Lot Line Adjustment application for lots 1 & 2 in the Moore Family PUD also known as Five Trees.
Overview: Carol & Steve Aaron, owners of lots 1 & 2, are applying for a lot line adjustment. Their intent is to create a larger greenbelt between the two lots and yet still retain
the initial character of the PUD.
General Requirements:
The proposed lot line adjustment is consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan.
The proposed lot line adjustment is consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area.
The proposed lot line adjustment will not adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area.
The proposed lot line adjustment is exempt from GMQS allotments.
Establishment of dimensional requirements:
The proposed dimensional requirements for the subject properties are appropriate and compatible with the following influences on the property:
The character of, and the compatibility with, existing land uses in the surrounding area
Natural or man-made hazards
The existing natural characteristics of the property and surrounding areas such as steep slopes, waterways, shade, and significant vegetation and landforms.
The existing man-made characteristics of the property and the surrounding area such as noise and traffic.
The proposed lot line adjustment permits a scale, massing, and quantity of open space and site coverage appropriate and favorable to the character of the existing PUD and the surrounding
area
The appropriate number of off-street parking spaces is not affected by this lot line adjustment.
No response needed
The maximum allowable density within the Moore Family PUD will not be affected by this lot line adjustment.
Again, the density will not be affected by this lot line adjustment.
Site Design:
The proposed lot line adjustment actually enhances the PUD by increasing the distance between the two building envelopes and yet retains the character of the initial PUD.
The structures for each lot will still be close enough together that they will appropriately preserve significant open spaces and vistas.
The structures orientation will not change. They are and will be oriented to Powderbowl Trail and will provide visual interest and engagement of vehicular and pedestrian movement.
The emergency and service vehicle access is not affected by this lot line adjustment.
Pedestrian and handicapped access is not affected by this lot line adjustment.
With the proposed lot line adjustment, site drainage of both lots 1 and 2 is actually enhanced because of the additional space between the lots.

Overview of proposed lot line adjustment
The applicants, Steve and Carol Aaron, propose the following:
A lot line adjustment between the common property line of lots 1 and 2 in the Moore Family PUD. Both lots are owned by the applicants with the following sizes- Lot 1 is 2.199 acres
+ OR –
and Lot 2 is 1.949 acres + or -.
The applicant proposes to move the lot line 25 feet to the southwest. With the adjustment of the new lot line, the building envelopes of both lots would move accordingly. The building
envelope of lot 2 would increase while the building envelope of lot 1 would decrease. Lot 1 is a vacant parcel. Lot 2 has the applicants residence on it . The increase in the building
envelope for lot 2 would be beneficial in that the existing home has a flagstone patio which encroaches the current building envelope by approx 5 feet and with an adjustment to the
southwest, the patio would easily be encompassed into the new envelope. The envelope on lot 1 would actually decrease in size to allow for the adjustment.
The proposal complies with the review standards relevant to the proposed lot line adjustment.
