WHEREAS, the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority (APCHA)

adding kitchens to the units; and
WHEREAS, the proposal includes converting 8-10 parking spaces

determined that the conversion of the lodge and office space to
residential use will result in a decrease in employee generation

available for the change in use since the 1989 conditional use
approval; and
WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the
proposal and the Planning office comments at a regular meeting on
April 6, 1993, found that it complies with the criteria established
for GMQS Exemption for change in use, and voted 6-0 to approve the

hereby approves the Truscott Place GMQS Exemption to change the
use of 50 lodge units into studio affordable housing units by
adding kitchens and to change the use of 1,375 square feet of
office space to a 1,100 square foot two bedroom affordable housing
unit and a 275 square foot manager's office. The following
condition shall apply to this approval:

Commission.
APPROVED by the Commission at its regular meeting on April 6,
