equipment or accessory features that have no impact on the character -defining features of
the building or structure, and 2) alterations to a noncontributing building within a historic
district that have no adverse effect on its historic or architectural character. Similarly,
Administrative approval for compliance with Commercial Design Review is appropriate
according to Section 26.412.090.A.3.
Based on a review of the applicable Commercial, Lodging and Historic District Design
Standards and Guidelines, staff finds that the proposal as submitted complies with the design
guidelines.
ESA Mountain View Plane —Administrative Review
The property is located in the foreground of the Wheeler Opera House view plane. According
to Section 26.435.E of the Aspen Municipal Code, an addition to a structure or an attached
building feature that does not meet the criteria for Exemption from View Plane review may be
approved by the Community Development Director through Administrative Review if:
1. The Infringement is erected only to the minimum height needed to accomplish the purpose
for which it serves and the height and setbacks comply with the standards of Section
26.575.020, the dimensional requirements of Chapter 26.710, and the Design Guidelines
and Standards in Chapter 26.412, Commercial Design Review or 26.415, Historic
Preservation, as applicable; or
2. The Infringement cannot be seen with the naked eye from the reference point as
demonstrated by a visual resource analysis.
The project involves the addition of attached building features, specifically new mechanical
equipment and screening on the roof. These elements are new intrusions into the viewplane.
The application demonstrates that the equipment and screen walls are all compliant with the
height and setback standards applicable to these elements as expressed in Section
26.575.020, Calculations and Measurements and in the Commercial Core Zone District.
Applicable design guidelines are also met. The project has designed the HVAC system to
the minimum standards to serve the building while limiting impact on the view plane.
Approval is granted subject to the following conditions:
1. The new decorative steel plate to be installed on the south fagade is to attach to the
building through mortar joints only, not the face of the masonry.
2. The plywood sheathing on top of the trellis facing Hyman Avenue shall be removed in
its entirety, as represented in the application.
3. The project does not increase floor area or net leasable area and is therefore exempt
from GMQS Review according to Section 26.470.070.E of the Aspen Municipal
Code.
4. The project does not change the existing amount of on -site Pedestrian Amenity.
5. The project complies with Second Tier space minimums.
6. The structure is occupied by more than one separately operable tenant.
