SUBJECT & SITE OF APPROVAL:
The Community Development Department is issuing this Administrative Determination to accept
an estimation of pre -development topography prepared by a registered land surveyor for the
property located 810 W Smuggler St. A Historic Topographical Study has been prepared by Josh
Rice of Woody Creek Engineering, L.S. 42764, and has been reviewed by the City of Aspen
Engineering Department and has been deemed acceptable.
SUMMARY:
The subject lot is bound by Smuggler St. to the south, residential lots to the east and west, and an
alley to the north. Topography slopes gently south to north. The lot is currently undeveloped but
was previously developed with a single-family residence. The applicant is currently designing a
new single-family residence for the lot. The survey provided assumes the topography of the lot
was affected by the demolition of a previous residence.
STAFF EVALUATION:
Community Development and Engineering Department Staff have reviewed the submission
materials provided by the Applicant. The applicant used the historical aerial images, and 1974 topo
map to justify the proposed pre -development topography. Based on the information provided, Staff
agrees the depression at the south end of the lot adjacent to the alley was likely a result of
development activity and is not likely not the pre -development condition of the property. The
Historic Interpolated Survey provided in the application is likely consistent with pre -development
topography. The Engineering Department agrees that the proposed interpolated slope map is a
reasonable interpretation of pre -development topography.
DECISION:
In accordance with the procedures, standards, and limitations of Title 26, this Administrative
Determination, and pursuant to Code Section 26.575.020 (and more specifically the Notes for
Table 26.575.020-1), the Community Development Director acknowledges and accepts Exhibit A
as pre -development topography for 810 W Smuggler St.
