AN ORDINANCE OF THE ASPEN CITY COUNCIL AMENDING THE ASPEN LAND
USE REGULATIONS WITH RESPECT TO PROVISION OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
AND DISPLACEMENT
WHEREAS, the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission

housing opportunities, rather than in large complexes"; and
WHEREAS, in April, 1980, the Aspen/pitkin Housing Task Force
(on which the Commission was a member) issued its Action Plan
Report, recommending a three pronged strategy to address the
communi ty' s housing needs, including production of new units,
reduction of demand for new housing and preservation of the
existing inventory; and
WHEREAS, in August, 1987, the Aspen Pitkin Housing Authority
(hereinafter the "City Council's housing designee") issued its
Housing Needs Assessment, within which it did find the following:

section 1
That the Aspen Land Use Regulations are hereby amended by adding
a new Division 7 of Article 5, which section reads as follows:
" DIVISION 7: REPLACEMENT HOUSING PROGRAM
Sec. 5-701. Puroose.
The City of Aspen's neighborhoods have traditionally been
comprised of a mix of housing types, including those which are
affordable by its working residents. However, because of Aspen's
attractiveness as a resort environment, and because of the
physical constraints of the upper Roaring Fork Valley, there is
constant pressure for the redevelopment of older homes for
tourist and second home use.
Preservation of the housing inventory and provision of
dispersed housing opportunities in Aspen have been long-standing
planning goals of the community. Achievement of these goals will
promote a socially and economically balanced community, limit the
number of employees who face a long and sometimes dangerous
commute on state Highway 82, reduce the air pollution effects of
employee commuting and prevent exclusion of working residents
from the City's neighborhoods.
In its Housing Master Plan, the City has established a goal
that housing be provided by both the public and private sectors.
The City, through its housing designee, has provided affordable
housing both within and adjacent to the city limits. The City
finds it necessary to adopt limitations on the displacement of
housing units from its inventory to insure that the private
sector maintains its role in the provision of affordable housing
and to prevent a housing shortfall from occurring while the
impacts of new development are being addressed.
Sec. 5-702.
Applicabilitv and Standards.
Whenever one or more residential dwelling units in a multi-
family building is demolished or when two or more ownerships of
land, each of which contains one or more detached residential or
duplex units, is merged or otherwise combined into a project for
the purpose of demolition and reconstruction of the units,
excluding any parcel consolidated as a Specially Planned Area
(SPA), the applicant shall be required to restrict a minimum of
fifty percent (50%) of the total number of units (but in no case
more than the number of units demolished) and twenty-five percent
(25%) of the total number of bedrooms in the replacement project
as affordable housing. For the purposes of this section, a
studio shall be counted as a three-quarter (3/4) bedroom.
When the number of affordable housing units replaced on the
3
site is less than or equal to fifty percent (50%) of the total
number of units demolished on the site, the replacement units
shall be restricted to the housing designee's low income and
occupancy guidelines. When the number of affordable housing
units replaced on the site is more than fifty percent (50%) but
less than one-hundred percent (100%) of the total number of units
demolished on the site, the applicant may choose to restrict the
replacement units to the housing designee's low or moderate
income and occupancy guidelines. When the number of affordable
housing units replaced on the site is one-hundred percent (100%)
or more of the total number of units demolished on the site, the
applicant may choose to restrict the replacement units to the
housing designee's low, moderate or middle income and occupancy
guidelines or as Resident Occupied units.
The standards of this Division shall apply when a dwelling
unit is demolished, is moved outside of the City of Aspen or when
the number of units on the site is reduced. Moving a dwelling
unit to another location within the city of Aspen shall not be
considered demolition, provided it meets all of the requirements
of this Chapter in its new location.
Demolition resulting from an act of God or through any
manner not willfully accomplished by the owner shall not cause
the requirements of this Division to apply.
Demolition of a unit which the owner demonstrates to the
Planning Director, through the consent of City Council, has,
since the time of its initial occupancy, been exclusively
occupied as a tourist accommodation or by an owner who does not
meet the housing designee's definition of resident, shall not
cause the requirements of this Division to apply.
Sec 5-703.
Location.
Affordable housing replacement units shall be developed on
the same site on which demolition has occurred, unless the
applicant shall demonstrate that replacement of the units on-
site would be incompatible with adopted neighborhood plans or
would be an inappropriate planning solution due to the site's
physical constraints. When either of the above circumstances
results, the applicant shall replace the maximum number of units
on-site which the Commission and Council determine the site can
accommodate and may replace the remaining units off-site, within
the City of Aspen or the Aspen Annexation Area, as defined within
the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan: Annexation Element, 1988.
When the applicant's housing replacement requirement involves a
fraction of a unit, cash-in-lieu may be provided to meet the
fractional requirement only.
Sec. 5-704.
Timinq.
4
Replacement units shall be available for occupancy at the
same time as the new units, regardless of whether built on- or
off-site and shall contain fixtures, finish and amenities
required by the housing designee's guidelines.
When replacement units are proposed to be built off-site,
the applicant shall be required to obtain a development order
approving the off-site development prior to or in conjunction
with obtaining a development order approving redevelopment of the
site on which demolition is proposed to take place."

affordable housing with monies received from
payment of affordable housing dedication fees.
2. Whether the City has an adopted plan identifying
the applicant's site as being appropriate for
affordable housing.
3. Whether the applicant's site is well suited for
the development of affordable housing, taking into
account the availability of services, proximity to
employment opportunities and whether the site is
affected by environmental constraints to
development or historic preservation concerns.
4. Whether the method proposed will result in
employee housing being produced prior to or at the
time the impacts of the development will be
experienced by the community.
5. Whether the development itself requires the
provision of affordable housing on-site to meet
its service needs.
6
When the application shall be for residential development
allotments, a minimum of twenty five percent (25%) of the total
number of bedrooms built on the site on which allotments are
requested shall be affordable housing, unless, pursuant to the
above standards, it shall be determined that this amount of
affordable housing cannot or should not be built on-site. For
