I know that they cannot get their CO until the ice rink
and we haven't gotten the final application for the ice
Sara: Are there expiration dates on the building permits?
Kim: You have to be in an active process within 18 months of
getting a permit.
Sara: But can it go on for 5 years?
Kim: Yes. As long as there is active construction going on.
Bruce: There are certain stage schedules where they have got to
meet certain performance levels by certain dates.
Mari: I believe the city Council revised all of those dates
because they weren I t met originally. And then after the vote
last year, they hammered out a new schedule. If possible I would
like us to know what that schedule is.

GOLF COURSE PUD AMENDMENT
NORDIC COUNCIL LIGHTED SKIING
Kim Johnson, Planning: Made presentation as attached in record.
Bruce: Did staff recommend waiving the fee?
Kim: We did not make any recommendation on that.
Today I received a letter from craig Ward (attached in record) of
the Aspen Nordic Associates. He could not make the meeting
tonight but wished to make a few comments. He sited that the
inspiration for this system came from our sister City in Davos in
Switzerland. They have a well lit but inconspicuous lighted
track that he has participated in which is also on their golf
course. And he would like to see this initiated here.
Jasmine opened the public hearing.
/'
Hal Clark, representing the Parks Association: Ward asked me to
come. We first heard about this several months ago and we were
aghast. We had this vision of lights running all around the golf
course. At that time the Board voted against the application
because we were very, very afraid of the visual impacts at the
entry to town.
We were also afraid about what else this may prompt at the golf
course. There may be a request to do lighting on the driving
range for example which I think would follow as night follows
day. So we are very concerned about the potential purpose in
lighting up that entire golf course.
I have talked to Bob Wade and Craig Ward since then and frankly
what they are proposing is very hard to visualize. I don't know
if this is going to be a glaring problem or not. I am concerned
about the wiring you are going to be using and if it is going to
be a temporary installation because in looking at this as a
temporary installation I think might satisfy our needs to better
evaluate it.
Betty Grindly: I wrote a letter to the editor expressing my
desire to consume energy so there won't be Persian War #2, 3, and
4. I wish I had come with statistics as to how many Kilowatt
hours you require and how much electricity you will use. Then I
could be very effective in my plea that you don't do this. I
would be willing to invest in some miner's caps that people could
wear when they are around the golf course.

Bill Sharp: I am a neighbor and a cross country skier and I
oppose it on both accounts the fact that I like to go out there
and ski without the flood lights. If you must have it you should
keep it you have some 50 watts with cover 4ft high with down
angle. And if you would keep them all that way instead of
throwing the 100 watt on top of the building at 8 and 10 feet
high it would be much more desirable.
I agree with Betty that we set this community up as being energy
efficient and using the Rocky Mountain Institute here to help us
do that right here in City Hall. This would certainly not fair
very well with that.
John Callahan: My wife and I have lived on Cemetery Lane for 25
years. We have brought up 4 children in that area and I have
quite a few comments. When we moved there there was only one
house on the other side of the Cemetery Lane from where we live.
I have always felt that those houses have every right to be
there. But they have gone in there they assumed living next to
green space or in this case white space which is just as
important to this town.
I think we should consider whether it is a good idea and then if
so what is the least impact we can have on the community. The
community being the people who live along there. I wouldn't want
lights coming in my bedroom or living room windows but I do like
the idea of cross country skiing in the evening.
We have several children who do race and when I have been out
there in the evening I thought about using head lamps but you
can't use a head lamp very adequately when you cross country ski.
If you skate it doesn't work well. I have seen the children out
there for the high school. I have picked them up many times at
night. Those children on the high school cross country team race
in the dark. You will see them out there-little bitty twerps. I
think we should think about them.
I think we should think about the working public. wWhen I say
that I am thinking about the kids who work in town who do like to
cross country ski but who can't do it in the daytime because they
are working. I don't think it is such a terrible thing to
consider some low-level lights. That would not be a great impact
on the area.
I think we can avoid nearby homes by just

don't think the public should give up their right because people
choose to move in adjacent to public space.
One of my daughters went to Europe for a year and she skied every
night that the snow was there. Just about every town in Sweden
of any size has lights for the public. This is a skiing town. I
have gone around there at night on the golf course and I noticed
one of the big impacts from Hwy 82. We have giant lights for the
automobile but we can't put lights in for little people. I don't
see why.
The lights would be good for the ski team and will encourage
pUblic participation. I believe it is a positive thing. We have
forgotten at times that this is a ski town basically. We have 90
liquor licenses. Let's do something for the public. If it
doesn't work out, we throw the damned thing out. We do want the
impact to be minimal on the neighbors, of course.
This is extremely well accepted in Sweden, Denmark, Finland--all
through Scandinavia and also Anchorage, Alaska. They are used in
Montreal. I think we should encourage anything that is physical
fitness-minded in this town. Through the years we have always
had a tough time pushing the things that are now taken for
granted by the public. And now that they are in, nobody wants to
give them up. We had a very tough time getting approval of the
cover over the swimming pool. We have that now and nobody wants
to give that up.
We still haven't got a pedestrian or bike path or a cross country
ski path over Maroon Creek Bridge, over Castle Creek Bridge. But
when we get it the public will not want to give that up either.
We have had a tough time getting the mountain hut system. I have
worked in those huts. There too, nobody wants to give them up.
I think we should give the lights on the golf course a chance.
Jasmine asked for further public comment. There was none and she
closed the public portion of the meeting.
Richard: I have some of the same reservations that Hal Clark has
as to visions of stadium lighting on the driving range. On the
other hand I have done night skiing in New England and I really
enjoyed it. So that is a balance to something that I think is a
good thing to have against the increasing light pollution and
energy waste in this valley.
In reviewing the application I think the limited area and the
limited amount of lighting that they are proposing is worth
giving it a try and seeing if people do turn out and use it.

PZM2.19.91
Jasmine: I would tend to agree with you. I think that the fact
that it is a very limited use at the moment--we are talking about
8 weeks maximum and the fact that these lights will only be in
operation until 8: OOpm. But mostly I think that the temporary
nature of it so that we can see in fact what the impacts are
would lead me to look favorably on this application.
MOTION
Richard: I make a motion to approve this application with the 8
conditions recommended by the Planning Office. (attached in
record)
Bruce seconded the motion with all in favor.
SCHILLER CONDITIONAL USE REVIEW FOR AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT
Jasmine opened the public hearing.
Kim Johnson, Planning: Made presentation as attached in record.
Richard: In looking at the plan, is this going to be underneath
the garage? The garden level?
Don Huff, architect, also the proposed resident: What this space
was was a 500sqft ski storage room underneath the garage. It is
unusual in that somebody had poured a structural slab so it is a
nice open space. It simply lacked doors and windows. And Carl
has always been open to promoting this sort of thing. We got a
building permit to actually finish this space and with the
addition of these 2 large windows and a new entry door with the
light the space is fabulous.
Sara: My concern--I would like to see how the policing of who
lives there how that is regulated other than by neighbors.
Kim:

you.
Like most zoning complaints you can only catch the ones you
about or physically see or the ones that are turned in to
Richard: I would like to see that changed. I live in a deed
restricted apartment owned by the Housing Authority. I have to
re-qualify every year. I have to give them my 1040 every year to
re-qualify. I don't see why if somebody is living in a single
family residence should be any different.
Kim: Once an owner chooses a resident to occupy one of these
uni ts then they do have to go to the Housing Authority. But
because these do not carry the requirement that they must be
~'" rented. It is basically a trust situation.

Jasmine asked for public comment. There was no further comment
and she closed the public portion of the hearing.
MOTION
Bruce: I would like to move to approve the Schiller Conditional
Use Review for this accessory dwelling unit subject to the
conditions listed as #l and #2 in the Planning Office memo dated
February 8, 1991. (Attached in record)
Mari seconded the motion with all in favor.
SEYMOUR CONDITIONAL USE REVIEW FOR AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT
Jasmine opened the public hearing.
Kim made presentation as attached in record.
Jasmine asked for public comment. There was no comment and she
closed the public portion of the hearing.
MOTION
Bruce: I move to approve the Seymour conditional Use Review for
a detached accessory dwelling unit subject to the 4 conditions in
Planning Office memo dated February 13, 1991. (attached in
record)
Sara seconded the motion with all in favor.
Bruce: In all of these discussions about attached or detached
accessory dwellings I have been opposed to the idea of enforced
occupancy. But it just occurred to me that even though these
things have deed restrictions which creates an encumbrance
against that property--against that lot--and they have a 6 month
minimum lease requirement, there is no mechanism to stop that
person from leaving that thing empty and only using it as a guest
house kind of thing.
We may not really be adding to our housing inventory.
Jasmine: We have wrestled with this many times. One of the
things that we were concerned about initially was that we were
spending all of these hours threshing out all of this legislation
and that we might not actually have anybody do this.
Now we are seeing that people are actually doing this and it
might be a good idea if we could get some information when we
discuss it again as to how many of them are a situation where we
"'-.., .

PZM2.19.91
do have a Don house. There are a couple of them that we have
heard of that it sounds as though friends of the owners were
actually going to be living in them.
Bruce: There might be a way to do a confidential type of survey
that we send out to everyone of these units that have been
approved and ask for a response without them having to indicate
who they are or what their address is just to find out how they
are being used. Is it sitting vacant or is it being used?
Richard: We could also get a survey through the Housing Office
to find out--OK, so many of these have been approved, how many
have come back to ask for approval for a renter?
MOORES HALLAM LAKE BLUFF REVIEW
SPECIAL REVIEW AND CONDITIONAL USE REVIEW
FOR AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT
Jasmine opened the public hearing.
Kim made presentation as attached in record.
SETBACKS
Kim: Review standards state that all development within 15ft of
the setback from the top of slope shall be at grade or any
proposed development not at grade be approved by Special Review.
I have stated that I am not comfortable with the way that the top
of slope for Lot A was established. For Lot B which is kind of a
convex lot--the land form moves out in a way towards the bluff
before it drops off. The applicant shows 6 points of reference
to create the top of slope in the setback.
The opposite way to calculate it for Lot A is a concave lot and
comes in the applicant shows 3 points of reference traversing
basically the big swail that comes into the site.
The other setbacks on the lot those being lOft front setback on
the west side of the property and if you move the structure which
is my version of the site plan if you move that against the front
setback it in effect takes away most of the non-conformity with
my version of the top of slope.
I have done basically the same thing with Lot B. Moving the
structure as close onto the other setbacks as possible reducing
the amount of encroachment into the 15ft setback.
What staff I s opinion is is if the applicant is willing to re-
,~,,- locate the structures that granting the special review for
- 7
PZM2.19.91
whatever encroachments are left which in the case of Lot B is 1
or 2 feet in the case of Lot A it would still be 4 to 5 feet.
Approving the Special Review given that the structures were in
fact moved back to minimize whatever encroachment exists.
HEIGHT
According to the sketches on Lot B the fireplace is also located
on the most outward edge of the structure. I asked in a
condition that the chimney be re-Iocated so that the tallest part
of the house is not the closest part. It does encroach into the
height setback as does the rest of the structure although the
chimney is more pronounced.
Jasmine: What is the total square footage of the 2 lots.
Joe Wells: Approximately 35,000. Lot A is roughly 25 and Lot B
is roughly 10,000sqft.
LANDSCAPING
The landscaping issue is something that can potentially be used
to mitigate the encroachments.
Tom Cardamone: I am not here to unconditionally support or
undermine what Kim is recommending. I am also here to say that
she was a great help in getting ESA in place. One of my major
goals is to preserve the hillside around the lake. In this case
it has been preserved 100%. That is important to recognize. The
existing vegetative cover exceeds 50% in my opinion.
In my meetings with Julia we have talked
plantings as an enhancement to the property
much as additional screening to ACES.
about additional
and the Moores as
In working with the Moores, Michael Hagman and Doyle when ESA was
just a concept and they were very willing to work with us and
realize the importance of establishing some sort of protection.
The kinds of criteria that I presented to them at that time was
the notion of stepping back roof lines, softening the facades and
using vegetation to break up the outlines of the buildings
without protruding views from the homesites. As far as I can
tell they really did respond to that.
I do have a concern with the way the top of slope on Lot A was
drawn. It is very difficult to pinpoint top of slope and my
opinion was that if we are 'arguing over a few inches or even a
few feet that I didn't want to make that a stumbling block that
would kill ESA and make it an impossible process. But I do feel
"- that this interpretation on Lot A is too big in it's magnitude
--" 8
PZM2.19.91
and I would like to see the Planning Office's interpretation
accepted as a precedent and at the same time I think it is worth
strongly considering mitigating the impact of that and
encouraging them to be 15ft setback with vegetation rather than
moving the building.
Moving a building is a big cost. And from our point of view
moving the building 5ft could--an alternative could be putting a
couple of Spruce trees in there and end up with the same effect.
If indeed the building is only 4ft away from the top of a steep
slope that would de-stabilize it by a basement level excavation
it is worth the Moores considering their responsibility to keep
the hillside stable and think about that.
There is one discrepancy that I caught. There is ground water on
the site that is going to be intercepted by the excavation. We
have come up with a plan that actually will carry that ground
water to a percolation hole to a midpoint on the hillside where
it will be distributed in a surface system. In here I read that
there would be no disturbance to the surface of the hill or
excavation. That is a contradiction.
?: My understanding is that we have been monitoring the water in
those test holes and we notice that in the Spring runoff the
water tends to rise because apparently there is a level of
permeable soil that the waters coming off of the _mumble_.
That is only true for 2 months of the year. For 10 months of the
year that is dry and when Don Erdmann dug his foundation it was
dry. So to say that we are going to intercept ground water when
we dig that hole is really not true.
Jasmine: I think we have a real problem in this application in
that there are 2 issues. One which is the actual visual impact
and the other one which is compliance with the ESA that we spent
so much time working out. It may very well be that from a visual
point of view properly selected and ideally situated vegetation
in terms of mitigating the visual impact of the guest house which
the most pressing.
But there is also the calculation of the slope and I think that
from my point of view that is something that is in addition to
the vegetation covering it up. If we had decided that we don't
want building within a certain number of feet from the slope as
determined, it doesn't matter how you cover it up. And I think
that those are 2 separate issues.

Joe Wells: I would like the opportunity to work on
point that we can resolve your concerns with
regardless of how the top of slope gets defined.

PZM2.19.91
Jasmine: My interpretation is that there was not to be, unless
there was some special and unusual circumstances, that there was
in general not to be development within that 15 feet.
Mari: What we are being asked to accept is that if someone spent
a lot of money in design fees that that is supposed to be
accepted as a criterion for special and unusual circumstances. I
don't really buy that. I am leery of accepting that criterion
for fear that anyone from then on will use it as a precedent.
That does not strike me as being a valid criterion.
Sara: I recall in the process too of reassuring Mrs. Farrish
that her circumstance might be unusual because of her trees and
there were certain restrictions with her lot too. But I agree
with Mari. I would rather see that special review be for special
circumstances.
Tom, aren I t you concerned that every development along Hallam
Lake now will come for Special Review within the 15 foot?
Cardamone: Yes. I think that is a real concern. What is
difficult here is that there won't be any more development
proposals coming forward that were being designed during the time
that we were also designing the ESA.
Jasmine: The point I make is that the screening and the
vegetation and the distance from the top of the slope are 2
different issues.
Bruce: My comment on this calculation of top of slope--I believe
the ordinance says that the calculation is to be made by the
Zoning Officer which I assume is the Planning Staff.
Joe: It says that the top of slope will be established by 3
points.
Bruce: But it also says at least 3. Height shall be measured
and determined by the Zoning Officer utilizing the definition set
forth. I remember us talking about how are we going to pick
those 3 points and the problems that we would anticipate coming
up. And here this is the first application and we are already
there. It seems to me this is a point to be discussed between
the Planning Office and the applicant to work out some kind of
resolution.
Jasmine: The intent of the ordinance has to do with the
enforcement of the ordinance when it comes to a specific
measurement. It is obvious to me that the intent of the
"", ordinance was to be as protective as possible of the environment.
-- 10
PZM2.19.91
Therefore deviations from the measured 15ft were not be
undertaken capriciously and that measurement should be on the
conservative and environmentally sensitive side.
I would tend to think that the applicant could get a definite
sense from the members of the Commission that they would much
prefer to see the building envelopes moved back from the slope.
Bruce: Question to Tom Cardamone: The overall intent of this
ordinance I think you stated was to protect the Hallam Lake
Preserve and to be sensitive to these property owner's rights. I
think I understood you to say that you thought that through
adding vegetation that protection of the Hallam Lake area could
be accomplished.
Now the area that was designed to be protected has said that they
are going to be satisfied with vegetation. Maybe we are
straining too hard to enforce little details of the ordinance
when we have complied with the overall intent of it.
Cardamone: My main interest in re-interpreting the top of slope
of Lot A was not to necessarily change the location of the
building but set a precedent for top of slope. That was my main
concern. That the interpretation is too liberal because then we
are going to start losing the intent of this.
Richard: Essentially what the applicant has done with their
interpretation of top of slope was to use the 2 end points on the
lot. And the middle one just happens to be close to one of the
end points of the line and fall onto it. And if you put the same
interpretation on Lot B the top of slope' which cuts off that
convexity it actually goes right through the corner of the
proposed building.
So if we use the same kind of interpretation on the convexity
that they have used on the concavity they are actually over the
edge of the slope. And of course we need some adjustment either
way on that. But I think they have not done everything possible
including moving the building back. The idea of Special Review
is when we are at a point when we can't do anything more. And I
don't think we are at that point yet.
Sure they have changed the roof line a little bit but I haven't
seen anything else being done in terms of moving it as far to the
other setback as possible. They are pushing the setback on the
Hallam Lake side without being all the way to the lot setback on
the other side and not providing reasons why they can't do that.
So I am certainly not at a point where I could give Special
Review approval to this application.

PZM2.19.91
Jasmine: Under the scenario that
involved moving the buildings back to

Planning Office would measure it?
Kim has suggested which
the other setbacks, what
into the slope as the
Kim: It is like 1 and 1/2 to 2 feet here and here maybe. We are
talking almost--you can't hardly measure it at 1 to 10 scale and
then over here it was like 4 to 5 feet or 3 to 4 feet.
Jasmine: So we can consider that a minimal encroachment?
Kim: And with the condition of added vegetation which is what
the Special Review criteria specifically states.
Jasmine: It seems to me that if in fact we can maintain the
interpretation of the measurement that if the applicant is
willing to make the adjustment I have indicated on these diagrams
then the amount of encroachment that we are talking about is much
smaller and we are still preserving the interpretation of the
slope and the measurements thereof. To me that makes this a much
more acceptable way of dealing with this situation and does not
compromise our position as regards future development in this
area.
Sara: Also more palatable to me would be to say if they agree to
move the envelope that in the approval we specifically say that
this in no way is to be considered a measurement. We do not
agree with the measurement of the setback.
Jasmine: What we are doing is we are saying we are moving this
back that the applicant has agreed to move back the building
envelope as measured with only very miner encroachment and that
by special Review because the applicant has done that the miner
encroachment especially in view of the fact of the vegetation
would then be acceptable. But we are confirming our measurement-
-the Planning Office measurement.
Bruce: What is

Is it where you
Kim: I acknowledge that they used 6 points on Lot B and I chose
6 points on Lot A. From one corner of Lot A to the other it
follows the 78-56 line almost to the T.
Bruce: I don't know that the ordinance says who picks the points
and where they have to be. We talked about whether they ought to
be at the property lines on either end and one in the middle or
whether it be just arbitrary. The ordinance doesn't speak to
that and it doesn't say clearly that it is either the applicant
12
PZM2.19.91
or the staff that picks those points. It seems to me that we may
have some work to do on the ordinance. And in lieu of that, if
the applicant can buy into at least on this application the
measurements as done by staff and leave the buildings where they
are and screen with vegetation then maybe we have got a deal.
We still have to do some work on the work on the ordinance. It
is not clear as to who does what.
Kim: In an earlier discussion with commission it was determined
if we are taking away the ability for someone to build farther
out to the slope, as a concession, we are giving them a greater
ability to move out to the side. That is why I calculated all
these setbacks to see if we could move the structure over.
Jasmine: It seems to me that the sentiment of the Commission
generally is that if the applicant is willing to move the
buildings back as indicated in Kim's drawing that we can re-
write the conditions and go ahead with an approval based on these
conditions.
Jasmine then asked for public comment. There were no comments
and she closed the public portion of this hearing.

Kim: Well, what I was hoping is that you could show mature
vegetation in there with the structures and just get an idea if 2
trees are going to be enough or is it going to be 4 trees. And
with the top of the roof shown. I will look at their landscape
plan and try and make a determination on that. I was thinking
that some Evergreens might be appropriate in order to protect
animals in the winter time.

Mari: Why don't we say liThe applicant shall adopt the Planning
Office's 3 points.
Jasmine: Adopt the Planning Office determination of the top of
slope as shown on attachment B of the memo.
The applicant shall adopt the Planning Office determination of
top of slope--
Bruce: Kim, did you use 3 points or did you use 6 points?
Kim: I used 6.
Bruce: Well, if the ordinance says 3 I think we need to come up
with a way to calculate it on at least 3.
Kim: What is ironic about this case is that we are probably
never again going to see a situation where an applicant is going
to propose development on 2 side-by-side lots. You are right.
It would have been more applicable for both lots to come in with
just 3 points. If you want to say 3 then the 3rd, being equal
distance, I think basically we are getting at this center point.
Bruce: We are worried about setting a precedent. We need to
know what precedent we are setting. If we are setting the
precedent that the Planning Office is going to determine the top
of slope and you are going to use 3 points or 6 points, let's
make sure we know what we are doing. The ordinance says 3--at
least 3. And if we are going to use 3 as our standard then let's
figure out is that just going to be arbitrary to staff or is it
going to be the end points with 1 in the middle equal distance.
What is it going to be?
Mari: I think that we should be working on the ordinance to mean
that it is the staff's call on where those points or how many
points are needed depending on the particular lot.
Jasmine: That's why I
if we re-write 6 to
