specified in the Ordinance; however the site plan and floor plans attached to the Ordinance as
Exhibit A accurately depict the setbacks for the lodge building of between P — 2' from the alley
property line.
Administrative Clarification to Ordinance 51, Series 2013
The drawings attached as Exhibit A to Ordinance 51, Series of 2013 accurately depict the
approved setbacks and building footprint. This administrative clarification supplements the

Dear Sara:

We request a City of Aspen Community Development Department Ordinance Clarification of
Section 4: Dimensional Requirements of Ordinance 51, Series of 2013, which granted approval
for the redevelopment of 1 10 West Main Street.
Table 1 : Dimensional Requirements specified various dimensional requirements for the lodge
and free market components of the redevelopment. Among the dimensional requirements
were the side yard setback adjacent to the relocated alley. Table 1 provides a 5' setback for
the free market residential adjacent to the alley but does not specify the side yard setback
adjacent to the alley for the lodge component.
The drawings attached as Exhibit A to Ordinance 51, Series of 2013, specifically sheets 20-22,
depict the approved site plan of the lodge building. This site plan shows minimal lodge
setbacks from the alley ranging from slightly less than 2' at the trash enclosure and guest
rooms 220 and 320, less than 1' for the stair tower located to the south of guest rooms 220 and
320, and a less than V for the corridor located to the north of guest room 218 and 318.
Please clarify that the setbacks portrayed in the architectural plans depict the approved
lodge setbacks adjacent to the alley.
Please call me with any questions.
Very truly yours,

The maximum affordable housing floor area may be increased through growth

not increased and the lodge floor area is not changed.
Pursuant to Aspen Land Use Code Section 26.710.090.D.11(a)(5), as shown below, the
allowable free market multi -family housing floor area is calculated based on the
allowances in the Lodge "Lone District which provides more free market residential floor
area for smaller average lodge room sizes. The average lodge room size proposed is 300
sf net livable area which provides for a free market residential floor area equivalent to
60% of the total lodge unit and affordable housing net livable area. The applicant
proposes approximately 17,847 sf of net livable area for lodge and affordable housing;
therefore a maximum of 10,708 sf of floor area is allowed for free market multi -family
residential.
The average individual lodge unit size is not permitted to be increased above 300 sf of net
livable area without reducing the free market residential floor area allowed on the
property in accordance with the chart below.

lodge/timeshare unit floor area shall be determined by interpreting the
above schedule proportionately. For example, a lodge project with an
average unit size of 450 square feet shall be allowed to develop a free-
market residential floor area up to 45% of the total lodge unit net livable
area.
This percentage of free-market residential FAR may, not be otherwise
