RESOLUTION NO. 26, SERIES OF 2001
WHEREAS, the applicant, Mark Tye, represented by Jerome Hatem and Jeffrey Halferty
Design, has requested final development approval for 935 E. Cooper Avenue, Lots H and
I, Block 118, East Aspen Addition to the City and Townsite of Aspen, Colorado. The
building is listed on the "Inventory of Historic Sites and Structures;" 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 26.415.010.B.4 of the Aspen Land Use Code in order for HPC to grant approval,
namely:
Standard: The proposed development is compatible in general design, massing
and volume, scale and site plan with designated historic structures located on the
parcel and with development on adjacent parcels when the subject site is in a "H,"
Historic Overlay District or is adjacent to an Historic Landmark. For Historic
Landmarks where proposed 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 Inflll 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 Guthrie, in her staff report dated June 13, 2001, performed an analysis
of the application based on the standards, and recommended approval of the application
with conditions; and
WHEREAS, at their regular meeting on June 13, 2001, the Historic Preservation
Commission considered the application, found the application to meet the standards, and
to be consistent with the "City of Aspen Historic Preservation Design Guidelines" and
approved the application, with conditions, by a vote of 4 to 0.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
