"PUD Insubstantial Amendments". We are requesting that what was approved in the PUD as three 3 bedroom units along the south side of the Grand Aspen (located on second and third levels of the building — see attached graphic) be changed in to one 4 bedroom unit and one 3 bedroom unit. The net result would be we would go from nine total bedrooms with nine total keys to seven total bedrooms with seven total keys. Our principal reason for this requested change is generally market driven as we have found a larger pool of buyers looking for units sized to accommodate families with children than anticipated. We believe that this request may be authorized by the Community Development Director as a PUD Insubstantial Amendment because it meets or exceeds criteria defined in 26.445.100 A. - addressed below: 26.445.100 A.

RETAIN FOR PERMANENT RECORD MEMORANDUM TO: Joyce Allgaier, Interim Community Development Director FROM: Christopher Lee, Planner RE: Aspen Mountain PUD Insubstantial Amendment DATE: October 14, 2004 '?or ck� To A '1—Im- I; - to _ 1-n . ooa SUMMARY: Four Peaks Development is applying for an insubstantial PUD amendment to be applied to the Hyatt Grand Aspen development (400 block of Dean Street). Specifically, the Applicant is requesting that the three (3), three -bedroom units on the second and third levels of the south side of the building be changed into one three (3) bedroom unit and one four (4) bedroom unit (floor plan attached as Exhibit "B"). The applicant states that this application is being pursued primarily due to a higher demand for units that can accommodate families than was initially expected. APPLICANT: Four Peaks Development — Scott Writer LOCATION: 400 block of Dean Street ZONING: PUD REVIEW PROCEDURE: The Community Development Director, pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100, Planned Unit Developments, may approve insubstantial amendments to an approved PUD. STAFF COMMENTS: Staff believes that this request is in keeping with the overall PUD concept approved for this property. It doesn't change the foot print of the development and instead of altering the PUD development concept, it actually allows for more diversity of unit types to better meet demand. It will still function as a fractional ownership system with rental options. In reviewing the Applicant's request, Staff feels that the application meets the requirements for approving an insubstantial amendment to an approved PUD. (see Exhibit A) RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Community Development Director approve this Insubstantial PUD Amendment to allow for the proposed unit changes of the Hyatt Grand Aspen on Lot 5 of the 400 block of Dean Street from three (3) three -bedroom units to one (1) four - bedroom unit and (1) three -bedroom unit. APPROVAL: I hereby approve this Insubstantial Amendment to the Hyatt Grand Aspen/PUD allowing for a reconfiguration of the South side of the structure on the 400 block of Dean Street from three (3) three -bedroom units to one (1) four -bedroom unit and (1) three -bedroom unit, with the following condition: That the applicant, within thirty (30) days of this approval and at his own expense, arrange with the City Clerk for this approval document and accompanying exhibits to be placed in the records of the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder. 1 2- } J �-- Joyce X11gaier, InteriW Community Development Director Date ATTACHMENTS: Exhibit A -- Review Criteria and Staff Findings Exhibit B -- Floor Plan with units to be changed PA 0 • Insubstantial PUD Amendment. Exhibit A Review Criteria & Staff Findings An insubstantial amendment to an approved development order for a final development plan may be authorized by the Community Development Director if the following review standards are met. 1. A change in the use or character of the development. Staff Finding: The development will still function as a fractional ownership with rental options. Staff finds that there will be no change in the use or character of the development. 2. An increase by greater than three (3) percent in the overall coverage of structures on the land. Staff Finding: The change in unit layout is contained within the build foot print as approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this proposal. 3. Any amendment that substantially increases trip generation rates of the proposed development, or the demand for public facilities. Staff Finding: Trip generation should not be increased. There may actually be a minimal decrease due to the reduction of units from three (3) to two (2) and rooms from (9) nine to (7) seven keys. 4. A reduction by greater than three (3) percent of the approved open space. Staff Finding: There will be no reduction of open space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this proposal. S. A reduction by greater ihan one(]) percent of the off-street parking and loading space. Staff Finding: There will be no changes to parking and loading space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this proposal. 6. A reduction in required pavement widths or rights -of -way for streets and easements. Staff Finding: The Applicant is not proposing changes to right-of-way widths. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this proposal. 7. An increase of greater than two (2) percent in the approved gross leasable floor area of commercial buildings. Staff Finding: There will be no change. 8. An increase by greater than one(1) percent in the approved residential density of the development. Staff Finding: Residential density of the development won't increase; it will actually be slightly reduced. 9. Any change which is inconsistent with a condition or representation of the project's original approval or which requires granting a further variation from the project's approved use or dimensional requirements. Staff Finding: Staff believes that this reconfiguration of interior space isn't significant enough to require a variance and that it is not inconsistent with a condition or representation of the original approval. The change actually allows the development to meet a more varied demand and clientele. As such, Staff finds this criterion to be met.
