RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
JUNE 20. 1989
Chairman Welton Anderson called meeting to order at 4:30pm.
Answering roll call were Mari Peyton, Roger Hunt, Jasmine Tygre
and Welton Anderson.
Michael Herron and Graeme Means arrived immediately after roll
call. Bruce Kerr was excused. Jim Colombo was absent.
COMMISSIONER'S COMMENTS
There were none.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS
MOTION
Roger made a motion to re-affirm the present appointments of
officers.
Mari seconded the motion with all in favor.
. STAFF COMMENTS
Tom Baker: Last time P&Z had 2 requests. One was to get some
legal opinions from Fred regarding potential exposure for
litigation. The other issue was on recycling.
Discussion followed with Fred Gannett
regarding the litigation liability with
issues.
and the Commission
regard to land use
Discussion was then held between Keren Martin, Jim Duke and
Commission regarding recycling.
Graeme: There are 2 things on the agenda tonight which I was
interested in bringing up recycling with. The reason is that
they are relatively large projects. Do you think it would be
appropriate when we approve large projects to place conditions on
certain approvals regarding recycl ing efforts. It makes sense
with larger projects.
Tom: This would be the time to talk about this sort of thing.
MINUTES
APRIL 25. 1989
Jasmine made a motion to approve minutes of April 25, 1989.

MCCLAIN STREAM MARGIN REVIEW
PUBLIC HEARING
Leslie Lamont of the Planning Department made presentation.
(attached in record)
Leslie presented a revision of condition #5. (attached in record)
Roger:
nothing
'/ANN
Sunny: It will probably require some form of structural support
very similar to the decks that were done on the lot next door.
As long as appropriate techniques are taken in the design the
slope stabilization should not be a problem. We are not going to
be taking up the whole slope to build a building foundation.
The #3 deck being
pegged down on the
cantilevered deck means that there is
ground. Right?
Michael: My only comment is in connection with #5. Even in the
revision of #5 shouldn I t there be language in there that says
they have to remove it?
Sunny: We were trying to find a solution that didn't do more
damage to solve the problem than we caused originally. What we
propose to do is identify the extent of the impact it has. If
that impact is minimal through the process which FEMA would allow
us to amend the flood plain map which absolves the City of any
liability. If it is a significant impact then the Engineering
Department will require us to come in and certify the extent of
the fill and make appropriate measures to remove it.
Michael: That language and that concept is not expressed in any
of the conditions. It should read "amount of material shall be
removed".
Sunny: The conditions are acceptable to us with the exception of
a portion of #6. The code requires the dedication of trail. In
this case there is no trail. There is no requirement for a
fisherman I s easement. Fisherman do routinely move up and down
the river. They are more than willing to grant an easement
across that portion of their property which lies within the river
so that the fishermen can continue to go there.
We object, however, to the imposition of a 5ft additional ease-
ment across their property. There is no code requirement for it.
Leslie: In the plan map on the where they show the existing and
the proposed across the river from the parcel there is a proposed
trail that is intended to come out at the Gordon Callahan Bridge
crossing and Cooper Street Bridge going across. And then the map
does also indicate that there is a proposed open space corridor
2
PZM6.20.89
along starting in this subdivision and moving along the Roaring
Fork River.
Mari: What is the difference between open space easement and a
fisherman's easement?
Tom: We are attempting to do this in the county as well. We are
not trying to pressure the P&Z into doing something they are
uncomfortable with. But we are interested in having access to
all the streams and rivers throughout the County. Leslie's point
is that there is an open space system as well as a trail system
and that fisherman's access request is for 5ft above the high
water line just along the bank.
MOTION
Michael: I am not comfortable with taking 5ft of these people's
property because there is something proposed across the river. I
don't think that is particularly fair.
Based upon that I would like to make a motion that we accept the
Planning Department's recommendation for stream Margin Review
change to paragraph 5 and deleting #6.
Jasmine seconded the motion.
Welton: I am not comfortable with not taking the 5 feet in an
easement for the fisherman's easement or open space easement. If
we didn't do it on the one next door, the one next door is going
to come back in in 2 or 3 year's time with some additional
development proposal and that would be the time to get that and
create these lanes to connect them all together. I would vote
for a motion to include all the Planning Office's recommendations
as listed with #5 being amended but not deleting it.
Graeme: What are the applicant's problems with granting that 5ft
easement? I would like to understand a little better how far the
proposed deck and the existing decks are from the 5ft line. Also
whether the normal pedestrian path, if someone were walking up
that river, is in the 5ft or is in the floodway.
sunny: I don't necessarily object to a fisherman's easement. I
do object to having a set of codified requirements and then
exacting it as a condition thereto. If you want to go back and
amend your code to reflect, as a policy, that from now on we are
going to take fisherman's easements and establish criteria, as a
system of those easements, that is fine. But to all of a sudden
decide to take fisherman's easements and exact them as this
discretionary review is inappropriate.

....,.~
PZM6.20.89
Having said that in tl'\is particular case the lower deck is
adjacent or just above the high water line. In fact the results
of our analysis may require us to remove a portion of that deck.
You couldn't build a trail along there in a 5ft above the high
water line without running into the same problems which Leslie is
concerned about with the deck itself. We would prefer not to
encourage people walking along that slope. Forget the fact that
it is in their back yard. Just as a practical matter, people
walk up the river in low flow to fish. We are willing go give an
easement portion across that portion of the river. To encourage
pedestrian traffic when it is not even a trail and the likelihood
of building a trail is very remote, doesn't make any sense.
Graeme: It seems to me that it is not going to change. So that
doesn't make any sense. If we did grant this 5ft easement then
it might end back--you send a signal to the City that they could
potentially put a trail in which I don't think is what needs to
be done.
Sunny: The trail is on the other side because the terrain blends
itself to a trail because that is the flood plain on that side of
the river. To build a trail along that portion you do more
disruption than the building of the deck itself.
Michael: I don't think legally we can impose this either because
it is not in the code. We can't just discretionarily take
people's property. I think we should talk to the city Attorney
before we start doing that.
Roger: What about the wording of the fisherman's easement
adjacent to the water line? Not specify--either high or low.
Fishermen are supposed to be fishing at the water line as opposed
to any specified distance ashore.
Sunny: I would

Michael amended his motion.

to build a deck there that the vegetation would have to be
removed.

J.s you don't want to make sure that we tear up the slope in
building the deck. We agreed in our application to use
acceptable standards to build the foundation for that deck. The
city's interest is protected in that we have agreed to submit the

adversely affecting the slope.

it is in the community's interest and recommend approval with a
condition that the City file a final plat to the satisfaction of
the city Engineer.

PUBLIC HEARING
Welton opened the public hearing.
Tom Baker: Made presentation as attached in record.
Tom stevens: This project has gone through a massive program
change. We have re-designed from scratch. Where we are at right

now there are 46 apartments all permanent residency for a total
of 84 bedrooms. Primarily it is studio. There are 8 studios and
38 2-bedroom apartments. However 4 of the studio apartments have
a fairly sizeable loft and come in at about 556sqft. So you
could actually interpret those as 1-bedroom apartments.
The site plan has changed from the seasonal housing to permanent
housing in the fact that it is now 2 large buildings instead of 4
small buildings. What this does for us is it gives us more
usable site space. The amount of open space that is there now is
condensed into half as many parcels as before. So it is more
usable. Also it gives us a little more opportunity to undulate
the facade of the building and attempt to make the building more
attractive.
coming out of Council there was a request to look into auto
disincentives. We looked at providing 86 cars instead 114. 114
is as per code. As part of the disincentive what we have looked
at doing is reducing the number of cars, managing those cars that
are on site. In other words priority rental to non-drivers or
people that don't have cars and then the people that do have cars
will be issued a window sticker in an attempt to control the
actual number of parking.
We have also negotiated with the city on 20 spaces during winter
months and the existing City parking lot as overflow/guest
parking. In addition to that we have gotten with RFTA and will
be initiating a van-pool service specific to this project. RFTA
will lease to the Housing Authority a 10-passenger van, maintain
it, pay for lease payments, pay for gasoline and then the Housing
Authority will provide a driver. The Housing Authority will also
set the schedule for the van/pool so that it best serves the
needs of the people specific to this project. We are trying to
get mass transit off Hwy 82 to where it can pick people up right
in the parking lot and take them into town.
We are trying to eliminate the need for people to cross Hwy 82,
give them their own shuttle service right inside the project
itself. This will be a van/shuttle. There will be a full-time
driver or whatever the schedule requires from the project. That
schedule will be specific to this project.
That means we have eliminated 26 cars. The parking lot that we
have eliminated is what is now an existing tennis court. Now in
response to conditional approval we have added a half-court
basketball court and a volley ball facility and additional
landscaping.
The schedule of the project has not changed from its original

conception.
year.
The building is still not viewable from the highway. From the
9th fairway of the golf course we are still providing berming
along that side. We are trying to keep it minimal so that it
doesn't look like a man-made earth fence. The berm serves 2
functions. That is to restrict, at least mentally, play of the
9th fairway as well as reduce the aesthetics of the building from
the fairway from 2 stories to 1.
It will be ready for occupancy December of this
We have also increased the amount of planting along that side of
the building to further separate the residents of the project
from the 9th fairway. All of the units are along the golf course
and we will have at least visual access to the golf course.
with the change to permanent residency some of the outdoor
amenities that we had decided to provide changed. Originally the
project was seen as MAA students in the summer. with more
permanent residency and more of a family orientation we have also
included a children's play area/barbecue pit in the center of the
2 buildings.
Roger: Just eliminating parking spaces is not an
disincentive. It may be less cars parked there but if you
the people with cars, where are they going to park the car?
auto
have
Tom: That is exactly it. I don't really see auto disincentive
as penalizing people but actually making mass transportation more
convenient. There are 2 ways to approach the number of cars on
site. As to an auto disincentive plan no one element of this
plan works on its own. It all has to work together. And judging
whether or not it works--it is probably going to be a year down
the road. If it does work--great. If it doesn't work then we
are going to have to provide more parking. We still have the
space to do it. The pavement is still there and we still can do
it. I just think that we need to make an attempt to do this.
Tom Baker: The Council gave the applicant some strict direction.
That is what they are responding to.
Jasmine: The thing that concerns me about the leasing and the
preferential treatment given to people without cars is that it is
virtually unenforceable. You are going to be chasing your tails
for nothing.
Graeme: I saw that the applicant has resisted plowing the
bikeway because it is used as a ski trail which being a skier I
know that it isn't.

,
PZM6.20.89
I saw in the site plan that there are 24ft long bicycle racks.
And it is $15,000 cash-in-lieu for a parking space. So we are
valuing a parking space at $15,000. I think if we were to spend
$15,000 to $30,000 on a really good bicycle program we would be
not only saving the parking space but a lot of the traffic. I
think for that $30,000 we would be making an enormous
improvement. I think :the bicycle thing should be stressed.
There should be a covered area for bicycles. If that were paved
into town I think people would use it. If 4 people used it then
that is at $15,000 per parking space that is $60,000 worth of
parking spaces that we have saved. That is if 4 people road
their bicycles. I don't think this applicant has addressed the
bicycle issue.
Tom Stevens: Regarding bicycle storage--there is square footage
available under the existing building and there will be square
footage available under the proposed building for bicycle
parking.
Peter Dobrovolny, Architect: What we have done is to put storage
underneath of the buildings. When we realized that we had to
sprinkle the buildings we needed to have the room for sprinkler
equipment and other equipment. The obvious place for it was
underground. It can be relatively inexpensively space underneath
the buildings and can easily be used for bicycle storage and
other storage.
Graeme: I don't think it would be used for day to day basis for
someone who rides a bicycle. The turn around at the south or
east end of the project'there--could there be separate from the
buildings a covered pavilion that could be quite attractive that
could park 50 to 60 bicycles. There also needs to be some kind
of way to get onto the bike path preferably without going all the
way out to parking lot and back around. Those are the kinds of
things that are going to have to happen to make the bike thing
work.
Tom stevens: What was originally envisioned as a management
building is no longer going to be a management office. It was a
code problem as to what it was going to cost to bring that
building up to code. That could be easily use for bicycles.
Roger: Does each uni t

Dobrovolny: What we will do is essentially 2 full apartments
worth of space will be put under each building for storage. It
is about 2,000sqft altogether for the whole project. Each will
have separate lockers.

Welton opened the public hearing.
steve Conger: I live right across the road from this project. I
am not sure people understand how bad the car situation is out
there. First of all I live on the other side of the highway. If
I want to drive down valley it will often take me 5 minutes
before there is a stop. That is for 1 car to get across the road
to turn left. The time it is the worst is in the summer when you
get people coming in and out of town at the same time.
If you are coming from the Red Roof's side you are going to have
to get in to that stream of traffic that is coming up that is
almost non-stop.
The amount of cars in this reduced version is 70. If you have
that many people turning left at a peak time of day going into
town and it takes me 5 minutes to turn left--and it is getting
worse every year. In the summer there are times when traffic is
backed up past that area in both directions.
The bike issue is not like an elective for this project. It is
like a mandatory. Fairly drastic measures have to be taken to
try to make this situation manageable.
The thing that concerns me the most is that there is going to
have to be a light there. If there is a light there what that
does it backs up cars. And it creates a pollution problem that
is a lot worse because cars are idling. So for the neighborhood
there is going to be more carbon monoxide.
I am not against the project at all. There is a desperate need
for employee housing and this is an area for it. I am worried
that the air quality is going to go down with a light there.
Tom Baker: In discussions with Rich

Persky he is convinced
increment that is added
to be a left turn lane
and acceleration and
Council was fairly adamant that a traffic signal was not the
answer at this intersection. The Highway Department has
indicated that they would not require a traffic signal although
it would require channelization.
RFTA is going to do the high occupancy vehicle lane from the
Maroon Creek Bridge to the Castle Creek Bridge. That is going
to, in effect, add an additional lane for busses. Rich Persky
felt that it might be appropriate that the Housing has about $40
9
PZM6.20.89
to $60,000 that they can spend on an intersection and they would
need a deceleration lane and an acceleration lane.
Linda Conger: I live on the other side of the highway and when
we come out to turn down valley, we are going to have to cross a
high-occupancy vehicle lane and go across this where there are
people waiting to turn left here. At the same time there are
people coming out here trying to pull this way into town while we
are trying to go this way. And it is not clear who is going to
go first and which way they are going to pass. Plus you have
busses stopping here and you have school busses stopping here.
This is the site of the highest fatality accident in pitkin
County history right here.
Then you have the Jehovah's witnesses going in there and there
are 125 cars there Thursday and Sunday and most of them are going
down valley.
Michael: I just don't understand, from a practical standpoint,
how anybody can look at, this project and not consider the fact
that you have to have a light. The impact of this development on
that intersection is only going to be left turns. So all of
those things that the Highway Department is suggesting is going
to have no effect on it whatsoever. These people are not going
to be leaving this project to go any place other than into Aspen.
I don't see how we can do this without a light.
Tom: We represented that to Council.
Elizabeth Nathan: I work at the Housing Authority. with the
golf course and soft ball there are already a lot of people going
in and out. This proj ect is the straw that broke the camel's
back. It needs to be recognized that this project doesn't carry
the burden of that intersection.
Don Helmick: I live on the other side of the golf course on
Snowbunny. I would like to second everything Steve has said
about the traffic out there. It is already a problem and this
project with the potential magnitude of vehicles you are bringing
in there, it makes it absolutely gridlock.
Maybe you say to this project there is no vehicles at all. And
you put in an underpass. ' Spend $100, OOO--whatever you have to do
and say that there are 2 ways to get in and out of town. #1 you
take the bike which I think is great. The other is you have a
designated parking lot somewhere else down the road a couple of
miles or next to the RFTA bus barn. Put the underpass in which
allows little kids who have to catch the school bus or somebody
10
';;,*"'"
PZM6.20.89
who just has to get to work. You put the underpass in and they
go under and they catch a RFTA bus that is going into town.
My other concern is that they play 350 rounds of golf a day out
there. I think you have got real serious safety considerations
with the highway.
I am in favor of the project. We need it and it is good but I
think we really have to consider the safety factors. You really
need intensive management to make this thing work. If you don't
control the parking you will have people who don't even live
there who will be driving in and parking there because they can't
find a place in the existing lot.
Jim Adamski: I understand what the neighbors are saying. I
understand the highway is a problem. I also understand that
people are getting killed on that highway. Most of us folks live
down valley. The reason for doing employee housing is to bring
people off that highway. That is what we are trying to do here.
And we are trying to do it in a real istic fashion that isn't
going to break the backs of the people who are living there or
cause any other impact.
You already have the impacts. They are there.
soft ball. You have your golfers. We are trying
off the highway by bringing them closer to town.
You have your
to get people
Linda Conger: I think t~ere is a problem now but I think adding
another 80 cars is completely out of the question. I think we
have to have extreme auto disincentive policies. It is going to
take some new approaches and some radical approaches. One way
might be to present the project as a car-free project. People
need not apply who have cars. You let people know that ahead of
time.
Tom stevens: There is already a horrible traffic problem there.
This project is making it worse. We have known that since day
one. We have gotten a clear message from Council not to pursue
lighting as a means of solving the problem. We got a clear
message from Council to pursue auto disincentive and
channelization of the highway. That is what we have pursued.
Whether or not we are convinced that channelization of the
highway and auto disincentive is going to solve the problem for
us as applicants right now is irrelevant. That is what we were
instructed to pursue. What this project cannot afford is a
light. If a light has to go there, it has got to be a City or a
Highway Department or RFTA expense. It cannot be at the expense
of the renters of this project.

PZM6.20.89
Laurie stevens: I have been an employee for 10 years. And I
don't understand why employees are the ones who are going to
suffer and be the ones who can't drive our cars. But people who
live right in town can. Employees are those who usually have a
family and who need to come into town occasionally to work and
get groceries, etc. And we are the ones who cannot have a car.
This is ridiculous. It is the same thing as "Not in my back
yard".
I live in Carbondale. The Basalt bypass adds pollution. People
are trying to come in from Basalt. People are cutting in. It is
the same thing down valley. But that is OK. Granted this is a
problem but the employees will have a home in Aspen and I tell
you if 90% of the employees could ride their bikes to work, they
would do it. The ones who are on the highway would love to ride
their bikes to work.
But for the ones who need to drive their cars--and can't drive
their cars--that is totally unfair.
steve Conger: What I have heard Tom say is that he has been
instructed to solve this issue in a way that won't work. That is
basically what is happening.
Welton: It looks like we are boiled down to: Denying the whole
thing out of hand because it is going to create too many added
cars on Highway 82 and untenable additional burden on left turn
traffic. I don't think anybody on this Board is going to approve
that. Or we can approve it with as many automobile disincentives
as we possibly can. That is what Graeme has been fighting for
and what the City Council has offered and what we all want to do
and realize after the fact that we have done something good. We
have provided employee housing when the need is most.
But we have an additiona~ problem on Highway 82 and we have got
to go to the state and ask for a traffic light there or at ABC or
somewhere else--someplace where a traffic light can create a
holding.
I live at the Villas right at the S' s. I go across Bleeker
street on a daily basis with my dog. And you just have to wait a
couple of minutes maybe and then you can get across. That is
because of the light at Hyman.
MOTION
Michael: I think as a Planning Commission we are obligated to do
some planning notwithstanding what the City Council wants or what
the applicant can afford.
12
PZM6.20.89
I make a motion that we approve the project with a requirement
that there be a light. I am not saying that the applicant should
pay for it. The City council just discovered a surplus, they can
peti tion the state. I don't care how they get alight but if
there is any way to do it to protect the safety of the people I
think that is probably the government's first function.
We need to address the question about the bikes.
Graeme: In terms of a light, I am not traffic engineer. I can't
say they do or don't need a light or lanes. Maybe you are right
but I couldn't support that for that reason.
Welton: The bike question is left that that manager's building
would serve.
Graeme: And we have got the plowing of the trail. But they have
said that they would not--they said before that they were trying
to get us to drop that.

they kept 2 vans going 16 hours a day to keep people from

There are no statistics that we can use.

There is no model.
Roger: You might seriously consider putting at least a portion
of that parking into storage parking where they require some lead
time to get their car out to use it. An incentive on their rent
by having no car.
Mari: Regarding the underpass, I think that is a good idea.
Tom Baker: We got an estimate from the Engineering Office of
$75,000 for a pedestrian underpass.
Dobrovolny: An estimate from the Highway Department for a Basalt
underpass was $175,000. I know when Basalt went through this
same process with the light there when the highway was finished
everybody said we are 'Joi n'J to need a light there. And the
Highway Department said "Ou,. figures show you don't". But they

process they will have to go through. They will have to monitor
it and see the amount of traffic themselves.

So we are looking at an interim
Graeme: I agree with the underpass. As 82 becomes worse it
becomes more of a division between cutting the valley in half and
the more pedestrian access "!e can get through that the more
pedestrians and bicycles there are going to be and I think that
is what we are trying to do.
Roger: These are shed roefs and it looks like you are dumping
snow down into entrances. "'hat is going to be your method of
snow control into these accr~sways. What kind of roof material
is it going to be?
Dobrovolny: They are Asphalt shingles because they will hold
snow longer. The reason fcr the roof corning down here is so that
it is not dumping snO\, on th0 steps.
Mari: What about tr;ese exp00rl stairways? They are going to get
snow and ice on them.

The cars are parked in the parking lot. I think what we have to
do is attempt to go in there with the best and most practical
management plan th0re is. I think what we have is an attempt at
that. I don't think Ioc'ing poople's cars up is the answer. How
can you manage th"~.? I r you have given someone a rent decrease
and they need their car how do you deal with that?
Jasmine: I agree with Jim. We all want this project to work
really well and to have minimal impacts on the neighbors and on
the town. But you c'ln' t do it through regimenting people into
these situations. If you get into over-regulation, you put a
tremendous burden on the, management, create a resentment on the
tenants and you don't re'1Ily solve the problem.
Mari: I see in h "rp ] l nd cost $250,000 and land and building
$750,000. Is thi',,'l ' "'-0 Hr'!sing Authority is going to pay the
land fund? What "2:; U;; loGS'] on?
Jim Adamski: We are raying the land fund a million bucks. The
tenants are paying th0 land fund a million bucks.
Mari: What was that b,Clsed on?
Jim Adamski: I don't know. They said a million bucks. We said OK.
