-of-way
easements, no vacated rights -of -way, or any other encumbrances which might subtract from
the lot area; also, it does not take into account sub -grade areas, garage area calculations, or
any potential for FAR bonuses).
PROPOSED LAND USE: One detached single-family residence with an attached
accessory dwelling unit in the basement. Detached residential dwellings are permitted uses
on lots of 6,000 square feet or greater in the R-6 zone.
REVIEW PROCEDURE: Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) require conditional use
approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission at a public hearing. It is a one-step
review that requires notification to be published, posted and mailed in accordance with
Section 26.52.060(E).
The following sections of the code are applicable to this conditional use review: Section
26.40.090, Accessory Dwelling Units; Section 26.28.040, Medium -Density Residential (R-
6); Section 26.60.040, Standards Applicable to All Conditional Uses; and, Section
26.58.040, Residential Design Standards.
Pursuant to Section 26.58.040, Residential Design Standards, Community Development
Department staff reviewed this proposal against the Residential Design Standards and found
that the submitted development application, as proposed, would require a variance from the
"volume" standard (26.58.040(F)(12)).
BACKGROUND: The lot in question was created in 1993 with City Council's passing of
Ordinance 57, Series of 1993. This Ordinance granted a subdivision exemption for a lot split
(See Exhibit "C"). The proposed development of lot at 627 W. Smuggler Street (Lot One of
the Oxley Lot Split) is consistent with and complies with the conditions of approval outlined
in Ordinance No. 57, Series of 1993.
The current proposal is for conditional use approval of an ADU. The ADU would be located
in the basement of the primary residence. As proposed, the ADU would be 451 square feet
and would have its own kitchen, bathroom, and access, as required by code. The two -car
garage, its associated driveway, and an additional parking pad accessed from the alley, will
provide the three (3) required off-street parking spaces (See Exhibit "A"). By creating an
2
ADU meeting the provisions of the code, the applicant would be granted a GMQS
Exemption for the construction of a new single-family home on the lot, provided the home
complies with the City Land Use Regulations.
REFERRAL COMMENTS: The comments from the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation
District, and the City Engineering, Housing, Zoning and Parks Departments are included as
Exhibit B.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Section 26.40.090, Accessory Dwelling Units
The proposed ADU will contain 451 square feet (See Exhibit "A") and will be deed
restricted, meeting the housing authority's guidelines for resident occupied units, limited to
rental periods of not less than six (6) months in duration. The owners of the principal
residence will retain the right to place a qualified employee(s) of his/her choosing in the
ADU. One (1) off-street parking space will be provided on -site, and will be accessed from
the alley. Therefore, the proposal complies with the requirements of Section
26.40.090(A)(1).
Pursuant to Section 26.40.090(A)(2), the ADU is subject to all of the dimensional
requirements of the underlying zone district, Medium -Density Residential (R-6), because it
will be attached to the principal residence. An evaluation of the proposal against these
requirements is provided below. Also, since the ADU will be attached to the primary
residence, Section 26.490.090(A)(3) is not applicable. Section 26.40.090(A)(4) states that
"an attached accessory dwelling unit shall utilize alley access to the extent practical. " The
proposed ADU and its off-street parking space would be accessed from the alley.
Section 26.40.090(B), Development Review Standards, contains the development review
standards for detached accessory dwelling units and, therefore, does not apply to this
application. Regardless, the proposed ADU will appear as part of the primary residence,
and it will be below grade; thus, it will be compatible with and subordinate in character to
the primary residence. This property is located in the West End neighborhood which is, for
the most part, made up of single family residences, many of which have attached or detached
accessory dwelling units associated with them. The proposed ADU will be compatible with
the character of the existing neighborhood and will not create a density pattern incompatible
with that already established in the area.
Section 26.28.040, Medium -Density Residential (R-6)
Accessory dwelling units are permitted within the R-6 zone district as conditional uses. The
lot has an area of 7,500 square feet. The required side yard setbacks call for a minimum of
five (5) feet, but both sides combined must total at least 22.5 feet. The minimum front and
rear yard setbacks are ten (10) feet each, but must combine for a total of at least thirty (30)
feet. The site coverage is not allowed to exceed thirty-five (35) percent (2,625 square feet),
and the maximum roof height cannot exceed twenty-five (25) feet, as measured to a variety
3
of points depending on the particular roof slope. The maximum allowable floor area is 3,450
square feet, and there must be a total of three (3) off-street parking spaces provided (two (2)
for the principal residence and one (1) for the ADU). The proposed plans indicate that the
development would meet all of the dimensional requirements of the zone district, and this
will be verified at the time of building permit application (See both Exhibit "A" and the
referral comments from the City Zoning Officer in Exhibit "B").
Section 26.60.040, Standards Applicable to All Conditional Uses
Pursuant to Section 26.60.040, a development application for a conditional use approval
shall meet the following standards:
(A) The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives
and standards of the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan, and with the intent of
the zone district in which it is proposed to be located.
The stated purpose of the R-6 zone district "is to provide areas for long-term residential
purposes with customary accessory uses. " ADUs are allowed as conditional uses in the R-6
zone district, and the proposal will be required to meet or exceed all of the dimensional
requirements associated with the zoning. Furthermore, one of the stated themes of the
AACP with regard to "revitalizing the permanent community" is to "increase resident
housing." Also, the proposal is consistent with the following purposes, goals, objectives and
standards of the AACP:
• "Promote, market and implement Cottage Infill and Accessory Dwelling Unit programs;"
• "Develop small scale resident housing which fits the character of the community and is
interspersed with free market housing throughout the Aspen Area and up valley of Aspen
Village;" and,
• "The public and private sectors together should develop . . . employee -occupied
accessory dwelling units, to achieve the identified unmet need to sustain a critical mass
of residents."
Staff finds that this conditional use application for an ADU complies with Section
26.60.040(A).
(B) The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of
the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and
surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture of complimentary uses and
activities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development.
The subject parcel is surrounded by residential uses, some of which have associated
accessory dwelling units, and the proposed ADU use is both consistent and compatible with
the existing residential development in the immediate vicinity.
(C) The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed
conditional use minimizes adverse effects, including visual impacts, impacts
on pedestrian and vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery,
noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties.
4
As mentioned earlier in this memo, the proposed ADU will be sub -grade and will appear as
part of the principal residence; thus, its location, size and design will minimize any potential
adverse visual impacts. Like all of the surrounding properties, the ADU's parking and trash
service will be accessed from the alley at the rear, of the property. No noise, vibration, or
odor related impacts are anticipated. The proposed ADU will operate like any other
residence or ADU found in the neighborhood. The anticipated impacts will be negligible.
(D) There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the
conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable water, sewer,
solid waste, parks, police, fire protection, emergency medical services,
hospital and medical services, drainage systems, and schools.
There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the proposed use. It will be within
an existing, well -established neighborhood. See Engineering referral comments, attached as
Exhibit B.
(E) The applicant commits to supply affordable housing to meet the
incremental need for increased employees generated by the conditional use.
While the proposed development of an ADU will not generate an increase in the employment
base, the applicant will be supplying an ADU which, pursuant to Section 26.40.090(A)(1),
will be deed restricted, registered with the housing office, and available for rental to an
eligible working resident of Pitkin County for periods of not less than six months in duration,
thereby serving the need for increased affordable housing in the City of Aspen.
(F) The proposed conditional use complies with all additional standards
imposed on it by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and by all other
applicable requirements of this title.
The proposed conditional use will comply with all additional standards imposed on it be the
AACP and by all other applicable requirements of the Municipal Code, such as those
contained in Section 26.58.040, Residential Design Standards.
Section 26.58.040, Residential Design Standards
The proposed design of the McLean/Margerum Residence was reviewed by staff against the
Residential Design Standards of Section 26.58.040. Staff found the proposed design to
comply with all but one of the design standards, namely standard 26.58.040(F)(12), Volume.
Simply put, this standard requires that there be no windows (facade penetrations/
fenestration) in any areas of the first or second floors that lie between nine (9) and twelve
(12) feet above the height of the floor (plate height). That is, there can be no windows
between nine (9) and twelve (12) feet above either the first floor or the second floor.
As proposed, all four elevations contains violations of the "volume" standard. On the south
elevation, several proposed windows would be in violation of the volume standard,
specifically the transom windows above the first floor french doors, the transom window in
the second story dormer, the window grouping behind the spiral staircase, and the triangular
shaped windows in the gable end. The south elevation faces the alley, and the windows
5
J
behind the stairs and in the gable end would be obscured from sight due to their location
behind other building elements. The north, street -facing elevation contains dormers with
windows that violate the volume standard. The east elevation contains dormers with transom
windows that do not comply with the standard, and the west elevation has parts of three
separate windows (approximately six inches worth, each) that violate the volume standard.
Also, it should be noted that all windows labeled on the proposed elevations as "possible,"
would be in violation of the volume standard and should be eliminated from the plans.
Under the "volume" standard, the applicant is left with three (3) options when it is
determined that the proposed design does not comply: first, the applicant can choose to
redesign the proposal to comply with the standard; next, the applicant can appeal staff s
finding to the Design Review Appeal Committee or other appropriate board; lastly, the
applicant can choose to accept a floor area penalty which would count the area in violation
twice (2:1). In the current case, the applicant has chosen to appeal staffs finding to the
Planning and Zoning Commission in an attempt to obtain a variance. If a variance is to be
granted, it would have to be based on one of the following three criteria:
(a) the proposed design yields greater compliance with the goals of the Aspen Area
Community Plan; or,
(b) the proposed design more effectively addresses the issue or problem the given
standard responds to; or,
(c) a variance is clearly necessary for reasons of fairness related to unusual site specific
constraints.
The intention of the volume standard is to prohibit windows that appear to span from the first
level of a residence to the level(s) above and to maintain a pedestrian scale. In considering
the variance request, the DRAC must decide whether or not the proposed design more
effectively addresses this issue than would a redesign that meets the standard. In staffs
opinion, the proposed design for the north, east and west elevations meets this standard, as
the design would appear incomplete if the windows did not extend into the dormers. Also,
none of the proposed windows on the north, east or west elevations appear to span beyond
the limits of their respective stories. In terms of the south, alley -facing elevation, none of the
proposed windows appear to span from one story to the next, and the windows in violation of
the standard are for the most part obscured from view by other building elements such as the
room above the garage and the spiral staircase.
In summary, staff supports granting of a variance from the volume standard as it relates to all
four proposed elevations of the McLean/Margerum residence. While not complying with the
letter of the "volume' standard, staff feels that the proposed design is in harmony with the
intent and spirit of the criteria. The variance, if granted, would be based on a finding that the
proposed design more effectively addresses the issue or problem the "volume" standard
responds to. Staffs support for the variance request needs to be qualified to make clear that
the variance supported by staff would not allow for those windows indicated on the
submitted drawings as dashed lines and labeled as "possible."
STAFF FINDINGS: Based upon review of the applicant's land use application and the
referral comments, Community Development staff finds that there is sufficient information
6
to support the request. The proposal meets or exceeds all standards applicable to the review
of Accessory Dwelling Units as conditional uses. Staff also finds that a variance from the
requirements of the "volume" standard is warranted as the proposed design more effectively
addresses the issue or problem the given standard responds to that would a design without
the non -complying windows.
RECOMMENDATION: First, Community Development Department staff recommends
granting a variance from the volume standard as it relates to all four proposed elevations of
the McLean/Margerum residence, based on a finding that the proposed design more
effectively addresses the issue or problem the "volume" standard responds to. The variance
supported by staff would not allow for those windows indicated on the submitted drawings as
dashed lines and labeled as "possible."
In addition, Community Development Department staff recommends that the conditional use
request for an Accessory Dwelling Unit at 627 W. Smuggler Street be approved with the
following conditions:
1. Prior to the issuance of any building permits the applicant shall:
a. Verify with the Housing Office that the allowable floor area of the Accessory Dwelling
Unit contains between 300 and 700 square feet;

h. Agree to join any future improvement district(s) which may be formed for the purpose of
constructing improvements in adjacent public rights -of -way; the agreement shall be
executed and recorded concurrently upon approval of this application;
Submit working drawings to verify all height, setback, and floor area calculations, as
well as lot size and lot area calculations;
j. The site development must meet the runoff design standards of the Land Use Code at
Section 26.88.040(C)(4)(f), and the building permit application must include a drainage
mitigation plan (full size - 24" x 36") and report, both signed and stamped by an
engineer registered in the State of Colorado;
k. In the event required, a tree removal permit must be obtained from the Parks Department
for any trees that are to be removed or relocated; also, no excavation can occur within

RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to approve the conditional use request for the
proposed Accessory Dwelling Unit at 627 W. Smuggler Street with the conditions outlined
in the Community Development Department memo dated August 19, 1997. In addition, I
further move to approve a variance from standard 26.58.040(F)(12), volume, as it relates to
all four elevations of the proposed structure finding that the proposed design more
effectively addresses the issue or problem the `volume' standard responds to. The variance
does not allow for those windows indicated on the submitted drawings as dashed lines and
labeled as `possible'."

Date: July 31, 1997
Re: McLean/Margerum Conditional Use Review for an ADU
I have reviewed the above referenced application, and I have the following comments:
1. Improvement Survey - The application did not include an improvement survey, and it is a
requirement to include in the application packet a document that is specifically titled "improvement
survey" and that is wet signed and stamped by a surveyor registered to practice in Colorado. The
date must be within the past 12 months.
2. Encroachments - The building permit drawings will have to show the fences that encroach into
the alley and Smuggler Street rights -of -way and indicate that they will either be relocated onto
private property, or be removed, or be licensed.
3. Driveway - The proposed access is from the alley. The existing driveway will need to be
removed and the area restored.
4. Sidewalk, Curb and Gutter - The site is located in the West End where sidewalks are
excluded from being built. However the "Pedestrian Walkway and Bikeway System Plan" does
indicate that there should be pedestrian usable space off of the street surface. Therefore, the
building permit drawings must indicate a five foot wide pedestrian usable space with a five foot
buffer for snow storage.
The site lacks curb and gutter. The applicant needs to sign a curb and gutter construction
agreement, and pay recording fees, prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. This requirement
was indicated in the Oxley lot split approvals.
5. Trash & Utilities - All utility meters and any new utility pedestals or transformers must be
installed on the applicant's property and not in the public right-of-way. For pedestals, easements
must be provided. The building permit drawings must indicate all utility meter locations. Meter
locations must be accessible for reading and may not be obstructed by trash storage.
6. Site Drainage - As provided for in the parcel lot split approvals, the site development must meet
the requirement of runoff design standards of the Land Use Code at Sec. 26.88.040.C.4.f, and the
building permit application will have to include a drainage mitigation plan (24"06" size plan sheet
or on the lot grading plan) and a report, both signed and stamped by an engineer registered in the
State of Colorado, submitted as part of the building and site plan.
7. Streets Department - The alley is plowed to the sides, and the property owner must clear snow
as needed for access.
8. Work in the Public Right -of way - Given the continuous problems of unapproved work and
development in public rights -of -way adjacent to private property, we advise the applicant as
follows:
The applicant must receive approval from city engineering (920-5080) for design of
improvements, including landscaping, within public rights -of -way, parks department (920-5120)
for vegetation species and for public trail disturbance, and streets department (920-5130) for
mailboxes , street and alley cuts, and shall obtain permits for any work or development, including
landscaping, within public rights -of -way from the city community development department.

RE: McLean/Margerum Residence, Conditional Use review for an ADU
DATE: August 4, 1997
The McLean/Margerum residence is located on a 7500 square foot lot in the R-6 zone
district, which has the following dimensional requirements:
Setbacks:
Front Yard Setback - 10 feet
Rear Yard Setback - 10 feet
Combined Front and Rear for Principle Building - 30 feet
Side Yard Setback - 5 feet minimum with 22.5 feet combined
The exterior ADU access can encroach into the required side yard setback only if it meets
the minimum UBC requirement for egress.
Allowed floor area - 3450 square feet. This figure is based on a 7500 square foot lot
which contains no slopes greater than 20%, no right of way easements, no vacated right
or ways, or any other encumbrances which might subtract from lot area.
Maximum Site Coverage - 35% (2625 square feet)
All floor area calculations, setbacks, site coverage and height measurements will be
verified at time of building permit.

Re: McLean/Margerum ADU
Dear Mitch:
The Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District currently has sufficient collection and treatment
capacity to serve this development. Service is contingent upon compliance with the District's
rules, regulations, and specification which are on file at the District office.
The total connection charges for the proposed addition can be determined once detailed plans are
available and a tap permit is completed at our office. Since service is already available to the
existing residence, we would request, as a condition of approval, payment of the total connection
charges prior to the issuance of a building permit.
Please call if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Bruce Matherly

Re: McLean/ Margerum Residence
Dear Barbara:
ASPEN • PITKIN
COMMUNITY DEVELOPME`T DEPARTMENT
The Community Development Department has reviewed your application for
compliance with the "Residential Design Standards." We find that the project is
in compliance with all aspects of the ordinance except for the "volume" standard,
Section 26.58.040.F.12, which reads as follows:
Volume. For the purpose of calculating floor area ratio and allowable floor area
for a building or portion thereof whose principal use is residential, a
determination shall be made as to its interior plate heights. All areas with an
exterior expression of a plate height greater than ten (10) feet, shall be counted
as two (2) square feet for each one (1) square foot of floor area. Exterior
expression shall be defined as facade penetrations between nine (9) and (12)
feet above the level of the finished floor, and circular, semi -circular or non -
orthogonal fenestration between nine (9) and fifteen (15) feet above the level of
the finished floor.
It is my understanding that you will request an appeal from the volume standard
as part of the Planning and Zoning .Commission's Conditional Use review for an
ADU. Please let me know if you have any further questions in regard to the
design review standard.
Sincerely,
Amy�midon

RE: Application for Conditional Use for Accessory Dwelling Unit
DATE: July 18, 1997
Please find enclosed a check for $1,415 for the permit fees for our ADU application at
627 West Smuggler, the title work requested and a description of how the ADU meets the
review standards. Barbara Long will submit, under separate cover, the locations of
windows which fall within the 9 - 12 foot restriction and a revised internal layout for the
ADU.
I would appreciate your review of the necessity of having Environmental Health and
Engineering review this application. We will be paying fees for both of these
departments to review our demolition permit and building plans, which will include the
ADU if we receive approval from the Planning Commission. At that time, it seems
logical that these departments can review and cover the concerns of asbestos, fireplaces,
easements and rights of way. We have no problem paying the fees, but I am mainly
concerned about the unwise use of staff time in these outlying departments!
Barbara is also re -working the ADU layout to make the kitchen a larger, more useable
space and to move the bathroom door next to the sleeping area. Thanks for your thoughts
on this ... I think it will be a really nice unit.
There are a couple of windows within the 9 - 12 foot range that are very important to us
because they are beautiful views and could bring in very nice light so we want to continue
to ask the Planning Commission for a variance for these. I drove around the west end this
morning, and unless I am crazy, there are many of the older buildings (that have not been
redone) which have windows in the gables!
I also talked to Chuck about our windows. We still want the french doors but will
continue to look at the double hung windows elsewhere. If you drive by George
Hamilton's house (right up from Triangle Park) you might want to take a look at the
windows and doors ... this is the look we are trying to duplicate (to some extent!).
P.S. Another piece of input for all of us. We seriously debated even putting in an ADU
because of the high fee involved and the overall expense and hassle of adding the unit.
We are planning on renting the unit (we have to financially!) to an employee. We do not
have to put the unit in nor do we have to rent it. We are not adding to the FAR of our
house and could easily add another two bedrooms in the place of the ADU! It seems we
should be encouraging people like us to put ADU's in homes by making it a staff sign -off
with perhaps an administrative hearing so neighbors can express concerns or by making it
a use by right with review standards!
Thanks again. Please call if I am missing anything for this application.
Review Standards for Conditional Use for Accessory Dwelling Unit
627 West Smuggler
Aspen, Colorado
A. The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals, objectives
and standards of the Aspen Area Community Plan, and with the intent of the
Zone District in which it is proposed to be located;
The Aspen Area Community Plan (AACP) is premised upon the goal of
providing housing to at least a "critical mass" of the work force of Aspen.
Accomplishing this "means enlisting all elements of the community" in
"employing the resources of the public and private sector." No one location
or type of housing can solve this community problem, therefore the AACP
sought to provide all types of housing by as many means as possible. Some
of the policies of the AACP which are applicable to this request include:
- "Promote, market and implement Cottage Infill and
Accessory Dwelling unit programs."
- "Develop small scale resident housing which fits the character of the
community and is interspersed with free market housing throughout the
Aspen area..."
- "Develop... regulations which encourage accessory dwelling ...units by
permitting larger units and ...by enacting a simpler review procedure."
B. The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of
the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and
surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture of complimentary uses and
activities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development; "
The ADU is consistent and compatible with the character of the West End
neighborhood and with a single family setting. It will be located below
grade and therefore will not add to the overall FAR of the building. It
enhances the vitality of the neighborhood because more full time working
people will be present and increases the amount of dispersed housing in the
West End. Many of the existingolder and historic homes have accessory
units in this neighborhood. Some of the units on the block are duplex units.
C. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed
conditional use minimizes adverse effects, including visual impacts, impacts
on pedestrian and vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery,
noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties.
The unit is located below grade and thus does not impact the visible size of
the structure. The unit has a separate access off the alley and has a
dedicated parking space off the alley as well. We have tried to make the
unit large enough and with plenty of storage so as to minimize any visual or
odor pollution which could result from storage outside of the unit. We plan
on sharing our trash and recycling services with our tenant so as to
minimize any concern with respect to trash. We plan on allowing the tenant
to use our laundry room so as to minimize laundry hanging around the yard.
We do not anticipate any disturbance whatsoever to surrounding properties.
D. There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the
conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable water, sewer,
solid waste, parks, police, fire protection, emergency medical services,
hospital and medical services, drainage systems and schools;
The unit is within the City limits and all of these services are readily
available everywhere within the City limits.
E. The applicant commits to supply affordable housing to meet the
incremental need for increased employees generated by the conditional use;
We are planning on renting the house to a working resident of the
community or to our nanny who is a working resident of the community.
F. The proposed conditional use complies with all additional standards
imposed on it by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and by all other
applicable requirements of this chapter.
The proposed ADU complies with all applicable standards.
1. Accessory dwelling units shall contain not less than three hundred
square feet of net livable area and not more than seven hundred square feet
of net livable area. The unit shall be deed restricted, meeting the housing
authority's guidelines for resident occupied units and shall be limited to
rental periods of not less than six months in duration. Owners of the
principal residence shall have the right to place a qualified employee or
employees.. in the accessory dwelling unit. One parking space shall be
provided on -site for each studio unit and for each bedroom...
The ADU will be deed restricted to the resident occupancy guidelines of the
Housing Office in place at this time. Although we do not have to rent it we
are planning on renting it to a qualified employee and will register such
employee with the Housing Office. We would not spend the money to build
the unit if we were not planning on renting it out. One dedicated parking
space is provided off the alley adjacent to the garage.
2. An attached accessory dwelling unit shall be subject to all other
dimensional requirements of the underlying zone district.
The ADU is subject to the other requirements of the zone district.
3. Not applicable.
4. An attached accessory dwelling unit shall utilize alley access to the
extent practical.
The unit will use alley access.
