Zoning Commission recommended, by a six to zero (6 to 0) vote, that the Aspen City
Council approve the Conceptual Planned Unit Development for the Bavarian Inn

Development Department as contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Commission:
That City Council should approve this Conceptual Planned Unit Development application
for the Bavarian Inn Affordable Housing project subject to the following conditions.

1. If the requested mzoning of Parcel 2 from R-15 to R-MF/PUD is not approved, this
Conceptual PUD approval shall be rendered null and void.
For the Final PUD application, the proposed Site Development Plan shall be revised
as follows, with final determination to be made at Final PUD review:
a. The Bleeker Street frontage of the property shall remain undeveloped (with the
exception Of N1) to serve as a play area, court yard and open space. Trees
located outside of the areas designated for driveway, sidewalk and parking shall
be preserved with final determination to be made by the Parks Department.
b. Parking shall meet as closely as possible with the off-street parking standards of
Section 26.515, however; a minimum of 30 parking spaces shall be allocated for
the entire PUD.
c. Vehicular access to parking shall be signed in order to limit access to the
development from the Bleeker Street and from the east end of the alley, with the
exception of the existing parking spaces accessed from Seventh Street, in front of
the Bavarian Inn.

be restricted to right-in and right-out ouiy. Once Highway 82 has been realigned
to Main Street, the Seventh/Main Street intersection has been signalized, and
traffic volumes on Seventh have decreased, the right-in and right-out only
restriction may be removed after further analysis by the City's staff upon
application for an insubstantial PUD amendment to allow left turn movements to
and from the alley.

of species, spacing of plantings, and tree relocation, preservation, and removal
requirements. The plan shall also demonstrate consistency with the recommendations
of the "Entrance to Aspen Main Street Design Report." In association with the
landscape plan, the applicant shall provide plans or documents describing provisions
for the on-going maintenance of all common areas and for ensuring landscape success
