Main Street Parcel ID No. 273707325017 and 273707325018 APPLICANTS: James and Lindsay Smith REPRESENTATIVE: Herbert Klein, Klein Cote Edwards Citron, LLC SUBJECT & SITE OF EXEMPTION: Growth Management Quota System (GMQS) Exemption for Concept 600 Condominiums, commonly known as 600 E. Main Street, involving the combining of units 302 and 303. SUMMARY: The Applicant has requested a GMQS exemption to combine two residential multi -family units in the Concept 600 Condominiums. Typically, this scope of work would trigger a GMQS Review under Section 26.470.100.E, Demolition or redevelopment of multi- family housing. Section 26.470.100.E includes the provision that the combining, demolition, conversion, or redevelopment of multi -family housing shall be approved, approved with condition or denied by the Planning and Zoning Commission and that the development must provide affordable housing mitigation unless the subject dwelling units qualify for an exemption from the GMQS review. This GMQS section contains a list of exemptions from the affordable housing mitigation provision. The Applicant is pursuing the following exemption for the combining of units 302 and 303: 26.470.100.E(8)(c), Exemptions: "The demolition, combining, conversion, replacement, or redevelopment of Multi - Family Housing Units which have been used exclusively as tourist accommodations or by non -working residents. The Community Development Director may require occupancy records, leases, affidavits, or other documentation to the satisfaction of the Director to demonstrate that the unit(s) has never housed a working resident. All other requirements of this Title shall apply including zoning, growth management, and building codes. " The Applicant has submitted a number of affidavits stating that neither Unit 302 nor 303 have been used for anything other than tourist accommodations. These include letters from current and former owners of the subject units and other units within the Concept 600 Condominiums. I (IIIII II III IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII IIII II I III IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIIIII II IIII RECEPTION#: 637590, R: $18.00, D: $0.00 Page 1 of 2 DOC CODE: APPRWIAL Pg 1 of 2, 04/14/2017 at 04:09:29 PM Janice K. Vos Caudill, Pitkin County, CO STAFF EVALUATION: Staff believes the affidavits provide sufficient proof to justify the GMQS exemption from Multi -Family Replacement for the proposal at the Concept 600 Condominiums. It would be appropriate for the Applicant to combine Units 302 and 303 without having to provide mitigation for affordable housing. This approval does not negate the requirement to obtain building permit and the Applicant shall do so prior to any commencement of work on the property. The property is located in the Commercial (C-1) zone district. New free-market residential units are no longer a permitted use. Existing free-market units may be combined, provided that there is no increase in net livable area or Floor Area. There is also a maximum unit size of 2,000 sq. ft. net livable area. The application shows the units to be 944 sq. ft. (Unit 302) and 942 sq. ft. (Unit 303), which combined would be 1,888 sq. ft. Total existing and proposed net livable area and Floor Area will be verified as part of the building permit. DECISION: The Community Development Director finds the application (Exhibit A) for GMQS Multi -Family Replacement Exemption for the combining of two units (Unit 302 and 303) at the Concept 600 Condominiums demonstrates that the units have never housed working residents and thereby, APPROVES the exemption with the following conditions: 1. The Applicant shall obtain a building permit prior to commencement of any work on the property. 2. The building permit application shall represent that no additional net livable area or Floor Area is created, and that the total net livable area does not exceed 2,000 sq. ft.

When combined, the resulting unit (the "Combined Unit") will have less than the 2000 sq. ft. of net livable floor area allowed in the C-1 Zone district. Under the C-1 zone district regulations, the combination of residential condominium units is expressly allowed. This application demonstrates that it qualifies for an exemption from Growth Management under Code Section 26.470.070.5.8 (c) by providing affidavits proving that no local working residents have occupied either of the units. I. ZONE DISTRICT REQUIREMENTS: Code Section 26.720.150 D.14, setting forth the C-1 Zone District requirements, states in relevant part: 14. Net Livable Area (square feet): b) Free -Market Residential: Overall net livable area for a building or project is limited to the existing net livable square footage. No expansion to overall net livable area shall be permitted. Any subsequent reduction in net livable area occupied by such residential use shall be deemed a new limitation and the use shall not thereafter be enlarged to occupy a greater net livable area. Individual units shall be limited to 2,000 sq. ft. of net livable area. iii. Combination of Free -Market residential units is permitted, but subject to the net livable size Iimitations herein. (Emphasis added.) No additional floor area will be created as a result of the combination of the units. Attached at Exhibits 7 and 8 are floor plans showing the existing units (Ex.7) and the Combined Unit (Ex. 8). At the time of building permit application, the applicant will demonstrate with detailed building plans and dimensions, that no additional floor area is created by the combination of these units. II. GMQS EXEMPTION: Under Code Section 26.470.070.5.8 (c), the combination of units is exempt from Growth Management if the units have not been occupied by working residents. This section of the Code states: c. The demolition, combining, conversion, replacement, or redevelopment of MuIti- Family Housing Units which have been used exclusively as tourist accommodations or by non -working residents. The Community Development Director may require occupancy records, leases, affidavits, or other documentation to the satisfaction of the Director to demonstrate that the unit(s) has never housed a working resident. All other requirements of this Title shall still apply including zoning, growth management, and building codes. Sara Nadolny July 15, 2016 Page 3 of 4 Attached at Exhibit 6 are rune (9) affidavits from past and current owners of the subject units and other units in the Concept 600 Condominiums as follows: (1) Clark Ficke: Co -Owner of Unit 202. He was an original owner of Unit 202. He purchased it in 1974 from J.R. Trueman & Associates, Inc., the developer of Concept 600.1 His affidavit certifies no working residents have occupied Unit 302 since that time. (2) Patty Ficke: Co -Owner of Unit 202. She is the spouse of Clark Fricke, an original owner of Unit 202. She began using Unit 202 in the mid-1980's. Her affidavit certifies no working residents have occupied Unit 302 since at least the mid-1980's. (3) Robert Borcherts: Owner of Unit 208: His affidavit certifies no working residents have occupied Units 302 and 303 since at least 1975, when he purchased his unit. (4) Marie Heys: Former owner of Unit 303. Her affidavit certifies no working residents occupied Unit 303 since at least 1982, when she purchased her unit. (5) Richard Coppock: Owner of Unit 407. His affidavit certifies no working residents occupied Units 302 and 303 since at least 1984, when he purchased his unit. (6) Katryn Arnold: Former owner of Unit 301. Her affidavit certifies that during her ownership (1989-2006), no working residents occupied Units 302 and 303. (7) Sharon Pryor: Former owner of Unit 302. Her affidavit certifies no working residents occupied Unit 302 during her term of ownership (1995-2000). (8) James Smith (Applicant): Certifies that: (i) he and his wife Lindsay Smith are not working residents; (ii) they have owned and occupied Unit 302 since 2000; (iii) they purchased Unit 303 in 2014; (iv) they have learned from other owners and occupants in the Concept 600 building that there have not been any instances when Units 302 and 303 have housed a working resident; and (v) the information they have goes back to the early 1970's, when Concept 600 was first built (see affidavit of Clark Ficke —1974, and affidavit of Robert Borcherts - 1975). (9) Lindsay Smith (Applicant): Same certifications as above by James Smith. The affidavits from Clark Fricke and Robert Borcherts provide conclusive evidence that no local working resident ever occupied Units 302 or Unit 303. Concept 600's construction was completed in late 1973 and the first sales occurred the following year. The additional affidavits from different owners covering later time periods provide corroboration for subsequent years. 1 Mr. Ficke's affidavit incorrectly states the date of his acquisition as being in 1970. His deed, recorded Jan. 16, 1974, in Book 283, page 494, is from the developer of Concept 600 and is dated Dec. 20, 1973. Sara Nadolny July 15, 2016 Page 4 of 4 The scope of all the affidavits demonstrates that this application is eligible for the exemption provided by Code section 26.470.070.5.8(c). III. AFFORDABLE HOUSING: Because the exemption under Sec. 26.470.070.5.8.0 applies, the combination of these units is exempt from Growth Management, no affordable housing mitigation is required. For the foregoing reasons, we respectfully request that the combination of these units be approved. Thank you very much for your consideration of this application.

(8) James Smith (Applicant): Certifies that: (i) he and his wife Lindsay Smith are not working residents; (ii) they have owned and occupied Unit 302 since 2000; (iii) they purchased Unit 303 in 2014; (iv) they have learned from other owners and occupants in the Concept 600 building that there have not been any instances when Units 302 and 303 have housed a working resident; and (v) the information they have goes back to the early 1970's, when Concept 600 was first built (see affidavit of Clark Ficke —1974, and affidavit of Robert Borcherts - 1975). I Mr. Ficke's affidavit incorrectly states the date of his acquisition as being in 1970. His deed, recorded Jan. 16, 1974, in Book 283, page 494, is from the developer of Concept 600 and is dated Dec. 20, 1973. ' `ftw Iftev Jennifer Phelan March 17, 2017 Page 4 of 4 (9) Lindsay Smith (Applicant): Same certifications as above by James Smith. The affidavits from Clark Fricke and Robert Borcherts provide conclusive evidence that no local working resident ever occupied Units 302 or Unit 303, Concept 600's construction was completed in late 1973 and the first sales occurred the following year. The additional affidavits from different owners covering later time periods provide corroboration for subsequent years. The scope of all the affidavits demonstrates that this application is eligible for the exemption provided by Code section 26.470,070.5.8(c). III. AFFORDABLE HOUSING: Because the exemption under Sec. 26.470.070.5.8.0 applies, the combination of these units is exempt from Growth Management, no affordable housing mitigation is required. For the foregoing reasons, we respectfully request that the combination of these units be approved. Thank you very much for your consideration of this application.

Main St. Updated., 7.7.2016 REPRESENTATIVE: Herb Klein, 970.925.8700 REQUEST: Growth Management DESCRIPTION: The owner of free-market units 302 & 303 within the Concept 600 building is interested in combining these units. This is a mixed -use building within the C-1 zone district, and contains a combination of commercial and residential uses. Free-market housing is no longer a permitted use within this zone district; however, a recent code amendment was passed (Ordinance No. 25, Series of 2015) that allows the reconfiguration of pre-existing units within a mixed -use project, so long as no new net livable square footage is added to the project. The size of any free-market unit in the C-1 zone district is limited to 2,000 sq. ft. The applicant will need to show how this this size cap is met without turning any shared corridor or hallways space into free-market space. If this criterion is met, the request will be limited to a Growth Management Review application. The request to combine units will trigger demolition — essentially the removal of two units from Aspen's housing stock to create one new unit. According to Section 26.470.070.5, there are two options for replacing these demolished units, including the One -hundred -percent replacement and Fifty -percent -replacement options. In speaking with the project's representative the applicant is interested in pursuing the Fifty -percent -replacement option. The two units that will be demolished are both two bedroom units, therefore the applicant will be required to mitigate for the equivalent of one two -bedroom unit. This process requires a recommendation from APCHA and the review of the Planning and Zoning Commission in a public hearing. *Update: The applicants have indicated they have found evidence that meets the criteria of 26.470.070.5.8(c) — "The demolition, combining, conversion, replacement, or redevelopment of Multi - Family Housing Units which have been used exclusively as tourist accommodations or by non -working residents." This will be verified by Staff through occupancy records, leases, affidavits or other documentation, as requested, if the criterion is found to be met, the application shall be exempt from the requirements of Multi -Family Housing Unit replacement Below are links to the Land Use Application form and Land Use Code for your convenience: Land Use App: http://www.aspenpitkin.com/Portals/0/docs/City/Comdev/Apps%20and%20Fees/2013%201and%20u se0/o20app%20form.pdf Land Use Code: http://www.aspenpitkin com/Departments/Community-Development/Planning and Zoning/Title 26 Land -Use -Code/ Relevant Land Use Code Section(s): 26.304 Common Development Review Procedures 26.470.070.6 Demolition or redevelopment of multi -family housing ASLU GMQS 600 E.

Vicinity Maps Description of the Project and Satisfaction of Applicable Code Requirements: This application seeks approval to combine two residential condominium units at the Concept 600 Condominiums. The building is a mixed -use building, located in the C-1 zone district. The subject units are each two -bedroom units of less than 1000 sq. ft. in size, with Unit 302 having 944 sq.ft. and Unit 303 having 942 sq.ft. When combined, the resulting unit (the "Combined Unit") will have less than the 2000 sq. ft. of net livable floor area allowed in the C-1 Zone district. Under the C-1 zone district regulations, the combination of residential condominium units is expressly allowed. This application demonstrates that it qualifies for an exemption from Growth Management under Code Section 26.470.070.5.8 (c) by providing affidavits proving that no local working residents have occupied either of the units. I. ZONE DISTRICT REQUIREMENTS: Code Section 26.720.150 D.14, setting forth the C-1 Zone District requirements, states in relevant part: 14. Net Livable Area (square feet): b) Free -Market Residential: Overall net livable area for a building or project is limited to the existing net livable square footage. No expansion to overall net livable area shall be permitted. Any subsequent reduction in net livable area occupied by such residential use shall be deemed a new limitation and the use shall not thereafter be enlarged to occupy a greater net livable area. Individual units shall be limited to 2,000 sq. ft. of net livable area. iii. Combination of Free -Market residential units is permitted, but subject to the net livable size limitations herein. (Emphasis added.) No additional floor area will be created as a result of the combination of the units. Attached at Exhibits 7 and 8 are floor plans showing the existing units (Ex.7) and the Combined Unit (Ex. 8). At the time of building permit application, the applicant will demonstrate with detailed building plans and dimensions, that no additional floor area is created by the combination of these units. II. GMQS EXEMPTION: Under Code Section 26.470.070.5.8 (c), the combination of units is exempt from Growth Management if the units have not been occupied by working residents. This section of the Code states: `✓ Roe MqR Jennifer Phelan 17 201% March 17, 2017�� Page 3 of 4 `" 41177 A'sp' c. The demolition, combining, conversion, replacement, or redevelopment of Multi - Family Housing Units which have been used exclusively as tourist accommodations or by non -working residents. The Community Development Director may require occupancy records, leases, affidavits, or other documentation to the satisfaction of the Director to demonstrate that the unit(s) has never housed a working resident. All other requirements of this Title shall still apply including zoning, growth management, and building codes. Attached at Exhibit 6 are nine (9) affidavits from past and current owners of the subject units and other units in the Concept 600 Condominiums as follows: (1) Clark Ficke: Co -Owner of Unit 202. He was an original owner of Unit 202. He purchased it in 1974 from J.R. Trueman & Associates, Inc., the developer of Concept 600.1 His affidavit certifies no working residents have occupied Unit 302 since that time. (2) Patty Ficke: Co -Owner of Unit 202. She is the spouse of Clark Fricke, an original owner of Unit 202. She began using Unit 202 in the mid-1980's. Her affidavit certifies no working residents have occupied Unit 302 since at least the mid- 1980's. (3) Robert Borcherts: Owner of Unit 208: His affidavit certifies no working residents have occupied Units 302 and 303 since at least 1975, when he purchased his unit. (4) Marie Heys: Former owner of Unit 303. Her affidavit certifies no working residents occupied Unit 303 since at least 1982, when she purchased her unit. (5) Richard Coppock: Owner of Unit 407. His affidavit certifies no working residents occupied Units 302 and 303 since at least 1984, when he purchased his unit. (6) Katryn Arnold: Former owner of Unit 301. Her affidavit certifies that during her ownership (1989-2006), no working residents occupied Units 302 and 303. (7) Sharon Pryor: Former owner of Unit 302. Her affidavit certifies no working residents occupied Unit 302 during her term of ownership (1995-2000). (8) James Smith (Applicant): Certifies that: (i) he and his wife Lindsay Smith are not working residents; (ii) they have owned and occupied Unit 302 since 2000; (iii) they purchased Unit 303 in 2014; (iv) they have learned from other owners and occupants in the Concept 600 building that there have not been any instances when Units 302 and 303 have housed a working resident; and (v) the information they have goes back to the early 1970's, when Concept 600 was first built (see affidavit of Clark Ficke — 1974, and affidavit of Robert Borcherts - 1975). 1 Mr. Ficke's affidavit incorrectly states the date of his acquisition as being in 1970. His deed, recorded Jan. 16, 1974, in Book 283, page 494, is from the developer of Concept 600 and is dated Dec. 20, 1973. 073 M Jennifer Phelan March 41 f,4 017 G'd qi� 17 2 Page o (9) Lindsay Smith (Applicant): Same certifications as above by James Smith. The affidavits from Clark Fricke and Robert Borcherts provide conclusive evidence that no local working resident ever occupied Units 302 or Unit 303. Concept 600's construction was completed in late 1973 and the first sales occurred the following year. The additional affidavits from different owners covering later time periods provide corroboration for subsequent years. The scope of all the affidavits demonstrates that this application is eligible for the exemption provided by Code section 26.470.070.5.8(c). III. AFFORDABLE HOUSING: Because the exemption under Sec. 26.470.070.5.8.0 applies, the combination of these units is exempt from Growth Management, no affordable housing mitigation is required. For the foregoing reasons, we respectfully request that the combination of these units be approved. Thank you very much for your consideration of this application.

Main St. Updated: 7.7.2016 REPRESENTATIVE: Herb Klein, 970.925.8700 REQUEST: Growth Management DESCRIPTION: The owner of free-market units 302 & 303 within the Concept 600 building is interested in combining these units. This is a mixed -use building within the C-1 zone district, and contains a combination of commercial and residential uses. Free-market housing is no longer a permitted use within this zone district; however, a recent code amendment was passed (Ordinance No. 25, Series of 2015) that allows the reconfiguration of pre-existing units within a mixed -use project, so long as no new net livable square footage is added to the project. The size of any free-market unit in the C-1 zone district is limited to 2,000 sq. ft. The applicant will need to show how this this size cap is met without turning any shared corridor or hallways space into free-market space. If this criterion is met, the request will be limited to a Growth Management Review application. The request to combine units will trigger demolition — essentially the removal of two units from Aspen's housing stock to create one new unit. According to Section 26.470.070.5, there are two options for replacing these demolished units, including the One -hundred -percent replacement and Fifty -percent -replacement options. In speaking with the project's representative the applicant is interested in pursuing the Fifty -percent -replacement option. The two units that will be demolished are both two bedroom units, therefore the applicant will be required to mitigate for the equivalent of one two -bedroom unit. This process requires a recommendation from APCHA and the review of the Planning and Zoning Commission in a public hearing. *Update: The applicants have indicated they have found evidence that meets the criteria of 26.470.070.5.8(c) — "The demolition, combining, conversion, replacement, or redevelopment of Multi - Family Housing Units which have been used exclusively as tourist accommodations or by non -working residents." This will be verified by Staff through occupancy records, leases, affidavits or offset documentation, as requested. If the criterion is found to be met, the application shall be exempt f vin the requirements of Multi -Family Housing Unit replacement.

We started occupying it in November, 2001. We acquired Unit 303 in 2014. 2. I have spoken with many other owners of units in the Concept 600 Condominiums to learn about the history of occupancy of Units 302 and 303 and I have not been told of any instance when Units 302 and 303 housed a working resident as defined by the Aspen/Pitkin Housing Authority. Some of this information goes back to the early 1970's, when Concept 600 was built. Our personal knowledge of Units 302 and 303 is consistent with this since the time of our acquisition of unit 302 in 2000. 3. Although both Lindsay and I are permanent residents of Aspen, neither of us are or have been working residents as defined by the Aspen/Pitkin Housing Authority. FURTHER AFFIANT SAYETH NOT.
