RESOLUTION OF THE ASPEN PLANNING AND
ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDING A PROPOSED
AMENDMENT TO THE ASPEN MUNICIPAL CODE
WHEREAS, the Commission has considered a proposed amend-
ment to the Aspen Municipal Code such as to restrict short term
rentals of multi-family units within certain zone districts in
the City, and
WHEREAS, the Commission, after appropriate notice, has
conducted a public hearing on the proposed change, is ready to make
its recommendations with respect thereto, and wishes to enjoy the
interim benefits of Section 24-11.7 of the municipal code and must,
to do so, incorporate its recommendations for approval to the City
Council in resolution form,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE ASPEN PLANNING
AND ZONING COMMISSION:
1. That it does hereby find and determine that the
intents and purposes of the R/MF, O, and C-1 districts to provide
residential housing is being undermined by the condominiumization
of, and short term rental of, multi-family units within these
districts; and that the purposes of these zone districts can be
accomplished only by restricting the short term rental of units
within these zone districts.
2. That, consequently, the Commission does recommend to
the Aspen City Council the adoption of an amendment to the supple-
mentary regulations of the Aspen Municipal Code which would provide
that, from and after the effective date of such amendment:
a. No multi-family unit within the R/MY, O
and C-1 district shall be leased for any period
of less than six (6) successive months; or, in the
alternative, be leased not more than twice for
short-term periods within any calendar year (in
addition to occupancy by the owners or any

lessee for a six-month lease term).
b. The provisions of this amendment shall apply
only to units constructed after the effective date
of such an amendment, or the condominiumization of
existing units after that date.
c. The provisions hereof shall not apply to
single family or duplex structures within these dis-
tricts; nor apply to multi-family units in existence
at its effective date (unless condominiumization
of these units is proposed).
d. In the event that any existing multi-family
unit within the above-described zone districts
shall be purchased by several owners on a time
sharing basis, such arranged time sharing for
multiple use (as required by Sec. 20-3(s)) shall be
deemed to constitute a subdivision and (for purposes
of this amendment) condominiumization of the unit
making the above-described leasing limitations
applicable.
