WHEREAS, the applicant, Bogaert Family Trust requested Minor Development approval
for alterations to walkways, decks, and lighting for the property located at 623/625 E.
Hopkins Avenue, Lots F and G, Block 99, City and Townsite of Aspen, Colorado; and
WHEREAS, Section 26.415.070 of the Aspen Municipal Code states that no building or
structure shall be erected, constructed, enlarged, altered, repaired, relocated or improved
involving a designated historic property or district until plans or sufficient information
have been submitted to the Community Development Director and approved in
accordance with the procedures established for their review. An application for a building
permit cannot be submitted without a Development Order; and
WHEREAS, the procedure for a Minor Development Review is as follows. Staff
reviews the submittal materials and prepares a report that analyzes the project's
conformance with the design guidelines and other applicable Land Use Code Sections.
This report is transmitted to the HPC with relevant information on the proposed project
and a recommendation to continue, approve, disapprove or approve with conditions and
the reasons for the recommendation. The HPC reviews the application, the staff analysis
report and the evidence presented at the hearing to determine the project's conformance
with the City of Aspen Historic Preservation Design Guidelines. The HPC may approve,
disapprove, approve with conditions, or continue the application to obtain additional
information necessary to make a decision to approve or deny; and
WHEREAS, Amy Guthrie, in her staff report dated September 24, 2003 performed an
analysis of the application based on the standards, and recommended the application be
approved with conditions; and
WHEREAS, at a regular meeting held on September 24, 2003, the Historic Preservation
Commission considered the application after a duly noticed, public hearing, took
testimony, and found the application as proposed did not meet the pertinent standards.
The property owner declined to accept an approval with conditions for restudy, therefore
the application was denied by a vote of 3 to 3.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
That HPC hereby denies Minor Development for 623/635 E. Hopkins Avenue, Lots F and
G Block 99.
APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION at its regular meeting on the 24th day of
