WHEREAS, the applicant, Elk' s Lodge #224, represented by Jack Wheeler, has
requested minor development approval to build a stair accessway on the roof of the Elk' s
Building, located at 210 S. Galena Street. The property is a designated landmark and is
located within the Commercial Core Historic District; and
WHEREAS, all development in an "H," Historic Overlay District or development
involving a historic landmark must meet all four Development Review Standards of
Section 26.72.010(D) of the Aspen Land Use Code in order for HPC to grant approval,
namely:
1. Standard: The proposed development is compatible in general design, massing
and.,v.01um{ scale and site 'plan with designated historic structures located on the
pm'c~l/and with development on adjacent parcels when the subject site is in a "H,"
Historic Over!ay District or is adjacent to an Historic Landmark. For Historic
Landmarks where ~'roposed development would extend into front yard, side yard
and rear yard setbacks, extend into the minimum distance between buildings on the
lot or exceed the allowed floor area by up to five hundred (500) square feet or the
allowed site coverage by up to five (5) percent, HPC may grant such variances after
making a finding that such variation is more compatible in character with the
historic landmark and the neighborhood, than would be development in accord with
dimensional requirements. In no event shall variations pursuant to this section
exceed those variations allowed under the Cottage Infill Program for detached
accessory dwelling units pursuant to Section 26.40.090(B)(2).
2. Standard: The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the
character of the neighborhood of the parcel proposed for development.
3. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not detract from
the historic significance of designated historic structures located on the
parcel proposed for development or on adjacent parcels.
4. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not diminish from
the architectural character or integrity of a designated historic structure or
part thereof; and
WHEREAS, Amy Gutkrie, in her staff report dated March 10, 1999, recommended a
