The City granted all necessary approvals and issued a development order March 23,2002,
for your proposed redevelopment of 615 East Bleeker Street. The peri09 ofyested rights
is three years and the development order is valid until the expiration date of March 24,

The City app~eciates your invo~vement in the Obermeyer COWOP review. Your property
is central to this project's success and your willingness to postpone your own
redevelopment plans is admirable. In light of your participation and intentionally
delaying your own redevelopment plans, the City should look favorably on, a request to'
extend your vested rights if you should find. such an extension necessary. Submission of
a' letter to the Community Development .DireCtor, 'prior to the expiration of the
development order, is all that is needed to request and extension.
Please let me know if i can answer any further' questions.

DATE:
March 11, 2002
SUMMARY:
Bill Murphy, owner of 615 East Bleeker Street, has applied for commercial growth
management development allotments to accommodate an expansion of his
commercial building located in the SCI Zone District. The development proposal
involves reconstruction of an approximately 1,000 square foot commercial building to
1,600 square feet of net leasable space. The reconstruction of existing commercial
development requires mitigation of affordable housing and parking as if no building
existed prior to demolition.
The proposal also includes the conversion of an existing 1,200 square foot building
from residential storage to commercial use. 2,800 square feet of commercial
development is the total commercial square footage requiring affordable housing and
parking mitigation, although a portion of this space is reconstructed space. The
proposal includes three one-bedroom affordable housing units.
The GMQS process requires scoring by the Growth Management Commission
(GMC). Projects must achieve minimum "threshold" scores in various categories in
order to proceed. The GMC reviewed this project and assigned a passing score to
each ofthe scoring criteria (scoring summary attached). The Pitkin County Board of
County Commissioners accepted the GMC scores. The process now requires
acceptance of the scoring and granting of the allotments by City Council.
Adoption of this ordinance will allow the project to proceed according to the
conditions of approval required by the Growth Management Commission. The GMC
resolution is attached.

MURPHY DEVELOPMENT
GMQS APPLICATION
615 E. Bleeker St.
Lot 2, Gignoux-Lynch Subdivision

PROJECT OVERVIEW
There is a growing contrast between the S/CIIZone l)i~triGtC!Qg sLJrr()LJQqiQg
areas that have experienced a "renaissance" in the past few years. The SICII
zone has stagnated and lacks the economic vitality of the rest of Aspen.
Businesses in the SICII zone, once considered essential to the community, have
migrated out of town, and property owners in the zone district have invested little
in their buildings. Ultimately reclamation of this zone district must occur. This
project is not intended to initiate any such transformation, but only to buffer the
transition.
The modest growth proposed in this application may not be the highest and best
use of the property, but it provides commercial space with reasonable rents, and
three affordable housiOg units. An aged and dilapidated building that
encroaches into an alley will be demolished and replaced with a new mixed-use
building. A second building, currently under construction for residential storage,
will be converted to commercial use.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Architectural Design
The expected return on investment for leasable space in the SICII Zone is
limited. Although there may be some market demand, the rent cap is low.
Considering these economic constraints any capital expenditure in the S/C/I
Zone must be limited. Those same economic constraints have stymied past
interest in neighborhood rehabilitation and revitaliz~tion. For tl]isproject to be
economically feasible, a simple, inexpensive design is proposed. The challenge
of this project is to introduce some design integrity into a ramshackle
neighborhood, rich in character, at a reasonable expense.
The architecture of the proposed mixed-use building will itself be a tasteful
mixture of materials that are compatible with the rather architecturally eclectic
neighborhood. The scale and height of both buildings successfully integrates
with existing buildings in the S/C/I Zone District. Massing and siting of the
proposed buildings, relative to the existing buildings, is intended to create a
plaza effect.
Site Design
A primary objective of this project is to improve the quality and character of the
existing site. That commitment is apparent on the site plan provided.
Landscaping will enhance the now barren site. A more tidy appearance and
more efficient traffic circulation are also featured.
Snow removal has never been a problem. There is sufficient space on the site
to stockpile plowed snow.
1
Energy Conservation
Although the proposed mixed use building is oriented east-west, solar access to
the south is completely blocked by the Concept 600 Building. State-of-the-art
heating appliances and construction techniques will be utilized to provide energy
conservation measures. Water-limitil1g plumbing fixtures are also planned to
conserve water.
Amenities
An informal pedestrian thoroughfare which has developed across this site over
the years is preserved. This site design still permits a "shortcut" between E.
Bleeker Street and E. Main Street.
Visual Impact
The proposed buildings will not infringe on designated viewplanes.
Trash Area
A screened and secure tra$h tarea is planned for the site, but its location has not
been finalized. The trash area will be c~ntrally located and sized for commercial
tenants and four dwellings.
AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC FACILITIJ;.SAND $ERVICES
Water supplyl fire protection
Existing water supplies are adequate for the proposed project. The affordable
housing units will each have a single bathroom and kitchen; and two bathrooms
are proposed for use by commercial tenants.
Fire protection is also available to the site. A fire hydrant exists within 300 ft. of
the site, and response time has been estimated at thre,e rninut~$ By eliminating
the alley encroachment, fire department access to the north side of the Concept
600 Building will be improved.
Sanitary s~wer
Sanitary sewer service to the site is adequate.
Public transportation
No significant traffic count is expected from .this minor development. Several
transportation options are currently available. The City parking garage is
nearby, as are RFTA bus routes, with easy access to City, cross-town, and
downvalley busses. The site is also within half a block of the Rio Grande bike
path.
Storm Drainage
There are no plans to alter historic drainage patterns on the site.
2
Earking
Eight off-street parking spaces are required, and provided, for the development.
Traffic and parking have traditionally been haphazard on this site. The
development eliminates vehicular through-traffic between the alley and E.
Bleeker Street, which will improve safety on the site. Rigid parking alignments
shown on the site plan should also improve vehicle circulation. Parking and
private thoroughfare surfaces will remain dust-free gravel.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
Employee Generation Mitigation for this project has been calculated at 4.24
FTEs. Three one-bedroorn apartments are proposed for the project, on the
upper floor of the mixed-use building, which would mitigate 5.25.FTEs. They are
proposed as "Category 2" rental units. Priority for occupancy will be given to
employees of the commercial tenants.
One-bedroom units were arpitrarily selected for the design, but as shown, they
are undersized by "Affordable Housing Guidelines". There is evidently some
flexibility in those standards, provided units are demonstrated to be "livable" 1 etc.
The developer is also flexible and is prepared to redesign for two one-bedroom
units, and a studio, to comply with the Guidelines. The redesign will mitigate
4.75 FTEs.

RE:
615 East Bleeker Street Growthl\1~pagement Application
Acceptance of Recommended Scoring
DATE:
February 13, 2002
SUMMARY:
Bill Murphy, owner of 615 East Bleeker Street, applied for commercial growth
management development aTlotments toacconimoclate an expansion of his
commercial building located in the City's SCI Zone District (location map attached).
The development proposal involves reconstruction of all approximately 1,000 square
foot commercial building to 1,600 square feet of net leasable space. The
reconstruction of existing commercial development requires mitigation of affordable
housing and parking as if no building existed prior to demolition.
The proposal also includes the conversion of an e:x.istil}g 1,200 square foot building
from residential storage to commercial use. 2,800 square feet of commercial
development is the total commercial square footage requiring affordable housing and
parking mitigation, although a portion of this space is reconstructed space. The
proposal includes three one-bedroom affordable housing units, mitigating in excess of
the City's requirement.
The GMQS process requires scoring by the Growth Management Commission
(GMC). Projects must .achieve minimum "thr~sholcl" ~~o:r~s in ya,ri911scategories in
order to proceed. The GMC reviewed this project and assigned a passing score to
each of the scoring criteria (scoring summary attached). The process now requires
acceptance of the scoring by both City Council and the Pitkin County Board of
County Commissioners, then granting of the allotments by City Council by adoption
of an ordinance.

615 East Bleeker Street Growth Management Scoring - Public Hearing
THRU:
FROM:
RE:
DATE:
January 15,2002
SUMMARY:
Bill Murphy, owner of 615 East Bleeker Street, has applied for commercial growth
management development allotments to accommodate an expansion of his
commercial building located in the SCI Zone District. The development proposal
involves reconstruction of an approximately 1,000 square foot commercial building to
1,600 square feet of net leasable space. The reconstruction of existing commercial
development requires mitigation of affordable housing and parking as if no building
existed prior to demolition.
The proposal also includes the conversion of an existing 1,200 square foot building
from residential storage to commercial use. 2,800 square feet of commercial
development is the total commercial square footage requiring affordable housing and
parking mitigation, although a portion of this space is reconstructed space. The
proposal includes three one-bedroom affordable housing units.
The GMQS process requires scoring by the Growth Management Commission.
Projects must achieve minimum "threshold" scores in various categories in order to
proceed. When more applications are submitted than allocations available, a
competition results and only projects receiving the highest scores may proceed. This
is the only growth management application (there is no competition) so only
threshold scores are necessary for the project to proceed.
Staff has scored the application and found it meeting the necessary scores for
approval. Staff is recommending approval.
SCORING:
Exhibit A will be used in the meeting for tabulating scores. The specific criteria are
more fully described in Exhibit A with the specific Land Use Code text. The
application also responds to each of these criteria. Following is staffs explanation for
the proposed scoring for each criteria:
Architectural Design. The plan is appropriate for the proposed uses and the
neighborhood.
Site Design. The site plan is appropriate for the types of uses and the neighborhood
Environmental Conservation. Adequate measures are proposed to satisfy this
standard.
Amenities. The plan preserves pedestrian access to the alley and appropriate amenity
considering the nature of the expected commercial uses.
Visual Impact. The plan does not interfere with any protected views
Trash and Utility Access. The applicant intends to install a enclosed trash facility
and utility providers are al satisfied with the application.
Water/Fire. Improvements being made will serve the development. The fire
Marshall is satisfied with the development plans.
Sanitation. The applicant has responded to the Sanitation District's requirements.
Public Transportation/Roads. The application proposes removal of the structure
located in the alley. This will aid access to adjacent properties and emergency service
provISIOn.
Drainage. The City Engineer is satisfied with the applicant's proposal.
Parking. The majority existing parking for the building actually occurs off-site
within the East Bleeker Street right-of-way north of the property with only a few
spaces regularly used along building A. The proposal requires 7.2 new parking
spaces. 8 spaces are shown on the parking plan submitted with the application and
staff has requested the plan be amended to accommodate additional spaces. The
applicant has indicated that additional spaces can be provided to satisfy this standard
and staff expects an amended plan to be submitted during the meeting. Based on
discussions with the applicant, staff expects the amended plan to satisfy the
requirements and has scored the application accordingly. Staff has recommended the
residential spaces be signed.
Affordable Housing. The applicant is providing more than the amount of affordable
housing required by the Land Use Code and the Housing Board has recommended
approval of the application, with conditions.
Bonus Points. Bonus points may be awarded to proposals exceeding the substantive
standards. Projects must still meet threshold scoring and bonus points are only
effective during a competition (when more applications are submitted that allocations
available). Because no competition exists, assigning bonus points is meaningless.
ApPLICANT:
George Murphy (a.k.a. Bill Murphy).

To: Development Review Committee
From: Richard Goulding, Project Engineer
Reference DRC Caseload Coordinator
Date: December 12, 2001
Re: Murphy Development GMSQ
The Development Review Committee has reviewed the Murphy GMQS at their
November 28, 2001 meeting, and has compiled the following comments:
General
1. Sufficiency of Submittal: DRC comments are based on the fact that we
assume the submitted site plan is accurate, that it shows all site features, and
that proposed development is feasible. The wording must be carried forward
exactly as written unless prior consent is received from the Engineering
Department. This is to alleviate problems and delays related to approvals tied to
"issuance of building permit."
2. R.O.W. Impacts: If there are any encroachments into the public rights-of-way,
the encroachment must either be removed or be subject to current encroachment
license requirements.
Site Review
1. Site Drainage - Requirement -.The foundation drainage system should be
separate from site storm drainage system. Rain and snow melt runoff must be
detained and routed on site. These facilities must be shown on drainage plans
and submitted for approval prior to application for building permit. The drainage
may be conveyed to existing landscaped areas if the drainage report
demonstrates that the percolation rate and the detention volume meet the design
storm
Information - The City drainage criteria needs to be implemented completely.
This includes but is not limited to erosion control, soil stabilization, and re-
vegetation in disturbed areas. Also, there needs to be an analysis of where the
drainage will flow
2. Sidewalk, Curb, and Gutter - Requirement- sidewalk, curb, and gutter must be
designed using the City of Aspen design standards which are available in the
City Engineering Department.
3. Fire Protection District - Requirement -
Fire Protection District requests the following revisions be made:
a. The entire structure should be sprinkled, but not required.

will facilitate timely processing of the Building Permits.
6. Parks - Requirement- The following requirements have been made by the
Parks Department:
a. Parks department would strongly recommend forms of onsite recycling as
well as a compactor depending the future uses of the commercial space
b. Trash storage is to be inside the building
7. Utilities:
City Water Department - Requirement - As a request of the City of Aspen
Water Department, revisions need to be made as follows:
a. All uses and construction will comply with the City of Aspen Water System
standards and with Title 25 and applicable portions of Title 8 (Water
Conservation and Plumbing Advisory Code) of the Aspen Municipal Code
b. Submit a utility plan. If there is a need for an upgrade in existing lines where
are the easements for these line intended to established
Aspen Consolidated Waste District - Requirement - The following was
provided by the Aspen Consolidated Waste District:
a. Service is contingent upon compliance with the District's rules, regulations,
and specifications, which are on file at the Districts office.
b. All clear water connections are prohibited ( roof, foundation, foundation,
perimeter, patio drains)
c. Detailed on-site utility plans require approval by ACSD when available.

Murphy Development GMSQ
i. Permanent improvements are prohibited in areas covered by sewer
easements or right of ways to the lot line of each development
j. Where additional development would produce flows that would exceed the
planned reserve capacity of the system (collection system and or treatment
system) an additional system proportionate fee will be assessed to eliminate
the downstream collection system or treatment capacity constraint. Additional
proportionate fees would be collected over time from all development in the
area of concern in order to fund the improvements needed
k. Where additional development would produce flows that would overwhelm
the planned capacity of the existing system and or treatment facility, the
development will be assessed fees to cover the.costs of replacing the entire
portion of the system that would be overwhelmed. the District would fund the
cost of construction reserve capacity in the area of concern ( only for the
material cost difference for larger line)
I. All ACSD fees must be paid prior to the issuance of a building permit
Work in the Public Right of Way

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Chris Bendon, Community Development Department
FROM:
Victoria Giannola, Housing Office
DATE:
2 January 2001
Murphy Development- GMQS Application
RE:
ISSUES:
The applicant, George Murphy, proposes to retain three buildings as well as
demolish and reconstruct an existing structure on the property for commercial
use and to include affordable housing on the property. The application proposes
three emplbyee. dwelling units, with a total occupancy of up to five and one-
quarter individuals, and a total internal floor area of 1,530 square feet, for
affordable housing located on the property.
The applicant's proposal requires a Growth Management Quota System
exemption from scoring and competition procedures. This memorandum shall
deal exclusively with the affordable, employee housing component of the
proposed application. The Housing Board reviewed this application to determine
whether the mitigation proposed meets the appropriate requirements and policies
and to make a recommendation to the City Planning and Zoning Commission.
BACKGROUND:
The property is located on East Bleeker Street with a legal description of Lot 2.
The site is zoned S/C/I. The property consists of 12,863 $quare feet with three
existing buildings and one proposed building. Following the completion of the
proposed project, the net result will be four commercial buildings and three
employee dwelling units above one of the commercial buildings. The applicant
indicates that the total net increase in square footage will be from 7,627 to
10,270 square feet.
The proposal states that an existing building that encroaches into the alley will be
demolished and replaced with a new and larger building; a building currently
under construction will be completed and converted to commercial use; and the
two existing buildings (garage/shop and commercial/residential) will remain on
the property. The application indicates that on-site parking is provided for the
commercial space, but does not indicate that parking is reserved for the
affordable housing units.
.~,
The applicant is proposing three employee single bedroom units on the second
floor. The application indicates that each of the three units will average 510
square feet in size (550, 500, and 480 square feet each). The minimum square
footage for a Category 2, one-bedroom unit is 600. The applicant anticipates
filling the units with the employees of the commercial space first.
When calculating the number of employees generated by the proposed
development, the applicant's figures do not concur with the Housing Office
calculations. The Housing Office uses the employee generation rate contained
within the City of Aspen Land Use Regulations of 2.3 employees per 1,000
square feet of commercial space in the SICII zone district in accordance with
Section 26.470.100.C.3. With 2,113 square feet of proposed new commercial
space (including the new commercial building minus the replacement square
footage, plus the completion of the building currently under construction to be
converted to commercial space, and minus the employee housing square
footage) this growth generates 4.86 new employees at the property. One
hundred percent mitigation of the employees generated by the proposal results in
the need to provide units for five full-time employees. The AspenlPitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines states that the three one-bedroom units will house
5.25 employees.
COMMERCIAL and RESIDENTIAL SQUARE FOOTAGE

TOTAL 7,627 986 4,630 3,643 2,113 10,270
In contrast, the applicant estimates that 4.24 employees will be working following
the development of the proposal and who will be accommodated in individual
units. This figure presumably does not include the square footage of the building
currently under construction (eliminating 1 ,200~quare feet). The difference
between the applicant's housing mitigation calculation and the Housing Staff's
calculation leaves a shortfall of 0.62 or one more employee for which affordable
housing must be provided. However, the applicant's proposal for three one-
bedroom units provides housing for over five employees thereby fulfilling the
housing mitigation requirement.
~
C J
DISCUSSION:
Affordable HousinQ Units:
In accordance with Section 26.470.070 of the City of Aspen Land Use
Regulations, the applicant is required to provide affordable housing for 100% of
the employees generated by the proposed commercial development.
The applicant does not indicate the Category for income, price, and square
footage requirements. The units that the applicant is providing are all to be
rented, although the applicant has not provided a rental pricing structure to
ensure that the units do not exceed the maximum monthly rental rates
established by Section 10 of the AffordCible Housing Guidelines. There is no
indication that the applicant is proposing to deed restrict all of the affordable
housing units to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority (APCHA). There is
also no indication that the applicant is proposing a mid-point Category 2 for rental
pricing of the units as required by the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing
Guidelines. The applicant is proposing that the units be rented to employees of
the commercial space.
Section 1, Priorities for Affordable Housing Units, of the Aspen/Pitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines establishes the following equal priority unit types
based on current needs:
. For-sale type units whereby the average sales price is no higher than Category 3
and the units consist of one-bedroom and two-bedroom units, with associated
RO units.
. Family oriented sales units (Category 3 and 4).
The proposed application does not meet the categories, but does meet the
number of bedrooms required for mitigation.
The APCHA Affordable Housing Guidelines establishes the preferred option to
obtain credit for providing deed-restricted affordable housing units under the
City's Growth Management Quota System as follows:
. On-Site Housing - affordable housing units located either on the same site as, or
attached to, the proposed development.
. Off-Site Housing - affordable housing units located within the Aspen Metro Area
and approved by the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority.
. Cash-in-Lieu or Land-in-Lieu - payment of an affordable housing dedication fee
or a donation of land. The preference of cash or land shall be determined on a
case-by-case basis.
In accordance with Section 1 of the Guidelines, the applicant is proposing that
the employee housing be located on-site. The applicant is also proposing that
the housing be located above grade on the second floor.
,,",,
f 'j
Section 2 of the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing Guidelines requires that
all affordable housing units meet the size, type, income, and occupancy
requirements contained in the Guidelines.
The applicant's proposal for a minimum of 510 square foot one-bedroom units
does not meet the minimum livable area of 600 square feet for a Category 1 and
2 unit and 700 square feet for a Category 3 and 4 unit.
Section 2, Affordable Housing Units Required for Mitigation, of the Aspen/Pitkin
County Affordable Housing Guidelines establishes the following provisions for an
applicant to select from for all affordable housing units required as mitigation for
residential or commercial development in order to obtain credit under the Growth
Management Quota System:
. Production of new dwelling units deed restricted in perpetuity to rental and sale
price terms as defined in the Guidelines.
. Conversion of existing dwelling units to deed restricted units.
. Payment of Land-in-lieu
In accordance with Section 2 of the Guidelines, the applicant is proposing to
construct a total of three, single bedroom units reserved as affordable housing.
This provision of units and bedrooms will house five and one quarter employees.
The applicant will be required to deed restrict the units in perpetuity to the
APCHA at the rental price terms to also meet the provisions of Section 2.
REQUIREMENT:
One hundred percent mitigation of the total number of employees generated by
staff's calculations equals 4.86 new employees. The applicant is proposing
housing for up to 5.25 employees. The applicant is proposing a total of 1,530
square feet of affordable housing. While the number of employees housed
meets the requirements of the Affordable Housing Guidelines, the size of the
affordable units proposed falls short of meeting the requirements of the
Guidelines.
RECOMMENDATION: The proposed application fails to meet the intent of Part
VII, Section 1 of the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing Guidelines
regarding categories, as well as the minimum net livable square feet and the
maximum monthly rental price rates of Section 2 as specified in Sections 8 and
10. The applicant has not proposed that all affordable housing units will be deed
restricted to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority (APCHA) nor has the
applicant proposed a category rental price. Additionally, the square footage of
the three units is less than the minimum required of the Aspen/Pitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines.
,-.,.,
&.. .. .<l
The Housing Staff recommends that the Housing Authority Board put forth a
recommendation of conditional approval based upon the submission being
subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall provide deed restricted, affordable housing for the 5.25
employees as proposed in the application.
2. The applicant shall structure a deed restriction for the units such that 1/1 oth
of 1 percent of the property is deed restricted in perpetuity to the
Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority; or the applicant may propose
any other means that the legislature determines acceptable.
3. The applicant shall structure the Categories proposed for the deed
restricted units such that an average of Category 2 prevails.
4. The applicant shall provide a rental pricing structure not to exceed the
maximum monthly rental rates.
5. The applicant has demonstrated atameeting before the Housing Authority
Board that the units are provided with other physical amenities to allow a
reduction in the minimum size of each unit per Part VII, Section 8 of the
Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing Guidelines as follows:
· Additional storage within the unit
· More windows than the City Code required
· Limit to space used for stairs and hallways
· Recreational amenity of the city park within walking distance
· Above ground location
· Achieving a higher density of deed restricted units
6. The applicant shall be permitted to limit the initial and all future rental of
the deed-restricted, affordable housing units to on-site employees of the
commercial complex provided that the employees meet the qualification
criteria contained within the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing
Guidelines. The minimum lease term shall be six months. Should no
employee of the commercial complex qualify in accordance with the
Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing Guidelines, the Housing Office
shall fill the units.
7. The deed restriction shall be filed prior to building permit approval and
shall state the following three conditions for the rental units:
a. The deed restrictions on the affordable housing units shall be in
perpetuity to the rental price terms as defined in the Aspen/Pitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines in affect at the time of Final Plan approval
of this proposed application.
f't
b. The unit rental prices shall be no greater than allowed under the
Affordable Housing Guidelines that are in affect at the time of Final Plan
Approval.
c. The Housing Office shall qualify all tenants under the Affordable
Housing Guidelines.

Re: Murphy Development GMSQ
The Development Review Committee has reviewed the Murphy GMQS at their
November 28, 2001 meeting, and has compiled the following comments:
General
1. Sufficiency of Submittal: DRC comments are based on the fact that we
assume the submitted site plan is accurate, that it shows all site features, and
that proposed development is feasible. The wording must be carried forward
exactly as written unless prior consent is received from the Engineering
Department. This is to alleviate problems and delays related to approvals tied to
"issuance of building permit."
2. R.O.W. Impacts: If there are any encroachments into the public rights-of-way,
the encroachment must either be removed or be subject to current encroachment
license requirements.
Site Review
1. Site Drainage - Requirement -.The foundation drainage system should be
separate from site storm drainage system. Rain and snow melt runoff must be
detained and routed on site. These facilities must be shown on drainage plans
and submitted for approval prior to application for building permit. The drainage
may be conveyed to existing landscaped areas if the drainage report
demonstrates that the percolation rate and the detention volume meet the design
storm
Information - The City drainage criteria needs to be implemented completely.
This includes but is not limited to erosion control, soil stabilization, and re-
vegetation in disturbed areas. Also, there needs to be an analysis of where the
drainage will flow
2. Sidewalk, Curb, and Gutter - Requirement- sidewalk, curb, and gutter must be
designed using the City of Aspen design standards which are available in the
City Engineering Department.
3. Fire Protection District - Requirement -

i. Permanent improvements are prohibited in areas covered by sewer
easements or right of ways to the lot line of each development
j. Where additional development would produce flows that would exceed the
planned reserve capacity of the system (collection system and or treatment
system) an additional system proportionate fee will be assessed to eliminate
the downstream collection system or treatment capacity constraint. Additional
proportionate fees would be collected over time from all development in the
area of concern in order to fund the improvements needed
k. Where additional development would produce flows that would overwhelm
the planned capacity of the existing system and or treatment facility, the
development will be assessed fees to cover the costs of replacing the entire
portion of the system that would be overwhelmed. the District would fund the
cost of construction reserve capacity in the area of concern ( only for the
material cost difference for larger line)
I. All ACSD fees must be paid prior to the issuance of a building permit

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Chris Bendon, Community Development Department
FROM:
Victoria Giannola, Housing Office
DATE:
2 January 2001
RE:
Murphy Development- GMQS Application
ISSUES:
The applicant, George Murphy, proposes to retain three buildings as well as
demolish and reconstruct an existing structure on the property for commercial
use and to include affordable housing on the property. The application proposes
three employee dwelling units, with a total occupancy of up to five and one-
quarter individuals, and a total' internal floor area of 1,530 square feet, for
affordable housing located on the property.
The applicant's proposal requires a Growth Management Quota System
exemption from scoring and competition procedures. This memorandum shall
deal exclusively with the affordable, employee housing component of the
proposed application. The Housing Board reviewed this application to determine
whether the mitigation proposed meets the appropriate requirements and policies
and to make a recommendation to the City Planning and Zoning Commission.
BACKGROUND:
The property is located on East Bleeker Street with a legal description of Lot 2.
The site is zoned S/C/I. The property consists of 12,863 square feet with three
existing buildings and one proposed building. Following the completion of the
proposed project, the net result will be four commercial buildings and three
employee dwelling units above one of the commercial buildings. The applicant
indicates that the total net increase in square footage will be from 7,627 to
10,270 square feet.
The proposal states that an existing building that encroaches into the alley will be
demolished and replaced with a new and larger building; a building currently
under construction will be completed and converted to commercial use; and the
two existing buildings (garage/shop and commercial/residential) will remain on
the property. The application indicates that on-site parking is provided for the
commercial space, but does not indicate that parking is reserved for the
affordable housing units.
~
The applicant is proposing three employee single bedroom units on the second
floor. The application indicates that each of the thre.e unit~willaverage 510
square feet in size (550, 500, and 480 square feet each). The minimum square
footage for a Category 2, one-bedroom unit is 600. The applicant anticipates
filling the units with the employees of the commercial space first.
When calculating the number of employees generated by the proposed
development, the applicant's figures do not concur with the Housing Office
calculations. The Housing Office uses the employee generation rate contained
within the City of Aspen Land Use Regulations of 2.3 employees per 1,000
square feet of commercial space in the S/C/I zone district in accordance with
Section 26.470.100.C.3. With 2,113 square feet of proposed new commercial
space (including the new commercial building minus the replacement square
footage, plus the completion of the building currently under construction to be
converted to commercial space, and minus the employee housing square
footage) this growth generates 4.86 new employees at the property. One
hundred percent mitigation of the employees generated by the proposal results in
the need to provide units for five full-time employees. The Aspen/Pitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines states that the three one-bedroom units will house
5.25 employees.

TOTAL 7,627 986 4,630 3,643 2,113 10,270
In contrast, the applicant estimates that 4.24 employees will be working following
the development of the proposal and who will be accommodated in individual
units. This figure presumably does not include the' square footage of the building
currently under construction (eliminating 1,200 square feet). The difference
between the applicant's housing mitigation calculation and the Housing Staffs
calculation leaves a shortfall of 0.62 or one more employee for which affordable
housing must be provided. However, the applicant's proposal for three one-
bedroom units provides housing for over five employees thereby fulfilling the
housing mitigation requirement.
....---...
~
DISCUSSION:
Affordable Housinq Units:
In accordance with Section 26.470.070 of the City of Aspen Land Use
Regulations, the applicant is required to provide affordable housing for 100% of
the employees generated by the proposed commercial development.
The applicant does not indicate the Category for income, price, and square
footage requirements. The units that the applicant is providing are all to be
rented, although the applicant has not provided a rental pricing structure to
ensure that the units do not exceed the maximum monthly rental rates
established by Section 10 of the Affordable Housing Guidelines. There is no
indication that the applicant is proposing to deed restrict all of the affordable
housing units to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority (APCHA). There is
also no indication that the applicant is proposing a mid-point Category 2 for rental
pricing of the units as required by the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing
Guidelines. The applicant is proposing that the units be rented to employees of
the commercial space.
Section 1, Priorities for Affordable Housing Units, of the Aspen/Pitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines establishes the following equal priority unit types
based on current needs:
· For-sale type units whereby the, average sales price is no higher than Category 3
and the units consist of one-bedroom and two-bedroom units, with associated
RO units.
· Family oriented sales units (Category 3 and 4).
The proposed application does not meet the categories, but does meet the
number of bedrooms required for mitigation.
The APCHA Affordable Housing Guidelines establishes the preferred option to
obtain credit for providing deed-restricted affordable housing units under the
City's Growth Management Quota System as follows:
· On-Site Housing - affordable housing units located either on the same site as, or
attached to, the proposed development.
· Off-Site Housing - affordable housing units located within the Aspen Metro Area
and approved by the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority.
· Cash-in-Lieu or Land-in-Lieu - payment of an affordable housing dedication fee
or a donation of land. The preference of cash or land shall be determined on a
case-by-case basis.
In accordance with Section 1 of the Guidelines, the applicant is proposing that
the employee housing be located on-site. The applicant is also proposing that
the housing be located above grade on the second floor.
Section 2 of the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing Guidelines requires that
all affordable housing units meet the size, type, income, and occupancy
requirements contained in the Guidelines.
The applicant's proposal for a minimum of 510 square foot one-bedroom units
does not meet the minimum livable area of 600 square feet for a Category 1 and
2 unit and 700 square feet for a Category 3 and 4 unit.
Section 2, Affordable Housing Units Required for Mitigation, of the Aspen/Pitkin
County Affordable Housing Guidelines establishes the following provisions for an
applicant to select from for all affordable housing units required as mitigation for
residential or commercial development in order to obtain credit under the Growth
Management Quota System:
. Production of new dwelling units deed restricted in perpetuity to rental and sale
price terms as defined in the Guidelines.
. Conversion of existing dwelling units to deed restricted units.
. Payment of Land-in-lieu
In accordance with Section 2 of the Guidelines, the applicant is proposing to
construct a total of three, single bedroom units reserved as affordable housing.
This provision of units and bedrooms will house five and one quarter employees.
The applicant will be required to deed restrict the units in perpetuity to the
APCHA at the rental price terms to also meet the provisions of Section 2.
REQUIREMENT:
One hundred percent mitigation of the total number of employees generated by
staff's calculations equals 4.86 new employees. The applicant is proposing
housing for up to 5.25 employees. The applicant is proposing a total of 1,530
square feet of affordable housing. While the number of employees housed
meets the requirements of the Affordable HOWiiing Guidelines, the size of the
affordable units proposed falls short of meeting the requirements of the
Guidelines.
RECOMMENDATION: The proposed application fails to meet the intent of Part
VII, Section 1 of the Aspen/Pitkin County Affordable Housing Guidelines
regarding categories, as well as the minimum net livable square feet and the
maximum monthly rental price rates of Section 2~s specified in Sections 8 and
10. The applicant has not proposed that all affordable housing units will be deed
restricted to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority (APCHA) nor has the
applicant proposed a category rental price. Additionally, the square footage of
the three units is less than the minimum required of the Aspen/Pitkin County
Affordable Housing Guidelines.
.....--.."
;---.,
The Housing Staff recommends that the Housing Authority Board put forth a
recommendation of conditional approval based upon the submission being
subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall provide deed restricted, affordable housing for the 5.25
employees as proposed in the application.
2. The applicant shall structure a deed restriction for the units such that 1/1 oth
of 1 percent of the property is deed restricted in perpetuity to the
Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority; or the applicant may propose
any other means that the legislature determines acceptable.
3. The applicant shall structure the Categories proposed for the deed
restricted units such that an average of Category 2 prevails.
4. The applicant shall provide a rental pricing structure not to exceed the
maximum monthly rental rates.
5. The applicant has demonstrated at a meeting before the Housing Authority

PROJECT OVERVIEW
There is a growing contrast betweentheSIG!ld:Z:9r1~Qi~tri~t C3mt~ldrr()Yncii[1g
areas that have experienced a "renaissanc~" inJhe past few years. The S/GII
zone has stagnated and lacks the economic vitality of the rest of Aspen.
Businesses in the SICII zone, once considered essential to the community, have
migrated out of town, and property owners in the zone district have investecj little
in their buildings. Ultimately reclamation of this zonecjistrictl1Jl,Jst9c;c;l,JI-Jhis
project is not intended to initiate any such transformation, but only to buffer the
transition.
The modest growth proposed in this application may not be the highest and best
use of the property, but it provides commercial space with reasonable rents, and
three affordable housing units. An aged and dilapidated building that
encroaches into an alley will be demolished and replaced with a new mixed-use
building. A second building, currently under construction for residential storage,
will be converted to commerciaIU$e.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Architectural Design
The expected return on investment for lea$~ple $pace in the SICII Zone is
limited. Although there may be some market del1J~nd, the rent cap is low.
Considering these economic constraints any capital expenditure in the SICII
Zone must be limited. Those same economicc;onstraints bave stymied past
interest in neighborhood rehabilitation and revitaJization. For this, project to be
economically feasible, a simple, inexpensive design is proposed. The challenge
of this project is to introduce some design integrity into a ramshackle
neighborhood, rich in character, at a rea$onable expense.
The architecture of the proposed mixed-use puilcjing will itself be a tasteful
mixture of materials that are compatible with the rather architecturally eclectic
neighborhood. The scale and height of both buildings successfullY integrates
with existing buildings in the S/C/I Zone District. Massing and siting of the
proposed buildings, relative to the, existing buildings, is intended to create a
plaza effect.
Site Design
A primary objective of this project is to improv~ the. quality and character of the
existing site. That commitment is apparent on the site plan provided.
Landscaping will enhance the now barren site. A more tidy appearance and
more efficient traffic circulation are also featured.
Snow removal has never been a problem. There is sufficient space on the site
to stockpile plowed snow.
1
.'~
f\
Energy Conservation
Although the proposed mixed use building is oriented east-west, solar access to
the south is completely blocked by the Concept 600 Building. State-of-the-art
heating appliances and construction techniques will be utilized to provide energy
conservation measures. Water-limiting plumbing fixtures are also planned to
conserve water.
Amenities
An informal pedestrian thoroughfare which has developed across this site over
the years is preserved. This site design still permits a"shortcut" between E.
Bleeker Street and E. Main Street.
Visual Impact
The proposed buildings will not infringe on designated viewplanes.
Trash Area
A screened and secure trash area is planned for the site, but its location has not
been finalized. The trash area will be centrally located and sized for commercial
tenants and four dwellings. '
AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
Water supply/ fire protection
Existing water supplies are adequate for the proposed project. The affordable
housing units will each have a single bathroom and kitchen; and two bathrooms
are proposed for use by commercial tenants.
Fire protection is also available to the site. A fire hydrant exists within 300 ft. of
the site, and response time has been estimated at three minutes By eliminating
the alley encroachment, fire department access to the north side of the Concept
600 Building will be improved.
Sanitary sewer
Sanitary sewer service to the site is adequate.
Public transportation
No significant traffic count is expected from .this minor development. Several
transportation options are currently available. The City parking garage is
nearby, as are RFTA bus routes, with easy access to City, cross-town, and
downvalley busses. The site is also within half a block of the Rio Grande bike
path.
Storm Drainage
There are no plans to alter historic drainage patterns on the site.
2
~
/.'
/i
.Earkiog /
Eight off-street parking spaces are required, and provided, for the development.
Traffic and parking have traditionally been haphazard on this site. The
development eliminates vehicular through-traffic between the alley and E.
Bleeker Street, which will improve safety on the site. Rigid parking alignments
shown on the site plan should also improve vehicle circulation. Parking and
private thoroughfare surfaces will remain dust-free gravel.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
Employee Generation Mitigation for this project has been calculated at 4.24
FTEs. Three one-bedroom apartments are proposed for the project, on the
upper floor of the mixed-use building, which would mitigate 5.25 FTEs. They are
proposed as "Category 2" rental units. Priority for occupancy will be given to
employees of the commercial tenants.
One-bedroom units were arbitrarily selected for the design, but as shown, they
are undersized by "Affordable Housing Guidelines". There is evidently some
flexibility in those standards, provided units are demonstrated to be "livable", etc.
The developer is also flexible and is prepared to redesign for two one-bedroom
units, and a studio, to comply with the Guidelines. The redesign will mitigate
4.75 FTEs. '
