Sincerely,/ <#~~ Karen Kribs P.O.Box 9994 Aspen, CO &Wft ./ (") () " MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission THRU: Joyce Ohlson, Deputy Director FROM: James Lindt, Planner RE: Unit 201-202, 210 E. Hyman Avenue GMQS Exemption for Change in Use- Public Hearing DATE: April 15, 2003 ApPLICANT: Karen Kribs LOCATION: Unit 201-202,210 E. Hyman Ave. (Park Central West Condomininms) ZONING: Office (0) Zone District CURRENT LAND USE: Unit 201-202: Architect Office PROPOSED LAND USE: Unit 201-202: Two-Bedroom Residence LOT SIZE: 14,950 Square Feet SUMMARY: This application requests a GMQS exemption for a change-in-use to allow for Unit 201-202 to convert from an office use to a two (2) bedroom residential unit. The Unit is currently used as an office for Reno-Smith Architects. PHOTO ABOVE: Picture of on-site parking that is accessed from the alley. 1 /'; (\ .., BACKGROUND: Karen Kribs ("Applicant"), is requesting approval of a Growth Management Quota System (GMQS) exemption for a change in use to allow for Unit 201-202 of the Park Central West Condominiums to be converted from an office use to a two (2) bedroom residential unit of approximately 1,430 square feet. The Planning and Zoning Commission may approve, approve with conditions, or deny a GMQS exemption request for a change in use after considering a recommendation from the Community Development Director and the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority. STAFF COMMENTS: PARKING AND DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS: In reviewing the affect that the proposed conversion would have on the building's allowable dimensional requirements, staff determined that the proposal would actually bring the property into greater compliance with the parking requirements of the Land Use Code. There are currently fifteen (15) on-site parking spaces. The Office Zone District requires one parking space for each studio or one-bedroom unit and two parking spaces for each two-bedroom unit. The Office zoning also requires that three (3) parking spaces be provided on-site for each 1,000 square feet of net leasable area. Therefore, under the current use configuration, the building would require slightly over seventeen (17) parking spaces. Under the proposed use configuration after the conversion of Unit 201-202 to residential, the building would only require fifteen (15) on-site parking spaces. Thus, the proposal would bring the building back into conformance with the parking requirements of the Office Zone District. Moreover, the proposal will not expand any existing non-conformities or create any new non-conformities. EMPLOYEE GENERATION: The applicant contends that the proposed conversion will not generate any additional employees and therefore, there is not a need to mitigate for employee housing as a result of the proposal. The Housing Authority Staff has reviewed the proposal and concurs with the applicant that no employees would be generated by the proposed conversion because it is from commercial to residential. Additionally, the Planning Staff believes that the proposal would convert the unit to a less intensive residential use and believes that no employee housing would be required in relation to the conversion. COMPLIANCE WITH ASPEN AREA COMMUNITY PLAN: The applicant believes that the contemplated residential use would be appropriate and compatible with the rest of the building because it primarily consists of residential units and that there will be no change to the exterior of the building as a result of the conversion. Moreover, the applicant feels that the proposal is consistent with a change in use approval that was granted for the unit in 1992 to convert it to a residential use. The approval was never acted upon and the vested rights period expired. Conversely, staff feels that there have been significant changes to the composition of uses within the City of Aspen since the 1992 approval was granted. As part of the changing composition, the amount of commercial and office space has been in decline as of late. This decline in office space has led to the creation of several objectives in the 2000 AACP relating to the promotion of a resurgence in the amotmt commercial and office space in the City. Therefore, staff believes that the proposed conversion is contradictory to some of the Aspen Area Community Plan's 2 n ~ goals relating to stemming the loss of commercial and office space. One of the action plan objectives in the 2000 AACP was for staff to "review city and county codes to identify and resolve problems regarding the loss of commercial and office space to other uses". Staff feels that the proposal would remove a viable office space from Aspen's office inventory, which staff has been directed to protect in the above Action Plan objective. Therefore, staff does not believe that the proposal is consistent with all respects of the AACP as is required for approving a GMQS exemption for a change in use and recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission deny the request. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission deny the proposed request finding it that it is not consistent with all respects of the Aspen Area Community Plan. RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to approve Resolution No._, Series of 2003, approving with conditions, a GMQS exemption for a change in use to allow for the Unit 201-202 of the Park Central West Condominiums to be converted from an office use to a two-bedroom residential unit."

HYMAN AVE. GMQS EXEMPTION REVIEW CRITERIA & STAFF FINDINGS Section 26.470.070(F), Change in Use The Planning and Zoning Commission may approve a change in use request if it is found that the proposal meets the following criteria: 1. A minimal number of additional employees will be generated by the change in use and that employee housing will be providedfor the additional employees generated. Staff Finding The applicant would like to convert the subject condominium unit from more intensive office use to a less intensive residential use. As a result, the Housing Authority and Planning Staffs feel that there will not be any employees generated by the proposal. Therefore, no employee housing mitigation should be required for the change in use. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 2. A minimal amount of additional parking spaces will be demanded by the change in use and that parking will be provided. Staff Finding Based on the land use code requirements prior to the adoption of the infill code amendments, the existing building under its current use configuration is non-conforming in regards to on-site parking. Converting the unit from an office to a two-bedroom residential use would actually bring the property into conformance with the on-site parking requirements of the Office (0) Zone District. Therefore, staff does not believe that the proposed residential use will yield greater demand for on-site parking than the current office use. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. There will be minimal visual impact on the neighborhood from the change in use. StaffFinding The applicant has not proposed any changes to the exterior of the building. Therefore, staff does not believe that there will be a visual impact on the neighborhood as a result of the proposal. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 4. Minimal demand will be placed on the City's public facilities from the change in use. 4 r, , . o Staff Finding Staff does not believe that there will be a considerable amount of additional deIIland placed on the City's public facilities as a result of the proposed change in use. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 5. No zone change is required. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed change in use is within the permitted uses and the dimensional requirements and do not necessitate any zone district change. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 6. No more than one residential unit will be created. Staff Finding The applicant is only proposing to add one residential unit to the property. Therefore, staff finds this criterion to be met. 7. The proposed use is consistent in all respects with the AACP. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed conversion is contradictory to some of the objectives that are established in the 2000 AACP. The most notable of the AACP objectives that staff believes the contemplated change in use is inconsistent with is Action Plan Item No.20, which calls for staff to look at ways of stemming the loss of commercial and office space. Staff feels that the proposed conversion from office space to a free market residential unit directly adds to the loss of office space within the City of Aspen. In addition, staff also believes that the proposed change in use does not help to revitalize the permanent community as is encouraged in the AACP. Staff believes that if the unit is converted to a free market residential unit, it will likely not be occupied year-round as is consistent with the use of many other townhomes within the City, which will not add to the sense of maintaining a permanent commnnity that the AACP calls for. Staff does not find this criterion to be met. 5 1""',.." rtJ Aspen Consolidated Sanitation Oistrict Paul Smith * Chairman Micha.el Kelly * Vice- Chair John Keleher * Sec/Treas March 3,2003 Frank Loushin Roy Holloway Bruce Matherly, Mgr James Lindt Community Development 130 S.

O. Box 9994 Aspen, CO 81612 970-925-2525 ExisOn!!: Conditions: Park Central West is a Multi Use Condominium. It consists of three buildings which together house a total of ten residential units and three commercial units, along with laundry, storage, and a parking lot of fifteen (15) spaces. The improvements are on a site of 14,950 square feet. Subiect Property: Unit 201-202 is a space of1430 square feet on the second level ofa three level building. The space comprises the entirety of the second level, and is presently designated office space and is used as the offices of an architectural firm. The upper and lower levels each contain one residential condo and one office space condo. Unit 201-202 is not presently divided; it is used as a single unit, and will be treated as a single unit for purposes of this discussion. It was originally platted as a single unit and was subdivided at a later date. It is shown on the plat as Unit 201 only. In 1992 another party applied for a change of use permit to convert the property to residential. The permit was granted, but the conversion was never done. Proposal: I propose to convert Unit 201-202 from an office space into a residential condominium consisting of an open Living, Dining, Kitchen area, a separate den, a large owners storage closet, 2 Bedrooms and 3 Baths. The space would make for an easy conversion. Living room, dining area, and the den would look out onto a balcony which runs along the entire south wall of the building, with a view towards Shadow Mountain. The space presently has several small offices, so many of the present partitions would be removed. The interior would be totally reconfigured. The space has four exterior walls, so there are plenty of windows providing lots of light. The exterior doors can remain where they are presently located. My plan does not call ~ (j Remodel Project for Park Central West---Unit 201-202---page 2 for any changes to the exterior of the building, so the visual impact from the outside would be zero. The dimensional and parking requirements for the building currently is: Unit 1---1 bedroom Unit 2---1 bedroom Unit 3---1 bedroom Unit 4---1 bedroom Unit 5---1 bedroom Unit 6---1 bedroom Unit 7---1 bedroom Unit 8---studio Unit 9---studio Unit 10---studio Unit 101--- 580 sq. ft. office Unit 201-202---1430 sq. ft. office Unit 301 --- 429 sq. ft. office 1250 sq. ft. 1250 sq. ft. 1250 sq. ft. 1250 sq. ft. 1250 sq. ft. 1250 sq. ft. 1250 sq. ft. 1000 sq. ft. 1000 sq. ft. 1000 sq. ft. o sq. ft o sq. ft. o sq. ft. 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1 space 1. 7 spaces 4.3 spaces 1.3 spaces 11750 sq. ft. 17.3 spaces Converting Unit 201-202 to a residential unit would add 2100 square feet to the dimensional requirement, bringing it to 13850 square feet; the 14950 square foot parcel would allow for this increase. Change from commercial to residential would actually reduce the parking requirement from 4.3 spaces to 2 spaces for this unit, and from 17.3 spaces to 15 spaces for the entire development, thereby bringing the development back into compliance with the current parking requirements, as the development has 15 parking spaces at the present time. Conclusions: The subject property is in a multi-use building and is actually quite suitable to either use, commercial or residential. If the property were to be converted to residential use, the development would come into compliance for the parking requirements; the development complies with the dimensional requirements either way. There would be no visual impact created by the conversion. There have been only minor changes in the Land Use Code in the Office Zone District which would effect this property since the last Change of Use permit was granted in 1992. ~ f\... n Remodel Project for Park Central West---Unit 201-202-~~-page 3 Ioope that the Planning and Zoning Commission will look favorably on my application.
