STAFF AND COMMITTEE COMMENTS
Roxanne: We have a threatened resource 332 W. Smuggler that is not
on the inventory. It is a two story log cabin post war camp hale.
Jean Siegel called and said it was available to be moved.
EXTENSION OF PITKIN COUNTY COURTHOUSE TEMPORARY ELEVATOR
Roxanne: This is a two part application. The HPC approved a
temporary lift that is on the west elevation of the courthouse.
We gave them one year to get their financial act together so that
they could do the elevator correctly on the interior. That one
year deadline is past and they are asking for an extension. I am
recommending an extension for another year as they have the money
in reserve.
Tom Newland, County Representative: We had $80,000 budgeted from
this year and I am asking for another $100,000. We are half way
through the budget process so it looks very good. We would like
to start construction as early as January first.
Roxanne:
pole.
The second part of this is the relocation of the flag
Linda: The flag pole was put up in 1976, the Centennial of
Colorado.
Roxanne: Everyone remembers the flagpole being on the ground in
front of the building to the left. If we cannot document that it
is original or that it is not reversible I do not have a problem
with it. If it is a safety issue we should at least acknowledge
it and perhaps allow them to relocate it.
Tom: I would like you to OK this and then I would come back with
various alternatives. Out front again would work or possibly
beside the Vietnam Memorial. Possibly also bringing it from the
cupola to the roof.
Bill: Make an application where you feel it should be located and
then the Board will review it.
MOTION: Roger made the motion that HPC grant a one year extension
of the deadline for the temporary lift of the courthouse; second
by Donnelley. All liln favor, motion carris.

Minutes of November 11, 1992
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Sven Alstrom: I would like to be added to the agenda to discuss
a pre-application for 531 E. Cooper.
MOTION: Linda made the motion to add the pre-application for Le
Chef's awning to the agenda; second by Roger. All in favor, motion
carries.
Sven: This will be an application on open space and growth
management because it is an increase in net leasable area. What
are the committee's feeling on fabric vs plastic. The back porch
has a roof and it was suggested that we do some brick columns and
infill that area with glass or plastic so you could see into the
courtyard.
Bill: How high is the fence?
Sven: Six feet. We would construct a fence that would be
compatible with the building and then an awning. It would be a
sloping roof to the alley. This would be year round use and that
is why we are going through growth management.
Roxanne: Is this something that the Board would even consider?
It is a national registered building also.
Sven: My inclination is that we present it as a fence that is
screening the patio. Doe the board want to see an awning or what?
Don: The awning is the best way to go.
Sven: The applicant will have to pay a fee to the Planning Office
for an increase in net usable.
Bill: You would need a design that looks like it is temporary.
MOTIONs Linda made the motion to adjourn; second by Roger.
in favor, motion carries.
