TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Any Amidon, Historic Preservation Officer
RE: 835 W. Main Street, Landmark Designation
DATE: September 21, 1993
SUMMARY: The Planning and Zoning Commission is to make a
recommendation on the proposed Landmark Designation of 835 W. Main
Street. This property features a log house built in 1947 and
designed by local architect Fritz Benedict. The parcel was
officially annexed into Aspen in July 1993.
APPLICANT: Bruce N. Berger, represented by Scott Harper, attorney.
LOCATION: 835 W. Main Street, commonly referred to as the Berger
Annexation, described as Section 12, Township 10 South, Range 85
West of the 6th P.M., City of Aspen.
PROCEDURE FOR REVIEW: Landmark Designation is a three -step
process, requiring recommendations from both HPC and P&Z (public
hearings), and first and second reading of a Landmark Designation
Ordinance by City Council. City Council holds a public hearing at
second reading.
The Aspen Historic Preservation Committee unanimously approved
landmark designation of 835 W. Main Street on September 8, 1993.
LOCAL DESIGNATION STANDARDS: Section 7-702 of the Aspen Land Use
Code defines the six standards for local Landmark Designation,.
requiring that the resource under consideration meet at least one
of the following standards:
A. Historical Importance: The structure or site is a
principal or secondary structure or site commonly
identified or associated with a person or an event of
historical significance to the cultural, social or
political history of Aspen, the State of Colorado of the
United States.
Response: This standard is not met.
B. Architectural Importance: ' The structure or site
reflects an architectural style that is unique, distinct
or of traditional Aspen character.
Response: The house exhibits the influence of master
architect Frank Lloyd Wright in its horizontal form,
natural materials and details. Only a few residential
and commercial buildings in Aspen reflect this style.
C. Architectural Importance: The structure or site
embodies the distinguishing characteristics of a
significant or unique architectural type or specimen.
Response: Three local architects, including Fritz
Benedict, apprenticed with Frank Lloyd Wright and applied
their experience to Aspen. This building was one of
Benedict's first designs following his study, and more
closely reflects Wrightian principals than his later
work.. It is a unique reflection of Wright's influence
and also of the early development of Benedict's design
theories.
D. Architectural Importance: The structure is a
significant work of an architect whose individual work
has -influenced the character of Aspen.
Response: Fritz Benedict began visiting Aspen through
his association with the 10th Mountain Division. After
apprenticing with Frank Lloyd Wright in both Wisconsin
and Arizona, he relocated to Aspen, where he has had a
significant influence on modern design in this community
and the State of Colorado. Another of Benedict's local
works, the "Waterfall House," was demolished in 1992.
Although it was not fifty years old (the age generally
used to qualify a structure as historic) , it was
determined eligible for the National Register of Historic
Places due to the importance of this architect's work.
E. Neighborhood Character: The structure or site is a
significant component of an historically significant
neighborhood and the preservation of the structure or
site is important for the maintenance of that
neighborhood character.
Response: Several homes which surround the Berger parcel
are of a similar scale, form and building period. These
buildings create an interesting relationship to each
other and to the surrounding commercial, lodge and
residential development.
F. Community Character: The structure or site is
critical to the preservation of the character of the
Aspen community because of its relationship in terms of
size, location and architectural similarity to other
structures or sites of historical or architectural
importance.
Response: This building represents a period in Aspen's
development which is just beginning to reach fifty years
of age (the age generally used to qualify a structure as
historic) . Aspen must recognize the importance of these
structures to the town Is "renaissance" created by the
development of the skiing industry. Two buildings
designed by Fritz Benedict have been demolished in the
last year, and nearly twenty have been demolish in recent
years because their importance to the character of this
area has not been sufficiently recognized.
Recommendation: Staff and HPC recommend P&Z approve
Landmark Designation of 835 W. Main Street, Berger
Annexation, City of Aspen, finding that it meets criteria
B, C, D, E and F.
Additional Comments:
MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Leslie Lamont, Senior Planner
RE: - Souki 8040 Greenline Review and Conditional Use Review
DATE: September 21, 1993
Summary: The applicant proposes to develop a single-family home
on a 3+ acre lot off of Ute Avenue. The applicant also proposes
to provide an attached accessory dwelling unit. The site and
access is located on the steep forested hillside south of Ute
Avenue and above the elevation of 8040 thus necessitating 8040
Greenline review. The inclusion of the accessory dwelling unit
requires conditional use review.
Staff recommends tabling the 8040 Greenline review in.order to
gather more information and resolve several outstanding issues.
Staff recommends denial of the accessory dwelling unit.
APPLICANT: Charif Souki as represented by Brooke Peterson
LOCATION: Lot 3 of the Hoag Subdivision, City of Aspen
ZONING: Conservation
APPLICANT'S REQUEST: 8040 Greenline approval for the construction
of a single family home and conditional use approval for an
accessory dwelling unit.
BACKGROUND: Following is the history of development proposals of
Lot 3 in the Hoag Subdivision:
October 18, 1971 The Hoag Subdivision was approved by the Aspen
City Council creating 5 lots south of Ute Avenue. Lot 3, is the
highest up the hill and on the steepest terrain.
On the original plat, the old Midland right-of-way was designated
a "Utility and Public Trail Easement." The Midland appears to be
the only improved access to Lot 3, although it was not shown as an
ingress/egress access.
July 20, 1976 Virden 8040 Greenline was approved for a 2,324
single family residence. A detached garage was to be located off
the old railroad right of way; and the house was to be placed with
walk-up access only. A temporary construction road was to be
built, and recovered and reseeded prior to the certificate of
occupancy. As part of the Virden Review, an avalanche hazard study
conducted by Hans Frintiger and Whitney Boland in 1976 was
submitted. Three avalanche tracks were identified across the
property. It was concluded that within the "wedge" of Douglas fir,
where the Virden house was proposed, the probability of avalanche
penetration was small.
October 7, 1985 Barker Greenline Review was approved in
conjunction with the Nordic Council Trail Greenline Review for the
development of an access road to a proposed building site. However
condition #1 of the Greenline approval, was that no construction
on Lot 3 Hoag Subdivision shall be allowed until a development plan
is given approval through a separate 8040 Greenling Review.
The proposed access road, approximately -690 feet long, would go
from Ute Avenue to the Hoag Subdivision Lot 3 building site,
passing through Forest Service property, Lot 4 Hoag Subdivision
and the Newfoundland Mining Claim. This proposal eliminated the
need to use the Utility and Trail easement that is shared by Lots
4 and 5. Barker however needed a Forest Service Special Use Road
Permit for construction of the driveway on its property.
August 27, 1986 The Forest Service, after an environmental
assessment of Barker's proposal, denied the request for a Special
Use Road Permit.
December 2, 1986 A new driveway, approximately 545 feet .in length,
providing access to the building site was approved by the Planning
and Zoning Commission. The road, which has since been constructed,
enters Lot 3 off of the Utility and Trail Easement, runs through
the site almost to the western edge, switching back once, up into
the lot, to access the building site from above.
April 4, 1989 Jack Barker and Joe Zaluba request 8040 Greenline
approval to construct a single-family home.
The 8040 request was subsequently tabled so the applicant could
submit information that would address issues of concern.
January 2, 1990 The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the
Zaluba 8040 greenline which included the creation of a new access
road in order to preserve the majority of the nordic trail.
Please see attached Resolution 4, 1990, exhibit A.
The large driveway and hairpin turn that was cut into the hill
pursuant to the December 2, 1986.approval were to be revegetated
as part of this approval.
Summer of 1990 Mr. Zaluba cut a new access road to the approved
building envelop.
May 28, 1991 The Board of County Commissioners approved a single-
family residence on the Newfoundland Lode directly to the east of

Bear IAMIiC,
I am writing in response to the notification of the Souki Conditional use review and 8040
Greenline Review.
I am enclosing a copy of the letter I wrote to the Board of Adjustment. It summarizes our
objections to the development of Lot 3 Hoags Addition. Since the variance has been
granted, I hope that those issues will be addressed at the $040 hearing.
In addition, Gary and I STRONGLY OBJECT to the accessory dwelling unit for that
property. The road to it is and wail remain (I hope!) a single lane. If an accessory
dwelling unit is approved, there will be far more traffic and a higher occupancy density
than was ever intended for that site. In addition, if it is approved, then it will set a
precedent for the Newfoundland Claim to also have an ADU. The amount of car and
truck traffic would be impossible.
We also worry about the viability of the Nordic Ski Trail. It has been messed up for
several seasons now, and more traffic would make it worse.
Since we are not able to attend the meeting on September 21 st, please make sure that our
views are known. Thank you.

Dear Remo, .
We own the property at 115 Ute Avenue, Lot 5, Hoag's Edition, and we have comments
about the variance request for Lot 3, Hoag's Edition, about which the Board of
Adjustment plans to meet on August 12 at 4:00M.
Hopefully, you are aware of the long history about the development of that property. We
urge you to review the file on it (Leslie Lamont, at Planning and Zoning office, probably
has it or can get it), as it west through variance, P & Z, and finally revocation of its
building permit. You will also find letters from us in that file, detailing the many issues
that we found and stilt find objectionable.
We believe that the approval of a development plan for tot 3 should be denied because the
alope is extremely steep, and the resulting tree removal and excavation will cause high risk
of rock slides and avalanches both during and after construction. If for some reason you
do approve it, we urge you to make that approval contingent on certain conditions:
The owneWdevelopers MUST post a performance bond before any work
whatsoever begins on that project.
• The new road to access the property and the original Nordic Trail road must be
completed in at least as good a way as the city planning office onginally stipulated.
This includes re vegetation, boulder walls, avalanche mitigation, etc. - all of this
was detailed in earlier documents on file with the city. Because the original
developer did not have a performance bond, he was able to really open up some
wide areas on very steep and treed terrain. One of the results, besides big scarring,
is that there are numerous snow slides on the trail. The trail was closed for all of
March and April this year, and while it was a heavy snow year, there were slides in
other years too, which had not happened before those roads were cut. As a matter

originally damaged it or the new owners.
During any building, roads or homes, there must be construction fences which
protect our property as well as our neighbors, from debris, boulders, etc. falling
down upon us.
• There must be limitations set on the number of trucks and large vehicles that can

• Needless to say, a responsible person and agency must be appointed to y

many things and then did not do them. No one was there to check on tam or red
tag him for his lack of compliance.
please also review the agreement between the subject property and the Newfoundland
Claim next door, The Newfoundland has access rights across the Hoag *3 property.
They are also part of this Puzzle and the potential for future problems. Both of these properties should be part of the same sorts of limitations, because of the fragile nature of
their location.
We urge all the members of the committee to personally go to the site, so they can
appreciate the seriousness and difficulties of building in that area.
Thank you for allowing us to express our views. Please do not let these issues drop into
the cracksl We would also appreciate being copied on the outcome of the meeting.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Arran Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Kim.Johnson, Planning
RE: Snow Queen Lodge - GMQS Exemption for an Affordable
Housing Unit and Special Review for FAR in a Lodge
Preservation Zone District
DATE: September 21, 1993
.SUMMARY: The applicant seeks to construct a manager's apartment
deed restricted to Category 3 price/income level on the Snow Queen
Lodge property. This is a GMQS exemption by Council with review
and recommendation from the Commission. Also necessary by the
Commission is Special Review for floor area ratio in an LP zone.
Staff recommends approval of the GMQS Exemption and Special Review
with conditions.
APPLICANT: Norma Dolle and Larry Ledingham, represented by:Larry
Ledingham
LOCATION: 124 E. Cooper Ave. (Lot Q and east half of Lot P, Block
69, City and Townsite of Aspen)
ZONING: (LP) Lodge Preservation
APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant seeks GMQS Exemption and
Special Review for FAR in a LP zone for the construction of an 800
s.f. manager's quarters on the northwest corner of the lodge
building. Part of the addition also includes a bathroom for one
of the guest rooms. Please refer to the application text and
drawings, Exhibit "A". The existing structure is approximately
2,500 s . f . Proposed FAR is therefore approximately 3,300 s . f . The
two level addition will contain the kitchen, living and dining
areas on the upper floor and the bedroom on the ground level.
REFERRAL COMMENTS: For complete referral.memos, please see Exhibit
"g"
Engineering: 1) The sidewalk in front of the lodge needs repair.
2) The fence along E. Cooper is encroaching into the public right-
of-way.
3) The project's trash storage area -needs to be identified.
Housing Authority: The Housing Office supports this request and
recommends Category 3 deed restriction for the unit.
STAFF COMMENTS: GMQS Exemption for Affordable Housing-: Pursuant
to Section 8-104 C.1(c) the Council shall exempt deed restricted
housing that is provided in accordance with the housing guidelines.
However the Commission shall review -and make a recommendation to
Council regarding the housing package. According to the Code, the
review of any request for exemption of housing pursuant to this
section shall include a determination of the City's need for such
housing, considering the proposed development's compliance with an
adopted housing plan, the number of dwelling units proposed and
their location, the type of dwelling units proposed, specifically
regarding the number of bedrooms in each unit, the size of the
dwelling unit, the rental/sale mix of the proposed development, and
the proposed price categories to which the dwelling units are to
be deed restricted.
RESPONSE: The Snow Queen Lodge has seven bedrooms, one being used
by two employees and one used by the manager (180 s.f.). This
situation cuts into the available rooms for guests down to five.
The applicant is voluntarily proposing to construct the new
manager's apartment for the benefit of the tanager and to replace
a room for lodge accommodation.
The deed restriction recommended by the Housing Office is Category
3, which allows monthly rent up to $910.00 and maximum household
income of $50f000.00. This restriction is agreeable to the
applicant.
Affordable housing for lodge employees is listed as a permitted use
in the LP zone. The proposed addition received a side yard setback
variance from the Zoning Board of Adjustment in May 1993, and
otherwise complies with the dimensional requirements of the LP
zone. According to the Land Use Code, parking for residential use
is N/A (not applicable) in the LP district. There are currently
4 parking spaces on -site, with the opportunity to add one more if
a small shed is removed. Since the new affordable unit is allowing
a bedroom to be re-established for guest use and the shed is
already an encroachment onto the neighboring property, staff
recommends that it be removed and an additional gravel parking
space be accommodated off of the alley for a total of five on -site
spaces.
Special Review for FAR in a LP zone: The dimensional requirements
of the PL zone district require FAR to be approved by Special
Review, but shall not exceed 1:1. Section 7-404 A.1 and 2.
establish the standards as follows:
1. The mass, height, density, configuration, amount of open
space, landscaping and setbacks of the proposeddevelopment
are designed in such a manner which is compatible with or
enhances the character of surrounding land uses and is
consistent with the purposes of the underlying zone district.
2. The applicant demonstrates that the proposed development will
not have adverse impacts on surrounding uses or will mitigate
those impacts, including but not limited to the effects of
2
rA
shading, excess traffic, availability of parking in the
neighborhood, or blocking of a designated view plane.
Response: The parcel size is 4,500 s.f. The proposed floor area
on the site will be approximately 3,345 s.f. or .71:1, well below
the 1:1 maximum allowed by Special Review. The proposed extension
is at the rear and side of the existing two story structure,
covering a one story section and proceeding to the rear an
additional 20 feet. The new rear wall will extend approximately
4' beyond the adjacent rear wall of the building. Twenty-one feet
remain between the rear property line and the proposed rear wall
which more than adequately accommodates the required 18' long
parking space, including some snow storage.space. The rear portion
of the lot is already a gravel parking area., so the character of
the alleyway will not be substantially changed. Additional
landscaping along the rear of the addition is not necessarily
advisable because of the parking and snow storage needs, although
a sturdy low -growing shrub type would work.
As earlier mentioned, the Zoning Board of Adjustment has already
granted a 3.6' variance for the required 5' side setback along the
western property line. The property adjacent to the west contains
the two-story Little Red Ski House. The proposed Snow Queen
addition will block the easterly views from this property.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of GMQS Exemption and
Special Review for FAR for the Category 3 deed restricted manager's
unit to be voluntarily constructed at the Snow Queen Lodge with the
following conditions:
1. The owner shall submit appropriate deed restrictions to the
Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority for approval. The units
shall be deed restricted to Category 3 occupancy. Upon approval
by the Housing Authority, the Owner shall record the deed
restrictions with the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder's Office.
2. Prior to issuance of any building* permits for the property, a
copy of the recorded deed restrictions for the new dwelling unit
must be forwarded to the Planning Office.
3. The shed in the northwest area of the property shall be removed
and a fifth parking space shall be added off ' of the alley. All
parking spaces must be shown and dimensioned on the site plan
included for a building permit.
4. The site plan for building permit shall indicate the trash
storage area for this project.
5. Prior to issuance of any building permit, an encroachment
license or removal is required for the fence located in the E.
Cooper right-of-way.
3
6. All material representations made by the applicant in the
application and during public meetings with the Planning and Zoning
Commission and City Council shall be adhered to and considered
conditions of approval, unless otherwise amended by other
conditions.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to approve GMQS Exemption and Special
Review for FAR for the Category 3 manager's housing unit to be
voluntarily constructed at the Snow Queen Lodge with the conditions
recommended in the Planning Office memo dated September 21, 1993."
