MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Mary Lackner, Planner
RE: Volk Conditional Use for an Attached Accessory Dwelling
Unit - Public Hearing
DATE: May 17, 1994
SUMMARY: The Planning Office recommends approval of the Volk
Conditional Use for an approximately 525 sq.ft. attached accessory
dwelling unit with conditions.
APPLICANT: Richard W. Volk, represented by Sunny Vann.
LOCATION: Lot 2, Volk Lot Split, 730 Bay Street.
ZONING: R-30 Low -Density Residential.
APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant requests Conditional Use
approval to build an accessory dwelling unit within a new residence
pursuant to the accessory dwelling unit housing mitigation
requirement from the Volk Lot Split approval. The site is
currently vacant. The one bedroom accessory dwelling unit will
be approximately 525 sq.ft. and will be located above the attached
garage. Please refer to application information, Exhibit "A".
REFERRAL COMMENTS: Comments from the Engineering Department are
included as Exhibit "B" and Housing Authority comments Exhibit "C" ,
which are attached to this memorandum.
STAFF COMMENTS: The Commission has the authority to review and
approve development applications for conditional uses pursuant to
the standards of Section 7-304:
A. The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals,
objectives and standards of the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan,
and with the intent of the zone district in which it is
proposed to be located; and
Response: The proposed dwelling unit has the potential to house
local employees, which is in compliance with the Aspen Area
Community Plan and the underlying zone district.
B. The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the
character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for
development and surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture
of complimentary uses and activities in the immediate vicinity
of the parcel proposed for development; and
Response: The accessory dwelling unit is compatible with the
character of the surrounding neighborhood, which consists of low
density single family residences. The unit will not be visible as
a distinct unit from the exterior of the residence or garage.
C. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of
the proposed conditional use minimizes adverse effects,
including visual impacts, impacts on pedestrian and vehicular
circulation, parking,, trash, service delivery, noise,
vibrations and odor on surrounding properties; and
Response: The accessory dwelling unit will be completely contained
within the proposed residence. Two parking spaces are provided on -
site within a garage. No parking is required to be provided for
the one bedroom accessory dwelling unit. Since there is no street
parking in this neighborhood, staff recommends that an on -site
parking space be provided for this unit. The proposed ADU will
have an exterior stairway which will access the entrance.
City Engineer, Chuck Roth has indicated that the applicant will
need to comply with specific requirements at the time a building
permit is applied for. The comments mentioned by Mr. Roth have
been made conditions of approval.
As per past P&Z concerns, a recommended condition of approval
requires that the unit be identified on building permit plans as
a separate dwelling unit requiring compliance with U.B.C. Chapter
35 for sound attenuation. The applicant has proposed a roof design
that will shed snow away from the ADUIs entrance. No significant
impacts are anticipated.
D. There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the
conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable
water, sewer, solid waste, parks, police, fire protection,
emergency medical services, hospital and medical services,,
drainage systems, and schools; and
Response: All public utilities are adequate and in place
throughout the neighborhood and for the proposed residence and ADU.
E. The applicant commits to supply affordable housing to meet the
incremental need for increased employees generated by the
conditional use; and
Response: The proposed ADU will satisfy the requirements of
providing an accessory dwelling unit in conjunction with. the Volk
Lot Split approval. The applicant must file the appropriate deed
restrictions for resident occupancy, including a six month minimum
lease. Proof of recordation must be forwarded to the Planning
Office prior to issuance of any building permits.
F. The proposed conditional use complies with all additional
standards imposed on it by the Aspen Area Community Plan and
2 1--
by all other applicable requirements of this chapter.
Response: This use complies with the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan
and all other applicable conditional use standards.
NOTE: As this accessory dwelling unit is 100% above grade, the
development is eligible for a floor area bonus per Ordinance 1.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Planning staff recommends approval of the
Volk Conditional Use for a 525 sq.ft. one bedroom accessory
dwelling unit subject to the following conditions:
1. The owner shall submit appropriate deed restrictions to the
Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority for approval. The
accessory dwelling unit shall be deed restricted to resident
occupancy with a minimum six month lease. Upon approval by
the Housing Authority, the Owner shall record the deed
restriction with the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder's
Office.
2. Prior to issuance of any building permits, a copy of the
recorded deed restriction for the accessory dwelling unit must
be forwarded to the Planning Office.
3. The accessory dwelling unit shall be clearly identified as a
separate dwelling unit on building permit plans and shall
comply with U.B.C. Chapter 35 sound attenuation requirements.
4. During building permit plan review, the Zoning Enforcement
Officer shall make the final determination that the unit meets
the minimum size requirement of 300 sq.ft. net liveable as
defined in the Housing Authority Guidelines. The accessory
dwelling unit cannot be less than 300 sq.ft.
5. The applicant shall comply with the recommendations made by
the Engineering Department in the referral memorandum dated
April 29, 1994, prior to issuance of a building permit.
6. All material representations made by the applicant in the
application and during public meetings with the Planning and
Zoning Commission shall be adhered to and considered
conditions of approval, unless otherwise amended by other
conditions.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to approve the Conditional Use for a.
525 sq.ft. attached accessory dwelling unit for the Lot 2 of the
Volk Lot Split at 730 Bay Street with the conditions recommended
in the Planning Office memo dated May 17, 1994."

Aspen, Colorado 81611
Re: Volk Conditional Use Review
Dear Leslie:
Please consider this letter an application for conditional use review for an accessory
dwelling unit (see Pre -Application Conference Summary attached hereto as Exhibit 1).
The unit will be located within a new single-family residence which is to be constructed
at 730 Bay Street in the City of Aspen. A growth management quota system (GMQS)
exemption for the proposed unit is also requested. The application is submitted by
Richard W. Volk, the owner of the property (see Exhibit 2, Special Warranty Deed).
Permission for Vann Associates to represent the Applicant is attached as Exhibit 3.
Project Site
The Applicant's property is described as Lot 2 of the Volk Lot Split (see accompanying
Amended and Restated Final Plat of Volk Lot Split). The lot is zoned R-30, Low -
Density Residential, mandatory Planned Unit Development, and contains approximately
thirty-seven thousand (37,000) square feet of land area. The lot's topography consists
of a large flat bench with an area of steeply sloping hillside located in the northeast
corner of the property. Natural vegetation consists of various shrubs and field grasses
and several mature cottonwoods which are located on the fringes of the lot. Existing
utility service to the property includes water, sewer, natural gas, electric and telephone.
Background
The Volk Lot Split was approved by the City Council on June 26, 1989. Vested rights
status was granted to the project via Ordinance No. 43 on August 14, 1989. The specific
Council approvals included subdivision, planned unit development, and a GMQS
exemption. Stream margin review approval was granted by the Planning and Zoning
Commission on May 30, 1989. The Planning Office's case summary outlines the various
conditions of the approvals and is attached as Exhibit 4.

Ms. Leslie Lamont
April 1, 1994
Page 2
An insubstantial amendment to the Volk Lot Split final plat was approved by the
Planning Director on September 26, 1991 (see Exhibit 5). The purpose of the
amendment was to revise the access to the two lots and to modify the previously
approved building envelopes. Lot 2's revised building envelope is depicted on the
Amended and Restated Final Plat which accompanies this application.
Proposed Development
Pursuant to Section 7-1003.A.2.b. of the Aspen Land Use Regulations, an accessory
dwelling unit must be provided in connection with the development of Lot 2. This
requirement is memorialized as condition #13.a. of the City Council's June 26, 1989, lot
split approval. To meet this requirement, the Applicant proposes to incorporate an
accessory dwelling unit within the new single-family structure which is to be constructed
on the property.
As the accompanying architectural drawings illustrate, the proposed accessory dwelling
unit will be located above the new residence's attached garage. The one (1) bedroom,
one (1) bath unit will contain five hundred and twenty-eight (528) square feet of net
livable area. Access to the unit will be limited to an exterior stair which is to be located
on the north side of the garage. A large deck will be provided adjacent to the entry to
enhance the unit's livability. A second deck will be located above the garage entrance
and accessed from the unit's living area. While no parking is specifically required for the
proposed unit, adequate area exists at the rear of the residence to accommodate a
tenant's vehicle in the event required.
Review Requirements
The proposed accessory dwelling unit is subject to the receipt of conditional use approval
and an exemption from the City's growth management quota system. The unit must also
comply with the accessory dwelling unit provisions of the Land Use Regulations and the
dimensional requirements of the underlying zone district. Each of these review
requirements is discussed below.
1. Conditional Use Review
An accessory dwelling unit is a conditional use in the R-30 zone district. As a
result, such units are subject to the review and approval of the Planning and Zoning
Commission. The specific review criteria for conditional uses are contained in Section
7-304 of the Regulations. The proposed unit's compliance with these criteria is
summarized as follows.
a) "The conditional use is consistent with the purposes, goals,
objectives and standards of the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan, and with the intent
of the Zone District in which it is proposed to be located."
Ms. Leslie Lamont
April 1, 1994
Page 3
The proposed accessory dwelling unit has been designed to comply with
the requirements of Section 5-508.A. of the Regulations. The unit will contain five
hundred and twenty-eight (528) square feet of net livable area, is located within the
proposed single-family structure, and will be deed restricted pursuant to the Housing
Authority's "Resident Occupancy" guidelines. The proposed accessory unit is consistent
with the purpose of the R-30 zone district and with the City's policy of encouraging the
development of such units in its residential neighborhoods.
b) "The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the
character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and
surrounding land uses, or enhances the mixture of complimentary uses and activities
in the vicinity of the parcel proposed for development."
The area immediately surrounding the project site is devoted entirely to
residential use. The inclusion of an accessory dwelling unit within the proposed single-
family residence is a desirable compliment to free market residential development and,
as discussed above, consistent with current community goals and objectives.
c) "The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the
proposed conditional use minimizes adverse effects, including visual impacts, impacts
on pedestrian and vehicular circulation, parking, trash, service delivery, noise,
vibrations and odor on surrounding properties."
The inclusion of an accessory dwelling unit within the proposed single-
family residence will have no adverse effect upon surrounding properties. As the
accessory unit will be located above the residence's garage, no additional visual impact
will occur. The proposed residence and accessory dwelling unit will appear as a single-
family structure. Parking for the unit can be provided on -site if necessary, and no signifi-
cant impact is anticipated on the existing road system.
d) "There are adequate public facilities and services to serve the
conditional use including but not limited to roads, potable water, sewer, solid waste,
parks, police, fire protection, emergency medical services, hospital and medical services,
drainage systems, and schools."
All utilities and the public road system are adequate to serve the proposed
conditional use. Given the limited nature of the use, no adverse impact on such public
facilities as hospitals, schools, etc. is anticipated.
e) "The Applicants commit to supply affordable housing to meet the
incremental need for increased employees generated by the condition use."
As the conditional use in question is an accessory dwelling unit, this review
criteria does not apply.
Ms. Leslie Lamont
April 1, 1994
Page 4
f) "The proposed conditional use complies with all additional
standards imposed on it by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and by all other
applicable requirements of this chapter."
As discussed under criteria #1 above, the proposed conditional use is
consistent with the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan, the purpose of the underlying zone
district, and the specific standards which govern such uses. The structure in which the
accessory use is located has been designed in compliance with all applicable dimensional
requirements of the R-30 Zone District. The Applicant is aware of no other standards
or review requirements which pertain to the development of the proposed unit.
2. Growth Management Quota System Exemption
Pursuant to Section 8-104.B.1.d., the Planning and Zoning Commission may
exempt from the City's GMQS regulations one (1) accessory dwelling unit located on a
parcel containing a single-family structure. As there are no specific exemption review
criteria, compliance with the accessory dwelling unit provisions of Section 5-508.A., and
the receipt of conditional use approval, should be sufficient to warrant approval of the
requested GMQS exemption.
Should you have any questions, or require additional information, please do not hesitate
to call.
Yours truly,

RE: Insubstantial Amendment to the Volk Lot Split Plat
SU HARY: The applicant seeks to amend the Volk Lot Split Final
Plan for lots 1 and 2 Volk Lot Split to revise the approved access
easement, building envelopes, and Spring Street right-of-way
dedication.
APPLICANT: Richard Volk and Eugene Seymour as represented by Sunny
Vann
LOCATION: Lots 1 & 2, Volk Lot Split, Oklahoma Flats
ZONING: R-301 PUD
PROPOSAL: The Volk Lot Split was approved by City Council in 1989.
The final plat included a 30 foot access and utility easement
across the rear of Lot 1. A 20 foot area of Lot 1 adjacent to
Spring Street and a 24 foot area adjacent to Bay Street were
dedicated to the City for future roads improvements to widen the
existing streets: Although not required for a Lot Split the
applicant identified specific building envelopes for each lot.
A single family residence and detached accessory dwelling unit was
recently built north of Lot 1. The home owners, the Hamiltons,
received permission to from the City to improve a portion of the
Francis Street public right-of-way for access to their home. The
right -or -way is unimproved with the exception of the Hamilton's
driveway. With that improvement Mr. Volk and Mr. Seymour now wish
to utilize the partially improved Francis Street right-of-way for
access to Lots 1 and 2 of the Volk Lot Split. Use of Francis
Street would enable the elimination of the access easement with the
exception of a small portion that will be retained to avoid cutting
down several large cottonwoods that serve as a visual buffer
between the Hamiltons and Lot 2-of the Volk Lot Split.
REFERRAL COMMENTS: Having reviewed the above and made a site
visit, the Engineering Department has the following comments:
1. We have no problem with a reduction in size of the access
easement to Lot 2. However, width and length dimensions -for the
different width segments of the easement need to be shown on the
plat. Francis Street right-of-way needs to be shown and given a
width dimension so it can be shown that the total width of this
right-of-way and easement combined will equal at least 20 feet.
2. The proposed revisions to building envelopes on Lots 1 and 2 are
acceptable also.
3. The 5 foot encroachment into the reserved Spring Street right-
of-way needs to be shown on the plat. The existing improvements
need to be shown on the plat, however. The applicant needs to
understand that at any time in the future that the City needs to
utilize this right-of-way dedication reservation, he will have
either get a licence for or move this encroachment.
4. Bay Street needs to be given a width dimension and the end of
the right -of -way needs to be shown if it ends at or before the end
of Lot 2.
5. Construction in public right-of-way requires a separate permit
from a building permit. This permit is issued by the Streets
Department. For approvals of design details in the public right-
of-way, contact the Engineering Department.
6. A blueprint of the plat needs to be submitted to the Engineering
Department for approval before the final plat is submitted.
STAFF REVIEW: Pursuant to Section 24-7-1006, an insubstantial
amendment to an approved plat may be authorized by the Planning
Director provided it is a minor change to a plat which the Planning
Director f inds.has no effect on the conditions and representation
limiting the approved plat.
Pursuant to Section 24-7-908 A., an insubstantial amendment to an
approved planned unit development may also be approved by the
Planning Director. These two parcels have a mandatory PUD overlay
and the original lot split application was also considered within
a minor PUD context.
FINDINGS: The adjustment to the easement .is being requested in
order to utilize the new Francis Street right-of-way. But as
requested, by the Engineering Department, the total width for
access will remain 20 feet. Although an access easement is
deducted for floor area purposes from buildable lot area use of
Francis Street will negate that deduction thus more lot area, for
floor area purposes, is available for Lot 1. However the total
floor area will not exceed the allowable floor area for the R-30
Zone District.
The adjustment to the Lot 1 building envelope is .necessary because
the existing single-family home is being preserved for accessory
dwelling unit purposes. The plat shall be amended to illustrate
the 5 foot encroachment of the existing home into the dedicated
public right-of-way easement. The easement was granted during the
lot split review and was requested for the occasion that the street
would ever need to be improved. If for some reason the City needs
2
to use the easement the property owner would need to move the
encroachment or obtain an encroachment licence.
Setback variations available with a PUD review were employed for
establishing the building envelop of Lot 2. Amending the building
envelope for Lot 2 does not compromise the original approval for
that particular building envelope.
RECONNENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the insubstantial
plat amendment for Lots 1 & 2 Volk Lot Split, Oklahoma Flats, Aspen
with the following conditions:
1) Prior to recording the amended subdivision plat in the office
of the Pitkin County clerk and recorder, the Engineering Department
shall review and approve the plat; and
2) The plat shall be recorded within 180 days of approval by the
Planning Director and Engineering Department.
3) However, width and length dimensions for the different width
segments of the easement (on Lot 1) need to be shown on the plat.
Francis Street right-of-way needs to be shown and given a width
dimension so it can be shown that the total width of this right-
of-way and easement combined will equal at least 20 feet.
4) The 5 foot encroachment into the reserved Spring Street right-
of-way needs to be shown on the plat. The existing improvements
need to be shown on the plat, however. The applicant needs to
understand that .at any time in the future that the City needs to
utilize this right-of-way dedication reservation, he will have
either get a licence for or move this encroachment.
5) Bay Street needs to be given a width dimension and the end of
the right-of-way needs to be shown if it ends at or before the end
of Lot 2.
6) Construction in public right-of-way requires a separate permit
from a building permit. This permit is issued by the Streets
Department. For approvals of design details in the public right-
of-way, contact the Engineering Department.
I hereby approve the. insubstantial
subdivision plat amendment for Lots 1 &
2 Volk Lot Split, Oklahoma Flats, Aspen
pursuant to Section 2'4-7-1006 and 24-7-
908 A. of the Municipal Code with the

MEMORANDUM
To: Mary Lackner, Planning Office
From: Chuck Roth, Engineering Department 0`1c
Date: April 29, 1994
Re: Volk Conditional Use for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)
Having reviewed the above referenced application, and having made a site inspection, the
Engineering Department has the following comments:
1. Sidewalk. Curb & Gutter - Section 19-98 requires construction of sidewalk, curb and
gutter for new construction. The "Pedestrian Walkway and Bikeway System Plan" does not
identify the Oklahoma Flats area, and it is doubtful that sidewalks will ever be required
in the area. Construction of curb and gutter should only be done in conjunction with
comprehensive designs of larger areas to account for storm runoff drainage and for
elevation needs. Therefore, it is recommended that the applicant only be required to sign
a sidewalk, curb and gutter improvement agreement prior to issuance of a building permit.
2. On -site Parking - On -site parking is not required for an ADU. However because there
is no parking on the street, it is recommended that an on -site parking space be required
for the ADU in this instance.
3. Driveways - Section 19-101 of the Code only permits one driveway to a residence.
Section 19-102 provides for variations from 19-101. Given the low traffic volumes in the
area, the Engineering Department will permit the second driveway.
4. Francis Street Access - The City and the County have worked with an adjacent
property owner, Doug Allen, concerning his access to a parcel that he owns. He was
denied permission to access from Gibson Avenue because of the trail crossing and the high
traffic volumes on Gibson. His parcel has legal access on Francis Street adjacent to the
applicant's property. However there is a large cottonwood tree in the middle of the
narrow, 15 foot wide Francis Street right-of-way.
As can be seen from the Volk Lot Split plats, the City was concerned about right-
of-way widths adjacent to the Volk property. A substantial area adjacent to both Spring
and Bay Streets was "reserved for dedication" at such time in the future as the City might
need to widen the rights -of -way. It is not clear why a right-of-way dedication or
a`�
reservation to widen Francis Street was not required. It would appear from the access
easement that was provided to Lot 2 that the City was unaware that there was a
developable lot beyond the Volk property on Francis Street.
The large cottonwood tree located in the Francis Street right-of-way would need to
be removed in order for Doug Allen to obtain access to his parcel. It would appear to
be preferable to widen the Francis Street right-of-way at this time or to obtain an access
easement from Lot 2 to accommodate Doug Allen's access needs as opposed to providing
permission to remove the cottonwood tree. A 20 foot wide access right-of-way or
easement is the desirable minimum width. This would only result in an additional 300
square feet of right-of-way dedication, but it would be acceptable to reduce the other
reservation for dedication area by 300 square feet if necessary.
5. Utilities - Any new surface utility needs for pedestals or other facilities must be
installed on an easement provided by the applicant and not in the public right-of-way.
6. Trash Storage Areas - The final building permit plans should indicate the trash storage
area, which may not be in the public right-of-way. All trash storage areas should be
indicated as trash and recycle areas. Any trash and recycle areas that include utility
meters or other utility facilities must provide that such facilities not be blocked by trash
and recycle containers.
7. Work in the Public Right-of-way - Given the continuous problems of unapproved work
and development in public rights -of -way adjacent to private properties, we advise the
applicant as follows:
The applicant shall consult city engineering (920-5080) for design
considerations of development within public rights -of -way, parks department
(920-5120) for vegetation species, and shall obtain permits for any work or
development, including landscaping, within public rights -of -way from city streets
department (920-5130).
Work in the public right-of-way includes landscaping and driveways.

RE: Volk Conditional Use Review for an Accessory Dwelling
Unit
Parcel ID No. 2737-073-73-002
The Housing Office recommends approval for the requested accessory
dwelling unit based on the following conditions:
Accessory dwelling units shall contain not less than three hundred (300) square feet of allowable floor
area and not more than seven hundred (700) square feet of allowable floor area. The unit shall be
deed restricted, meeting the housing authority's guidelines for resident occupied units and shall be
limited to rental periods of not less than six (6) months in duration. Owners of the principal residence
shall have the right to place a qualified employee or employees of his or her choosing in the
accessory dwelling unit.
The applicant states that the unit is to be 528 square feet of net
liveable area, located above the new principal residence's attached
garage, and have access to the unit to an exterior stair which is
to be located on the north side of the garage.
The kitchen must be built to the following specifications:
"chen must contain a minimum of a two -burner stove with oven, standard sink, and a 6-cubic foot
refrigerator plus freezer.
In reviewing the floor plans, this unit is a good example of what
an accessory dwelling unit should resemble. The kitchen is a nice
size, it has a full bath, and is an above -grade unit with lots of
light.
Before the applicant can receive building permit approval, the
applicant must provide to the Housing office actual floor plans of
the proposed accessory dwelling unit and a signed and recorded Deed
Restriction, which can be obtained from the Housing Office. The
Housing Office must have the recorded book and page number prior to
building permit approval.

RE: Application for Conditional Use Permit
Duplex and Accessory Dwelling Unit
450 Riverside Avenue
Aspen, CO
Dear Commissioners,
Please consider the application for a Conditional Use for the subject property on the merits of the
graphic information, the application enclosed herewith and the following responses to the
standards for development as set forth in Attachment 4, Review Standards: Development of
Conditional Use.
Description of Proposed Use:
The proposed development is the demolition of existing sub -standard housing attached to an
existing conforming residence recorded as the Molly Gibson Loop Condominiums. The project
will leave the original 3 bedroom residential unit on the north end in place, add a new two bedroom
duplex unit and a street level accessory dwelling unit along with a two car garage over a full
basement. Additional required parking will be located on -site.
A. The subject property is located within the Medium -Density Residential (R-6) zone district
(sec. 5-201) which provides for permitted uses of Duplex units and Accessory Dwelling
Units meeting the provisions of Section 5-510. The Accessory Dwelling unit is subject to a
Conditional Use Permit. The lot meets the requirements of minimum lot area of 6,000 sf
with an actual lot area of 10,350 sf. The property is located in the original Aspen Townsite
and within walking distance to the center of the city. The design has been developed within
the guidelines for setback, floor area and height as setforth under section 5-201(D) and Off
street parking as setforth in section 5-201(E).
B. The conditional use is consistent and compatible with the character of the immediate vicinity
which is a mix of single family detached, attached condominiums, moderate density
apartments, recreational horse riding stables and open spaces along the Roaring Fork
River.
C. The location of the proposed use is within stipulated setback and height limits which have
been established to safeguard the rights of all property owners adjacent to and affected by
the rightful development of this property. This development takes advantage of vies{ of
the mountain and valley terrain as well as other physical features afforded by its location
without affecting adversely the same type of opportunities enjoyed by neighboring
properties. The varying heights of the roof line and siting of the structure are considerate
of the neighbors. The pedestrian and vehicular impacts are negligible in that the
development is no more densely developed than it has been in the past. Two parking spaces
for the new development will be in garages instead of all on surface parking minimiAm-) the
visual impact of the parking. There will be no change in the negligible impacts of trash.
service delivery, noise, vibrations and odor on surrounding properties.
D. The site is currently served with public facilities and services and which will not k an"
more severely impacted by this development than they are currently. The site is at the
corner of two dedicated streets (Riverside Avenue and Colorado state highway 82) Which
contain public utilities of sewer and water that is of adequate capacity for this project. Site
drainage is via surface flow to a storm drain catch basin east of the intersection of highway
82 and Riverside Ave. The existing parks, police, fire prote-ction, emergency medical
services, hospital and medical services in Aspen will not be adversely impacted by tlic
development of this property. The fire protection services will be impacted positi�cl\ h\
the updated and current construction of the new buildings, eliminating the current tirc
hazards of the existing sub -standard development of the units attached to the conforn1tl1`0-
residential unit. Schools will not be adversely impacted by this small development.
E. This development includes an accessory dwelling unit for the express purpose of prop sding
affordable housing for the Aspen community. The nature and size of the development does
not contribute to an increased need for employees in the area but will provide space at W1
affordable level within a residential zone.
F. It is the intent of the developer of the property to comply with all additional standards
imposed by the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and by all other applicable requirell)c1lts
of the conditional use permit as granted by the City of Aspen.

MEMORANDUM
To: Mary Lackner, Planning Office
From: Chuck Roth, Engineering Department C-p-
Date: April 28, 1994
Re: Molly Gibson Loop Condominiums Conditional Use for an Accessory Dwelling
Unit (ADU)
Having reviewed the above referenced application, and having made a site inspection, the
Engineering Department has the following comments:
1. For filing purposes and future access and use of public records, please note that the
title of the existing condominium is Molly Gibson Lop Condominiums. Also, the current
application is not for an approval that would require a plat or a plat amendment, but the
applicant is advised that a plat amendment may be needed in the future for title policy
purposes. When a plat amendment is prepared, it is required to meet the requirements
of City Code Section 24-7-1004.D.
2. Sidewalk, Curb & Gutter - Section 19-98 requires construction of sidewalk, curb and
gutter for new construction. The "Pedestrian Walkway and Bikeway System Plan," aka the
Ped Plan, identifies Riverside Avenue as a primary pedestrian route. Highway 82 is of
course also a primary pedestrian route. Approval of an accessory dwelling unit may not
be an appropriate circumstance for requiring construction of sidewalk on Highway 82. We
would like to follow Section 19-98 and require sidewalk construction on Highway 82 for
this project as a component of rebuilding Unit B. I have discussed this with the
applicant's representative. Both halves of the condominiumized duplex remain in single
ownership. I will continue to work with him prior to the P & Z meeting.
At any rate, it is recommended that, at a minimum, the applicant be required to
sign a sidewalk, curb and gutter improvement agreement for Riverside Avenue prior to
issuance of a building permit.
3. On -site Parking - On -site parking is not required for an ADU, however because of the
lack of parking on the street, it is recommended that an on -site parking space be required
for the ADU. Parking spaces may not extend into the public right-of-way.
4. Driveways - The existing driveways do not meet Code requirements of only one per
lot and with a maximum width of 18 feet as provided for in Section 19-101. Since the site
design does not appear to permit the duplex to be able to function with a single driveway,
a second driveway may be built for the new half of the duplex. It must however meet the
other requirements of Section 19-101.
5. Site drainage - One of the considerations of a development application for conditional
use is that there are adequate public facilities to service the use. One public facility that
is inadequate is the City storm drain system. Also, since this is a previously subdivided
parcel, the storm runoff standards of Section 24-7-1004.C.4.f apply, and the building permit
plans must provide for storm run-off to be maintained on site. Roof drains and the
driveway area may be drained to drywells or to landscaped areas.
6. Trash Storage Areas - The final building permit plans must indicate the trash storage
area, which may not be in the public right-of-way. All trash storage areas should be
indicated as trash and recycle areas. Any trash and recycle areas that include utility
meters or other utility facilities must provide that such facilities not be blocked by trash
and recycle containers.
7. Utilities - Any new surface utility needs for pedestals or other facilities must be
installed on an easement provided by the applicant and not in the public right-of-way.
8. Topographic Survey - It appears that the topographic survey is also intended to
function as a site improvement survey. The survey contains the language "R.O.W: area
in question." The Engineering Department files contain a copy of an amended Molly
Gibson Loop Condominiums plat, drawing number 828-138, which shows a road and utility
easement which must be indicated on the survey prior to issuance of a building permit.
9. Encroachments - Railroad tie cribbing and a fence encroach into the public right-of-
way. It is desirable 'that these features be relocated back onto private property, but it is
not mandatory at this time. If Unit A is redeveloped, the encroachments should be
removed although the property owner does have the right to apply for an encroachment
license.
10. Work in the Public Right-of-way - Given the continuous problems of unapproved work
and development in public rights -of -way adjacent to private properties, we advise the
applicant as follows:
The applicant shall consult city engineering (920-5080) for design
considerations of development within public rights -of -way, parks department
(920-5120) for vegetation species, and shall obtain permits for any work or
development, including landscaping, within public rights -of -way from city
streets department (920-5130).
Work in the public right-of-way includes landscaping and driveways.

DATE: April 29, 1994
RE: Molly Gibson Condos A & B Conditional Use Review for an Accessory Dwelling Unit
We have reviewed the application submitted by Audrey Churchill and offer the following
comments. Two Aspen trees are shown on the existing conditions site plan but no indication of
their size is mentioned If these trees are within code, a tree permit will be required prior to
issuance of a building permit~ It is also recommended, that the applicant be encouraged to install
sidewalk along Highway 82 during their construction project. Although the new construction is
primarily along Riverside Ave, this property borders the Highway and this sidewalk is an
important link for pedestrian use into town.

TO: Mary Lackner, Planning Office
FROM: Cindy Christensen, Housing office
DATE: MAY 11, 1994
RE: Churchill Conditional Use Review for an lecessory
Dwelling unit
Parcel in No.
The Housing Office recommends approval for the requested accessory
dwelling unit based on the following conditions:
Accessory dwelling units shall contain not less than three hundred (300) square feet of allowable boor
area and nod more than seven hundred (700) square feet of allowable floor area. The unk shalt be

limited to rental pariods of not less than six (6) months in duration. Owners of the principal residence
shall have the right to place a qualified employee or employees of his or her Choosing in the
accessory dwelling unit.
The applicant states that the unit is to be 654 square feet of net
liveable area, attached to a new two -bedroom duplex unit (street
level). According to the plans, the unit has a separate entrance,
contains one bedroom and is a completelyprivate unit. The plans
also show that the kitchen meets our definition of same as stated
below:
must contain a minimum of a two-bumer stove with oven, Standard sink, and a 6-cubic foot
refrigerator plus freezer.
in reviewing the floor plans, this unit is a good example of what
an accessory dwelling unit should resemble. The kitchen is a nice
size, it has a full bath, and is located above -grade..
Before the applicant can receive building permit approval, the
applicant must provide a signed and recorded Deed Restriction,
which can be obtained from the housing Office. The Housing Office
must have the recorded book and page number prior to building
permit approval.
