RE: Aspen Mountain Townhomes Condominiumization
DATE: May 16, 1986
ZONING: L-2
LOCATION: 623 S. Monarch, Lot 11, Block 1, Connors Addition to
the City of Aspen.
APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant proposes to condominiumize
the three (3) recently built townhome units and requests to be
exempted from the six (6) month minimum lease restriction and
right -of -first -refusal under Section 20-22(c) of the Municipal
Code.
BACKGROUND: The existing structure is a reconstruction of two
structures that contained a total of five (5) residential units.
The original structures were non -conforming as to setbacks, FAR,
open space, residential density and parking requirements.
Variances were granted by the Board of Adjustment on March 28,
1985 (Case No. 85-4) allowing non -conformities in yard setbacks.
APPLICABLE SECTIONS OF MUNICIPAL CODE: Section 20-22 of the
Municipal Code sets forth the requirements by which a subdivision
exception for the purpose of condominiumization may be approved.
Included in this section are the following requirements:
a. Existing tenants shall be given notice of sale and right of
first refusal.
b. All units shall be restricted to six (6) month minimum lease
restrictions with no more than two shorter tenancies per
year.
C. Demonstration that approval will not reduce the supply of
low and moderate income housing must be provided.
d. The units shall be inspected by the Building Department
prior to condominiumization.

•
Section 20-19(c) states:
"The City Council may grant exceptions from the application
of the standards and requirements of this (Subdivision)
Chapter and grant final subdivision approval when the City
Council, in its sole discretion and judgment, deems certain
reauirements to be redundant, serve no public purposes and
be unnecessary in relation to the land use policies of the
City of Aspen under the facts and circumstances presented
and, notwithstanding the exception finds that the proposed
subdivision will substantially comply with the design
standards of this Chapter."
Section 20-19(a) states the findings which must be made by the
Planning Commission (and by extension, City Council) for granting
a subdivision exception, paraphrased as follows:
(1) There are special circumstances or conditions affecting
the subject property such that the strict application
of the provisions of this Chapter would result in undue
hardship.
(2) The exception is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of a substantial property right; and
(3) Granting the exception will not be detrimental to the
public welfare or injurious to other property in the
area in which it is situated.
PROBLEM DISCUSSION:
A. REFERRAL COMMENTS
1. Engineering Department - In a memorandum from Jim
Gibbard dated April 30, the following comments were
made:
a. An area should be designated for a trash dumpster.
b. The plat should include the surveyor's signature
and seal as well as other required signature
blocks .
2. Housing Authority - On flay 1, 1986 the Housing Author-
ity reviewed the application with regard to impact on
the supply of low and moderate income housing and
concluded that a deed- restriction to employee housing
guidelines is not appropriate. An affidavit was
submitted from former owners Ted and Mary Armstrong
attesting to the rental history of the old units prior
to demolition, exceeding employee housing guidelines.
Attorney Kaufman states in the application, verified by
K
0 0
signature of John Olson, that the rebuilt units, have
been short -termed and rented well in excess of the
employee housing guidelines.
B. STAFF COMMENTS: In condominiumization of a multi -family
residential structure, the main issues are displacement, the
effect on employee housing, six month minimum lease restric-
tion ( long -terming) , health and safety of living conditions
and platting requirements.
The Housing Authority determined that the units have not
fal 1 Pn wi thi n the Pmnl nvnP hmigi nn r7iii riPl i nPcz and wP anrpP
with their recommendation that no units be deed -restricted.
With regard to displacement and long-term restrictions, the
applicant believes that neither the notice of sale and
right -of -first refusal nor the six-month minimum deed
restriction should apply to the Aspen Mountain Townhomes.
The intention of the L-2 zone in Section 24-3.2 is:
"To encourage construction and renovation of lodges in
the area at the base of Aspen Mountain and to allow
construction to tourist oriented single-family, duplex
and multi -family units."
Therefore, it is reasonable that given the location of the
townhomes and their current use as short-terr;i accommoda-
tions, the requirements for the six month minimum deed
restriction and right of first refusal "would serve no
public purpose and be unnecessary in relation to the land
use policies of the City" and should be exempted. The
recent precedents for this exception include the approvals
granted to 700 S. Galena and the residential units in the
Aspen Mountain Lodge.
ADVISORY COMMITTEE VOTE: On May 6, 1986, the Planning and Zoning
Commission passed a motion, 3 in favor, 1 opposed, to recommend
approval by Council of the requested subdivision exception for
the purpose of condominiumization of the Aspen Mountain Townhomes
subject to the four (4) conditions listed below.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: "Move to grant the requested subdivision
exception for the purpose of condominiumization subject to the
following conditions:
1. A Statement of Subdivision Exception shall be filed to the
satisfaction of the City Attorney prior to recordation of
the pl at .
2. The applicant shall agree to join the Special Improvement
District for the lodge area and any other special districts
that include this property and shall state this commitment
3
in the Statement of Subdivision Exception.
3. A plat shall be filed with the Clerk and Recorder of Pitkin
County to the satisfaction of the City Engineer which
includes designation of a trash dumpster area and common
element areas in the yards.
4. The Aspen Mountain Townhomes Condominiumization shall be
excepted from the requirements of Section 20-22(a) and (b) ,
right -of -first -refusal to the existing tenant and six (6)
month minimum lease restriction, based o the finding that,
in th i .c; iin i nup tharP wnnl a hP nn niihl i r- nii rnngP gP rvPri
by such requirements, the requirements would be unnecessary
in relation to the land use policies of the City of Aspen
under the facts and circumstances presented, and granting
this exception will not be detrimental to the public welfare
or injurious to other property in the area."

AND PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO
FROM: ANN BUIMAN, PROPERTY MANAGER
DATE: A PR IL 24, 1986
RE: ASPEN MOUNTAIN TOWNHOUSES C0ND0MINIUMIZATION
PARCEL ID# 2735-131-20-003 Case No. 07A-86
ISSUE: The application requests exception from the full subdivi-
sion process for the condom iniumization of three existing units
located in one structure, known as the Aspen 14ountain Townhouses.
The issue is whether the applicant should be obligated to provide
employee housing.
BACKGROUND: The applicant represents `There were formerly five
residential units on the subject property, four in one structure
and one in another. The two structures ;.;ere found to contain
many deficiencies under the Uniform Iiousi_ng Code. The applicants
acquired the property in April, 1985, and have replaced the two
structures containing five units with one structure containing
three units.
Prior t,) the demolition and reconstruction, the four -unit wood
frame a,,)artment building contained Units, 2,3,4 and 5. Unit 3
had been occupied by the prior o�•:ner's son for the preceding
eighteen (18) months. Unit 4 had been occupied by the prior
owner's mother for the preceding eighteen (18) months. Unit 5
had been occupied by the prior owners for the preceding eighteen
(18) months. Unit 3, containing 500 square feet, had been rented
at a monthly rental of $650.00 per month for the preceding
eighteen (18) months. Unit 1, a log cabin, contained 528 square
feet, and had been rented for $650.00 for the preceding eighteen
(18) months. The above described rental history shows that the
former units were not renting within the then current guidelines
for low, moderate or middle income housing, and that therefor,
condominiumization approval shall not require employee housing
restrictions. The existing three units are rented on a short-
term basis."
The applicant further states " The requirement for providing a
right of first refusal to existing tenants stated in Section 2-
22 (a) is inappropriate in this instance due to the short term
nature of the rental arrangements.
The six (6) month minimum lease requirement specitied in Subsec-
tion 20-22(b) is not applicable to this property since the
property is located in the Lodge Zone. Units in the Lodge Zone
are intended to remain in the short-term rental market to be used
as temporary accommodations available to the general public.
The approval of this application will not reduce the supply of
low and moderate income housing, a requirement for condomin-
iumization under Subsection 20-33(c), since the proposal has no
effect on the size or number of units. The units are newly
constructed units and the market will dictate the rental costs of
the units. The units are presently rented on short-term basis.
HOUSING STAFF COMMENTS: The Housing Office agrees with the
applicants' representations but asked for additional backup
information regarding the earlier rental history. The response
from Gideon Kauffman's office is attached as Exhibit I. After
conversation with Mr. Kauffman the Housing Office recommends
approval of the request for condominiumization and suggests that
no employee generation will be required.
ACTION NEEDED: Approval of Housing Office recommendation.

APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant proposes to condominiumize
the three (3) recently built townhor�e units and rectuest s to be

This section gives Council the ability to arant the subdivision
exception for condominiumization as well as exempt the property
from the six (6) month minimum lease deed -restriction.

A. REFERRAL COMMENTS
1. Engineering Department - In a memorandum f rom Jim
Gibbard dated April 30. the following comments were
made:
a. An area should be designated for a trash dumpster.
b. The plat should include the surveyor's signature

2. Housing Authority - Or. ray 1, 1986
the Housing Author-
ity reviewed the application with
regard to impact on

concluded that a deed -restriction
to employee housing
guidelines is not appropriate.
An affidavit was
submitted from former owners Ted

attesting to the rental history of
the old units prior
to demolition, exceeding employee
housing guidelines.
Attorney Kaufman states in the application,
verified by
sicnature of John Olson, that the
rebuilt units, have
been short -termed and rented well
in excess of the
employee housing guidelines.
B. STAFF COMMENTS: In condom iniumization of a multi -family
residential structure, the main issues are displacement, the
effect on employee housing, six month minimum lease restric-
tion (long -terming), health and safety of living con6itions
and platting requirements. The Housing Authority determined
that the units have not fallen within the employee housing
guidelines and we agree with their recommendation that no
units be deed -restricted.
With regard to displacement and long-term restrictions, the
applicant believes that neither the notice of sale and
richt-of-first refusal nor the six. -month minimum deed
restriction should apply to the Aspen Mountain Townhomes.
The intention of the L-2 zone in Section 24-3.2 is:
•
•
"To encourage construction and renovation of lodges in

recent precedents for this exception include the approvals
eranted to 700 S. Galena and the residential units in '-h^

RECOMMENDATION: The Planninq Office recommends to the Planninq
Commission to recommend approval by Council of the requested
subdivision exception for the purpose of condom iniumization
subject to the following conditions:
1. A Statement of Subdivision shall be filed to the satisfac-
tion of the City Attorney prior to recordation of the plat.
2. The applicant shall agree to join, the Special Improvement
District for lodge area and any other special districts that
include this property and shall state this commitment in the

3. A plat shall be filed with the Clerk and Recorder of Pitkin

precedents for this exception include the approvals granted
to 700 S. Galena and the residential units in the base
mountain lodge.
Platting requirements include an accurate survey and other
C�Qfeatures mentioned in the Engineering Department comments.
Yard dimensions are an item of concern to the Building
Department to enable them to check whether the structure was

subdivision exception for the purpose of condominiumization
subject to the followina concitions:
1. A Statement of Subdivision shall be filed to the satisfac-
tion of the Citv Attorney prior to recordation of the plat.

RE: ASPEN MOUNTAIN TOWNHOUSES CONDOMINIUMIZATION
PARCEL ID# 2735-131-20-003 Case No. 07A-86
ISSUE: The application requests exception from the full subdivi-
sion process for the condominiumization of three existing units
located in one structure, known as the Aspen Mountain Townhouses.
The issue is whether the applicant should be obligated to provide
employee housing.
BACKGROUND: The applicant represents "There were formerly five
residential units on the subject property, four in one structure
and one in another. The two structures were found to contain
many deficiencies under the Uniform Housing Code. The applicants
acquired the property in April, 1985, and have replaced the two
structures containing five units with one structure containing
three units.
Prior to the demolition and reconstruction, the four -unit wood
frame apartment building contained Units, 2,3,4 and 5. Unit 3
had been occupied by the prior owner's son for the preceding
eighteen (18) months. Unit 4 had been occupied by the prior
owner's mother for the preceding eighteen (18) months. Unit 5
had been occupied by the prior owners for the preceding eighteen
(18) months. Unit 3, containing 500 square feet, had been rented
at a monthly rental of $650.00 per month for the preceding
eighteen (18) months. Unit 1, a log cabin, contained 528 square
feet, and had been rented for $650.00 for the preceding eighteen.
(18) months. The above described rental history shows that the
former units were not renting within the then current guidelines
for low, moderate or middle income housing, and that therefor,
condominiumization approval shall not require employee housing
restrictions. The existing three units are rented on a short-
term basis."
The applicant further states " The requirement for providing a
right of first refusal to existing tenants stated in Section 2-
22 (a) is inappropriate in this instance due to the short term
nature of the rental arrangements.
The six (6) month minimum lease requirement specified in Subsec-
tion 20-22 (b) is not applicable to this property since the
property is located in the Lodge Zone. Units in the Lodge Zone
are intended to remain in the short-term rental market to be used
as temporary accommodations available to the general public.
The approval of this application will not reduce the supply of
low and moderate income housing, a requirement for condomir.
iumization under Subsection 20-33 (c), since the proposal has no
effect on the size or number of units. The units are newly
constructed units and the market will dictate the rental costs of
the units. The units are presently rented on snort -term basis.
HOUSING AUTHORITY RECOMMENDATION: The Housing Authority recom-
mends approval of the request for condominiumization and requires
no employee generation will be required.

ME MORANDU M
TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Steve Burstein, Planning Office
RE: Aspen r'ountain Townhomes Condominiumization
DATE: May 6, 1986
ZONING: L-2
LOCATION: 623 S. Monarch, Lot 11, Block 1, Connors Addition to
the City of Aspen.
APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant proposes to condominiumize
the three (3) recently built townhome ur_its and requests to be
exempted f rom the six (6) month minimum deed -restriction under
Section 20-22(c) of the Municipal Code.
BACKGROUND: The existing structure is a reconstruction of two
structures that contained a total of five (5) residential units.
The original structures were non -conforming as to setbacks, FAR,
open space, residential density and parking requirements.
Variances were granted by the Board of Adjustment on March 28,
1985 (Case No. 85-4) allowing non -conformities in yard setbacks.
APPLICABLE SECTIONS OF MUNICIPAL CODE: Section 20-22 of the
Municipal Code sets forth the requirements by which a subdivision
exception for the purpose of condominiumization may be approved.
Included in this section are the following requirements:
a. Existing tenants shall be given notice of sale and right of
first refusal.
b. All units shall be restricted to six (6) month minimum lease
restrictions with no more than two shorter tenancies per
year.
C. Demonstration that approval will not reduce the supply of
low and moderate income housing must be provided.
d. The units shall be inspected by the Building Department
prior to condominiumization.
Section 20-19(c) states:
"The City Council may grant exception from the application
of the standards and requirements of this (Subdivision)
Chapter and grant final subdivision approval when the City
Council, in its sole discretion and judgment, deems certain
requirements to be redundant, serve no public purposes and
be unnecessary in relation to the land use policies of the
City of Aspen under the facts and circumstances presented
and, notwithstanding finds that the proposed subdivision
will substantially comply with the design standards of this
Chapter."
This section gives Council the ability to grant the subdivision
exception for condominiumization as well as exempt the property
from the six (6) month minimum lease deed -restriction.
PROBLEM DISCUSSION:
A. REFERRAL COMMENTS
1. Engineering Department - In a memorandum from Jim
Gibbard dated April 30, the following comments were
made:
a. An area should be designated for a trash dumpster.
b. The plat should include the surveyor's signature
and seal as well as other required signature
blocks.
2. Housing Authority - On tray 1, 1986
the Housing Author-
ity reviewed the application with
regard to impact on
the supply of low and moderate
income housinq and
concluded that a deed -restriction
to employee housing
guidelines is not appropriate.
An affidavit was
submitted from former owners Ted
and nary Armstrong
attesting to the rental history of
the old units prior
to demolition, exceeding employee
housing guidelines.
Attorney Kaufman states in the application,
verified by
signature of John Olson, that the
rebuilt units, have
been short -termed and rented well in excess of the
employee housing guidelines.
B. STAFF COMMENTS: In condominiumization of a multi -family
residential structure, the main issues are displacement, the
effect on employee housing, six month minimum lease restric-
tion (long -terming), health and safety of living conditions
and platting requirements. The Housing Authority determined
that the units have not fallen within the employee housing
guidelines and we agree with their recommendation that no
units be deed -restricted.
With regard to displacement and long-term restrictions, the
applicant believes that neither the notice of sale and
richt-of-first refusal nor the six-month minimum deed
restriction should apply to the Aspen Mountain Townhomes.
The intention of the L-2 zone in Section 24-3.2 is:
"To encourage construction and renovation of lodges in
the area at the base of Aspen Mountain and to allow
construction to tourist oriented single-family, duplex
and multi -family units."
Therefore, it is reasonable that given the location of the
townhomes and their current use as short-term accommoda-
tions, the requirements for the six month minimum deed
restriction and right of first refusal "would serve no
public purpose and be unnecessary in relation to the land
use policies of the City" and should be exempted. The
recent precedents for this exception include the approvals
granted to 700 S. Galena and the residential units in the
base mountain lodge.
RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office recommends to the Planning
Commission to recommend approval by Council of the requested
subdivision exception for the purpose of condom iniumization
subject to the following conditions:
1. A Statement of Subdivision shall be filed to the satisfac-
tion of the City Attorney prior to recordation of the plat.
2. The applicant shall agree to join the Special Improvement
District for lodge area and any other special districts that
include this property and shall state this commitment in the
Statement of Subdivision Exception.
3. A plat shall be filed with the Clerk and Recorder of Pitkin
County to the satisfaction of the City Engineer which
includes designation of a trash dumpster area and common
element areas in the yards.

Re: Aspen Mountain Townhouses Condominiumization
Dear Ann:
Per our telephone conversation on Friday, I write this
letter to clarify any questions that might exist concerning
the condominiumization of the three -unit project presently
being sought. The project was purchased from Ted Armstrong.
At the time of the purchase, we secured the Affidavit from
him stating that the property was occupied by family members,
and that the two units that were rented exceeded the
guidelines. This Affidavit was necessary because Ted
Armstrong was leaving town, and his record keeping was not
the greatest. We did not have good records or releases from
him to establish the then applicable rates.
After the unit was sold to my clients, my clients did
not rent out the property until after it was torn down and
rebuilt. This Winter, it was occupied on a short-term basis
for very high rental rates, clearly outside of any low or
moderate income guidelines.
I believe that the Affidavit from Ted Armstrong, along
with this clarification information, should be sufficient to
find that the property is not subject to any rental
restrictions. If you feel it would be helpful, I would be
more than happy to attend the board meeting this week to
answer any additional questions. Thank you for your help and
consideration.
Very truly yours,

Dear Ted:
On October 29, 1984, this department inspected your premises located at
623 S. Monarch St., at your request, to identity tire, life and safety
hazards. Five dwelling units contained in two separate buildings were
inspected for conditions considered "substandard" as defined in the Uniform
Housing Code. The deficiencies by unit and in general follow:
Two Story Building (4 units)
General
1. Repair deteriorated exterior stairways.
2. Water heater vent on north side of building must extend above
roof.
3. The electrical service on the north side of building requires
support for the subfeed cable, and waterpipe and supplemental
grounding.
4. Emergency egress/rescue windows must be provided from all
sleeping rooms. The "legal" required size for these windows
is at least 5 square feet of net clear opening with no dimension
less than 22 inches. The sill height cannot be more than 48"
from the floor.
5. Smoke detectors must be installed on the ceiling outside of
sleeping rooms.
6. Provide a "ground -fault circuit -interrupter" protected receptacle
in all bathrooms.-.
Top Floor Unit
1. Check all electrical receptacles for grounding and polarity.
Several receptacles have reversed polarity.
2. Provide permanent, 3'-wire connection for disposal and counter
mixer now wired with extension cord.
3. The flourescent fixture in the living room closet is closer than
6" to the storage shelf. It must be moved, and the loose wiring
secured.
4. Add a receptacle for the counter area to the right of the
kitchen sink.
Ground Floor West Unit
1. Secure dangling wire in entry closet.
2. Electrical panel needs a cover.

Ground Floor East Unit
1. The incandescent fixture in the living room closet is too close
to the storage shelf. An enclosed fluorescent type fixture will work
in that location.
Basement Unit
1. Provide a handrail on basement stairway.
2. Provide a smoke detector in the storage area that will sound in the
bedroom because the storage/utility room is a likely area for a
fire, and it is between the unit and tl,o exit, aarly Wdining to a
sleeping occupant is necessary in the event of a fire in this area.
3. Cover open junction boxes in the ceiling and complete any incomplete
wiring.
4. Permanently wire the disposal.
5. Exposed wire splices at the furnace must be concealed in an electrical
box.
Separate Pan Abode Unit
I. Repair roof leak and replace damaged drywall on ceiling.
2. Check all electrical receptacles for grounding and polarity.
3. Remedy the unsafe wiring method at water heater and range.
4. The location of the electrical panel is not "readily accessible" in
the kitchen cabinet.
The correction of the above mentioned deficiencies will not bring your buildings
up —to comes ur intent is t`o provide safe aid—h-ab-ffabre--un rs--by -

RE: Review Comments on Carriage House GMP Amendment Energy Components
Listed below are the RFEC comments on the Carriage House proposed
energy conservation features as listed on page 9.
1. Repositioning the decks to allow the sun to freely enter the bay
windows will greatly help in providing a free source of heat for the
proposed rooms. This will decrease the amount of conventional, non-
renewable energy needed to heat these spaces.
2. Eliminating the use of electric heat was a very wise choice. It may
be less expensive to install, but future operating costs would far
exceed those associated with hot water heating systems. As well,
electricity generated from centralized power plants creates a great
deal of environmental pollution. Further, over two-third's of the
the electrical energy generated at the power plant is lost in the
transmission to it's end use.
3. Using mass floors for storing solar energy is one of the most cost-
effective strategies for helping to heat spaces. This excellent
feature is reinforced with above code insulation levels which will
help retain this stored heat, thus reducing utility bills.
4. The active solar heating system is another welcome change from the
1982 proposal. Although, it must be stressed that the 12 solar panels
will only assist the conventional heating system and not provide all
the heat needed. This is a good strategy though because trying to serve
100% of the heating load would be very uneconomical. The exact percentage
is impossible to define without further information on the system. It
would probably be less than 50%.
In summary, all of the proposed changes Zook very good from an energy
conservation perspective. Using both passive solar features and an active
solar system makes sense. This blending of renewable energy components
should make for an energy -efficient development. Based on the limited
amount of detail available for our review, we have nothing but praise for
the Carriage House Amendment's energy components.

Environmental Health Dept.
DATE: April /, 1986
RE: Carriage House GMP Amendment, Parcel I.D. #2735-131-05-002
(Case #09A-96)
----------------------------------------------------------------
The above mentioned submittal has been reviewed by the Aspen/Pitkin
Environmental Health Department for the following concerns:
AIR POLLUTION
This concern has been reviewed for vehicle pollution, woodburning
pollution, restaurant grill pollution and demolition pollution.
Vehicle Air Pollution
It will be the requirement of this office that adequate air
handling facilities be designed into the complex to eliminate
any buildup of air contaminates inside the underground
parking structures.
Woodburning Pollution
The applicant will be required to comply with Ordinance
5, Series of 1986 which addresses the type, design and
numbers of woodburning devices allowed per structure.
It is apparent that after a conversation with Mr. David
Gibson (architect) that only one conventional fireplace is
planned for the hotel lobby. Also, one certified woodburning
device may be installed in another location within the
hotel. This is in conformance with the above referenced
ordinance and its restrictions.
Restaurant Grill Pollution
Compliance with Section 11-2.4 of the Aspen Municipal Code
titled "Restaurant Grills" will be required.
This section addresses the type of cooking devices which can
be installed and operated in new or remodeled food service
establishments.
Demolition Air Pollution
According to the submittal there will be demolition of
130 South Galena Street Aspen, Colorado B1611 303/925-2020
Page Two
Carriage House GMP Amendment
April 7, 1986
existing structures in preparation for the proposed new
building construction.
It will be a requirement of the applicant to initiate any or
all customary air pollution control measures to minimize
fugitive dust (wind blown) leaving the property. This may
take t he ivL,u vi continuous water application on the immediate
work site through the use of sprinklers or hoses, use of
dust suppressants or fencing the site. Whichever control
measure is used, it must be effective.
As a point of information, none of the demolished materials
can be burned. It must all be hauled to a designated landfill.
The demolition activities shall comply with Regulation 1
Section III, D, 2, h titled "Demolition Activities" of the
"Colorado Air Quality Control Regulations and Ambient Air
Quality Standards", Revised March 1983.
The applicant shall be responsible for the removal of any
dirt or mud carryout from the project site onto City streets
and State highways. Daily cleaning of impacted streets and
highways will be required with the use of mechanical sweepers
that will pick up the dirt rather than simply pushing it to
the curb. The removed dirt will then be redeposited back on

APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR CONDOMINIUMIZATION
PURSUANT TO SECTION 20-19 (a) SUBDIVISION EXCEPTION
This application, submitted on behalf of Charles Rolles
and John Olson, requests exception from the full subdivision
process for the condominiumization of three existing units
located in one structure, known as the Aspen Mountain
Townhouses. The real property is described as follows: Lot
11, Block 1, Connor's Addition to the City of Aspen, Pitkin
County, Colorado (commonly known as 623 South Monarch
Street) .
Adherence to the full subdivision regulations would
result in undue hardship to the applicants for the following
reason:
The proposed condominiumization has no
effect on the allowable density or
distribution, proposed use, or pattern of
development for the subject parcel.
There were formerly five residential units on the
subject property, four in one structure and one in another.
The two structures were examnined by the Pitkin County
Building Department for fire, life and safety hazards on
October 29, 1984. The two structures were found to contain
many deficiencies under the Uniform Housing Code. The
applicants acquired the property in April, 1985, and have
replaced the two structures containing five units with one
- 1 -
structure containing three units.
Prior to the demolition and reconstruction, the
four -unit wood frame apartment building contained Units 2, 3,
4 and 5. Unit 2 had been occupied by the prior owner's son
for the preceding eighteen (18) months. Unit 4 had been
occupied by the prior owner's mother for the preceding
eighteen (18) months. Unit 5 had been occupied by the prior
owners for the preceding eighteen (18) months. Unit 3,
containing 500 square feet, had been rented at a monthly
rental of $650.00 per month for the preceding eighteen (18)
months. Unit 1, a log cabin, contained 528 square feet, and
had been rented for $650.00 for the preceding eighteen (18)
months. The above -described rental history for the prior
units demonstrates that none of the former units were renting
within the then current guidelines for low, moderate or
middle income housing, and that therefore, condominiumization
approval shall not require employee housing restictions. The
existing three units are rented on a short-term basis.
Condominiumization permits the separate ownership of
each unit and the common ownership of certain designated
common areas. This application contemplates the creation of
a declaration of covenants and restrictions which shall
govern the subject units, and a condominium map which shall
depict the areas in separate ownership and the areas in
common ownership.
- 2 -
The condominium format results in no impact on the
density or use of the units. The units will remain as
residential units, occupied by an owner or tenant. The
development pattern for the parcel is not impacted in that
Code requirements for building setbacks and floor area ratio
remain in effect. The approval of this application for
subdivision exception does not contravene the intent and
purpose of the full subdivision procedure. The purpose of
the full subdivision procedure is:
To assist the orderly, efficient and integrated
development of the City of Aspen; to insure the
proper distribution of population and coordinate
the need for public services with governmental
improvement programs; to encourage well -planned
subdivision by setting standards for subdivision
design and improvement; to improve land records and
survey monuments by establishing standards for
surveys, plans and plats; to safeguard the
interests of the public and the subdivider and
provide consumer protection for the purchaser; to
acquire desirable public areas; and to otherwise
promote the health, safety and general welfare of
the residents and visitors to the City of Aspen.
Subsection 20-2, "Purpose and Intent" Aspen Municipal Code.
The proposed condominiumization does not impact the
following concerns expressed as the purposes for the
subdivision regulations: the need for public services,
planned subdivision, survey standards, and consumer
protection. The granting of this application is not
detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other
property in the area since the result of the proposed
condominiumization is a change in the ownership format.
- 3 -
a
The three units are newly constructed and conform to
present building code requirements. The units require no
physical adaptation to effect individual ownership through
condominiumization.
The requirement for providing a right of first refusal
to existing tenants stated in § 20-22(a) is inappropriate in
this instance due to the short term nature of the rental
arrangements.
The six (6) month minimum lease requirement specified in
Subsection 20-22(b) is not applicable to this property since
the property is located in the Lodge Zone. Units in the
Lodge Zone are intended to remain in the short-term rental
market to be used as temporary accommodations available to
the general public.
The approval of this application will not reduce the
supply of low and moderate income housing, a requirement for
condominiumization under Subsection 20-22(c), since the
proposal has no effect on the size or number of units. The
units are newly constructed units and the market will dictate
the rental costs of the units. The units are presently
rented on a short-term basis.
The recent construction of these units insures that they
meet current fire, health and safety requirements consistent
with Subsection 20-22(e).
