ZONING: AH/PUD (Affordable Housing/PUD) LAND USE The Applicants are requesting approval of a PUD amendment to the REQUESTS: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD pursuant to the procedures established in Land Use Code Section 26.445.100(14 Amendment of PUD development order. STAFF Staff recommends approval with conditions. RECOMMENDATION: PLANNING AND The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended by a four to zero ZONING COMMISSION vote that the City Council approve with conditions, a PUD RECOMMENDATION: amendment to allow for the unfinished basements at Snyder Park to be finished without bedrooms. LAND USE ACTIONS REQUESTED: The Applicants are requesting an amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD. City Council may approve. approve with conditions, or deny the PUD amendment request after considering a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100, Amendment of PUD Development Order. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The Applicants would like to amend the PUD to allow for the unfinished basements in eight (8) of the nine 1-bedroom units to be finished with a variety of room uses, including bedrooms and bathrooms. The ninth 1 -bedroom unit is not proposed for expansion because it is currently slab on grade construction. Originally, these units were approved to be built as slab-on-grade construction with no crawl spaces or basements. When the units were submitted for building permit, a crawl space was required to be constructed for egress purposes under each of the units. Subsequently during the excavation for the -1- .. construction of the crawl spaces. the contractors ran into soils that were not good load bearing soils where the tloor of the crawl spaces were to be built. In the end, the units were constructed with full-height, unfinished basements. Several of the units have since finished their basements. but tliey have not been allowed to include bedrooms or bathrooms because of the possible impacts associated with adding bedrooms to the site. As part of the original application made by the Applicants. the possibility to add bedrooms to the basements to be finished was requested. However. the Planning and Zoning Commission felt that the ability to add bedrooms intended for sleeping purposes to the basements could exacerbate the parking problems that exist on Midland Avenue by allowing for more people to live within the development. As a result of this concern. the Applicants revised their application to eliminate the request for bedrooms. SUMMARY OF PREVIOUS HEARING: ,,th At the previous hearing on October ii , City Council heard a presentation of the land use request by Staff and the Applicants. considered a recommendation by the Planning anci Zoning Commission, and heard public comments. At the conclusion of the hearing. several Council members indicated that more information was needed to gauge the implications that a decision on tliis issue might have. It was also suggested by Council that Staff detail the positives and negatives of the various decision options available to City Council in relation to this land use request. That being the case, Staff has included the additional information requested by Council and has provided an analysis of the pros and cons for each of the decision options in the following paragraphs. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: As described above. City Council asked for a variety of additional information in order to make a decision on the proposed land use request from both Staff and the Applicants. Of Staff. Council requested the following information: â€¢ The minutes from the hearings on the original approvals of the Snyder PUD. â€¢ The Housing Authority's policy on renting affordable housing units or bedrooms within affordable housing units. â€¢ Number of different types (i.e. studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom) of units in our current housing inventory. â€¢ Listing of other affordable housing units in town that have unfinished basements that could have similar requests to finish their unfinished basements. â€¢ More information on what took place at the Twin Ridge affordable housing complex. Iii response to the request for the minutes from the hearings on the original Snyder Park approvals. Staff has attached what the Clerk's Office has from the minutes of the 1998 hearings. However. some of the records are missing from the August 10. 1998 meeting .." minutes and the minutes (attached as Exhibit A ) we do have do not discuss the basements. It is the recollection of Community Development Director Chris Bendon (who acted as the case planner for the City on the original development application) that -2- .. the basements were ali afterthought that came about in the construction process and was not addressed in the original review. Staff also contacted the Housing Authority's former project manager, Lee Novak. who had a similar recollection that the basements for the one bedroom units came about during the construction process and were not planned and were not discussed willi City Council. Mr. Novak further indicated that he remembered that the Housing Authority concluded at the time the basements were installed that it was appropriate for the owners to finish the basements without bedrooms. Staff has attached a memorandum (attached as Exhibit "B") from the Housing Authoritv that discusses the Housing Authority's policy in relation to renting units and bedrooms within units. The Housing Authority s policy is that owners may rent out bedrooms iii their units as long as their tenants are qualified by the Housing Authority. The attached memorandum also addresses the question of what other affordable housing projects within the City also have unfinished basements that could be subject to a request similar to that of the Snyder Park Homeowners. Additionally, the Housing Authority memorandum discusses the situation with the Twin Ridge Condominiums which Councilwoman Richards brought up at the last hearing. From the Applicants. City Council asked for the following information: â€¢ The number of 1-bedroom units that have the two entrances, one from within the upstairs unit and one from the exterior into the basements. â€¢ The number of the units that were installed with phone jacks and cable television hookups in the basements. 111 response to the information requests outlined above, the Applicants investigated and determined that five (5) of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units subject to this application have both an access from within the unit to the basement and another access door directly from the basement to the outdoors. The remainder of the 1 -bedroom units simply have an access to the basement from within the unit above. Additionally. the Applicants have represented that four (4) out of the eight (8) units were fitted with phone jacks and cable television hookups in the basements. ~TAFF COMMENTS: City Council asked Staff to identify the positives and negatives associated with the decision options that are available on this application. Staff sees the decision options for Council to be as follows: â€¢Option 1: Approve the ability for the Applicants to finish the basements with up to one additional bedroom in each of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units as was originally requested. â€¢ Optioii 2: Approve the ability for the Applicants to finish the basements without the ability to add bedrooms or full bathrooms to the units as the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended. UJ .. â€¢ Option 3: Deny the proposed request. which would clarify tliat the basements are only allowed to be used for storage purposes and are not allowed to be finished. Staff has provided the following chart to identify what we see as the pros and cons of the development options described above: Decision Option 1 : Finish Option 2: Finish Option 3: Deny Options basements w/ basements without Application. basements additional bedrooms adding bedrooms can only be used as storage Positives -Applicants could -Applicants could -No increase in parking increase livability of increase livability of impact on Midland units by increasing units by increasing the Avenue as a result of the amount of livable amount of livable basements. square footage. square footage. -No possible precedent -Maintain affordability - Maintain affordability set for other affordable with a condition with a condition housing projects that limiting the owners limiting the owners' may want to finish their ability to recoup only ability to recoup only unfinished basements. 10% of the 10% of the improvement costs iii improvement costs in the resale price of the the resale price of the units. units. -Maintain existing mix -Less chance of of units in the increasing people community by applying within the development condition that the units than option 1 that could would still be sold as exacerbate parking one-bedroom units. problems on Midland Avenue. -Easy enforcement-no regulations on room uses.

(Staff believes the risk (Staff believes the risk for setting a precedent for setting a precedent is ininimal, please see is minimal. please see discussion 111 Staff discussion lit Staff Comments). Comments). linit Expandabilitv and Unit Livabililv: As was discussed at the previous hearing on this matter, Staff believes that provisions for lillit expandability are important iii the development of affordable housing projects in order to allow for unit owners to hold onto their units longer as their families grow and they proceed through different life stages. And in the long run. Staff believes that longer occupancy of affordable housing units creates neighborhood coherence and character that we seek iii Aspen. At the last hearing. Councilman DeVilbiss asked Staff to further clarify why we believe that allowing the Applicants to finish their basements would help to allow for them to keep their units through different life stages even though they would not have the ability to add a bedroom to the units. In making the comment that unit expandability would allow for owners to maintain their units through different life stages. Staff did not necessarily have unit owners tliat were looking to have children in mind. Staff had owners that were looking at taking on a spouse or a significant other in mind with the thought that more useable space within an existing unit would simply make the unit more livable without having any impacts on the aesthetics of the units. Parking Inipacts: As was also discussed at the last meeting. Staff believes that the addition of a bedroom to each of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units as was originally requested would have had a minimal impact on both traffic and parking. The number of off-street parking spaces provided in the development is two (2) parking spaces for each of the units that contain two (2) or more bedrooms and one parking space for each of the units that currently contain one bedroom. Staff felt that the majority of the finished basement spaces that would result from this amendmeiit would likely be used by people that already live in Snyder Park units and were not likely to create a significant increase iii traffic or parking demand since they are in close proximity to the core of town and on an in-town bus route. However. the Planning and Zoning Commission indicated that providing for the possibility of adding an additional bedroom in each of the eight 1 -bedroom units would likely exacerbate the parking problems that exist on Midland Avenue. As a compromise. the Planning and Zoning Commission expressed that it would be acceptable to allow for the unfinished basements to be finished with a powderoom consisting of at most one toilet and one sink, but not allowing for the basements to include bedrooms as was originally requested. The Commission felt that allowing for the basements to be finished -5- .. with room uses other than bedrooms would allow for the basement spaces to be used without likely increasing the number of people that live within the development. Enfbrcement of No Bedroom Regulation: At the last meeting. Staff was posed with the question of how to enforce that the basements would 11Ot include bedrooms upon being finished if Council were to accept the I. Planning and Zoning Commission s recommendation to allow the Applicants to finish their basements without full bathrooms or bedrooms. The honest answer is that it will be very difficult for Staff to enforce such a requirement. Staff can make sure that the basements do not have a closet and a full bathroom upon their completion in doing our certificate of occupancy inspection. But beyond that. Staff typically relies on citizen complaints to inform us of zoning violations and in this situation we would likely have to rely on the Applicants' policing themselves to an extent, by filing a zoning complaint when they feel that one of their neighbors is improperly using the basement space. Staff would suggest that improperly using the basement space in this scenario would be reiiting the basement space out or having someone beyond their spouse or signi Meant other occupying the space for more than a short visit. In discussing the enforcement problem. Staff believes that there will be a similar enforcement issue if the application is denied in that Staff would have to enforce that the units would not be allowed to have finished basements. Staff would have to rely on similar enforcement techniques to those discussed above. iii order to prevent the Applicants from finishing the basements. Therefore, Staff does not believe that the enforcement issues that would be associated with allowing for the basements to be finished without bedrooms are any greater than the enforcement problems that would come about by denying the application. Concern Over Selting a Precedent und Changing Ihe Communitv's Mix of l-Inits: During the discussion at the last meeting, several members of Council were concerned about setting a precedent that would garner requests froni other affordable housing projects wanting to finish their basements. In considering this concern. Staff had the Housing Authority come up with an inventory of affordable housing units that they believe have full height, unfinished basements that is included iii their memorandum attached as Exhibit '13". As can be seen by the housing memorandum. there are not really any units in a similar situation. Additionally. this is a site specific situation and any other affordable housing units that want to make a similar request would have to be reviewed on the merits of their individual situation. That being the case. Staff does not believe that approving or denying the application would establish a precedent. Another question was raised about whether allowing the basements to be finished with bedrooms would change the mix of units within the community. Iii response to this question. Staff does not believe that adding a bedroom to the units would change the mix of units if City Council were to add a condition of approval to the proposed ordinance requiring that the units still be sold as 1-bedroom units as was requested by the Housing Authority in their original referral comments and as has been done at the Twin Ridge and -6- .. Common Ground affordable housing complexes. Staff feels that they would simply be large and likely more desirable 1-bedroom units. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that City Council approve the attached ordinance. approving the proposed PUD amendment to allow for the basements to be finished. without full bathrooms or bedrooms, with the conditions contained therein. If City Council believes that the Applicants should have the ability to finish the basements with a bedroom in each unit. Staff would recommend that Council add a condition of approval to the proposed ordiiiance requiring that the units continue to be sold as 1 -bedroom units with an office so that the inventory mix remains unchanged. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the PUD amendment request and recommended that City Council approve the PUD amendment to allow for tlie unfinished basement spaces to be finished with room uses other than bedrooms and full bathrooms. The Planning and Zoiiing Commission's resolution and minutes were provided as attachments to the first reading memorandum.

U /~8 17 M f Aspen City Council Regular Meeting July 13, 1998 Councilinembers Vickery and Markalunas said they would approve an open space variance in order to accommodate larger units. Councilman Vickery said he does not support the parking variance nor waiving the school dedication fees. Councilman Vickery said it is not germane how many kids are on a particular site. Mayor Pro Tem said she agrees on the parking and would consider waiving the dedication fees on the affordable housing unit. Councilman Paulson said he would not approve a parking variance and the applicants should pay the school dedication fees. Councilman Markalunas agreed. Councilman Vickery said the open space requirements may determine what type of units this project may have. It is not up to Council to get RO projects on the site. Councilman Vickery moved to adopt Ordinance #30, Series of 1998, on first reading; seconded by Councilman Markalunas. Roll call vote; Councilmembers Vickery, yes; Paulson, no; Markalunas, yes; Mayor Pro Tem Richards, yes. Motion carried. ORDINANCE #24, SERIES OF 1998 - Snyder Park Conceptual & Final PUD; GMQS Exemption Councilman Paulson moved to read Ordinance #24, Series of 1998; seconded by Councilman Markalunas. All in favor, motion carried. ORDINANCE #24 Series of 1998 AN ORDINANCE OF THE ASPEN CITY COUNCIL GRANTING REZONING FROM PITKIN COUNTY ZONE DISTRICT "MODERATE DENSITY RESIDENTIAL" (R-15) TO CITY OF ASPEN ZONE DISTRICT "AFFORDABLE HOUSING PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT" (AHZ-PUD); CONCEPTUAL AND FINAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL, SUBDIVISION APPROVAL, AN EXEMPTION FROM THE GROWTH MANAGEMENT COMPETITION AND SCORING PROCEDURES, APPROVAL OF THE METHOD IN WHICH AFFORDABLE HOUSING IS TO BE PROVIDED, AND WAIVER OF THE LAND USE APPLICATION, ZONING, AND PARK DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES FOR THE "SNYDER PARK" AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND NEIGHBORHOOD PARK PROJECT, 210 MIDLAND AVENUE, CITY OF ASPEN, PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO was read by the city clerk 13 .. Aspen Citv Council Regular Meeting July 13,1998 Chris Bendon, community development department, told Council this site is not in the city but is surrounded on 3 sides by the city and is proposed for annexation. The site is 3.2 acres with 2 ponds, increasing slopes to the south. The proposal is to subdivide the property into 1 acre for housing and 2 acres for parks. The property is zoned R-15 in the county and would allow subdivision for several houses. Bendon said this proposal meets the PUD and subdivision regulations, is 15 affordable housing units. Bendon told Council staff recommends approval with conditions. The growth management committee recommended approval 6 to 2 with concerns about creating greater accessibility to the upper courtyard for loading and for emergency access. P&Z recommended to deny rezoning for the project 3tol. P & Z also considered the residential design standards and parking for the project; both of these were denied. P & Z's concerns were the design of the project, arrival at the project where the cars are stored. Dave Tolen, housing director, told Council one of the objectives of the last 2-1/2 years of work was to design the best possible housing and neighborhood park. Tolen said the housing office worked closely with the neighbors and with the parks department. Another objective was to provide units of the type that are needed and also to provide a usable and attractive park. Tolen told Council staff looked at 11 different site designs. Tolen said the two existing ponds have been delineated as jurisdictional wetlands; there is a steep bench to the south ofthe site; there is a stand of mature trees. Tolen told Council the courtyard scheme for housing is driven by trying to reduce the impact of concrete and automobiles on the site. Tolen showed Council several previous site designs for a comparative with the one decided on. The current plan restricts access and parking to the smallest area possible the buildings are clustered around a courtyard. This maintains the contiguity of the site as a park. Tolen said both the growth commission and P & Z questioned the density of 15 affordable units on this site. Tolen said staff looked at if there was space for additional buildings, parking and cars and felt without compromising the park use felt there was not space for more units. Tolen said staff looked at trading density on this site for preserving open space in another site. Tolen said staff wanted to preserve this green space in an already dense neighborhood. Another issue from P&Zis whether single family homes on a streetscape may be more appropriate. Tolen said this was looked at in some plans for this site; however, at Snyder an extension of the streetscape was not appropriate with the topography. Tolen said it is preferable to cluster the sites and to preserve as much open space as possible. 14 .. Aspen City Council Regular Meeting Julv 13, 1998 Tolen said P&Z questioned the access and whether it may be inadequate. Tolen said staff looked at vehicle access balanced against other needs on the site. Tolen said limited access gives the best possible opportunity to create the best park on this site. Tolen showed a model ofthe topography of the site. Tolen explained that access cannot legally come from the back of the site because it a private road. Tolen told Council as far as adding units or changing the design, staff worked with the neighborhood and feel they have gained credibility through this process. Tolen said to add units or change the design, staff would need to meet with the neighbors. Tolen told Council the parks director has serious concerns about eliminating the wetlands on the north of the project and what it would do to the park. There is also the point that the city would not allow a private developer to eliminate wetlands to build houses. Tolen told Council they should do a site visit. The houses are staked out, Council can experience how far it is from the cars to the houses. Rebecca Schickling, assistant parks director, said Council bought this property with open space funds and to create a park in this area. Staff worked within the natural features and constraints of the parcel. There is a space where the previous housing existed, which will be used for the housing. Schickling noted there are 1 ponds on the property. One of these is not considered jurisdictional wetland; it acts as a sedimentation area for the ditch system and has a lot of concrete. The other 2 ponds support a wetland community, although they are degraded. These two ponds need permission from the Army Corps of Engineer to alter or to fill. Schickling said the city proposes to upgrade the wetlands to be more useful. Schickling told Council the Army Corps has given the city a permit to begin work upgrading the ponds; this permit is valid only until March 1999. Schickling told Council the parks department will improve the ditch and create a water course through the property. A playground will be added on the front part of the portion. Staff has been working with the property owner to the north to get a trail connection through both properties. There will be some picnic shelters. Schickling said an emphasis through the planning process has been to make sure there is an attractive and usable park. Dan Sadowski, adjacent neighbor, read a letter into the record. This letter had signatures of neighbors and said they have followed the process and strongly approve of the final design as presented by the housing authority. Sadowski said the neighbors reject P & Z's effort to introduce a major redesign at this point. Sadowski said during the 2 plus year process, many designs were considered and 15 .. Aspen City Council Regular Meeting Julv 13, 1998 this design was agreed on by all parties involved. Sadowski said this process was a sterling piece of civic planning. Tim Mooney, P&Z member and neighbor, said a series of checks and balances ultimately create the best result for the city and its citizens. Mooney said P&Z needs to stay within the code requirements when they review project and to review every project consistently. Mooney said a garage with a two story house on top is not an ideal situation. Mooney said the city' s design review standards particularly address streetscape, the dominance of the garage as it faces the street. Mooney told Council the design team stated they would get a variance from Ordinance #30 and they would not have to comply with the design standards. Councilman Paulson moved to suspend the rules and extend the meeting to 9:35 p.m.; seconded by Councilman Markalimas. All in favor, motion carried. Bob Blaich P&Z member, said this is an excellent site for affordable housing. The majority of P&Z felt, however, that more detailed design should be undertaken. Blaich said P&Z did not have any input until the project was complete. Blaich said the staff suggests waiving the design review standards. Blaich said many citizens feel the city has two sets of standards, one for private development and one for public development. If the city waives the design review standards, it will reinforce that opinion. At the same time Council wants to make Ordinance #30 more stringent. Blaich suggested Council approve this project without waiving the residential design standards and also refer the project back to DRAC. Tolen told Council staff is asking for relief from 2 residential design standards; one is the houses are not oriented to the street and the garages are on the fronts of the units as you enter with your vehicle. Tolen said in order to orient the houses to the street they would have to all be oriented to Midland avenue or the subdivision would have to create new streets. David Warner~ design team, said if the building had been skewed to match the tangent line of Midland Avenue, the project would look out ofplace in the neighborhood. The orientation is appropriate. Nick Lebby, adjacent property owner, told Council he has been involved in this project for about 3 years and it has evolved into a beautiful project. Lebby said incorporating a park and wetland close to town is a great amenity to the community. The affordable housing is in a beautiful setting and residents can walk to town. Lebby said preserving wetlands and trees and open space is what Aspen is about. Lebby said this was a long process and he appreciates being included in the process. 16 .. Aspen Citv Council Regular Meeting Julv 13, 1998 Tolen said he worked with the fire department on the emergency access and it meets their requirements. The fire department may use the private road to fight a fire, if necessary. The housing department has agreed to provide sprinklers for all structures. Mayor Pro Tem Richards said she supports this design. Mayor Pro Tem Richards noted the parks and recreation master plan identified a critical shortage ofpocket parks in this neighborhood. Mayor Pro Tem Richards said she wants this to be a stellar new park. Mayor Pro Tem Richards said the city may have to compromise the grid system on this project. Councilman Paulson moved to suspend the rules and extend the meeting to 9:45 p.m.; seconded by Councilman Markalunas. All in favor, motion carried. Councilman Markalunas said he feels this is an exemplary project and he supports the project the way it is. Councilman Markalunas said he likes that the natural features of the land have been preserved. Councilman Markalunas said in order to preserve natural beauty, the city needs to build in regulations to reduce the number ofcars and to reward projects with communal ears. Councilman Paulson said he would like the garages designed so that when one comes into the project the garages cannot be seen. Councilman Vickery said he does not feel there are fatal flaws in the project. Councilman Vickery said between now and second reading, Council should conduct a site visit and have a work session to see if there are any ideas that can be incorporated into the plan. Mayor Pro Tem Richards said she does not want to see the compromise with the neighbors broken. Councilman Markalunas moved to adopt Ordinance #24, Series of 1998, on first reading; seconded by Councilman Paulson. Roll call vote; Councilmembers Paulson, yes; Markalunas, yes; Vickery, yes; Mayor Pro Tem Richards, yes. Motion carried, Councilman Paulson moved to adjourn at 9:50 p.m.; seconded by Councilman Markalunas. All in favor, motion carried. 17 .. Aspen Citv Council Regular Meeting August 10, 1998 Councilwoman Richards amended her motion to include the condition that the applicant abide by the 25 foot setback offthe westersly side of the property; seconded by Councilman Markalunas. Reno requested this be tabled at the 25 foot setback is a major issue in putting the driveway in the middle. Councilwoman Richards withdrew her motion as requested by the applicant, seconded by Councilman Markalunas. All in favor, motion carried. Councilwoman Richards moved to continue Ordinance #20, Series of 1998; seconded by Councilman Paulson. All in favor, motion carried. ORDINANCE #24, SERIES OF 1998 - Snyder Park conceptual & Final PUD. GMOS Exemption Chris Bendon, community development department, showed Council the site and said this property is currently in the county. The proposal is to subdivi(le this 3.3 acres parcel into a 1 acre parcel for affordable housing and a 2 plus acre parcel for park. There will be 15 units: 9 one bedroom and 6 three bedroom units. The units will be a mix of category 3 and 4. Bendon noted in the courtyard area there is an exceptional view of Aspen moutnain. Some Councilmembers had asked if the building could be reconfigured so the view from the rear is not so compromised. The applicant does have some design suggestions. Bendon told Council P&Z recominended denial 3tol with concerns about having to carry things from the car park to where the units is locayted; the consition of arriving where the cars live, and concerns about the view toward Aspen mountain. Dave Tolen, housing office, showed the design history of this project starting with 24 units in a duplex configuration covering the entire site except for the wetlands. Council and staff did a site visit and decided the west and south portions of the site should be parks and green land. Tolen said in June 1994 staff began working with the neighborhood on design that would be acceptable. It was felt that 15 units would be an appropriate number for this site and keep a usable park site. The scheme best liked by the neighbors and staff has less pavement than previous ones and focuses the units internally. Tolen said the area to be park was chosen because of large stands of trees, wetlands and the area iii tl-le back had already been developed. The entry pavement has been minimized. The housing is clustered. The 7 .. Aspen City Council Regular Meeting August 10, 1998 parking is under some units and also in carports. There is a trail connection to highway 82 itp through Alpine cottages 8 0 0 64*41# MEMORANDUM TO: James Lindt FROM: Cindy Christensen DATE: October 24.2005 RE: SNYDER PARK PUD AMENDMENT ISSUE: City Council requested additional information regarding the request from the Snyder Homeowners' Association regarding finishing the basements with another bedroom and adding a bathroom. BACKGROUND: Snyder Park employee housing was approved in 1998 and was sold in March of 2000. The project consists of a total of 15 units - 6 three-bedroom units and 9 one-bedroom units. the one-bedroom units were originally going to be built for slab-oil-grade construction: however unfinished basements were added closer to construction. The project was approved with basements but that no additional bedrooms or bathrooms could be added. The major concern of the neighbors revolved around potential parking issues. The main issue for the owners has been that in order to access the bathroom in these one-bedroom units. a guest must go through the owner s bedroom. It has been the policy of the Housing Board that units be built with the ability for an owner to expand their unit. Providing unfinished basements is a good opportunity for an owner to do so. City Council requested additional information as follows: â€¢ APCHAk rental policy in roommate situations: â€¢ 1-low other units ill other complexes have been allowed to expand: â€¢ Inventory numbers that include the number of each size of unit within the City: and â€¢ Identification of any other category units in town that may have large unfinished basements at this time. APCHA will be bringing forward a change in the Guidelines for the BOCC and City Council to review relating to roommates. The niajor concern of the Housing Board and Staff has been if another person in the household owns other residential property within the Roaring Fork Drainage System. The policy would allow an owner of a deed restricted unit to rent a room to any individual as long as the person does not own any other residential property within the Roaring Fork Drainage Systemi however, such owner must be residing in the unit full-time and be a qualified employee. Income. assets, even employment, would not come into play for the roommate as the owner is the qualified "tenant. However, the rent that would be charged is limited. .. There have been other projects within the City and County that have the ability for expansion. Most of these contained lofts that were enclosed to make a second bedroom. Owners in Twin Ridge and Common Ground have created an office (bedroom) area. APCHA keeps the unit in the inventory as it was originally constructed. In other words. if enclosing a loft created another bedroom. this would be advertised as a one-bedroom unit plus an office. This allows for owners to expand their units as their families grow. or gives the ability for the owner to have a guest stay over and the inventory is not affected. A complete inventory has been provided to the Community Development Department and was distributed to City Council last year. As to any other units iii town that may have large unfinished basements, Staff is not aware of aiiy such units in the current inventory. RECOMMENDATION: The Housing Board and Staff highly recommend the approval of this request. 2 City of Aspen and Pitkin County Employee Housing October 31, 2005 Source: City of Aspen Community Development Department and the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority Ownership in City: Rental in City: Category 1|2|3|4| 5 | RO (not sorted by Type*) 132 Studio: 2 9 14 17 0 42 Studio: 247 One-Bedroom: 8 59 52 72 0 191 One-Bedroom: 217 Two-Bedroom: 3 27 28 150 1 209 Two-Bedroom: 412 .

ZONING: AH/PUD (Affordable Housing/PUD) LAND USE The Applicant is requesting approval of a PUD amendment to the REQUESTS: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD pursuant to the procedures established in Land Use Code Section 26.445.100(B), Amendment of PUD development order. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval with conditions. PLANNING AND The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended by a four to zero ZONING COMMISSION vote that the City Council approve with conditions, a PUD RECOMMENDATION: amendment to allow for the unfinished basements at Snyder Park to be finished. LAND USE ACTIONS REQUESTED: The Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD. City Council may approve, approve with conditions. or deny the PUD amendment request after considering a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100. Amendment of PUD Development Order. SUMMARY OF REQUEST AND BACKGROUND: The Applicant. Snyder Park Homeowner's Association, is requesting a PUD amendment to amend the PUD that was approved pursuant to Ordinance No. 24, Series of 1998 (provided in first reading packet). Snyder Park consists of fifteen (15) units in total: six 3-bedroom units and nine 1 -bedroom units. The Applicant would like to amend the PUD to allow for the unfinished basenients in eight (8) of the nine 1-bedroom units to be finished with a variety of room uses. including bathrooms. The ninth 1-bedroom unit is not proposed for expansion because it is -1- .. currently slab on grade construction. Originally, these units were approved to be built as slab-on-grade construction with no crawl spaces or basements. When the units were submitted for building permit. a crawl space was required to be constructed for egress purposes under each of the units. Subsequently during the excavation for the construction of the crawl spaces. the contractors ran into soils that were not good load bearing soils where the floor of the crawl spaces were to be built. In the end. the units were constructed with full-height. unfinished basements. Several of the units liave since finished their basements. but they have not been allowed to include bedroonis or bathrooms because of the possible impacts associated with adding bedrooms to the site. As part of the original application made by the Applicant. the possibility to add bedrooms to the basements to be finished was requested. However. the Planning and Zoning Commission felt that the ability to add bedrooms intended for sleeping purposes to the basements could exacerbate the parking problems that exist on Midland Avenue by allowing for more people to live within the development. As result of this concern. the Applicant revised their application to eliminate the request for bedrooms. STAFF COMMENTS: Iii reviewing the PUD amendment request, Staff feels that the flexibility that would be provided through this proposal allowing the 1-bedroom affordable housing units to finish their unfinished basements is a positive action. Staff feels that provisions for l111it expandability are important in the development of affordable housing projects in order to allow for unit owners to hold onto their units longer as their families grow and they proceed through different life stages. And in the long run, Staff believes that longer occupancy of affordable housing units creates neighborhood coherence and character that we seek in Aspen. The issue of unit expandability received considerable discussion during the recent review of the Burlingame Ranch Affordable Housing Project and the majority of City Council felt that it was appropriate to include provisions for unit expandability in the Burlingame project. Applying the same logic to the Snyder Park project that was constructed in 1998, the Planning Staff and the Housing Board support the proposed request. As far as traffic and parking impacts are concerned. Staff felt that the addition of a bedroom to each of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units as was originally requested would have had a minimal impact on both traffic and parking. The number of off-street parking spaces provided in the development is two (2) parking spaces for each of the units that contain two (2) or more bedrooms and one parking space for each of the units that currently contain one bedroom. Staff felt that the majority of the finished basement spaces that would result from this amendment would likely be used by people that already live in Snyder Park units and were not likely to create a significant increase in traffic or parking demand since they are in close proximity to the core of town and on an in-town bus route. Ilowever. the Planning and Zoning Commission indicated that providing for the possibility of adding an additional bedroom in each of the eight 1-bedroom units would -2- .. likely exacerbate the parking problems that exist on Midland Avenue. As a compromise the Planning and Zoning Commission expressed that it would be acceptable to allow for the unfinished basements to be fiiiished with a powderoom consisting of at most one toilet and one sink, but not allowing for the basements to include bedrooms as was originally requested. The Commission felt that allowing for the basements to be finished with room uses other than bedrooms would allow for the basement spaces to be used without likely increasing the number of people that live within the development. FIRST READING DISCUSSION: During first reading of the proposed ordinance. Councilman DeVilbiss requested that the language iii Condition No. 4 be changed to read that the rooms in the basement may include a powder room as long as the other rooms are not used for sleeping purposes. The condition as drafted iii the first reading ordinance stated that the rooms in the basement may include a powder room as long as the other rooms are not to be intended to be used fur sleeping purposes. Staff agrees that the slight change in language makes it clearer that the basements shall not be used for sleeping purposes. Several members of City Council also expressed that it would be difficult for Staff to enforce that the basements not be used as bedrooms if they are allowed to be finished. Iii response to this issue. Staff believes that the residents in Snyder Park have been very good at reporting violations in the past and policing their own neighborhood and complex. In several instances in the past, owners within the Snyder Park coniplex have turned other owners into the City for violations. Keep in mind that only about half of the units within the Snyder Park complex have basements that are subject to this amendment request, and Staff believes that the other owners within Snyder Park are not going to want to see these basements occupied by additional people who do not currently live within Snyder Park. That being said. Staff is of the opinion that if the use of these basements is getting abused, Staff will likely be made aware of such abuse and will have to do enforcement pursuant to our standard zoning enforcement policies. ~TAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that City Council approve the attached ordinance. approving the proposed PUD amendment with the conditions contained therein. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed tlie PUD amendment request and recommended that City Council approve the PUD amendment to allow for the unfinished basement spaces to be finished with room uses other than bedrooms and full bathrooms. The Planning and Zoning Commission's resolution and minutes were provided as attachments to the first reading niemorandum. 1 ..

EXHIBITA PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) AMENDMENT Review Criteria & Staff Findings ln accordance with Section 26.445 of the Land Use Code, the Applicants have requested a PLID Amendment. Section 26.445.050, Review Standards: PUD Amendment Section 26.445 of the Regulations provides that development applications for a PUD amendment must comply with the following standards and requirements. A. General Requirements. 1. The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with the affordable housing goals of the AACP. Staff feels that the amendment will allow for the homeowner's at Snyder Park to have the flexibility to occupy their units for the long-term and allow for the units to change with their different life stages allowing them to be vested members of the community as is encouraged by the Ilousing section of the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 2. The proposed development shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with character of the existing land uses in the immediate area. The proposed amendment will not change the exterior aesthetics of the units in that unfinished basements already exist with the necessary egress. Moreover, the units will continue to be family-oriented affordable housing units. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. The proposed development shall not adversely af.feet the future development of the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area in any manner. Thus, Staff finds this criterio11 not to be applicable to this application. 4. The proposed development has either been granted GMQS allotments, is exempt .from GMQS. or GMQS allotments are available to accommodate the proposed development and will be considered prior to, or in combination with, final PUD development plan review. -5- .. Staff Finding The Applicants have already received the needed GMQS exemptions to construct the affordable housing. a GMQS exemption is not needed to finish the basements. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable. B. Establishment of Dimensional Requirements: The.final PUD development plans shall establish the dimensional requirements.for all properties within the PUD. The dimensional requirements of the underlying zone district shall be used as a guide in determining the appropriate dimensions for the PUD. During review of the proposed dimensional requirements, compatibility with surrounding land uses and existing development patterns shali be emphasized. 1. The proposed dimensional requirements for the subject property are appropriate and compatible with the following intluences on the property: a) The character of, and compatibility with, existing and expected .future land uses in the surrounding area. b) Natural and man-made hazards. c) Existing natural characteristics of the property and surrounding area such as steep slopes, waterways, shade, and significant vegetation and landforms. d) Existing and proposed man-made characteristics of the property and the surrounding area such as noise, traffic, transit, pedestrian circulation, parking, and historical resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. The proposed dimensional requirements permit a scale, massing, and quantity of open space and site coverage appropriate and favorable to the character of the proposed PUD and of the surrounding area. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The appropriate number of offistreet parking spaces shall be established based on the.following considerations: a) The probable number of cars used by those using the proposed development including any non-residential lanel uses. b) The varying time periods of use, whenever joint use of common parking is proposed c) The availability of public transit and other transportation facilities, including those for pedestrian access and/or the commitment to utilize automobile disincentive techniques in the proposed development. -6- .. d) The proximity of the proposed development to the commercial core and general activity centers iii the city. Staff Finding As was discussed in the staff memo, Staff feels that many of the bedrooms that would be added to tile basements per the original request would have been occupied by people that already live within the development. Staff is further of the opinion that the close proximity of this development to town and to an in-city bus route encourages limited parking demand for the inhabitants of the development. Nonetheless, the Planning and Zoning Commission's compromise position not to allow additional bedrooms in the basement will not increase the parking demand of the site. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 4. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists insufficient infrastructure capabilities. Specilically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) There is not sufficient water pressure, drainage capabilities, or other utilities to service the proposed development. b) There are not adequate roads to ensure Jire protection, snow removal, and road maintenance to the proposed development. Staff Finding Staff has consulted the applicable utility agencies. who have expressed that the adequate infrastructure exists to accommodate the proposed amendments. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 5. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists natural hazards or critical natural site Â·features. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) Thelandis not suitable for theproposed development because of ground instability or the possibility of mudflow, rockfalls or avalanche dangers. b) The effects of tile proposed development are detrimental to the natural watershed, due to runoff, drainage, soil erosion, and consequent water pollution. c) The proposed development will have a pernicious effect on air quality in the surrounding area and the City. d) The design and location of any proposed structure, road, driveway, or trail in the proposed development is not compatible with the terrain or causes harmful disturbance to critical natural features of the site. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not alter the permitted density o f Un its approved in the original PUD. Additionally. the proposed amendment involves finishing livable space that is already incorporated within the subject buildings. Therefore. finishing the basements shall not have an impact on site drainage, soil erosion or consequential water pollution. The Applicant also is not requesting to amend the site layout so there -7- .. will not be impact on the natural features of the site. Staff finds this criterion to be niet. 6. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a significant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrounding development patterns and with the site's physical constraints. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goals of the community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan (AACP) or u specific area plan to which the property is subject. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics Of the site, as identified in subparagraphs 4 and 5, above, those areas can be avoided, or those characteristics mitigated. c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses, and characteristia Staff Finding As was discussed in the body of the staff memo, Staff feels that allowing for the eight (8) unfinished basement spaces to be finished fosters long-term occupancy of the affordable housing units, which builds neighborhood coherence and character as is encouraged by the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. B. Site Design: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the PUD enhances public spaces, is complimentary to the site'Â§ natural and man-made featurex and the adjacent public spaces, and ensures the public's health and safety. The proposed development shall comply with the following: 1. Existing natural or man-made fratures of the site which are unique, provide visual interest or a specific reference to the past, or contribute to the identity o.f the town are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts the site design of the project. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Structures have been clustered to appropriately preserve significant open spaces and vistas. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts open spaces or vistas on the site. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Structures are appropriately oriented to public streets, contribute to the urban or rural context where appropriate, and provide visual interest and engagement of vehicular and pedestrian movement. -8- .. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact the existing siting of structures on the parcel and will affect the extent to which the units are visually interesting. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. Buildings and access ways are appropriately arranged to allow emergency and service vehicle access. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the emergency and service vehicle access that was approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion riot to be applicable to this application. 5. Adequate pedestrian and handicapped access is provided. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the pedestrian and handicapped access that was approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 6. Site drainage is accommodated for the proposed development in a practical and reasonable manner and shall not negatively impact surrounding properties. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact the site drainage since the amendment will only impact interior space that is already built. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 7. Vor non-residential land uses, spaces between buildings are appropriately de-signed to accommodate any programmatic Â·functions associated with the 1/Xe. Staff Finding There are no non-residential land uses proposed as part of this amendment and no non- residential uses exist within the subject development. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. C. Landscape Plan: The purpose Of this standard is to ensure compatibility of the proposed landscape with the visual character of the city, with surrounding parcels, and with existing and proposed leatures o.f the subject property. The proposed development shall comply with the following: -9- .. 1. The landscape plan exhibits a well designed treatment of exterior spaces, preserving existing significant vegetation, and provides an ample quantity and variety of ornamenta[ plant species suitable for the Aspen area climate. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the landscaping plan that was approved in relation to the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Significant existing natural and man-made site Jeatures, which provide uniqueness and interest in the landscape, are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the existing natural or man-made site features any more than the original development plan. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The proposed method of protecting existing vegetation and other landscape features is appropriate. Staff Finding The site s landscaping will not be impacted by the proposed amendment. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. D. Architectural Character: It is the purpose Of this standard to encourage architectural intelÂ·est, variety, character, and visual identity in the proposed development and within the City while promoting efficient use of resources. Architectural character is based upon the suitability of ci building for its purposes, legibility Of the building's use, the building's proposed massing, proportion, scale, orientation to public spaces and other buildings, use of materials, and other attributes which may significantly represent the character of the proposed development. There shall be approved as part of the jinal development plan and architectural character plan, which adequately depicts the character of the proposed development. The proposed architecture of the development shall: 1. be compatible with or enhance the visual character O.f the citr, appropriately relate to existing and proposed architecture of the property, represent a character suitablefor, and indicative of, the intended use, and respect the scale and massing of nearby historical and cultural resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not alter the architecture and exterior design o f the units in that the amendment is only requesting to finish interior space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. -10- .. 2. Incorporate, to the extent practical, natural heating and cooling by taking advantage of the property's solar access, shade, and vegetation and by use of non- or less-intensive mechanical systems. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not alter the extent to which the units incorporate natural heating and cooling systems. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Accommodate the storage and shielding of snow, ice. and water in a sate an appropriate manner that does not require significant maintenance. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the ability at which the development accommodates the shielding of snow, ice. and water in that the proposed amendment simply requests to finish interior space that already exists. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. E. Lighting: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the exterior ofthe development will be lighted in an appropriate manner considering both public safety and general aesthetic concerns. The following standards shall be accomplished: 1. All lighting is proposed No as to prevent direct glare or hazardous interference of any king to adjoining streets or lands. Lighting of site features, structures, and access ways is proposed in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding The original PUD requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development' s compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. All exterior lighting shall be in compliance with the Outdoor Lighting Standards unlexs otherwise approved and noted in the final PUD documents. Up-lighting of site features, buildings, landscape elements, and lighting to call inordinate attention to the property is prohibited for residential development. Staff Finding The original PUD requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development's compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. G. Common Park, Open Space, or Recreation Area: 4 the proposed development includes a common park, open space, or recreation area for the mutual benefit of all development in the proposed PUD, the following criteria shall be met: -11- .. 1.

A proportionate, undivided interest in all common park and recreation areas is deeded in perpetuity (not .for a number of years) to each lot or dwelling unit owner within the PUD or ownership is proposed in a similar manner. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the project's compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. There is proposed an adequate assurance through legal instrument for the permanent care and maintenance of open spaces, recreation areas, and shared facilities together with a deed restriction against future residential, commercial, or industrial development.

A Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2005 2:05 PM Subject: 210 Midland Ave, Aspen, Co SVYÂ© 2.6.- eve(glÂ£. eu Â© D 2-1 elof J Dear Mr. Lindt, U 4,1? A j pr We received the Public Notice regarding the SNYDER PARK PUD AMENDMENT. We own the property at 211 Midland Ave, directly across from Snyder Park. Please inform us of the procedure to object to this Amendment since we will not be able to attend the public hearing. We strongly object to the increase in finished space. This will allow additional occupancy without additional parking. The Snyder development currently has more cars per occupant than can be parked inside the complex and that does not address visitors. The current parking situation at Snyder development is causing problems for us at 211 Midland. Cars belonging to the occupants and visitors are parked in violation of the parking restrictions for the street of 2 hour limits for park use. They are NOT using the park and they are way beyond the two hours. (Days beyond at times) It is almost impossible to get out of our driveway in the winter and difficult in the summer. The posted parking signs are being ignored and the police NEVER enforce the two hour parking limit, while using the Park. The Police only act after phone calls informing them the car has been parked for longer than a few days. What is the FAR for these units at Snyder? It seems to us that they probably have maxed the allowed FAR at time of original construction. PARKING IS A MAJOR PROBLEM, IN THE WINTER when owners/occupants/visitors from SNYDER DEVELOPMENT park their CARS OVERNIGHT AND IT SNOWS. THE STREET CANNOT BE CLEANED BY SNOWPLOWS CAUSING ICING AND THEREFORE MAJOR SLIDING PROBLEMS FOR ACCESS TO OUR DRIVEWAY. MORE BEDROOMS WILL EQUATE TO MORE CARS AND THEREFORE, WE STRONGLY OBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THIS AMENDMENT. We realize everyone would like more space in Aspen to accommodate more friends and family (or renters) but every lucky person who was able to purchase in Snyder Park knew the limitations of their great investment. If it is too small for them they need to sell to someone with less space needs. Thank you for the assistance.

Senior Plannei)-L â€¢ Nt RE: Snyder Park Affordable Housing Project PUD Amendment, 1 Reading of Ordinance 303â‚¬>, Series of 2005, Public Hearing to be held on September 26,2005 DATE: August 22,2005 PROJECT: SNYDER PARK PUD AMENDMENT REQUEST: The Applicant is requesting a PUD amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD to allow for the unfinished basements on the one-bedroom units to be finished with a variety of room uses, including bathrooms. ZONING: AH/PUD (Affordable Housing/PUD) LAND USE The Applicant is requesting approval of a PUD amendment to the REQUESTS: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD pursuant to the procedures established in Land Use Code Section 26.445.100(B), Amendment of PUD development order. STAFF Staff recommends approval with conditions. RECOMMENDATION: PLANNING AND The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended by a four to zero ZONING COMMISSION vote that the City Council approve with conditions, a PUD RECOMMENDATION: amendment to allow for the unfinished basements at Snyder Park to be finished. LAND USE ACTIONS REQUESTED: The Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD. City Council may approve, approve with conditions, or deny the PUD amendment request after considering a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100, Amendment of PUD Development Order. SUMMARY OF REQUEST AND BACKGROUND: The Applicant. Snyder Park Homeowner's Association, is requesting a PUD amendment to amend the PLID that was approved pursuant to Ordinance No. 24, Series of 1998 (attached as Exhibit "D"). Snyder Park consists of fifteen (15) units in total: six 3- bedroom units and nine 1 -bedroom units. The Applicant would like to amend the PUD to allow for the unfinished basements in eight (8) of the nine 1 -bedroom units to be finished with a variety of room uses. including -1- . bathrooms. The ninth 1-bedroom unit is not proposed for expansion because it is currently slab on grade construction. Originally, these units were approved to be built as slab-on-grade construction with no crawl spaces or basements. However. when the units came in for building permit, a crawl space was required to be constructed for egress purposes under each of the units. Subsequently during the excavation for the construction of the crawl spaces, the contractors ran into soils that were not good load bearing soils where the floor of the crawl spaces were to be built. In the end, the units were constructed with full-height. unfinished basements. Several of the units have since finished their basements, but they have not been allowed to include bedrooms or bathrooms because of the possible impacts associated with adding bedrooms to the site. As part of the original application made by the Applicant, the possibility to add bedrooms to the basements to be finished was requested. However. the Planning and Zoning Commission felt that the ability to add bedrooms intended for sleeping purposes to the basements would possibly exacerbate the parking problems that exist on Midland Avenue by allowing for more people to live within the development. As result of this concern. the Applicant revised their application to eliminate the request for bedrooms. ~TAFF COMMENTS: In reviewing the PUD amendment request, Staff feels that the tlexibility that would be provided through this proposal allowing the 1-bedroom affordable housing units to finish their unfinished basements is a positive action. As the application asserts, Staff feels that provisions for unit expandability are important in the development of affordable housing projects in order to allow for unit owners to hold onto their units longer as their families grow and they proceed through different life stages. And in the long run, Staff believes that longer occupancy of affordable housing units builds neighborhood coherence and character that we seek in Aspen. Tlie issue of unit expandability received considerable discussion during the recent review of the Burlingame Affordable Housing Prqject and the majority of City Council felt that it was appropriate to include provisions for unit expandability in the Burlingame project. Applying the same logic to the Snyder Park project that was constructed in 1998. the Planning Staff and the Ilousing Board support the proposed request. As far as traffic and parking impacts are concerned, Staff felt that the addition of a bedroom to each of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units as was originally requested would have had a minimal impact on both traffic and parking. The number of off-street parking spaces provided in the development is two (2) parking spaces for each of the units that contain two (2) or more bedrooms and one parking space for each of the units that currently contain one bedroom. Staff felt that the majority of the finished basement spaces that would result from this amendment would likely be used by people that already live in Snyder Park units and were not likely to create a significant increase in traffic or parking demand since they are in close proximity to the core of town and on an in-town bus route. -2- .. However, the Planning and Zoning Commission indicated that providing for the possibility of adding an additional bedroom in each of the eight 1-bedroom Units would likely exacerbate the parking problems that exist on Midland Avenue. As a compromise. the Planning and Zoning Commission expressed that it would be acceptable to allow for the unfinished basements to be finished with a powderoom consisting of at most one toilet and one sink. but not allowing for the basements to include bedrooms as was originally requested. The Commission felt that allowing for the basements to be finished with room uses other than bedrooms would allow for the basement spaces to be used without likely increasing the number of people that live within the development. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that City Council approve the attached ordinance, approving the proposed PUD amendment with the conditions contained therein. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the PUD amendment request and recommended that City Council approve the PUD amendment to allow for the unfinished basement spaces to be finished with room uses other than bedrooms and full bathrooms. The Planning and Zoning Commission's resolution is attached as Exhibit "F" and the meeting minutes are attached as Exhibit "G' CIT~MANAGER'S COMMENTs: < ~c-..Â·:Â»Â£,660.uÂ£.3 6**,rtevo--2 01 44#ff O-Â£70 - (2~12Â·â‚¬(..IJAilk.-,4.Ct- A,d~ f/24 te-,u-2.fu-22 Y.<,34~ .<--2 4Â¥01 6-~ttlic#*c.< RECOMMENDED MOTION: 1 move to approve Ordinance No.JU, Series of 2005 upon first reading, approving with conditions. the requested PUD amendment to allow for the eight (8) 1-bedroom affordable housing units (ADA 1 -bedroom unit not included) in the Snyder park Affordable Housing PUD to finish their basements with room uses other than bedrooms and full bathrooms: ATTACHMENTS EYHIBIT A- REVIEW CRITERIA AND STAFF FINDINGS E\HIBIT B -APPLICAV ION EXHIBIT C - REFERRAL COMMENTS EXHIBITD - ORDINANCE NO. 24, SERIES 017 1998 EYHIBIT E - LETTERS FROM THE PUBLIC EXHIBIT F - PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RESOLUTION EXHIBIT G-P&Z MINLITES -3- ORDINANCE NO.~> (SERIES OF 2005) AN ORDINANCE OF THE ASPEN CITY COUNCIL APPROVING A PUD AMENDMENT TO THE SNYDER PARK AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT TO ALLOW FOR UNFINISHED BASEMENTS TO BE CONVERTED TO LIVABLE SPACE AND FINISHED, CITY OF ASPEN, PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO.

ExilIBIT A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) AMENDMENT Review Criteria & Staff Findings In accordance with Section 26.445 of the Land Use Code, the Applicants have requested a PUD Amendment. Section 26.445.050, Review Standards: PUD Amendment Section 26.445 of the Regulations provides that development applications for a PUD amendment must comply with the following standards and requirements. A. General Requirements. 1. The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with the affordable housing goals of the AACP. Staff feels that the amendment will allow for the homeowner's at Snyder Park to have the flexibility to occupy their units for the long-term and allow for the units to change with their different life stages allowing them to be vested members of the community as is encouraged by the Housing section of the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 2. The proposed development shall be consistent with the character Of existing land uses in the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed aniendment is consistent with character of the existing land uses in the immediate area. The proposed amendment will not change the exterior aesthetics of the units in that unfinished basements already exist with the necessary egress. Moreover, the units will continue to be family-oriented affordable housing units. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. The proposed development shall not adversely affect the Â·future development ofthe surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area in any manner. Thus, Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. The proposed development has either been granted GMQS allotments, is exempt .from GMQS, or GMQS allotments are available to accommodate the proposed development and will be considered prior to, or in combination with,.final PUD development plan review. -4- .. Staff Finding The Applicants have already received the needed GMQS exemptions to construct the affordable housing. a GMQS exemption is not needed to finish the basements. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable. B. Establishment o.t Dimensional Requirements: The.final PUD development plans shall establish the dimensional requirements.for all properties within the PUD. The dimensional requirements o.f the underlying zone district shaN be used as a guide in determining the appropriate dimensions for the PUD. During review of the proposed dimensional requirements, compatibility with surrounding land uses and existing development patterns shall be emphasized. 1. The proposed dimensional requirements .for the subject property are appropriate and compatible with the following injluences on the property: a) The character of, and compatibility with, existing and expected j uture land uses in the surrounding area. b) Natural and man-made hazards. c) Existing natural characteristics of the property and surrounding area such as sleep slopes, waterways, shade, and significant vegetation and land.torms. d) Existing and proposed man-made characteristics of the property and the surrounding area ruch as noise, traf.tic, transit, pedestrian circulation, parking, and historical resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. The proposed dimensional requirements permit a scale, massing, and quantity of open space and site coverage appropriate and .favorable to the character o.f the proposed PUD and of the surrounding area. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The appropriate number of off-street parking spaces shall be established based on the following considerations: a) The probable number of cars used by those using the proposed development including any non-residential land uses. b) The varying time periods of use, whenever joint use of common parking is proposed c) The availability of public transit and other transportation facilities, including those for pedestrian access and/or the commitment to utilize automobile disincentive techniques in the proposed development. -5- .. d) The proximity of the proposed development to the commercial core and general activity centers in the city. Staff Finding As was discussed in the staff memo. Staff feels that many of the bedrooms that would be added to the basements per the original request would have been occupied by people that already live within the development. Staff is further of the opinion that the close proximity of this development to town and to an in-city bus route encourages limited parking demand for the inhabitants of the development. Nonetheless, the Planning and Zoning Commission' s compromise position not to allow additional bedrooms in the basement will not increase the parking demand of the site. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 4. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists insufficient infrastructure capabilities. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) There is not sufficient water pressure, drainage capabilities, or other utilities to service the proposed development. b) There are not adequate roads to ensure Jire protection, snow removal, cind road maintenance to the proposed development. Staff Finding Staff has consulted the applicable utility agencies, who have expressed that the adequate infrastructure exists to accommodate the proposed amendments. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 5. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists natural hazards or critical natural site features. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) The land is not suitable for the proposed development because of ground instability or the possibility of mudflow, rockfalls or avalanche dangers. b) The effects of the proposed development are detrimental to the natural watershed, due to runoff, drainage, soil erosion, and consequent water pollution. c) The proposed development will have a pernicious ef.fect on air quality in the surrounding area and the City. d) The design and location of any proposed structure, road, driveway, or trail in the proposed development is not compatible with the terrain or causes harmful disturbance to critical natural features of the site. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not alter the permitted density of units approved in the original PLID. Additionally, the proposed amendment involves finishing livable space that is already incorporated within the subject buildings. Therefore. finishing the basements shall not have an impact on site drainage, soil erosion or consequential water pollution. The Applicant also is not requesting to amend the site layout so there -6- .. will not be impact on the natural features of the site. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 6. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a significant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrouniting development patterns and with the site's physical constraints. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goals of the community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan (AACP) or a specific area plan to which the property is subject. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics of the site, as identified in subparagraphs 4 and 5, above, those areas can be avoided, or those characteristics mitigated. c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses, and characteristics. Staff Finding As was discussed in the body of the staff memo, Staff feels that allowing for the eight (8) unfinished basement spaces to be finished fosters long-term occupancy of the affordable housing units, which builds neighborhood coherence and character as is encouraged by the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. B. Site Design: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the PUD enhances public spaces, is complimentary to the site's natural and man-made features and the adjacent public spaces, and ensures the public's health and safety. The proposed development shall comply with the.following: 1. Existing natural or man-made features of the site which are unique, provide visual interest or a specific reference to the past, or contribute to the identity Of the town are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts the site design of the project. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Structures have been clustered to appropriately preserve significant open spaces and vistas. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts open spaces or vistas on the site. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Structures are appropriately oriented to public streets, contribute to the urban or rural context where appropriate, and provide visual interest und engagement of vehicular and pedestrian movement. -7- .. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact the existing siting of structures on the parcel and will affect the extent to which the units are visually interesting. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. Buildings and access ways are appropriately arranged m allow emergency and service vehicle access. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the emergency and service vehicle access that was approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 5. Adequate pedestrian und handicapped access is provided. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the pedestrian and handicapped access that was approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 6. Site drainage is accommodated for the proposed development in a practical and reasonable manner and shall not negatively impact surrounding properties. Staff Finding -[lie proposed amendment will not impact the site drainage since the amendment will only impact interior space that is already built. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 7. For non-residential land uses, spaces between buildings are appropriately de-signed m accommodate any programmatic functions associated with the tise. Staff Finding There are no non-residential land uses proposed as part of this amendment and no non- residential uses exist within the subject development.

The proposed development shall comply with the following: -8- -. 1. The landscape plan exhibits a well designed treatment of exterior rpaces. preserving existing significant vegetation, and provides an ample quantity and variety of ornamental plant species suitable for the Aspen area climate. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the landscaping plan that was approved iii relation to the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Significant existing natural and man-made sitefeatures, which provide uniqueness and interest in the landscape, are preserved or enhanced iii an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the existing natural or man-made site features any more than the original development plan. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The proposed method of protecting exi'sting vegetation and other landscape .features is appropriate. Staff Finding The site's landscaping will not be impacted by the proposed amendment. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. D. Architectural Character: ft is the purpose of this standard to encourage architectural interest, variety, character, and visual identity in the proposed development and within the City while promoting efficient use of resources. Architectural character is based upon the suitability of a building for its purposes, legibility of the building's use, the building's proposed massing, proportion, scale, orientation to public xpaces and other buildings, use Of materials, and other attributes which may significantly represent the character of the proposed development. There shall be approved as part of the final development plan and architectural character plan, which adequately depicts the character of the proposed development. The proposed architecture of the development shall: 1. be compatible with or enhance the visual character of tile city, appropriately relate to existing and proposed architecture of the property, represent a character suitable for, and indicative of,- the intended use, and respect the scale and massing of nearby historical and cultural resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not alter the architecture and exterior design of the units in that the amendment is only requesting to finish interior space. Staff finds this criterion iiot to be applicable to this application. -9- .. 2. Incorporate, to the extent practical, natural heating and cooling by taking advantage o.f the property's solar access, shade, and vegetation and by uxe of non- or less-intensive mechanical systems. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not alter the extent to which the units incorporate natural heating and cooling systems. Staff finds tliis criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Accommodate the storage and shielding of snow, ice, and water in a safe an appropriate manner that does not require significant maintenance. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the ability at which the development accommodates the shielding of snow, ice, and water in that the proposed amendment simply requests to finish interior space that already exists. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. E. Lighting: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the exterior of the development will be lighted in an appropriate manner considering both public safety and general aesthetic concerns. Thefollowing standards shall be accomplished: 1. All lighting is proposed so as to prevent direct glare or hazardous interference of any king to adjoining streets or lands. Lighting of site features, structures, and access ways is proposed in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding The original PLID requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development's compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. All exterior lighting shall be in compliance with the Outdoor Lighting Standards unless otherwise approved and noted in the -final PUD documents. Up-lighting of site features, buildings, landscape elements, and lighting to call inordinate attention to the property is prohibited for residential development. Staff Finding The original PUD requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development's compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. G. Common Park, Open Space, or Recreation Area: If the proposed development includes a common park, open space, or recreation area for the mutual benefit of all development in the proposed PUD, the.following criteria shall be met: - 10 - .. 1. The proposed amount, location, and design of the common park, open space, mÂ· recreation area enhances the character of the proposed development, considering existing and proposed structures and natural landscape .features of the property, provides visual relief to the property's built .form, and is available to the mutual benefit O.f the various land uses and property users ofthe PUD.

CD O -1 Re: Snyder Park PUD Amendment R c 00 m 00 02& 392 Dear Sirs and Madams, * Vt Q. CD Rowland + Broughton Architecture and Urban Design is representing the homeownefs at Snyder 00 3 W Park Affordable Housing Planned Unit Development in seeking a PUD Amendment. (g g 2 5Â» O= P C.) Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD was approved in 1998. It has since been built with (15) 8 3 affordable housing units, (6) three-bedroom units and (9) one-bedroom units. The one-bedroom 3.. units were all built with unfinished basements and window wells for egress. The plans originally called for slab on grade construction; however basements were added closer to construction. 9 1Â£ The owners of the one-bedroom units are interested in being able to fit-out their unfinished 4 e basements into a variety of uses. These uses include: home offices, playrooms, storage, bedrooms and bathrooms. Under the current approved PUD, additional bedrooms and bathrooms are not allowed. This application is asking for a PUD Amendment to allow the homeowners at Snyder Park the option to convert existing, unfinished basement space into a variety of different uses, including the possibility of a bedroom and bathroom. The review standards relevant to this application are the land use code for Planned Unit Development, Chapter 26.445. Specifically for our PUD Amendment, the following items apply: 26.445.050.A.1- The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Allowing for an additional bedroom and bathroom to be developed in the unfinished basements at Snyder Park directly relates to the goal of Aspen's affordable housing program to build community. Our community is based on a healthy mix of people, who can call Aspen home. Flexibility is a key component in creating the mix of people. Young people move to Aspen, often find a partner and possibly start a family. Our housing needs to allow for the flexibility of life and encourage roots to be established. 26.445.050.A.2- The proposed development shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area. The east side of town is residential and is going through a major redevelopment. As house prices soar, more locals are forced out of the City. By allowing for an additional bedroom and bathroom to be developed in the unfinished basements, homeowners at Snyder Park will have more options to remain in residency in the City. The option to develop the unfinished basements gives the homeowner the ability to add value to their property all within the Housing Department's guidelines. lofZ nsdb~ought 10307 , coÂ°rer stree#t aspen co 970.544.9006 Â·. f 9~0 .. Snyder Park PUD Amendment Application 26.445.050.8.6- The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a significant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrounding development patterns and with the site's physical constraints. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goals of the community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics of the site c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses and characteristics. This PUD Amendment meets all of the conditions mentioned above. Through many conversations with both the City of Aspen Housing Board and City of Aspen Community Development, we strongly believe that by adopting a PUD Amendment to allow for the development of the unfinished basements at Snyder Park takes us further to the goal of flexible, diverse and balanced affordable housing. We welcome any conversation or questions regarding this application. Thank you, Sarah Broughton, AIA Cc: Snyder Park Homeowners 2 of 2 m--1~-EX 1 'C 1 ASPEN Slal Meq: White St. .

BACKGROUND: Snyder Park employee housing was approved in 1998 and was sold in March of 2000. The project consists of a total of 15 units - 6 three-bedroom units and 9 one-bedroom units. The one-bedroom units were originally going to be built for slab-on-grade construction; however, unfinished basements were added closer to construction. The project was approved with basements but that no additional bedrooms or bathrooms could be added. The major concern revolved around potential parking issues. lt has been the policy of the Housing Board that units be built with the ability for ali owner to expand their unit. Providing unfinished basements is a good opportunity for an owner to do so. RECOMMENDATION: The Housing Board and Staff highly recommend the approval of this request.

We are property owners across the street from Snyder Park at 215 Midland Avenue. We object to the amendment to increase their finished space due to the fact that by allowing this project to increase the size of their homes, it will certainly create additional parking problems for not only the residents who live at Snyder Park, but the neighbors as well. The parking directly across from our Aspen home is always being used by either the residents who live in Snyder Park or people who commute, using this parking area for their meeting place. The autos, as well as trucks with trailers monopolize the parking spaces, sometimes for several days without moving them. There is no regard for the posted parking restrictions or the enforcement thereof. The snowplows cannot clean that portion of Midland Avenue and it becomes a hazard in the winter time. Kindly note our objection at the meeting since we will not be able to attend. This email can be entered into the record and we would appreciate you doing so.

July 4,2005 Planning and Zoning Commission City of Aspen 130 South Galena Street Aspen, CO 81611 Subject: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD Amendment I am writing to express my concern about the proposed conversion of the basement areas of the one bedroom units in Snyder Park Affordable Housing, making those units into two bedroom units. A significant number of the residents of the surrounding neighborhoods participated in an approximately three year review process with the Housing Authority, City of Aspen advisory boards, and the City Council prior to the approval and implementation of the current PUD. Before establishing the current density of the development, there was significant analysis and study of many potential scenarios, of their impact on the development itself, and on the surrounding neighborhoods. That plan provided for a reasonable balance of new housing density as measured against other neighborhood impacts. To put that process into perspective, it is interesting to note that Snyder Park was one of the few projects that ever received solid neighborhood support when submitted to City Council for approval. During the years since approval, we have seen that some of the development goals were met, but we underestimated the need for off-street parking. This can be readily observed by the number of vehicles associated with Snyder Park which are regularly parked along Midland Avenue. I also believe that this application proposes a precedent inconsistent with the reputation and credibility of the Housing Authority. Neighbors and residents of affordable housing should have the assurance that the approved density will not be subject to significant modification once the projects are developed and purchased by residents. By my calculations this would constitute a 33% increase in the number of bedrooms at Snyder Park. I expect there are residents in other than one-bedroom units who may not feel free to voice their objection because of the potential for neighborhood conflict. The notice for this application does not indicate how many additional parking spaces are proposed to accommodate the increased number of residents. This increase in residents may not occur immediately, but certainly will in the future. In summary, I believe that the proposed PUD amendment should be denied, as it will produce a development density in excess of that planned for this location, and will set a precedent that is highly undesirable. Likely, the next amendment would be to convert garages to bedrooms or other living space, thus creating additional impacts.

Galena Aspen, CO 81611 RE: Snyder Park PUD To Whom It May Concern: 1 would like to extend my support to the homeowners at Snyder Park to amend the existing PUD to allow the basements of the one-bedroom units to be remodeled to include a bedroom and bath. As one of the architects on the project and a neighbor, I feel this modification should not impact the intent of our affordable housing program nor the neighborhood. The Housing Authority approved the addition of basements to these one-bedroom units to locate the mechanical and plumbing equipment and for desperately needed storage space. Due to code requirements, these basements already have an adequate egress window meeting light and ventilation requirements for a potential bedroom. It is my recollection that only three out of the nine one-bedroom units have access off the living rooms into the bathroom. All the other units require any guest to go through the bedroom to use the bathroom. In speaking to Antoinette LaFontaine (a one-bedroom homeowner), she has assured me that this modification is strictly for the convenience to guests and would not require additional parking. All of the current homeowners are original, and their requirements have evolved either from marriage, visiting grandchildren, etc. My belief if someone were to try and rent out their basement, the homeowner's association board would get wind of this immediately and put out notice to the offending homeowner. Thank you for the opportunity to support the passage of this PUD amendment. Very truly yours, dÂ» 804 9-441tk. 61-juLA- Heidi H. Hoffmann AIA .. Heidi H. Hoffmann AIA H3 Architects 504 Midland Pk.

As a neighbor and associate architect on the project, this amendment should not impact the intent of the affordable housing program to provide for one-bedroom housing nor automobile parking on Midland Avenue. That being said, I would encourage the Snyder Park homeowners to strictly monitor their own parking situation and be responsive to their neighbor' s parking and driving concerns. The issue of current parking spots not being used for their intended use needs to be addressed by the homeowners themselves. Thank you for the opportunity to support the passage of this PUD amendment. Very truly yours. Heidi H. Hoffmann AIA r-~ , 'l j . .

APPROVED AS TO FORM: PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: City Attorney Jasmine Tygre, Chair ATTEST: .Jackie Lothian, Deputy City Clerk . 824)13)7 \41 ASPEN PLANNINV& ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes - Julv 19,2005 Jasmine Tygre opened the regular Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting in Council Chambers at 4:30 p.m. Commission Members Brian Speck, Brandon Marion, Dylan Johns, Steve Skadron and Jasmine Tygre were present. Ruth Kruger and John Rowland were excused. Staff in attendance were Jenni fer Phelan, Chris Bendon and James Lindt, Community Development and Jackie Lothian, Deputy City Clerk. COMMENTS Steve Skadron complimented the city on the signage on the pathways in town. Jasmine Tygre asked if the Zupancis property was purchased with housing funds. Joyce Allgaier would look into it. Tygre stated that was an excellent location for infill housing. DECLARATION OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST John Rowland rescued himself on the Snyder Affordable Housing PUD Amendment and the Hyman Avenue Condominiums, Subdivision and GMOS. CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING (07/05/05): SNYDER AFFORDABLE HOUSING PUD AMENDMENT Jasmine Tygre opened the public hearing for the Snyder Affordable Housing PUD th Amendment. Notice was provided at the July 5 public hearing. James Lindt stated this was a public hearing to finish out 8 of the 1-bedroom unit basements. P&Z is the recommending body to City Council. Lindt said the background on the project was constructing 15 Affordable Housing Units on the East side of Midland Avenue; 6 3-bedroom units and 9 1-bedroom units. The 1-bedroom units were originally approved with slab-on-grade construction however when they got into building permit review the building department required crawl spaces under the units. When the contractor began digging the crawl spaces the soil problems were found and full basements were dug to eliminate the soil problems; the basements have been unfinished to this point. Lindt said the Homeowners Association is requesting the ability to finish these basements with a variety of room uses. Staff felt it important to have the expandability options for some of these affordable housing units; it allows unit owners to maintain their units through different life stages. Lindt noted there were a number of letters from neighbors with concerns about the parking and traffic on Midland Avenue. Staff proposed a condition that these basements would be limited to 1 additional bedroom per unit partially because there is only one egress well and it limits the impacts of parking. Staff recommended approval. 2 ASPEN PLANNI~& ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes - July 19, 2005 Sarah Broughton stated she represented Snyder Park and Dan Glick said he was one of the 1 -bedroom owners. Broughton said last fall they looked at developing several ofthe basements for several of the homeowners and it became evident that this was not part of the PUD. Broughton said this went back to the Aspen Area Community Plan to add more housing stock and the Housing Board was 100% behind finishing the basements. Broughton stated that 8 of the 9 1-bedroom units th have the ability to expand; the 9 unit was slab-on-grade with a garage. Broughton said they agree with the conditions and no cooking facilities would be placed in the basements so the basements could not be rented as an additional unit and the units would remain as 1-bedroom units in the housing inventory. Dan Glick provided the history of Snyder beginning with the lottery process and the units were ready to be moved into in February 2000; he said there were 850 applicants for the 15 units. Glick said 5 96 years later no one has moved out or is planning on moving out; he said it was a great community and an awesome place to live. Glick stated that he videoed the parking situation. Glick explained on the map where the 8 1-bedroom unit owners park and the 3-bedroom unit owners have 2-car garages. Glick saw 4 Snyder Park residents cars on Midland. Steve Skadron asked if it was Dan's contention that Midland Avenue was not over parked. Glick said no but the construction traffic and people park over 2 hours in the 2 hour zone plus it was not well policed. Skadron asked who determined the amount of parking available on the streets. Lindt replied the City Engineer and the Streets Department determine the adequacy and safety. Skadron asked if there were concerns. Lindt responded that Jerry Nye from Streets said there was a little trouble plowing there in the winter because of parked cars. Skadron asked why in the original Ordinance #24,1998 wasn't expandability included. Tygre responded that it was never even brought up at P&Z. Skadron asked how the improvement affects the value ofthe property over time. Lindt replied there was a cap either way because they were affordable housing units and even with the improvements the units would be considered 1 -bedrooms. Lindt stated there was a condition in the resolution allowing a 10% cap for the improvements. Skadron asked what slab-on-grade means. Broughton answered it was a way to build a foundation with a gravel base with 4-5 inch concrete pad without a crawl space or basement underneath. Brandon Marion asked the parking requirement if the project were built today with 8 2-bedroom units instead of 1 -bedroom units. Lindt replied that it would increase by 1 space per unit. 3 ASPEN PLANNI~& ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes - Julv 19, 2005 Dylan Johns asked if any other studies have been done to add parking to this site. Lindt said the applicants have looked at that and staff also did separately. Staff would not like to see a loss of the courtyard area for additional parking. Broughton said that more parking could be planned in but it was a delicate balance with the open space area so important to this project; it would cost pal-t of the park. The commissioners further discussed parking within the realm of limiting the amount of available parking or not allowing more than 1 car per 1-bedroom unit; the enforcement issue; limiting parking stickers; more signs; the applicant become responsible for policing the cars from Snyder owners. Skadron asked the profiles of the people living at Snyder. Glick replied that all of the 1 -bedrooms were single people except for the one that got married; the 3- bedrooms units were families or starting families. Johns asked if it was possible to say that you can inhabit the space but not with a bedroom and was that enforceable. Lindt replied that could happen and it also could be enforced. Lindt explained the building code requirements stated a bedroom had a closet and direct access to a bathroom. Lindt said that the building department would be made aware if someone were living in the basements by the other owners. Public Comments: 1. Heidi Hoffman said that she was the co-architect on the Snyder project; she provided a letter to the commission. Hoffman said that she was in favor of the PUD Amendment even though Midland Avenue was an issue but agreed with Dan that people park on Midland from someplace else. Hoffman said the mechanical was to go into the basements. 2. Lassie Dahl worked on the project for 3 years and supported it. Dahl said this amendment was now inconsistent with the reputation and creditability of the housing authority. Dahl would like to see Snyder Park maintained at the same status and questioned the homeowners policing the parking and the units. Dahl said she understood a lot of the traffic was construction traffic. Dahl voiced concern for the additional parking on the site and the addition of a bathroom. 3. Steve Hawk said that he lived in the adjacent subdivision, Smuggler Grove, and was in favor ofthe project. Hawk said that he attended monthly meetings for 36 months on Snyder and part of the discussions were how many bedrooms there would be; parking was part of the problem and was not enforced. Hawk said this degrades the integrity of the housing authority to have a 1 -bedroom and without 4 ASPEN PLANNI~& ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes - July 19, 2005 changing the qualifications of the purchasers and they now have 2-bedroom units. Hawk said this would increase the density and add more cars. 4. Nancy Snell stated she lived on the corner of Midland and Hopkins; she said that it was a long 3 years working on the project with both sides winning and losing. Snell said that was what they fought for was not to have cars parked there; the issue of 1 -bedrooms was a big issue. Snell said where there is a bedroom there is a car; she would like to stick with the formula that was agreed upon. Dylan Johns stated that there were serious issues allowing the ability of bedroom to be added to the basement level of the buildings from both the planning standpoint of tile overall neighborhood. Johns said however the space is there and asked if it is possible to prohibit the ability to utilize that space as a bedroom; the conditions make the issue strange calling it a 1-bedroom or a 2-bedroom. Johns would be in favor of allowing an amendment to the PUD to allow the basement spaces to be used but not as a bedroom. Brandon Marion said this was his favorite housing project and he also respected the neighborhood issues. Marion said to change the PUD now was not a good idea; people who bought the 1 -bedroom units knew what they were buying. Marion said it seemed as if the whole project were under parked. Marion said he would not approve without seeing a plan for living space but not a bedroom. Brian Speck said that he was of the like mindi at one hand life does change and flexibility is needed however there were agreements made originally. Speck said the cars were the issue and maybe the parking needed to be on the site. Steve Skadron said that initially he wanted to honor the original ordinance and shared Brandon's concerns but the big picture is what really should be addressed. Skadron said that he leaned towards Dylan's comments and he could support this with conditions to prevent the basement from becoming a bedroom. Skadron said the homeowners should have the opportunity to change the vacant space into a home office or useful space. Jasmine Tygre said that she was very torn by this amendment because she was part of the original PUD process and felt that this site should have greater density if the parking could be handled however what is on site is what was agreed to. Tygre believed that the PUD should be upheld in terms of density and would be reluctant to approve another bedroom but agreed that it was not right having space that was not useable when those spaces could make the units so much more livable. 5 ASPEN PLANNI~~& ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes - Julv 19, 2005 Marion wanted to have the applicant re-propose an integrated plan. Tygre summed up that the commissioners did not want to see a bedroom but rather a living space with only a powder room not a full bathroom. Joyce Allgaier stated that 3 commissioners did not want to have that livable space be used as a bedroom; it must be residential space. Broughton stated that they would like to come back after getting what was wanted by the entire association. MOTION: Steve Skadron moved to continue the public hearing on the Snyder Park Affordable Housing Project PUD Amendment to August 21 Brian Speck seconded: all infavor, motion carried. PUBLIC HEARING: HYMAN AVENUE APARTMENTS CONDOMINIUMS, SUBDIVISION & GMOS Jasmine Tygre opened the public hearing on the Hyman Avenue Apartments. Jennifer Phelan provided the proof ofnotice, mailing and posting. Jennifer Phelan said there was an existing four-piex at 306 South Garmisch and the applicant proposed replacement of another four-plex with 2 free-market units and 2 affordable housing units. Phelan said the current zoning was residential multi- family; the subdivision would be for the razing of the multi-family existing structure; GMOS was for the affordable housing being created and the condominiumization. Phelan said they met the Multi-family Housing Replacement Program. Staff recommended approval with conditions. Sunny Vann, representative for the applicant, introduced John Provine, the applicant, and Janvar Derrington, architect. Vann said this 4 unit structure was built in the 1970s that has housed working residents in the community from time to time and is therefore subject to the City's Resident Multi-family Replacement Program. Vann stated the project was designed to exceed all of the requirements of that program as well as the RMF or Residential Multi-family dimensional requirements. Vann stated that the applicant accepted the resolution with the conditions. The commission asked about vested property rights and condominiumization. Public Comments: 1. Carol Blomquist asked the height ofthe varying levels of the building and how it varies from what the existing height was; how many parking places were there; how many bedrooms were there; and did the employee housing units go into the lottery of the housing. Janvar Derrington replied the height to the ridge was at 37!4 feet, which was below the 42 feet allowed; the parking was offthe alley with 6 ASPEN PLANNIN~ ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes August 02,2005 Jasmine Tygre opened the regular Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting in Sister Cities Meeting Room at 4:30 p.m. Commission Members Brian Speck, John Rowland, Steve Skadron, Dylan Johns, Ruth Kruger and Jasmine Tygre were present. Brandon Marion was excused. Staff in attendance were Joyce Allgaier, Sarah Oates, Chris Bendon and James Lindt, Community Development and Jackie Lothian, Deputy City Clerk. COMMENTS Ruth Kruger asked about an asset study. Joyce Allgaier said there was a county asset study. James Lindt noted that they were looking into improving the 111eeting spaces. Allgaier said that the city council meeting room was being upgraded. Allgaier distributed surveys on the Chart House. MINUTES 1 fh MOTION: Steve Skadron moved to approve the minutes from July 5 and June 21% seconded by Dylan Johns, all infavor, motion carried. DECLARATION OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST John Rowland rescued himself on the Snyder Affordable Housing PUD Amendment and the Hyman Avenue Condominiums, Subdivision and GMOS. Dylan Johns disclosed that several years ago he did some pre-development studies on the Park Avenue variance but is not involved in any way with the project now. CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING (07/19/05): SNYDER AFFORDABLE HOUSING PUD AMENDMENT Jasmine Tygre opened the continued public hearing for the Snyder Affordable Housing PUD Amendment. James Lindt stated this was a continued public hearing by the Snyder Park Homeowners Association to finish out 8 of the 1-bedroom unit basernents. Lindt said at the last meeting the commission had concerns about the ability of adding bedrooms in the basements because of the parking concerns in the neighborhood. The applicant felt that more parking on the site would hamper the dynamics of the existing site so they have not proposed additional parking but have amended their request to just finish the basements. Condition A in the resolution would prohibit bedrooms in the finished basements; staff recommended approval. Sarah Broughton stated they understood the issues of parking in the neighborhood and have looked at parking on the site but would rather not have it as a condition of approval for tonight. Dan Glick said there were 750 square feet in the basements and 750 square feet on the ground floor. Glick said that he doesn't want another 1 ASPEN PLANNINPIE ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes August 02,2005 bedroom but rather an office because his office is in his dining room. Broughton added to the record 2 letters of support from Frank McDonald from 327 Midland Avenue and Heidi Hoffman. Steve Skadron said that basements were not discussed. Tygre replied that was correct. Lindt responded that basements came about in the construction phase. Ruth Kruger was not in attendance at the last hearing so she will abstain from the vote. Dylan John asked if the bathrooms could be limited to a 14 baths or powder rooins. Lindt said they could propose a condition to that nature. Jasmine Tygre asked how will they police those areas so they do not turn into bedrooms. Lindt responded that the condition was based on the building code definition of what a bedroom is so what they were prohibiting was a closet, direct access to a bathroom and the intension of the room is for sleeping along with the light and ventilation requirements of the building code for a bedroom. Tygre stated that she wanted to help the people at Snyder have additional living space without going through an unenforceable condition concerning the second bedroom. Lindt replied the reality was that community development does get complaints from neighbors; there was not a good concrete way to do enforcement other than neighbor complaints. Dan Glick said the way the complex is set up you see people coming and going and everyone knows everyone and they do not want their density increased. Glick said they do not want renters or strange people coming and going. Broughton said if an owner were to sell housing does an audit on the unit. Public Comments: 1. Bill Taylor, Snyder resident, who just married Nancy said it would be great to be able to utilize the downstairs space. 2. Rob Loventhal, Snyder resident, stated he has a 1 -bedroom also with the bath through the bedroom and he was very thankful to have the unit but also would like to improve the living condition. Loventhal said he has no plans to ever rent any space in his house. 3. Don Brown, Snyder resident, stated it would be nice to be able to use as a den or entertaining space outside of the dining room. Brown said he did not want to add renters. 2 ASPEN PLANNIN-'04 ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes August 02,2005 4. Ruth Wade, Ardmore Subdivision resident, said they all went though a long process to come up with a compromise for everybody on the initial planning of this subdivision and should stick with that. Wade said that the people who live at Snyder signed up as Snyder is now and it seems to work right now. Wade submitted a letter into the record. 5. Nancy Dahl worked on the project and she said that limiting to a !4 bath was an interesting idea but doesn't want to see a bedroom. Dahl said the neighborhood was impacted enough. 6. Antoinette LaFountaine, Snyder resident, said that she uses the room for exercise; there were telephone and television hook-ups, the room was carpeted and the wall were finished. LaFountaine said the bath was a very crucial thing; most homes have 2 toilets. LaFountaine said that no one wanted to rent out that space they j ust wanted to be able to use it. 7. John Redman, Snyder resident, said he was in a 3-bedroom and when your guests have to sleep in the living room and go through your bedroom to the bathroom that was not good. Redman said that no one was leaving their unit and they need to have more livable units. 8. Jim Rose, Ardmore, said that he lives in a free market unit with only one bathroom. Rose said the illegal bathrooms have not been addressed. 9. Bob Wade, Ardmore, said that they were happy when the project came through and nothing has changed drastically to require a change in the way that these units are used. Wade said he was against the change. Rob Loventhal said that they had a meeting with Lee from housing in the very beginning of the process when they won the lottery; Lee went through specific conditions with the unit owners if basements were rented out. Rob Loventhal said there were 2 units with finished spaces; one was Ms. LaFountaine's. Rob Loventhal said that they would never rent the space but housing had guidelines for rental. Tygre said that it was a shame that the approvals given by P&Z and Council were in a sense contradicted by the Housing Authority. Dylan Johns said to put in a 14 bath would be acceptable. Tygre clarified that would not have a tub or shower. Johns said that it should be able to be regulated through tap and permitting. Lindt said a condition was recommended that required building permits. 3 ASPEN PLANNI>~& ZONING COMMISSION - Minutes Aueust 02,2005 Steve Skadron said that he did not take lightly past debates and decisions however this decision directly lends itselfto satisfying the primary goal of the Aspen Area Community Plan; he said that he could support this amendment. Skadron said that he could support Dylan's suggestion. Tygre agreed with Steve and Dylan on the 1/2 bath/powder room. Broughton said that they were approached by the Housing Board and Community Development to go forward with this PUD Amendment to show how affordable housing can be flexible. Broughton said none ofthe owners asked her to create a bedroom in the basement only a bathroom. Tygre said that she felt sympathetic for them getting conflicting information. MOTION: Dylan Johns moved to approve Resolution #22, series 2005, recommending that City Council approve with conditions, the requested amendment to allow for eight (8) 1-bedroom affordable housing units (ADA 1- bedroom unit not included) in the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD to.finish their unfinished basements adding to Section 1 This language shall not preclude the owners from having the ability to install a powderoom (to only contain at most 1 toilet and 1 sink) in the basement as long as the other rooms are not intended to be used for sleeping purposes.

ZONING: AH/PUD (Affordable Housing/PUD) LAND USE The Applicant is requesting approval of a PUD amendment to the REQUESTS: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD pursuant to the procedures established in Land Use Code Section 26.445.100(B), Amendment of PUD development order. STAFF Staff recommends approval with conditions. RECOMMENDATION: LAND USE ACTIONS REQUESTED: The Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD. The Planning and Zoning Commission shall be the recommending body to City Council after considering a recommendation from the Community Development Director pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100, Amendment of PUD Development Order. S-MARY OF REQUEST AND BACKGROUND: The Applicant. Snyder Park Homeowner's Association, is requesting a PUD amendment to amend the PUD that was approved pursuant to Ordinance No. 24, Series of 1998 (attached as Exhibit "D"). Snyder Park consists of fifteen (15) units in total; six 3- bedroom units and nine 1 -bedroom units. The Applicant would like to amend the PUD to allow for the unfinished basements in eight (8) of the nine 1-bedroom units to be finished with a variety of room uses, including bedrooms and bathrooms. The ninth 1-bedroom unit is not proposed for expansion because it is currently slab on grade construction. Originally, these units were approved to be built as slab-on-grade construction with no crawl spaces or basements. However. when the units came in for building permit, a crawl space was required to be constructed -1- .. for egress purposes under each of the units. Subsequently during the excavation for the construction of the crawl spaces, the contractors ran into soils that were not good load bearing soils where the floor of the crawl spaces were to be built. In the end. the units were constructed with full-height, unfinished basements. Several of the units have since finished their basements, but they have not been allowed to include bedrooms or bathrooms because o f the possible impacts associated with adding bedrooms to the site. STAFF COMMENTS: Iii reviewing the PUD amendment request. Staff feels that the flexibility that would be provided through this proposal allowing the 1 -bedroom affordable housing units to be finished with bedrooms is a positive action. As the application asserts, Staff feels that provisions for unit expandability are important in the development of affordable housing projects iii order to allow for unit owners to hold onto their units longer as their families grow and they proceed through different life stages. And in the long run, Staff believes that longer occupancy of affordable housing units builds neighborhood coherence and character that we seek in Aspen. The issue of unit expandability received considerable discussion during the recent review of the Burlingame Affordable Housing Project and the majority of City Council felt that it was appropriate to include provisions for unit expandability in the Burlingame project. Applying the same logic to the Snyder Park project that was constructed in 1998. the Planning Staff and the Housing Board support the proposed request. As far as traffic and parking impacts are concerned, Staff believes that the addition of a bedroom to each of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units would have a minimal impact on both traffic and parking. The number of off-street parking spaces provided in the development is two (2) parking spaces for each of the units that contain two (2) or more bedrooms and one parkiiig space for each of the units that currently contain one bedroom. Staff feels the majority of the finished basement spaces that would result from this amendment will likely be used by people that already live in Snyder Park units and are not likely to create a significant increase in traffic or parking demand. Staff also feels the close proximity of Snyder to the core of town and on an in-town bus route. will encourage walking. bicycling. and use of public transportation by residents of the additional bedrooms. However. Staff does believe that if the Applicants are able to rent out the additional bedrooms. it could exacerbate any parking issues that may exist iii the neighborhood. In response to this concern, Staff has proposed a condition of approval iii the attached resolution requiring that the additional bedrooms in the finished basement are not allowed to be rented. The one-bedroom units are all deed-restricted as Category 3 or lower and the Housing Authority has recommended requiring a condition of approval that when each of the units apply for a building permit to finish the basements with an additional bedroom, that they be required to demonstrate compliance with the minimum unit size in the housing guidelines for a 2-bedroom unit. The Housing Authority has further recommended that the expanded units will only be allowed to be sold as 1-bedroom units as they were originally established and that owners will -2- .. still not be able to be reimbursed for more than 10% of the actual costs of the capital improvements pursuant to the Affordable Housing Guidelines. Other conditions included in the proposed resolution limit the number of bedrooms that are to be installed in the basement of each unit to one additional bedroom and disallow the installation of a cooking device in the basements, thereby keeping the finished basement from becoming separate, additional dwelling units. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission approve the attached resolution, recommending that City Council approve the proposed PUD amendment with the conditions contained therein. RECOMMENDED MOTION: 9 niove to approve Resolution No.22 Series of 2005, recommending that City Council approve with conditions, the requested PUD amendment to allow for the eight (8) 1- bedroom affordable housing units (ADA 1 -bedroom unit not included) in the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD to finish their basements to include additional bedrooms."

APPROVED AS TO FORM: PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: City Attorney Jasmine Tygre, Chair ATTEST: Jackie Lothian, Deputy City Clerk .. EXHIBIT A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) AMENDMENT Review Criteria & Staff Findings Iii accordance with Section 26.445 of the Land Use Code, the Applicants have requested a PUD Amendment. Section 26.445.050, Review Standards: PUD Amendment Section 26.445 of the Regulations provides that development applications for a PUD amendment must comply with the following standards and requirements. A. General Requirements. 1. The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with the affordable housing goals of the AACP. Staff feels that the amendment will allow for the homeowner' s at Snyder Park to have the flexibility to occupy their units for the long-term and allow for the units to change with their different life stages allowing them to be vested members of tlie community as is encouraged by the Housing section of the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 2. The proposed development shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with character of the existing land uses in the immediate area. The proposed amendment will not change the exterior aesthetics of the units in that unfinished basements already exist with the necessary egress. Moreover. the units will continue to be family-oriented affordable housing units. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. The propoxed development shall not adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area in any manner. Thus, Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. The proposed development has either been granted GMQS allotments, ix exempt from GMQS, or GMQS allotments are available to accommodate the proposed development and will be considered prior to, or in combination with,.final PUD development plan review. -4- .. Staff Finding The Applicants have already received the needed GMQS exemptions to construct the affordable housing, a GMQS exemption is not needed to add a bedroom. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable. B. Establishment of Dimensional Requirement%: The.final PUD development plans shall establish the dimensional requirements for all properties within the PUD. The dimensional requirements of the underlying zone district shall be used as a guide in determining the appropriate dimensions.for the PUD. During review of the proposed dimensional requirements, compatibility with surrounding land uses and existing development patterns shall be emphasized. 1. The proposed dimensional requirements for the sub.ject property are appropriate and compatible with the following influences on the property: a) The character of, and compatibility with, existing and expected future land uxes in the surrounding area. b) Natural and man-made hazards. c) Existing natural characteristics of the property and surrounding area such as steep s/opes, waterways, shade, and significant vegetation and landli(,rms. d) Existing and proposed man-made characteristics of the property and the surrounding area such as noise, traftic, transit, pedestrian circulation, parking, and historical resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. The proposed dimensional requirements permit a scale, massing, and quantity of open space and site coverage appropriate and favorable to the character of the proposed PUD and of the surrounding area. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved iii the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The appropriate number of off-street parking spaces shall be established based on the following considerations: a) The probable number of cars used by those using the proposed development including any non-residential land uses. b) The varying time periods of use, whenever joint use of common parking is proposed c) The availability of public transit and other transportation facilities, including those for pedestrian access and/or the commitment to utilize automobile disincentive techniques iii the proposed development. -5- .. d) The proximity of the proposed development to the commercial core and general activity centers in the city. Staff Finding As was discussed iii the staff memo, Staff feels that many of the bedrooms that would be added to the basements of these units will be occupied by people that already live within the development. Staff is further of the opinion that the close proximity of this development to town and to an in-city bus route encourages limited parking demand for the inhabitants of the additional bedrooms that would be provided by this amendment. In addition, Staff has proposed a condition of approval in the resolution requiring that the new bedrooms in the basements not be allowed to be rented out by the owners. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 4. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists insufficient infrastructure capabilities. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) There is not sufficient water pressure, drainage capabilities, or other utilities to service the proposed development. b) There are not adequate roads to ensurefire protection, snow removal, and road maintenance to the proposed development. Staff Finding Staff has consulted the applicable utility agencies. who have expressed that the adequate infrastructure exists to accommodate the proposed amendments. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 5. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists natural hazards or critical natural site features. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) The land is not suitable.for the proposed development because of ground instability or the possibility of mudflow, rockfalls or avalanche dangers. b) The effects of the proposed development are detrimental to the natural watershed, due to runoff, drainage, soil erosion, and consequent water pollution. c) The proposed development will have a pernicious e,ffect on air quality iii the surrounding area and the City. d) The design and location of any proposed structure, road, driveway, or trail in the proposed development is not compatible with the terrain or causes harmful disturbance to critical natural features of the site. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not alter the permitted density of units approved in the original PUD. Additionally, the proposed amendment involves finishing livable space that is already incorporated within the subject buildings. Therefore, finishing the basenients with bedrooms and other uses will not have an impact on site drainage. soil erosion or consequential water pollution. The Applicant also is not requesting to -6- .. amend the site layout so there will not be impact on the natural features of the site. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 6. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a significant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrounding development patterns and with the site's physical constraints. Specitically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goals of the community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan (AACP) or u specific area plan to which the property is subject. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics of the site, as identified in subparagraphs 4 and 5, above, those areas can be avoided, or those characteristics mitigated. c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses, and characteristics. Staff Finding As was discussed in the body of the staff memo. Staff feels that allowing for an additional bedroom in each of the eight (8) unfinished basement spaces fosters long-term occupancy of the affordable housing units, which builds neighborhood coherence and character as is encouraged by the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. B. Site Design: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the PUD enhances public spaces, is complimentary to the site's natural and man-made features und the ad.jacent public spaces, and ensures the public's health and safety. The proposed development xhall comply with the.following: 1. Existing natural or man-made features of the site which are unique, provide visual interest or a specific reference to the past, or contribute to the identity Of the town are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts the site design oftile project. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Structures have been clustered to appropriately preserve Nignificant open spaces and vistas. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts open spaces or vistas on the site. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Structures are appropriately oriented to public streets, contribute to the urban or rural context where appropriate, and provide visual interest and engagement of vehicular and pedestrian movement. -7- .. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact the existing siting of structures on the parcel and will affect the extent to which the units are visually interesting. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. Buildings and access ways are appropriately arranged to allow emergency and service vehicle access. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the einergency ancl service vehicle access that was approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 5. Adequate pedestrian and handicapped access is provided. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the pedestrian and handicapped access that was approved iii the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 6. Site drainage is accommodated for the proposed development in a practical and reasonable manner and shall not negatively impact surrounding properties. Staff Finding 1 he proposed amendment will not impact the site drainage since the amendment will only impact interior space that is already built. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 7. For non-residential land uses, spaces between buildingr are appropriately tie-Nigned to accommodate any programmatic .functions associated with the use. Staff Finding There are no non-residential land uses proposed as part of this amendment and no non- residential uses exist within the subject development. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. C. Landscape Plan: The purpose of this standard is to ensure compatibility of the propâ€žxed landscape with the visual character of the city, with surrounding parcels, and with existing and proposed features of the subject property. The proposed development shali comply with the following: -8- .. I. The landscape plan exhibits a well designed treatment of exterior spaces, preserving existing significant vegetation, and provides an ample quantity and variety ofornamental plant species suitableÂ·for the Aspen area climate. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the landscaping plan that was approved in relation to the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Significant existing natural and man-made site features, which provide uniqueness and interest in the landscape, are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the existing natural or man-macie site features any more than the original development plan. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The proposed method of protecting existing vegetation and other landscape features is appropriate. Staff Finding The site's landscaping will not be impacted by the proposed amendment. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. D. Architectural Character: If ir the purpose of this standard to encourage architectural interest, variety, character, and visual identity in the proposed development and within the City while promoting efficient use of resources. Architectural character is based upon the suitability of a building for its purposes, legibility Of the building's use, the building'Â§ proposed massing, proportion, scale, orientation to public spaces and other buildings, use of materials, and other attributes which may significantly repreNent the character of the proposed development. There shall be approved as part O.f the final development plan and architectural character plan, which adequately depicts the character Of the proposed development. The proposed architecture O.fthe development shall: 1. be compatible with or enhance the visual character of the city, appropriately relate to existing and proposed architecture of the property, represent a character suitable for, and indicative of, the intended use, and respect the scale and massing of nearby historical and cultural resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not alter the architecture and exterior design of the units ill that the amendment is only requesting to finish interior space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. -9- .. 2. Incorporate, to the extent practical, natural heating and cooling by taking advantage of the property'Â§ solar access, shade, and vegetation and by use of non- or less-intensive mechanical systems. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not alter the extent to which the units incorporate natural heating and cooling systems. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Accommodate the storage and shielding of snow, ice, and water in a safe an appropriate manner that does not require significant maintenance. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the ability at which the development accommodates the shielding of snow, ice, and water in that the proposed amendment simply requests to finish interior space that already exists. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. E. Lighting: The purpose ofthis standard is to ensure the exterior of the development will be lighted in an appropriate manner considering both public safety and general aesthetic concerns. Thefollowing standards shall be accomplished: 1. All lighting is proposed so as to prevent direct glare or hazardous interference of any king to adjoining streets or lands. Lighting of Nite features, structures, and access ways is proposed in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding The original PUD requires tliat all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development's compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. AN exterimÂ· lighting shall be in compliance with the Outdoor Lighting Standards unless otherwise approved and noted in the .final PUD documents. Up-lighting of site.features, buildings, landscape elements, and lighting to call inordinate attention to the property is prohibited for residential development. Staff Finding The original PUD requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development's compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. G. Common Park, Open Space, or Recreation Area: If the proposed development includes a common park, open space, or recreation area for the mutual benefit of all development in the proposed PUD, the.following criteria shall be met: - 10 - .. 1. The proposed amount, location, and design of the common park, open space, or recreation area enhances the character of the propoNed development, considering existing and proposed structures and natural landscape features of the property, provides visual relief to the property's built form, and is available to the mutual benefit of the various land uses and property users of the PUD. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact common park or open space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. A proportionate, undivided intereNt in all common park and recreation areas is deeded in perpetuity (not for a number of years) to each lot or dwelling unit owner within the PUD or ownership is proposed in a similar manner. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the project's compliance with this requirement, Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. There is proposed an adequate assurance through legal instrument for the permanent care and maintenance of open spaces, recreation areas, and rhared facilities together with a deed restriction against .future residential, commercial, or industrial development. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the project's compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. H. Utilities and Public Facilities: The purpose Of this standard is to ensure the development does not impose any undue burden on the City's infrastructure capabilities and that the public does not incur an unjustified financial burden. The proposed utilities and public Dicilities associated with the development shall comply with the.following: 1. Adequate public infrastructure facilities exist to accommodate the development. Staff Finding During the review of the original PUD application. it was determined that adequate public facilities exist to accommodate the proposal. This amendment does not impact the projects compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Adverse impacts on public infrastructure by the development will be mitigated by the necessary improvements at the sole cost of the developer. - 11 - .. Staff Finding The affected utility agencies have reviewed the proposed plans and did not express any public infrastructure concerns. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. Oversiz,ed utilities, public facilities, or site improvements are provided appropriately and where the developer is reimbursed proportionately for tile additional improvement. Staff Finding The Applicants are not proposing to install oversized utilities or public facilities and it is not anticipated that the Applicants will be required by the City to provide oversized utilities. This amendment will not impact the size of utilities or public facilities that are needed to accommodate the development. Staff does not find this criterion to be applicable to this application. I. Access and Circulation (Only standards 1&2 apply to Minor PUD applications): The purpose of this standard is to ensure the development is easily accessible, does not unduly burden the surrounding road network, provides adequate pedestrian and recreational trail facilities and minimizes the use of security gates. The proposed access and circulation o.f the development shall meet the folic}wing criteria: 1. Each lot, structure, or other land use within the PUD hits adequate access to a public street either directly or through and approved private road, a pedestrian way, or other area dedicated to public or private use. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the development's compliance with this requirement. Provisions were made in the original PUD approval to insure the adequate access is provided to the development. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. The proposed development, vehicular access points, and parking arrangement do not create traffic congestion on the roads surrounding the proposed development, or such surrounding roads are proposed to be improved to accommodate the development. -12- .. Staff Finding Staff believes that the vehicular access points approved as part of the original development do not create traffic congestion on the surrounding roads. This amendment will not impact the developments compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. J. Phasing of Development Plan. The purpose of these criteria is to ensure partially completed pro.jects do not create an unnecessary burden on the public or surrounding property owners and impacts of an individual phase are mitigated adequately. If phasing of the development plan is proposed, each phase shall be defined in the adopted final PUD development plan. The phasing plan shall comply with the jollowing: 1. All phases, including the initial phase, shall be designed to function as a complete development and shall not be reliant on subsequent phases. 1. The phasing plan describes physical areas insulating, to the extent practical,occupants of initial phases from the construction of later phases. 3. The proposed phasing plim ensures the necessary or proportionate improvements to public .facilities, payment of impact .fees and fees-in-lieu, construction o.f any .facilities to be used .jointly by residents of the PUD, construction of any required afft,rdable housing, and any mitigation measures are realized concurrent or prior to the respective impacts associated with the phase. Staff Finding It is anticipated that all of the unit owners will not finish their basements right way upon approval. The required park development impact fees shall be assessed in conjunction with issuance of a building permit to finish each individual basement. Each individual building permit shall require a construction management plan to minimize construction impacts on neighboring property owners. Staff finds this criterion to be met. -13- 0 0 0 4, #854 ' 8<p 2%3::m:>:Â·:Â·S:Â·SSS:*55Â·:5<Â·k:::SÂ·:Â·:Â·-/I-)%:~~55:Bi:i:*i:*ii:*f:*:5: 1 *994**9** %=.1****%%4*94% **#*:.fr:,2. :8 0 r: Mij~~~~~~::~I?FIii:Iit~i~i***i ~ i }jit}:?i:i i:i:~:~:~:t;li:li i ?EZIN 3 2 rowland+broughton architecture and urban design 27 April 2005 City of Aspen Community Development City of Aspen Housing Department 3@v 22 Re: Snyder Park PUD Amendment RO 3O Dear Sirs and Madams, 00 D- Rowland + Broughton Architecture and Urban Design is representing the homeowner's at Snyder 8 9 DE Park Affordable Housing Planned Unit Development in seeking a PUD Amendment. 62:r Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD was approved in 1998. It has since been built with (15) k 3 a affordable housing units, (6) three-bedroom units and (9) one-bedroom units. The one-bedroom 3-- 1 units were all built with unfinished basements and window wells for egress. The plans originally g 3 CA) . called for slab on grade construction; however basements were added closer to construction. 90 U The owners of the one-bedroom units are interested in being able to fit-out their unfinished ~ 3 basements into a variety of uses. These uses include: home offices, playrooms, storage, bedrooms and bathrooms. Under the current approved PUD, additional bedrooms and bathrooms are not allowed. This application is asking for a PUD Amendment to allow the homeowners at Snyder Park the option to convert existing, unfinished basement space into a variety of different uses, including the possibility of a bedroom and bathroom. The review standards relevant to this application are the land use code for Planned Unit Development, Chapter 26.445. Specifically for our PUD Amendment, the following items apply: 26.445.050.A.1- The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Allowing for an additional bedroom and bathroom to be developed in the unfinished basements at Snyder Park directly relates to the goal of Aspen's affordable housing program to build community. Our community is based on a healthy mix of people, who can call Aspen home. Flexibility is a key component in creating the mix of people. Young people move to Aspen, often find a partner and possibly start a family. Our housing needs to allow for the flexibility of life and encourage roots to be established. 26.445.050.A.2- The proposed development shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area. The east side of town is residential and is going through a major redevelopment. As house prices soar, more locals are forced out of the City. By allowing for an additional bedroom and bathroom to be developed in the unfinished basements, homeowners at Snyder Park will have more options to remain in residency in the City. The option to develop the unfinished basements gives the homeowner the ability to add value to their property all within the Housing Department's guidelines. 1 of 2 Ylfnsdb;oughton.c 1 o . Cooper str;;t #0~ a en co 81611 t 970.52 0 0 Snyder Park PUD Amendment Application 26.445.050.B.6- The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a significant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrounding development patterns and with the site's physical constraints. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goals of the community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics of the site c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses and characteristics. This PUD Amendment meets all of the conditions mentioned above. Through many conversations with both the City of Aspen Housing Board and City of Aspen Community Development, we strongly believe that by adopting a PUD Amendment to allow for the development of the unfinished basements at Snyder Park takes us further to the goal of flexible, diverse and balanced affordable housing. We welcome any conversation or questions regarding this application. Thank you, Sarah Broughton, AIA Cc: Snyder Park Homeowners 2 of 2 71'11.....Â·43Â·/ 4 j ASPEN SI.1 Me~a .

ZONING: AH/PUD (Affordable Housing/PUD) LAND USE The Applicant is requesting approval of a PUD amendment to the REQUESTS: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD pursuant to the procedures established in Land Use Code Section 16.445.10001), Amendment of PUD development order. STAFF Staff recommends approval with conditions. RECOMMENDATION: LAND USE ACTIONS REQUESTED: The Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD. The Planning and Zoning Commission shall be the recommending body to City Council after considering a recommendation from the Community Development Director pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100, Amendment of PUD Development Order. REVIEW SUMMARY: At the previous meeting related to this application, it was apparent that the majority of the Commission felt that adding a bedroom to each of the eight (8) unfinished basements would exacerbate the parking issues that exist in the neighborhood. even with the conditions of approval that Staff had proposed to mitigate this concern. However, the majority of the Commission also appeared to believe that it was appropriate to allow for the units to finish the currently unfinished basement space with habitable space as long as that habitable space does not include bedrooms. At the conclusion of the Commissioner comments. the Applicant requested a continuance of the hearing in order to examine whether additional on-site parking could be provided and whether the owners of the subject Snyder Park units would be accepting of a condition allowing them to finish the basements without the ability to add bedrooms. -1- . Sl AFF COMMENTS: The Snyder Park Hoineowner's Association explored the possibility of providing inore parking within tlie existing development. The best location for additional parking within the development was identified as being just north of the entry drive across from the existing parking spaces for the park. However, in reviewing the option of providing for more parking in this location, the Applicant has not been able to determine the costs that would be associated with providing this parking and feels that the additional parking could compromise the quality of the existing site dynamics to an undesirable extent. Given that the Applicant does not wish to pursue providing additional parking within the development due to the reasons above. Staff has drafted a proposed condition of approval that would allow the owners of the eight 1 -bedroom units to finish the basements with habitable space, but would prohibit the addition of bedrooms iii the basement spaces per the Commission's discussion at the last meeting. The proposed condition is as follows: "The basement.s in the eight 1-bedroom units shall not be allowed to include bedrooms. Bedrooms are defined as a portion of a dwelling unit intended to be 1{sed.for sleeping purposes, 11'hich contain closets, have access to a bathroom and which nieet the Internal.ional Building Code requirements .for light and ventilation. This language shall not preclude the owners ftom having the ability to install a bathroom in the basement as long as the other rooms are not intended to be usedÂ®r sleeping purposes and do not contain closets. The condition described above has been included in the attached resolution (attached as Exhibit 'A"). Staff has also removed the remainder of the conditions from the proposed resolution that related to adding bedrooms in the finished basements. The remaining conditions speak to needing to obtain a building permit to finish the basement spaces. Conditions of approval are also included in the proposed resolution about meeting the applicable building code requirements and about limiting the reimbursement costs on capital improvements to 10% of the capital improvement costs of the improved units. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission approve the attached resolution, recommending that City Council approve the proposed PUD amendment with the conditions contained therein, including the condition about prohibiting bedrooms in the finished basements. RECOMMENDED MOTION: 1 111ove to approve Resolution No~~, Series of 2005, recommending that City Council approve with conditions, the requested PUD amendment to allow for the eight (8) 1- bedroom affordable housing units (ADA 1-bedroom unit not included) in the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD to finish their unfinished basements."

Galena Street Aspen, CO 81611 4% Re: Snyder Park PUD Amendment m - Dear James, tg: Rowland + Broughton Architecture and Urban Design is representing the homeowner's at Snyder Park Affordable Housing Planned Unit Development in seeking a PUD Amendment. We presented to Planning and Zoning on Tuesday, July 19, 2005. From this meeting we understand the concerns the P&Z has with allowing additional bedrooms to be created within the Snyder Park Development as it relates to density and parking issues. We have amended our request for a PUD Amendment to include: Allow for the unfinished basements in Snyder Park Affordable Housing Development to be converted to livable space and finished. The livable basement space cannot contain bedrooms* or cooking devices, thereby reinforcing that the finished basements will not house more people within the development and cannot be used as additional, stand-alone dwelling units. *Bedrooms are defined as a portion of a dwelling unit intended to be used for sleeping purposes, which contain closets, have access to a bathroom and which meet the International Building Code requirements for light and ventilation. This language will not preclude the owners of Snyder Park from having the ability to install bathrooms in the basement as long as the other rooms within the basement are not to be intended to be used for sleeping purposes and do not contain closets. As previously stated, eight (8) of the nine (9) one-bedroom units in Snyder Park were built with unfinished basements including window wells for egress. It is the intention of the owners to be able to finish these basements to allow for a variety of uses, not including bedrooms. Several of the one- bedroom units are arranged so that a guest has to travel through the bedroom to reach the only bathroom. By allowing for the basements to be finished and possibly with an additional bathroom, it creates further flexibility to the homeowner. We believe that this request for a PUD Amendment is consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan and by allowing the basements to be finished without adding additional bedrooms, Snyder Park remains compatible with the surrounding neighborhood context and creates no negative physical characteristics of the site. On the issue of parking, Snyder Park strives to be a good neighbor and we therefore explored ways to mitigate any parking issues for the neighborhood within the site. There is an opportunity to include additional parking on the north side of Kathryn Way across from the existing visitor parking. Four to five parking spots could be built in this area with some major landscape reworking. There is concern 1 of 2 rowlandbrou on.com o c -bUC~estrUIVjhf;*~ ad~pnev~~8â‚¬35â‚¬1~4 Cumul . 0 within the development that by creating these parking spots the overall site plan will be compromised. The homeowners are inquiring about the cost of adding these parking spots, however, at this time they ask that the parking spots not be included in this application as a condition of approval. With approval of this PUD Amendment, each homeowner will be required to apply for a building permit to finish their individual basements and must meet all applicable building code requirements. Additionally, if the owner elects to finish their basement they shall only be reimbursed for no more than 10% of the actual costs of capital improvements to the unit upon the initial sale of the improved unit pursuant to the affordable housing guidelines. We look forward to discussing this application on August 2,2005.

ZONING: AH/PUD (Affordable Housing/PUD) LAND USE The Applicant is requesting approval of a PUD amendment to the REQUESTS: Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD pursuant to the procedures established in Land Use Code Section 26.445.100(B), Amendment of PUD development order. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval with conditions. LAND USE ACTIONS REQUESTED: The Applicant is requesting an amendment to the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD. The Planning and Zoning Commission shall be the recommending body to City Council after considering a recommendation from the Community Development Director pursuant to Land Use Code Section 26.445.100, Amendment of PUD Development Order. SUMMARY OF REQUEST AND BACKGROUND: The Applicant, Snyder Park Homeowner's Association, is requesting a PUD amendment to amend the PUD that was approved pursuant to Ordinance No. 24, Series of 1998 (attached as Exhibit "D"). Snyder Park consists of fifteen (15) units in total; six 3- bedroom units and nine 1 -bedroom units. The Applicant would like to amend the PUD to allow for the unfinished basements in eight (8) o f the nine 1-bedroom units to be finished with a variety of room uses, including bedrooms and bathroonis. The ninth 1-bedroom unit is not proposed for expansion because it is currently slab on grade construction. Originally, these units were approved to be built as slab-on-grade construction with no crawl spaces or basements. 1-fowever, when the units came in for building permit, a crawl space was required to be constructed -1- .. for egress purposes under each of the units. Subsequently during the excavation for the construction of the crawl spaces, the contractors ran into soils that were not good load bearing soils where the floor of the crawl spaces were to be built. In the end. the units were constructed with full-height, unfinished basements. Several of the units have since finished their basements, but they have not been allowed to include bedrooms or bathrooms because of the possible impacts associated with adding bedrooms to the site. STAFF COMMENTS: Iii reviewing the PUD amendment request. Staff feels that the flexibility that would be provided through this proposal allowing the 1-bedroom affordable housing units to be finished with bedrooms is a positive action. As the application asserts. Staff feels that provisions for unit expandability are important in the development of affordable housing projects in order to allow for unit owners to hold onto their units longer as their families grow and they proceed through different life stages. And in the long run, Staff believes that longer occupancy of affordable housing units builds neighborhood coherence and character that we seek in Aspen. The issue of unit expandability received considerable discussion during the recent review of the Burlingame Affordable Housing Project and the majority of City Council felt that it was appropriate to include provisions for unit expandability in the Burlingame proj ect. Applying the same logic to the Snyder Park project that was constructed in 1998. the Planning Staff and the Housing Board support the proposed request. As far as traffic and parking impacts are concerned, Staff believes that the addition of a bedroom to each of the eight (8) 1-bedroom units would have a minimal impact on both traffic and parking. The number of off-street parking spaces provided in the development is two (2) parking spaces for each of the units that contain two (2) or more bedrooms and one parking space for each of the units that currently contain one bedroom. Staff feels tlie majority of the fi11ished basement spaces that would result from this amendment will likely be used by people that already live in Snyder Park units and are not likely to create a significant increase in traffic or parking demand. Staff also feels the close proximity of Snyder to the core of town and on an in-town bus route, will encourage walking. bicycling, and use of public transportation by residents of the additional bedrooms. However, Staff does believe that if the Applicants are able to rent out the additional bedrooms, it could exacerbate any parking issues that may exist in the neighborhood. In response to this concern, Staff has proposed a condition of approval iii the attached resolution requiring that the additional bedrooms in the finished basement are not allowed to be rented. The one-bedroom units are all deed-restricted as Category 3 or lower and the Housing Authority has recommended requiring a condition of approval that when each of the units apply for a building permit to finish the basements with an additional bedroom, that they be required to demonstrate compliance with the minimum unit size in the housing guidelines for a 2-bedroom unit. The Housing Authority has further recommended that the expanded units will only be allowed to be sold as 1-bedroom units as they were originally established and that owners will -2- . capital improvements pursuant to the Affordable Housing Guidelines. Other conditions included in the proposed resolution limit the number of bedrooms that are to be installed in the basement of each unit to one additional bedroom and disallow the installation of a cooking device in the basements, thereby keeping the finished basement from becoming separate, additional dwelling units. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission approve the attached resolution, recommending that City Council approve the proposed PUD amendment with the conditions contained therein. RECOMMENDED MOTION: "I move to approve Resolution No. _. Series of 2005, recommending that City Council approve with conditions, the requested PUD amendment to allow for the eight (8) 1- bedroom affordable housing units (ADA 1-bedroom unit not included) in the Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD to finish their basements to include additional bedrooms."

EXHIBIT A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) AMENDMENT Review Criteria & Staff Findings In accordance with Section 26.445 of the Land Use Code, the Applicants have 1-equested a PUD Amendment. Section 26.445.050, Review Standards: PUD Amendment Section 26.445 of the Regulations provides that development applications for a PUD amendment must comply with the following standards and requirements. A. General Requirements. 1. The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with the affordable housing goals of the AACP. Staff feels that the amendment will allow for the homeowner' s at Snyder Park to have the flexibility to occupy their units for the long-term and allow for the units to change with their different life stages allowing them to be vested members of the community as is encouraged by the Housing section of the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 7 The proposed development shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment is consistent with character of the existing land uses in the immediate area. The proposed amendment will not change the exterior aesthetics of the units in that unfinished basements already exist with the necessary egress. Moreover. the units will continue to be family-oriented affordable housing units. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. The proposed development shall not adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will adversely affect the future development of the surrounding area in any manner. Thus. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. The proposed development has either been granted GMQS allotments, is exempt from GMQS, or GMQS allotments are available to accommodate the proposed development and will be considered prior to, or in combination with,.final PUD development plan review. -4- 0 1 Staff Findin g The Applicants have already received the needed GMQS exemptions to construct the affordable housing, a GMQS exemption is not needed to add a bedroom. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable. B. Establishment of Dimensional Requirements: The final PUD development plans shall establish the dimensional requirements.for all properties within the PUD. The dimensional requirements of the underlying zone district shall be used as a guide in determining the appropriate dimensions Â·for the PUD. During review of the proposed dimensional requirements, compatibility with surrounding land uses and existing development patterns shall be emphasized. 1. The proposed dimensional requirements for the subject property are appropriate and compatible with the.following influences on the property: a) The character of, and compatibility with, existing and expected .future land uses in the surrounding area. b) Natural and man-made hazards. c) Existing natural characteristics of the property and surrounding area such as steep slopes, waterways, shade, and significant vegetation and landforms. d) Existing and proposed man-made characteristics of the property and the surrounding area such as noise, traffic, transit, pedestrian circulation, parking, and historical resources. Staff -Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. The proposed dimensional requirements permit a scale, massing, and quantity of open space and site coverage appropriate and favorable to the character of the proposed PUD and of the surrounding area. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not impact the dimensional requirements that were approved iii the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The appropriate number of off-street parking spaces shall be established based on the following considerations: a) The probable number of cars used by those using the proposed development including any non-residential land uses. b) The varying time periods of use, whenever joint use of common parking is proposed c) The availability of public transit and other transportationfacUities, including those for pedestrian access and/or the commitment to utilize automobile disincentive techniques in the proposed development. -5- . d) The proximity of the proposed development to the commercial core and general activity centers in the city. Staff Finding As was discussed in the staff memo. Staff feels that many of the bedrooins that would be added to the basements of these units will be occupied by people that already live within the development. Staff is further of the opinion that the close proximity of this development to town and to an in-city bus route encourages limited parking demand for the inhabitants of the additional bedrooms that would be provided by this amendment. In addition. Staff has proposed a condition of approval in the resolution requiring that the new bedrooms in the basements not be allowed to be rented out by the owners. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 4. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists insufficient infrastructure capabilities. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) There is not sufficient water pressure, drainage capabilities, or other utilities to service the proposed deveiopment. b) There are not adequate roads to ensure fire protection, snow removal, and road maintenance to the proposed development. Staff Finding Staff has consulted the applicable utility agencies. who have expressed that the adequate infrastructure exists to accommodate the proposed amendments. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 5. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be reduced if there exists natural hazards or critical natural site Â·features. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be reduced if: a) The land is not suitable for the proposed development because of ground instability or the possibility of mudflow, rock fails or avalanclie dangers. b) The effects of the proposed development are detrimental to the natural watershed, due to runoff, drainage, soil erosion, and consequent water pollution. c) The proposed development will have a pernicious effect on air quality in the surrounding area and the City. d) The design and location of any proposed structure, road, driveway, or trail in the proposed development is not compatible with the terrain or causes liarnifut disturbance to critical naturatfeatures of the site. Staff Finding The proposed amendment does not alter the permitted density of units approved iii the original PUD. Additionally, the proposed amendment involves finishing livable space that is already incorporated within the subject buildings. Therefore, finishing the basements with bedrooms and other uses will not have an impact on site drainage, soil erosion or consequential water pollution. The Applicant also is not requesting to -6- . 1 amend the site layout so there will not be impact on the natural features of the site. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 6. The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a signijicant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrounding development patterns and with the site's physical constraints. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goats ofthe community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan (AACP) or a specific area plan to which the property is subject. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics of the site, as identified in subparagraphs 4 and 5, above, those areas can be avoided, or those characteristics mitigated. c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses, and characteristics. Staff Finding As was discussed in the body of the staff memo, Staff feels that allowing for an additional bedroom in each of the eight (8) unfinished basement spaces fosters long-term occupancy of the affordable housing units, which builds neighborhood coherence and character as is encouraged by the AACP. Staff finds this criterion to be met. B. Site Design: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the PUD enhances public spaces, is complimentary to the site's natural and man-made features and the adjacent public spaces, and ensures the public's health and safely. The proposed development shall comply with the.following: 1. Existing natural or man-made features of the site which are unique, provide visual interest or a specific reference to the past, or contribute to the identity of the town are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate manner. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts the site design of the project. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Structures have been clustered to appropriately preserve significant open spaces and vistas. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment impacts open spaces or vistas on the site. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Structures are appropriately oriented to public streets, contribute to the urban or ritral context where appropriate, and provide visual interest and engagement of vehicular and pedestrian movement. -7- . Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact the existing siting of structures on the parcel and will affect the extent to which the units are visually interesting. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 4. Buildings and access ways are appropriately arranged to allow emergency and service vehicle access. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the emergency and service vehicle access that was approved in the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 5. Adequate pedestrian and handicapped access is provided. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not impact the pedestrian and handicapped access that was approved iii the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 6. Site drainage is accommodated for the proposed development in a practical and reasonable manner and shall not negatively impact surrounding properties. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact the site drainage since the amendment will only impact interior space that is already built. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. - 7. For non-residential land uses, spaces between buildings are appropriately de-signed to accommodate any programmatic functions associated with the use. Staff Finding There are no non-residential land uses proposed as part of this amendment and no non- residential uses exist within the subject development. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. C. Landscape Plan: The purpose of this standard is to ensure compatibility of the proposed landscape with the visual character of the city, with surrounding parcels, and with existing and proposed features of the subject property. The proposed development shall comply with the following: -8- . S 1. The landscape plan exhibits a weN designed treatment o.f exterior spaces, preserving existing significant vegetation, and provides an ample quantity and variety of ornamental plant species suitable for the Aspen area climate. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the landscaping plan that was approved in relation to the original PUD. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Significant existing natural and man-made site features, which provide uniqueness and interest in the landscape, are preserved or enhanced in an appropriate mantier. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the existing natural or man-made site features any more than the original development plan. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. The proposed method of protecting existing vegetation and other landscape features is appropriate. Staff Finding The site's landscaping will not be impacted by the proposed amendment. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. D. Architecturai Character: It is the purpose of this standard to encourage architectural interest, variety, character, and visual identity in the proposed development and within the City while promoting efficient use of resources. Architectural character is based upon the suitability of a building .for its purposes, legibility of the building's use, the building's proposed massing, proportion, scale, orientation to public spaces and other buildings, use of materials, und other attributes which may signijicantly represent the character of the proposed development. There shall be approved as part of the final development plan and architectural character plan, which adequately depicts the character of the proposed development. The proposed architecture of the development shall: 1. be compatible with or enhance the visual character of the city, appropriately relate to existing and proposed architecture of the property, represent a character suitable for, and indicative of, the intended use, and respect the scale and massing of nearby historical and cultural resources. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not alter the architecture and exterior design o f the units in that the amendment is only requesting to finish interior space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. -9- . 1 0 2. Incorporate, to the extent practical, natural heating and cooling by taking advantage of the property's solar access, shade, and vegetation and by use of non- or less-intensive mechanical systems. Staff Finding Staff believes that the proposed amendment will not alter the extent to which the units incorporate natural heating and cooling systems. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. Accommodate the storage and shielding of snow, ice, and water in a safe an appropriate manner that does not require significant maintenance. Staff Finding Staff does not believe that the proposed amendment will impact the ability at which the development accommodates the shielding of snow, ice, and water in that the proposed amendment simply requests to finish interior space that already exists. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. E. Lighting: The purpose of this standard is to ensure the exterior of the development will be lighted in an appropriate manner considering both public safetv and general aesthetic concerns. The following standards shall be accomplished: 1. All lighting is proposed so as to prevent direct glare or hazardous interferenee of any king to adjoining streets or lands. Lighting of site features, structures, and access ways is proposed in an appropriate manner. Staff Findine The original PUD requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development's compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. All exterior lighting shall be in compliance with the Outdoor Lighting Standards unless otherwise approved and noted in the final PUD documents. Up-lighting of site.features, buildings, landscape elements, and lighting to call inordinate attention to the property is prohibited for residential development. Staff Finding The original PUD requires that all exterior lighting meet the lighting code requirements of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. The proposed amendment will not impact the development' s compliance with the lighting code. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. G. Common Park, Open Space, or Recreation Area: If the proposed development includes a common park, open space, or recreation area for the mutual benefit of all development in the proposed PUD, the.following criteria shall be met: -10- 0 2 1. The proposed amount, location, and design of the common park, open space, or recreation area enhances the character of the proposed development, considering existing and proposed structures and natural landscape features of the property, provides visual relief to the property's built form, and is available to the mutual benefit of the various land uses and property users of the PUD. Staff Finding The proposed amendment will not impact common park or open space. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. A proportionate, undivided interest in alt common park and recreation areas is deeded in perpetuity (not .for a number of years) to each lot or dwelling unit owner within the PUD or ownership is proposed in a similar manner. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the project's compliance with this requiremeiit. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 3. There is proposed an adequate assurance through legal instrument .for the permanent care and maintenance of open spaces, recreation areas, and shared facilities together with a deed restriction against .future residential, commercial, or industrial development. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the project's compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. H. Utilities and Public Facilities: The purpose o.f this standard is to ensure the development does not impose any undue burden on the City's infrastructure capabilities and that the public does not incur an unjustified financial burden. The proposed utilities and public facilities associated with the development shall comply with the.following: 1. Adequate public infrastructure facilities exist to accommodate the development. Staff Finding During the review of the original PUD application, it was determined that adequate public facilities exist to accommodate the proposal. This amendment does not impact the project's compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. Adverse impacts on public infrastructure by the development will be mitigated by the necessary improvements at the sole cost of the developer. -11- . Staff Finding The affected utility agencies have reviewed the proposed plans and did not express any- public infrastructure concerns. Staff finds this criterion to be met. 3. Oversized utilities, public facilities, or site improvements are provided appropriately and where the developer is reimbursed proportionately for the additional improvement. Staff Finding The Applicants are not proposing to install oversized utilities or public facilities and it is not anticipated that the Applicants will be required by the City to provide oversized utilities. This amendment will not impact the size of utilities or public facilities that are needed to accommodate the development. Staff does not find this criterion to be applicable to this application. I. Access and Circulation (Only standards 1&2 apply to Minor PUD applications): The purpose of this standard is to ensure the development is easily accessible, does not unduly burden the surrounding road network, provides adequate pedestrian and recreational trail .facilities and minimizes the use of security gates. The proposed access and circulation of the development shall meet the following criteria: 1. Each lot, structure, or other land use within the PUD has adequate access to a public street either directly or through and approved private road, a pedestrian way, or other area dedicated to public or private use. Staff Finding This amendment does not impact the development's compliance with this requirement. Provisions were made in the original PUD approval to insure the adequate access is provided to the development. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. 2. The proposed development, vehicular access points, and parking arrangement do not create traffic congestion on the roads surrounding the proposed development, or such surrounding roads are proposed to be improved to accommodate the development. - 12 - . 0 Staff Finding Staff believes that the vehicular access points approved as part of the original development do not create traffic congestion on the surrounding roads. This amendment will not impact the development's compliance with this requirement. Staff finds this criterion not to be applicable to this application. J. Phasing of Development Plan. The purpose of these criteria is to ensure partially completed projects do not create an unnecessary burden on the public or surrounding property owners and impacts of an individual phase are mitigated adequately. If phasing O.f the development plan is proposed, each phase shall be defined in the adopted final PUD development plan. The phasing plan shall comply with the.following: 1. All phases, including the initial phase, shall be designed to function as a complete development and shall not be reliant on subsequent phases. 2. The phasing plan describes physical areas insulating, to the extent practical, occupants Of initial phases.from the construction of later phases. 3. The proposed phasing plan ensures the necessary or proportionate improvements to public facilities, payment of impact .fees and fees-in-lieu, construction of any facilities to be used jointly by residents of the PUD, construction of any required affordable housing, and any mitigation measures are realized concurrent or prior to the respective impacts axsociated with the phase. Staff Finding It is anticipated that all o f the unit owners will not finish their basements right way upon approval. The required park development impact fees shall be assessed in conjunction with issuance of a building permit to finish each individual basement. Each individual building permit shall require a construction management plan to minimize construction impacts on neighboring property owners. Staff finds this criterion to be met. -13- t Heidi H.

Galena Aspen, CO 81611 -RE: Snyder Park PUD Amendment To Whom It May Concern: I would like to extend my support to the homeowners at Snyder Park to amend the existing PUD to allow the finishing off of their basements to include uses other than bedroom use. As a neighbor and associate architect on the project, this amendment should not impact the intent of the affordable housing program to provide for one-bedroom housing nor automobile parking on Midland Avenue. That being said, I would encourage the Snyder Park homeowners to strictly monitor their own parking situation and be responsive to their neighbor's parking and driving concerns. The issue of current parking spots not being used for their intended use needs to be addressed by the homeowners themselves. Thank you for the opportunity to support the passage of this PUD amendment. Very truly yours, Heidi H. Hoffmann AIA .

O --1 Pu Snyder Park Affordable Housing PUD was approved in 1998. It has since been built with (15) 8 4 affordable housing units, (6) three-bedroom units and (9) one-bedroom units. The one-bedroom 3 units were all built with unfinished basements and window wells for egress. The plans originally g called for slab on grade construction; however basements were added closer to construction. 4 00 U The owners of the one-bedroom units are interested in being able to fit-out their unfinished a: CÂ» basements into a variety of uses. These uses include: home offices, playrooms, storage, bedrooms and bathrooms. Under the current approved PUD, additional bedrooms and bathrooms are not allowed. This application is asking for a PUD Amendment to allow the homeowners at Snyder Park the option to convert existing, unfinished basement space into a variety of different uses, including the possibility of a bedroom and bathroom. The review standards relevant to this application are the land use code for Planned Unit Development, Chapter 26.445. Specifically for our PUD Amendment, the following items apply: 26.445.050.A.1- The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Community Plan. Allowing for an additional bedroom and bathroom to be developed in the unfinished basements at Snyder Park directly relates to the goal of Aspen's affordable housing program to build community. Our community is based on a healthy mix of people, who can call Aspen home. Flexibility is a key component in creating the mix of people. Young people move to Aspen, often find a partner and possibly start a family. Our housing needs to allow for the flexibility of life and encourage roots to be established. 26.445.050.A.2- The proposed development shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the surrounding area. The east side of town is residential and is going through a major redevelopment. As house prices soar, more locals are forced out of the City. By allowing for an additional bedroom and bathroom to be developed in the unfinished basements, homeowners at Snyder Park will have more options to remain in residency in the City. The option to develop the unfinished basements gives the homeowner the ability to add value to their property all within the Housing Department's guidelines. lofZ 00 e. cooper street #3, aspen co 81611 t .544.9006 Â·Â· f 97( .. Snyder Park PUD Amendment Application 26.445.050.B.6- The maximum allowable density within a PUD may be increased if there exists a significant community goal to be achieved through such increase and the development pattern is compatible with its surrounding development pattems and with the site's physical constraints. Specifically, the maximum density of a PUD may be increased if: a) The increase in density serves one or more goals of the community as expressed in the Aspen Area Community Plan. b) The site's physical capabilities can accommodate additional density and there exists no negative physical characteristics of the site c) The increase in maximum density results in a development pattern compatible with, and complimentary to, the surrounding existing and expected development pattern, land uses and characteristics. This PUD Amendment meets all of the conditions mentioned above. Through many conversations with both the City of Aspen Housing Board and City of Aspen Community Development, we strongly believe that by adopting a PUD Amendment to allow for the development of the unfinished basements at Snyder Park takes us further to the goal of flexible, diverse and balanced affordable housing. We welcome any conversation or questions regarding this application. Thank you, Sarah Broughton, AIA Cc: Snyder Park Homeowners 2 of 2 ' Apr 07 04 09:312 D.an Glick 1-970-920-3800 P.1 . 0 . I -.

APPLICANT understands and agrees that City of Aspen Ordinance No. 57 (Series of 2000) establishes a fee structure for Land Use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a condition precedent to a determination of application completeness. 3. APPLICANT and CITY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed proj ect, it is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the application. APPLICANT and CITY further agree that it is in the interest of the parties that APPLICANT make payment of an initial deposit and to thereafter permit additional costs to be billed to APPLICANT on a monthly basis. APPLICANT agrees additional costs may accrue following their hearings and/or approvals. APPLICANT agrees he will be benefited by retaining greater cash liquidity and will make additional payments upon notification by the CITY when they are necessary as costs are incurred. CITY agrees it will be benefited through the greater certainty ofrecovering its full costs to process APPLICANT'S application. 4. CITY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for CITY staff to complete processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or City Council to enable the Planning Commission and/or City Council to make legally required findings for project consideration, unless current billings are paid in full prior to decision. 5. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the CITY's waiver of its right to collect full fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay an initial deposit in the amount of $ N /A# which is for N lA' hours of Community Development staff time, and if actual recorded costs exceed the initial deposit, APPLICANT shall pay additional monthly billings to CITY to reimburse the CITY for the processing of the application mentioned above, including post approval review at a rate of $205.00 per planner hour over the initial deposit. Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date.
